Hi there, I bought 85% cotton 15% polyester yarns in 3 colours to crochet a mile a minute bedspread for my queen size bed. My problem is each one of my first three strips vary in length. However each FIRST finished length of "1st pat of pattern" has 144 rows. How on earth are they all in different lengths. I am so disappointed. I hope someone can assist me. Tx Sue
Why do you act like that? It is really goofy. We would all appreciate it if you video instructors cultivated a professional manner and kept your instructional video intros to Hi, I'm so&so and I'll teach you x,y,z. Then do it. Thanks. Hope to see improvement next time I tune in.
@@stevemalan7264 it's been awhile but nobody seems to be answering you. Perhaps your tension is changing as you crochet? Mine sometimes changes a bit if I keep working after I'm tired. Also, it could be the yarn. Yarns sometimes relax as we work, esp as the skein gets smaller and looser. Have you tried crocheting on a table top? It keeps the yarn from stretching due to the weight of the project as it grows. Hope this helps. Happy hooking.🙋
I never saw a mile a minute blanket in person and only learned about them 3 yrs ago. Now I think I will finally make one! Granny squares are common in my area.
Years ago I made a mile-a-minute blanket for a new nephew (he’s 18 now and still loves it). My dad remarked at how lovely it was, so I made him one in his size. He had to move town for a job while the rest of us packed up to join him later, and he took that mile-a-minute blanket over the dozens of my mom’s gorgeous quilts. Now that my dad has passed on, this is one of my sweetest memories of him. He always appreciated and encouraged my crochet work. 💕
Oh that is so sweet. I think males appreciate our work very much, both bc they understand the effort that goes into the work and bc their girls made it esp for them.🤗
When my late husband was going to therapy after his heart surgery, i made mile a minute afghans. Easy to make, only 2 colors of yarn. Was mindless and good for my therapy. Think I made 4 of them. Think I need to make more. Thank you for reminding me of this wonderful pattern.
Your intro was adorable! This is going to be a cute blanket. I think I’ll coordinate the colors by month..so maybe a light blue & white for Jan, red & pink for Feb, dark green & light green for Mar..etc..😀
Your intro stop animation is too adorable! This looks like the perfect year project. Something to look forward to each month. Guess I need to do some yarn shopping.
My grandma did mile a minute afghans, and she showed me, there was a book all about different mile a minute panels it was fun but not for everyone because of the "holes" as they call them thank you for sharing this tutorial God Bless you
I used to do lots of them years ago when I first learned to crochet. I had several books but lost them in a fire 20 years ago. I have recently been looking for more patterns so this is great!

Ok Jayda I'm getting ready. Got the crochet hook and 2 balls of yarn. I remember that 6 or 7 years ago I so on TV Mile-minute strips. Ok I ready to follow you. So I will have a blanket by Christmas.
I did several mile-a-minute blankets back in my college days (+25 yrs ago)and still have one as a WIP. This makes me want to finally finish off that blanket! I’ve just rekindled my passion for all things crochet and knit these past few months. Life happened and things got to busy for doing my hobby. I will definitely be doing this CAL. I’ve been wanting to do a CAL for a while. Glad to have found your channel.
Hy my beautiful Jayda, you are wonderful, you have a lot of ideas that delight our eyes and heart, thanks for all the jewelry you worked are wonderful. Thank you once again
Ya know what’s so nice about calendar Blankets? It forces me to slow down and enjoy it. Idk if other crafters are like this but as soon as I start a project I rush to finish it because I want the “finished product” here already. And by the time I’m done I have cramping hands and I’m in pain. This forces me to go slow because no matter how fast I stitch, I’m not gonna see the finished product till December. So between anxiety and other things, I’m truly thankful for a project like this. Thank you so much. (I also need to cheer myself up because my favorite show “Anne with an E” won’t be having another season so I’m bummed) Thank you Jayda and Mr. InStitches God bless ❤️
I have to say it, Jayda I just love you, you inspire me with your energy, attitude, beauty, & work. I also love how you play roll on some of your videos, your an amazing woman and thank you for all you do, much love...stay safe
Super excited to get started on this later today!! Such a great way to use up scraps, which will fantastic for clearing out my yarn boxes and making room for more in a few weeks.
I just posted on a two year ago C2C granny square session of yours, I appreciated that tutorial!!!!!. Your presentation, your opening for this tutorial is creatively adorable!!!!!! I'm loving this mile a minute CB blanket, your work is fabulous.....Thanks again for the simplified, easy, specific, thorough instructions...Stay safe everyone!!!!
