- Due to lockdowns, people around the world took up crocheting during the Covid-19 pandemic. Handsewn masks were all the rage on craft platforms like Etsy. Ghib discovers that in Singapore, some young people have turned this simple hobby into a business and an artform.
Ghib meets Terrix and Angie, who run craft workshop Tiny Rabbit Hole as a couple. He learns that the craft of crochet is shedding its frumpy image as more young people get hooked on it. He also visits an exhibition by Kelly Limerick, a renowned crochet artist in Singapore, marveling at the works of art produced from just a few crochet hooks and balls of yarn.
As he works on creating a pouch for this grandma, Ghib begins to reconnect with own his family history, as his grandparents used to sell knitwear.

Ghib is a good n fun host. Doesn’t matter if he or she is local or not, most importantly is the content of the show n how he is able to draw viewers to watch it.
Agreed!!
I love crochet, I even do it myself! I always love to see more and more people doing this!
I love this show as Ghib makes such a good host! So candid and fun to watch 😅
What a wonderful program.
Thank you so much for hosting this series Ghibさん. I really see myself in this video and hopefully, as they all said, people see the value and effort being put into these unique handmade products. Support local handrafters! 🥳
Elsie is in Ang Mo Kio. My favourite shop too :D
Nice to see that there are still youngsters picking up crochet. I can crochet and knit. In addition to the fact that crochet cannot be mass-produced, it is also more versatile as in an entire sweater, bags, jackets, etc can all be made using only crochet hooks while products using knitting still needs stitching using needles or crochet. Crochet can also be used for making buttons and any decorations you can think of to add to your final product.
Lol it's my favourite store too!. I also enjoy going there to buy yarn since the yarn there is quite affordable 😆 I've gone to golden dragon as well but Elsie's is still my go to since it's in the heartlands. I've just started this year(I'm sec school now) I've made a lot of toys so far lol 😆
I enjoyed this very much. Thank You all. A problem with buying supplies etc. for craft work is that the sales staff seem to have no knowledge of their products. For example if you want a pattern that's in American and you want to use another yarn, of the same weight they have no idea what it means or even try to find out, for a paying customer.
Yes I am sure that she will think it is a great gift and YOU also are a great gift to her. It was sweet how you thought of her while doing this video. Kudos!
Im a male I started crochet with my grandma when I was 6.. the repetitive movement is really therapeutic. Back in September 2020 I came back to crochet again because it was the most stressful part of the pandemic 🥰 I specialize on recycled yarns
The purple colour is really great
I gotten into this craft bc of my dads own mums history of knitting and crochet and I am the only family member that does it in my own and i've seen photos of what my dad used to wear that his own mum made espcially for him and I want to recreate it all again!!!
This was beautiful. Thank you 💞

Wow after seeng this video I encourage to continue my crochet journey
Oh my! I wanna go there someday! 🥰
wow! nice
I met a christian lady who took a whole lot of knitting and crochet needles to India as part of an outreach to teach the women.
Wow it's amazing
And then try to proselytise them in the process.
So, is Ghib still Hook on Crochet? He looks like he really enjoyed himself. Lovely video.
Nice video 😍
While NHK has numerous journalists and narrators from various nationalities working on multiple programs, comments here about CNA having one! Japanese narrator are still showing such a 'unique' mindset of people with small hearts🙄.
Omg they have amazing talent! Wonder if this couple has a Etsy or instagram?
Yay
Second
💕💕💕💕💕😂😂😂😂
I dont understand why Japanese cant wear their mask properly in Singapore. Lucky he didn't get caught by a SDA, a couple of Japanese in my workplace also have this issue. I don't see how a crocheted mask works, what kind of filtration can you get?
CNA has no qualified journalist. Must outsource to a Japanese youtuber
Ghib already has a well-known TH-cam channel, wouldn't it be better for CNA to find a young local host to groom local talent ? Just saying.
It's a thing to support a local artist... But as professionals, don't you think CNA crews will remember and willing to work with a reputable & accountable person in a certain field? Afterall, professional work is all about using the available assets & resources efficiently & effectively. They'll will get trouble if they just beat about the bush gather no moss.... Don't you agree? 🤔😉🤗
And to add to this, he seems like a person whose humble enough, willing to try to do new things, with all the process & details, thorughly. That's a character that suitable to "guide" us in "experiencing" this kind of arsty fartsy activity. It's not just any people who can do this, you know? 😗😏
@@mirarami1055 He lied about his background for a long time. His landlord turned out to be his mother in law.
@@SuccessforLifester I used to called my parents as my sponsors & stakeholders when i was still a student. After I could earn some money, I monthly pays some amount of money to my parents for my living costs with them... Because I also see them as my "landlords".
Somebody could have many roles in others lives. A man could be a husband, a father, the head of the family, the landlord of a property, the GM of a company, etc. So, what's the fuss? 😗
A friend of my mom also required her all grown up children to pay her a sum of "room renting" money soon after they could earn their money.... She is their mother, also their "land lady". She did that to teach her children how to be the responsible adults. Is this not acceptable for you? 😗
@@mirarami1055 no he lied about his marriage in the beginning. Only told the truth later.
@@SuccessforLifester Well, did he lied to get another girl to be able to marry again, or to protect his private life & his family? 😗 He got his own consideration.... We should honour someone else's decision if he/she don't wanna to make it public. As long that's not against the law & order of Singapore, that's out of our domain as the spectators. You see, our life will be happier if we're not too fussy about "things" & people... Keep it simple, Silly! 😉💓🤗 WUATB, GBU 🙏😊
