- Hey y’all hope you’re well💓
Im Sorry I haven’t uploaded in a really long time, it’sBut I have a quite a few crochet projects planned very exciting, can’t wait to share them with you guys:)) I have a sewing tutorial coming as well which is me making an I am Gia skirt so also stay tuned for that🧶🧵
My Hook is 4/5MM
My yarn is 8 ply 100% acrylic and about 230m in 100g
For this bolero I used 130g of yarn
The full width from one end of the sleeve to the other was 1.74m so you might need slightly more or less yarn depending on the size of your bolero.
UA-cam keeps on copyrighting my videos even though I didn’t use the music it was claimed for and a quick google search reveals that the song doesn’t even exist... it’s so frustrating and annoys the hell out of me so I might not have music in future videos or like write songs and record them myself and use thAt. Idk we’ll see
Thanks for reading and watching
See you soon
xx

Great tutorial, I just finished making mine! Incase anyone is wondering, it took me 2 days but if i worked on it non stop it would have been quicker. I used 200g of wool, i thought id run out but lickily i had just enough!
Edit: accidentaly wrote 400g instead of 200g lol
omg i’ve been looking for a tutorial exactly like this bolero! thank you so much girly💗
literally been looking for a tutorial for this bolero for the LONGEST TIME!! thank you so much
Ur so welcome x
Loved the tutorial and loved my finished result! Was a bit tricky for me being left handed, but it wasn’t a big problem. I highly recommend trying this and it is beginner friendly! Thank you!
It looks like a nice pattern but you're speaking so low, and the music is louder than your voice, would love to follow with closed caption.
I agree with you. It’s one of my biggest pet peeves on TV as well. Sometimes the dialogue is lower than the background music and it’s very difficult to follow along. Would love you to do the same one just without music or at least turn it way down.
Guys I have a this vid but without music on my page;)!

Very reason I don't like "talkies"!
Wdym by talkies😭😊
i’ve never seen someone use the rainbow loom hook before! so cool!
Thank you haha it was the only hook I could find
thank youuu
Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. I just finished my shrug😊
thank u sm for this, its my first time crocheting n this is sooo helpful
yours look amazing and his pattern is so beautiful, thank you so much xx
Thank youuuu it means a lot x
i love the colour combo! very nice design 😍
Beautiful piece In in the process of making mine thank to you. This was a well explained video 💞
Can you re-upload with sound?
would just like to say, i had chronic eczema as a child and this might be rude to assume that you also have it, but wanted to say how proud i am of u for filming a video when it was my dream as a kid to make speed drawing videos but felt to embrassed to post because of the state of my hands. how close people would be able to see the inflammation i was so embarrased of. maybe if i was younger when i was crocheting and seen a youtuber like yourself i would’nt have been so afraid 💗 thanks so much! will have to try attempt making this now 🫠
Can you repost this video with sound ?
Am at the part where I start increasing the stitches for the second sleeve and it is very difficult because instead of following what the video says, I am making the exact number of stitches in ea. Row as the first row (it looks like I maybe decreased a few stitches each row on the first sleeve). I would hope that this works out as I am about to start the sleeve now . Maybe if you can explain that part a bit more it'd help others great tutorial though
Okay, thanks for the feedback
@@wendycrochetsyt you're welcome, maybe it was cause I didn't keep track as I was doing the first sleeve (of how many stitches per round I did )😂
Just cute and easy. Thanks!!!
Can you make a more detailed video on the shoulder pls? It's getting very tricky, it's not even half of my shoulder and the diagonal has already reached the back part of my sleeve
Yep I can link it. But in your case^ I suggest decreasing a stitch every 2 to 3 rows instead of every row. That easy your diagonal will get stretched out longer xx

