Crochet Geek - Abstract Crochet Cats

Apr 24, 2012 - When I was first learning and didn't understand multiples, I just crocheted a chain to the width I wanted my blanket. I just sewed in any extra tail or chain. If you look in the video details, I also have a link to my crochet blog and symbol instructions

Apr 24, 2012 - I dont quite get the multiples. :( I always have trouble with this. Is there a simple way to figure this out? So what would be the # of chains per stitch in this pattern? What # would I add 5 to?

Mar 2, 2012 - hi I absolutely love your videos!! I was wondering if this could be altered to work as a boarder around a granny square?

Jan 25, 2012 - What size did your blanket turn out to be?

tjw1963 Says:

Jan 15, 2012 - Thank you. Viewers told me a few years ago they wanted the finished piece at the beginning and at the end. For the older tutorials that do not show what it is at the beginning, most have a link to my crochet blog. There will be a picture there as well.

Nov 21, 2011 - I want to add my thank you for all your video work. You ARE a great teacher. I am a beginner and picked this right up. I am using four colors, three different shades of pink/red and it looks beautiful!. I chained 200 and am using a F/5 size hook to give me a large lap blanket. I am thrilled with how it is coming along. I am thinking of using a shell boarder done in black to make the colors pop. Thank you again!

Oct 26, 2011 - That Abstract Crochet Cat pattern is just shut the f*** up CUTE. I can't even stand it. OH MY GOD!

tjw1963 Says:

Oct 20, 2011 - You can use two colors. The only way to learn is to ask questions. No question is a dumb question.

AdvantageousAngie Says:

Oct 20, 2011 - Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but can you use only two colors for this pattern?

Sep 21, 2011 - I wish you much continued success with crochet. I did send you a tutorial for sewing in the tails. I appreciate your kinds words, thank you.

tjw1963 Says:

Sep 21, 2011 - I do have a tutorial for sewing in yarn tails. I will send it to you.

controlthishere Says:

Sep 21, 2011 - Thank you so much for this! I am new to crocheting, and ive been really successful in this pattern already! You are a great teacher. At the moment Ive just tested this pattern with the length you used in the tutorial, but maybe when I am done I will make a blanket in this size. I guess Ill just turn this one in to a scarf. Is there a tutorial about how to get rid of those pesky end bits of yarn after you change colours? Thanks!
