  • Due to popular requests, I have made a video with simple and easy tips on how to crochet my teeny tiny cardigans plus a crochet along to make my teeny tiny cardigan body.
    History is about Omphalos stones found in Ireland and Turkey with links both to crochet and the Royal family in ways that have never been explained before.
    Thank you to all my viewers and subscribers, I really appreciate all your support. Thank you for all your comments, I have been trying to read them all and hopefully this videos will provide valuable information for those who have shown interest in my cardigans and my history research.
    I am also saying a special thank you to my family who have listened and supported both my crochet and my history research.

    I know that this is an older video and I'm not sure if you still make them...however I wanted to say that I truly enjoyed it. I have crocheted for years yet I was struggling ro come up with a pattern for the perfect tiny sweater for a friend. I happened across this video and I am so pleased. I loved that you shared different things and talked as we crocheted. It felt as if we were a couple of friends having a chat and crochet. It was quite lovely and I love the cardigan so much that I plan to make a few. Should anyone need to make tiny things I will certainly refer them to your channel. Thank you so much for a lovely video. It was so relaxing. Happy crocheting. 🩷🤍🩷🤍

    Thank you so much for this! I’m going to be making these with matching hats to donate to the hospital where my son was (still)born. I think I’m going to make them longer though so it’s more of a full body gown. This is exactly the tutorial I’ve been looking for! I just want you to know that 5 years later, your video is still helping bereaved parents 💕

    Thank you very much for your patient explanations as you crochet! You take all the guess work out of your patterns & I really appreciate that! The Tiny Baby Cardigan is ssooo cute! I plan to crochet quite a few to go with the hats/caps I am crocheting for tiny babies at our local hospitals. Also, thank you for sharing such interesting history! I always wondered about the circles that some call "Crop Circles." Now I know they come from a mushroom! I didn't quite understand all about the rocks. I guess I was having a brain freeze at the time. I really enjoy watching your videos! They are very helpful to me! I love your British accent! May God richly bless you!

I finally got the right size and began with 43 chains.. its so cute. Youre a great teacher. Very interesting History.. and YES!

    I love your videos Karen and your history lessons. I am so glad you use acrylic yarn and bamboo instead of wool. I don't know what the wool industry is like in the UK but I would imagine it is the same as Australia and it is a dreadfully cruel industry indeed. I will not purchase wool products after seeing despicable footage of the way sheep are treated and abused. I am looking forward to your cake video. Take care
    Kind regards

    • @bettybho2168
      @bettybho2168 6 років тому

      i use crochet cotton and I refuse to support the wool industry because of the cruelty these poor animals are forced to endure. If i use mohair i only buy locally from people who love and care about all their animals.

    It's interesting that you should mention manna because it also took my interest and I did some research, it seems the Israelites lived on the manna for the 40 years they were in the wilderness and it was provided by God everyday and it's described as a “white like coriander seed” and had the “look” of bdellium gum, a waxlike and transparent substance having a form that resembles a pearl. Its taste was comparable to “that of flat cakes with honey” or “an oiled sweet cake.” After being ground in a hand mill or pounded in a mortar, manna was boiled or made into cakes and baked. Very interesting.
    I really want to make the little white cardigan I'll have to work on it because I don't want it to flare out also what stitches did you use sorry if you've already said.
