Betty McKnit, aka Beth McKee Elliott, is a crochet and knitting designer and instructor and the designer of the viral crochet patterns the 6-Day Kid Blanket and 6-Day Star Blanket.
The Birth of the 6-Day Crochet
The 6-Day Crochet concept was born from Betty’s desire to create projects that are beautiful but also achievable within a limited timeframe. The signature 6-Day Kid Blanket was a personal project turned viral sensation, captivating the hearts of crocheters globally. Its ingenious design has just enough variation between the rows to keep crocheters interested, but is repetitive enough to be easily memorized. Because of these elements, 6-Day Crochet projects work up excitingly quickly, and most crocheters, even beginners, can produce a stunning blanket in just six days, a feature that continues to challenge and entice eager crafters.