Hi from uk im loving all your videos mum and i has stared this year doing your 2019 folk art blanket as were in our 3 lockdown and im going to start this one first thing un the morning you actually learnt me to crochet about 3 years ago so i thank you from the bottom of my heart
This will be my first calendar blanket. Im so excited and hope I can learn any news stitched. Thanks Jayda for all you do and y'all always cheers up my day. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!!
Fantastic video. My Mom use to crochet this pattern, but she passed away before she was able to teach me how to do it. I’m glad I came across your videos. THANK YOU.
That's a great idea! Think I'll do that too so I can give one to my son. He's hoping to find an apartment by summer to move into, so this can be a special blanket for his new apartment!😉
I have never heard of doing a crochet monthly project that will become a blanket. Where have I been??? I am so excited about doing this project!!! I am going out today and choosing my yarn. Thank you so much!
Oh my goodness. What a great way to start this new year. It’s looks beautiful. I will use up the rest of my stash on this. It’s so beautiful. Thank you. I am guessing it will be all colours. It’s fantastic
I have enjoyed doing your calendar blankets for the last three years. I have done mile a minute before, but didn’t know that you could do it with different stitches. I always learn from you Jayda.🤩
I am so glad to have found this on my Google news feed. I haven't made a blanket in a few years, I have just been knitting. I have completed the inner colour in such a short time but can't avoid my bed for any longer, lol! I am excited to be crocheting again. And a strip a month still gives me plenty of time for my other UFO's I have lying about. Thank you!
Such an easy pattern. I will have to do this because I have tons of scraps of yarn and this will help me use them all up! Can't wait to see the next addition to this one. Thanks for being you 🌹♥️
Well decided I'd join in this years blanket I did the country scene one( my grandson loves it and he's 14). Last year I did a temperature one, it's very very long lol but it's 2020 fitting lol. This looks fun and I have lots of scraps.
I was just thinking the other day when you were going to do a mile a minute blanket I am so excited to get started!! Thank you for your chanel I have told so many people about you when they want to learn how to crochet! Your awesome keep doing what your doing!!
Yay! Thought I had missed the start of the calendar blanket for 2021. I'm going to use different colors for each month: white(snow) and dark blue, Feb- Valentine's red and pink, March - light blue and blue(windy), etc.
Hey Jayda, I am knew to this page, I have done a lot of crocheting with your tutorial and I have learned a lot of knew ideas. I am following you with this years 2021 calendar Blanket and I have Januarys done and am looking forward to seeing what February will be. I am glad I found your tutorials, Heather Farrell
@@JaydaInStitches I have the first panel done! Yay! 😃😇💛 I am so excited! Hubby says will it fit a queen bed. I say idk. How about I make two each month and see!
Mrs. Jayda, my husband and I Love Love your show. I've been trying to do a temperature granny square blanket but I love this idea better! My husband says I can have no more yarn until I use my stash, which this project will help with!
It”s November, and I just saw the November strip…and came to see the beginning…Somehow, I missed the whole thung.. Probably because I was in the middle selling my house..and had just moved into my small apartment… Great pattern. Later… Thanks to you, Jayda, I just started my first MAM baby blanket.. usinfvthisvgrestvdtitch… I’m loving it..👍😍
Hi Sandy! It's not going anywhere, so if you want to give it a whirl, don't feel rushed...maybe a new blanket for your new home!! I hope your move went well 💗
Working on my first strip. I'm excited to see what the other future strips will be. For me personally I don't care to have my strip all over the floor as it gets longer. Luckily I had seen Jayda's video on making utility straps to tie up or hang items. Quickly making up a longish version I'm using it to tie up my gradually growing rolled up strip as I'm working on it. Thanks Jayda!
Thanks for sharing and I always wanted to learn how to make one and I will make one soon and I gather all that you can buy scrap yarn to make it. And God bless you and have a nice weekend.
I absolutely LOVE mile-a-minute and was excited to see that it's this year's calendar blanket! I've already got an idea of using it to include the style of a temperature blanket. Yes, that means I go big or go home lol Thank you Jayda and Mr Stitches for all you do
This would be a great way to start a möbius twisted scarf because it would make a lovely centre panel, or just to make a scarf with about three of those panels the desired length. Also they would b e good for making hooded scarfs. Oh and of course blankest, wraps and shawls! Thank you.
Thanks so much for this video I been struggling to chrochet a blanket with stripes this is a fast and beautiful project as I got 3 granddaughters thanks from South Africa God bless keep safe.
I've ordered my yarn, and will start my blanket as soon as it arrives! Can't wait to see how it works up. I've shared this with a friend, and she too, is going to make the 'mile-a-minute' blanket! Thank you from the UK 👍💖👵
I wish I had seen this back in January. It looks like a really fun crochet project to do while I'm in-between projects. I really love the shell stitch and have already made a few things using this pattern so it'll be an easy one to work on!
