See this recent video of what 5 crochet tips are the most important ones for me! th-cam.com/video/tbWfp7ZgS7s/w-d-xo.html
Thank you I’m 13 and I’ve been crocheting for 2 years and I’m absolutely in love
That's great to hear you have started to crochet young😊
Really at your age that's so nice I hope that you are still doing it ❤
This is sooo sweet, keep it up like that... you can do amazing things that can also be very useful and in trend.
Keep it up. It will help you through tough times in life.
Good for you! Keep going!
I've been crocheting for over 55 years & learned some great tips through your video. Thanks!!!!
That's great to hear! 😊
I was just about to post the same thing.... only i've been crocheting for 50 years.
How old are you that you are crocheting for 55 did start really young
@@prachiverma2605 I am over 60. My mother taught me when I was about 5 or 6. I made nothing but chain stitches for a while, but that gave me practice on my tension. When I got to school and learned to read, she taught me how to read a pattern. That opened up a whole new world for me.
@@Pluviophile218 oh I am 13 now and have been crocheting for 2 years now
Thanks. Loved how slowly you went and the magnification was great to see just what you were doing. Excellent tutorial!
Tuula, you’re videos are fabulous in every wat. I’ve been crocheting a long time and I learn something new from you each time.👏👏👏
Thank you, lovely to hear! 💜💗
I’m so glad I stumbled upon your channel! I’ve been crocheting for over 40 years and you taught me several things in just this video. Now if only I can remember them! 😂❤
Wonderful, glad to hear! Yes, there is always new to learn, I'm finding that still and I have crocheted for over 50 years.
I especially like the tip on joining new yarn.
Great to hear, thank you!
Thanks for the tips! I’d like to add my favorite for absent-minded multitaskers - Always make note of the pattern and hook/needles you are working with near your project. Need I say more? ☹️
That's true, definitely an important tip to add,thank you!
I always forget what size hook I was using! 😢
During a big move long ago , I lost the hook I was using on my first afghan. So I picked up the size hook called for in the pattern - WRONG! I learned the HARD way to note the hook size I use on every pattern. So I guess it was a good thing? I love chainless foundations and use them whenever the first row doesn't use mixed or skipped stitches.
You know you're addicted to crochet when you watch 3 seasons of a TV show and have no idea what the characters look like !!!
Only saw this now, TH-cam had sent this comment to spam!
Very true 😆
🤣🤣🤣 So true
Excellent to have the tips all in one place. I shared with myself on FB. Others who read my posts will enjoy, too. Thank you, Tuula.
Lovely, and thanks for sharing!!
Thank you so much! I wanted to cry, you were so helpful, because I've always simply wanted someone to give me clear tips like you did. I'm a huge fan already!
Thank you, lovely to hear they are helpful, that's the reason to make the videos ❤
Wow just wow. I have been crocheting for over 50 years and you have taught me a few things today.
That's great for hear! 💗
All very good tips. But the best of all is the foundation single and double crochet. I have tried for 2 years to understand how to do this, and now you have helped me see it clearly! THANK YOU so much!❤️
Thank you, so glad to hear the video is useful to you 😊 Enjoy all your crochet!
Thank you so much!! All of these tips were incredibly helpful, especially the chainless start and filling in the space of the last double crochet in the row to create clean edges! Thanks again!
Great to hear they were useful, that one in particular!
Oh my goodness -- these tips are JUST what I needed !! Thank you for helping me to "level up" my crocheting skills!
Glad it was helpful!
I've been crocheting for awhile now but it's always nice to learn new ways to do things this was a interesting video and it taught me different ways to do things
Thank you, great to hear!
You are a great teacher I have seen some of these tutorials but you make them look so easy. I will be trying some of them. The crochet without the chain (chainless foundation) is going to be the one I will be trying first. Thank you so much.
Wonderful!
Straight edges in dc, awesome tip, i just love all your tips
Great, thank you!
The chain one is genius. I constantly tangle and twist my chains 🤩
Great to hear that was useful to you!
Awesome tutorial! Thanks so much! Especially number 5! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve twisted the chain! What a great tip! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Glad it was useful! Happy crocheting!
I literally could not get get my chain to not twist until I learned this tip from another of her videos!! What a game changer!!🤯
Thanks a million for sharing these tips. When I first learnt to crochet from videos on TH-cam two years ago, the lady didn't show all these tips, I began with an advanced pattern. So joining yarn I did it my way. Today April 15, 2020 I've been blest after watching your video. MISTAKES NEVER TO MAKE. You are truly a blessing to a 70 year old. Thanks for sharing and caring. Hugs from France. 🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍💕💕💕💐💐💐
Thank you! I'm happy to hear that you learned new things on the video! I used to live 5 years in France in the 80s 😊 Greetings from Finland!
@@TuulaMaaria
Oh lovely to have this super talented Lady from Finland. I subscribed. Are you lucky to see THE NORTHERN LIGHTS Gods creations? Wow 5 years in France! I wish I could live in Finland ONE DAY of my life. Too risky and old to travel. Hugs 💐💐💐

