Love your handspun! That combo is beautiful
Thank you 💕
How many wraps per inch is your singles yarn?
No idea.I just spin 😃
This video is so simple and was so fun to crochet along to, thank you so much for the simple step by step! beautiful cape. Can't wait to see how mine turns out :)
@@JavahutTTV Thank you so much ❤️
Versatile and warm😍👌❗️
Just at the beginning of this tutorial and wondering how you think it would be (drape etc) made up in dk weight cotton?
@@traceyallen8286 it would be drapey and I recon it would look lovely. Have a nice flow to it.
Just love this. Heading out to the yarn shop. Thank you.
@@doreencook5269 thank you so much ❤️
Do you have a written pattern?
@@linkster57 Sorry no as I don't know how to write or read patterns.
@@luckyplatypus thank you. R
I absolutely love the color palette you chose❤
@@simplymadebyhand Thank you. This is why I love spinning. You never know what you're going to get😄.
Where did you buy these beautiful yarns?
@@patricebarfield307 Hobium which is based in Turkey. www.hobiumyarns.com
This is amazing. Thank you so much for this tutorial.
@@hrandall7028 thank you ❤️
I want to use scraps but I wanna use 4 is that ok 😊
Yep, you can use anything just make sure to measure the width and length you want and work from there. Hope that makes sense.
Love it, is it one size fits all?
Thank you. Yes one size fits all😀
❤❤❤Beautiful work❤❤❤
Thank you ❤️
So relaxing ❤❤❤
Totally agree 👍🏻💯
Beautiful ❤❤❤
Thank you ❤️
Thank you love this stitch ❤❤❤
One of my favourites
👍👍👍❤❤❤
Made I won’t know what to do with that beautiful wool🤣🤣🤣just kidding ❤❤❤❤
Awesomeness ❤❤❤
Do you have a written pattern for sell?
Sorry, no. I can't write or read patterns.☺️
@@luckyplatypus Thanks for responding.
I would like to make this Cardigan. What size is your pattern? I’m in size XL. I would also like to make a size small for my daughter.
Because it is worked length ways measure the back of the person and do as many rows for the back that makes that measurement. For the front do at least 3/4 of the back measurement in the amount of rows needed for that measurement so the front panels overlap. You can do as many stitches as you like to get the length you want. Same for the arms. Hope that helps☺️
@@luckyplatypus yes that certainly does make sense. Now I need to get the yarn. Love that mustard color. They have lots of pretty colors. Thanks for replying back❤️
Vad fina
Thank you❤️
Hi form Poland
Hello there.
Beautiful yarn 😊
This is amazing, thank you! Could one add arm slits?
Thank you ❤️. You could add arms but a bit difficult with this style of pattern.
❤👍🏻
🥳🏆❣️
Morning love your scarf. We are coming into our summer as you enter your autumn /winter I think but I great project
Thank you❤️
❤
Beautiful
Thank you ❤️
I love that it’s one piece. Thank you! 😘❤️🌹
Thank you ❤️
Nice clear tutorial
Thank you ❤️
Awesome video, explained the pattern really well. Appreciate you telling us how we can make the poncho work for us, depending on yarn we are using or if we wanted to make it bigger.😊
My question is, what if you want it to be more increased and flowy? 24:25 Do you keep repeating the "5 rows no increase" and then a "5 rows increase"? You did 5 no increase rows 20:57 If so, then that's great and so easy to follow. Thanks so much. I saw this video in the link below, and the poncho is beautiful but the woman's instruction pattern was so confusing that I got frustrated. lol Was wondering if this was the same method perhaps? ua-cam.com/video/70tXDOMRQzg/v-deo.html&pp=ygUmY3JvY2hldCBwb25jaG8gc2luZ2xlIGNyb2NoZXQgc3RpdGNoZXM%3D
Yes to the first part of your question. Just keep repeating the pattern 😉 Second part of your query, wow she is so confusing but yes it does look like she is using the same method. If you use a lighter yarn or bigger hook this will also help with the flowing look. Hope that helped and happy crocheting 🧶❤️
@@luckyplatypus Thank you! Yes, she put the pattern in the description but I tried it and it didn't add up, I've only done pointed ponchos and never a "curved" cape like one or caplet or a squareish one... (haha don't know the terms). Yours is the first I found with a "curved" type of poncho. Yay.
