Probably the sweetest RU-vid I've ever seen. I have cro hooks but not here with me!! I just found a cro hook lap blanket... It's so amazing.. I'm a knitter that crochets and many other fibre arts but cro hook and cat hair are familiar to me
I love this video ❤️. Super clear explanation , straight to the stiches , no much talk other than what we need to know. I gotta try this ! Happy crocheting 🧶❤️
I used this pattern years ago, forgot how to do it. This video is so helpful I'm glad he even showed how to do the finishing stitch. I use this pattern for coasters, got a request for more. So I had to find a video, this was the best one!
@@chismalu Because it is a tutorial and teaching someone to do this for the first time can be a bit confusing for one who is learning this who does not do tunisian crochet.
Hi Mikey, I have a question.. you chained 10.. are you always going to have an extra stitch in cro-hooking? So if you chain 20 you will end up with 21? In regular Tunisian once you ch 10 or any # you keep that amount of stitches . Just wondering... Love the stitch!!
actually, one point to doing the same color is if you want to do a piece all one color that was significantly wider than the hook you are using. you can work sections off while still working a row on.
It should be just as easy as crocheting left handed. After you make your chain, you would put your stitches on from the left. When it is time to slide your yarn to the other end, you would slide it to the left, turn your hook, and then start with your second color of yarn on the right side to take the stitches off the hook. Kim Guzman, aka crochetkim, might have a video or two for doing this left handed.
I love this technique!!! I learned it years ago. I use it to make reversible afghans. I love to use a variegated on one side and a matching solid on the other side. My latest project used a red, white, and blue for one side and a solid white for the other side. I think if you had used at least one side a solid color and one side a variegated that it would be easier to see. Even 2 solid colors would be better than 2 variegated yarns. Check out this video Crochenit Bedspread Technique which shows you how to make a larger item than you can fit on your hook. ru-vid.com?search_query=crochenit+bedspread+technique
It would be much easier to see if you used just two plain solid colors instead of variegated ones. I had trouble seeing your stitches because the variegated yarns didn't make the difficult to see what you were doing. Good tutorial otherwise.
