You should be so proud of all 3 blankets. You just popped up in my feed. I guess I'll stay for a while 😎🧶
New Subbie! Olivia! These blankets are absolutely beautiful! From a distance, all the colors make them look almost Aztec in appearance, absolutely gorgeous! I’ve also been looking for some easy patterns for tons of scrap yarns because I have tons! Lol! I was thinking about doing a wave pattern for my scraps but looking at yours, wow! I too love textured patterns as well. Thank you for sharing with us
I think you did a beautiful job on your scrap blankets. I love making blankets too. It gives me happiness to give someone a blanket.
Hi Leilonni! Thank you so much. It sounds like we share a love of making blankets. They are so very rewarding and keep us so cozy! Thank you so much for visiting and commenting! 💜
These are all so beautiful! I’m so surprised how cohesive they all are.
Thank you! Seeing all the colors make me so happy! And I used up A LOT of yarn! =D
My 1st time watching and I have enjoyed it. I am going to make a scrapy yarn blanket. What a great idea. Thank you
I love all of your blankets. They are just beautiful. You have inspired me to make a scrap blanket.
I love making blankets out of scraps. I’ve made many baby blankets that way and donated them to charities like Knit for Kids.
this is one of my issues i went crazy buying yarns when i first got into knit and crochet and ended up with alot of yarn and not knowing what do do with it ..i love all those patterns i think i might try the first one thanks for sharing :)
Yarn is just so beautiful- it’s hard to resist - especially when we see them in colors we love. Please do share if you jumó in to make it! It was a fun pattern. Thank you for visiting! 🙏🏽💕
These are an answer to a prayer!
I love the way the stitches change.
It’s not a boring repeat.
That spice of life blanket is FABULOUS!!!
Ophelia, your personality will have a Jewish mother from New York so comfortable in her skin, she could let her guard down and not worry one bit about anything! Imagine a pitcher of room temperature Pepsi, having a bunch of ice dumped into it! The way the Pepsi effervesces all over-is your personality!😁🤭🤓! Keep up the great work on the YT channel. I'm a 58 year young guy whose been crocheting since I was 5 years old, &, I'm left handed-crocheting left handedly backwards-left-to-right! Doug
I think they’re beautiful! You’re an inspiration to me, and now, I’ll use those yarns in my closet!
I also love making scrap blankets and then giving them away
Hi Olivia I just found your channel and I really enjoyed it. I think your scrap blankets are my favorite that I’ve seen love!!! Them. I understand how it feels when your kids want something you made lol ❤️❤️❤️
99% of my yarn goes into hats I donate to our local WIC office. For years, I would scrap yarn to make scrappy hats. Some of the color combos were strangely unique. Now, need to give afghans a try.
Thank you for the ideas. Beautiful blankets
Thank you! 🙏🏽💕 They are still keeping us warm. I really need to make more because my yarn stash is growing again! 😂
So happy to have found your video! You’re so right - just use the yarn! You’ve given me that last push as I’ve been looking at The Spice of Life pattern (and thinking of getting more yarn 😮😮!). Nope I will use the lovely colors I already have! Oh and I love your use of black yarn with the lighter colors - great pop! Thanks again!
Love your stash blankets 👍thank you for sharing. I love your shawl also BTW. I’ve made scrapghans over lockdown one of the positives I took from the Covid pandemic 😊
I love your blankets and I must confess I like scrapghans more than regular patterns. My daughter sent me a picture of a loose crocheted long beach skirt she would like and I think that Spice of life you showed would work for that. I was ill in 2020 and 2021 and I made 20 blankets and gave away 19 of them. Thanks.
My all time favorite is a scrappy blanket! I've made loads of them, and I love all kinds of color. If someone seems to like them, I'll give them one. Thanks for sharing.
This is the first one of your videos I've watched, and I love your energy and enthusiasm.
Those blankets turned out great! Even the one with your "ugly" yarns. Lol
Very interesting blanket s you have made with your scraps!😢 14:30 ❤❤❤
Hi Olivia gorgeous blankets I. Love them.. I do scrap blankets. Too love them.. Happy crocheting from Ireland 🍀🍀🍀
I am very excited to hear about other people's interest in handiwork I love the yarn from different countries I love alpaca silk bamboo yarn I make clothes for children who love to get the things I make My children are not here in the world so to fill in the gap I give to them and I love to get a smile that's all God blesses me for it
I Love, love, love all of your stashbuster blankets.
