You are fast becoming my favorite TH-cam crochet channel. I love that you give credit to other makers and introduce them to me. Your videos are so informative positive helpful and encouraging. ❤
They are all so pretty....I am just working on a 12 point star baby blanket in blues and greens.....I also knot all my scraps together and wind them into a ball....I add them to my scrappy granny square blanket....it is so colourful.....x
I love ALL of your videos Elise! I rewatch a number of them from time to time as well. I find myself always looking forward to tour videos. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise in crocheting. Do take care and hope you will continue to keep posting videos. Hugs. :)
These are all so gorgeous Elise! Thank you for sharing all of these with us! Style craft is my favourite yarn btw, I live in the UK so it is the most readily available and popular brand! ❤
I am new to crochet and your channel. I have just made blanket for my daughter and granddaughters and grandson. Thanks for sharing all the information about blanket size. You are so talented all the beautiful baby blankets you have made. Thanks for the recommendation of yarn you use. I love the granny squares blankets. Have only used Red heart. Have a wonderful day.♥️
Welcome! I'm so glad you like the baby blankets, they really are fun to make! The Stylecraft Special DK is a favorite yarn for blanket making by many big blanket designers! So many pretty colors!! 💕
So beautiful!!! I made the starburst blanket last spring when I saw one of your videos! I love it. I have 2 sisters and a friend who are expecting babies this year! I just LOVE making blankets so much. And I have a stash to bust!!
I love this video so much. You know I just LOVE crochet baby blankets especially versions of the Granny square. Beautiful gorgeous blankets Elise. So pretty and precious. Thanks so much for sharing. I make and donate about a dozen blankets a year to Save a Life. You've given me new ideas and inspiration. :) :)
Those blankets are so gorgeous! I was going to tell you my favorite but as you went through them I was like, " ok thats my favorite" so hard to choose!
I love watching your videos because both your enthusiasm and your creativity bring such great joy! Your baby blankets are inspirational. I just watched Andrea from 'Fruity Knitting' podcast interviewing Alan Dart and I thought of you when I saw his amazing knitted toys. It's a wonderful episode and honors his lifetime of work. Thank you for always bringing a ray of sunshine to the world with every video that you publish. J
I saw that interview with Alan Dart!! He was incredible!! I can't get over how he is able to design those characters in knitted form!! And I'm so glad you like the videos!! ❤️❤️❤️
I've always just made the blankets by eye - estimating the size, basically, and ending up with ones pretty much the same sizes as the figures you had. I did decide to try mitre squares for the blanket of a friend of mine. I was planning on making it about 40 inches square (I like making square ones as they can later be used for the child to sit on when playing, etc.) but my friend's wife insisted that it needed to be bigger, so I made it to fit on a queen size bed! Anyway, it looked amazing and I made sure to remind my friend to tell her wife that the blanket is for the baby. "For the baby!!" But baby blankets are a lot of fun to make.
The most beautiful baby blanket is the one crocheted by Grandmommy!! Lol. I crochet 2 baby blankets for each grandchild. 1 for the baby crib and 1 for them to snuggle with or drag around. I always ask my daughters to meet with me so they may pick out the color(s) they want. These blankets are so cute!
