    What a beautiful blanket. After seeing your first video on how to do the square, I noticed my mother had a similar square in her kitchen that she use as a pot holder. My mother is 80 years old and she tells me that this was the first granny square that she learned from her mother. After seeing your video I thought wouldn’t be nice if I made her her blanket using those square. Thank you Anya as always I love your video.

    I’m making a larger version in wisteria, violet, bluebell, lavender and plum. I notice you leave some squares without the starburst. As I’ve made eight of each colour I’m going to leave three blank of each colour with the proviso that when I’ve crocheted it together and i think it needs starbursts adding to plain squares I can then work them in later. Thanks Anna for this inspiring blanket. I’m making it for my very ill mum.

    This is crazy... I'm making a baby blanket for my soon to be grandson and I made filet squares like you the difference is I didn't make the starburst in the middle, I made it in three colors and two of the colors have both open and closed squares (one square of 12 is open and one square of 12 is closed squares), and I have single crochets along the outer perimeter. This video popped up on my recommendations tonight as I was finishing my last square. I was going to join them differently but I like the way you joined your squares so I think I may copy you( I was going to join them with sc no chain st.). Your blanket is beautiful. I would love to send you a picture of my finished project. Please let me know where to send it.

    I want to make this blanket but I was just concerned about the embroidery that is done in a few of the squares. What happens to the back, do you just have to sew the ends in. I don’t want to put a backing on the blanket…❤. Is the yarn available in a kit from you ?
    Thank you for all your patience and your gorgeous tutorials love it.

      This blanket was made with our natural colour pack which contains 3 balls of each colour containing 15 balls in total. This will give you a a single bed size blanket. To make it to the size shown you only need half of that.

    I just finished making this blanket and absolutely love it, however, all of my stars are coming undone!!!! I tried tying knots in them and trimming the ends but they still come out. I tried doing the wrap around twice that you showed in your other video (with the pink version of the blanket) and they are still coming out. I have had to take them all out and now I have the finished blanket but not stars. SUCH a HUGE disappointment. Any suggestions for how I can try them again and have them not come undone?

    This tutorial is very good I love it . I know several have asked for a pattern and you’ve not answered. I went to your website to see if there were patterns for sale and I couldn’t find any .
    Can you tell me if there is only the video and no written pattern ?
    Also the way you end and start threads , for the star ,they won’t fall apart when it’s being laundered

      Hi Virginia, no there is no written pattern for this tutorial yet. About the stars, they won't come undone when you wash the blanket as I have washed mine already twice. When I have a written pattern, I will make sure everyone will find it. Hope this helps.

    I wish you didn't skip showing the joining in the other direction of the strips. What did you do in the intersection of each strip??? It may not be obvious to everyone. Even just showing how you did one intersection would have been helpful.

    • @OpheliaTalks
      @OpheliaTalks  2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Exactly the same! Just do a CH and go over to the next two squared! In fact that direction is easier as they are already attached!! Try it you will see! Happy crocheting! Anja xxx
