    I'm rewatching the crochet/knitting videos, waiting patiently for the fantastic house to be finished... And I can't wait to see the next crochet videos IN the fantastic house...

    “People who have been making granny squares for 20 years”
    Me, who learned to crochet at age 5, who’s first project was a granny square, turning 21 in a few months and realizing I’m 🤏🏻 this close to being considered “granny square expert”

    Beautiful work you have inspired me to start making granny squares and see where it takes me! Also I literally said in my head before you said it out loud “like a pharmacist” 😂😂💕

    I just subscribed to your channel! You’re so much fun and very talented. I’m 75 and taught myself to crochet on u tube during the pandemic. I think you’re the cutest! Keep bringing your fun and very informative videos! I love them!💜💜💜

    I must say I was not expecting something made from granny squares to look so nice. You did a great job. And I love it with the skirt.

    Doesn't matter how long it takes you. What matters is that it comes out square, consistent tension, real corners on all four corners, and hopefully all of them are the same size!
    I think somewhere in storage is a little booklet of "shrink vests" that are made with two granny squares, each large enough to cover your chest (not completely). Then plain crochet sections for the sides, shoulder straps, bottom band.

    Granny squares are awesome! I continue to go back to them after 50 plus years of crocheting! Relax and enjoy! There’s no hurry, it’s not a race. It’s not unusual to feel iffy until you finish. I’m amazed, even now, what I create! It’s a great feeling.

  • @bgummeson
    @bgummeson 2 ปีที่แล้ว +43

    I *love* how this turned out. The royal blue for the sleeve gusset and tops of sleeves was perfect! Btw I follow the channel that you learned JAYGo from. She is an excellent instructor, and I watched her JAYGo video when I was using it in a project I haven’t finished yet. Time to get back to it!

    Honestly I have literally only just found your videos by chance and you are my new fave on here! I’ve been crocheting for 12 years but I was originally watching all your sewing videos (because you’ve inspired me to get my machine fixed and make some clothes) then I realised you crochet aswell!! I’ve binged watched your videos for the last 4 days lol loving your content ❤️❤️❤️so so refreshing

    I would looove a pattern for this where the neckline etc. would be described in depth. It is so pretty!

  • @holosapiens

    I'm not a very consistent knitter, crocheter or sewer, but I love it all. You are very inspiring. Love the way you just jump right in, and get creative. The sweater is awesome. Makes me want to make one. Thanks for showing us how you do it... the good, and the mistakes. It helps to know we're not alone in our mess ups. Lol

  • @laurelgirard8475
    @laurelgirard8475 ปีที่แล้ว

    I can crochet a granny in 5 mins, but I’ve been crocheting for about 50 years. In fact, my first project was a black and multiple color granny blanket for my Mom. That blanket lasted almost 50 years! I rarely crochet fast anymore. I usually just crochet for myself so there’s rarely any hurry. Granny squares haven’t gone out style. I love to learn new variations that come along.

  • @anne-marie9842
    @anne-marie9842 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I wonder if changing the way you hold the hook to a pencil grip would speed up your crochet. Then hold the yarn over your left forefinger. Your movements would be much smaller then, resulting in more speed. Beautiful result, Jenna!

    Very creative design 👌 l Iike the way you shaped the sleeves and the neckline.
    Please crochet an extra row around the waist edge. This will take the strain off the individual granny square joins & save you a lot of mending later on.

    Mrs. Phipps, what happens is when you have been crocheting for 40 plus years, like i have, your hands just take off on their own.I'm 73, I've been crocheting since I was in 4th grade. My guess is about 11-12? If I'm following a pattern (like the sleeves of a cardigan) I'm slower because I'm a stickler for being exact, but it's like the programming is in your hands. I had a very elaborate bedspread square in fine thread. I had made an entire bedspread with it and then lost the pattern. One day, I just picked up thread and hook and started the square... my hands knew the pattern, exactly. I even remembered how to join them correctly. I felt like I wasn't even thinking of the pattern. That is where the speed comes from. If I am making a pattern stitch ( I mean something like popcorns or fans) I love, and have done before, my speed picks up. I am amazed to see how popular the granny square is becoming. My mom used to make bedspreads of them.. I used to wear vests of them at one of my first jobs, a saleswoman at a fancy department store in 1972-74! I've never had the nerve just to play with patterns like you do, I'm a pattern collector and have always been so. I have books and magazines from the very early 70s! Oh, say hi to Benson. He's a cutie.
    PS. The only thing that slows me down is when the arthritis gets bad.