Thank you mam
Thanks for the tips! I have been crocheting for years and didn't know half of the things you went over.
Thank you, happy to hear 😊
#7 straight edges in DC has helped so much!!! Thanks!
Thank you, that's great!
Learn something new every day no matter how long one has crocheted! Love the flat edges at row ends. Thank you!
Great, yes, always something more to learn! I have crocheted for over 50 years and continue to learn new things 😊
Thank you for these tips i really like the one for joining a new piece of yarn when you add more yarn.
Definitely a video to keep! You are such a good teacher with some excellent tips and videos that make stitches really clear to understand and follow. I like the last one and I really like the joining the yarn technique which I'll be using now! Thank you for your time in making the videos for us.
Thank you so much, I'm glad the video was useful! Happy crocheting!
You’re one if not the best instructor I’ve found to date. I’m picking up my hooks again after years of inactivity. My tension needs a good bit of work as I’m a tight crocheter. I love all of your straightforward understandable tips. My favorite because of need is keeping my rows straight! Thank you.
Thank you, so glad to hear some of the tips were useful and that you find my way of presenting clear 😊 Have a great time crocheting!
Thank you so much. The straight edge with double crochet is such a new way for me I just love it.
I used to dislike crocheting flat, and only did round. This tip gives me confidence to do flat work. I subscribed 💕
Great to hear, and thank you for subscribing! 😊
I am just a beginner ... this video helps me ..thank you mam❤❤
Very useful, thank you ! My preferred one is No. 2 how to join a new yarn, very clever, no knot yet sturdy.
Thank you! Great to hear that one was useful to you 😊
I am glad to have found this. Crocheting almost 50 years and have had problem with my edges ever since. I went many years without doing crochet. Thanks to TH-cam and the many awesome videos I now enjoy it again. Will be referring back to this one in future. Thanks for sharing.
Great to hear, thank you! Lovely that you have got back to crocheting again! 😊
Wow!!! Thanks a lot! I've being crocheting for 30 years but always learn something New with your videos!
Wonderful! Yes, there is always something new, I keep learning too!
Tuula, you are very pleasant to listen to! Thank you for the great tips! 😄
Thank you, that is great to hear! 💚
Thank you for such easy to follow tips! Your instructions are clear and precise, and the filming quality and style makes it easy to see what you're doing. New subscriber, thanks again!
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
Havebeen crocheting for 57 years and i learned something with every tip! Your teaching style is concise and so helpful! Saved the video to re-watch and practice. I am left handed and to watch me crocheting is so awkward! Never too old to learn new tips, stitches and concepts. Thank you for your help!!!
Thank you, I'm so glad there were useful things for you 😊 You have been crocheting for longer than I have, "only" 52 years!
Wonderful crotchet tips ,I think I like them
As someone who has just started learning how to crochet, your channel is a godsend. Thank you so much for all the useful tips!
I'm so glad to hear! Enjoy all the crochet you are learning! 🙂
Very important Crochet tips; Thank you! Nice camera work, too!
Personally, I have my Crochet Hooks listed in my Contacts under Crochet, in my smart phone.
Likewise, I have my Allergies listed in my Contacts under A, & * it, as then it shows up on my short contact list before the A-Z names.
Listed my current medications under M & * it.
USE: ICE to list 1 or more names & phone numbers for: "In Case of Emergency".
In the USA, Emergency Responders are supposed to have been trained to look there, @ the very beginning of your Cobtacts list on your cellular phone, for whom to call to notify that person of your Emergency.
Great idea to list in contacts! I keep lists like that in my Google drive that is easy to access on all devices.
We use the ICE too but not much anymore because nobody would keep their phone screen unlocked so no one can access my contact list.
These were great! Thank you!
Glad to hear you liked them!
Oh! So glad I found you! A lot of good info and I found out what I've been doing wrong all these years! LOL!! 71 yrs old and still learning!
Great to hear! And yes, no matter what age, there is more to learn! I have been crocheting for over 50 years and still learn new all the time! 😊
Great tips. A good refresher for me, who hasn't crocheted go a while. Thanks.
I now also have a video with 7 more crochet tips, check that out as well! th-cam.com/video/AlYTEHI5BHM/w-d-xo.html
Sure
It's terrific too
Yes I agree both video's are great, so cleaver... 🍪pocket England

Hello nice to meet you I support you now
Im 14 and learning i made a scarf and a mini scarf for my comfort stuffy
That's lovely, enjoy all your crochet! ❤
Great tips! I especially loved the standing stitch. I've been knitting and crocheting for many years, but have never heard of that before. Thank you for showing me something new!
Wonderful, happy to hear you found something new!
I’ve been crocheting for years. Thank you so much for these tips. Thanks for taking the time to make a tutorial. I will follow you from now on. Anything to make things easier.
Thank you! True, anything to make things easier, and faster 😊
Useful video 👍

