Yeah, it's like subconsciously typing fast. I actually make a lot less typos that way, but once I realise and start to pay more attention to it, The mistakes usually just start rolling in. Like now, I've made like 8 typos on this one comment.
Yeah exactly! Like I find when I'm crocheting the same stitch over and over again I can't go too fast even though I could because otherwise I keep splitting the wool with my hook
I started today and honestly just making the first chain was so hard! Everyone makes it look easy 😭 This was like two months ago ..I can chain now 😂 but thanks for all the nice comments 💕 I’ve also made a lot of things like bags, hats, clothing etc thanks to this channel and a few different ones. (a few people said chaining was easy for them. it was the tension of my chain I was having trouble with. It would be tight in some places and the rest a mess 😂)
I know right like I just started this month and can only do simple chains and crochets and even then there are always mistakes everywhere 😭 I have tried to make cute moons and just granny squares and such but it’s no use it’s soooo hard 😭😭😭 but at least I’m getting better.
I’ve been crocheting for 49 years. My first project was a granny square pillow consisting of 4 squares (4 rows) and single crocheted together on the front and 1 big square for the back. I gave it to my Mom. It was still on her sofa when she passed away 3 years ago so it’s back in my collection of pillows.
That’s really sweet, and maybe you can pass the pillow on to your child or niece (etc), too, someday, once they’re old enough to understand why it’s so special. A sentimental person is a kind person to me, so I’m sure your mother was a wonderful woman. Condolences for your loss, and may she RIP until you meet again one day ❤😊 And PS- I just started crocheting only a few days ago, and I’m starting to get the hang of it… but still, seeing you’ve done it for 49 years gave me hope that I’ll keep getting better and continue doing it and then, someday it’ll be me on here (or on some weird future-app haha) commenting about how I’ve been at it for decades, so… thanks for the unintentional motivation! 😅
Aww that is a beautiful story 🥹♥️. I wish if I kept my first project too. It’s been 14 years since I’ve started crocheting. My first project was a phone cover 🥹.. I gift it to my friend, and we no longer have any connection with each other 🥹.
The key is not to think about it. Just pretend you can totally go fast and pray. It's like a kid getting hurt on the playground. They're not hurt until you act like they're hurt. You can crochet/knit fast until you start doubting that you can. Schrodingers loops or something idk
Istg I can crochet fast without looking at what I'm doing while watching a show without skipping ONE single stitch, as soon as I wonder how I'm doing this in autopilot so well and look down, when I try to go back to the pace I was at without looking I start fucking up, it's like as soon as I acknowledge what I was doing it's gone
I remembered the first time I started crocheting my hands are trembling and sweating 😭😂 But as time goes on and the more you do it eventually it will feel like a breeze ❤❤❤ Good luck to everyone who started! 🎉
It’s okey 🥹♥️. The finished project will let us forget about the speed. It’s really an amazing feeling when we have a final project between our hands 😍. So enjoy the moment and always be happy that you can crochet and create a beautiful project. I’ve been crocheting for 14 years and I’m the slowest among all of the crocheters but I don’t care anymore as I get super excited and happy when I hold my finished project which always lead me to forget about the time I’ve spent and the tiredness 🥹♥️.
My speed was in the negative when I started crocheting cause I had to redo almost every stitch I made because I either messed up or the size was inconsistent, but now I’m pretty fast and efficient.
Remember you are doing it for your pleasure not anyone else’s it’s your hobby & maybe one day you will be thrilled with yourself as you finish making something you’re happy with it’s not a race it’s your fun time 😊❤
Just enjoy the process 😉. Crocheting meant to be a relaxing and peaceful hobby to return to when you need it 😍, so don’t stress yourself over the speed. Whether you are fast or slow, just let it be and enjoy the moment 😍.. Believe me you will be so proud and super happy of your finished project that will let you forget about the time spent on it and the tiredness 😅.
Preach 👏🏻 I started nice and slow and now, a year later, I’m so much faster and have started learning how to crochet without looking to really challenge myself and step up my game!
Fast is really not helpful. When I go slow I find that I get my rows done much faster, the stitches are even and they look just the way I want them. When I go fast I get tense and when I go slow I can relax. Sometimes I pick up my speed but I feel like my mind has gone away from my project when I do that.
I love to crochet but if I go longer than 10-15 min I have terrible hand pain; fast or slow. I did have a cortisone injection yesterday. I hope it helps.
I tried picking up new hobbies and i kept on seeing these crochet vids it made me interested! My very first project was a flower coaster!🌸 Tried making cute acc like fingerless gloves! I also learned that i need to use a nice quality yarn... i hope i get better! I started learning all the stiches😊
