My daughter Kassidy shows you how to make her zipper pulls aka "Kassidy's Keychains" I also use them on my project bags. My Chunky Thread Yarn comes in 26 of my "happy colors" and matches my fabrics and other notions. I have 6 more colors coming in the spring!

    Lori. Please don't apologize for the length of your videos--they are so enjoyable and I always am inspired by all your examples. I find it helpful to see how you use your buttons, flowers, yarns, etc. I'm happy that you are showing us so many of the needle arts. Just like you, my grandmothers showed me the basics of crochet. How fun to add touches of it to our project bags! Thank you for all you do!

    I learned to crochet as a child my mother worked and put me in every craft class that was available in our small village. Crochet, knitting, hucktowel stitching,embroidery, weaving. My childhood was very busy and I have been very thankful for her insight. I have gone on to quilting, cross stitch, stain glass, ceramics. I am so thankful for my I pad and U tube, I just had my 80th birthday and have haa

    I really enjoyed watching you and your daughter. I was lucky enough to have my mom and grandmother teach me how to crochet and I taught my daughter and I hope to one day teach my granddaughter ( she just turned 2 😉) I really love your colors in yarn and how they all work together. I’m looking forward to crocheting up some of these flowers and making some of the zipper pulls.
    Thank you for sharing your talents with all us. Have a blessed day.😊

    My grandmother who lived to be 102 crocheted beautiful doilies and round pillows. Unfortunately I did not learn to crochet from her but In 1977 I took a class in high school that actually included learning how to crochet! I didn’t do so well but I’m 62 now and finally have gotten better over the years. I love watching all your videos! I sew as well. I really enjoyed this video because I’ve made crochet flowers and dritz buttons a few years ago for projects but never thought to put a button on the flower. This is so cute! And I plan on making some soon. I also really liked Cassie’s keychain instructions and want to make some of those as well. I hope someday that my granddaughter Hannah Grace will enjoy making these crafts with me❤️

    I just love your chuncky thread. It reminds me of my mother ( she passed away 3 years ago ) she loved to crochet dish clothes for her neices. I miss her very much and looking at your thread brings back many happy memories. Thanks for doing what you do and bringing back the vintage vibe. Love your stuff. Kim C.

    I am soon to be 65 and have never done crochet--just couldn't understand the different types of stitches...even trying to do chains--fail, lol! But the sweet little colorful flowers drew me in and something finally clicked with your instructions. I think I can do this!! Thank you, Lori for a great tutorial and such a fantastic line of products!

    My heart was warmed watching your hands crochet like I use to watch my Mother teach me to crochet. I learned when I was around 8 or 9 and I am now 74 and still. crocheting. I am a quilter - pieced and long armer and I love to do cross stitch since I had the same eye surgery as Kimberly Jolly. That opened up a new world back into cross stitch. I throughly enjoy your tutorials and want to thank you and your friend Kimberly for all your devoted time to our craft. Winning the chunky thread prize would make my crafting dreams come true.

    My grandmother taught me how to crochet when I was around 7 years old. I use to crochet all the time but when I started to quilt and cross stitch it kind of got lost in the shuffle. Your video reminded me of my grandmother and now I’m wanting to crochet something. Thank you for bringing back those memories.

      I am glad you have these memories of your grandmother. I am missing mine so much and her violets that she gave me are blooming in my garden reminding me she’s still with me. I started the vintage housewife quilt as the apron in it reminds me of my great grandmother wearing her apron when she cooked. I miss them both so much. I am blessed though for the time I spent with them. Take care everyone.

    My grandmother taught me to crochet. She was a wonderful lady. Isn't it a blessing to have such fond memories of these ladies. It is not something I have had a lot of time for lately but I will be trying the flowers. And I thought Cassidy's fobs were great. I make my own project bags and would love to add these. Thanks for the great video...I love all of your videos whether it is quilting, cross stitch or crochet.

    I am amazed that I am not the only person, that likes to crochet, cross stitch, quilt, embroidery make clothes, and other crafty things. Where have you been. I am new to your sites, but I am loving every thing I have seen so far. Now when you talk about being organized I perk up an really listen to how you get all this done. I think the last thing you show was the needle tips and that you use them for your scissors that is just cool.

