First time watching, marine veteran, havent tufted a rug yet.. .. but watching videos since seeing it on Nerdforge and jazza, and I have to say I'm 2:00 in on you video and I love the energy.
I’ve watched countless vids since I’ve started tufting two years ago ..you’re literally the only one who showed bevel carving..thank you for this
Thank you so much for this video! I’m saving this for future reference for when I’m carving my rugs. Keep creating and showing the love for your craft! ❤
thank you for watching ❤️
This is absolutely the most informative video on this subject on TH-cam! So much to learn and see here! You are INCREDIBLE at your craft! I recently started tufting and have only completed 2 rugs but I hope my work can be at this level one day. Thank you for this!!!!
thank you so so much!! this means a lot 🥹
That’s so dope!!! You’re amazing ❤
Chrystal you're amazing and with the right attitude. Thank you for sharing. Bless you and prosper.
You have the MOST helpful video on carving on youtube in my
opinion. I have been watching a ton of videos and couldn't find a good one but my tufting Facebook group shared you too many times to not watch & I am not disappointed. Super helpful and detailed, thank you!!! ❤️
The way you break it down on how you did it is amazing always wanted to get into rugs nice content
Absolutely the best most informative video I have found with carving and detail work. THANK THE UNIVERSE FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHOM SHARE THE PROCESS. ❤ Subcribed and following you forever!
I was looking for this info and jeepers you gave me it and more. It's exactly what I was looking for and I learned so much, and loads that I hadn't even considered. What a boon! ❤
Thanks for all the advice, can't wait to start my first rug.
This is so far the best video ever on this topic!! Thanks so much for this! I love the different levels in the finishing rugs, I am too impatient to go to the bevel carving 😂 but it’s nice to know there is a whole world of carving beyond just trimming and making lines straight! Thanks a lot!
I just started tufting and you have saved me so much time and effort! I appreciate you!
That was in-depth. Thanks.
You’re incredible! Thank you so much! I just carved my first rug tonight, and definitely regretting not watching you video first 😅
Great video looking forward to more rug making videos!
I can easily call this the most important video on YT for this subject. Thank you.
that’s huge thank you i appreciate it!
I love you, melhores dicas que já vi até agora.
Loved the video! So helpful and informative! 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️
i’m glad you enjoyed!
Girl u did help me alot❤

Came here from Jazza's video. He said yours was the best & I agree. Excellent video !
Amazingggg Sensie
I wish I had watched this before trying to carve one of my rugs! haha this is super helpful. I used your main tutorial to make my first two rugs! thank you for the video!
oh LORD the before and after of the Caitlyn rug is a whole different ball game! i remember seeing the before in your iG story and being concerned! xD
HAHAHA i was so concerned the entire time i was making it 😅
I'm so glad I found your channel! 🎉 Your personality alone made me follow. You are hilarious. Oh the rug is nice too😅😅😅 you're the goat though
I wish I watched this before I finished my first rug... not me making literally every mistake you said not to make. BUT am keen to work on my next rug and work on my carving hehe
HHAHAHAHA ehhh better late than never huh hehe goodluck with the next one!!
Hey I just wanted to thank you so much for the tip of swiping the fibers back and forth over the neighboring colors to find what to carve, it was an absolute game changer for me! Btw you should have so many more views, your editing and filming skills are 😘👌
🥹 appreciate you so much!
God, u are real damn good at making rugs, u inspire me a lot!. Greetings from Mexico.
hi chrystal.thanks for your tips and advice.i purchased my first tufting gun and yarn from aus tufting using you code and it came in today.thanks.looking forward to starting this fun creative outlet.
keep up the great work and mind those fingers 😊
omg amazing!! all the best with your tufting journey and thank you i’ll be careful hahah ✋🏼
Kia Kaha girl. Love your advice and hints etc. well done.
Very helpful, thank you!
you’re very welcome!
Lol she kills me when she says “glue is expensive “
This was so helpful! Your right, I’ve been making rugs since December and can’t find a proper tutorial on carving. Can you make a video how you do your backing? I’ve seen many different styles but not sure the best way. Thanks!
appreciate you so much! and absolutely i can, everyone definitely does it differently but i’m more than happy to share how i do it 😁
I'm so glad I found you channel. I've been learning for about 2 months now, watching tutorials on different channels but this is definitely one of the best. I really liked your energy! Greets from Chile

thank you for watching!
THANKS!!!
Great video!, I appreciate all the effort that it took to make this. Very talented. Good instructions as well. 👍👍
Thank you.
Thank you very much!
Wtf! Been searching for months for a vid like this one. Never found one and now, bam, here it is, on my front page! Algorithm in the best way! Thank you very much! I subbed immediately! I hope you will get a lot more subs soon! Great vids and fun to watch too! 👏🏼

