Beautiful blanket & in one of my favourite yarns too, which I use probably more then any other. I love the size too, I am planning to make at least two wheelchair blankets in 2023 so timing couldn’t be better.
Bonsoir , je suis tombée sur vos videos par hasard et je suis ravie, qu est ce que c est beau tous vos projets que vous nous ofrez en videos avec des points sublimes et tres facile de compréhension merci ...vraiment ...bisous made in france...
I love this pattern, I have already made a throw size and a baby blanket and on to another. I love how when it's finished it already has a border. Thanks for sharing Bonnie and have a blessed Sunday 🥰🙏
@@birgitta.jonsson I used yarn I already had which was Lion brand pound of love and I used 3 balls of that. I used a 6.5 crochet hook and starting chain was 184. It measures approximately 56 by 60 ... hope that helps you.
Beautiful! I have knitted basketweave before, but I really like the crochet pattern. My 83-year-old fingers find crocheting a bit more comfortable. Thanks for sharing.
Bonnie, Thank you for posting this tutorial. I’m going to make this with the yarn I got for Christmas! Happy New Year & many blessings to you and your family. ❤️
Thank you Bonnie. Your directions are so very nice to follow. I plan on trying this pattern in the future. Again thank you kindly. Blessings, Mary from WI.
I'm really liking this pattern I did not think I would get it this fast but I cought on and I can not beleave how nice it is looking thank you for sharing
I really love the basket weave stitch. Thank you for the stitch multiple and border. I’ll be using worsted instead, I have very little chunky yarn ❤ This would be beautiful for Mother’s Day or spring birthdays.
@@minnahumble2294 I’ll probably use a 6.00m. But it also depends on the yarn. If using something like Red Heart Super Saver, that yarn recommends a 5.5m hook. I would still use a 6.0m. Basket weave stitch tends to be a little stiff if the hook is too small. Might be a good idea to make a tension sample first to see what hook size works for you
Bonnie I’ve tried this blanket several times. Somehow I always get it mixed up. So frustrating. But you’re pattern is so easy! I’ll be back to do this…I have another project that I’m trying to finish! Thank you so much! I an do this!
That is beautiful! I've subscribed and saved the pattern. My Mom is currently 88 yrs old, 89 this July, 2024. I plan upon making this. Fingers crossed. I know i can. Your tutorial was easy enough for a rookie crocheter like me. In Advertently, you're helping me to make her something very special. Thank you so much! 💓
Thank you so much! It's so much easier than it looks. I've always loved this stitch but never even tried it. I'm so excited to make an afghan now. Thanks again!
I didn’t get this at first but I didn’t stop til I did as it was easy as it is called and I am almost finished with it now! So appreciate the pattern! 0:15
Thank you MaryAnne! Probably sticking with this intro for a while! The other music previously used was being used by other channels (it was free), so I decided to change it to something no one else would be using.
OMG BONNIE ….. THIS IS AWESOME 👏 🎉 I CANT WAIT TO GET STARTED ON THIS BLANKET , I HAVE 2 GRANDBABIES COMING THIS YEAR AND THIS WOULD BE PERFECT 😍…… THANK YOU 🙏❤️ AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎆🎊🎈
Hi Bonnie I just found you. I live in Canada. I just watched a few of your videos and enjoyed them. You speak clearly, explain everything well, displaying the project at the end is brilliant. Most importantly there is no music which can be a distraction. I am in my 70’s and new to crocheting but I am giving this blanket a try. I’ll let you know how it goes. Cheers.😊🇨🇦
That’s beautiful 🥰 I like think sometimes one color is just beautiful, especially with a beautiful stitch definition like this. I love your cables. I have so many wips going now to complete but I didn’t even pick my hook up for 4 months after my brother died. I’ve just been doing very simple things. I purchased 4 skeins of that Caron o go in the new ombre yarn. They consider it a 5 but I’d say 3-4 weight. I would like to make a cardigan with it. I guess they consider the fuzzies to be a 5. It is a beautiful ombre. I haven’t found a pattern in that yet. Thank you for sharing and doing the tutorial. They really help. 🥰❤️❤️❤️
So very sorry to hear of your loss Wanda. Yes, you do have to use your own intuition instead of the numbering on the yarn labels. I hope you find a special design for your yarn!

Bonnie, I love your basket weave pattern & your directions are great. I'm working on the lap blanket now. I have a question: I'll be making 2 more after this, but for queen size beds.

Would be hard to estimate not knowing your gauge and all, but here's a foolproof idea: crochet the width you think you will need in chains, then add several more. You can then undo any extras you will not be using. Here's a video to show you how: th-cam.com/video/6c_tKmmfn6Y/w-d-xo.html

Since you use a size K hook for chunky weight yarn, would you say a J hook is a good choice for worsted weight? I normally do fine with recommended hook size so personal tendencies are not a factor for me. Also, what was the finished size of the blanket in your video?
Hi, just bought the wool and about to start. Just checking when you start in 4th chain from the hook at the beginning do the first 3 chains count as a double crochet? ( is it 111 double crochets plus the 3 chains you skipped or are the 3 chains you skipped counted as a double crochet?) thanks.

where can we download the instructions
How much is the measurement?
Would a 74 st starting chain be okay for a baby blanket?
It really all depends upon several variables: yarn size, hook size, desired size of blanket, personal crocheting tendencies, etc.
