I was doing a big declutter finally decided to donate two crochet blankets I made in the seventies as the colours were so dated. Months later I found them behind the seat of the truck. My husband and son couldn’t bear to part with them. They were made from 99 cent acrylic from Sears just to fill time during a winter of unemployment. You just don’t know which handmade items are going to become sentimental favourites.
@@missmayflower I think so. It would be simple. It's a granny stripe, rainbow blanket made by my great grandma. I have no idea what happened to it, but I have so many memories curled under it.
Me too! In fact I am a very newbie to crocheting and I have done a couple blankets but as soon as the sweet honey hexi pattern and tutorial is available, I’m dropping everything and starting this blanket. I have learned to crochet thanks to you!
Mercy me, this is wayyyyy too much inspiration!! 😍 Your blankets are all so very beautiful; thanks for showing each one and explaining how each was made. I’d absolutely love a tutorial on your solid hexagon blanket, including joining and border. I’ve been wanting to make a blanket like that for ages. Can’t wait to see your video on it. Also: tutorials on your borders would be excellent! Each of them is so perfect for the blanket. I always struggle with finding the right borders. Anyway: Thanks for such an inspiring video! ❤
The title popped up in my feed and I was intrigued. Such talent you have been given! The next step on your journey could be to make and give your blankets to charity so others can feel the love. You’d be surprised at the stories that will come back to you about the blankets you’ve given out. My little group of 5 ladies make blankets for elementary school sick rooms, children in hospitals, adults that are ill, some in nursing homes. And these blankets have even found their way overseas even though we are in the Midwest US. I’ve even seen one at a funeral! So think about sharing your gift with others. You’ll be glad you did! ❤🤗🎉
12 colors in a blanket !!!! Guuurrrrrrrrllllll we are kindred spirits!!!!! i am going to follow you and i look forward to making several of your blankets in january!! love the hexies!! you have a wonderful color sense!!!-- its a gift and thanks for sharing
Your blankets are stunning. And I appreciate the fact that you do videos for lefties. When I started crocheting over 20 years ago, there was practically nothing geared for lefties anywhere, so we had to do brain contortions - and we cursed and swore a lot along the way, lol. Thanks for sharing your wooly treasures with us. Subscribed!
This video is my crochet heaven!! I am blanket obsessed, especially using squares or hexagons. Loving all the designs and colour choices. Hard to pick a favourite 🤔 but I'm going for the honeycomb one, the colours are sensational 😊 I've avoided quality wool rich yarns simply because acrylic washes without giving it any thought! 😅 Ooh but that drape 🧡🤎💚💛
I used to agree with you but superwash wool is pretty resilient! I wash on a gentle cycle and then air dry. They seem to need less washing than the acrylic ones as well as I find acrylic holds smells more
Hi I just found you and subscribed my goodness the blankets are all so beautiful.i loved watching them all you are very talented.thanks so much for sharing.great to see a young person doing the craft.i am 74 years young.crocheting over 50 years found your video so inspiring .thank you so much.💖💖
Beautiful blanket collection, my very favourite one is Sophie’s Universe. I love labour intensive hobbies and already saved a few similar projects in my Ravelry folders. Btw, I just turned 64 and have been crocheting since the age of 14, but only recently started working with yarn and I’m almost done with a queen sized bed cover.
I love the design of the Sampler Blanket and crochet a own blanket for me with also different squares and colors ❤ and wow, the disign of Sofies univers is also beautiful 😊
Thank you so much for this video of all your blankets - so very inspiring!!! Thank you so much!!! Your blankets are so beautiful; I loved them. I'm 64 - but when I grow up I hope to have some crochet projects I can show off too. I loved all of them! Thank you!!!
Holy cow!!!! Every single one is beautiful!!!! I love every single one!!!! The first two you showed would be a major step up for me to even focus and TRY because I’d want it to come together overnight!!!! I’ve never made squares that intricate. You’ve encouraged me to set a goal for 2024!!!!