    I really enjoyed Kassidy’s demonstration of the key fob. Ever since I first seen them on your bags I’ve been wanting to make them. I love your yarn colors. I’ve been wanting to try them. Happy little stitch shop said they will be selling a starter set. My grandmother taught me how to crotchet when I was very you, now I’m wanting to make some flowers for my machines and bags. Sew cute!

    I loved this video. My grandma taught me to crochet just days before we lost her and it is a memory and time together that I will always cherish! I only really had time to learn very basic information from her so I love that you are teaching how to put those fundamentals to use and how to bring crochet into areas I wouldn’t have generally thought about.

    I have been making crochet flowers for many years, but out of crochet thread. Today I followered along with your chunky thread that I am using to make a granny square blanket. And thanks Cassidy for your tutorial...you did a great job. Your mom is so blessed to have a talented daughter.

    Mother/daughter duo taking the CROCHET World by storm! Seeing these sweet flowers reminded me of my grandma. She made me a crocheted flower pillow when I was a teenager. I still have it and I'm 62! I am going to try making the zipper pull tassel. A cute addition to a project bag. Thank you for sharing your creativity. 😊

    I learned to crochet when I was in a hospital for tuberculosis patients my senior year of HS. My friends definitely weren’t happy to get the TB vaccine that year. Sounds familiar in 2021. I loved it and continue to this day. Blankets are my go to gift for family. I love all your cute stuff. Thanks for the keychain tutorial, Kassidy. I used to do a lot of macrame back in the day.

    I have enjoyed watching you and Cassidy! Love her key tassels. Crochet is a passion. I was taught when I was about 7from a favorite Aunt while visiting my Granny. I made purses and Bible covers using Granny squares. I learned to make afghans and so on. I love crocheting doilies and bedspreads out of cotton thread. I actually use tobacco looper thread ( cotton) for that. I started a weekly crochet group at church teaching girls and ladies to crochet. We make Prayer Shawls, Prayer Blankets, Baby Blankets and chemo caps for cancer patients along with toboggans for Operation Christmas Child and for homeless shelters. I find so much comfort and peace while hooking! Thanks for sharing your love and instructions with us💗💙❤️

    Your flowers and covered buttons are adorable. They remind me of my Mom. My Mom always had yarn in her hand. She lived for her crafting. Until her stroke took that from her. But the gift of her teaching my sister and I how to crochet, knit, sew and so much more lives on with us.

    I was introduced to crochet by my Aunt Mary when I was about 9 or 10. Many years lapsed before I started to crochet again. I love to make scarves and afghans in crochet - especially trying new stitches. I am excited to try your crochet flowers and your Kassidy's key chains/tassels and apply them to my scarves. Such beautiful colors! Thanks so much for sharing your experience and wonderful memories with us!

    My 8 year old daughter will be so excited this episode came out- she’s been waiting for the little flower instructions since you mentioned it awhile ago and asks me all the time if it’s out yet! I’m excited to watch it again with her and help her get started crocheting!! She watches me quilt and begs to do whatever I’m doing. Your little goodie haul would be especially fun for her!

    We used to make bracelets like Cassidys fobs when we were kids with embroidery floss but I love how they look with the chunky thread. I am so excited to make colorful flowers for my sewing machines. I made one using a different, less clear pattern and my machine looked like it was wearing a bonnet instead of a spool pin flower! Thank you for sharing these crochet tips and more!

Also, thanks to Kassidy, for showing us how to make her zipper pulls. Looks like fun and I will have to try to make them. I absolutely love all things thread, yarn and cloth related so, Lori, whatever you want to show us I want to see! Have a great week!

