This is the BEST tutorial on TH-cam for these chunky hand crochet blanket. And believe me when I tell you, I’ve watched about 35 of them. Yours is the easiest explained, cleanest and most professional looking blanket out there! Can’t wait to get started on mine!! Thank you!!
I've watched your video about 10 times. Thanks for sharing this craft. I couldn't find #7chunky yarn but I did find #6 chunky yarn can I use that instead?
I agree 100% it is the best tutorial for these blankets on youtube to date. Easiest to comprehend and follow along. You are great at teaching & demonstrating 💞💕
I agree with the prior comments about this being the best tutorial for these chunky hand crochet blanket. I too watched several; however, this one is truly the best! Thank you!!
This is by far THE BEST DIY how to for this Blanket. I tried to do this blanket twice- ripped it out again and now following this clear and easy instruction which adds the little details you actually need to make it work. Thank you for this.
I like to add the extra stich on the end of each row just like you did as it brings the rows to even sizes. I'm glad I'm not the only one doing it and thinking it's weird. Thanks for the video.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I am a teacher and do this as a stress reliever. I have watched and rewatched this tutorial about 7 times. You are great at what you do!! THANKS AGAIN!!
I've seen others connect different color yarn or extra yarn with a lighter... I absolutely love the idea of the thread method better 😂 I'll be making my second blanket soon!❤
Bethany, my daughter and I watched your tutorial last year. We both made chunky blankets. Well, here I am getting a refresher for the season. Thank you so much for this easy-to-follow tutorial. Cute fur baby too🙂
@@CraftwithBethanyI’m thinking about black and black with crème. Last year my daughter and I did pastels (baby blue and lilac). Looking forward to the results!
@@marquittamcclendon6017 if you’re on Instagram be sure to follow me there and send me a DM of a photo when you’re done. I’d love to see what you create! 🩷
I Agree!!! This IS the Best tutorial! I am so glad I found your tutorial! I really feel confident that I can do it. Awesome job! 👏 Beautiful Blankets. After I complete my first one. I will definitely send you pics!
this was an awesome video for my beginner self! i got so into it and ran out of yarn lol so cant wait to finish this! shout out to hobby lobby for supplying the yarn, i work there ;) after i finish my first blanket everyone will be getting blankets for christmas lol
Bethany im so happy to seen ur finger blanket turtorial. I been seeing so-many. And i believe urs is the most easieat until i get it done. Love the colors your picked. I have the pink an cream color im starting with. For my soon to-be grand-daughter due in few months.
My first blanket , watched other videos but they didn't explain it like you did. I work at Hobby Lobby and I have told customers that they need to watch yours for the best instruments.
Making this for my very 1st grand baby. I started one the traditional way and realized it would take too long to make. I can make him 3 different ones with this method. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Appreciate you
Thank you Thank you Thank you… I have been watching videos for an hour and was so confused. But then your video was just so easy to follow and understand. I was about to give up. Definitely going to subscribe and share.
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I just finished my first one. Took roughly 5 hours. I had 15 skeins and ended up being 70x80 size...bit bigger than I anticipated but still love it.
@@jessimae5286 ya know I’m not sure the exact loops for that size (tensions are all different) but I would just use a measuring tape for your first row and stop when you get to that size. My previous blanket used 9 skeins and made a 50 x 60 size.
This is an amazing process. It looks much like crocheting, but my guess is that it would be much faster since each link is much bigger. Thank you for this amazing video!
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!
Thank you Bethany for this video. I just made my mother a lap throw for her birthday tomorrow. It only took me about 3 hours. I was surprised at how fast it grew. I used 5 skeins of yarn and just enough of the 6th skein to finish off the top. I can’t wait to make myself a larger one. Thanks for sharing.
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 :)
Aww April thank you for the kind words and positive feedback. I’m glad you’ve found my video helpful and I hope you make many more beautiful blankets. They do make amazing gifts!
You did a great job on this video. I took a class to make one of these but it wasn't big enough. So I bought more yarn, took apart the first one and used your video to make a new one. It is yellow, dark green, light blue and orange.
Oh that makes me so so happy!! If you share a picture of your finished blanket please tag me so I can see it. @craftwithbethany on Facebook & Instagram & Tiktok. ❤️
I really, really enjoyed this video, have wanted to try this type of knitting, I think this is easier from older knitters who’s fingers and hand make it hard to use needles, I would think when combining two ends, it would b3 easier for older knitters to tie together instead of trying to work with the thread, either way, this is great, thank you.
24:01 Hi! Just wanted to say your instruction was great! I just finished my very first chunky blanket and am so happy with the results. Going to make some for Christmas gifts.
