Thank you! Love this video, great teaching, you take your time explaining step by step!
You are so very welcome! Thank you so much for the kind comment and your appreciation. :)
Hello, I'm Korean. That's a great video! I'll continue to do my best.
Thank you!
Thank you, super easy and very thick! I love it!
You are so very welcome! I am so glad you like it. :)
Thank you I found you very clear and concise in your tutorial. Have a Great New Year!
Thank you and you as well!
Love your pattern and tutorial. I just purchased by first skein of scrubby yarn. Can't wait to make one
Awe… thank you so much!! You totally made my day! Please feel free to reach out at itchinforsomestitchin@gmail.com if you have any questions. :)
Very good video easy to follow. Thank You
You are so very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Very good instructions and easy to understand even though the camera angle almost cut off my view of the stitching. Enjoyed this very much because I’ve made one once before and love that this pattern folds for a thicker scrubby.
Thank you very much!
All I have to say, good for you. I tried working with this yarn and just was unable. I am resigned to making pom poms with it. Thanks for sharing!
It can be a bit tricky and hard to see. i eventually got used to it and can find the stitches by feel, but I bet they make great pom poms! LOL
Did you sc in the back of the stitch if that's what you said
My hubby hears smoke alarm and I could not 😂
Oh my goodness... I was just like you! Not only could I not hear it during filming - when people started commenting about it, I had to watch the video multiple times before I finally heard what they were talking about! 😂🤦♀
@@Itchinforsomestitchin 😂! I told my hubby he has dog hearing. Maybe I am just getting old
@@wellsonwheels457 That cracks me up! I do have some damage to my hearing, but I didn’t realize it was so bad I couldn’t hear the detector beep while filming! I’d rather have amazing dog hearing. 😂
Love the scrubby, but sent the family on a mad hunt to find the dead/dying battery in the smoke alarm for the next hour 😂😂😂😂😂
Oh my goodness, you poor thing! So sorry about that! 😂😂😂
I started with 16 stitches but ended with 10. You are talented to be able to work with this difficult yarn. I can hardly make out the stitches. But will try again. : )
It does take some practice, but hang in there - you’ll get it! 😀
I've never seen anyone yo like that. Are you primarily a knitter?
Hi Georgia, although I do knit, I am actually primarily a crocheter. I am a self-taught crocheter and have had my unusual way of yarning over mentioned multiple times. When I was teaching myself to crochet I didn't realize this method was any different from others, but I do believe I may have inadvertently developed it as a way to put less work on my working arm. I have right-sided weakness and unfortunately, I am right-handed. I think yarning over this way with my left hand helps me to be able to crochet for longer periods of time.
I also yo this way and I am self taught! ❤️
I am a knitter also and do the same....lol
I was watching you yo and thought hey! Someone does it too. Lol
I do get asked if I knit. I was also self taught. I've never been able to get the hang of the lifted finger and using the hook to grab the yarn.
@@Itchinforsomestitchin I yarn over like this too! Especially if I'm using a thicker yarn.
Hey you think you can do this with a different yarn because I can’t even see 😩😤😤
Oh you poor thing… I did a search for scrubby yarn alternatives without luck. I supposed you could use plain cotton yarn, but it technically wouldn’t be a “scrubby”. The scrubby yarn is what gives it the ability to act like a scrubby and unfortunately it is a bit hard to see the stitches while working with it - I tend to find the stitches by “feel” more actually seeing them.
The people who disliked are jealous of your talent
The beeping fire detector in the background was so distracting I couldn't get past the 1st few minutes of the video
After this comment I listened to this video and could not hear what you were talking about. I thought maybe it's the chimes in the music at the start of the video. Then after another message from someone else confirming she too could hear the beeping, I listened to it again - 2 or 3 times before I could hear the intermittent slight chirping. I had to listen quite intently. I apologize and had no idea it was in the video. I will remake it when I get the chance.
@@Itchinforsomestitchinactually there is a beeping throughout the video that sounds exactly like a smoke detector 'check battery' beep. It freaked me out initially, because I thought it was mine, lol. 😁
@@katesutherland6088 So funny - when your comment came through I immediately thought "what on earth are you talking about. I just listed to the video and heard nothing". But I listened to the video again - twice before I could hear what you guys are talking about. There is a very slight chirp every once in a while that I had no idea was there and actually struggle to hear at all. You have good ears! I will have to remake this video when I get a chance. Thank you for helping to clear this up!
Carbon monoxide detectors also make the same sound when the battery is low
Y’all listen.. my moms sector has been doing this for 6 yrs straight! No joke! We have replaced batteries & everything & could not get it to stop! She has a huge , nice house where some ceilings are very high up. After my dad passed away I even called the fire department to see if someone could come help us & to this day it verbs. The whole family ( including relatives that visit every year or so from other states) have just moved passed it pretty much. At times it bothers me or someone but my mom is deaf and hearing loss runs in our family so not everyone can hear it but omg!!! Years!!!!!! Had I seen this because I am going to call our fire department again and see if someone will come out! I laughed when I was watching the video bc I could hear it( exactly how moms sounds) and the only comment I could see was this one!
This yarn is very hard to work with unless you mix some cotton yarn with it.
That’s absolutely a great suggestion! I think I’ll give that a try and see. It will make the scrubby bigger and thicker I suspect. Thank you!
Please change the batteries in your smoke detector
Lol… that was a long time ago. I move moved twice since then! Lol
Trying to figure out why you would make an instructional video with the smoke alarm beeping in the background? Sooo distracting and unnecessary.
Hi Julie - from reading the comments you’ll see that I actually had no idea that it es going off while filming. I didn’t find out until over a year after it was posted when someone let me know! I hope to one day re-film it.