I've well established by now that I don't use patterns, but I do love the idea of making blankets (if not so much the execution.) Going on two years ago now, I made a queen sized blanket for a friend of mine for his birthday (because he's one of those who doesn't collect anything, so it's impossible to buy him stuff.) Anyway, he does photography, so I based this blanket on a photo he took of a church silhouetted against this gorgeous night sky with stars and even a planet visible amidst purple-ish clouds. Well, I wanted a unique stitch for the clouds, so I looked up blanket stitches here on TH-cam and found out about the wavy seashell stitch. That. Stitch. Is. AMAZING. And it made my interpretation of the clouds look so cool. If I was going to do a blanket ever again, I'd do one just using the wavy seashell stitch, because once you know how to do it, it works up well, and the final product is gorgeous.
Wow! That sounds absolutely incredible! I wish TH-cam gave the option for adding photos to comments! And now I have to find that Wavy Seashell Stitch! I hope your friend appreciated that amazing gift! 🌊
What a great episode. I love all the blankets that you have crocheted. I actually started a grannie goes large for my new great nephew but it won't be that large lol. but i am using the style craft dk that i had in my stash and they actually match his nursery. So Bonus. I love Bella Coco. She is how I learned to crochet. She is a great teacher. Thanks for such great youtube videos I really look forward to them julie
I love your utube. So inspirational. Earlier I had asked about the yarns.when you are using up yarns ,are all those the same type in the blanket are the scraps the same weight. I'm saying you're doing at that time ?.fir the granny squares. So beautiful
Thank you! Yes, most of the blankets contain the same brand and weight of yarn. One of the blankets has different brands but they are all the same weight. Hope that makes sense!! 🧶🧶🧶
I always look forward to seeing your videos 💞 Love all of these blankets. I am always looking for baby blanket ideas and these are beautiful. Thank you for sharing these wonderful blankets with us. Have a blessed week 💜💜
These blankets are so beautiful, my daughet is expecting her first baby & my first grandbaby so I'm absolutely making blankets, thanks for sharing your lovely blankets💕🙏
I never thought about colourful granny square baby blankets, how gorgeous! One thing I always struggle with, is what is the best way to maintain tension...especially when you set the project aside for a time?
I love your video and your crochet creations, you’re my favourite person to watch on TH-cam! I would love to see you do a video about how you embroider , and sew your pieces of amigurumi together!
You should also check out the pica pau yarn !! I know you don’t like cotton but it’s a super soft cotton. I love Yan Shenkel projects and I have to thank you for introducing me to her!💞
Thank you so much!! I have that info in the Bubble the Catster video but it's within the full tutorial. Here's the link to that video: th-cam.com/video/ASzIh5SOo68/w-d-xo.html But maybe a stand alone video would be good as well!
This was an amazing episode! I so love crocheted blankets. They are all gorgeous and thank you for all the links and introductions to new (to me) designers. I actually have the Colorful Granny Square Blanket book😀.
Hello Elise, I love the colours you choosed for the granny goes large blankET !!! Whow, so nice. Please can you tell me colourway? I think it's rasberry, pale rose, grafite, gold, mushroom, silver .... is it duck egg? I don't know whether I'm right because it s difficult to see in the video. I think I want to use these colours for my next blanket.... Thank you
I've got a link in the description box so you can find a list for all the colors! It's been a while since I made it and my memory is failing me right now! 😊
@@EliseRoseCrochet Thank you very much for answering. Unfortunately in the links there are other colours used. Or maybe I just can't find it ....:) 🙏🙏🙏🌺🌺
I love them all! I want to make them all! Lol Thank you for showing them ~ putting different borders on them makes such a difference. You mentioned borders with bobbles and then one with poms. Are those the same? Thx
The bobbles are more "attached" and then the pom pom border is more separated from each other. Not sure how to explain that! I hope that makes a little sense! 💕

