Sooo excited to share this with all of you! Can't wait to see all your jumbo turtles
Love you don't give up
@@user-xe8ib4zq9n thanks so much❤️
Am I allowed to use this pattern for myself, and to then sell it? (Not a store, a small craft fair) edit: it's fine if it's a no :)
@@dooooodlesz you can never sell someone else’s pattern.
Maui ask if you have a video on how you price your creations? ❤️🇨🇦
I made a jumbo turtle for my niece. It was massive! I used a 20mm hook. And I couldn't tell you how many skiens of yarn I used. It literally takes up her whole twin sized bed. I'll tag you on Instagram. 😊
Ohh my gosh that sounds amazing! Your niece is probably obsessed, that’s so amazing!! I cant wait to see it :)
@@crochetbygennaen español , puedes hacer paso a paso por favor saludos de Perú
What yarn did you use and how much because I would love to make one😊
Do you have an approximation for the no. of yarn skeins? Thank you.
that is awesome!
As crocheters we get it. Even while I crochet I have an internal conversation much like you have vocalized. I love it as it helps me to learn this craft. I usually error on getting too much yarn as I hate cutting it close. Never hurts as I may find another use. Thank you for sharing.
to help your muscles i recommend using compression gloves or sleeves. if those are uncomfortable then kt tape or any other brand of kinesiology tape works well with relieving stress and aiding mobility. i crochet a lot at times and found it to be very helpful to use either when crocheting
Aw thanks for sharing! I’ll definitely look into getting some ❤️
Pls do this I did not know about this and devolved tendinitis
OMG GIRL, i crochet and i am TOTALLY WITH YOU ON THE HAND EXERCISES!!
I loved with every piece done, you kept getting more and more excited and shocked at the size 😂🥰
Awww thank you so much!!❤️ haha truly shocked by the end result😂
This is so amazing! I have started ataggering my increases in order to minimize that boxiness 😊 for example: 3 sc, inc around
2 sc, inc, 4 sc inc x6, 2 sc and so on ❤
Yesss!! Someone also mentioned, I'll have to come out with an updated version ❤️ thank you!!
@crochetbygenna you did such an amazing job on this video even though it wasn't meant to be a tutorial! I made a Christmas one yesterday following your video and I am absolutely obsessed!! 🫶
I am not great at making plushies, I've been trying to make some toys for my nephew and I just can't seem to finish them. The fact that you made this massive turtle is amazing! Its so big and soft looking and it looks incredible! So cozy! Its so pretty and you did a really good job with it!
Omg aww thank you so much!! And you got this!! Mini projects are super nice to do since they are quicker to make ❤️
@@crochetbygenna I totally agree with u!! I'm started by making ur octopi and it was rly easy! and they turned out really good!!!! I rly love ur patterns i NEED to make the Sunflower Turtle! my sister made a sunflower market bag for my friend and a bookmark to match, and I want to make the SFT for her as well!!!😘also im a new subscriber & love ur channel!!❤
Love your regular size Turtle. You are so brave to tackle this BIG Turtles..
aww thank you!! lol it was a lot 😂❤️
Love all the work you create but also share with us! Hair dresser here. When my wrists (knees, lower back and neck) ache, sometimes the cream “Voltaren” helps. I’m in Canada so may be a different name. The active ingredient in it is “Diclofenac”. It helps immensely… with proper breaks and stretching!
I’ve also been crocheting quite a bit. I’ve found larger handles on my hooks also helps a lot! Cheers! ❤️❤️❤️
Aww thanks so much for the tips, definitely will try some of them! ❤️
Omg I love this tutorial, I used normal yarn because I didn't have ang plush yarn and it still turned out pretty big😊
Congratulations on finishing that enormous turtle. Well done.
Aww thanks so much❤️
On your pattern, it only shows 84 single crochets. How could you also do a video to show how you change colors from the turtle shell from green to white.
The plushies just keep getting bigger!!!(Also very honored by the brief guest star appearance kitty 😻)
I love hearing your process and thinking it thru. And Voice-over Jenna is too fun.
