Thank you so very much you are definitely delightful I really enjoyed your video and just love the pattern and I am making a cushion cover with Caron Latte Cake and it’s gorgeous thank you so much x
Good morning, Melanie! It's a pleasure to have you here. ☺️ A cushion cover? I LOVE the way you think! That's an awesome idea! Let me know how it goes for you. Thank you for watching. Have a blessed day! 🌄
Thank you very much for this amazing tutorial! I bought the Caron Late cakes as I loved the yarn, then I had to work out what to do with it! LOL Your tutorial has given me the inspiration and motivation to make this blanket. Thanks again 🙂
Happy Saturday 🌄 😊 Thanks for watching, and I'm glad that you enjoyed the tutorial. I have 3 other tutorials using Caron Latte Cakes. It's one of my favorite fibers. 😍
I think this is a great tutorial. When you have rhythm going, it's easy to lose count, especially when alternating stitches or using different types of yarn. It's important to look at dye lots so your getting the same colors. I've been crocheting since I was 5 (I'll be 50 this month) and actually taught my 3rd grade teacher how to crochet when she was expecting. As much effort, thought, money and TIME we've put into the craft, I have a deep appreciation for it. I usually buy them from thrift stores so they're saved from the landfills. Time shouldn't be wasted.
Hello and welcome! Sorry for the late response but I've been really busy with work my daytime job this week. I just wanted to reach out to you and say thank you for giving feedback and that I'm glad that you thought this was a good tutorial. It sounds like you have years of experience and that is really cool. Do you only crochet or do you knit as well?
Excellent tutorial..but.. I wish you had used a smoother yarn. Some of us have serious vision issues.. I love the latte yarn, but it is a yarn I probably can’t use. You have a reslly nice way of giving your instructions. ❤
Thank you for this tutorial. I think this was great as you encountered and showed us what the everyday person runs into and that was great. Please do more. I just started my afghan with my new Caron fuzzy yarn that I bought today.
Hi Joyce 👋 Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts on this tutorial. So glad you enjoyed it. Crazy thing is that I actually was supposed to be recording a brand new tutorial last weekend but I have been sick with the flu. I'm dying to record but have yo wait until I can get rid of this annoying cough. Hopefully I'll be well enough this weekend 😌
Hi,beautiful pattern and video. i bought this yarn on sale at Michaels by me and chose your pattern to do,I'm so glad i did.its coming out great and loved your tutirial,its so easy to do. Thank you.
Hi Jennifer 👋. Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts. I'm so happy to hear that you're enjoying how it's turning out for you. You just made my day. 🥰
Love your video, and all the great crocheting tips.i learned alot and the yarn looks lovely. I was always worried about trying to crochet with fuzzy yarns but you make it look very easy to do and the stitches fit the yarn great. Thank you, and pls do more videos.😂
Heyyyyyy there Jennifer! 👋 Thank you so much for watching and sharing your feedback. I promise I have another tutorial on the way. Right when I was supposed to make a new tutorial, i caught the flu. As soon as im done with this crazy cough, I will be recording a new one. 😊
Yes definitely as someone else said and trust me I've learnt the hard way too, always check the dye lot number when you're purchasing your yarn! This tells you that all the ones that have the same number were made from the same batch of dye, but another lot number may produce a different looking shade of colour blend, even if it's called the same name, it is surprising how different they can be sometimes! I just recently bought some Caron latte cakes in the shades blackberry and coconut cream, they're so pretty! Thanks for showing us your blanket as it gave me a chance to see what my garment will look like and how much definition shows through from the pattern. I've been thinking of making a shrug with the Suzette stitch or the Wattle stitch, you've really inspired me even more to get going on it asap, thanks! 😊
Good morning! Thanks for watching. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and experiences with the dye lot numbers. Also, thank you so much for the compliment. I've been working on 3 projects with Caron latte cakes. I just completed one. I hope to record it this weekend. Have a wonderful day
@@pinkyhooks4939 You're welcome, hope the information was useful. I wanted to ask you please, what size hook did you use for your main blanket, not the grey one but the one that you'd already made? I went back to the start of the video but you didn't mention it there, Thanks
I made the exact same mistake with thinking i was using the same colour for a small project that I did. Surprise 🎉the one side of my project was more muted than the other side. Good job I noticed it after I was finished 😣🙄😄 Lesson learned 😊 Thank you for taking the time to teach the pattern 🙏🩷🙏 🇦🇺
Good morning Dorothy! This is when I started learning about matching the lot numbers. It's so funny how when you've been doing something for so long that there's things you still don't know. Lesson learned. Thanks for your feedback and watching. Have a blessed day. 💝
Hi… I just discovered your channel, and enjoyed the tutorial very much… You have a great voice, and you are a good instructor. I like this simple pattern…. Thanks for paying attention to thst snesku little turning chain. I thunk thst’svehst confuses beginners, and causes uneven ends if rows. I remember how much netter my work got when I “ got” how omportsnt the tutning chain ytulu is. I absolutely loved the Claret Caron Cake… it’s the color I need for a great niece’s blanket///Her mommy is dressing her in neutrals…no baby colors…
Hello Sandy! 👋 welcome and thank you so much for sharing your feedback. I am so glad that you enjoyed the tutorial 😊 That turning chain can be a little bugger at times, can't it? I still struggle with it but with every project I think I get stronger in the craft. Again, thank you for watching and I look forward to showing you more 😊
Hi Shonya! I haven't used a latte at all. I loved that yellow though, my favorite color! I haven't made that stitich and I like it with the bigger hook! It could be something I'd try! Crazy how yarns change color, right. Take good care!
I watched this video while crocheting on my current project. I really like this stitch. And it looks lovely with the latte cakes on camera. I want to give it a try. Thank you for showing us the stitch....and that is okay to get frustrated 🥴. Now, the strawberry fields blanket is complete and beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️
Hey Barbara! I'm so glad that you liked the stitch 💙 it's pretty cool and fun to do once you get into it 😊 Have you ever worked with latte cakes? What are you working on if you don't mind me asking?
@@pinkyhooks4939 I have worked with latte cakes. I made a cardigan from Annoo here on TH-cam. And a few smaller things. It's great yarn. I am currently working on yet another cardigan! This one is a granny square design by make and do crew. I love granny squares. My granddaughters helped me choose the colors and the order of the colors. Sometimes, when I'm looking on the computer, I see something I just have to make. This was one of those things. ❤️❤️❤️
@@pinkyhooks4939 this cardigan pattern has me putting them together very differently. It's fun. In and out and around the corner. Up the street. Seriously though, it is done continuously., With double crochet. Also, I really loved a blanket I did a while back with Mikey from crochet crowd. It was a unique and fun way. I will see if I can find it and share with you.
I know who Mikey is because I am actually subscribed to that channel which is the Crochet Crowd. But I will still appreciate it if you can find that particular tutorial. They have so many on there that I used to spend hours scrolling through their playlist LOL
Is this it? Caron Latte : 3 cakes Hook : K Ch even number + 1 to desired width Row 1: sl into 3rd ch from hook; * hdc in next ch; sl in next ch *; repeat to end; ch 2; turn Row 2: * sl in hdc [not the sl from the end of the prev row; rather, the 2nd st,which is the hdc]; hdc in sl *; repeat across; ch 2; turn Row 3 and on: repeat row 2 until desired length
This was a wonderful stitch to use with that yarn! You're absolutely right about stitches getting lost in the "fuzziness" of it. But, the stitch almost pops more because of the yarn. Sounds like it's the size of a "lapghan." ;) I also LOVED that you switched to a different yarn later (although you did use the wrong sized hook). :P I tend to crochet tight as well, so your tips about trying to keep your tension loose were very encouraging. I've never heard of this stitch before, so I will definitely try to use it for something. (But, not until I get finished with my grandmother's afghan!) ;) ;) I'll keep you posted on what I decide to do with it. EXCELLENT tutorial! GO PINKY GO!! :D LOL
Good morning Gwendy. Thanks for watching. I'm glad that you liked it. Do you use Caron latte cakes? I love them 💗 i don't know what I was thinking using that hook on that yellow yarn. 😆 I was so tired because I just got home from work. Oh well , at least it's done. Lol. Man, I can't wait to see the afghan yoy are working on. A lapgan? I've never heard that term before but I will use it from now on. 🤗
@@pinkyhooks4939 I've never used the Caron latte cakes before. I've just used the Caron Simply Soft. I have "sensory issues" so I try to keep the yarns I use as soft as possible. (Even the Red Heart Super Saver is a bit rough for me.) But, I don't have a lot of income, so I usually use whatever I have "donated" to me from those who know I do yarn stuff. :) Unfortunately, it's usually just one MAYBE 2 skeins of a color, so I end up doing a lot of "motif" work. Our church's women's organization does a lot of charity work. We've done "Lapghans" for nursing homes and assisted living facilities on many occasions. They work especially well for those who are in a wheel chair so that they don't drag around on the floor and get caught in the wheels.
Hi Julie 👋 It depends on how big do you want it to be. Are you making it fir an adult or a child? The one that I did, I started off with a chain of 126 I believe and that was a baby.

