  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!!

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

  • Why are there ten dislikes to this video?

    This video was awesome!

    I just started crochet the night before last night.

    ^-^ LOVE IT

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

  • 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.

  • 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!

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

  • u need 2 zoom in more! I can't see how you do that and when it is zommed in you go to fast!!

  • same here :(

  • thanks :)(:

  • it helped me....