Would it be possible to see a finished product before I get myself involved with the project? I am not sure it's something I want to try unless I see it first.
The thumbnail is me wearing the finished product
do you have the written instructions for this?
“If you watch my videos you know I just love to start off with a slip knot” um…IS there any other way to start crochet????
Probably but tbh I don’t rly know bc I start everything w a slip knot xx
Is there no audio?
There's no sound at all 😢
The audio is missing. :(
Heyy. I’m really happy I found a tutorial for it and it seems pretty easy so far so I’m liking it but it kinda glitched at 4:46 so I’m confused and don’t want to mess it up. So should I do two double crochets into each hole?
Hey! You continue doing one double crochet per hole then chain 1 and then double crochet into the next hole. And you continue this until it’s long enough for your arm.
And if you need to make the sleeve wider you can do 2 double crochets in 1 hole a couple times per row. If you need to make your sleeve tighter then you do 1 double crochet from 2 holes a couple times per row
Hope that helps xx
@@wendycrochetsyt yeah it does, Thank youu!
do u think id be a bad ideia to make this with only 100g? it looks beautiful btw!!
Definitely get a bit more yarn I’d say!!
@@wendycrochetsyt thank u!!
This tutorial had so much potential because she’s okay at explaining things but forgot to add so many details, at times I had to guess what to do, I have a smaller wrist and she didn’t at all explain how to gradually make your piece bigger for your forearms and arms, had to undo my project :(
Yeah sorry about that if you have like very specific questions I’m usually pretty fast at replying so more than happy to answer them in the comments!!
To make it bigger you increase stitches. So, do 2 double crochets in the same stitch and repeat this as many times as you need to xx
@@wendycrochetsyt hey thank you so much! I actually did retry but for some reason my sleeve is gradually getting bigger for some reason like a bell ? How do you think I can fix that?
@@wendycrochetsyt its not like a good bigger either, it reaches my forearm so far and it’s rlly oversized on my forearm
I reckon you’ve increased stitches too rapidly. So when I increased stitches I did about 3 increases per row max. If not, you could also try loosening the tension of your stitches, like when you do the chain in between double crochets you can make them ‘looser’ and when you try it on the yarn will have more room to stretch bc the stitch is looser, making the sleeve slightly wider.
So cuteee
Thank you xx
Hi! If you’ve done the sleeve with triple crochet can you do the back panel with triple crochet?
Absolutely!
good tutorial. could u tell me how can i make the holes bigger?
Thanks! Do you mean the wholes in between stitches or the arm while circumference?
hi question! if i wanted the holes to be larger, should i just chain more and then skip more spaces?
Yes!!
@@wendycrochetsyt okieee :) do you have any tips? like maybe a certain amount of spaces i should skip or a certain amount of chains i should make?
I’d say if you do one chain, skip one stitch, if you do two chains, skip two stitches and so on... but if it doesn’t look good you can always improvise, don’t have to stick to the ‘pattern’:)
the diagonal part at the sleeves was super confusing for me🥺
Basically decrease as you go, I think I said once every two rows on the front of your sleeve in the vid but it’s up to you really you can decrease every row if you’d prefer it rly varies on your shoulder width I suppose x
hi! when did you start to increase on your sleeves? like how many stitches or inches up?
Like when it’s length goes just past my elbow
But try your sleeveon as your Crochet and whenever you feel like it’s starting to get tight then you can just increase a few stitches !! Doesn’t need to be where I increase in mine xx
Whenever you're doing the back piece (where both sides are "even/ when you stop decreasing", do you still use the half double crochet on the last stitch of the front of the sleeves? I just assumed that was the same, as well as the chain 2 at both ends (the last stitch of the front and the last stitch of the back). Thanks
No I didn’t use the half double crochets no more bc that was apart of making the decrease look more ‘natural’
So as soon as I stopped decreasing all my stitches went back to double crochets (with a chain in between of course)
But I did keep on doing the chain to at both ends because that is the turning stitch to go into a new row
Oh, okay well thank you for explaining that. I used the half double crochet until I got to the even part (the even rectangular back part) , but I am sure it wouldn't make a huge difference if I were to do the half double crochet instead. All good, I assumed the chain 2 on each end was necessary to keep the rows straight.
Yeah no the half double crochets wouldn’t rly make a difference you’re all good!!
when you're crocheting back and forth on the side that isn't decreasing, do you insert the hook in the first box from the hook or the second?
I think I did the second
I like it but I’m not too fond of how small it looks on the shoulder. I just wished it covered it more but idk how to do that. Can someone make any suggestions?
I’d say decrease stitches less often (more gradually) eg instead of decreasing every stitch do a decrease every 2 or 3 stitches etc. and part of the reason it looks small on me is bc I have wider/bigger shoulders than the average person so yeah
I can’t hear what your saying
at 14:50 when you do the back I'm not sure what the pattern is? double crochet chain and double crochet but then do I need to chain 2 or 3 at each end so confused as a beginner >.
And then you just repeat chain double crochet chain double crochet …
Basically repeat double crochets but do a chain in between them!
Hope that helped x
@@wendycrochetsyt thank you so much! your video is so helpful
hi! what happened to the sound? i thought it was me but i can't tell what step is which ):
nvm i found where it is !
How would u make the mesh holes bigger?
I think if you chain more in-between the double crotchets they should probably get bigger:)
yep ^
Helpp!! What size hook should I use???
I'm just gonna use a 5.5 mm hook...
That will be fine I reckon. Mine was 4/5 mm x
@@wendycrochetsyt thanks!
please subtitles in spanish :( I really love your content
Oooo okay I’ll look into doing that ! I’d probably just be putting it into google translate so it might come out a bit dodgy xx
youtube auto translates subtitles for you :)
Los tiene. Sólo dale clic a Configuración, opción Subtítulos en inglés y ahí mismo tiene la opción de traducirlos inmediatamente al español.
Hi there is no sound on this video 😢
Did your sound get taken down?:(
i'm not sure what happened but here's the link! it's another of her tutorials but the beginning is the same (:
Yeah…😞
Podrías poner subtítulos en español por favor ❤️

