Thank you so much for sharing those tips for micro crochet as I really want to try amigurumi in micro version but I don’t know what type of yarn to use if you can make a video on that too it would really helpful thank you
I am 69 and have crocheted since I was 10. I usually use a #10 bedspread thread for small items like the doll clothes I made for my granddaughter. I have several steel hooks from my grandmother that I still use. The most unusual thing I have ever seen was when I as a teenager. It was a tiny chain made from human hair to be attached to a man's pocket watch given by his true love. The smallest hook I have is a size 14 steel hook.
Well, you’re about 4 years up on me! I’m 65 & been crocheting since I was 10! The smallest steel hook I have is a 14, as well. I don’t think there are any smaller sizes. Although, the steel hooks I have are my own. My granny didn’t make anything smaller than pot holders, really and she tatted more than crocheted. Isn’t it nice that those tools can be passed down?
I started crocheting at 13 years old/o in Spain, after watching my grandma crochet in fine thread for years. I’ve made lots of intricate pieces in the following 50 years since and I’m very active in all kinds of fiber art, painting and realistic dollhouse miniaturing. Micro crocheting for the dollhouses is in my plans, using the steel hook set I inherited from grandma back in 1985, my own hooks and DMC cotton embroidery thread. But I first must complete the nearly finished queen size crochet bed cover in yarn that I’m making for my daughter. No time to get bored!
My mom used to crochet with sewing threat to make blankets for doll houses. I did it when I was in the military, when I would get home and really upset or angry about something at work I would sit down with a hook and thread, you can't crochet something that small and be angry.
I've been collecting 1:12 scale miniatures for a dollhouse I'm planning sp this is perfect because I do want to create miniature afghans, pillows and rugs
I wish I had been able to buy those finger protectors when I wrote my book on 1/12th scale crochet. Although since the discovery of Clover Soft Touch hooks I have found they are not quite so sharp on the fingers as the very ancient hooks I used at the time. Although I have sizes 0.04mm and 0.05mm I couldn't use those as they were difficult, if not impossible to find. Clover now sell 0.05, which is better than having only 0.06mm. Sadly I can no longer crochet small pieces due to a hand injury, although I may try again eventually.
Back in the 80's I did some miniature crochet when I was into miniatures. Made a granny square afghan and pillow with a fine wool thread and a baby sacque set with sewing thread. It was fun, I'm sure I could still do it!
Wow! What an impressive well thought out video guide!! I’ve never thought of doing micro crocheting but I think your suggestion are fantastic for anyone who truly wants to attempt it!!
Thanks for this. Will try out micro crochet using your tips. The one thing I made was a pair of pale blue/ yellow centred daisy earrings. They turned out about an inch and a half in diameter. My plan was to go smaller in hook size with a single thread from an embroidery shein. I'll see how it goes.
Awesome! I’ve been doing mini crochet for a few years now. Mostly just Amigurumi. Have been looking for someone who does this on UA-cam for a while now. I subscribed and will now catch up on your videos.
Comence a tejer crochet hace muy poco tiempo , y comencé con hilo de bordar y número 0.5 , recién hice un tapado con lana y numero 5 , me encantan los dos tejidos .
The lighting tip--I have found that because of the time of day, it's very good lamps that help. Because I choose good light I haven't had a problem with the dark colors, but since I do prefer to work with the rainbow, I don't use them a lot.
thank you so much for the tips..im just starting this journey and its so tiny!! i need those protectors for sure lol id love to find those threads you showed as well..and ill need a dang magnifier as well..lol so not easy to see but fun!! thanks again take care : )
I’m already comfortable using a 2mm hook so I think I can tackle an even smaller one. Light is the problem for me as I have slow growing cataracts. I was wondering if those glasses with lights attached would be sufficient or maybe a miners helmet lol. I learned to knit in my late 50’s and now that I’m 70 I need a new challenge! Edited to add, I used to crochet with embroidery thread to make Barbie clothes. Now I use sock yarn which I knit. I have a box of serger thread and wonder if I could use that. So many possibilities.
First of all, you're awesome!!!😱🤗 Everything you showed us is fo cute! Im working myself there. The smallest im using is a #3. Thank you for the tips and the encouragement❤
Hi, it is lovely. I have a question: is the thread an specific for micro crochet? The very thin one. It is extraordinary to see how you crochet with that kind of thread. Very nice, wow!
No, it's a normal sewing thread - you can start micro crocheting with any sewing thread you already have at home. There are some differences between different brands, but it's mostly a matter of personal preference. At the moment I really like working with Aurifil threads.
Glad you like it 😊 A detailed video on threads is coming soon! When it comes to threads, you can start with any regular sewing thread you have at home. My go-to combination is a 50wt thread and a 0.4mm hook.
