I am, by no means, an experienced crocheter, BUT when I watch and copy what you are doing, I am able to crochet whichever stitch or pattern you are presenting to us - without mistakes! You are an excellent instructor, thank you so much for helping me to build on my crocheting confidence!
Robin, This is the first pattern my Grandmother taught me to crochet. She gave me a box of odd yarn. I was quite proud of my first Afghan. It was colorful and a bit wonky! Your color choices are beautiful. Thanks for the happy memory of my late Grandmother. She is the inspiration for my creative endeavors. Thanks for sharing.❤
Dear Robin, your way of explaining actually gets processed in my brain! Thank you for making me understand this stitch to have the courage to try it again after many failures!
I AM a seasoned crocheter..but I have to say...I have never used this pattern and you are the ONLY one to explain this stitch where someone can understand it easily. Thanks for the new stitch and your excellent teaching skills!!❤
Excellent tutorial. Your camera angle & lighting show precisely where the hook should be placed. This stitch is really easier than it seems from just looking at a completed sample.
Thank you for explaining everything so well. I am 66 years old, and have crocheted off and on for decades, more off than on. I live your videos and want to try them all. I just need my hubby to find my multiple tubs of yarn, out in our caport that the car can't fit into. We have only been here four years. You inspire me to do more. Thank you!
Your tutorials, directions for crocheting projects have been fantastic. I have been able to start the foundation chains, and have continued crocheting the project, e.g. Larksfoot Crochet Blanket without frustration or giving up. Your voice is soft, comforting, and you present as extremely patient. Your tutorial/video's have been the best, I have found. Great instructor, Robin. I will continue subscribing to your channel, and enjoy learning new crocheting skills.
Robin, I just started crocheting about 4 months ago and have used your tutorials to make 4 scarves, a blanket, and a shawl. Your way of explaining each stitch, and sharing all of your patterns is so appreciated. I’ve learned so much from you - I’m truly hooked! 16:16
I found this pattern a little confusing but after watching Robyn's video, it all made sense...she explains in detail. Thank you Robyn. I will continue to follow you.
I love this stitch. Definitely have to try this. Also love that you have the Timestamps that you can jump to if needed. Your tutorials are always very clear and enjoyable to watch.
I have been looking for this stitch forever! I didn't know what it was called. My grandma made one for my mom over 30 years ago but she has passed away so I couldn't ask her. I'm so happy! Thank you so much! I love your channel and have learned so much from you. ❤
@@HookedbyRobin I have an update: Having finished my sampler section of larksfoot with joined doubles, I'm left wondering why in row four of the design we create a space mirroring the spaces in row three. My guess is that it's to reduce bulk for the long spike stitch coming in the row above. But my problem was that I had trouble regulating the tension of that spike stitch. The hole wanted to collapse, even though I was drawing up what I thought was a roomy spike. If I do this pattern again I'll test to see whether more tension on the spike makes a pretty scalloped effect, or whether filling in the holes on row 4 with a continual row of the joined doubles gives better structure. Your sample was very beautiful! I'm not trying to diss your work. I'm just reporting how it went for me. Thank you again for sharing such beautiful stitches to try!
Thank you Robin. Im fairly new to crochet, havent done the larksfoot yet, watched a few tutorials on it but yours is the easiest to follow and most informative for this new comer. Very much appreciated 🧡🥰
Perfect timing! I just started looking for some easy, fast growing patterns to srat msking some baby blankets to donate. This one will definitely be on my list! Thanks Robin 😍
Hello, I love watching your videos and I have learned so much by just rewinding repeatedly. Unfortunately, you make it look so easy & perfect and I want mine to look like yours. Perfect! I think I have trouble finding/counting the tops of the stitches to work into. You are a master of the craft. I’ll keep trying😂.
When I startet crochet I used lots of stitch markers. It really helps to get used to how the top of a stitch looks on a return row! And especially identifying the top of the first stitch of a row, since those always get cramped/yanked sideways. Using stitch markers helped me so much that I don‘t use them at all by now, unless I pause working on something. Then I put a little slip of paper with the material and hook size on the marker (just push the marker through the paper) and secure the working yarn with it, before putting it in storage. Those 8 € for a box of 100 colorful stitch markers were a great investment!
Easy to follow along with you and I’ve got to say I’ve seen this stitch before but I didn’t think I liked it because of the colors used to demonstrate it. I know I shouldn’t judge a stitch by it’s color but unfortunately I did (do) and yours looks so, so pretty! I’m excited to use it now! TY for sharing💜🙏💜
Robin, You keep coming up with so many fun and wonderful patterns. 💜👍🏼 So many patterns and not enough time in a day. 🤣 Thanks again for another wonderful pattern. 💜
Thank you so much for making this, your tutorials are all very clear and simple. I always avoid this pattern because I thought it looks complicated 😂😂 so thank you!
I love how this stich looks using one solid yarn for the first two rows and one variegated.yarn for the other two rows. For exame, I used Buff Chamois as a solid and Platoon as a variegated. I think it looks amazing. The yarns mentioned are from Red Heart Super Saver, which is the acrylic yarn that I use for making throws/afghans. It is affordable and beautiful.
Hi Robin, thank you for a brilliant tutorial, always been a knitter and only recently found crochet, I found it very difficult at the beginning as I didn’t understand the patterns but watching tutorials seems to help, must be a visual learner, I just finished the Sirdar crochet along for the sweet blossom blanket as my first piece, it took a lot longer than the six weeks but I enjoyed it immensely. Don’t think I’ll be picking up my knitting needles for a while, so many new crochet stitches to learn and you make it look so easy, thank you😘
Hi Jackie. As this video was in 2020, unfortunately that link to the yarn does not work anymore as that shop has stopped selling it. But if you search on google for: Scheepjes Chunky Monkey then some options should come up for different websites you can buy it from. The colours in blanket shown in intro and thumbnail (in order of use)are: Cardinal Coral Deep Orange Ochre Mustard Eucalyptus Cornflower Blue Mauve Amethyst. I hope that helps. 🤗🧶
Love this. Sorry if already answered could this stitch work in DK with smaller hooks? Want to use up stash. Blanket for a charity project Thank you for all you do Your tutorials are the clearest ever and help us to try different projects ❤️
What a lovely idea! Might have to watch it a dozen times as I'm a rank beginner but I'm game to try it. p.s. I'd give a thousand pounds to have fingernails like yours.
Robin - Is it possible to start with a chainless foundation double crochet for this pattern? This particular panel I need to make is 125 stitches wide so I wondered if I could incorporate the foundation into this. Thanks,

