  • Can you do two rows of shells and then a regular single or double stitch? How would I do that?

  • @614meg You can alternate rows of stitches. I do have a tutorial on my main channel called Crochet Shell Variation 4

  • This is wonderful. I am sitting with my yarn, hook, and finger paused over the pause button learning something my mother never had the patience to teach me.

  • I love your tutorial. They are so easy to follow.

    could you tell me where I could purchase the pencil grip that you use in the video.

    Thank you

    Lorraine

  • Okay, I've been crocheting for about 20 years now and if my Ma-Maw (the one who taught me originally) weren't deceased, I would have just had her teach me this. I'm completely confused. The video is so grainy and blurry that I can't see what you're doing half the time and you go so fast I can't keep up! I lost you after "now I'm going to work with my first chain"... I'm so annoyed because I keep rewinding it but still can't figure it out!!!!! You seem very knowledgeable and talented and I wish

  • Thank you again.. I find that if I do not use a stitch for a while I forget until I see it and then I remember. I just made my daughter a tiara for her birthday on Sunday! :) Thanks again for all of your amazing help!

  • Great video, none of the other videos i've seen did a second row for the shell stitch and i was kinda blank as to how to do the second row. So thank u!!!!! I have a question: I am making a blanket and i used dbl dtitches but am adding the shell stitch in the middle. after i complete the shell pattern do i keep dbl stitching in each dbl stitch of the shellto get back to my normal dbl stitch pattern? Hope this question makes sense.

  • another great video,so simple to follow,thank you so much

  • You were too fast for me. I guess this is not for beginners. However thank you for sharing, at-least I will know where to go when I'm ready.

  • What a great teacher you are, thanks for posting this. Including slow motion, it's genius :)