Thank you so much for your patience. Because I too have watched many videos and they were kinda confusing your video answers questions I have before or as you go along. 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.
Hey Kim! So glad you found this video helpful and I appreciate your feedback. My giant cutting mat is 60"x30" and purchased through Amazon. If you go to the description of this video there will be a link to my amazon storefront where I save all my favorite sewing, crafting and organizing must haves.
I may have missed it but did you end up with a final size for the 9-10 balls of yarn? Wanting to make one for my wife for Christmas. I figured if I can tie fishing knots all day I can pull this off haha.
You can totally pull this off and she would love it! I don’t have a finished measurement bc it is dependent on loop size and how wide you start your blanket. For a lap size do 6 skeins about 32” wide.
Muito lindo o seu trabalho. Estou no Texas e minha sogra me levou pra comprar os materiais ontem pra eu fazer o meu primeiro cobertor…Gratidão por compartilhar tanta sabedoria. ❤
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.
I love your video and thank you. My mother had been in the nursing home and I wanted to make a blanket and twin size blanket. Could you suggest how many things of yarn? I would need and how wide and long thank you.
Hi im new to this i came across your video i made my first blanket lol but the ending didnt look right i see your video is just what i needed Thank You
Love your video a lot, but having trouble finding the section where you said the measurements would be in the description below the video. I don't see a description with measurements of the blanket anywhere. Thanks for your help!
I made mine the width of my table with is 60 inches and I did even amount of rows for each alternating color. You can make yours however big or small you like. The technique is still the same.
Instead of thread I use dental floss as its stronger and lessens the risk of breaking like thread. Another off-topic craft trick using dental floss to sew gathering. Just zigzag stitch over the dental floss and pull to the desired gather.
Fairly new to this, I've made 2 blankets so far but still watching tutorials to improve. Some people skip the first loop going back, I noticed you don't. Have you ever tried it that way?
@@CraftwithBethany the people I've watched who do this say it does keep it straight plus it makes a braided edge. If I try it that way I'll report back LOL
What was your colors for this throw im familiar with the ivory, but what is the name of the color blue. I really enjoyed watching your video. Thank you .Missy 😊
I'm interested in making a blanket I found this idea by some one who is in the Great Amish movie he's making some blankets it really sparked my interest♥️♥️
Thank you for this 👍🏻. I’ve had similar yarn for months and have tried to crochet, without success, four times!🙈 Thought you might be interested to know that the yarn cost £10 per skein in the UK, so I’m only using 6 skeins to start 😀
Wow that is more expensive. I will say if I make another one I will probably make it half the size. The yarn stretches over time and it is so big and chunky. It’s great but can be a lot of blanket sometimes. Haha
Mine doesn’t so make sure you aren’t pulling the loops along the edges and corners tighter than the loops on the rows. That will definitely cause in to curl in. I’m glad you enjoyed the tutorial. Thank you!
I’m going to order some yarn and try this. Your video is so easy to understand. I’m doing the sage and ivory first for my living room. If I can successfully make it I’m going to try one for a topper for my bed. By the way about how many loops is 60”? I don’t have a sewing table like yours.
Honestly it varies so much by how big or small your loops are as to how much yarn you need. There’s not a specific formula that can be consistent for everyone.
I do not use thread to connect my ends I burn one tip using a hand lighter and then as it burns I connect the other to it so it connects and when it cools you can pull and won't come apart.
So I bought 5 and 5 of each color and want it to have more stripes. Would I just rotate after every few rows to the next color or finish a color? It’s my first time doing one of these
@@ImGods_Princess. honestly that’s totally up to you and how big you want your finished blanket. Also how loose or tight you make your loops. I’d grab a couple and start testing it to get a starting measure for the size blanket you want then you can figure out how many more skeins you need.
@@CraftwithBethany I was wondering if the bigger sized yarn means you need more or less. Like the one you made for instance……if you used size 6 would you have bought more or less of it? Thanks for replying so quickly btw 🥰
I would look up the standard size of a queen comforter to when you start your blanket keep measuring your first chain until it’s the width of a queen comforter then start adding rows measuring as you go until it’s the length of a queen comforter.
Great question: I recently washed my blanket on a gentle cycle in my washing machine with cool water and mild detergent. I did let it fluffy a little in the dryer but then laid it out to air dry the rest of the way. It did great and still looks fabulous!
Size will vary greatly by how big for small you make your loops. And over time it will stretch out some. I recommend getting the width you want with your first chain and then keep adding length until you are happy with the size. This large blanket covers my queen been.
It varies so much on how big you want the blanket and how big or small you make your loops. Keep measuring as you set your initial chain to set the width of the blanket and then go for as long as you desire.