Spending an hour watching & listening to your calm voice as you work, eyeing all the pretty colours & things in your Happy Place has lifted me to a happier place. I’ll be spending this lockdown making Crochet Flower garlands and Cassidy key chain fobs ready for Christmas giving 🥰😍

      Hi Lori, once again another great video. You also bring back memories of when I was little and would see this great art of crochet. I enjoy see this craft coming back. There is nothing better on a cold New England night to wrapped up and a warn homemade Afghan. I love the face that you show how ways to store your carfts and that fact that you don’t waste anything. I am very neat and don’t like to have crafts out where they can be damages. Thank you again and have a great day

    @momlady7360 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Crocheting is such a practical art. I first learned as a very young girl making lace doilies from my grandmothers pattern books from the 30's. I really got involved in the later 60's and early 70's when everyone was doing the zigzag as well as granny squares afghans and vests! Does anyone remember the Daisy Quilt you could make with the daisy loom? Since then I went on to do a pineapple tablecloth when I got married and was pregnant overseas and snow bound in our quarters. My whole life hand arts have helped through happy times as gifts and comfy decorations and solace during the terrible sad times. I really appreciate that you come from a long line of handy crafting ladies and have now taught your daughter those very same skills as I do all the ladies who have shared their stories on this chat. Thank you Lori and Kassidy.

    @jenniferjungels 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love that you make these videos! I watch them all. My mom taught me how to crochet about 13 years ago. I made 3 afghans in just a few months, and then due to life getting in the way I had put it down for quite a few years and have been trying to remember how to do it all again. I have heard of blocking and my mom had said she would show me how since my afghans always ended up with one end wider than the other, but due to some health issues she has not been able to teach me yet. Can’t wait to see that video! Your chunky threads look like heaven to work with! I love how you explain things. They make sense in my brain. Kassidy’s keychains are awesome as well! Reminds me of gimp keychains from when I was a kid. Thank you both for sharing your amazing talents!!!

    Last year I made my first quilt and started cross stitching again after making two projects in the 80’s. My mom is still crocheting in her 90’s and tried to teach me as a child but as she is left handed and I am right it was awkward for me. My favorite is your explanation on how to create the stitches to make the flowers. I found them very easy to understand and I’m inspired to try crochet again. I look forward to seeing your videos. Thank you.

    @HopeChandlerSteele 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    You definitely have a way to bring joy of crochet back to those who have lost it. I am self taught but my grandmother always made granny square afghans for presents with the best 70's colors of burnt orange, brown, and yellow. Lol Your crocheted flowers will be a perfect project while I'm in the pick up line at my kiddo's school. I'm actually very excited for the covered button project now. Time to go shopping!! Love your videos and your teaching style. I can't wait to get your skeins and crochet a few flowers for my featherweight machine as well. My mother bought it for me so it's so very special. Thank you again for all you have done for the crafting world!!!

    My grandma taught me to crochet when I was 10. I’m 46 now and still love to make the granny squares that were her teaching tool for me.
    Thanks so much for all the wonderful videos you put out. I’m loving the crochet and flosstube videos and hope to one day be a quilter as well.

  • @sagensandone6906
    @sagensandone6906 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    My mother tried to teach me how to crochet when I was a girl, but I would get frustrated because I was left handed and she was right handed and it never quite seemed to click. She was a sewer and made most of my clothes as a child, but unfortunately I lost her at a young age. She gave me a good foundation for sewing, embroidery so I took it from there and self taught with the use of books and magazines, but then came along TH-cam and channels such as yours. What a game changer. I love your Videos and your teaching style. These vibrant yarns would be great in all kinds of projects. I’ll have another go at crochet.

  • @melaniefagan3613
    @melaniefagan3613 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    My grandmother taught me to crochet afghans years ago and I'm sad to say I've forgotten how. But seeing you make these cute flowers and the granny squares from the previous video I'm going to have to relearn. I especially like the 100% cotton chunky thread, I'll be making flowers and pulls for my project bags. I like how you make everything for each project and it all coordinates since I cross stitch, quilt and will now try my hand at crochet as well. Thanks for all the great designs, projects & products!

    Are you kidding….my wife Pat watches your tutorials all the time. She sews, quilts, crafts in so many styles but lately, crochet is too of her list. She doesn’t know i am entering your give away. She mentioned that she should but didn’t expect any luck so she didn’t bother. I am trying for her. Your chunky thread looks amazing…she’d love some. Crochet is her favourite these days. Thanks for sharing, as she tells me she learned at least two new techniques today, from your crochet and Cassidy’s zipper pulls.