What an inspiration you are!! The hexagon blankets and starburst are my favourites, so they are now on my list of projects to ‘one day’ attempt! Thank you! 😊
I love the colors of your first project! It is beautiful. I am gifting my first giant granny square blanket to my son for Christmas this year. I love it. It alternates rows of deep amethyst with rows of Red Heart Parrot Stripe. I am now making a patchwork of solid shades of purple and blue grannies bordered with medium gray rows and edging which he will love. I am drawn to your large, drapey hex blanket. It is beautiful as are the rest. All of them folded together just look comforting to me. The very intricate one is so amazing and must have cost a fortune in yarn. Wow!! Very fun video. Thanks.
All your blankets are beautiful. Thanks for the non curling tip. I’m making blankets ever so often but am thinking of doing more. I need to rotate my items as I want to crochet and knit everything I see. TFS
Premium TH-cam put your channel on my face . Those are very beautiful blankets . I have done the number 8 blanket. The granny squares continues the easiest blanklet to make no need to connect just continue crocheting till you reach the desired size . I finished one and gave it to my grandson . I am doing another one for myself . Beautiful works and very beautiful color combinations .i love the hexagon design.I subscribe to your channel.the number 6 blanket is truly one of a kind work of art .
Thankyou for your comment and welcome to the channel. I'm so happy you like my blanket and I agree that number 8 blanket is very easy and one of my favourites!
I made a continuous Granny square blanket out of two strands of fingering weight yarn. It has a tweed appearance because I always used two different colors. I just kept adding yarn as I had it so it slowly grew over two years. I love it so much. So don't be afraid to use yours, just double up.
Have just discovered your channel and I’m tickled at how much our taste in colors, patterns, and techniques overlap. ❤ Looking forward to exploring your other videos. 😊
I love all your blankets. I am a knitter but started crocheting many years ago and just a couple of years ago I picked up again. I will definitely be watching your videos. Thanks again.
The Sophie is everything. Keep it for now, youmight feel differently about it as you get older, and if not, then its a perfect heirloom for your grandchildren.
I’d rather it be loved and used than sit under my bed for another 5 years 🤷♀️ my nan really loves it and we are very close so it feels right to gift it.
Omg I love love all this blankets you made and your stories. I would love the sampler and the hexagon on your next tutorial I’ll be waiting lol. I also love your color scheme so beautiful. God Bless🙏
Oh my gosh!! I‘m a quilter and cross stitcher and once a year I think about crochet something. After this gorgeous video I want to start a blanket! Wonderful trunk show! This you so much and happy new year! 🥳🌷🍀🎈
Happy new year 🎉 and definitely recommend a crochet blanket. I really want to finish a quilt this year. I have a dream of my bed with a patchwork quilt and a crochet blanket 🥰
I follow a few crocheters but you are, by far, the neatest one I’ve ever seen! Your stitches look like a machine did them, as they’re so even. Plus your joining is perfect with everything lined up, nothing wonky or weirdly shaped. I’ll never be able to crochet like that. I did a starburst blanket but joining them was a nightmare and I couldn’t make it symmetrical. It’s so askew! I’m impressed and depressed! 😂 I learned from Attic 24 about 4 years ago, but I’m certainly nowhere near your skill set. I definitely need more practice so I’ll be looking at your tutorials.
I think crochet is definitely a skill that needs lots and lots of practice - you will get there! I know exactly what you mean about the symmetry, I’m such a perfectionist with it so it takes me longer than it would some people
Hello Em🤗💕!! Within 2 minutes of watching you for the 1st time, I instantly felt so thankful to have had your channel show up in my TH-cam feed!! **It’s like winning a lottery for crafters/artisans!! So far, I was blown away with just the first 2 blankets you are sharing!! I’m excited to continue watching the rest of this video. Then, I will proceed to watch your other videos!! Ultimately with the desire to pick the simplest pattern for a beginner - you have inspired me to make a blanket for each of my young grandkids!! Thank you for creating your channel with such beautiful crocheted blankets - and most of all - for being a kind & brave young woman by taking on the challenges of being on TH-cam!! Have a lovely New Year!! Best Wishes for an awesome 2024!!!