I'm curling up with my huge granny square blanket.. it truly is a meditation. Love how you introduce us to other makers. Great video. Maybe you could share your favorite ways to attach granny squares.
Thank you so much!! I'm sitting here under my new granny square blanket too (plus a little kitty cat on my lap). Thanks so much for the suggestion!! My current favorite way is the join as you go method! ❤️❤️❤️
Great video. I just subscribed. I made the starburst baby blanket as a gift last year. It turned out great. All your information was good to know. Thanks so much for sharing. I’m glad I found your channel.
Hi I just found you and subscribed from Ireland.. Loving watching all these fabulous blankets I love stylecraft dk too. I crochet blankets and baby cardies for charity.. These ideas are perfect.. I look forward to watching all your videos... 😊😊😊
Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! 🧶 Doing my Ancestry DNA testing I found that I'm about 50% Irish, from the western coast of Ireland specifically! I would love to visit someday!! ☘️☘️☘️
I to love the grannies doing one with 2 round solid black in between just started love your afghans from Newfoundland Canada yes i agree love join as you go that is what i like just a lap afghans i only have worsted weight wool these are warmer then the quilts i sew as well
Gorgeous granny square child’s blankets! I can’t say which one I like most. Are these in a book of yours? I didn’t get that. Is there any tutorial kick start?? Lovely. PS: I’ve never made a granny sq blanket! You’ve got me very interested.
Hello! ☺️ No, these aren't my patterns! You'll find links to them all in the description box below. Here's a tutorial for a basic granny square: th-cam.com/video/EWMnEMgwQ7s/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps! ❤️
Such a great video, I loved seeing all your baby blankets, thanks for sharing the sources too. It actually reminded me of the crochet blankets I've made in the past - I must do a video about those.
I am just finishing up this Granny Goes Large blanket. I am in love with this super easy pattern! I have to tell you, I just love your style and I come back to this particular video again and again for color inspiration. Would you mind sharing your favorite technique for laundering your blankets?
Thank you so very much! I typically just wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle and then lay them flat to dry. I really try not to wash them very often. 💚
What great timing! I have 2 baby showers coming up that I need to make blankets for. I absolutely LOVE Stylecraft DK yarn! I order it from Wool Warehouse in England. As you mentioned, it’s sooo soft and east to work with! I’ve also made a few of Lucy’s patterns from her Attic 24 blog. Great minds...!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the episode!! And it really is such a great yarn for blankets! So many colors and a great price for a quality yarn! Lucky babies to get a handmade blanket!! 🌷
Great video! My favorite baby blanket patter in the giant granny square using multiple colors. I also started making a v-stitch blanket in various colors which looks pretty too. Can do so much with colors for either pattern. Thanks again and take care. Kris K from CT 🧶🙂
Elise, I absolutely love all these blankets!! They're all gorgeous & the borders are so pretty!! 😍 Thanks for leaving links to the books & patterns. There's a blanket I've been wanting to make by Crochet with Clare and it's called Crochet Daisy Blanket
'Soft' is key word for baby blankets because some babies will rub their blanket across their face as they fall to sleep. If yarn isn't soft, baby gets a yarn burn. The only baby blanket that some day care centers allow are granny square blankets and by that I mean 1 big granny square. 22 to 24 rows using an F or G hook. I'm speaking from my families experience. The big granny square blanket allows young babies air to breathe and even then everyone must be diligent-watch your babies. Always ask your baby's pediatrician for advice.
Hey NC here also! Earl, NC population 257! No stop lights. We do have a post office, gas station/grill and Dollar General but lol DG csnt keep employees so there's often a sign up saying "Closed due to staffing shortage"! 🤣 I wish I wasn't scared to attempt another granny. The sewing together I was not great yrs ago and the blanket came apart!
I've never heard of Earl before! Will have to look it up on a map! You should check out the join as you go method for granny squares. You don't have to sew them together!! 💙🧶💙🧶
You must have read my mind! Loved this video, I have been looking for some baby blanket ideas and these were perfect. Matter of fact, I have made that same blanket you showed from Dada’s place.
In the UK there are crocheters and sewers making items for organisations supporting bereaved parents (who lost their babies before or shortly after birth). The mothers keep the blanket as part of the memorial for their child. Is this something done in the USA? 💖
Love all your blankets! The color combinations are wonderful. I make a lot of baby blankets. My favorite pattern is by Moogly, called The Loopy Love Blanket. She has a very helpful list of sizes on the pattern blog as well. Happy Crocheting!
Iam expecting my first great grand baby in march. I will love to make a blanket. My hands are not to good after 50 year crocheting 😢and have problems with tension. Do you have any suggestions to improve ? ❤ I love your Chanel and I subscribed.
I love the colors you have used for the Sunburst Granny Square blanket, do you remember the names of them? Did you use the Stylecraft special dk yarn? 🙂
Just beautiful work!!! I have my colors I want to use to make the attic granny squares. How do you decide what colors go where and how to place them together? Thanks so much

