I am a guy. My mother passed away a month ago. She was a great knitter. Weeks before she fell ill to the hospital I expressed to her my interest in learning how to crochet. She taught me eagerly and happily. I kept practising but when she fell ill I stopped. Now I am resuming and I want to honour my mother by learning more until I become as skilled as my mother. Thanks for the tutorial.

My condolences to you and your family for the loss of your mother. That’s a tough one. 😢🙏 Stay with Crystal and you will learn to make anything you ever thought you couldn’t make. She is by far the best crochet teacher I have ever watched. And as a bonus, she’s the sweetest and most humble person. Wishing you much success and pleasure on your crochet journey.

I'm so sorry that you lost your mom first of all. That is a pain like no other. I think she would be very proud of you right now because what you were doing is a tribute to her and you couldn't have come to a better group of people and a better teacher, I have been with this group for years and if you want to learn to crochet this is the place to begin. God bless you.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss, but what a beautiful way to honor her. I got my love of crochet from my Mother as well, who passed away almost 1yr. ago. So I can empathize with you. Best of luck on your journey! 💖🙏

I have real bad brain damage. You have made learning so much easier for me. Sometimes I even learn what you're teaching the first time. That's a big deal for me. Thank you

Lov e how you talk, rather than music, much easier to understand! Thank you!

I love the fact that you are very informative and repeat so I can understand … and so appreciate you have no distracting music playing while teaching ,like most other video sites! Thank you , you are a great teacher ..

I made my first garment kind of by accident 😉using this stitch. It ended up being a summer top. It was basically two rectangles crocheted to my size . I seamed the shoulders and sides and put a little cap sleeve on and called it done. I love this stitch for so many items.

That is so great 👍

This is just a beautiful stitch, thick enough for a blanket, but not stiff like some stitches.

Thank you for explaining and showing a lot of the stitches on the row. Some people just do 2 or 3 and stop. I have memory problems and I can't do complicated stitches because I lose count. My work ends up with holes in it so I don't try complicated fan patterns etc. I wish I could I love them. I like how you go through the stitches slowly and show where the hook has to go so thank you, you are helping me and I appreciate it. 😊

Kathy in Missouri here. After the video, I drove to Hobby lobby an hour away. The white/sage/kale Alpaca Twist had been calling my name for weeks. I drove home, and using this stitch, I am halfway through a soft blanket for my mother in law for Mother's Day . Feels like a hundred bunny rabbits on you. Love your videos. Thanks 😊

Very simple and easy instructions. Thank you for this video

This is so nice and easy enough for a beginner, which I am. I have watched many Crocheters on You Tube, but I think You really are my Favorite. I understand what Your doing. Thank You for doing these Videos.

I love the texture of this stitch, especially since I can actually do it...👍

Thank you. I’m on my second afghan for Christmas gifts. Looks great.

I think I will try to make a prayer shawl out of this stitch. It looks easy and fun.

I think the best for this Stich is multi colored ombre. It just displays the stitch better. I tried with a eold and color variation is the way this stitch looks the best! I also appreciate that it's easy. easy.

I made baby wash cloths with this stitch. Thank you for sharing.

This is such a fun and, easy crochetpattern!!

I love these simple stitches for blankets. They are just as pretty as the harder ones.

Ohhh I’ve used this. I was taught it as the “Suzette stitch”. Didn’t realize it had other names. 😊

The yarn you used is perfect for this stitch! Love the way it looks. I’ve seen this as the “Suzette stitch,” but “thicket stitch” is a much better descriptive name. Anyway, thanks for another inspiring tutorial! Gonna have to get some of this yarn & start another blanket using this stitch. Too beautiful to resist! ❤️😁

I would make a top. I appreciate your telling us it is not a yarn eater.

I was looking for this stitch , but did not know what it was called . I have some dishcloths to make for My Aunt Sue . Thanks , Crystal , for the tutorial . Love and Hugs .

This pattern has nice variety but is so simple. I think I am going to start a baby blanket. Thank you so much. 🥰🥰🥰🥰

This stitch is easy and beautiful and working on this as a baby blanket in pink ombre colors. ❤❤😊😊

I really like this going to make a baby blanket for my expected great grandchild,x

I’m using this stitch in a ladies top.It’s easy and a pretty stitch.🧶🙂

That’s a very pretty stitch, Crystal! I’m planning on using it to make some dishcloths and my granddaughter a cowl. Her husband is in the Air Force and they moved from Texas to Delaware!! I’m trying to keep them warm with blankets and things to wear to keep them warm!! Thank you, NORMA COLLINS FROM TEXAS

Thank you Crystal! I love it!!

I really like that stitch. I am going to make some dish cloths. Later I might try it on a blanket or a lap blanket. Thank you for the tutorial. I like it when the stitches do not use up a lot of yarn. Mary P.