Thankyou so so so much for your beautiful comment - it’s made me cry happy tears ❤️ I’m so happy you’re excited about my content, I just love sharing it with like minded people. Your grandchildren are very lucky and I’m sure each blanket will be like a cuddle from their grandma. I’d recommend a giant granny square blanket as it’s beginner friendly and I have tutorials for it on my channel. Thankyou again for taking the time to leave this comment ❤️
Oh wow! You’re so clever! I’m totally in love with your sampler blanket, the scalloped edge is stunning! Your Daisy blanket is my absolute favourite. I picked up the nickname Daisy while living in Australia. I’d love to make it v
I watched this video at least three time to try to figure out which blanket was my favorite. I have it narrowed down to the Hexagon daisy and the Honeysweet hexagon. I loved the borders on all of them. Can’t wait to see the tutorial on the Honey Sweet blanket. Awesome video. Subscribed!
Your channel came up in my feed. I’m so glad it did. You create beautiful things. I’m relatively new to crochet (age 66). I’ve done a few baby blankets . But I’d love to make one in the hexagon pattern. I really like the solid hexagon blanket, so yes please I’d love a tutorial in this pattern. Thank you for sharing your work. Just subscribed.
Welcome and Thankyou for subscribing ❤️ I’m hoping to get the hexagon tutorial up in the next few weeks with a written pattern to follow later in the year
Your blankets are all Beautiful. I am a knitter, although I went down the crochet rabbit hole in 2023 and made 3 blankets for my Grandkids for Christmas. Your blankets have inspired me to make many more. I look forward to some of your tutorials. Thank you for sharing. Happy New Year. 😄
Somehow your channel came across my youtube feed :) I have to tell you, you are such a joyful, happy, positive person that I suddenly realized almost everyone I watch and everyone I am around in person is quite negative! It is nice to have you share your crocheted blankets with such joy. I've been crocheting for 50 years...made lots of blankets and shawls in that time. I can't seem to not have something working up in my hands. I feel guilty to just sit and not be 'doing something'... Your blankets are beautiful - and TWO hexagon blankets! Good for you! I just subscribed, hope you keep up the beautiful work, and keep your smile going because you made ME smile today...and probably many other people too.
Oh , SOPHIE'S UNIVERSE is my dream, it' s just like a wonderful paint ❤❤❤❤ but all Your creations are so perfect , with perfect colur and technic👌👏👏👏👏😘
I adore the hexagon ones, but I'm completely new to crochet and just picked out my colours to make a giant granny square blanket. My reasoning why I'm starting with that instead of a regular granny square blanket is that I know I'll make all the squares, but then they'll sit forever and I'll probably never get around to joining them together into a blanket. lol With the Giant Granny Square blanket, I just stitch till I get tired of it. If it's lap sized then great, if it's big enough for a king sized bed, even better. 😁
Hi Meema, I just found your channel this morning. I'm thrilled!! Your blankets are just stunning. It's not possible to pick a favorite. They are all unique and beautiful. I'm now subscribed and looking forward to new videos!! Love from The Jersey Shore of New Jersey, USA ❤❤
Very pretty, I only make blankets/afghans. I don't usually make anything I have to put together, but I'm thinking about giving it a try. I have been crocheting since 1972. I was 15 and got a ripple afghan kit for Christmas. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 12,19, 2023.
I fell in love with the Hexadaisy blanket and ordered the pattern. I have made blankets for each family member but this one is for me! I’m using Caron Simply Soft as I found a fantastic sale on it and the colours are very similar. The pattern is very easy to follow with great instructions and paired with the online tutorials, learning the pattern was a snap. I’m about halfway through and can’t wait to see the finished result. I love making blankets and your creations really strike a chord with me. Thank you for sharing your patterns with us. You are very talented and inspirational!
wow you so talented. I've made some baby blankets for charity .I made in 1 pattern throughout the blankets. I really like your ideas.lots of love from South Africa.
I defiantly would like to see a video of the making of the Honeysweet Hexagon, it looks beautiful. In my opinion, your first blanket is very nice, the colors work well together.
It’s so hard for me to choose a favourite as all your blankets are beautiful 😍. I’m currently attempting my first Christmas colour granny square blanket - green shades, red and cream. I thought if I start early enough, I will hopefully finish by this Christmas 😂. You are such an inspiration and such a good teacher. Thank you
I love all your blankets and your color choices. I have made three Sophies Universes and three Mandala Madness. I enjoy making them out of cotton DK, it really gives you good stitch definition. I made a couple out of Scheepjes but now I use Paintbox cotton dk which is a reasonable price and comes in a lot of colors. I like to not plan out my colors before I start and just choose them for each part as I go along. My friend made a Sophie out of all cream colored yarn and it was gorgeous.
