Hey erin! Love the pattern and cant wait to make one! Could you please tell me how many grams did you use to make your top?
Beautiful ❤Thank you
Im resisting making a sweater for my bf, but this would be such a great spring and summer shirt for him. In a cotton! ❤
Yesss I used the cotton acrylic blend and it’s actually perfect for most seasons!! This would be great too with wool/acrylic for winter ❤️🔥
Yes more of men crochet
I'll be making this for my boyfriend too. Could you give me an idea how much yarn I'll need per colour? I've never crocheted before so I don't have an idea on this. She said that she used 700yds which I'm assuming is per colour but ofcourse my boyfriend will need a lot more since he's tall and has a bigger build so I'm not sure how much yarn to go for
Harika model hemen yapmaya başladım teşekkürler ❤😊
OMG thank you so much, i was kinda sad when you started to sell paterns bc in My country they could get so expensive 😭😭😭😭 you are amazing, xoxo💖
This is PERFECT thank you 🎉❤
You’re so welcome!
From South Africa I want to say thank you Erin thank you for this PLEASE MORE MEN CROCHET!!!
Fantastic video. Gorgeous shirt. Have to have it.😊
Thank you!!
Thank you, this is absolutely gorgeous!!! 😍😍🥰😍
Maravilhosa obrigada por compartilhar Deus te abençoe
Love the shirt and your teaching methods! I've been crocheting a while but am mostly self taught. Like to find videos like yours that include written instructions as I'm trying to learn to read patterns. Having both is great for that purpose. Have a question, could you attach front panels to back panel then do sleeves? Then the sleeves would only have to be connected on the bottom side. Thx!!💜
this is exactly what I've been looking for! how much yarn did you need for this?
Really cute ❤
💖💖💖
Beautiful
OMG OMG OMG
THANKS FRIEND!!!! ❤
Of course!!
OK so stitch markers on a carabiner is brilliant. I have some hobbi Halloween twister coming in soon. This is going to be perfect!
The new hobbii Halloween colors are sooooo gorgeous I wish I could have them all 😂💖
@@itserinb I may or may not have bought them all 🤣🤦♀️
very cute!
This is one gorgeous high style shirt to crochet. I was terrified to even consider crocheting or knitting anything that required shaping. You have made it so easy. Nonetheless I'm afraid my hand work never comes out even. Love it. So have to do it. Thank you so much for sharing.💖💖💖
You’ll never know unless you give it a try!! I know you can do it 💖
Absolutely love the simplicity and versatility. Being able to make a garment to body size instead of predetermined measurements is awesome. I’ve added this to my long list of items I want to make. Thank you so much for sharing your design. Your video quality is excellent too. Cheers from FL😺
Ahhh thank you so much!! Made to measure is always my fav way to go so that anyone can make it for themselves 🥰💖
Hi, I'm very new to crochet and the yarn I'm getting for this is no 1 weight because no 2 weight doesn't have a good stock but no 1 yarn recommends using 3mm hooks but she recommends 3.5mm hook for this project. Is it okay to use a 3.5mm hook on no 1 weight or will it make the project a disaster?
@@tirthalily Hi. I’ll try and answer your question the best I can. I admire your willingness to dive in and mix things up. The beauty of making an item is you control all the options. You can use any yarn, weight, hook size, etc. Each will produce different results. You can absolutely substitute a #1 weight yarn for a #2 weight, but there will be differences in your finished garment. Using the lighter weight yarn will produce a lighter more open/lacy garment. You can change that by using a smaller hook to make the lacy parts smaller. By using a smaller yarn you might have to make extra rows to equal the width of the stripes the pattern states. Meaning if it calls to make 2 rows of one color you might need to make 3 or 4 rows in order to achieve the same visual results. Does that make sense? Not the most fun part of crocheting, but one of the smartest ways to help make your item turn out its best is to make a swatch. All that means is to work up a small version of the item you want to make in pattern using your intended hook and yarn. Traditionally swatches are made in 4”x 4” size or 10 x 10 centimeters. By working this swatch up you will be able to see several things; how the yarn looks in the pattern, how many stitches/ rows needed; how it drapes, etc. it’s definitely worth the time for your finished item to be successful. Just crochet the number of chains that will equal the 4”(10 cm) and follow the pattern until you make a 4”(4cm)square. You can also make the garment by holding 2 strands of your chosen yarn together - essentially creating the #2 weight yarn. You would use the hook size the designer used. You just have to be mindful that you are being consistent and not losing one of the strands while you crochet. Holding the 2 strands together might create a slightly thicker fabric. It shouldn’t cause any issues, just something to be aware of. I hope I didn’t confuse you too badly. What sounds right in my head may not translate well into words. If I’ve lost you along the way, please let me know, and I’ll try and make things clearer. Enjoy making the polo. Cheers from FL😺
@@ravenlunatic1177 thank you so much for your reply, your explanation is actually the most detailed one I've come across after all the researching I did. I have never crocheted before, I actually don't even know the basics because I don't have a hook to practice with. I'll be getting my first hook with this project and this will also be my first project. Otherwise I know a little bit of knitting, and I made a scarf for my boyfriend last month after learning knitting basics in December. That has been all for my knitting for now. This shirt too is for my boyfriend so I don't want it to turn out in a way where it doesn't look masculine, like if I use a 3.5mm hook with #1 yarn and it gets too lacy then it might be a problem as that could look more feminine or if it gets too thin if I use 3mm hook and again starts looking feminine.. I don't know I'm just nervous and confused since I haven't even touched a crochet hook before and don't have any idea on how crocheted patterns turn out.
