    Kelsey's "i made a thing" at 14:18, I understood so much, I have just finished making my Christmas gifts for my godparents and grandparents and crochet can be really challenging. And you feel so proud of yourself when you're done. Kelsey, once you start crochet you won't stop, and it makes you feel like you do not know how to count.

    • @luminarygoddess8642
      @luminarygoddess8642 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My grandma tried to teach me she was great but I can’t pull yarn through my fingers very long, it’s like someone who hates styrofoam rubbing. I have tons of respect for knitters and crocheters👏👏👏👏

    • @bellatadson

    Me and my friends started doing a craft secret Santa during lockdown. Every year we have a different person to make for and a different theme.
    This year I got my nightmare before Christmas obsessed friend, so I'm making her a Sally's dress inspired scarf. It's cost maybe £15 and the ones online that are close to it are like £50. So yay for crafting!

  • @justknotsandknots
    @justknotsandknots 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +73

    Tip to keep the yarn stops rolling around while crochet/knitting is to pull the center yarn end instead of the one that's wrap around the outside if that make sense. Makes life easier:)

    • @TamarLitvot
      @TamarLitvot 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Works with thick yarn like she has, but with thinner yarn, you can end up with a tangled mess as the inner part collapses. For thinner yarn, put the skein in a big smooth (inside) container and it can roll around without rolling away.

    Each gift was thoughtful in its own way, but seriously, TSG needs to give Rochelle her flowers! 💐 Especially in her first few months of being a Sorry Girl host! I don't know the first thing about woodworking but it was incredibly interesting (and cool) to watch the walkthrough of the exotic woods store, her practising on scrap wood, brainstorm her way through the measurements, and make the keyhole brackets. Becky's was really interesting too (felt like I was watching a Lee Valley workshop!) very cozy and empowering video

    Those loop things Kelsey was mentioning are called knitting looms.
    When I first saw Kelsey put thread the end of the crochet needle I was like omg what are you gonna try?!? Glad she figured it out with tutorials. I still follow tutorial videos whenever I'm doing a new pattern for crochet. I love that I've done crochet for a few years now 'cause it's very versatile for many projects and more flexible than knitting (which I tried for a week but couldn't get the hang of before switching to crochet instead). You can also get a hand crank knitting loom if you're a yarn craft person who wants to make projects quick.
    Also, we need a tour of Rochelle's workshop! Looks amazing!

I also love the idea of making something that the person likes or needs from scratch and Becky and Rochelle killed it! And Kelsey really did a great job making those bows and giving the sweater new life; I’m surprised she did it all in one day (it would’ve taken me weeks to learn how to do one!)