New subscriber here! So inspired by this video, wow! Someone else who loves blanket making, hooray!❤ Really love your autumnal and soft colour palettes, so cosy and soothing to look at. I know what you mean about bright/busy designs. They're fun to make but subdued colours are much more comforting to have around.😊 Thanks for inspiring me! xxx
❤ Very lovely all of them! I'm just doing a multicolor one and enjoy so much to do crochet! I think U R a nice Lady and I follow U from Lima Perú, S.A.
So glad I came across your videos , I love making crochet blankets your blankets are Beautiful . Thank you for the patterns and videos I am eager to check them out .
Actually my favourite blanket is the hexagon without neutral colors in between. But I do love your daisy hexagon blanket, it’s beautiful. They are all gorgeous!
@@meemamakes I crochet with double thread and use everything I have here. Every granny looks different. With 4.5 mm crochet hook. I will crochet the 6th round in black and then connect it with the mattress stitch. I was looking for it and then I ended up with you. 🥰
Loving the hexagon daisy blanket definitely going to make this, I love the stylevraft special yarn so easy to work with and gorgeous colours. All your blankets are stunning xx
@meemamakes thank you I'm going to get the yarn tomorrow. I was going to do the cosy daisy blanket and then your video popped up and loved it. Thank you for your videos please keep doing them you're an inspiration xx
OMGG the daisy hexagon blanket! I'm so glad you have a video tutorial! ill definitely check it out after this video, I was scared for a moment it was only gonna be available as a written pattern but I never understand those and get so confused trying to read them!
The only thing I couldn’t do a tutorial for was the border as I’d need to make another blanket for that! If you want to learn to read patterns the Hexadaisy might be the way to go as I wrote it specifically to help crocheters who only use video tutorials. The instructions are broken down into bullet points instead of how they are normally written, and has plenty of labelled photos. Happy to send over a screenshot to see if it might work for you. But no worries if not, I’m trying to do a video tutorial for all my patterns moving forwards as I know it’s so helpful for a lot of people!
Hi Meema. I just came across your channel & have now subscribed. I loved all of your blankets & couldn't pick any one as a favourite!! I crochet & knit myself..... so I really appreciate all the work/ time gone into each piece - especially the mandala type design. I'm looking forward to watching/learning from your tutorials. Thank you & regards. Rose 🌻
Dear Meema! I love your blankets, especially Sophies Universe. I ordered all the yarn in your colorway, because I love yours the most. I’m super intimidated, but will be brave and give it a go. Now my question: do you have a colour scheme with the colour for each round? Best wishes! Julia 🌸
Oooo how exciting! You’ve got this 💪 just take it one round at a time I don’t have a list for the colours used and I have now gifted the blanket so won’t be able to write it down for you. I did take a photos as I was making it so you should be able to work out which ones I used. All the photos are here: www.ravelry.com/projects/MeemaMakes/sophies-universe-cal

I can’t believe you are a grandma. So young looking. You have beautiful skin. Have enjoyed your blankets. Glad I found your podcast.
I have a hexagon blanket that my grandmother crocheted for me in wool 💖 my grandmother died 60 years ago, I treasure it
That sounds like a wonderful treasured heirloom. I hope one day my family will treasure mine too ❤️
How special x
I was doing a big declutter finally decided to donate two crochet blankets I made in the seventies as the colours were so dated. Months later I found them behind the seat of the truck.

You just don’t know which handmade items are going to become sentimental favourites.
This is so true! Thankyou for sharing your story ❤️
That's really sweet❤
I was telling my hubs about one from my childhood. He suggested I recreate it. I'm seriously thinking about it.
@@decgal81 Yes! That’s a good idea. It would be so satisfying.
@@missmayflower I think so. It would be simple. It's a granny stripe, rainbow blanket made by my great grandma. I have no idea what happened to it, but I have so many memories curled under it.
Very interested in the hexagon blanket tutorial coming up!♥️ All of the blankets are just beautiful!

You are very welcome, so happy you loved them!