Thanks for letting me know this stitch isn’t a yarn eater! I’m more likely to use it for a baby blanket or even a top now. Love your channel 😊

Thankyou Crystal im actually doing this stitch at the moment im making a scarf .😊😊❤❤

I think I’d like to try this one. My goodness it’s so hard to choose! I’m going to make a baby blanket for a gift I think.

Hey you, and my favorite one to turn to when I want a simple stitch. Making throws for family. This stitch is my favorite.The thicket stitch. No matter what yarn used, it turns out awesome. My trows that I make will be given to my very special peeps. Family, friends and anyone that has thrown a kindly "HELLO" Some one that knows me as I walk into a business. whether it be a gas station, or maybe even a comment in Walmart. Or the waitress that give us a beer after a long days work. You all are appreciated, so very much. This is why I crochet.........to give back. when you give an almost stranger a hand made throw. It will mean the world to them. And they will never forget the moment.

Well I watched the tutorial tonight and I'm making my five month old grand son a baby blanket. Nothing fancy and something easy. I live in north Alabama and it gets cold in the winter time. My daughter has lot of beautiful keepsake blankets. The kind that you want to keep spotless forever. That's not what I make. I call it a car blanket. Getting the kids in and out of the cars can be cold. So what i make needs to probably just stay in the car and that way they can just snuggle up while riding to and from day care the grocery store...you get the picture. So im giving this stitch a try instead of making a big granny square. Plus I use very colorful yarn to help learn their colors.

I have a long cardigan with this stitch made with a Pound of Love and I get tons of compliments on it! It is so easy and works up so fast! I appreciate that you used the Mandala Tweed though... it's nice to see how stitches work up in other yarns.

Kathy in Missouri here. I watched this, picked up my hook, and began a blanket using Alpaca twist (white/sage/and moss border. This stitch made it easy and feels like a hundred bunny rabbits . Thanks 😊

Love this stitch I've done this before did not know it was called the thicket stitch nice to know but that yarn worked up beautiful. ❤️🧶

Premier Puzzle yarn Color = Backgammon is what I'm using. Uncle Rich will like the color as well as the close stitch. Thanks again Crystal.

Thank you for this tutorial. I'm a beginner crocheter and wanting to tackle making a temperature blanket this year, but was looking for something other than single crochet for every row. I've been trying different tutorials for different stitches and not having much luck finding something that wasn't going to be do difficult for the task. Then I stumbled across your video and I was able to easily follow along and quickly crochet up a little patch. I'm excited to go start my blanket.

Love this I love the one row repeat

I have made many blankets with this stitch, had no idea what it was called, Its so nice and easy Thanks Crystal for reminding me about it. I guess old age is catching up. Have been planning lap blankets for two of my elderly neighbours.Nice yarn easy stitch , should be nice and quick

I like it. Thank you for saying it is not a yarn eater. So helpful.

I’m going to make a scarf 🧣 great stitch

Thank you SO much! I was getting very frustrated with video after video that i. Was not able to understand (I had an accident 5 years ago and was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia last week), but I found you. Your tutorial was perfect in every way and because of it, my first grandbaby due in March will be rolling in blankets. Thank you again, be well.

I am actually making a lap blanket for myself, (if nobody takes it from me. LOL). I am making it using this stitch, and I love it. I tried 2 other stitches for this blanket, and I didnt like them. I had done something similiar, before, so I decided to just try this without knowing what I was doing. Funny thing.. i even did the single across the first row like you did. Now I know what it is called. I was calling it the" Patti was frustrated and just made up her own stitch" stitch. The real name is much easier to remember. I love the yarn you used for this. I am making a gradient starting with an unusual whitish yarn, and then shades of glacier greens to dark greens. Idk how it will look, so I may end up using the yarn you did. Thanks for the tutorial, Crystal!

Looks like a warm stitch

I'm trying this stitch for the first time on a blanket

Hi Crystal been a while since I have been here. But I needed to make a scarf with this Big Twist Grey tweed yarn and I thought this would be the perfect stitch and it is!!! Its beautiful. So simple.l I love it. So glad you are still here sharng your awesome videos. HAPPY HOLICAYS!!! ♥

I love this stitch. It looks nice and easy to to. I haven't really used it yet, only made a small sample, but I'm planning to crochet a temperature blanket of my birth year. This stitch seems perfect for it.

I know you called this a Thicket stitch... I have always called it the Suzette stitch... but they are exactly the same by either name... I have used this stitch for so many projects... blankets, (even a king size one using bernat blanket yarn for my adult grandson...worked out great) and also for hanging kitchen towels, two crocheted together for a hot pad/pot holder, etc... It is so easy and works up rather quickly... and such a nice texture.😃 And I just love your tutorials ♥

This stitch is perfect for blankets for the animal shelter! 😻 Thanks so much 😸 Stay Safe 😷💕🌈