Awww thank you so much hehe🥰❤️
I made this with free yarn I got and was just starting crocheting literally my 2nd project, I ran out of yarn so I ended up using Red yarn for head and tail and pink for the rest as well as mixed grey pink white yarn for shell, I wanted to redo it in pink to match the rest and finally today I decided to get it over with, when I first made it, I messed up counting, rows etc and it took nearly 3-3:30 hours just for head and tail, I finished both head and tail in just a shy of 2 hours today and never been more proud, now it’s waiting until I get home to put it all together
I am only nine years old and I crocheted this big guy and sold it to a friend and got 50bucks I am saving my money to get a 3D printer and I just got to my goal so THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤑😍🤩🥳🐥🐣
This pattern was perfect! I made this to sell. Yeah, not happening. I LOVE this! I use it to sit up and watch tv. It’s a great pillow. It is beyond CUTE and your pattern is absolute perfection! Thank you sooooo much for this. It is the only thing I have ever kept for myself. On top of that, I have enough yarn left over to make a second and it only took me two days.
Aww omg!! I love this so much, thank you!!
Thank u for such a great tutorial!! Just as a recommendation: to avoid the cone-shape for spheres (the head and shell), start with a MR of 8sc, then 8 inc, then 1 sc 1 inc x 6, and then u continue as normal with 5sc +1 inc x 6.... game changer!!
Hi I try but how you don't end up with a big gap doing 8inc, then 1sc 1inc x 6?
Thank you for your help
Sorry! It's
MR 8sc
inc x 8sc
(1sc 1inc) x 8
skip Round 4 and jump to Round 5 and continue the same: (3sc, Inc) x 6
This turned out so cute I ended up making a sunflower shell thanks for the tutorial x
Genna I love ur vids and am trying to find a way to show you my first crochet project since you inspired me to start
Aww! That makes me so happy to hear 💕 You can DM me!!
Thank you so much! My best friends birthday is coming up, and he has a pet turtle! I’m gonna make this for him :)
Aww I love that!! Yay :) of course!❤️
love this!!! just started crocheting couple of days ago and you make it so easy to follow along thank you sm for this tutorial
I’m going to cryyy when you release that big panda pattern 😭😭 it’s so cute!! It’s so hard to find a panda pattern I like!
Awww thank you!! Its in the works hehehe ❤
This is amazing! I can’t wait to make one of my own…. I might make it bigger yet, and it can be a body pillow to sleep with! ❤❤❤
Thank you❤️ and hahah I love that!! Yess, it’d make a great pillow🥰
Hello. Well I got the pattern. So excited, I started the front Finn’s I’m using a size 10 mm hook. But. I did put. Extra Rows on cuz it didn’t look big like use. I found the written pattern was so easy to follow thank you.
I’m so excited to make one ahhh thank you for sharing this 😭😍 you are seriously the best!
Awww of course!! You’re so sweet❤️
absolutely love how huge it is. thanks for sharing the pattern can't wait to make this. :)
Aww of course!! So excited for you❤️
I LOVED this video you are like my idol! Your a amazing crocheter and I appreciate every time you post ! I always love to look at your plushies and purchase from your Etsy! Love you! ❤️💗
Omg awww!! Thank you so much, you’re too sweet!❤️
The turtle looks so awesome!!! I love all of your crochet plushies, and love watching your TH-cam channel!!! I have found that jumbo yarn tends to unravel when joining skeins, but I use the magic knot, and it works wonders. Ilysm❤
Awww thank you soo much!! And I'll have to try the magic knot, thanks!
i’m about to purchase all the yarn i need and can’t wait to make it!! 🩷❤️🩷❤️
Omgg Im so excited for you😍
I can't believe how huge that turtle is! I hope it helps you build confidence in crocheting huge animals!
Thank you so much!! Yes for sure!!❤️
I absolutely love this pattern. I have been doing mine in BERNAT Velvet Plus yarn and they come out so good but i have made mine like half the size because I don't want to use too much yarn. lol
Awesome, Beautiful, Great Job ❤ i used to have that pain when doing crochet n so i place pillows under both my arms/elbows to give my arms support while i crochet n i also sit on soft cushioned sofa n i have never had that again again. It also helped with neck pain. Try it Jenna n ur arms won't fall out...lol 😂 Love ur videos, so funny n inspiring 😊❤😊
Oh wow thank you for the tip! will deff be trying that! and aww of course, thanks so much ❤️
You are such a sweetheart but you seem very smart… Always have client pay for shipping or included the shipping in the final price you give clients. Also always buy at least two extra of what you think you are going to use . If you don’t use them that’s part of your profit. Keep up the good work I see you going far in life….😊❤❤❤
Please can you do a tutorial on how you make your stitches so uniform???? Plz (love your vids btw)
Aww thank you so much! Yes! I want to do that for a future vid 💕
Omg Genna! You had me cackling so hard when your whole head disappeared into the turtle head!!! 😂😂😂 Absolutely loved your comment "I don't even wanna know what that looks like on camera".😂😂😂😂
My favorite part😂❤
I just found your channel recently. I love your vibe and how much you love what you make! Also that Tom Nook always chilling in the background, waiting to get paid, probably 🤣
Hahahaha omg yes!! Tom is waiting for the paycheck😂😂❤️ thank you so much!