I'll try looking for #2 yarns but if I still don't find a good stock then I'll just use a 3mm hook on #1 yarn and go with your suggestion of adding extra stitches. I don't want to risk using two yarns together because I'm still not familiar with crochet.
@@tirthalily Glad I could help. Wow, I’m even more impressed you haven’t done any crocheting and want to start with a polo. I understand that the project has got you excited to try your hand at crochet. That’s great! I’m sure others have told you it would be better to start with a smaller project, just to see if you even like crocheting, don’t get too frustrated, end up not finishing it, etc. Yes, they can and in a lot of circumstances, are all true. But that excitement can overcome a lot. I will definitely recommend you swatch it out just to make sure you get the look you are after. I went back and watched her video again. She does use a #2 yarn, but says that it feels more like a #1 weight to her. Looking at the yarn, I have to say I agree with her. So that solves not being able to get the color you want in the #2 yarn. The yarn fiber type is important. The yarn she used is a blend of cotton and acrylic. That gives structure to your piece but allows it to drape (without growing). 100% cotton fiber has a tendency to stretch out (aka grow). That’s the nature of the fiber. It’s also a good idea to think about when you think this garment will be worn most - seasons, air conditioning vs. heating. That will help you decide on the fiber. Cotton is great for wearing in the warm weather months due to its light & airiness. Wool can also be a great fiber to work with as it’s very durable, it keeps you warm in the cold and cooler in the heat. The most important thing to remember when buying wool is to get a 100% super wash merino. The super wash is the important part. You need it to be washable. If it’s just the regular wool roving, if you don’t hand wash the item, you’ll end up having it felt on you. Translation - it will shrink in size from something an adult could wear, down to a child or doll sized item. A mix of fibers is usually a good way to go. Either that or 100% acrylic. Acrylic is usually the least expensive and widely available in sizes & color. It isn’t as drapey as the cotton/acrylic mix and it will tend to be a bit warmer of a garment. I’m not talking about huge degree of temperature comfort, just another thing to consider. That being said, as a beginner you might want to check local thrift shops just to get your hands on a crochet hook and yarn. Something you can learn the basic stitches and play with it to get comfortable with your tension, holding the yarn, which way you prefer to hold the hook, etc. There are a lot of beginner crochet videos out there showing basic stitches you’ll need to know to make this project. I’d check them out first just to get comfortable with the process. I’m sure this designer has videos on her channel showing you basics. I also highly recommend Bagoday crochet channel here on UA-cam. She walks you through everything clearly and has over 1200 videos of anything you can possibly want to make. Check her out. She has a great teaching style. There are others who are also great teachers. Click on a video and see their style. Just because you aren’t connecting with the way someone is showing how to do the stitch, don’t give up on it. Everyone has their own style of teaching. Just click on another’s video and it might just be the one you have the “aha” moment. Don’t forget UA-cam allows you to change the playback speed of a video. You can click on the gear icon either in the top right corner or directly beneath the video depending on where you are watching it. A pop up box will show you many options. That might help to clear a step up for you. If you were able to knit, you should find crochet a bit easier. You are only worried about 1 stitch and not a bunch of stitches on the needle at once. It’s a lot more forgiving. Let me know how the polo turns out. I wish you the best of luck in your crochet journey. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I’ll do my best to help. The crocheting community on UA-cam is very supportive. You’ll find many people that want to see you succeed. Cheers from FL😺
Very cute
Спасибо Вам.
