I'm just crocheting a "magic" potholder and came across your video. As soon as I'm finished I'm going to make yours. Your video was very well edited. I understood everything and could see your stitches perfectly. Thanks for your video.
Thank you for giving such clear and easy to understand instructions! I watched this video several times and am now off and running making my potholders! Great job!
Very well edited. Great close up shots, great explanations and tasteful background music. Very rare to see such a well executed video. Thanks for the hard work.
Loved making this! Thank you for the very clear instructions & close ups of the stitch. It was tricky to start & awkward to hold while crocheting, but I will definitely use this pattern again!
You should have 27 stitches in every row if you follow this pattern. I usually count the stitches in the first few rows to make sure I have the same amount of stitches in every row. Hope this helps! :)
Hi Lara, thank you so much! 💓 I have used almost the whole skein of yarn, which was 119 yds (109 m). It's worsted weight (#4) and 100% cotton. You can find more details here: mycrochetspace.com/extra-thick-thermal-potholder/
Hello!!! Is it one colour on one side and the other colour on the other side? That would look awesome! If you like to post it on Instagram, tag me @my_crochet_space! I would love to see it! :)
This looks absolutely beautiful! I’ve never made a potholder before I am a complete beginner! But a friend and I are going to be making potholders to donate to our church’s Thanksgiving food drive bags this Thanksgiving so we’re starting now! How much yarn does it take to make a pair?
Thank you! :) I used one skein of yarn which is approx. 119yds for one potholder. You can find more info about materials and the written pattern in this post: mycrochetspace.com/extra-thick-thermal-potholder/ If you are an absolute beginner, this pattern might be a bit challenging to start with, as it's an intermediate-level stitch :) But you've got plenty of time until Thanksgiving to practise, so completely doable! :) If you like the thermal stitch, you might find the single crochet a little easier, and it looks beautiful, too; you can watch it here: th-cam.com/video/pVEwIKCuGV0/w-d-xo.html. Have fun and enjoy learning the thermal stitch!
@@tammymccaslin4787 Oh good! Yes, the tension shouldn't be too tight. And I only turn my work vertical to work on the first 5 or 6 rows and to make the first couple of stitches as it's easier for me to see the stitches in the row below. But after that I hold it normally as the stitches become more visible from above. Hope this helps! :)

If you're using 4-ply yarn, I'd recommend doubling it to make it thicker and using a 5mm hook. Simply chain until you reach the desired length for your potholders, then continue to work until you have a square shape! :)
Hi Beth, I'm not sure about how to do it left handed, but I think it should work. In the beginning, the first couple of rows may look like a rope as you are working on gaining the thickness. But as you continue, starting from row 4 or 5 you will start seeing the progress! Try to make at least 10 rows and it will look defferent. Also, it's easier if you use bulky cotton yarn and a bigger size hook (H-8/ 5mm) Let me know how you go! 😉
This video is very good but I don't understand why she stopped it right after doing the first stitch of the second row, especially when she commented later how tricky the first few stitches were. That makes no sense to me. She should have continued the video at least midway through the row for the first rows so that her viewers could see where to place the hook.
Hi Kate, thanks so much for your feedback! That's a good point and I will definitely take it on board to improve my future videos and make it clearer next time. Hope you still could follow and make a potholder! 😀 Let me know if you have any questions
Hi Tiffany, I have used Fiddlesticks Finch cotton yarn. It's 119 yards in one skein and I've used around 3/4 of a skein to make this potholder. The potholder is around 7" square. If it's for a blanket, try to use a bigger size hook so the stitch is not going to be as dense and you may use less of the yarn! :)
I’ve made a few blankets with a single crochet thermal stitch and have used 7 10oz rolls of yarn! This is 125 stitches wide and the length was for taller people! Basically turned out to be a lap blanket that’s extra long so you can be completely cuddled in it! Sit cross legged with it or whatever! Lol The stitch is awesome and thick! Not sure about a half double one though!
Do you mean another thermal half double crochet video? I have another version and also a single crochet version in my Thermal Stitch Playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLPo4M2kvwZsOEELUUuNN-2aYlS--_c3xy.html 🙂
I love how you show close up of where you put the stitch. This is my first video of yours, and I'll definitely check out more. Thank you!
Thank you! 🙂
This is the best video I have seen of the thermal stitch potholder. You have great lighting, sound, music and slow, clear instructions. Thank you!
Thank you, happy to hear! ❤

