I love crocheting!! The only thing I hate about it is how I always start but never finish projects~ 🤣
Oh my gosh I’ve never related to anything more lol 😂
Same!!!!
Sameeew🤣😭😭
Sameee
Same! I always start and then find an unfinished project a few months later and I think; “oh yeahhh I was working on that! 🤔 Next!” And then start a new project again 😂
girl trust me even tho crochet seems like it takes forever it def isn’t as long as knitting. i do both and just to put it in perspective it took me literally redoing a my first crochet project completely 10 times to learn. just don’t quit
I totally agree. I learned to knit before I learned to crochet and I was so surprised at how quick crochet is in comparison to knitting
I only knit and I see people make crochet things so quickly it seems! (Even though it takes a long time to crochet, it’s fast relative to knitting 😂)
@@defenderofjustice7079 How? I'm way faster at knitting, it's taking me soooo long to crochet a simple tank top haha
Anyone coming back to this video and seeing how much of a yarn queen Jenna is now
I started watching Jenna recently because of her home reno videos and have been loving her crochet/knitting projects! I found a bunch of crochet stuff in my basement yesterday, so I'm gonna finally start! It's intimidating getting into new skills, especially something like this where you're, like, materializing fabric out of string, so it's nice to see the process of her first project!
You did so good for your first crochet project! Quick tip- count your stitches every few rows just to make sure you have the same after every row. Have fun making more crochet things!💕
What I always do when I have a lot of stitches, like 50 or above; I place a stitchmarker on every 10th stitch so you only have to count the stitchmarkers! It helps a lot!
@@marakilsdonk8777 OH MY GOODNESS THAT IS GENIUS THANK YOU👩❤️💋👩👩❤️💋👩
Have you finished knitting your cardigan?
Oh my gosh thank you
@@didemece6478 did you confuse them with liv Huffman? Cause I did XD
I LOVE CROCHETING!!!!! I learned to crochet when I was 4 years old. I'm 21 now, so I have been crocheting for over 17 years. It does get easier over time. It's my favorite hobby and has helped me relieve a lot of stress over the years.
AHHHHHH your crafting skills are everything!!
You could crochet a scalloped edge around the bottom to hide any mistakes! Maybe little lace detail or tassels!
that may be a little complicated for a beginner :/
@@socialfailure8604 she figured out how to do straps so I’m sure she could figure out other techniques. And she made a checkered one after this one..
Ooooh tassels would be such a cute and great idea!!
@@vdot666008 I think so too!
@@socialfailure8604 it's actually extremely easy you just do a single crochet into the same stitch 5 times and then a regular stitch afterwards and repeat around the edge
i started knitting a cardigan and this gave me motivation to finish it instead of putting it off 😭💗
you can do it!
@@merce4043 omg thank you
@@nabihahabib5099Did you finish your cardigan??
@@mamaschmeeda no absolutely not😭😭😭 it’s sitting in the back of my closet
I watched a whole lot of crochet tutorial by professionals in youtube but none of them helped me! Jenna's video is the only one that helped me and she's just a beginner woahh!! you are amazing 🤍
you did so good i have been crocheting for 3 yrs and im 12 and i never seen a begunner do such a good job
FINALLY someone who's a real beginner. You might not like the fact that it's wonky looking, but....me being a BEGINNER, loves it :)
Love it! So realistic how crochet happens at times and you owned it!
your videos give of such good vibes (English is my second language so idk if i wrote this correctly)
Your English is perfect! Thank you soooo much ❤️
Maybe this tutorial will finally force me to face my fears and try crocheting😅
It was surprisingly easy my first time! Now I am addicted to it 😂
Yeah do it ! I've started last month and I love it so much. Is definitely a bit hard at the beginning because you need to get accustomed to holding the thread and all but then it's easy breezy lemon squeezy. Just get crappy cheap yarn to begin with so you won't be too sad if you mess up and all your fears will go away !
idk if you know how to knit but it’s surprising easy to do like rectangles and such. idk if it was easier bc i can already knit or not.
@@audrey6952 I don’t know how to knit but it’s definitely in my list to learn! Can you knit and crochet? I’ve heard knitting is a lot harder which is why I’ve always avoided it but I’d love to know how to do both.
Dishcloths are any easy thing to practice to get your tension even 🙂
You are doing great! A little tip for a straight edge is to not skip any loops when you turn your work, and begin on a new row. Also count your stitches so you know if you missed one!
Jenna, it turned out adorable!! Good for you for finishing, and not demanding perfection! Really those are the keys to success in sewing, knitting or crochet. Perfect is good but often takes the joy out of the project.