Such an inspiring video! Lovely blankets.

Gorgeous granny square child’s blankets! I can’t say which one I like most.
Are these in a book of yours? I didn’t get that.
Is there any tutorial kick start?? Lovely.
PS: I’ve never made a granny sq blanket! You’ve got me very interested.
Hello! ☺️ No, these aren't my patterns! You'll find links to them all in the description box below. Here's a tutorial for a basic granny square: th-cam.com/video/EWMnEMgwQ7s/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps! ❤️
Beautiful blankets.
Thank you so much! 💜
Such a great video, I loved seeing all your baby blankets, thanks for sharing the sources too. It actually reminded me of the crochet blankets I've made in the past - I must do a video about those.
Thank you!! Blankets are so wonderful to make. ❤️❤️
Beautiful! I enjoy the Call the Midwife baby blanket and the dotty diamond blanket by Fiber Spider.
Oooh! I will definitely be checking those out! Thanks for sharing!!! 🧶🧶🧶
Love your blankets and this video!
Thank you so much! 💜
Thanks for showing these amazing colorful blankets. Just subscribed!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the blankets! 💕
I am just finishing up this Granny Goes Large blanket. I am in love with this super easy pattern! I have to tell you, I just love your style and I come back to this particular video again and again for color inspiration. Would you mind sharing your favorite technique for laundering your blankets?
Thank you so very much! I typically just wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle and then lay them flat to dry. I really try not to wash them very often. 💚
Such beautiful work Elise. I love them all. Thanks for sharing the links. Stay well 💕
I'm so glad you liked them! You're so very welcome! ❤️❤️❤️
What great timing! I have 2 baby showers coming up that I need to make blankets for. I absolutely LOVE Stylecraft DK yarn! I order it from Wool Warehouse in England. As you mentioned, it’s sooo soft and east to work with! I’ve also made a few of Lucy’s patterns from her Attic 24 blog. Great minds...!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the episode!! And it really is such a great yarn for blankets! So many colors and a great price for a quality yarn! Lucky babies to get a handmade blanket!! 🌷
What a beautiful edition! 💖💙🙏🏻😘
Thanks so very much! 💕💕💕
Thank you✔️🙏🏻
You're so welcome? 💙
Great video! My favorite baby blanket patter in the giant granny square using multiple colors. I also started making a v-stitch blanket in various colors which looks pretty too. Can do so much with colors for either pattern. Thanks again and take care.
Kris K from CT 🧶🙂

Thank you so much! That is a pattern that I have never published! I call her Magik Kitty! 🐱🌈✨
@@EliseRoseCrochet She's adorable! I hope you decide to publish her one day!! :)
Could you make the Taylor swift crochet dress and make a video tutorial?
Maybe with info on how to cinch the waist for more shape.
New to your channel. Absolutely beautiful and fun blankets! Lots of great info too. I have that same border stitch book & love it. 💕
Thank you so much! It's such a great book to have on hand! 💜
'Soft' is key word for baby blankets because some babies will rub their blanket across their face as they fall to sleep. If yarn isn't soft, baby gets a yarn burn. The only baby blanket that some day care centers allow are granny square blankets and by that I mean 1 big granny square. 22 to 24 rows using an F or G hook. I'm speaking from my families experience. The big granny square blanket allows young babies air to breathe and even then everyone must be diligent-watch your babies. Always ask your baby's pediatrician for advice.
Great information! Thanks so much for sharing! 💕
Hey NC here also! Earl, NC population 257! No stop lights. We do have a post office, gas station/grill and Dollar General but lol DG csnt keep employees so there's often a sign up saying "Closed due to staffing shortage"! 🤣
I wish I wasn't scared to attempt another granny. The sewing together I was not great yrs ago and the blanket came apart!
I've never heard of Earl before! Will have to look it up on a map! You should check out the join as you go method for granny squares. You don't have to sew them together!! 💙🧶💙🧶

In the UK there are crocheters and sewers making items for organisations supporting bereaved parents (who lost their babies before or shortly after birth). The mothers keep the blanket as part of the memorial for their child. Is this something done in the USA? 💖
That's such a beautiful thing do. 🧶🧶🧶
Love all your blankets! The color combinations are wonderful. I make a lot of baby blankets. My favorite pattern is by Moogly, called The Loopy Love Blanket. She has a very helpful list of sizes on the pattern blog as well. Happy Crocheting!
Thanks so much for sharing!! Will be looking that one up!! 💕💕💕
Merci beaucoup pour votre vidéo très inspirante !
❤️❤️❤️
Iam expecting my first great grand baby in march. I will love to make a blanket. My hands are not to good after 50 year crocheting 😢and have problems with tension. Do you have any suggestions to improve ? ❤ I love your Chanel and I subscribed.

I love the colors you have used for the Sunburst Granny Square blanket, do you remember the names of them? Did you use the Stylecraft special dk yarn? 🙂
Unfortunately that's the one that I can't remember the yarn I used! So sorry! 🧶🧶🧶
@@EliseRoseCrochet Haha, I watched this video more than once and still I missed that 🙈😂 Thank you🏵
Bellissime

Just beautiful work!!! I have my colors I want to use to make the attic granny squares. How do you decide what colors go where and how to place them together? Thanks so much
If you go to the Attic 24 website there is information about how to add all the colors. 💖