What a fantastical surprise for this Friday. I learn so much from you. Never heard of a mile a minute pattern. Thank you! 💜🥰🌺 See you soon!!! Stay safe 🖖🏻
This is so amazing. I’m actually going to use this pattern to make a scarf for my daughter. And then I’m going to use up all of my leftover yarn to make a blanket can’t wait to get started, thank you.
I love the intro with your darling little “kids”!! They are as sweet s you are, only Jayda would think of such a cute thing! Watched your mile a minute blanket, I am going to do my first strip today, I am sure that it will nice when it is done. Thank you for another great crochet idea. Bobbie Harrison from Canada
This will be awesome Jayda!! I need to get into this. I don't make a lot of blankets. I tend to loose interest.. But I love all of your patterns... And your smile is contagious...
Hi Jayda you are such a ray of sunshine in n these times loving your projects. Just learnt how to make African flower and hexagons so amazing your tuturiols are great and so easy to follow. I am from the tiny island of Malta a big hello from here.🤗
Yay! I just recently came across the term “mile a minute blanket,” and was planning on looking it up on TH-cam! Crafty minds think alike! Here I go... starting another WIP!! Thanks for all the hard and creative work you and Mr. Institches put into your channel!!! I’m always singing your praises in other groups on FB! I hope you’ve gotten some followers from them! Happy New Year to all of the Institches Fam! Stay safe and stay crafty!!!
Your intro totally rocks! Mile-a-minute is a great pattern, and I've got RHSS coming out of my ears. Yarn has taken over my house, and now it's going to take over this afghan. lol
I did one of these years ago! I'm deciding which yarn to use up.. Thinking of going with the "colors of the year" gray and yellow, or maybe just a rainbow, to destash...
I've never joined a CAL before and this seems fun! I make afghans using my grandma's old stash of yarn and then raffle 2 of them at Christmas to family members. It's only January 19th and I'm on my 4th blanket, lol. I just make them throw sized. I love to crochet!
How timely this is. I was searching yesterday on how to make a mile a minute blanket. I love this! Thank you so much! I wanted you to also know that my 17 year old granddaughter has been learning to crochet and I told her about your channel and she loves how you teach! You reach many different age levels. Thank you so much again!!

I’m thinking of doing this in the birthstone colors of each month. Will be for my nephew and his wife.
I love mile a minute blankets. You don't see those much any more they were popular back in the 70's and 80's. Very excited for this.
I never saw a mile a minute blanket in person and only learned about them 3 yrs ago. Now I think I will finally make one! Granny squares are common in my area.
I don't even like granny squares. They scare me.

The beginning animation is absolutely ADORABLE I love it

Great idea!!
That’s exactly what I thought to do. I think it will work up beautifully!
Omg!!! I thought about those same colors for the same months!!!😅
👍👍👍
Great ideas for colors! Would you share ideas for April, May and June? Thank you! (Color challenged.)
@@virginiamorris7079 try birthstone colors.

Always want to learn a quick way to use up my knit thank god for your teaching this to use 😇
I love the way your video comes on. I will be doing this blanket also.
Thanks so much 😊
So, looking forward to this Mighty Mile CAL! Love the intro, too...!
Thank you Vicki!
Thanks for sharing and I always wanted to learn how to make one and I will make one soon and I gather all that you can buy scrap yarn to make it. And God bless you and have a nice weekend.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching Anna!
I look forward to your intros! Those are cute characters! Going to try this, thanks.
Thank you so much Vina!
I absolutely LOVE mile-a-minute and was excited to see that it's this year's calendar blanket! I've already got an idea of using it to include the style of a temperature blanket. Yes, that means I go big or go home lol
Thank you Jayda and Mr Stitches for all you do
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching Susan!
Yay! I've been so excited to do a calendar blanket with you!
Wonderful!💗
I'm going to be an overachiever and make 2 or 3 at a time! I'm so ridiculously excited 😂
This would be a great way to start a möbius twisted scarf because it would make a lovely centre panel, or just to make a scarf with about three of those panels the desired length. Also they would b e good for making hooded scarfs. Oh and of course blankest, wraps and shawls! Thank you.
Absolutely!
Great job Jayda!! I love this idea. I've made 4 of your calendar blankets...2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020.
Hi! Thank you so much 😁 This year's promises to be just as much fun 💗
Thanks so much for this video I been struggling to chrochet a blanket with stripes this is a fast and beautiful project as I got 3 granddaughters thanks from South Africa God bless keep safe.
Thank you for watching!
