Hey friends! The yarn I’m using here is a Tedi-specific brand (the store I got it from here in Germany) as far as it says on the label. It says “DIY handmade” and “Maxima” on it but in the specifics it only says Tedi… (you could check tedi.com but I couldn’t find anything 😅) If you want to find similar weight yarn it’s 1000g = 965m as I said in the beginning of the video, 4.5-5mm hook or needles, but I used 8mm 🤗

Ijust love the giant granny blanket and you showing the knot to make the yarn change thank you😊

watching this while finishing up a blanket I also made out of a giant ball of yarn bigger than my head was a treat hehe~ your blanket turned out lovely! the pink is soooo bright, I love it!

Girl! I just saw you’re latest video in Japan and now I’m hooked 🥹 (Maybe this will make sense if you ever watch my next video but I’ve wanted to learn Japanese for forever now) Also congrats on finishing the blanket!! It’s truly something to go through these giant balls in one go 😁 thank you so much!

Thank you so much, that’s awesome! 😍 What’s your current project?

Oh wow! I just made an huge granny square blanket and finished it in a little over a week with about 1-2 s of work a day. I made it to fit a little bigger than a queen bed, and added four rows + a border on the edges of it. I switched colors every other row. So many ends to weave in 🥹

Wow to you actually!! Queen bed? 😍 I feel the pain about the ends.. the first one I showed will hopefully as big as yours with a thousand ends as well.. the way we suffer for our crafts 😅🥰

When doing these and changing colors, can the ends be crocheted over instead of woven in? So far I've been sticking with variegated yarns because I already know the weaving ends is going to deter me. The few projects I've done, the weaving or sewing just kills my fingers because of my carpal tunnel. My fingers go numb in five minutes. I'd love to be able to use other colors and change rows instead of solid squares, but again, the ends are what stop me.

@rabiaberceste

I think you can weave it in as you go but the problem with this kind of blanket or stitch is the gap inbetween so it might show more than in a project that uses a tigher pattern 🤔 Another thing you could do is maybe don’t weave them in completely but kinda fix them a little and then sew another blanket at the backside and that would hide them anyways, I don’t know if there would be any ends showing with time tho.. And the last thing is to just leave the ends and pretend like that’s how it’s supposed to be 😁

@Kiertiana

9 ай бұрын

@rabiaberceste 😆 that last suggestion! I wouldn't be able to bring myself to do that. The completionist in me would not like that. Weaving in as I go is probably my best option if there are no suitable alternatives, I guess. 🤷‍♀️ Thanks!! You're so fast to reply. I look forward to more crochet videos of yours!

Oh yes! It was my only yarn purchase for that month 🥲 They have one with really bright colors now, I wish I could’ve bought that back then but oh well

It was fun watching you make this blanket. I also was surprised it didn't turn out larger with the giant skein of yarn. Do you know how many yards you used for the entire blanket?

@rabiaberceste

9 ай бұрын

Yes I definitely hoped it would be larger than that.. but I think it will work with that first one I showed 🙌🏻 I just checked and I’m guessing I used around 1300m which google says is about 1421,7 yards ☺️

Great job!

Your blanket turned out beautiful. I would love to find a huge ball of yarn like you did; my goal would also to make a continuous granny blanket. ❤

Thank you so much! You should definitely try it, even if you don’t find a 1 kg ball,just a few more ends to weave in 🤣

I don't test swatch I just start crocheting and if I don't like the gage or tenon I just frog the whole thing and start over so I don't waste any yarn

We're did you get that yarn at? What is it called what brand makes it?

What is the brand of your yarn? Where did you purchase it?

Did you use 8ply yarn?

Where did you purchase 1kg of yarn? Love it. I’m also doing a granny blanket.

I found it at a “Tedi” here in Germany but I’m not sure where you can find it anywhere else 😕

Do you turn your work each round? Just wondering if i should do that when i make my first blanket or if it'll be fine just to continue all around without turning.

@rabiaberceste

8 ай бұрын

I didn’t turn for this one but I turned for the first one I showed, the one with the color change. I have to say if you use yarn that’s anything between 3-6 mm I would definitely recommend turning! I saw it in a youtube video and it made the smaller one definitely sturdier, I can look for that video and link it if you want ☺️

I’m really not trying to gatekeep 🤣 It says “DIY handmade” and this one is called “Maxima” but it actually is a Tedi (the store I got it from) specific brand as far as I know.. Maybe you can find something similar with the measurements: 1000g equal 965m, it says 4,5-5 but as you saw I used 8 😊
