So to keep going, after single DC single DC double DC, would I then do three single DC then a double DC, or one single then two doubles? I hope that made sense!
Thank you, I actually started these videos for that exact reason. I wanted to teach crochet as if we were sat together with a nice cup of tea, taking our time ☺️
I have a feeling a lot of people are going to get homemade gifts this year or at least stocking stuffers. Thank you for written instructions that is very much appreciated.
I’ve been trying to learn crochet as a new hobby for the past few weeks. This is definitely the best video I have come across in that time. Very well explained and demonstrated. Thank you for not speeding up past the “basics”. My confidence with crochet grew so much after this tutorial!
I'm a totally beginner and I'm so happy I'm able to finish my first crochet project! Thanks a bunch! Watching your video and completing this circle coaster has definitely boosted my confidence.
Wonderful video. The up close view of your work was excellent to watch for learning. I've been crocheting since I was 12 years old (my grandmother taught me the basics) and am 74 now and enjoyed watching your work take shape. Thank you.
I spent an hour trying to understand other videos teaching me how to make this and I kept getting to steps that made no sense- until this one. I made my circle in a few hours and was able to understand everything after a few watches. THANK YOU! You're the only video I watched that took it slow enough and made it clear enough for me someone who has never crochet before to make this! So thank you very much for this!!!
That’s awesome to hear. Circular crochet can be really challenging at the beginning of your crochet journey: I remember being so frustrated and making things that looked like little egg cups! I always keep my own learning in mind and aim to make videos that have everything little detail that will help. I’m so glad you found this useful x

this was such a wonderful video to crochet along with!! my first magic circle/round crochet, and you made it so simple and delightful. i just paused a few times to catch up, clarify, or count, but finished up in just under an hour and thoroughly enjoyed your "company" along the way. thank you so much for your help and your humor 🥰
OMG I WAS CRYING 😭, bec ever single crochet video I went on was soo HARD .. UNTIL i found out ur channel , it’s soo easy to watch and understanding and by using ur technique my crochet work turns out soo good .. THANK YOU SO MUCH ❤❤
Thank you SO much for this!! I’ve tried making circles in the past and could never do it until now! Your a great teacher and I love how you just talk about life and what’s been happening while you crochet! It makes the experience even more enjoyable🥰 I’m definitely subscribing ❤️
Hi there! After not understanding many different tutorials on this very same project- I got it the first time after watching yours. I am very pleased with how it came out, and I want to thankyou for this very helpful video. I noticed your last upload was 11 months ago, and I'm sad to see that! Your videos are great!
I love how you chatted with me as if we were just enjoying our afternoon with tea and our own little projects together😊 I loved being invited into your day, you are a lovely soul! Can't wait to learn new things from you♡
Can I just say that not only did you teach me how to make amazing coasters, you also taught me how to make a magic circle for the first time. I give you a round of applause for that 👏👏👏
I am a beginner at crocheting and started 2 days ago. She is an Excellent teacher!! Love love how she explains everything so slowly, patiently, steadily, and methodically. Her teaching style is perfect. I subscribed immediately. Thank you so much! I’ll be binging your videos! So excited to start filling my home with beautiful crochet creations! 💕💕💕
this is an amazing tutorial!! your magic ring one was also very helpful! i appreciate how you explain the math aspect and that you don’t speed through the stitches. i’ll definitely watch more of your posts!
i just used this tutorial to make coasters for my car cup holders as my second project ever and it was great. i only used 2 rounds instead of 4 and they fit perfect
The way you explained the circle increase as a pie helped me so much. I do great with symbolism so I’ll definitely be able to visualize that for the coasters I’m making!
I did my first ever crochet piece with your video. Had to fix it twice because I got my double crochet wrong, but it turned out perfect in the end. Thanks so much for this tutorial!!! I enjoyed listening to your random talks too ☺
My first crochet project was an oversized cowl and I only just finished it after 60 something hours. I had left over yarn, and this video popped up on my feed and good lord am I pleased that it did! Under 30 minutes and I had a little coaster done. This was very gratifying. Thank you 🙏😊 Loved the chat about cat 🥰
i’ve struggled w flat circles in other videos and found this and what a life saver! this was so clear and so well explained i finally got it! thank you so much for the tutorial!!