Thanks a lot for this tutorial 💖
I had some very old yarns I thought I would make blankets but I gave them away to my sister in law's brother's wife. Because I wasn't getting time to use and wouldn't for this year. But looking at your blankets I will give it a try. I hope so. Love all your blankets
Hi, Olivia! I just discovered your channel and happily subscribed. I LOVE making scrappy blankets! I’ll have to try some of these patterns. Thank you for sharing! 🐣❤️🌈
Hello! Thank you so much for visiting and subbing! It’s so fun to make scrappy blankets isn’t it? And it feel amazing to use up our beautiful yarn too. If you try the patterns I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. I see you have a channel so will have to come visit! xoxo 💕☺️
@@makeupfunwitholivia1833 yay!
Very pretty blankets, I would love to get rid of all my scarp yarn 🧶thanks for sharing. God bless
Thank you very much! I'm a new entry. Hugs. Rita from North Italy
I am a first time viewer of your channel. I am in the middle of going through my yarn and planning projects. I have a friend that gets a lot of my odd balls and scraps.
I’m pretty sure they are spirits orbs floating around the directions they take are very precise I am a new follower love your blanket
I love making scrapghans. They always come out so beautiful
Hi Olivia I'm new to your channel, just found you by TH-cam recommendations... anyways love your scrap-ghans the colours works wonderfully together.. pinks and purples are my faves too🙋🏻♀️💜🌹
All 3 lapgans are beautiful. I'm hoping to make one soon.
The Spice of Life blanket was my very first crochet project and I absolutely LOVE it! I'm already working on a second one that is going to be my sister's Christmas gift, and I'm also going to download the Spicier Life pattern. Sandra's projects always turn out SO pretty and she has awesome tutorials on TH-cam to help you out with all the stitches.
I also enjoy making textured blankets
Its gorgeous. I haven't made a blanket yet but you inspire me to make one
Loved your blankets how pretty and cozy ❤️❤️
First time watching you thanks for sharing
Hi just found you and subscribed! So happy I found you. Love all your blankets 😊❤️
Great video and patterns! Thanks for sharing!
Yes, I've done scrapghans and I love to make afghans and blankets. I just get all my leftover yarns and in no particular order and crochet till they run out. No colour control. Your blankets are gorgeous!
Your blankets are jazzy and fun. Best of all they are used.
Very lovely. Thank you. May your channel grow!
I’m inspired! Thanks 😊
Those afghans are beautiful.
New subscriber, thanks for sharing these beautiful blankets.
Thank you for this video, it’s really helpful :) I want to declutter my craft stash and using up all the odd yarn balls is a must 💕
I love the third scrap yarn the Best
Thank you for the ideas.
Love your video. I have made several stash buster blankets but never from a pattern I will have to check out your links. Great way to use up those one and two skeins of yarn. Last year I made crazy amount of scarfs from left over yarn and after I gave some away still have too many left for another round of giving.
I love these blankets thank you for sharing, the first one is my favourite ❤️
I liked the 3rd one the best !!
Beautiful projects!
Love your energy and blankets. You have a new subscriber. I crochet to donate to the needy and love making scrap lap and pet blankets. Never thought of incorporating different stitches in a project. Great Idea! 👍
Hola! Que bonita blankets.......lol my spanglish......new sub...like your channel and colors and your personality! ♥️💋😗
Hello! I really love all three blankets 🤩 It has given me some great ideas since I never considered that a skein or two really work as a scrap blanket. I’m going to add this project to my “ to make “ wish list. Thank you! 🧶💕
I love ‘‘em too !
Oh my goodness
I love these and that's a fabulous idea 💡 different stitches ❤
Thank you so much for sharing
I love your energy ✨
Precious!
I just found you, and I love your bubbly personality ❤ I'm absolutely going to make a scrapgan !
But I have to comment on your scraf. I love it so much it looks so BOHO 😍 DO you have a tutorial on it??
I'm a New subscriber ❤
All three blankets, as well as your shawl, are lovely. Maybe I'll get inspired to use some bins of yarn that I've had for 15 years!
Better late than never...I tripped into your crochet channel today and I will subscribe today, too! I really enjoyed your video!😊(👵me)
I really like the last super colorful blanket! I'm about to do a stashbusting project with my blue yarns. How did I end up with so much blue yarn??? Lol very fun!
On the Spicy one, what size hook did you use? Assuming you used #4 yarn, like Red Heart. Thanks for your help.
I've seen Sandra's blanket spicy patterns I love them both. I'm going to make one or both. Great job. Enjoyed this 😊❤.
I was watching a crochet tutorial when ur vid popped up & I'm so glad I watched! I've been wanting to scrap-ghan myself but was unsure where to start! BTW, without tryin to sound like a creepy weirdo crocheting mum from New Zealand lol you are a very beautiful woman 😃
Hi, great ideas for scrapghans! I always try to over plan my scrap hand but yours look great! I even think your third one was my favorite!
