Thanks for the tutorial. I am using this pattern to create beds for my local animal shelter.
I love how you didn't start with a magic circle. Very beginner friendly, thank you!
I love it too
I have a suggestion to make the sides of the bed stand up better: On the first row of the side, work sc into the front loop (the side of the "v" of the stitch that is facing you as you work). That way the sides will lean inward more quickly. Then do a sc into each stitch for the rest of the side.
yes this will work fine. Working in the front loops will stretch the stitches out over time with the weight of the pets though
@@CrochetwithClare ah I didn't think about that... thanks!
Love this and the colors you chose. Thank you for your videos!
I'm making this right now for my two cats!! I can't wait to show you the finished project! Your tutorials are so easy to follow! Thank you for teaching me how to crochet!!
Hello Roxie, you are very welcome and thank you so much for watching

Absolutely ! What a great idea and thank you for watching, happy crochet
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I was having some trouble with the magic circle and I’m glad I found this video. ❤️😁
I am so glad that this video helped you. they do take a little practice to get down
Really simple to understand. I’ve used your videos for a few projects before. Your accent is so cheery! It adds to the enjoyment. Great video xx
Thank you for watching Ella !
Thank you so much for this pattern. All your tutorials are wonderful! I have some yarn that I ended up not liking for the project I wanted to do, and it will be perfect for this. I don't have a dog or cat either, so will make a couple for the animal shelter near me for the upcoming winter. Cats will be cozy!
Perfect idea Sally ! The cats/dogs are going to love it, thank you for choosing my pattern
Thank you for this video😍love it
This is so cute!! Can't wait to make it!

Thank you! I will be making big bed's for my dogs.:-)
Love your comment about the Magic Circle! lol I am 59 and have been crocheting since I was 9 and it still boggles the mind.
:)
That's great never heard of crab stitch.looks good.THANKS🐱🐹
G'day Margaret Johnston thank you for your comment, thank you for watching
Been doing these for a couple years now sith a slightly different technique. Using 2 or 3 strands of worsted weight yarn and size J hook & start with 6 rather than 8 sc into ring, increases are done the same. When reaching required diameter we build up the sides until twice as tall as needed, then roll sides down to make it more sturdy. My Stitch Group friends and I donate these in various sizes to animal rescue centers in Florida. They line them with paper toweling for bird, kitten, puppy, squirrel, etc rescues
Thank you for sharing your technique :)
nice! thank you Clare
love it! we have 9 cats, so that's a lot of work 😀😺
So have I, but they always prefer my bed :-D
How cute :)
Thank you
Stay warm as I know winter will be there soon.
Thank you, its already winter and its freezing bbrrr
+bobwilson123 please send us some cool weather we are melting here in the states

Awesome, thank you so much for watching
thank you this is so cute ! thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching
I can only wish that I will be able to make beautiful stitches like yours! The colors turned out to be very nice!
with practice and patience you can make anything you want
Thanks for this..I have just about completed my girlie's bed. Mine's about 15" across the bottom, I just kept increasing until about 19 sc then 2sc together....you tutorial inspired me to go a little bigger..
Awesome I am sure she will love it :)
omg this is to adorable.. making this for my daughter she just got a kitten.
It will be pur-fect haha sorry couldnt help it
Nice cuddly puppy 😁
yes he is a little cutie
He is already housebroken as well! :D
I plan on making this for my (real) puppy!
Like this❤❤❤
Thank you 😊
Cute
Thank you :)
thank you for the pattern to follow but I did a little something different.. When I was ready to start the row where you go up to make the basket.. I did only the front loop.. or the one closet to me all around with SC and then continued up 4 inches.. then I did the front loop only and started the last 4 inches of the bed.. doing the front loops only on these two round really helps for it to stand up straight and bend over.
Thank you for your great feedback and for your great tips
At least you made enough hats, scarves, afghans and shawls to keep u warm. :)
Sure have :)
I am going to do some for our cat shelter.🐱🐹
My cat is like jello, but he's big. He's 16 pounds and as long as a twin bed is wide. He could probably curl up and melt into that size. Anyhow, I still would like to make him one. Great tutorial!
WOW that is a big cat !! Thank you for your great feedback
I would love to make this for my Chihuahua Dog !!!!!
So adorable !

This video is AMAZING. Thank you!!! Question! Could you do the base as you did (single stitch) but do double stitches on the sides? Would it go up as normal? I like the sides higher up but it's taking a long time to finish and thought it would be easier to do double stitch instead!
G'day audreybieber1 THANK YOU and thank you for your comment. You can d it that way but the double crochet is such a tall stitch that it will offer no stablitliy, the only way to help it would be to have tight tension with the double crochet by having a smaller hook