With your joining yarn method, does that bulk up the stitches unevenly if you're using up scraps or changing colors frequently?
@@jennasorscia9044 It depends on how frequently and also on what weight the yarns are. If you change yarns all the time, it will make either bulky or hard spots regardless of how you finish off the ends. This doesn't behave differently in that sense.
I will now be keeping my edges straight. Thank you for sharing these tips with us.
Thank you for such useful tips......I had been doing crochet since 45 years but I never knew these finishing tips......thank you.....😍🙏
That's great! Yes, there is always more to learn 🙂
another way to do your tip #9, I use a bobby pin to secure the last stitch, it is very sturdy and very hard to lose that stitch
Yes, great, that is a good way too!
To be honest, I find myself untangling yarns more than the actual crocheting.
That can happen! depends a lot on the yarn too, some tangle very badly, especially acrylic!
@@TuulaMaaria My projects are mostly stuffed animals, so my yarn collection mostly consists of arcylic yarns, because I find their color to be more bright and they are also quite cheap. I'm currently trying to organize my yarns, hopefully it will help.
You put a smile on my face. Thank you.
Thank you Tuula, all the tips were unknown to me and so very valuable to know now, I really appreciate your generous sharing!
Thank you, that's great that they were all new! Enjoy using them in future projects!😊
Congratulations! You have been nominated for the Wippy Chick Viewer’s Award for best tutorial channel! I have just watched some of your videos and I can see why you were nominated!
Oh lovely, that's interesting! Need to check the different ones that have been nominated!
Thank you very much for your wonderful help. You’re never too old to learn new things. Again, thanks.
You are very welcome! Definitely never too old to learn something new 😊
I just started crocheting again, and I'm so excited for these tips! I actually used to dec dc that way back in my early days before I knew the "proper" way, so it's interesting to see how I figured it out even in my "ignorance" lol. Thank you for this video!
That's lovely! Yes, sometimes one way of doing something gets considered the only "right" way even though there may be others that work better!
Loved all the tips especially the listing of hooks on the phone and the straight edges tips for both sides of a project. Thank you.
Thank you, great to know those were useful 😊
You helped with a lot double crochet at the end of the row, major help. Starting a new yarn and much more beginning row all of it.
That'great, happy to hear that those were useful!
You make it look so easy. I love watching your tips. 💕
I'm so happy I found your videos. You're a wonderful educator.
Thank you, great to hear! 😊
Thank you Tuula!!! Your most excellent tip for keeping edges straight in double crochet is my favorite
That's great, I remember how glad I was to learn that quite some time ago!
So many great tips!!
You are so good at explaining. Thank you!
oh man where was this video a few months ago when I started my latest project!! That chainless first row would have saved me so my time! Great job explaining it! Learned a few new tips that I will have to use on my next project!
Great to hear, yes, then you can use that tip fro your next project!
OMG love the double crochet beginning and end to the row!
Great to hear you found one that is useful!
Tuula, you are a great teacher - thanks for all your helpful crochet tips!
Thank you, lovely to hear! Have a great time crocheting 😊
Thank you, Ms. Tuula. I appreciate you speak in a moderate speed so it's easy to understand. Great tips. I'm a beginner.
Thank you! Actually I wish I had known some of these tips myself when I was starting crochet instead of years and years later 😊
Since I already watched your video on keeping straight edges I'd have to say the most helpful tip for me was the invisible decrease. I saved this video for future reference. Thank you!
Glad to hear there was a useful tip there 😊
Great tips! Thank you so much!
Thank for some great tips, been crocheting for abt 50 yrs from a child and learned so much just watching your video. Guess it’s true, we’re never too old to learn. Thanks again.
Wonderful, definitely can always learn more at any time of life!
All the tips were precious. Bless you for sharing your knowledge and skills.
Thank you, glad to hear that they were useful! 😊
You are a great teacher,I'm looking forward to trying it out
Great tips. Some of them i didn't know and never seen anywhere before. Very genius. Thank you!
Glad to hear!
Every tip was very good.Simply excellent!!!
Thank you. I love the joining of new yarn. Definitely gonna do that. And love the double crochet at then to fill in that awful gap. And I new a few already but had forgotten about them. So thank you. All great tips.
Thank you! Yes, it's sometimes good to watch some tips because it can bring back things we have forgotten and could be handy 😊
Useful is keeping edges straight in dc..thank you for all these great tips.

Going to have to keep coming back to this. The straight ebds is the most useful to me. Been struggling with that the most.

Thank you so much! These tips really helped with several dilemas I have had. You're just great!
So glad they are helpful, thank you for your comment! ❤

The double crochet decrease was very helpful. I’ve always done it similar to a cluster stitch and started the double crochet in each stitch then finished but I like this much better!!
Great! Yes, I used to do it the way you describe for many many years as well!
WoW...Thanks for sharing this.
Thank you for the useful tips. Will love crocheting more 😊
Great to hear!