I love your joy and honesty with life ❤️
Found ur videos while crocheting and can't stop watching em
Your did great for your first project. It gets easier the more you crochet. Your shirt turned out very cute.
i am 15 and i learned crochet when i was 14 and seeing someone do it for the first was a long time ago cuz that was me 1 year ago and its fun to see all the mistake you made and also annoying that you didn't fix it 😅but i love it soooo much i love your vids🥰
Hi Jenna! Fantastic job on your top! Long time crocheter here with a recommendation - start from the bottom of the top and crochet up to avoid the uneven edges ;) love your videos, btw!
I also thought that could help! 😊
your voice is so pleasant to hear, it's comforting
your voice and personality are so comforting
Unrelated to crocheting but you're literally so gorgeous, I love your butterfly earrings and your energy
this is so wild that I have seen so many of your crochet videos and I thought you had been doing this for years!! I just started last week so I hope I get as good as you in 9 months too haha
Didn't look like you are doing crochet first time. Looks very beautiful on you sis. Take care and be safe. You are so talented. Love you sis. 💖❤💖❤💖❤💖❤💖
Hey there! Crocheter of about 2-3 years here (I’ve lost track). Just wanted to say that you did an amazing job for this being your first project! People usually start with just beanies/scarfs, but the fact you started out with a tank top is sick!
If you ever wanted a tip about stitch counting, use a stitch marker! Stitch markers are a life saver when keeping count of your stitches. It also wouldn’t hurt to write down stitch counts/rows when working on a project too. I do it all the time!
Pretty impressive for a first project. Using stitch markers really help keep your rows nice and even. Safety pins work really good for that. I had some cute plastic ones, that unfortunately broke the first time I used them. I like the color yarn you used and the second top really came out good.
I foud you at the Moment and i must say i am really impressed of your Chanel and your great ideas. Second Hand Peaces like the best thing we can do because its vintage, cheap, eco friendly and special. So thank you really much to get us Inspiration about to go second hand shopping. Have a nice day🙃🌱🍀
okay stop it why are you the coolest person ever ??
I started to crochet a month ago and I saw Jenna’s videos , and she crocheted so amazing, and I was freaking out why my stuff I’m making are different that Jennas. Now when I saw that everyone’s first try is not perfect , I feel that not only I’m doing it weird at the beginning 😅❤
I was making my crocheting crop top. We’re watching you do it and you finish before me and I started before you but you did a really good job.
It looks amazing omg!!! Especially for your first time crocheting. The only reason it looks -a littlleee- lopsided is due to your chain foundation. Just make sure all of your chains are even, and you may want to consider using some sort of a stitch marker. It looks really cute!
Giiiiiiiiiirl, my first crochet project was a blanket and I essentially did a giant rectangle and it was soo bad. I didn't watch any tutorials or anything.i just went for it and the edges were so lopsided and wiggly. But then I made another one and it looked soo much better and I put some scalloped edges on it and I was so proud of it. Now I'm making a cardigan
her positivity is inspiring! i love it
definitely gets easier as you go and the more videos you watch!
This is amazing, I started crocheting two weeks ago and I am doing my first top at the moment, but it's taking forever 😅
Your outcome looks beautiful!
Greeting from Germany 😌
That's amazing! I've recently started getting back into crochet and have finally learned how to mostly read patterns. I'm about half way a few projects and have made 2 beanies so far
For the straps, maybe sew an inside, you can especially see with tote bags, over time the traps stretch and possible don’t find your needs. But that was awesome for your first project!!
This is so cute! Your video is amazing and I could listen to you forever while I crochet ❤
It’s been a year since you started and you got soo much better. While you were doing the action of crotchet the way you grabbed your yarn with the hook was odd. I started at this same time as well so it’s cool to be able to see why it took you longer and how we’ve all improved. Just felt like commenting this or my head would explode
Your top looks brilliant, I self taught myself at beginning of first lockdown , I've kept doing it to keep my mind occupied n loving it now, lots of multicoloured hippy retro stuff 😁
omg perfect timing i just started teaching myself crochet 2 days ago! i am still working on my first project, a loose knit shopping bag i think itll be a bit wonky but going well so far lol. cant wait to try this next!
Love this top and your doggy is cutest ever.
Jenna, you did a fantastic job. Well done you.
I love crocheting! It's so relaxing! I normally make crochet plushies for my shop, but I've been wanting to make clothes for a long time. I'm taking this video as my sign to stop procrastinating lol
Hallo from the Netherlands. Love your vlogs!!! And crochet... I learned myself and just love it. Now I love to make sweaters, tops, bags, and lots more. I just finished a horse😁😁
oh my gosh! finally i found a vid where i can understand perfectly!! thank you sooo freaking much❤
craft time with jenna is my new form of therapy ✋
🤗💕 thanks Jenna... love your demos ... happy happy 😃

You are so talented ! Thanks for sharing your skills. I love your videos! Thanks for the inspo!