Hi, I'm working on the increases and stopped at 20" but it isn't standing straight or standing up what do I do ?
G'day Cameryn George thank you for your comment. How many rounds have you done after your last increase round ? Have you joined our group yet? You can share all of your bobwilson123 projects here. facebook.com/groups/338449986970915/
@@CrochetwithClare I haven't started the rounds for the sides yet, I've stopped at the increase rounds.
@@cameryngeorge5007 as you crochet the side without the increases it will start to stand up
hi there. Just wondering if you noticed the orb in your video you were posting on the pet bed? Look at l:08 and then there it is. By the way I love your videos. I was wondering if you had a missed pet that was visiting you?? Hugs from CANADA
Hello, nope that was just dust :)
Lovely video but i have a question how big is the bed when finished i have a medium/large dog and was wondering if this would fit him lol
hi, you can make the bed as large or small as you like. all you need to do is keep increasing the base until it is the size you need and then start working on the sides
Hello..I was wondering if I could use a bulky or super bulky yarn for this instead of using 2 strands if worsted weight
Yes for sure :) Just as long as you have tight tension
I use Patons yarn so i have no idea what is considered 8 ply or 10 ply considering im in Canada...the yarns i have are Patons Canadiana which is a number 4 yarn according to the the label...not sure if it would work for this project or not
10ply is the same as worsted in america and most other countries like red heart super saver, patons worsted, and 8ply is the same as double knitting yarn or dk yarn. 4ply would be fingering or sock weight. I know the US will have worsted weight with the number 4 on it and it will say that on some other worsted weight yarns as well
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. 🐱 🐹
G'day Margaret Johnston thank you and you are very welcome, thank you so much for watching my video and for supporting my channel
Thank you for the video. Will the curling go away when you start the sides? Mine is really curling.
Thank you
hi Patti, yes the curling should go away once the sides of the walls build up
Your written pattern sat Ch2 for the first round and you did 1. Which one should I do? Because the next round says to do 2sc in the Ch2
OMGosh I am so sorry ! The video is correct but the pattern was not
I though I saved the corrections, obviously not. Thank you for letting e know and sorry for the confusion
Happy crochet
Mine is really wavy even after doing the single crochet round. The bottom piece isnt laying flat with the sides. Any suggedtions on how to fix it ?
Hey Carla, if you can email me a nice clear photo I can see if I am able to come up with a solution
`does anyone know why i keep doing 2sc in the stitch before the last? ive restarted completely a few times but the same things keeps happening.
Hello, no I am not sure why this is happening, maybe the wrong stitch is marked ?
If you use four strands in double knit what size hook please do I need to use.🐱🐹
G'day Margaret Johnston thank you for your comment, thank you for watching. I would use a 10mm crochet hook
Can i use 1 strand of the super bulky yarn 4 this project ???
yes you could use super bulky. you can use basically whatever yarn you have as long as it ends up being thick enough. use a hook that will make it a stiffer project
Clare, it is called a "crab st" because crabs walk backwards!! LOL!! It's also called a "rope st" because of how chunky it is!!
:)
+bobwilson123 :)
can I use Bernat blanket yarn cats will love this tia.I love your videos.
Yes i can not see why not, make sure you tension is tight so you can get a stiff fabric
Hi Clare, I had to laugh at the end of the video there was a wee creepy crawley running across the carpet.
WHAT !! Really ?? I am off to watch that
I think it was dust catching in the sunlight :)
Clare I hope I haven't upset you it was not intended to. I thought it was quite funny. It may be on you camera. Just don't pay it.
Sorry i am from moroco dont understand english very well but your vedio i understand what you mean thank y too much
Hi
I have a 240 pound mastiff...ah well
Just made one for my great dane.
Como vc subiu as laterais?
Mine rippled really bad... I stopped don't know what to do now.
Hello, if you stop increasing and work rounds of no increasing this should help you, You may need to take out a few rounds
I tried that even went up a hook size,it ended up being a basket... Oh well, thanks☺️
Are your pattern's available on "Ravelry"? I just started trying to keep track of my projects on my "Ravelry" Account. I hope it works.. anyway I am working on this bed now. It is a "Barter" with my Dog groomer. I'm making a bed for her pup that is expecting her first litter. I have always wanted to make a bed for my pets. So this is my first attempt. I linked to this YT and to your Website Page. I'd like to link it to your Ravelry if you have that also.... I added one row of BP SC To make a "Ridge" once I had the base area completed, I just started on the walls now.... I think it will help it to stand up more? I hope anyway. We shall see.....
Yes, just about all of my patterns are on Ravelry 😃
Thank you for choosing my pattern
@@CrochetwithClare Awesome !!!
You can avoid the flat sides look by staggering the increase stitches in each round.
You can also further stiffen the sides by turning the sides by doing a row of BLO single crochet and the doubling the rows to match the side count.
I did make a dog bed of sorts from your Granny Square Bottom Bag. No handles and I crocheted more rounds to make it very long. I used 2 strands of cotton yarn but it's floppy. They lay on it doubled, or I open it out and flatten the bottom and then puddle the sides to make a nest. They can also crawl inside it. They are Doxies, so they like to tunnel and be covered up.
Great suggestion !
Not a big deal , After youve`done the 8 SC into the circle,You say 1CH Pattern say 2 Ch, Also states in pattern Notes after 6 rounds ,"each row will have 1 more SC in between the HDC`s". is that saying Half Double Crochets?
Hello, no the whole pattern is in single crochet and I have just made a typo ...sorry about that
I'm sorry
I freeze when the A/C is on so I usually wear a jacket and comfy pants
LOL
Me too, air con makes me cold :)
Hi please I want you to make mermaid doll
Hello, sorry i do not know how to make toys
Pena que não dá para entender 😌
You didn't show the rest stitching.. only showed base stich so begineers like me won't understand
I explain that when you get to the size you want, you just stop increasing and then work one stitch into each stitch. you just keep doing that until the sides are as high as you like. the end of the video explains the height that you need to make it sturdy as wll