  • @tomib6186
    @tomib6186 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I’m amazed at the little crochet flowers. I’ve done crochet for about 50 years. The finer the thread the harder it is for me. I usually crochet with yarn. The tension is my issue. Either too loose or too tight……practice makes perfect. Although as you said nothing is perfect but good use of my time is the goal. Going to make a few keychains for gifts also. Thanx for the great video👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    I used to CROCHET years ago, and your video has inspired me to dust off my CROCHET hooks and give these little flowers a try. I liked seeing all of your different and creative project bags! I loved your idea of putting a CROCHETed flower under the spool of thread on your sewing maching....it sure would look better than the piece of felt I have on there now. Thank you!

I crochet flowers but never thought of doing them and using them like you do. Also, Cassies' Keychains are a great way to get my granddaughter interested in crochet. I look forward to more videos!

    Hi Lori! My sister sent me this video of your crochet flowers this week and I am so glad she did! I enjoyed watching it and learning from it. Your daughter Kassidy's Keychain Zipper Pull is so awesome! Your button cover kits are another nice craft to make and can be applied to so many neat items that will bring a smile to anyone's face! I like that you have your own brand of yarn and your own Crochet Hooks plus your own measuring tape dispenser as well! What a lucky week that I discovered you as you are having a Giveaway for your Subscribers! I am now one of them and hope to win. Have a good day, Lori!

    Crochet is so very relaxing. My favorite part of this video was you and your daughter both doing a tutorial. How special! I enjoyed you both. Blessings!

    Oh Lori, I was so very excited to learn you were doing a video to show us all how to crochet mini flowers with your chunky yarn 🧶 in all those beautiful colors. About 10 years ago my oldest daughter (now 17) learned how to crochet and hs tried to teach me how to make mini flowers for my scrapbooking (mostly so I can make my own in colors I love and not buy ones that are not so matchy matchy to my projects) I tried and tried and could never do it! Well now, I have this video to refer back to and give it another go so I too can match/add them to my cross stitch projects, project bags and yes, scrapbook pages I make! Thank you so much! And,...what a bonus to be able to also make some tassels to add to my travel journals, project bags and have for keychains too! Thank you Cassidy! You all are awesome for sharing your skills! Thanks again for the great crochet and tassels video! ♥️🧶🪡🧵

    Hi! My name is Barbara and I am a crochet addict! I'll be honest and say I tend to fast forward through many of the videos I watch, but I watched this one start to finish. I loved that it was multifaceted with not only the crochet, but covered buttons and eeeek! macrame. Ive always wanted to try macrame and I'm excited to make a bunch of these tassles. And I'm digging through my yarn stash now to make a bunch of these flowers! I think I will join as I go and make a cute little cafe curtain with them 💗 Thank you!!!

    I have been crocheting and other hand arts for over 60 years and always like learning something new, both the flower and fob were fun. I also like that you do videos on all of the hand arts - I crochet, cross stitch and quilting - I really enjoy your videos.

    This is the greatest crochet video ever! I can't thank you enough. I have admired your crochetted flowers and zipper pulls for a long time. Not only can I make them but I can also teach my granddaughters how to make them. I always enjoy your videos and even though I have been sewing/crocheting for years I ALWAYS learn something. Thank you so much. God bless you!

    I hadn't done any crochet for years and recently my grandson wanted a spiderman blanket so I picked up a hook, bought some blue, red and black wool. Wow, he just loved his blanket and now I'm totally "hooked" again. Love your crochet flowers and plan to make lots!

    I am so excited that you have been able to do another crochet video. Please keep making more. You have the most wonderful ideas. I was so glad to hear that your yarn is available again. I have used up my stash of Chunky yarn. I now have a new idea of what to do with leftovers. You are so encouraging. Please thank Kassidy also. Many blessings for you and your family.

    Hi Lori,
    This has been my first crochet video of yours that I have watched. Enjoyed it so very much. I am now 64 years old and I’ve been crocheting since I was 17. I had not seen all of your chunky thread color. I would hate to know that I had to choose just one. You did a beautiful job teaching the crochet flower. For an ole pro like me you taught me a new trick in using the plastic needles to tie off the thread. Very neat!! I will definitely be using this trick. Thanks for all that you do. I so enjoy your videos.

