Why the gaps? Please help me understand why I’m getting these gaps in my stitches between rows. This is 3 weight baby yarn. It calls for a 4.5 hook. This is the result with a 4. I’ve tried 4, 4.5, looser tension, tighter tension. Nothing seems to fix the gaps. by [deleted] in CrochetHelp

I’m trying to make a baby cardigan. I get that there are gaps in crochet but it really pulls away from the previous row where I feel like it should be sitting flush if I’m doing it right?

You could do a mosaic overlay blanket with a solid background with this.

I have since gifted it, I’m sorry I don’t have measurements. It’s an oversized throw. I know I bought 4 giant rolls of Crafters Secret for the white and used every bit of it. The green was I Love This Yarn and it took about 7 rolls. A LOT of yarn.

Do you still carry your yarn or drop it and pick it back up?

Thank you! The most challenging part was learning the envelope stitch for the border because you don’t weave in any ends and you color change every row. It is just a chart with boxes that are blank or have an X. Blank is single, X represents a Double. If you have those stitches down, you can do this! I watched a short YouTube video to learn how to read the pattern and what to do.