I'm going to challenge myself with this one. Looks great. Really helpful with the timestamps. Thanks.
Since you taught me the joined double crochet stitch I'm doing this larksfoot with that variation, and it's working very nicely!
Perfect Marialla!😃😍

Hi Jackie. As this video was in 2020, unfortunately that link to the yarn does not work anymore as that shop has stopped selling it.

The colours in blanket shown in intro and thumbnail (in order of use)are:
Cardinal
Coral
Deep Orange
Ochre
Mustard
Eucalyptus
Cornflower Blue
Mauve
Amethyst.
I hope that helps. 🤗🧶

Thank you for swift reply. I suppose it will take a bit longer 😜
What a lovely idea! Might have to watch it a dozen times as I'm a rank beginner but I'm game to try it. p.s. I'd give a thousand pounds to have fingernails like yours.
Thank you 💖💖💖
Thank you! 👍🏼😘👌🏼
Thank you.
🥰🥰
I need 2 make this
Wow, can I do your hint on weaving in changing colours with this Lark stitch?
Vou fazer tenho sobras é fácil. 💕
Does this stitch still show through well working with only one color of yarn?
After I finish row 5 and get ready to repeat rows 2, 3,4, and 5, how many chains do I make to start the repeat? Thank you.
How many balls of yarn did you use all together and what size was the finished blanket please?
Robin - Is it possible to start with a chainless foundation double crochet for this pattern? This particular panel I need to make is 125 stitches wide so I wondered if I could incorporate the foundation into this. Thanks,
I just finished this stitch pattern making a scarf just curious if I wanted to make it cowl scarf how would I do that?
nice ty
Una genialidad gracias por compartir 👍
Do you cut the ends of the colors you are done with? Then wea
Ve them in later? Or do you pull them up somehow when their turn comes around again???
hi how many chain stitches would you do for a baby blanket many thanks
Hi
Love this. Did you use aran or chunky yarn please?