I love crocheting but I always have trouble with the pulling my hook through the loops part- I always end up need to pull the yarn over the hook myself 😅
I can definitely relate. We all start somewhere & it depends on how you decide to progress, to get where you’re at now. It’s a work in progress! lol. Literally!
When i first started crocheting i kept messing up the first row for like 2 days, and was finally able to make something while i was in class. I was actually so close to dropping crocheting because of my perfectionist tendancies, but I'm so glad i didnt cause this is such a fun hobby 🥹
Doing crochet from last 4 years and I crochet a designer headband in 20 mins 👍 practice makes perfect I remember being total noob back in 2020 I couldn't make single crochet or chain without mistakes
as someone who has started crochet almost a year ago, yes! its very hard in the beginning. i quit after buying one skein cuz i couldnt chain, but i started again and it got very easy!
I’m a beginner and I’ve never had motivation to try an actual project because all the ones I’ve tried I haven’t understood the tutorial for. But now that I found one I’m much faster. I always start out slower but if it’s a project that has a lot of the same stitches (like the scarf I’m currently making) it gets much faster to make
My speed when I need this project due by the next day vs my speed when I have an essay, 10 chapters to read, a speech to present and a final that’s 40 percent of my grade due tomorrow
The first year I was just learning, not very smoothly, the second year I started the crocheting business & it was quite smooth and fast, but for some reason, almost in the 3rd year, my crocheting movements were very slow. I don't know why my hands often get tired and sweaty easily. :'(
I’ve been crocheting for about a year now, and I’m currently working on a mesh top. I struggled at first because it was new to me but now it’s so easy to do.
I started 3 days ago and I am so socked at what I’ve made so far i wasn’t even thinking I could make those I started bec my friend’s birthday was coming up and I wanted to make her something so that’s why i started crocheting and I love it so far
Yeah but honestly when I started crotchet it came naturally mainly cuz I was a rainbow loomer and I did loomigurmis and stuff like that so it was pretty easy to move to crotchet
i've been crocheting over a year now, and i CAN crochet fast but i choose to never do it bc i like to crochet. The slower you are, the more you can crochet. Finished projects are cool but I never use it (only beanies)
Currently working on a beanie and I noticed how I'm a little bit faster than whenever I decided to pick the hobby back up. The key is to relax and just have fun.❤
I can crochet faster then what I do . I more or less just enjoy when I’ve finally finished my project I was working on . To anyone learning don’t think crocheting super fast is easier or better then taking your time , you make more mistakes and have to redo more stitches when you speed through a project. You’ll find your rhythm in how you hold the string and the crochet hook and how fast works best for you ! Tips for holding the hook play around with it and go for whatever feels best to your hand … I use to hold mind like a pen and found I actually do better and it’s more comfortable for me to hold it with the side of my index finger and thumb and let it rest in my hand , I also don’t hold the yarn as shown in most videos , I just do what’s best fits me and I’ve made some really beautiful projects! Don’t give up and you’ll figure it all out , be patient with yourself ❤
I started crocheting when i was young but ut was only the first chain because doing more was to hard but yesterday my mom taught me how to do more and i went faster than i expected
i've found that it's not so much that i can make the stitches faster (tho that is part of it), but more so I dont need to spend as much time finding the right hole, making sure I'm yarn over'ing at the right time, etc. Plus i have to re-do mistakes less often (tho i still do make loads of mistakes lol)
I was taught how to crochet by my mom when I was about six years old. It came back very naturally as an adult when I started making things for friends who were having their kids. I put it down for a while because I didn’t have any kids of my own, and it was just too hard to make pink blankets. I picked it up again and made a ton of things for myself and others. Put it down for a bit and picked it up again and I am still pretty slow actually. There are some things I do faster than others but for the most part, I’m slow. I don’t whip up projects one after another😢
Just how it is with routine and habit of anything, but I still prefer to slow down and take my time. I found that more often than not, getting too comfortable in a routine of going “fast” creates a lot of small mistakes that I wouldn’t have ever made if I had just taken the time to focus more on the piece itself instead of racing to get it done quickly.
I can crochet a lot faster than I choose to because then I start thinking about it too much and start fumbling