I have now finished crocheting the turtle.
I crocheted the shell on 90 SC to make it a little bigger and just love it! (only 1SC between each chain more)
I didn't understand how to sew the parts together. and found a video from Rose and Lily crochet.
She has a tutorial where she crochet a turtle using the same technique and also shows how to sew it.
(Hope it's ok that I share this Tip.😅)
ahhhh omg!! must be a huge turtle hehe love ❤️
Thank you for referring too, Rose and lily. I was a little frustrated that this said tutorial, and didn’t learn anything. Just briefly looking at the other site, I think now I can at least get started and hopefully figure out the rest. Thank you!
O.M.G 😭 I just looked at your Etsy shop today lmaoo and I was like darn the turtle isn’t free but YAYYYY I can’t wait to make it :>
C'est incroyable, merci infiniment pour ce tutoriel je vais en fait une pour m'en servir comme un pouf!!

You're welcome. You're actually sweet, sorry that this is the only comment I commented but because my comments were turned off so my friend told me how to turn on the comments another time I am sooooo sorry can you forgive me please
You always make my day♥️♥️♥️💖💖💖❤️
@@Thisgurlplayz Aww no worries at all, thank you so much!! You're super sweet
You are so cute, love your excitement. I was watching this to see how you start this, and do INC, and decreases, and attach the all the body parts. I’m sorry I didn’t learn anything except how big my turtle should be.😊😊 a video that says tutorial should be a teaching video. I already bought your pattern but now I need a little help. I was wondering if you could add in your video, in slower motion, how to start this, how you add on the body parts? It would really help people like me who are a visual learner’s . Keep up your excitement.😊😊😊
aww hello! thanks so much!! check out my strawberry turtle tutorial, it should be pretty similar to this jumbo turtle pattern and hopefully that helps!!
This is very beginner friendly!! After i finish my project im working on im gonna make this turtle!!! :D
Aww yay!! so excited for you❤️
Do you think you might do a Sunflower turtle tutorial? I love it!!
This was so easy to follow!!! Thank you so much, Genna!! 😊😊
Ohhhhh my goodness!! That is the cutest jumbo turtle 💕 I’m so excited to make it just purchased the pattern yay!! Thank you! Happy Crochet 🧶💕
Omggg what’s the pattern?? I’m literally so broke n cant understand the vids instructions 🥲🥲
I really love I really love this light.Can you make more turtle tutorials❤❤❤❤
Oh my goodness i love him! Girl, you're making me want a huge turtle 😂. Also, a little tip. If you stagger your increases you won't get that hexagon thing going on 🙂 ❤️ yarn chicken 😂 now that's what I'm going to call it when it's project vs skein 😂
Hahahah thank you!! And yesss I will 100% stagger the increases next time, thanks!🥰❤️
How do you stagger increases
I can’t wait to make one I’m a beginner so this will be my first big project wish me luck :)
Oh my gosh, Im so excited for you!! My first ever amigurimi project was also a turtle❤️
I just finished one and I LOVE it
You could always vacuum seal to ship. I know it's not the presentation you would like, but everything will go to form once they open the plastic. I do this when I travel.
Aww thank you! Honestly a very good idea :)
Love your channel. Very inspiring. 💕💕💕💕 the jumbo turtle is si cute.
Awww thank you so much! So glad you enjoy❤️
i just learned how to make the reg size turtle and i can't wait to make this one!😍😍💯
I actually make two of this for myself for my birthday but i hate of the shell is pointy and doesn't look like yours😢 but i still love it.
I wish you had a video tutorial on this human sized turtle 😢that would be literally my dream ❤
I love this kind of videos❤
You are so talented🎉
I'm going to try this tutorial with worsted weight yarn and see how big it turns ❤
It won’t turn out as big unless u adjust the pattern to fit the yarn and hook you are using just a tip incase you wanted one the same size as hers otherwise if you use the same pattern it will be much smaller
Thank you for sharing!! I wanna make one!
You should!! Of course❤️❤️
Love all the turtles ❤. There's an invisible seam for granny square on U-tube. Enjoy.
Aww thank you! ♥️
Thank you genna, you inspired me to design my own mini tortoise!!! It may be the opposite of ur jumbo turtle ,but it inspired me anyway lol 🤣
