    Enjoyed your video on the drawstring bag. It was a lot of fun. I could not do the drawstrings your way. I just couldn’t figure it out. But my granddaughter still loved her new bag. Thanks

    Your drawstring method is so nice! I use it for all my strings. Much better than a plain chain or a row of single crochet.

    Hi Anja the idea to make the strings in this way is fantastic wish i have seen Your Video bevor i have made my market bag because the strings that i have made Had Do long time to Do and was so awful complicated...... But i have even a little Trick for you with the handling of the yarn. You say we must pull down the yarn from the Ball for the lengh that we will make our strings, i have a little better way and i have it tested also, i have take to separates balls, have both yarnends take in one slipknot on my needle and so i have the two yarn strings for the drawstrings and enough yarn that i can make it so long as i will or need. I hope you understand what i mean with my awful english.
    Nice greetings from lally, from germany 😉😉😊😊

    • @OpheliaTalks
      @OpheliaTalks  5 років тому +2

      lally ladyoflallybroch hi Lally! Yes of course you can use either two balls but sometimes you don’t have two balls.....or yes, one on the outside and one from the middle.... there is a video where I have actually measured how much you need so that’ll help too!! Thanks for your suggestion!! Xxx

  • @rozsmith6850
