    I just wanted to thank you. 5 years ago, I was dealing with a lot of struggles in my life. Through all of it, I decided I wanted one thing that was just my own. I decided I wanted to learn how to crochet. You were the first person who taught me. Fast forward 5 years later, I love the skill so much. And I'm good at it! It really helped me with my struggles and brought a lot of stress relief for me. I just thought you should know how much you helped me. Thank you for this video. 😘

      I'm so glad to read of your success. I have recently learned to knit...a long term goal. I have always loved to sew and many other handcrafts involving needlework and/or small tools. It's amazing how soothing and rewarding it is. Good for you for finding a positive outlet for your stressors.

    I have read how to books, taken craft store classes & tried endlessly to get past my mental block. Your instructions are clearly detailed & slow enough to visualize exactly what we are to do with our yarn, our hook & our fingers (lots of elements involved in these skills). In addition, this instructional video was short enough to easily process. Thank you so much for your clear patient instructions & please, for those of us that learn visually - please continue to add more videos! THANK YOU!

    I am soooooooooo delighted that you posted this video!! My mother crocheted and could even make outfits without patterns. I wanted to learn, but she did not have the patience to teach me. It has been decades and I still haven't learned how. Now that I'm a Grandma, I would like to crochet some scarfs for my granddaughters and little matching ones for their dolls. Thank you so much for making the steps so easy to understand. Your video is like a Christmas gift to me and from learning how...I can now gift my sweet grand girls.

    You are a wonderful teacher! All the women in my family crochet except me. I want to but I've always found it hard. In 7 min you've managed to teach me how to begin, chain, single crochet, and turn over to continue. I've also finally understood some terms I've never understood when reading. Even the simplest things like, "why not the first chain?"going into the 2nd chain is clear to me now. Thank you for making this video. You have taught me something that will stay with me the rest of my life. I can now join the crocheting women in my family. I wish I could repay you for this new found knowledge.

    Of all the crochet tutorials on youtube, yours -- by far -- is the easiest to understand. I was struggling to the point of giving up until I came across this video. You explain things and show things in a way that I can understand, where the other tutorials seem like the narrators were performing slight-of-hand by comparison. You are a natural born teacher and I thank you!

    @MoonChildMedia 11 років тому

    Everyone is right. I watched many videos on how to learn crochet, and your's was the only one that told me how to place my hands, and the yarn, and was done at a very slow and understandable pace. Thank you so much for this video! I'm actually making a rag rug, and after watching this a couple times and practicing quite a bit, I think I'm ready to begin! Thanks again.

  • @raebritton8607

    OMG. First I have to say thank you for not being annoying. Your voice is pleasant. Secondly, you are a really great teacher. (although with the slip knot, i can remember it easier with "criss cross applesauce"! if anyone else maybe wants to try that...LOL) but your the first one that i can actually get it from, so great job and thanks!!!!!

    Thank you so much for your easy instructions. I used to crochet years ago and I mean years ago and forgot how to start the piece, I keep coming back to your video when I forgot how to start. I am really excited to crochet again. I am going to make some 9 inch squares to donate to a website called Project Chemo Crochet. They need 9 inch squares to make blankets for people taking Chemo. I need something in my life so this will be something easy. I think I can do a 9 inch square. Thank you for making it easy.

  • @kasha20

  • @Mishetta13
    @Mishetta13 10 років тому

    Great beginners video. I'm slow at getting the hang of it. I find just watching with no hook and yarn close is good- even several times. Then I'm eager to try myself. It takes repetitive practice for me and my stitches look a bit weird, but it gets better using the videos with or without yarn and hook. I'm sloooowly getting the hang of it. Thanks so much for the tutorials!

    I just discovered your channel and boy, what an eye opener! I could never figure out the beginning "pretzel" knot. I have crocheted in the past, but my beginning knot was a bit iffy and I had to make sure I tied it to keep from unraveling the project. LOL I am a visual learner and your videos are geared to people like me. I am so looking forward to crocheting again. Thanks for the patience you show in your tutorials.

    @emmareadagoodbook9643 11 років тому

    Thank you very much. I just learnt how to crochet. The tip about the chain loop on the end of a row was helpful. At first I didn't listen properly and made a triangle. The tension is difficult but like knitting I guess that comes with practice.

    Fantastic tutorial, thank you so much. Many do not show how to keep the tension on the yarn. you have done a superb job of this and showing the other techniques. Great use of the technical terms too.