do you know how manu grams of yarn you used? 💗
I wrote about this in the description :) it’s about 130 grams xx
I cant hear it but it looks nice
Try this vid the first half is the bolero it self second half is making it into a top xx
ua-cam.com/video/Lxiw_uVhw2c/v-deo.html
Where is the sound?
Copy right😅
Written pattern please?
Here it is it’s a bit more like instructions rather than a pattern cuz I don’t know all the stitch names...
Chain 17 (or enough to wrap around your wrist/forearm)
Dc into the first stitch of the first row then ch 1 and skip a stitch then repeat until the sleeve reaches your bicep
Increase a couple of stitches if you need to fit your bicep/shoulder (see video)
Continue with the dc chain dc and when your sleeve is long enough for your arm, crochet to half way of your sleeve then chain 1, turn your work and do dc chain dc until you reach the last stitch in this row. And chain 1 turn tour work repeat.
Do this until you have 3 rows of crochet that is separated in the middle of the sleeve
Then decrease a stitch in each of the next 3 rows on one end only
Then do dc chain dc for 40 more rows or until it reaches your other shoulder.
Increase a stitch in each of the next 3 rows
Connect the 2 edges together by inserting your hook into the loop on the other piece pull up a loop yarn over and pull through all loops then continue with the dc chain dc decrease a couple of stitches
Continue the sleeve with dc chain dc
is there any way to make the back of the bolero longer so it doesn’t sit so high up on my back?
You could make the sleeve wider like increase stitches when you get to the bicep area so it’ll be longer at the back does that make sense?!
Can't hear you
Where abouts is the audio dodgy?? I still have the project so I could actually make it louder and re upload it if that’d help!!
@@wendycrochetsyt that would be perfect! It's a beautiful piece
okay I’m on that will take a bit of time tho x
@@KamKuhlYee i've jut uploaded this video,, the first half of it is how to crochet the bolero!! ua-cam.com/video/Lxiw_uVhw2c/v-deo.html
maybe next time dont have the background as your carpet as its the same colour as the yarn!
I can’t hear much of your voice :( beautiful design though
Hard to listen to you and tuning out the overlay. Thought I say this. Better to have no music when doing tutorials.
Yeah I stopped putting music on in later vids cuz heaps of people have said this and I keep getting copyrighted
Whys there no sound
It got copyrighted..
lmao, why do you change your voice like that?
I sped up some parts of the vid that’s probs why!!
Can anyone else just not hear anything?
i'm not sure what happened to the sound but here's the link! it's another of her tutorials but the beginning is the same (:
I really like the pattern, but she needs to talk louder and tell what she is doing before she dose it so people can keep up with her. she just needs a little more work. She talked most of the time and you it would be nice if you could print the pattern out.
Here is a louder version

I think I would definitely make a pattern if I could it’s just that with this it’s not that straightforward at times and I’m not a professional so I don’t know the proper terms for a lot of things so if I make a pattern half of it wouldn’t make any sense