My favorite one is the multicolored hexagon or octagon and I love how you did the ends and then the sides straight! A work of art!!
Thankyou❤️
I love all of your blankets - crochet blankets are like big hugs.
Yes they definitely are!
Holy cow!!!! Every single one is beautiful!!!! I love every single one!!!! The first two you showed would be a major step up for me to even focus and TRY because I’d want it to come together overnight!!!! I’ve never made squares that intricate. You’ve encouraged me to set a goal for 2024!!!!

What an inspiration you are!! The hexagon blankets and starburst are my favourites, so they are now on my list of projects to ‘one day’ attempt! Thank you! 😊

Enjoyed them all! I think the big single granny square blanket is my next project. I find the mindless repetition very soothing!
It is very soothing and grows quickly. Enjoy 😊

Just beautiful!!! You are so talented! Thank you for explaining the details of your creations! 🙂
Thank you so much
Thankyou 🥰
I watched this video at least three time to try to figure out which blanket was my favorite. I have it narrowed down to the Hexagon daisy and the Honeysweet hexagon. I loved the borders on all of them. Can’t wait to see the tutorial on the Honey Sweet blanket. Awesome video. Subscribed!
Your channel came up in my feed. I’m so glad it did. You create beautiful things. I’m relatively new to crochet (age 66). I’ve done a few baby blankets . But I’d love to make one in the hexagon pattern. I really like the solid hexagon blanket, so yes please I’d love a tutorial in this pattern. Thank you for sharing your work. Just subscribed.
Welcome and Thankyou for subscribing ❤️ I’m hoping to get the hexagon tutorial up in the next few weeks with a written pattern to follow later in the year
These are so beautiful! You are very talented! I hope that you will continue to offer more patterns in the future.
Thankyou so much! And I definitely will be, got a few in the works 😊
Your blankets are all Beautiful. I am a knitter, although I went down the crochet rabbit hole in 2023 and made 3 blankets for my Grandkids for Christmas. Your blankets have inspired me to make many more. I look forward to some of your tutorials. Thank you for sharing. Happy New Year. 😄
Happy new year and Thankyou for your comment. So happy to have inspired you ❤️
What beautiful blankets you've created 😮😊❤
Somehow your channel came across my youtube feed :)
I have to tell you, you are such a joyful, happy, positive person that I suddenly realized almost everyone I watch and everyone I am around in person is quite negative! It is nice to have you share your crocheted blankets with such joy.
I've been crocheting for 50 years...made lots of blankets and shawls in that time. I can't seem to not have something working up in my hands. I feel guilty to just sit and not be 'doing something'...
Your blankets are beautiful - and TWO hexagon blankets! Good for you! I just subscribed, hope you keep up the beautiful work, and keep your smile going because you made ME smile today...and probably many other people too.
Thankyou so much for your kind comment, it made me smile too! Welcome to the channel ❤️
Oh , SOPHIE'S UNIVERSE is my dream, it' s just like a wonderful paint ❤❤❤❤ but all Your creations are so perfect , with perfect colur and technic👌👏👏👏👏😘
I adore the hexagon ones, but I'm completely new to crochet and just picked out my colours to make a giant granny square blanket.
My reasoning why I'm starting with that instead of a regular granny square blanket is that I know I'll make all the squares, but then they'll sit forever and I'll probably never get around to joining them together into a blanket. lol
With the Giant Granny Square blanket, I just stitch till I get tired of it. If it's lap sized then great, if it's big enough for a king sized bed, even better. 😁
Yes this is why I recommend giant grannies for a first blanket! They work up fairly quickly as well
Hi Meema, I just found your channel this morning. I'm thrilled!! Your blankets are just stunning. It's not possible to pick a favorite. They are all unique and beautiful. I'm now subscribed and looking forward to new videos!! Love from The Jersey Shore of New Jersey, USA ❤❤
Thankyou and Welcome! So happy you like my blankets🥰
Yes definitely interested in tutorial for the hexi blanket. Thank you! Very lovely
Very pretty, I only make blankets/afghans. I don't usually make anything I have to put together, but I'm thinking about giving it a try. I have been crocheting since 1972. I was 15 and got a ripple afghan kit for Christmas. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 12,19, 2023.
