Great question!! Looking at a crochet hook sizing chart I see a size 7 as a 4.50mm crochet hook. 🤗

Great question!  Go ahead and just work the square up as the pattern calls, and then when we go to block our squares to straighten everything out (which is optional but encouraged) your square will reach that 13 inch mark.  😊❤️🧶 Have no worries!  It will all work out.  😁

Thanks Mary!  She's In!

You can wash it but it is not necessarily meant to work with water.  You can find something to make with this theme.

Thank you so much Michaela!

Oh, I only show yards so you can then take the information and use whatever yarn you want.  All you have to do is take the number of yards needed for the whole blanket and divide it by how many yards are in the skein of yarn you want to use.  That will tell you how many skeins you will need to make that blanket.  😊🧶❤️

Totally get what you're saying.  You are right.  This stitch would be easier with a thicker yarn but I really wanted to show people this stitch.  Even if you have to slow down a bit to make it happen, I hope you think it's pretty.

OH!  I'm a hugger! 

I'm so glad you think so!