“Faster” just looks like more confidence in what you’re doing ❤

Don't worry, soon enough you're gonna be THE shit

I do origami/crochet i crochet for 4 months and i am fast
Me toooo :')
I crocheting very slow & my hands hurt easily.
Idk why :')

I only started about 2 weeks ago crocheting for several hours everyday and I'm already so much faster than the first few days! So satisfying 🧶
Preach 👏🏻 I started nice and slow and now, a year later, I’m so much faster and have started learning how to crochet without looking to really challenge myself and step up my game!

The more you do it the faster you go. It'll still be neat unless you're just not good at it
I started to crochet 8 years ago, and I’m still crocheting at the first speed you showed haha
I love to crochet but if I go longer than 10-15 min I have terrible hand pain; fast or slow. I did have a cortisone injection yesterday. I hope it helps.
I recommend wrist braces for stability. They work for me :)
@@thatssobrandondo you wear the braces as you work? aren’t they uncomfy?
Can see slight tension changes too.
It gets easier and consistent with practice 😍

Yes!!!
I’ve been crocheting for over 20 years and I’m still at the first speed 😂
My grandma does it without looking anf within 10 minutes shes a magical ✨️
I started with the tiniest hook ever a while ago and gave up and yesterday i bought biggee ones and i started learning and made bracelet!!
THIS IS SO TRUE!!! I struggled with chain stitches and now I can do **almost** every stitch I know really fast lol
I love crocheting but I always have trouble with the pulling my hook through the loops part-
I always end up need to pull the yarn over the hook myself 😅
Relatable 😂❤
I started learning to crochet a few years ago and still for the life of me can't figure out a granny square, so it's back to the knitting!
help when i crochet i can only chain straight. IVE BEEN CROCHETING FOR 1 YEAR NOWWWWW
it gets so much faster once you have practice, but speed isn't all that important as long as you're enjoying what youre doing :)
Now this inspired me 😂 I haven't started learning it yet... I hope I can be faster too lol
Beautiful yarn and beautiful stitch. So simple, yet so pretty!
same but the speed also depends on the yarn for me 😊
Watching this while crocheting ❤❤
Is this ribbing with a slip stitch? It's so pretty
tes it is
Yup!!
I was looking thru the comments for what stitch is this 😂 but what does this even mean!!!

I started 6 days ago and yeah it was so slow and squeaky because of the tension i put on a yarn hahaha
Squeaky 😅 But yes I can relate, tension is not easy 😭
Keep stitches tight
I’m a month and a half in and I’m definitely fast then when I started 🔥🔥💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
When I first started it was easy for me to
Your beginner crotchet is how fast I dream of crocheting.
I was trying to teach my friend and they were scared when I stoped slowing down for them
When I first start out crocheting after a few minute break or starting a new project it’s always slow and gets faster as I get more into it.
I started today!It took me less then an hour to lewrn how to do the first chain!Tmrw imma learn how to make the second row
This is so true I was so slow when I started
Yeah but honestly when I started crotchet it came naturally mainly cuz I was a rainbow loomer and I did loomigurmis and stuff like that so it was pretty easy to move to crotchet
i've been crocheting over a year now, and i CAN crochet fast but i choose to never do it bc i like to crochet. The slower you are, the more you can crochet. Finished projects are cool but I never use it (only beanies)
I've been crocheting for years and my crochet movements arent as smooth as hers. Thats skills ma'am.
I unraveled months worth of me trying to make my first cardigan the other day and redid it (past the point I was at before) in 3 days

How quick I do it sometimes depends on my mood lol when I’m upset or angry my aggressive crochet vibe presents and I hammer stuff out lol