We are opposites - I never finish blankets worked in rows 🤣 I prefer having the smaller pieces to put together
They are all beautiful. They you for sharing.
You’re welcome, Thankyou for commenting 🥰
Lovely! Beautiful edges! Thank you for sharing!💐
Que manta linda, fiquei apaixonada…tons pastéis de super bom gosto e delicadeza! ❤
How beautiful are all the blankets you have made i love the colors.
Thanks so much 😊
All of these blankets are really really beautiful 😍. Thank you for sharing ❤
Glad you like them!
I fell in love with the Hexadaisy blanket and ordered the pattern. I have made blankets for each family member but this one is for me! I’m using Caron Simply Soft as I found a fantastic sale on it and the colours are very similar. The pattern is very easy to follow with great instructions and paired with the online tutorials, learning the pattern was a snap. I’m about halfway through and can’t wait to see the finished result. I love making blankets and your creations really strike a chord with me. Thank you for sharing your patterns with us. You are very talented and inspirational!
Oh Thankyou so so much for leaving this kind comment. It’s made smile so much 😊 I’m happy you’re enjoying the hexadaisy blanket!
Thanks for the inspiration, your amazing crochet is beautiful. Im off to clear my stash of acrylic yarn with one of your suggestions 😊
wow you so talented. I've made some baby blankets for charity .I made in 1 pattern throughout the blankets. I really like your ideas.lots of love from South Africa.
Восторг!!! ❤❤❤ Очень красивые работы! Вы молодец!
I defiantly would like to see a video of the making of the Honeysweet Hexagon, it looks beautiful. In my opinion, your first blanket is very nice, the colors work well together.
Thankyou ❤️ I am currently making up some hexagons ready for the tutorial!
It’s so hard for me to choose a favourite as all your blankets are beautiful 😍. I’m currently attempting my first Christmas colour granny square blanket - green shades, red and cream. I thought if I start early enough, I will hopefully finish by this Christmas 😂. You are such an inspiration and such a good teacher. Thank you
This is such a good idea - starting so early. I always leave it too late!
I love all your blankets and your color choices. I have made three Sophies Universes and three Mandala Madness. I enjoy making them out of cotton DK, it really gives you good stitch definition. I made a couple out of Scheepjes but now I use Paintbox cotton dk which is a reasonable price and comes in a lot of colors. I like to not plan out my colors before I start and just choose them for each part as I go along. My friend made a Sophie out of all cream colored yarn and it was gorgeous.
Oh wow, a one colour Sophie. I bet that really highlighted the gorgeous texture! Maybe I should have done that 🤔
They're all gorgeous, you give great advice. I just started crocheting a week ago.
Oooo how exciting, welcome to world of crochet! Just a lil warning, it’s super addictive
New subscriber here! So inspired by this video, wow! Someone else who loves blanket making, hooray!❤ Really love your autumnal and soft colour palettes, so cosy and soothing to look at. I know what you mean about bright/busy designs. They're fun to make but subdued colours are much more comforting to have around.😊 Thanks for inspiring me! xxx
They are all beautiful, I like the hexagon one in the autumn shades. You are so talented.
Thanks for the ideas.
Thank you so much!
Oooo…Debbie Bliss Cashmerino is so lush. That would be the coziest blanket!
It really really is 😍
❤ Very lovely all of them! I'm just doing a multicolor one and enjoy so much to do crochet! I think U R a nice Lady and I follow U from Lima Perú, S.A.
So glad you liked them! Hi from England to Peru 👋
Sophie's Universe is so so awesome
OMG 😍🤯
Yes the designer is soooo talented, it’s such a fabulous pattern
So glad I came across your videos , I love making crochet blankets your blankets are Beautiful . Thank you for the patterns and videos I am eager to check them out .
Thankyou, so happy you like my blankets and hope you like my other videos too 😊
With a sister…love making blankets with texture
Oooo yes definitely
Yes please. Show us how to crochet the hexagon blanket. And what alternative yarn can we use please?💚
Any you like! I’ll be doing the maths for any sport or DK yarn but it’s easy to substitute bulkier yarns if you want to
That granny Sq blanket 11:56 is exquisite!❤ 😮😮😮all are beautifully done
Love all the blankets and colors! So talented ❤️
Thankyou so much 😊
Actually my favourite blanket is the hexagon without neutral colors in between. But I do love your daisy hexagon blanket, it’s beautiful. They are all gorgeous!