Should the yarn be washed first? Can these blankets be washed in the washing machine?
N need to pre wash your yarn. And yes you can wash and dry your blanket when done. I recommend following the care instructions on your yarns

Can anyone break down for a baby, full, queen, king, and cal king? how many rolls I would for each?
Honestly it varies so much by how big or small your loops are as to how much yarn you need. There’s not a specific formula that can be consistent for everyone.
I do not use thread to connect my ends I burn one tip using a hand lighter and then as it burns I connect the other to it so it connects and when it cools you can pull and won't come apart.

Does the blanket keep its softness and fluffy after washing?
Yes!

So I bought 5 and 5 of each color and want it to have more stripes. Would I just rotate after every few rows to the next color or finish a color? It’s my first time doing one of these
You can swap colors at any point you like. It looks most seamless if done at the end of a row.

@@ImGods_Princess. gotcha… smaller the yarn the more you’ll need to make a blanket the large size I made mine with the bigger yarn.
great video!!! thankyou:)
Thank you for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it!
I am looking for measurements to make a chunky blanket for a queen bed, can you help?
I would look up the standard size of a queen comforter to when you start your blanket keep measuring your first chain until it’s the width of a queen comforter then start adding rows measuring as you go until it’s the length of a queen comforter.
I'm making my first one currently. It's for my granddaughters birthday.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!❤ 23:30 .
How do you wash the eternal bliss yarn bee?
Great question: I recently washed my blanket on a gentle cycle in my washing machine with cool water and mild detergent. I did let it fluffy a little in the dryer but then laid it out to air dry the rest of the way. It did great and still looks fabulous!
for an average sized winter blanket how much yarn would be needed
What is the best size yarn to use for your first blanket, small, medium, or large
The yarn I used is linked in the description.
Thank you! Great tutorial!!!!
You’re welcome ☺️
Hello, great tutorial! What is the size of the finished blanket?
Size will vary greatly by how big for small you make your loops. And over time it will stretch out some. I recommend getting the width you want with your first chain and then keep adding length until you are happy with the size. This large blanket covers my queen been.
Was going to ask the same question. 😊
How many loops and skeins for a baby blanket ??
It varies so much on how big you want the blanket and how big or small you make your loops. Keep measuring as you set your initial chain to set the width of the blanket and then go for as long as you desire.
This is great, thank you so much. New sub here.
Thank you ❤
How long does something like this usually take you?
Depending on the size just a couple hours. I do it in one sitting start to finish.

I like the way you explained everything
You made it very easy to follow
So thank you 😊
😊 13:17 I’m making it nowwwwwwwwwwwwwww such grand technical work
Love it
Aww thank you!! ❤️
Does it matter what type of thread to combine the colors? e.g. elastic thread, embroidery floss, sewing thread, etc.
It doesn’t but I used regular sewing thread bc it hides well in the chunky yarn.
Hello is there a specific type of thread?
