Hi everyone! Hope you enjoy the video. This is a fun play between two of my favorite stitches. The Granny Square and C2C. This is perfect for temperature blankets, stash busting or if you have a variegated yarn that you've been wanting to use. This stitch can easily be converted from a square to a rectangle blanket. I hope you give it a try. xx
Hi! I’m doing this right now! Making a potholder 😉 so going to make it double. So easy to follow! Lovely pattern with different colours. Started crochet four weeks ago so I’m new to this. All the best from Sweden ❤️
I have been crocheting about 60 yrs and never did C2C. I decided that the time is now! I tuned in to the first video about C2C, and it turns out to be yours. So glad I did because you explained so simple and with patience. Thank you so much, I now know how to do the C2C stitch. Keeping your video handy for reference.
Hi thank you for sharing I love the idea of no.chains in between, makes it more cosy and warm, I am an oldie crocheting for 50 plus years, but, still love new ideas, I crochet.for charity here in Ireland so these two ideas are great, thanks again, you are Amazing, 🌼🌼🌼
Hi I just wanted you to know I can't stop making these ctc granny blankets I have done scrap blankets and. colour scheme blankets. So it's all thanks to you, I'm addicted to this pattern. ❤❤❤
The best presentation on RU-vid of the C2C. I have been so confused on how to do it from other videos. Thank you for making this easy for me. I can't wait to try this once my other project is done. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for taking the mystery out of making a rectangular C2C granny - continuing to ‘increase’ on only one side; using that stitch marker is genius!
Roz there was another video on this subject and I made a suggestion there that might help some folks. For the final cluster try this. Another way to get a square corner on the last row. chain three, start the first double crochet in the cluster leave the loop on the hook, do the same for the second and third double crochets so you have 4 loops on the hook. Pull through all four loops and draw the 3 double crochets together. End as usual with the stitch at the end of the row. This gave me a square corner. i hope this helps.
This is the best tutorial I have seen for C2C, super simple and so clear. I can’t wait to put this into practice. Thank you for your help this has been much needed to be able to start my granny square cardigan!! 💗💗
I normally do not hit "like" or subscribe on videos, but I am this one! I have crocheted on and off for years. I have been "off" for about 10 years now and picked crocheting up recently again and feel like an amateur all over again! I have never attempted a C2C blanket before and you made it so simple! Thank you!
Thank you so much , I’m so glad you found the video useful. I was like you , left for several years and came back to it recently. I hope you give this a try and enjoy it 🧶💕
I got from goodwill a basket of mini yarns. This pattern is so addictive, the square one. I am continuedly crocheting and growing this blanket. Thank you.
I’m a knitter and I’ve never been interested in learning to crochet,,as I really don’t like how it looks. I worked in a yarn shop for years, became an instructor, but still didn’t like crochet. Now I’m 83 and think maybe I should learn a little. Granny squares are a no no for me, but I’m going to try your tutorial. Thank You so much. ❤️🇨🇦
What a fun pattern!! I made a large square today and it is just perfect. I use 100% cottons and made it for a kitchen hot pad. I really like that this pattern can be made to any size. The color combinations are endless. I determined years ago that if you want a beautiful piece using constant color changes, the tucking-time just has to go with the artistry of your creation. I take my time, relax and know that it is just a part of the beauty. Great video and well explained, Roz. Thank you.💖
Thank you , thank you, thank you - you speak my language on learning and explain so calm and easy , just amazing and worthy or respect to your teaching style - Ian, Aussie crochet learner
This is THE BEST video I’ve seen and I have viewed several trying to get this pattern to a point where I could understand and follow. THANKS SO MUCH! You are a great teacher …
I'm a newbie to crochet, only been doing it for about 4 months & it seems to be a hidden talent - who knew LOL. So I've become addicted to crochet-ing & watching videos. I follow a lot of crochet tutorial channels & just found this today & I'm so glad I did! Your tutorials are easy to understand, easy to see the stitches & you're clear at what to do & why. Def a new sub from me & now I'm off to binge watch your channel lol. Much thanks from a newbie down in New Zealand xxx
Welcome to crochet - it’s crazy how it gets you isn’t it? Once you are hooked, you’re “hooked” ! So happy you found me and that I get to be a part of your journey ! Thank you for letting me know 💕
What a beautiful way you have of explaining! And your voice is so soothing. You explain the "theory" so I don't even have to look at a chart or pattern, and would be able to design further on my own. I'm glad your video popped up in my feed and I took the time to watch it!