i have to say after owning one of your rug for around a year now, im obsessed with getting another one :D CANT WAIT to see you at SUPERNOVA
you’re the best!! can’t wait 🤩🤩
Thanks for the Spotify track from Fred again, didnt knew this track!
how you aren't on 236k subs I don't know, perfect tutorials and your accent and actions are highly content friendly. Keep this content up and you will have the subscriber amount you deserve!
appreciate you so much this is very kind 😊 hopefully one day!!
Since I got my CPI shear I've been tufting an extra few inches of "bleed area" around the edges of my rugs incase it takes a bite- I can still finish shearing and trim off the chunky part 😂
I found you randomly late last night. I've been doing research on making rugs. So far you are literally the only one who gets into detail about things other people do not even mention. And I'm obsessing over the fact that you have some beautiful swords on your wall. Lol can you use a punch needle to do the same thing as a tufting gun?
thank you so much! hahaha love my swords ⚔️ and yes you can, punch needle is like the original version of this craft! it’s just takes a lot more time but most times you can get a lot more detail with punch needle :)
made my first rug and not mad at it to be my first rug. Although the trimming between lines does give me a struggle
You get sub for this one
I'm starting in this tufting world and came across this video , wow that is one of the best I saw , gave me some confidence to shave my first bubble letters rug .
Thank you and keep doing your amazing work
Big up from France 🤟
Thank you very much for this! It's shown me I'll definitely need to spend more money X__X but it's worth it.
love ur video...
Can you make a video on adjusting pile heights
very cool video! Thank you! Everything is very clear. And this despite the fact that I do not know English))) Pictures and emotions - do not have a language. Thank you)
🥹 i’m so glad you enjoyed, this means a lot to me!!
Can anyone recommend me a rug design
Personally like cartoon or Disney characters because they are mostly 2D
Anyway you could leave a little backing around the edge of the rug and staple it to a piece of plywood to stop the CPI from eating it up. Just a suggestion. Just found your channel and love the art and trying to help. Keep it up girl
you’re a genius thank you for the tip!!!
That’s why she’s the GOAT
🥹❤️❤️
You forgot hot af also 🧶 🔥
How do i get into the community? I just started tufting and i might need help.
Muito bom seu trabalho.
gostaria de saber se você usa loop com frquencia ou cute?
thanks for putting this on reddit 🫶🏾
you’re welcome!!
is the electric shear can trim the entire surface of the carpet?
Beautiful Work, I will love to learn, but I don't know nothing about it. What is a decent starting tools?, it would be something that I can do with my stepson.
Hello! Do you know where to find iron on labels?
holy shit you tuft the colors like RIGHT on each other. i need to try that next time around...it may make trimming easier. i hate that part of rug making. the fibers just like to lay down.
Nice vid, great content. but why is the divers leg dislocated?
that’s the flipper lol
What material do you use for the backing? I'm just compiling the tool and materials list right now. Haven't bought the tuft gun yet, either.
What size frame do you use ?
I need a lint scrapper now lol
it’s so worth it!
When a mosquito passes by your ear 15:03
HAHHAHA 💀
😂😂😂
@@ChrystalChristie great video btw. I don’t tuft rugs but I love doing art and watching you get down 🔥
beautiful people out there.
I still don’t get how to do it idk what I’m doing wrong
My biggest issue is my yarn keeps coming out of my gun. I’d love it if you could address what you do to keep your yarn in your gun throughout the entire process.
Any info is greatly appreciated.
i feeeeeel you, this is definitely the most annoying thing ever when ur tufting.
there is a way to change the size of the needle hole so the yarn doesn’t slide out, they show you in this video
instagram.com/p/CNJf4P8F4Nu/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
What oil do you use for the gun
it’s called 3 in 1 oil i get it on amazon!
Is that Jack post in back ground😂😂
Good day, how do we adjust the sensor? my tufting gun when I switch on it start running without me operating it.
oh that’s weird! might be manufacturing error, try to contact the place you purchased ur gun because it shouldn’t be doing that
@@ChrystalChristie Hi I was able to fix it. Thanks
do you recommend using alternative materials such as l burlap ?
i’ve personally never used it, some people love it and some people hate it. It’s definitely cheaper but i wouldn’t use it
what is the best size and material of yarn to use?
for yarn you can use 8ply or even 12ply :)
Y u so cool dude
I was wondering how u display your rugs on that wall at the convention I’m having my first shop and I’m trying to figure out what to use to display my rugs effectively
took me a few tries but with the smaller rugs i get really long pins and pin them onto the back wall. Otherwise with the larger rugs I used clips on them and tied ribbons off that to hang them from the top of the wall 😁 i also had a few rugs on the table for people to touch. Some people use coat hangers with clips on them to hang them from a rack too
Goodluck with your shop!!
@@ChrystalChristie ohhh okok thanks so much was the wall provided at the convention or you bought it yourself if so where did you get it
@@ChrystalChristie if you can do a ur video explaining your process for the convention and all the tools you used that would be so helpful :) Just subscribed btw love ur vids♥️
I love her... 🥰
i bet her rug is well kept
I saw another guy using the machine that you hate, If you leave the rug on the frame, straighten, and pass the machine it won't do that I guess, because he was passing it over without a care heheheheh
I was on your live for the last one you messed ip. That machine does look scary
omg u saw it happen 😅🤣

The folding part seems like a waste of time but if you don’t want edges to fray it’s important to fold the edges it locks the tufting fabric threads there’s literally just rubber glue holding your rug together if your fabric isn’t secure
i use 3 types of glue to hold everything into place when backing the rugs. Everything gets set and holds its place and is secured by heading tape too :)
would give 69420 thumbs up if i coud. thanks for this essential video
thank you so much 🥹 so glad you enjoyed!
I just spent over $1000 on all the equipment I would ever need. (I think). Is this your full time job at this point? I would love to move away from IT support.
Umm I spent 150…😂 why u pay so much? Did u buy 50000 yards of yarn😂?
watching the person carve the rug with their fingers on the rug carving tool at 6:44 made me cringe so hard.
Please halp me am from Ethiopia in Ethiopia its so hard to gate the gan 😢Pls pls halp me am your fan i seen your videos all of them you are my tether pls halp me i want to do this work pls pls
Me again... use Teflon gloves to avoid a severe cut.