Thankyou! There's something special about hexagon blankets isn't ther? - I love them! I'm planning another in the future too 🥰
I love all your blankets and my favourite is Sophie’s Universe
Good choice! It is a beauty 🥰
I love your color combinations! I have such a hard time choosing colors. Thank you for all the tip!
You are so welcome! Colour combinations have taken me a lot of practice and trial and error
Your blankets are so beautiful. I like them all. A few days ago I started a granny blanket from leftover sock yarn.
Oooo I’ve been thinking about a sock yarn blanket. Can I ask what size hook you’re using?
@@meemamakes I crochet with double thread and use everything I have here. Every granny looks different. With 4.5 mm crochet hook. I will crochet the 6th round in black and then connect it with the mattress stitch. I was looking for it and then I ended up with you. 🥰
@@bunti.7496 that sounds wonderful. I hadn’t considered holding two threads together, so Thankyou for the idea!
Beautiful work very talented. Thank you for sharing your videos, God bless you and good luck .From USA 😊
Hi meema i m from BHARAT and i love your creation sooooo much thnku soo much for this video
Thank you so much for commenting 😀
O my God you are gifted to make such large blankets. I only made little ones like 1 metre square ones.
What a great roundup!. I also have cupboards full of stylecraft in a million colours. I think the hexi daisy is my favourite but it’s a hard choice!
Loving the hexagon daisy blanket definitely going to make this, I love the stylevraft special yarn so easy to work with and gorgeous colours. All your blankets are stunning xx
Thankyou so much! And good luck with your Hexadaisy. It’s a bit of an addictive pattern 🤣
@meemamakes thank you I'm going to get the yarn tomorrow. I was going to do the cosy daisy blanket and then your video popped up and loved it. Thank you for your videos please keep doing them you're an inspiration xx
Your work is next level. This is beautiful 😍
Thank you so much!
All so gorgeous
Thankyou
Blankets are beautiful looking forward to tutorials
Thankyou - glad you like them!
OMGG the daisy hexagon blanket! I'm so glad you have a video tutorial! ill definitely check it out after this video, I was scared for a moment it was only gonna be available as a written pattern but I never understand those and get so confused trying to read them!
The only thing I couldn’t do a tutorial for was the border as I’d need to make another blanket for that! If you want to learn to read patterns the Hexadaisy might be the way to go as I wrote it specifically to help crocheters who only use video tutorials. The instructions are broken down into bullet points instead of how they are normally written, and has plenty of labelled photos. Happy to send over a screenshot to see if it might work for you. But no worries if not, I’m trying to do a video tutorial for all my patterns moving forwards as I know it’s so helpful for a lot of people!
your work is STUNNING! I love them all!
Thank you so much!
Wow to Sophies Universe blanket ❤
I love your blankets they're so beautiful and your color choices are absolutely perfect ❤
Thankyou ❤️
So love your blankets. Very beautiful!
Thankyou 🥰
Hi Meema. I just came across your channel & have now subscribed. I loved all of your blankets & couldn't pick any one as a favourite!! I crochet & knit myself..... so I really appreciate all the work/ time gone into each piece - especially the mandala type design. I'm looking forward to watching/learning from your tutorials. Thank you & regards. Rose 🌻
Welcome to the channel! I’m so happy you love my blankets. I can’t wait to keep sharing my love of crochet blankets with you ❤️
Dear Meema!
I love your blankets, especially Sophies Universe. I ordered all the yarn in your colorway, because I love yours the most. I’m super intimidated, but will be brave and give it a go. Now my question: do you have a colour scheme with the colour for each round? Best wishes! Julia 🌸
Oooo how exciting! You’ve got this 💪 just take it one round at a time
I don’t have a list for the colours used and I have now gifted the blanket so won’t be able to write it down for you. I did take a photos as I was making it so you should be able to work out which ones I used. All the photos are here: www.ravelry.com/projects/MeemaMakes/sophies-universe-cal
@@meemamakes Thank you so much! I’m on round 29 and it’s really fun! 🥳