Hola que bonita te quedó, una pregunta los puntos que usaste en un inicio para el cuello siempre es el mismo número hasta terminar el cuello o se le hace aumentos,???saludos desde México 😊😚
I love this video and this shirt and definitely want to make it. Can you explain the 80+7 thing? thats the only bit I didnt really get. Like why does it have to be multiples of 8 plus 7?
Can’t wait to make this!!
Yay! 💖💖
Très beau, merci beaucoup 😊
💖💖
Fantastic
Bravissima ❤❤
Thank you!! 💖
çok güzel harika🎉❤
Super linda! 👌🏼
Bonjour
C'est très joli!! Quelle taille avez jous fait et combien de fil avez vous utilisé pour cette taille s'il vous plait?😊
What brand crochet hook did you use for this polo shirt?
Hi ! How many skeins of yarn did you use ??
How would you use 3 colors? I’m a lil nervous about them not flowing like how you explained!
Lindo ❤
Vous êtes une très bonne enseignante ❤
How many grams did you use making this beautiful, amazing top? I wanna make one and I already have 500g of yarn, and I'm wondering if its enough. Thank you so much for this pattern ❤
How much yarn did you use for your piece?☺️
how many skeins did you use for your polo
How much yarn is required for the entire shirt?
How much yarn was used as in, will i get away with buying onw of thise balls of yarn she mentioned as its a little pricey.
how much yarn do you need ? 🥰
Красота, спасибо 🇷🇺
Hi, i really wanna make this and i also LOVED the color for this!! I did figure out the one color was Dune in this yarn, but is the other one Grey or light grey?
The other color is Sand! 💖
@@itserinb Omg thank you 🥰
🙏
Absolutely awesome erin.. i loved the way u explained, i really wanted to make it nd wear it,but i so so worried that i couldn't because im in india, i don't have that currency to buy the yarn, so can u say any other alternative yarn to use, can u say any other way to make this, i really wanted to make itt😫😭
Any type of cotton/acrylic blend would work! 💖
I am still very new to crochet clothing. Am I able to use a 100% cotton that is size three and use a 4.0 mm hook to make this top?
You can! But keep in mind the stitches will be much tighter than mine, and will have less of a lace effect 💖
How much yarn did you need?
😊😊
Hi Erin, I can’t wait to make this. Could you please share how much yarn you used to make this?
For my size & measurements I used around 700 yds!
@@itserinbis that 700 yds in total or 700yds of each colour?
what shades of friends wheel did you use for this? really cute and on trend
Dune and Sand 💖💖
Hi, how many grams of yarn did you end up using?
So the size is the size of the chain corresponds to the final width of that piece? It doesn't shrink or expand? Does the type of stitch make a difference in whether it sinks or expand?
Be sure when ultimated the garment will grow....how much depends by the type of stitches used by the yarn and also by your tension.
Hi! The chain corresponds to the height of the top, not the width!
How much yarn does this pattern use?
Shell row 11:08
how much yarn did you use (grams)
Hi, can I ask if it’s okay to do the back panel and the sleeves first ? So instead of cutting off my string, i just continued from where i ended my back panel to do my sleeve until the width and length that i want. Would it affect the pattern as it seemed okay to me? Also because I used the same colour throughout so was thinking if its okay to just do it this way instead of starting again from the stitch marker
And I was thinking to make a cardigan with this pattern do you think it will be weird with the collar?
And can i ask why is my front piece longer than my back? Are there any possible reasons because i used the same yarn and hook
this may seem like a silly question but after row 1 should there be in your example 80 double crochet stitches? have been trying to replicate but my pattern isnt lining up after the first 6 rows like yours does. im confusing myself here 🕺🏽🫶🏼
for example, my starting chain is 128 + 7 (135) and my row 1 end is 133 dc. is that right 😂
bestie please explain how you hold your hook like that 😂😭😭😭
Hahaha I hold it like I’m writing with a pencil!! More comfortable this way than the knife hold for me, and I don’t get wrist pain! 😂
I hold it the same way for the very same reason haha
I'm gonna make this for my boyfriend 🤭 wish me luck🤞🏻🎀
❤❤❤❤
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
hey! how long did it take you to finish this?
For me this took 1 week!
Bonjour je viens de regarder votre tuto et ça me plaît beaucoup
Serait il possible d avoir des explications avec un dessin car je ne comprends pas l Anglais mais vous montrez bien ce que vous faites,merci
Your my model i wish one day my dream come true
How many clusters in total?
This tutorial is amazingggg. Can I just ask how many grams of yarn you used? 😭
Hi!! I’m not sure about grams but the yardage is listed in the beginning and you can convert into grams 💖
can i use cotton yarn instead of sock yarn? If so what size?
This is cotton yarn! It’s sock weight/sport 💖
