  • How to Crochet Corner to Corner Afghan. This concept is really easy and is a trending idea for crocheters at this time. The appeal is in the speed of which one of these can be done. Once you get half way, each side is decreased and you will get faster and faster. For the free pattern, you can find it at: bit.ly/1GArZ0y #crochet #learntocrochet #crochettutorial .

    Of all the C2C videos I have watched on TH-cam, this is the easiest one to watch, AND to work along with. Mikey, thank you very much for the ease at which you teach, and indeed, leaving no one behind.

    I just have to thank you. After initially being introduced to crochet by a friend I had to rely Langley on TH-cam for skill developtment. You are, by far, the best instructor I've found that isn't in real life. You're clear, concise, and don't let your hands, lighting, or camera angles get in the way. You neither talk down to me or over my head. Thank you.

    I have been trying to make this type of afghan for YEARS and I could never follow the written instructions and it still amazes me that all I had to do was watch Mikey do this to the second row and it all clicked. Thank you Crochet Crowed for helping me with this one.

    LONG AGO I made afghans and a stocking with this stitch. I'm talking 1980s. I learned this from my mother-in-law. I haven't crocheted for around 25 years. Now I forgot how to do the stitch and your tutorial is fantastic. I'm definitely in need of a refresher course in crocheting. Thank you so much!

    Thank goodness I found your tutorial. I started the corner to corner and could not find a tutorial but started anyway. Now I know I'm doing the increase correctly. I was concerned as I start the decrease rows but now know how to do them. You are always so concise and do enough rows that we know what we are doing. Thank you

    Mikey your video is spot on. GREAT JOB. I remember doing this about 10 years or so. My mother in law taught me how to do it. I was talking to her about this and asking her if she remembered how to do it 2 weeks ago and she had forgot. Here you are with the pattern and a video to boot. Was your ears ringing. Lol. Thank you for the pattern and video. It was a fast and easy to do. This would be good for our next challenge. Well I'm off to get hookin my African Flower Granny square afghan. Enjoy :-)

    Dear Mikey, I really loved your project. So, I tried it. I changed it a little but love the results. I made 4 C2C triangles then, crocheted them together with a single stitch. Fits my bed perfectly. Thanks for the project! Happy Hooking!

    @darvit4788 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your tutorials are always so easy to understand & see how to do the project's basics. The c2c tutorials were most helpful to me as I am a more visual learner & the pattern I had for my 1st c2c blanket was only text / no photos or drawings to give me a clue where to attach stitches or how to turn the work. Once you work the stitches, this really is a fun & simple project & it works up quickly 😄👍 🥰

    @sleepypuppy29 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    FYI everyone, I just watched a tutorial (I forget who by but will write it here if anyone asks later) where a lady used this pattern for a shawl. It's amazing and, since so many of these comments are confused about the decrease section, it eliminates the need to decrease. Awesome!
