This really is a great video showing a clean and neat way to do the chain at the beginning and to add the rows as you hand crochet each row! I also really love the way you have joined the ends with thread. Just tying a knot in a yarn this thick makes it very easy for the knot to slip. I just repaired one for my daughter that someone else had made and it was in olaces where it had only been single knotted! Thanks a bunch for sharing! I already knew how to hand crochet the afghan but your tips were very helpful!

I'm a bit late to this chunky blanket craze, but I recently took a class that taught you how to make one. Honestly, I wish I'd found your tutorial first. The very best part is how you finished the blanket. I absolutely LOVE how that turned out. They used a different technique that wasn't nearly as flattering. I am SO tempted to take my blanket apart and make it again. I'm giving it to my boyfriend for Valentine's Day and I want it to be perfect. I'm going to make my boss one for her birthday in March and you'll be on in the background. You have a new subscriber. Thanks :)

This is fun. I’ve never seen it done before . As a knitter I would like to give you a tip. When you add a new color at the end of the row, just make a loop with the new color and keep going. When you come back and loop through the second color on the next row, then go down and tie the two colors together.

Also want to know where you got your mat from my favorite color. The mats I have purchased have always been blue or white. Thank you so much also a neighbor gave me 2 bags of this yarn where they had started a blanket before your video I didn't know how to make this so I took it a loose. As I was doing that I found your video it took me 2 days to take this apart. Now watching your video I will make it the way you have except I have Grey, burgundy, and a light pink. Good luck to me deciding the color scheme. I just love your videos. Kim the crafty Nana.

The blanket will stretch over time depending on the tightness of the loops and yarn you are using. Try to keep your loops tight as you go. It’s not going to be a perfect square because it is such chunky yarn. I’m glad you are enjoying the video! Thank you for your feedback.
