You channel is one of my favorites for crochet because you explain everything so well and clear. I got pretty excited when I got the notification, I never understood those chart! You're a great teacher.
Really enjoyed this helpful video. I have always been completely overwhelmed by chart patterns, thank you for explaining it so clearly. Look forward to more chit chats.xx
I’ve been crocheting for years without the chart patterns. Now I know what all the symbols mean. I can see that the chart would be easier than reading and rereading a written pattern. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! I found your channel very recently, and saw your behind the scenes video first. I liked it very much, and this video is very helpful.
Loved this first chitchat Laura it's lovely to see you in your homely surroundings it's like having a friend round 😊this was a very useful and helpful guide that I can and will go back to again and again , can't wait for the next one 😊Amanda xx💕
This is great information, thank you so much for making this. Charts make a lil bit more sense in my mind. I am sure with a few more of these type videos it will be much more clearer (hint, hint, wink wink) I would love to see more of these maybe even to follow along with. Thank you for taking the time for this video as I did see how much goes into making video's.
This is so helpful thank you!! Would love to hear your thoughts on designing patterns, and whatever you want to talk about honestly you're a joy to listen to
Thank you Laura for this tutorial. I have always avoided any charts since it all looks like something from space to me! I think I might be able to give one a try now.
Thank you for demystifying how to read crochet patterns. I had no idea how to make sense of them.Thank you so much for helping me to explore more crochet patterns and techniques. It would be difficult to find time to take a class after work or a weekend. Tutorials yours help you to explore new ideas for a beginner.
Thanks for your time and teaching experience in the field of Japanese style and I have to tell you that I also bought a book about the wonderful things that Japanese style of crocheting and also knitting. Many thanks for your information, please keep us posted on your knew patterns. I wish you could teach how to crochet a doll . God bless.
I really enjoyed this podcast as I am desperately trying to understand patterns and charts. After today I am going to understand the chart more - thank you so much :)
Great explanation.👍 I've been enjoying charts more & more over the past year or so.😃 Despite years of reading written crochet patterns I'm now preferring the charts that seems simpler.😉 Blessings from South Australia.💕🐨
BRILLIANT!! Tutorial! Thank you 🙏🏻 thank you 🙏🏻 THANK YOU!!! For taking the time to do this for us. I so needed this! I love all crochet books and am quiet addicting to buying them!! A few of them have charts so I’ve been scared to give them a go lol. But now...... I’m gonna be flying thanx to you. Please please keep up the good work. I subscribed a year or so ago and have learnt so much from you. X best of wishes to you. Stay well......Stay safe.......&Stay happy. 🌈🙏🏻
Very insightful as I had no clue about charts before seeing your video. Would love to hear more about starting a crafts business. Love your work and thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you that was really helpful. I am still learning to read patterns especially as a diagram rather than the written pattern. I have a lot of very old patterns that were my nans and have been struggling to understand them. I would love to be able to create my own designs but have no idea where to start. Would love to hear how you do your designs. Love you channel too.
It is funny that when I started to learn how to crochet, I found that reading/looking at crochet charts & diagram was easier to understand rather than reading a written step by step instructions. Maybe I am visual, but I love fact that I can 'see' the end result/shape of the project in diagrams and charts.
I was enjoying your new channel, I'm sad you were having difficulties! Ty for the graphs and explanation. To date I've not read a pattern, I'm getting all my info from video. Ty again:)
Thank you! This is so helpful, could you now make something following along a pattern? I know it must sound ridiculous to some experienced crocheters, but I think it would REALLY help me apply everything you just taught us. Thank You again!
Thank you so much. I recently learned that I have Japanese genes by my mother. Since I already crochet I think it would be fun to learn these Japanese signs.
I love your channel. I hope to be able to understand reading patterns. Was never good at it. Your a great teacher and I've learned a lot from you. Kept them coming.... Next I've got to figure out how to crochet a frog blanket.
Would love to learn how to design patterns, want to open my own shop. I am always modding patterns to my liking so I figure I might as well learn how to make my own.
Thank you it was very helpful but I still find the charts become extremely difficult to follow when there are over lays in the pattern. I can never figure what stitch comes next. Would love it if you would give a tutorial on working with many running colors in a pattern to create a picture (child’s woodland scene) etc. How we swing the yarn to carry it etc
I have been crocheting since I was 14 and am now 63. I’ve always preferred using charts/patterns over instructions, as they contain standard symbols that can be easily interpreted no matter in what country the pattern was produced.
Thank you for this helpful explanation, but I still dislike the charts. I purchased a book recently of amigurumi patterns and was very disappointed/livid actually, as there were only charts and written patterns with the weird symbols. However, I understand the benefit of the charts as a universal language for those who like them, no matter what written language you understand.
Hello. Im jpns. yea, jpns crocheters/knittrers need charts first. Crochet and knitting got popular in 1960-1970 in jpn. Jpns don't speak English so that ppl make those symbols and chart. And that's why jpns can't speak English yet. LOL. If you master reading symbols and charts, find lots of crochet pattern for free. Than k you Laura. xx
Hi I went to your website to purchase c2c cushion box but it said Thank you for stopping by. My store is now closed until later in the year. Help thank you
Hi i bought amigurumi seweets its a japanese book but till now i cant understand it there is 2 arrows coming from the chart and it gose for another chart 😂 its drive me crazy 😂
You channel is one of my favorites for crochet because you explain everything so well and clear. I got pretty excited when I got the notification, I never understood those chart! You're a great teacher.
I'm very grateful for this. I have looked at the patterns with frustration and bewilderment so many times!!!
This, as well as YOU, are awesome!!!

So helpful Laura! My eyes have always just glazed over when looking at charts, but I think they are starting to make sense! Thank you!

I also bought a book and i was upset that i couldnt figure it out too many arrows from chart to chat u dont even know what to do
Thanks bless you
Could you explain how to put multiple charts together on one pattern?