Hi, thanks so much for the tutorial.
OOH More Hobbii!! Love it!
I always love Hobbii hauls!! My fave yarnstore!
WHy do you call every one GUY when most people who crochet are woman that is rude and lazy did. you go to school? Girl female woman lass NOTGUY
Love this! Beautiful work! I want to make this for my daughter using thicker yarn; can you advise how to I can follow this pattern but scale it down to a 2 year old size?
Measure the length and width of your daughter and do the start chain to the width and the amount of rows to the length you measured. Keep double checking as you work up to make sure fits. Hope that makes sense.
Excellent video
Thank you ❤️
Cool pattern! I’m curious about something though…at about 22:30, when you did the slip stitch to close the round, it appeared that you went into the stitch from the back and did a yarn under for the slip stitch. The next slip stitch appeared normal. I noticed the ‘slip stitch from back’ once or twice more. I’ve never seen someone join in the round like that before. Is it bc you turned the work after every round? Instead of continuing clockwise for the whole sleeve?
When the sleeve is facing the front I go from the back for the slip stitch, turn my work and when the sleeve is on the back side I slip stitch from the front. The reason I do this is because I find it gives a nicer closer seam. But you can do either way. Whichever you are comfortable with. I only work in the round without turning if the entire jumper is worked in the round. This keeps the pattern the same. For this jumper turning the work after every row on the sleeve keeps the pattern the same throughout the jumper. Hope that makes sense😊
I'm about halfway through the poncho at the moment. It's a great design! However, I'm going to be way short on the length. I'm using exactly the same yarn and a 5.5mm hook and I don't crochet tight, but I've done 67 rows and it's only down to my waist!! I'm gonna have to do probably 90(?) rows to get to thigh level. Are you a very loose crocheter?
I wouldn't say I was a loose crocheter. I don't know what is happening for you.
You did do half double crochet not single crochet? I'm racking my brain on how it can be so short?
@@luckyplatypus yes, definitely HDC. I've just finished an HDC blanket, so it's a stitch I know well! 🤣
@@luckyplatypus I did the same number of chains as you (120) with a 6.5mm hook, then switched to my 5.5mm. The width is about 90cm.
@@MsDeepblue2 I just don't know??????🥴🤔
So pretty 😊
Thank you! 😊
Great video...first jumper/sweater video I have actually understood all the steps. Thanks for making it easy for a beginner.
Thank you ❤️. Enjoy and happy crocheting 🧶
You just popped up into my UA-cam feed. This jumper is beautiful. I think the yarn is gorgeous and makes the jumper so wonderful. Thanks for the great tutorial. I’m saving to make later. ✌️❣️🧶
Thank you ❤️
This video just popped up on my feed…UA-cam is so weird. I’m subscribed to a bunch of crochet tutorial channels. The jumper looks great, I’ve downloaded for a future project.
Thank you and happy crocheting 🧶❤️
This is an uncomplicated pattern. It's important for beginners to see how easy something like this can be. Very nice!
Thank you ❤️
Lovely yarn, sadly dont think we can get in UK
You can make with any yarn that is soft and snuggly😊
This looks like sirdar jewelspun yarn
Very similar.
Hi, I’m from the U.K. as well. You may already know but The WoolWarehouse website stock Patons yarns. 💜🇬🇧
@@62wyattthat’s what I’m thinking of using to make this. Think the softness and drape will be lovely. Or even Caron Simply soft 💜🇬🇧
Very nice pattern and colors.
Thank you! 😊
Hello, do you sell your home spun wool?
Yes. The cost is $30 AUD per 200m skein. Postage extra.
Thank you for your reply :) @@luckyplatypus . Would you mind sharing a link what wool/skeins/colors you have for sale please?
@@gypsyj2537 if you go to my Facebook page @luckyplatypus I will post up the roving (fluffy stuff to spin up) I have yet to spin. I don't have anything spun up at the moment. I have a lot of roving to so if there is a particular colour you want let me know and I will show you what I have.
Like forward to making this poncho. Thank you for the clear and concise instructions.
Thank you ❤️