Glad you like it! 🧡
You are really good at showing what you do. Thank you sooooo much.
I'm happy to hear that, thank you! 💗
Thank you for giving such clear and easy to understand instructions! I watched this video several times and am now off and running making my potholders! Great job!
You're so welcome! Enjoy making your potholders! :)
Great tutorial I love how you do close ups. I might make small cat blankets for my 5. Thankyou.😊❤
Great idea! I may do the same for my 5!😺 Thanks
Thank you for this tutorial. Good instructions. Easy to follow.
Very well edited. Great close up shots, great explanations and tasteful background music. Very rare to see such a well executed video. Thanks for the hard work.
Thank you so much for the kind words! ❤😊
I am so happy that I found your channel. I have just ordered the correct yarn and will be getting busy as soon as they arrive. Thanks so much!
You're welcome! :)
It's beautiful and very thick. Could be a carpet too. Must use a lot of yarn.
Yes, it does use a bit of yarn to create this thickness! 🙂
Awesome I’ve been wanting to make these for holiday gifts !
For me, this looks very hard to do. It's very pretty and you explained it very well thank you.
Thank you! I agree, it's a little tricky. It might be easier to start with the thermal single crochet: th-cam.com/video/VfwpXwnYUL0/w-d-xo.html
thank you for your easy tutorial! I made one along w/you and I really like the thickness.
You're welcome! Glad you like it :)
Loved making this! Thank you for the very clear instructions & close ups of the stitch. It was tricky to start & awkward to hold while crocheting, but I will definitely use this pattern again!
That's awesome! Glad you liked it. Yes, it takes getting used to 🙂
Wow this is totally different but I was inserting in the 2 loops at the bottom so I thought I was doing it wrong but I wasn’t yay❤❤❤❤best video
I’m making fingerless gloves with this stitch. I love the video, very clear and easy to follow.
Thank you! Glad you like it! :)
Super clear instructions! Thank you!
Happy to hear! You're welcome :)
This will be my next project! I love it❤
I’m getting frustrated I can’t get even sides cause I think I am decreasing. How many stitches should I have for the 2nd rows and following rows?
You should have 27 stitches in every row if you follow this pattern. I usually count the stitches in the first few rows to make sure I have the same amount of stitches in every row. Hope this helps! :)
I must have frogged this five times at least!! Then I tried one chain when turning and it made it so much easier. Mine are coming out beautifully!! ☺️
Thank you for the tutorial.
Too pretty to use, lol. I will use grey, brown or black yarn.
Those colours would be more practical! :)
awesome! Thank you! I'm adding to my try-it list!
Thank you for sharing.
An excellent video !
Really clear about where you place your hook and the stitches .
Thank you
Thank you Jenny! Good to know it was clear ❤️
i realize it is kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good website to stream new series online?
@Memphis Blaze I use flixzone. You can find it on google :)
@Kyler Damien Yea, I've been watching on flixzone for years myself =)
@Kyler Damien Thanks, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :D I really appreciate it !!
You are, by far the best I've found at doing tutorials. Thank you.
How much yarn is needed for this potholder?
Hi Lara, thank you so much! 💓 I have used almost the whole skein of yarn, which was 119 yds (109 m). It's worsted weight (#4) and 100% cotton.

Hallo from Germany!
I make it with 2 colors. Lay the second yarn into the tunnel.
Hello!!! Is it one colour on one side and the other colour on the other side? That would look awesome! If you like to post it on Instagram, tag me @my_crochet_space! I would love to see it! :)

That’s pretty
Where does one find yarn that thick? I looked at Joann’s and their weights for cotton skeins went up to 4 or 5.
I'm using 10ply cotton yarn here which is approx equivalent to worsted or yarn weight 4 🙂
@@MyCrochetSpace that's good to know. I wondered where to find 10 ply cotton yarn too.
Do you have any tips on how to hold the work once it gets big? I’m really struggling to find a good position.
Ok I realized I was making my stitches too tight and things are going better.
@@tammymccaslin4787 Oh good! Yes, the tension shouldn't be too tight. And I only turn my work vertical to work on the first 5 or 6 rows and to make the first couple of stitches as it's easier for me to see the stitches in the row below.

is there a specific number of chains u need to doo? i want to crochef a blanket, but i dont know if chain number matterrrss
The number of chains doesn't matter. Just chain until you get to the desired width of your blanket! 😉
I'm trying to figure out this stitch, but keep getting a roll instead of a flat piece.
How many grams did you use? Is 1 skein enough? 😁
Yes, I used one skein of cotton yarn that was 119yds/109mts, 2.5 oz/71g. 🙂

I have 4 ply cotton yarn. Which hook and how many stiches ?
If you're using 4-ply yarn, I'd recommend doubling it to make it thicker and using a 5mm hook. Simply chain until you reach the desired length for your potholders, then continue to work until you have a square shape! :)
so does the hdc make it even thicker than the sc?
Yes, it's slightly thicker. The regular hdc is a little thicker than the regular sc, so it should be the same in thermal stitches :)
I just cannot do this, all I wind up with is a think rope... 😂
Does doing it left handed matter?
Thank you!!!
Hi Beth, I'm not sure about how to do it left handed, but I think it should work. In the beginning, the first couple of rows may look like a rope as you are working on gaining the thickness.

Is this thicker than the single crochet thermal stitch, or about the same?
In my opinion, slightly thicker :)
About how much yard would it take to make a blanket using this stitch?
Or...how many yard did this take and I can figure it up from there.
Hi Tiffany, I have used Fiddlesticks Finch cotton yarn. It's 119 yards in one skein and I've used around 3/4 of a skein to make this potholder. The potholder is around 7" square.

Thank you newbie sub #200 yay me 🎉🎉🎉🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Yay thanks Nancy! Great to have you here 😊💗
What kind of yarn are you using ? Let me know here Blair
I'm using worsted weight 100% cotton yarn. You can use any brand you like!
@@MyCrochetSpace oh ok thanks so much I love your work 💜💜💜💜
Happy to hear 🙂🧡
@@MyCrochetSpace yep is there another half double joypad that is slower to work with?
