Robin, I want to thank you for helping me recapture the legacy my grandmother gave me as a girl. She taught me to crochet when I was young, but I forgot over the years and then she passed away in 2020. I wanted to pick it back up in honor of her, but I couldn't remember anything. I tried many other TH-cam crochet tutorials and I almost gave up. The way they held their yarn made my hand cramp. And then I found your channel and your natural and comfortable style...and now I have made blankets and amigurumi for my children and am loving every moment of crocheting! I love having this skill from my Grandma again. A piece of her than continues on now, thanks to your excellent teaching and detailed guidance. Thank you, thank you!

Ok Robin, I thought this was going to be difficult but I call this the magic stitch😂. After a couple of rows I can see the pattern it is like magic !!!!
I started learning crochet at the beginning of the year and I've learned almost everything I can so far through your videos. Thanks for the great videos and the great explanations
J'aime beaucoup ce point , j'adore tes tutos , très bien expliqués , très bien filmés et aussi les sous titres , j'adore tout ce beau travail que tu partages , merci beaucoup Robin , contente de t'avoir trouvé sur youtube . Bonne soirée 😘💜
Hi Robin, I love your tutorials 💖 you always explain in a manner that is easy to follow. I've done the bean stitch a few times, but this zig zag pattern is different. Love it. ❤️ Well done 👏
This is a very nice stitch and so easy to learn with your well presented video. Went out today and bought some lovely yarn for a baby blanket for a new grand niece. This is the 4th stitch I have used in a blanket following your videos in the last 9 months. Thank you so much for sharing. 🙂🇨🇦
This stitch looks so beautiful. You have already uploaded another stitch even before I tried the previous one! I like the way you clearly explain, Robin!!
@@HookedbyRobin yes, Robin! Actually, I followed your videos and did good number of projects!! I even recommend you to anyone who asks me about learning crochet. I know those who asked me are not serious in learning, but I mention you
You explain everything very clearly and well. I wonder why your demonstration piece looks so much bigger than the piece in the background. Different yarn and hook size?
Hi Robin 💖yes I totally agree with you that a puff stitch can be a yarn eater , having said that it is a beautiful stitch but I’m happy to give this stitch a go ! Happy Halloween 🎃 👻
I absolutely love the bean stitch. Thank you for introducing it. Your explanation is clear and easy to follow. Thank you once again from a very grateful viewer. I also love your channel❤
I can see making smaller squares out of this stitch with a nice border and do a mock quilt out of it. I just bought a bundle of wool yarn and I may try this technique for a puffy quilt-like afghan. Thank you for your videos, by the way! I just started in Septembef, and I have learned a lot about crochet within the past month because of your videos.
That sounds like a fantastic idea, I would love to see a photo of it when you have finished it if you didn't mind?😀 Also welcome to the world of crochet, it is the best!x
I was just looking for a nice pattern for a little pouch, I will be trying this out! Your tutorials are always so easy to understand, thank you so much for your effort
I love this because it's not a huge puff stitch. I might take apart something I'm working on with big bobbles (haven't got but a few rows) and work on this instead!
you truly have stepped up my skill levels this year ;) I'm using up yarns Ive had for years cuz Im so fast at crocheting now haha I love learning new stitches and creating new projects based on them. I won blue ribbons at the county fair making afghans with some patterns I learned from you.
Hello Robin!! I absolutely love this bean stitch. I have crocheted an entire blanket with this stitch...unfortunately, I made the width shorter than I wanted, and I was wondering if you have a border that works with this bean stitch? I sure would love to see a tutorial if you have one. Thanks so very much. I just love your patterns, and you explain everything so easily.
Absolutely love this stitch and your blue sample! I'm not personally a fan of puff stitches as they just feel like they take ages, but I'll definitely give this a go! Thank you as always ❤
Hi! Love all your tutorials! My question is: if I make a border for a bean stitch blanket, how many SC or HDC should I make per bean stitch? And where do I place the border stitch? Thanks!
@@robinmoore7202 I tried it last week at s knitting group I wanted a fabric to drape so tried a slightly larger hook than yarn called for and didn't have my other hooks with me at the time. It was a project only going to be done at the groups as I don't have a recipient yet. So Iay try a smaller hook next time.
I personally quite like the puffy edging as is, however, if you wanted a more traditional border, I'd suggest something simple and plain - a few rounds of sc perhaps? X
The bean stitch is one of my favorites........super easy, and oh so squishy!!! Is there a way to straighten out the edges without a border? I suck at borders but not having a straight edge makes me insane, almost like a crookedly hung picture on the wall. 😂😂
Possibly - you might find the Mini Bean Stitch a better candidate for such thick yarn (although I'd try a small sample first as I've not tried puff type stitches with such a bulky yarn before) th-cam.com/video/cEnpukbSRFA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1U8dMcPNvZNjHzX3
Thank you so much for this tutorial! ❤❤ There are others on TH-cam but yours is the best. I’m making a baby blanket with the bean stitch and am wondering what kind of border you would recommend for this stitch.

Newbie here, how big a chain should I do for a baby blanket
Hi Nicola, there is no set amount as everyone likes different sizes.😀 I tend to eye ball it, chain as wide as I fancy then go from there.
Amazing stitch thank you so very much

Thank you, you too!😃
I tried this stitch with a DK yarn but it was too gappy. I might try it with a thicker yarn.
Would it help if you dropped a hook size?