Thank you for the video. I needed to make a rectangular shape for a rocking chair pad and mine turned out great. Love the detailed instructions and especially how you have the square and rectangular sectioned out. Very easy to skip to the section I needed. 👍🏽🤗🙏🏽
I just want to say this is a great video it is so nice to watch and easy to follow and you can actually see you like where you’re placing hook. I have been looking for a good granny square tutorial like this thank you so much.
Thanks so much. I really couldn’t anticipate how to build the rectangle and it is so obvious now that you demonstrated it. 😊this will be fun to do. Linda
To play hooky with me Your videos are amazing lovely clear voice i could listen to it all day, great instructions, I love the way you make sure we see every stitch and the way you explain as you go, best I've ever heard thank you so much from a beginner it does help
That is absolutely amazing I have just finished a C2C blanket. And I loved doing it. But now I am ready to try the granny C2C blanket or something with this stitch
This was the first C2C tutorial I watched and I'm thankful to say it will be the only one I need. Great tutorial and explanations! Great pacing and clearly labeled steps to jump from one spot to the next easily. I really appreciate it and cannot wait to go start a new C2C couch blanket!
Thank you for a such a detailed and easy to follow tutorial! I have always been too intimidated to try this but thanks to you I am am starting this pattern.
I’m making this now as a baby shower gift and I’m about 4-5 rows after you start to square it off. I was a little nervous for a few but I see it taken it’s shape and I’m excited! 😊 Thank you for showing this twist to an old favorite of mine!
I So Like your C2C version...and weaving in the ends this way is Beyond Perfect...I have been crocheting since I was 5 and I am Gracefully Walking (maybe crawling) into my 70's and this is the very first time I have seen this. I learn one new thing Everyday and this was it! Blessings and Many Thanks. PS Your color combinations are Wonderful Too!!
Wow! I love this way of making squares! And you are the best instructor I've ever watched - calming voice, slow place, very clear instructions! I've just finished a throw using granny squares, but for the next 2 throws that I'm about to start I am absolutely going to use your method! I'm so excited! And looking forward to more from you! 💗💗💗💗💗💗
@@PlayHookywithMe I'm just about finished a square using cotton for a dish cloth.! I'm really liking how fast it is to whip up and how thick the cloth is!
I love the C2C stitch for blankets. I've made 3. I don't really like the Granny stitch however, I'm living this Granny C2C and I'm going to make one. Subscribed. Thank you.
@@PlayHookywithMe I’ve found it difficult to follow tutorials that hold them with their index finger up. I can’t see/understand where they’re putting their stitches sometimes. I’m working on decreasing my c2c throw now. Thank you for this very well made and instructional video.
Ooo! Love this! I am going to use this to make a prayer shawl so I will stop before the decreases. Your video was perfect! And thanks for the weaving in ends bit. I usually just crochet over the ends, but your way will hold them more securely and I will be doing that from now on.
@@PlayHookywithMe Thanks. I saw someone's blanket on Ravelry and they led me to your link. They were making the blanket but had not gotten to the decreases and I saw a shawl! Started mine last night. This is very addictive! I will be using this a LOT! Thank you for sharing it!!
That makes so much sense,i wish i had known this before,and yes it does look the Same on both side. Thanks so much and i look forward to your other videos 💕
My rectangular blanket with shades of blue, white and gold is growing quite beautifully. Thanks for your great tutorial. I made a sample beforehand and noticed that it was very taut along the sides in the increasing part. Not the same on decreasing. I decided to chain four when starting a new row and it seems good. I think I have a tendency to chain to tight. Hopefully it will be ok when decreasing but maybe I could return to 3 chains... 😂
That’s wonderful and I love how you were able to work it out and adapt the chains to fit your tension. I have to do this as well! Let me know how the decreasing goes! 👏🏻💕
@@PlayHookywithMe late reply. Finished it a while back. Overall a great piece and it made a huge impact on the recipient. Next blanket I’ll pay more attention to my tension and return to three chains though. It ended up fanning a bit too much on the increase part so it ended up a bit “droopy.” But I’m a beginner and it’s fun nonetheless. And I’m learning all the time!
Hello everyone. My first time watching. C2c scares me. Lol. It looks so hard to do. But after watching this I am going to try it, you make it look so much easier and you explain it so well. Thankyou so much. Xx
Hello, I just found you and wanted to see how you did this different c2c. Love it and I’m so excited to see someone that holds her hook like I do. I try the knife way but find the pencil way is easier. I want to find me a yarn needle like yours.. Thanks for your clear teaching style. God bless you.
Thank you so much, Julia. I have tried the knife way too but I’m much slower that way. I had to order the needles online - I haven’t been able to find them in stores. They are called Susan Bates Finishing Needles (Amazon) 🧶💕