Love this stitch, thanks!! Be Blessed and safe. 🙏💕🤗😊
Thank you Paula! 😊
I've ordered my yarn, and will start my blanket as soon as it arrives! Can't wait to see how it works up. I've shared this with a friend, and she too, is going to make the 'mile-a-minute' blanket! Thank you from the UK 👍💖👵
Wonderful! Welcome to you both 😁
❤️ Now I have to figure out what colors to use for this year's blanket!
I was personally thinking birthstone colors . Though you can do seasonal colors, whatever that happens to be where you live ❤️
@@masuganut2082 The sampler blanket of 2018 I did in birthstones. Thinking sunflower colors to match my dining room and put it on that wall.
@@mamabenzing5872 sunflowers are my favorite!!! So I think that’s a wonderful idea! Not that I’ll see it but I can picture it and it looks amazing 🥰
Wow 🤩, love the cartoons presentation!
Thank you 🙏
Thank you for watching 😊
Got so enthralled watching i forgot to hit the like button and had to come back. So I'll just watch again.
* giggle * Thank you Linda 😁
I wish I had seen this back in January. It looks like a really fun crochet project to do while I'm in-between projects. I really love the shell stitch and have already made a few things using this pattern so it'll be an easy one to work on!
You can still start now and catch up. These pieces go so quick!
Wow this looks great 👍 I’m going to do this one I think I’ll use blue to start 😀 thank you for your great ideas 💡 love your show x
Thank you for watching Vicky!
What an adorable intro I love stop motion animation with the crochet characters thank you
Thank you Susan 😁
What a fantastical surprise for this Friday. I learn so much from you. Never heard of a mile a minute pattern.
Thank you! 💜🥰🌺
See you soon!!! Stay safe 🖖🏻
Hi Su! They're not quite as famous as granny squares, but they're about as old ;) And they're super stash busters!
This is so amazing. I’m actually going to use this pattern to make a scarf for my daughter. And then I’m going to use up all of my leftover yarn to make a blanket can’t wait to get started, thank you.
Sounds great! 😁
I’m really learning a lot from you. I have 13 rows never done this before and I’m proud of myself lol
Hi Bethenny, that's wonderful! Thank you so much for watching :)
Love your sunny personality! Thank you for the lovely tutorial. I can't wait to see the final result!
Thank you so much for watching!
I love the intro with your darling little “kids”!! They are
as sweet s you are, only Jayda would think of such
a cute thing! Watched your mile a minute blanket, I
am going to do my first strip today, I am sure that it
will nice when it is done. Thank you for another great
crochet idea. Bobbie Harrison from Canada
Thank you for watching Bobbie!
Congratulations on your new home. Can wait to start this calendar blanket project
This will be awesome Jayda!! I need to get into this.
I don't make a lot of blankets. I tend to loose interest.. But I love all of your patterns... And your smile is contagious...
Hi Debi, thank you! :)
Going to make this for my Grand-Daughter due in August, I love it, thank you Jayda for everything, stay safe and keep well.
Congratulations Susan! Thank you for watching 😊
Love this blanket. Many thanks!
Thank you for watching Pat! 😊
Hi Jayda you are such a ray of sunshine in n these times loving your projects. Just learnt how to make African flower and hexagons so amazing your tuturiols are great and so easy to follow. I am from the tiny island of Malta a big hello from here.🤗
Thank you so much! 😁
Yay! I just recently came across the term “mile a minute blanket,” and was planning on looking it up on TH-cam! Crafty minds think alike! Here I go... starting another WIP!! Thanks for all the hard and creative work you and Mr. Institches put into your channel!!! I’m always singing your praises in other groups on FB! I hope you’ve gotten some followers from them! Happy New Year to all of the Institches Fam! Stay safe and stay crafty!!!
Hi Shelly, thank you so much 💗
Your intro totally rocks! Mile-a-minute is a great pattern, and I've got RHSS coming out of my ears. Yarn has taken over my house, and now it's going to take over this afghan. lol
* giggle * Me too! This is definitely a stash blanket for me this year!
I did one of these years ago! I'm deciding which yarn to use up.. Thinking of going with the "colors of the year" gray and yellow, or maybe just a rainbow, to destash...
Hi Jolene! Since I'm using up what I have...I have a feeling this year's blanket is going to be more like a rainbow 😁
I've never joined a CAL before and this seems fun! I make afghans using my grandma's old stash of yarn and then raffle 2 of them at Christmas to family members. It's only January 19th and I'm on my 4th blanket, lol. I just make them throw sized. I love to crochet!
Ohmygosh, what a neat idea!!
How timely this is. I was searching yesterday on how to make a mile a minute blanket. I love this! Thank you so much! I wanted you to also know that my 17 year old granddaughter has been learning to crochet and I told her about your channel and she loves how you teach! You reach many different age levels. Thank you so much again!!
How Wonderful! Thank you BOTH so much for watching Brenda :)
