Did you use the bulky yarn for your potholder? Your pattern didn’t specify yarn type or crochet Hook #.
Hi Frances, for the potholders I used Knit Picks Dishie yarn, which is a worsted weight cotton yarn. The hook size is G-6 (4mm).
This blanket is lovely! I am doing it and it is really easy. But how do you close it? How do you do the end?
At the end of the last row, Ch1, turn and work around the border of the blanket evenly in single crochet for 2 rounds.
Many thanks! The first blanket for one of my two twins is almost done! So lovely.. let’s start the second! 😉
Hey, thank you for your tutorial, it’s beautiful! How would you go about decreasing this stitch each row to create a tapered end? Thanks 🙂
Thats a good question… I’m not really sure – I’d have to try it out and get back to you!
Hello, would this be a good stitch for dish cloths?
Hi Cara, yes it could definitely be used for dish cloths!
Hello
Would the bumby blanket crochet up c brett Dk please
Thank you for your question! Absolutely, feel free to use the yarn that suits your preference. Just a little heads-up: if you opt for a different yarn weight than what the pattern specifies, like a DK weight yarn, the final look and feel of your project might vary. The pattern is tailored for a heavier weight yarn, so if you go with DK, I recommend using a smaller hook size and extending the length of your foundation chain to achieve the best results.
