You really have a talent for this craft, your Grandfather would be so pleased that you’re keeping the tradition alive and I’m sure he’d be very proud of how mastered the craft. I am a knitter (learned from my Mother) and I’ve tried my hand at crochet and rigid heddle weaving and a little embroidery (even a touch of needle felting) safe to say I like working with fiber 😊 I am so eager to give this a try, I need to finish a few works in progress I have going first so I keep watching your videos. Thank you so very much for taking the time to share this wonderful craft. Oh, do you have a favorite needle size you like, I know in the one video you mentioned you like a sharp needle but I missed it if you gave a size or other detail about it. Well, again many thanks 😊
These are lovely thank you for the tutorial. I used to make Temari balls years ago which are similar but do more yarn based and embroidery crafts now so always have loads of odds and ends to use up (I don't throw any out!) This is perfect for them. Can I ask when you are filling in the triangles, do you need to decrease the number if stitches as you go towards the centre? How do you do this? Do you have a video showing this? Thank you again for introducing me to a new craft x
I just recently saw your singlade balls on Instagram and am working on my first one! I hope more people learn how to make these so it isn’t a lost art.
I heard about it from "Maak het met Miranda" in the Netherlands and love those Singlade bollar and came hear this morning to look at your tutorial and love it that you learn it from your opa = grandfather in Dutch. Did they use it for something or just make them for fun? Greetings from the Netherlands Anja Willy
Oh gosh, you're right! I missed showing that in this video! But if you look at the 2014 video, right about at minute 38, you'll see I finish a second row and change colors. I'll try to remember to include that in a future video. Thanks, Tina!
As you learn, I recommend you stick to one gauge of yarn, and I recommend 4 ply to reduce the possibility of shredding. Of course you can mix and match, but as you are starting out, I think you will have an easier time if you have consistent materials. I'm delighted you found this channel. Best of luck!
Wonderful, thanks I’m going to have a go then teach my grandchildren
I've just heard about these today. Really love them. Love traditional crafts. Looking forward to seeing the styles. Greetings from the UK.

As you turn each corner you are joining two stitches, so you are actually decreasing the number as you go.
Thank you @@Singlade

I think they just used whatever materials they had on hand --scraps of yarn-- to make a toy for their children.
is the needlework done with embroidery floss
This is made using 4-ply worsted-weight wool yarn.
I love your tutorial.♥️♥️
This is a great way to use left over yarn 🧶! 👌👌How did you change colors from orange to burgundy??

I’m just trying to learn your awesome tradition. It’s so so beautiful!!! I will look for that video. Thank you!!💜❤️🧡💙🖤💚💛
Great tutorial and craft. We're going to make some!
Should the yarn be the same ply? Can you mix and match?

@@katesterner That's very helpful. How long does it take one to do ie the basic triangle one