Great video! Check out the Fruity Knitting podcast. It's like a PBS show, it's such high quality. I love it and I don't even knit!
Wow your blankets are gorgeous. I don’t think I have the patience to knit a blanket
What I would like to know, is.
How do you make a piece of crochet with good even tension, when you use different yarns?
No one EVER addresses this point, they just prattle on about their thoughts, and other useless information.
Thanks for the video and what to do with all my DK weight yarn. It’s funny how your video popped up just when I have been thinking what to do with my stash.
I bought years ago on Black Friday sale and has been sitting in my closet for ten years! I do wish I had more colours but I think they will work great together. Thanks 🙏🏻
Beautiful. Good ideas for prayer shawls or Linus Project items.
funny, but your least favorite is my favorite! I have done both of Sandra's blankets, spice of life and spicier but in the DK weight and they are small. You have inspired me to do them again with my worsted weight yarn which I also need to stash bust.
I need to make a scrapghan for my daughter But plant
fibers only for this vegan. Also, when you post dimensions, please also post total weight.
Your blankets are lovely and you can actually see how warm they must be compared with acrylic, which is actually what I have most of. I particularly love your shawl and it would be great if you could please share that pattern. Is that using a few of your favourite colours in your stash, they look like they are “your” colours? Great video.
I am a new subscriber. Wow really nice colours of the blanket. Thanks for showing us . I am Janice from Malta Europe in Mediterranean.
I just rewatched this video. Love it. Are you still crocheting?
I happened upon your channel today for the first time. I made the Spice of Life afghan and look forward to checking out some of the other scrapghans you mentioned. Thanks for inf
My pleasure! Thank you so much for watching! 🙏🏽💕
I love the second blanket rainbow pink stripe.. what kind of yarn would that be? So pretty 😍 💗
Thanks for ideas. I will be starting one soon.
I love the scarf you are wearing. Can you share pattern.
I subscribed looking forward to more crochet ..😊
I agree with you. My stash is mostly odds and ends. I will try to do what you recommend to make a useful project.
Thank you I’m gonna beginning my early this year ❤😂😂
🌻🌻🌻Wise words! Thank you!!!🌻🌻🌻
Very beautiful 👍 do you also have a tutorial of the scarf you are wearing, this is also very nice
Beautiful work
Did you see your orb at 7:12 on the video
I guess someone else loves your Afghan too ❤
olivia love your blankets which border did you do on the spicer life one they do a different border.
Love the blankets and love your scarf too . Do you have a video on how to make it? I need to learn how to follow a pattern 🤔
Beautiful blankets! You have been an inspiration to me today. Thank you! Just hit the Subscribe button. Looking forward to sharing time with you!!!
Hi Shelley! Thank you so much for your comments! They mean a lot. I have moved my yarn videos over to a 2nd channel (Fiber Fun With Olivia). I’ve been gone for a bit but hope to come back soon!
Every time I think it will be the ugliest blanket it turns out being one of my favorites
Hey Olivia, Love the blankets. Thanks for sharing the links to the blankets, I am looking for a pattern to make a blanket for myself.
Thank you Shari! Please tell me how your blanket comes out. I’m sure you will love it!
They are all nice I’m not that smart making I make mistakes in making patterns n stitches 😅
you also can make cardigans and long coats
- with the same style
Hola Olivia, I just watched this video and fall in love with the way you presented yourself and subscribed- your scrap blankets are so beautiful- I made a couple myself. Question please tell me what size hook have you used and how many chains? I love them thank you. Blessings
Hola Liliana, thank you so much 🙏🏽 very kind of you. Oh my no recuerdo what hooks I used but I will look it up in my notes and make sure to share when I come back in my other channel (FiberFunWithOlivia) where my yarn videos moved to.
@@makeupfunwitholivia1833 thank you Olivia , I’ll take a look to the other channel ❤️
What is the yarn and pattern for the shawl you have on. It is so pretty.
Your blankets are SO BEAUTIFUL. I love your third blanket most. I subscribed today on your yarn channel. I only discovered you today. I have done the Dahlia Scrapghan last year. 🧡💛
Just subscribed! I love to crochet & knit too.
Did you just use the yarn until it ran out or did so many rows and switch yarn?
HI Olivia...just found you! Boy do I know what you mean about LOTS OF YARN and STILL BUYING!!! I will try this idea....will even do one with lots of 'cakes' that I have!! YARN BANS are way to hard to follow!! ha!! THANKS for the GREAT IDEA and NO BOREDOM!!!