Omg stoppp u did such a good job for this being ur first time crocheting!!! Im shook. Congrats!!!
Yes Jenna!! You should be so proud of yourself!! it looks amazing!!
Sometime when I fuck up and it comes out wonky ill stich like a border around the whole top. I'll fold it up and hem it with my sewing machine! Honestly you did a really good job. I cried the first time I crocheted looool its harder then it looks. Good work :)
that top is so cute , but i think you should try it out again and now tht u have experience it will turn out better . also to get the whole thing even u should count ur stitches after each row so they would stay the same
You’re my comfort TH-camr Jenna
You give off such great energy
Wow I was looking for a tutorial for a crochet croptop and now you post one! How cool. Greetings from The Netherlands!
Anything near perfect is perfect 🥰 💞
Hi jenna..love your lovely top well done .you can make it look even better buy sc all around your top and straps will give it a tider look and will look so much different...happy crocheting jenna watch lots of TH-cam videos you will get better the more you do ..

Every time she says bam bam turkey and chicken 😂 if you said turkey and jam it would rhyme... just puttin it out there ❤️ Love your vids Jenna!
I love crocheting!
I wish I could crochet but I love knitting on the knit loom! Great job for your first time! You need to take a trip after the virus is over to Nanaimo BC Canada to thrift so you can meet me!
You really encouraged me cuz I started crochet with this video and mine isn't perfect either but I'm loving it.
Ps love you too❤️
heres the thing that i used to do when i was beginer i put a paper clip on the last stitch i know im 8 yr old but i am kinda of a pro noob i just hate working with long crochet projects specially with lots of parts and conn ecting them!
Hi Jenna great video it's cute you did a great job
Count your stiches as you go and it will help you not miss any! But looks great
When BC is 25 degrees and Toronto just had a mini snow storm last week 🥲
Same! I’m north of Toronto, it’s supposed to snow again tomorrow 😭
@@KristenVautour this is madness i changed my snow tires already
Your doggg 🥺😍 turned out so cute you're so talented 💙
You are so sweet! Thank you!
Awesome job Jenna!! What can't you do!!??
You are such a neat person. I love your chanel
its a hard time believing this is your first time crocheting
I think these tops turned out great, I love the thicker straps. I'm tempted to make one, but not cropped as I'm abit too old for cropped tops lol.
you should make a cropped one as well! even if you just wear it at home, you may find out you enjoy them. plus, its a good excuse to crochet more haha
please do more crochet videos! even just crochet with me cause i’m at a really bad place in my life right and this video made me smile. i love your vibes and this was so cozy to watch!! so glad i found your channel and i’m definitely subscribing!!
Oh yes thank you! I just started to learn how to crochet and I'm super motivated to do tops😍
Jenna I love u really inspire me do this types of things love you so very much❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Perfect timing! I just finished my first crochet project which was a bandana. Your top came out super cute.
Thank you for the great tutorial! I recently learned how to crotchet and this is the first project I made, I love it 🥰
Every time I tried to add this to my watch later it wouldn’t let me so I’m just watching now 😂😂
i spent so much on warn and needles and get going but i NEVER finish 😭 i don’t know how you do it
You can do it!!!!
been so obsessed with your videos lately!!!! 🥺🤍
Awh thank you!!!!!
Hey, just to say, you use your right hand to move the crochet hook, not your fingers on your left hand! You point the crochet hook left, under the yarn, up, and pull the hook through!
U seem so fun to be around. ☀️😁
Please do more crocheting videos!!!! They are amazing
Hi Turkey 🦃 and Chicken 🐓
DONT worry about those nails of yours you make some wonderful things with those busy fingers !
Ani 🤵🏼♀️💋♥️
You did an amazing job and I can’t believe you’ve never crocheted before!
So proud of you!
Thank you soooo much ❤️
You did an amazing job i loved the result. And actually that wavy finish on bottom looks good. I think you have also done second crochet top in green too.
I am waiting for that tutorial ❤
if you want it to look even and not crooked, i think you should block it. blocking means you soak it in water, ring it out, and lay it flat to dry on a towel in the correct shape. that will help with unevenness. also, knitting uses needles and crochet uses hooks. check out ravelry for a lot of patterns.
You can fix the lower edge with some lace trim that would look cute
Great job 👍.... that would look great with tassels- you've got lots of wool.
And if people want to practice try making dishcloths - they are quick and good for getting your tension even 😘 🇬🇧
I would wear a top like this over a dress because it reminds me of the vintage bodice🥰🥰🥰
I just realized you made this video one day after my birthday
What was the burrito though lol? and where’s it from ? it looks so good