Eu já faço microcrochet a um bom tempo. O que gostaria de saber qual a linha você usa. Tenho usado linha de pesponto, que acho um pouco grossa. E linha de bordar em meada, que é fina demais e tenho de usar 2 fios. Vejo muitas usarem um tipo de linha que não conheço e não consigo identificar. Afinal, que linha é essa que vcs usam? Mesmo que só tenha importada gostaria de comprar. Grata.
Can you, please, give me some pointers on thread usage? Like, how much thread do you need for some classic motifs and stitches? How long a spool lasts? Also should I use embroidery thread or sewing thread, if I want to upgrade my micro crochet skills from working with thin yarn (like Iris) and 1.0 mm hook to a 0.5 mm hook and even thinner material? Tbf, I probably should get a 0.7 mm hook first, before jumping straight to 0.5 mm one, but atm shopping is not an option due to health reasons, so I'm trying to work with what is already available at home.
I'm working on a video on this very topic, but here are a few options for you when it comes to thread+hook combinations: - If you want to use a 0.5mm, you can use virtually any regular sewing thread (50wt) you have at home, or work with one strand of embroidery floss. I started micro crocheting with a cheap polyester thread I already had at home. - For the 0.7mm hook, I'd use something thicker like Gutermann Top Stitching thread or 1-2 strands of embroidery floss. Another option would be to use two strands of regular sewing thread. I haven't crocheted much with embroidery floss, but I've seen people get really nice results. I personally find the smooth finish of sewing threads easier to work with at such a tiny scale. When it comes to thread usage, it really depends on the size of the spool and what you're making, but it's generally a very inexpensive hobby. I never really calculated how many squares I could make with one spool, but a tiny granny square (3-4 rounds) will barely make a dent in a 100m spool of regular sewing thread. Of course, if you plan to make larger projects, like miniature solid color blankets, you may need more thread. In that case I'd get two 100m spools, to be on the safe side.
Thank you so much - I use them mostly for dollhouse decorating, but microcrochet is also an amazing medium for making jewelry or tiny amigurumi, just to name a few.
Me: wishing I found this video b4 I collected a 2br place worth of chunky, jumbo, & massive yarn. lol. Gonna need an eye transplant b4 I attempt it tho. lol thx for the video.
I know that crocheting with thread has been around for centuries, and as a non-native English speaker, I just assumed it had always been called that. 🙂 I don't know when the term was coined, but it was around when I started working with thread over 5 years ago.
@@DJ-nh6wq I got really curious about what it's been called over the decades. I did a quick google search and apparently what is now called "micro crochet" (tiny hooks + thread) was just regular crochet in the early 19th century, and the crochet we know today (full garments, thicker yarn, and bigger hooks) became more popularized in the 20th century. I feel like trying some 19th century patterns to test my skills.
@@missxade That makes sense considering the woolen things were typically knitted. Hence yarn being called Wool back then as well as still in some places. I would love to see you create some 19th Century Patterns! I love crocheting with thread of varying weights and all the possibilities.
The first yarn my dumb*ss tried to crochet was a 3ply monaco cotton thread. Definitely not for beginners, do not recommend. I started using 8ply milk cotton yarn and it was so fun. But everý now amd then, I would go back to that 3ply yarn cause I like how clear and detailed the stitches are when using it.
I can crochet small (1mm) but I just can't seem to handle anything smaller than that! Especially not in the beginning! The start is sooo hard in microcrochet!
I too have been doing what you're terming microcrochet since I was 5 years old. So almost a 1/2 a century. I have some disagreements dark colors. Only become a problem when you don't have light But not light in the form you're referring to underlight. If you put the light underneath your project you can see through, you can see all the holes. It is easier, but let's be honest here. Even easier is knowing your pattern and feeling it. I don't need an underlight when I'm working with black now. Because I know how it works and I can feel it. Your silicone covers don't allow you to feel it.. And a proper crochet person is someone who has learned the callouses of youth and practice. The more you crochet the more callous you have and thus no pain. I'm a fiber artist that has worked on everything from 42 Count linen to size 16 to 18 needles in crochet.
Thank you for sharing your valuable experience and insight into working with dark colors - it's a great tip to use backlight. I totally agree that understanding the pattern and developing that tactile sense is an important part of crocheting, but I wouldn't expect that of a beginner. It's one of those skills that comes with practice. Crochet is a beautiful art with room for different techniques and styles and I respect the various ways people approach it. However, in my opinion, what defines a "proper crochet person" varies greatly, and it's not just determined by the presence of calluses. I, for example, still haven't developed them after almost two decades of daily crocheting and/or knitting sessions. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my great love of hand creams.
Sadly, no 😢 I was defeated by the black thread and never finished the blanket. I think I used one of the dahlia granny square patterns as a base and mixed it with plain granny and half-granny squares.

I have been micro crocheting for years (I am 89 years old) so I am an hold hand at this type of crocheting
First thing I thought when I considered micro crochet was "im gonna need a magnifier." And,sure enough 😊 Thanks.
