[dougiedehond]

Really helpful and very clear instructions. Thank God you used the normal terms and not the american ones, thats always so confusing!

[lynfendleyfoster]

Delightful, thank you so much, and yes, please keep these videos coming. I am trying very hard to create a houndstooth pattern, and I see online a moss stitch where you change yarn colors to make the houndstooth pattern. I did get confused, which is why I cam searching for instruction, and how I found your videos. I find them very helpful!

[groovyvirgochick]

I found this simple to understand which is just what I need. Keep them coming Please.

[pandatori]

it helped me....

[brigadoondays]

This person has good diction, and the speed of the demo is acceptable. But she has mis-identified the stitch she is creating. Inserting the hook into the center of the circle, drawing the yarn back through the center to have two loops on the hook, and then drawing through both at once is a SINGLE crochet, not a double, as stated. A learner wants to enjoy acquiring a new skill, not be frustrated by confusing instruction.

[craftmastery]

American and English terms differ for the same crochet stitches. A single crochet (sc) in American patterns would be called a double crochet (dc) in English patterns but the stitch is exactly the same.

Hope this helps.

It was my first video and I used English terms

[giannisacco]

That was the first thing I noticed as well! It would be worth a quick note at the beginning of the videos that the terms employed are UK and not US. In any event, the woman crocheting these lessons gets top marks all around: her diction is clear and understandable, the dark background does much to make her hands, yarn and hook clearly visible, and her work is extraordinarily precise. Wonderful, wonderful job.

I just wanted to thank you for this video.. my Great grandmother had taught me how to make a chain when I was younger and recently I wanted to re-learn how.. well this video helped me do it!!! And believe me- I have been watching video after video and I think this one is excellent!!

[craftmastery]

I'm glad I could help... I'm in the middle of making more videos... so keep watching :)

[josiebushby]

Do I have to have a needle, or can you do it without?

[emoturbin]

OMFG IM GOING TO BUST A NUT!! I CAN NOT DO THIS!!!!!! i do it perfectly every single fucking time and it just gives me this huge fucking knot.

[MagicMadame]

same here :(

[DaCanadianAce]

Thanks for the video although every time i try i always mess up, well practice.(for me)

[GoddessGood]

It should be noted that when she refers to a "double crochet" that this is the European name for that stitch. In America this is the single crochet. The European "single crochet" is called a "slip stitch" in America.

Another thing that I like about this video is that she's holding the yarn "tail" so that it gets worked into the stitches as she goes and she has less to weave in later. This is a technique that some books don't talk about.

[urracan]

amazing, and BTW I JUST LOVE your accent.

[Goddessgol]

Holly COW! I totally did a circle. It didn't look perfect...but I did it. Thank you for not complicating it. Although I have a different way of holding my yarn, I'm not sure if it's ok to find your own comfortable way of holding it or not. But thank you so much.

[splitdog]

thanks! thats a really great video.

[tepeltje]

i'm left handed so it's difficult to hold the stick (or how it's called)i tried it though.... if i'm going to try it with my left hand it's going to be mirrored everytime and that's not realistic i think. What shall i do?

[mspaula2u]

Great video.. easy to understand.. too bad it's a single crochet that's shown in the video... NOT a double crochet!! :( very confusing to those that rely on these types of videos to teach and show them how to crochet.

[dabirdmonkey]

amarican single crochet is called double crochet in british, so yeah its a bit confusing, american double= british triple (or treble)

[dajamama]

Thanks this was great

[afm813]
