    OMG! I did it, Rita!! I'm 45 and I've always wanted to learn to knit or crochet and just never have. I am so full of appreciation!❤ It's appreciative and a zest for more. Thank you so much, you're a great teacher. xo

      Right! I've watched so many and this is the 1st video where her "excessive talking " didn't bother me one bit! And she was the 1st to explain how to make this blanket to where I'd understand it including a straight forward answer on how many skiens it takes for what size you want. Instead if giving some weird formula that I don't know how anybody understands

    the tutorial starts at 8:30 :]
    what you need is your hands and:
    4 skeins for a lap throw
    6 for a twin or single bed
    8-10 for a king or queen
    (those are sort of estimates)

    So awesome! I'm so excited to start my new project. I must admit I was a little scared to try this; but you made it look easy. So thank you for that. I was taught to crochet with my fingers when I was about seven years old. They had to retrain me how to crochet with a hook. I never could get the hang of knitting. So this is so nice. After I get good at this, I'm going to teach my grandkids so we all can have a good time together making something nice instead of video games and TV!!!! Thank you so much 😊

I made a few mistakes and was able to fix it without having to take the entire blanket apart. I have a slight arc to my first row I think I made it to tight to begin with but for a first try thanks to your CLEAR instructions I call it a Success.

    I have looked at this yarn so many times. Now I am going to have to try this. I crochet and the only knitting I do is with the Kniffy Knitter loom which I love. I even use them to teach my second graders how to ‘knit’. I watched the replay and didn’t catch if you said how big a 4 ball blanket would be-approximately. Thank you for your channel. I enjoy it so much although I have to catch the replay.

    Do you think a5 year old could make this simple project? Also, I’m going to order from Cricut but I don’t see your link so you can get credit for it. This isn’t the first time I haven’t seen your link on TH-cam. Is it not being posted anymore or do I need to go to Facebook to find it?