Hi Shonya and Ruby. Hope your having a good day. Love caron latte cakes thanks to you i have a few. Thanks for the tutorial.
I always check for the Lot # to make sure it's all alike. The pattern is very cute in that latte yarn. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Beck for watching. I've never checked the lot # before. Thanks for passing on that info. 😊
I had to learn to check dye lot #s. Your blanket turned out great.
Perfect timing. I have been looking for a blanket pattern for Latte cakes. This is perfect!! Thanks!

Happy Monday Anita! Yes, you can start with 197 because the crunch stitch takes multiples of 2 plus one for the base chain. 😊

Hi Pinky...im new to your channel. Dawn Aaron sent me over. Nice to meet you. Hugs from San Angelo,TX. 💖🧶👋
Hello Adel 👋 dawn is a sweetheart 💕.
To make a blanket with 3 balls of this wool. How many chains do I start with, please.
Hi Julie 👋
It depends on how big do you want it to be. Are you making it fir an adult or a child? The one that I did, I started off with a chain of 126 I believe and that was a baby.
@@pinkyhooks4939 thanks I wish to use the 3 balls of wool I have.
Julie that is totally understandable that you want to use the three cakes that you have. Let me know how it works out for you😊
Hello, what size are u using?
Hello there! I used a size K hook. Is that what you was asking about? 🥰
what size blanket will 1 roll make??
Hello there! I'm guessing you could get a 40 x 50 blanket. Use a simple stitch that won't take up so much yarn and you should get a nice lap blanket.
@@pinkyhooks4939 thank u, simplest stich being?
