    Why do I love your tutorials and patterns?....let me count the reasons. First off, they are absolutely beautiful! I honestly haven't seen a tutorial of yours I didn't like. Secondly, you use yarns that are easily available to everyone. Next, you don't waste time demonstrating how to make stitches (hence making things very boring and frustrating) Your tutorials are "easy" but not "beginner". There is a difference, and you have that down pat! Thank you! Experienced crocheters like easy patterns, but don't need all the extra. I can just listen to your tutorials and follow along. I have made several of your shawl patterns and love them all!

    Thank you for this tutorial. The only way I can learn to crochet as I can't decipher written instructions. I am using your technique to crochet a prayer shawl.

  • @k.s.k.7721
    @k.s.k.7721 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    These are my favorite tutorials. Not too fast or slow in explanation, a great view of the stitches and how/where they are placed, enough repetition of the rows and pattern; and the wonderful options/variations that are possible. Thanks for these!

    @NoBodyKnows514 ปีที่แล้ว

    It reminds me of something I tried in your Starburst shawl. I was following the tutorial and then decided to try a few peek holes and it kinda came out similar to this. I really love your work and I've tried following other tutorials, but your voice is the most soothing for my adhd and hypersensitivity to sound so I always come back to your videos 💕 thank you!

    @deborahb.7222 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hope you're proud of yourself! I donate 9/10ths of what I make. A friend gave me yarn that she didn't like (neither do I), but they are 3 colors not full equal skeins. I had started a shawl in a plain old granny stitch & got a fair way through. I saw this video & started it with another yarn. The other shawl just looked boring, so I am now in the process of taking it out! LOL. I really want to maybe try one of the variations you talked about. Thanks, as always, for your great tutorials.

    Thank you for your excellent tutorials. Your work is so beautiful and looks so complicated, but you give just the right amount of instruction. I don’t have to sit through you explaining how to make a slip knot, but you make every stitch right along with me, so I can tell if my work is matching yours. Plus, your extra tips are invaluable!

    Thanks for the quickly shared tutorial of this shawl. I love it and funny thing is I have and use the same exact H, blue hook you are using. I think it's a Clover which is easier on my old, arthritic hands, so I'm ready to go. Have a great weekend and I'm going to attempt this today since I've been on a brief hold on crocheting and it's almost like a drug habit. Crocheting is my drug, lol. Have a great weekend. Big hugs to you.
