Coaster/Circle Single Crochet

[RunninUpThatHillh]

I noticed that if i watch the entire video once, then just listen while I implement the steps, it doesn't matter that I'm doing it left-handed, altho I do have a left-y playlist of your videos. Great instruction.. I'm learning a lot here.

[tjw1963]

@RunninUpThatHillh That is a great suggestion.

[1VeganMom]

Teresa, is there a LEFTY version of this???

[tjw1963]

@1VeganMom I don't think I have a lefty version of this. Maybe it is time for me to make a new version anyway.

[mikacissej]

can i do this this without using two pieces of string?

[tjw1963]

@mikacissej You can work with one strand of yarn if you prefer. 

[CedarValley2011]

Awesome! Didn't have correct size crochet hook so turned out really tight and small but it was round. I am going to make some Christmas ones as soon as I can get the correct hook.

[tjw1963]

@CedarValley2011 You can still use the hook you have. You will work more increase stitches and increase rounds.

[DadaAlano]

Can I use 1 string of yarn? Coz I only have a small crochet hook...

[Cheburashka2715]

Great demo. I wonder however if in the third row, instead of doing 3 sc into one sc, would it make a difference if you do 2 sc into one sc, and then ch1?

[dianadiana1262]

Hi hun, If I wanted to make a round rug, would i just keep doing the 2 single crochet into every stitch until the it was as big as i wanted it?

Thanx I guess that was it lol I tried it again and now I'm getting a better circle :) thanx a lot for ur help ^-^

[jrdtennismaniac]

Um... I think I might be doing something wrong... Instead of flat circles I make spheres xD... What am I doing wrong???

[tjw1963]

@jrdtennismaniac you may not be working enough increase stitches so the edges are curling up

[SuperGirls144]

i have that EXACT hook that i got from jo-ann fabrics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!! Oh bye the way your videos are great i know it sounds funny but i'm only eleven and so i only know how to crochet scarves

[Sofia2co]

@SuperGirls144 aww that's so cuteee i started at that age too =) I',m 26 now =)

[planorush]

I am so appreciative of all your videos, I've learned so much so thank you!!! Would it be possible to email me the video for the edging? I can't seem to find it. Thanks again for all you do!!!!!

[tenshinoshikatsu]

Thanks so much! I am new to more advanced crocheting and I needed to know how to do the sc into each sc and 2 sc into each sc and stuff like that! You made it really easy.

[tjw1963]

@tenshinoshikatsu Thank you, I appreciate the comment.

[tjw1963]

@kellypinklily This would work but it is using two strands of yarn. I do have another circle with a single strand of yarn if you prefer that one instead.

[tjw1963]

@laurahenrycollection You are welcome! I appreciate the comment.

[ravenreed]

Thank you, that was so helpful. I have not yet crocheted in the round so this is exactly what I was looking for. I love that edging, btw. I have used it on several projects.

[ravenreed]

@ravenreed Sorry for the double post!

[tjw1963]

@ravenreed The reverse single crochet is my favorite edging. I appreciate the comment.

[AngelwithAttitude72]

Great video. You explained this very well. I've been trying rounds, but just not getting it. I think this will be a huge help to me. One question if Imay, if I wanted to make the circle bigger, to make a dish cloth or pot holder for example, would I continue single crocheting twice in each hole for several more row to make the round bigger and then single crochet my last row? Thanks so much!

[raelink557]

I love this pattern, could you send me the video for the edging please? Thank you for all your wonderful videos!

[maxie1133]

very beutiful i made one for my daddy's car

[missykim]

My favorite part in this video is at the end where you have a quick shot of the coaster in use. I would love to see your other projects posed as well :)

[tjw1963]

Most videos have the finished piece at the beginning of the video now. Did you happen to see the bear?

[missykim]

@tjw1963 I did! It's so cute. I'll give that one a try after I master... anything :P. My granny squares are pretty sad looking at the moment. Though I'm sure Salvador Dali would have been proud of them lol.

Keep the videos coming! You're awesome :)

[horselovers96]

This video was very helpful....could you please send me the link to the reverse edging too?

thx.. :D

[manda01100]

I need this also. Thanks!

[bakingdelight]

Thanks for the video. I was wondering is this the Spiral Method you used to work in coaster ?

Is there any video you have done to work rounds with turning chains ? And I couldn't find the video where you demonstrated the edging for this coaster .

[tjw1963]

Thank you. I believe I used the spiral. I have many hats that show the spiral. I do not have a purpose for turning in a lot of my joined projects. I have worked with doilies that have turned so it may come up on occasion. I will send you the link for the reverse edging.

[bakingdelight]

Thanks Teresa. I'm so much thankful for your quick reply. I got the video link for reverse edging, thanks.

[knit44]

are you using 2 strands of yarn of two different colors?

[tjw1963]

They are both the same. The variegated parts are aligning up different.

[wiggyboy18]

You're so talented, can I continue around just doing two stiches in each chain to complete a new row (5th, 6th, 7th etc.)and then continue again, and so on and so on to make a larger disk?

[tjw1963]

Thank you. You will need to modify the circle by evenly adding increase rounds, so it will lay flat. That may be an increase of 2 stitches every 4 or 5 stitches, every round to every other round.

[adylambert]

if i continue going around...can i make it into a hat or no?

[tjw1963]

You can but you will need to modify it as you go so it will continue to get larger to fit a head. I have several hat patterns if you are interested. There are a couple of beanies, rasta cap, beret, cloche. Let me know and I will send you the link.

[elephantcandy]

Thank you SO much!!! I am 31 yrs old and this is my 3rd time trying to teach myself how to crochet! I have been knitting for years but somehow crocheting just was always too difficult. YOU taught me how to make something!!! Now I have faith that I can learn more!!! Bless you!!!

[tjw1963]

Thank you. :)

I can give you a copy of the directions. i think they are very pretty and unique. pls respond. thanks i will use this coaster until i get your response this is for Christmas.

[tjw1963]

I am sure there are a lot of other people who would love to see what you are doing in the form of a video. Unfortunately it constitutes copyright infringement for me to do a video tutorial unless I have full permission from the creator of the pattern. If it is a pattern online, you can share the link. Maybe I can explain to you want needs to be done. It also could be a crochet pattern stitch technique. Maybe one I already have posted.

[goldsmithbright]

Ohhhhh

thak you

i couldent do crochet rounds and you help me alot

you have heaps of awesome videos

[jackieo12345]

[tjw1963]

I do have plans to do a video on joining circle motifs.

[hartkayla13]

[tjw1963]

You are welcome. Thank you for watching. :)

[koolbandmom]

I want to make a scrap yarn ripple afghan..not sure how to start...do you have any easy patterns?oh...love your youtube channel! :)

[tjw1963]

I am going to do two ripple afghan demonstrations soon.

[tjw1963]

Sometime tomorrow I will have my original ripple demonstration back up. I had a verbal error that I had to correct. I do have two more ripple demonstrations planned but this one should help you out right now.

[Wifflewaff]

You definately have a knack for teaching crochet. It's great to know that the art of crochet is starting to come back as a favorite. Mum recently taught me how to crochet and I love every minute of it. Mum and I will sit to all hours of the night crocheting and having a chat and a giggle.

Your video's have really helped with learning many of the different types of stiches which are around.

Thanks for posting your wonderful and very informative video's

All the best

[tjw1963]

You are welcome. I am pleased that so many people are able to advance their skills in crocheting.