    Thank you sewww much for showing us how to make your pretty little crocheted flowers, I was crocheting along with you and can’t wait to make more! Thank you to Cassidy for showing us how to make her awesome keychain/pulls. I have noticed their appearance on your project bags and really love them, so I will be making some for all my zippy bags now as well! Time really does fly by and it’s hard to believe that the little girl that we all love and have watched grow up, is now an amazing, married young woman.
    I love everything you create Lori and have learned so much over the years following you on your blog and Instagram and watching your videos. This giveaway is a dream giveaway for anyone that loves to crochet or wants to learn. Please keep making your videos they are so helpful and such a pleasure to watch.
    Love and happiness to you and yours✨💖✨

    Love your easy to do crochet flowers and the video of the keychain. I work with Seniors as their Program Director and we knit baby hats for our local hospital. Unfortunately I have nobody that crochets and we are do attach to eat hat a crochet embellishment and this is so easy we are all going to give it a whirl and see if we can make our own as we now need help from others and we get more hats done than flowers. As for the keychain I showed them the video so we are now in the process of making one for each resident (328) so they can put their apartment keys and fob on it using our yarn once we get it. Thank you for the easy tutorial as we get older our small motor skills are limited and this is a can do project. Much appreciate you taking the time do video it.

    Thank you Lori for a super video on the wonderful art of CROCHET. The fabric button and Kassidy’s Keychain demos were a lot of fun watching but what I liked the best was learning to make your crochet flowers, Lori. You keep me coming back for more “happy place” learning, while we celebrate your one year anniversary. Thanks again.

    My grandmother taught me how to crochet and knit when I was around 10. I kept up with some knitting but not crochet - I want to relearn- my glamming neighbor/ friend crochets and knits and we both cross stitch and I quilt. Her husband teases that it was love at first sight with us girls and our stitchy stuff when we met 3 years ago lol. This would be great to win so she can reteach me. Can’t wait to try those flowers and do some granny squares. Also really want to make Kassidy’s zipper pulls 😍

    Hi Lori I had no idea that you have a crochet line with yarn and everything. I have to admit that I have always loved your designs but I'm not a quilter. So when you started the cross stitch designs I was extremely excited and now to see that you do crocheting well I couldn't hardy wait for the video to come out on how to make those flowers. Thank you so much for everything you do for us. Your such a wonderful inspiration to us all. 💜💜💜💜💜💜

    I love that you added the flowers and zipper pulls onto your bags. I was so happy that you showed how to make both of them. I did crochet years ago and thought I would like to try them but how could I do that. And then you showed us. Thanks so much. I do like the crochet series. My daughter wants to learn and your videos always have clear instructions.

    Starting crochet this tutorial gave me a nice small project to get the hang of crochet back. The last time was about 35 years ago with grandma having fun togheter during one of our many creative moments together. Great memories. This tutorial gave me a clear hand position and "looping" instruction to get me started.

    I actually learned to crochet in my primary class at church. I made a crocheted edge on a hanky. It has very fine thread and I am amazed that my teacher would have that kind of patience with such a young girl! Both my grandmothers and my mother also crocheted, I have made Afghans for my parents, children, grand children and great grandchildren, I have a featherweight that was my great grandmother’s and I a sure it needs a crocheted flower adornment! I hope I win the giveaway as I cannot afford these beautiful products which are so amazing! You are such an amazingly talented lady, I wish I was your granny! Have a wonderful crocheting day!

I am new to your series but I am hooked. I’m excited to surprise my mom with new exciting accessories. I’ve commented more than once I’m sorry but I just kept thinking about your ideas and kept getting more and more excited. Thank you for these videos.

    Your planner is amazing! I love the button cover tutorial and the keychains. I love to crochet and the flowers are adorable! My grandmother taught me the granny square, and my great aunt taught me the ripple stitch. My mother in law taught me to knit. All these wonderful ladies were right handed and I am left handed, so they were very patient. My first crochet project turned out to work only as a little blanket for a tiny puppy, LOL. You teach us so much, and help me to stay on track, and learn better techniques! Thank you so much!