I’m still a newbie crocheter, and I have got to say your method for a magic circle is by far THE BEST I have seen! It looks complicated, but it just clicked with me somehow! Thanks!!! My coaster looks so cute!❤
I've trawled through quite a few circle coaster tutorials today looking for one that resonated with me and have to say that yours is the best by a mile - easy to follow, not rushed, verbal instructions and good visuals - thank you 😍
I loved this tutorial! I only started crochet recently, and this was the first time I understood the magic circle or double crochet. Thank you so much!
I just want to say this video really helped me. I’m making a purse that looks like a blueberry pie and I’m a beginner so using this pattern and scaling it up has been a game changer. Also I just really like listening to you talk, it’s very relaxing. Thank you!!😊
I have always failed to make a perfect circle or even make a magic ring. I went through so many videos and nothing helped. Your video is such a delight. It is very easy to follow and I just did my first perfect circle. Thank you so much ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I couldn't figure out a magic circle for the life of me until I found your video. Thank you so much! I've also become a huge fan of circle everything because of it. Surprising, considering I never imagined moving past a single crochet stitch. I appreciate you more than you know! ❤
Hi! It's me again! I'd really love to show what I made by learning how to make a perfect flat circle but I can't figure out how to send you a picture lol. Anyway, I'm very much into vintage hot pads and I'm redoing my dining room in a country theme. All of my crocheted items that I've hung on my wall are little dresses. But with your help, I crocheted a perfectly flat, round clock! Thank you so much!!!
That’s awesome to hear, vintage hot pad are so fabulous aren’t they, I’d love to see your designs. You can reach me on Instagram @crochetandtea or email at crochetandtea@outlook.com
❤ this is one of the most safe pattern I’ve used for a circle. It’s fail safe and it gives an end result of a very stable, even circle. The trick with the double crochet at beginning (or end of the row) is brilliant. Thank you from Scotland ❤
I certainly made something of a circular shape haha! I will Get there with practice. Thank you so much for this video and for going through it at such a lovely pace. Your voice was so cheerful too!
It's always great when it turns out looking like it should. I've spent many years squishing the odd extra stitch in just to make it feel a bit more in shape. I think that's the beauty of crochet over knitting, you can always hides a rogue freeform bit and no-one will ever know! #NoRulesCrochet is definitely one of my many crafting mantras hehe!
im a beginner crocheter and this is the first video that actually helped me complete a project (that looks good too)! thank you for helping me learn, i feel more confident now!!
Had to subscribe in the middle of crocheting! I do agree about the polished video what-nots and you got me there-your authenticity. This may sound weird as a teenager but this has been the warmest and comfiest I’ve ever felt while following a crochet tutorial! I also love how we could just sit down and it’s as if we’re actually chatting. There’s no background music as well which tends to give me pressure more than relaxation so the rambles are a blessing to me, actually. Thank you ever so much, too! You’re amazing, you know that?
Thank you so much for this video!! I'm a new beginner and have gone through so many tutorials on youtube (and have said WTF so many times not understanding what I'm supposed to do), this video and the short one demonstrating how to do a magic ring make the most sense, and I'm actually able to crochet a coaster in just one try!!!
just like you I have 5 cats so it's unusual to get a bit of peace when I have yarn or wire in the room as they assume it's playtime! love these videos and love learning something new x
Thank you from kansas, USA , I have learned a lot from this session as I crocheted with you. I had to pause the video at each round because I am a beginner crocheter at 63 years old.
I just want to say thank you. I watched other videos on how to croche the magic ring, but when watching yours, it finally made sense. I really appriciate the no rule croche. 🙌
This was amazing! My mom wanted to make one ever since I got into cricketing, and this was so helpful!! It was great to see her smile 😊 (And it was because fo you!!) Edit: Sorry for the typos!!
Excellent video. It's been years since I have crocheted, moving over to knitting, and from this video I can pick it up right away. I love the rhythm of crochet!
i cannot thank you enough I've been trying so hard to make a circle maybe like a month of work and they call kept making a bowl i finally got it to work with your methods ❤
i love how u actually teach what each stitch does and why we do it instead of just showing us how to make the product. this helps so much in my knowledge in crochet! thank u
I love this tutorial so much!!!! I made a coaster in just over an hour. I added a little border from a tutorial I found by acreativebeing, and I can't wait to use it for my cup of coffee in the morning! -- I also LOVED the cat commentary, I went and looked at your Insta just to see Kitty up close! :D -- oh, and thank you for explaining the "why" of the increases -- I've been knitting for ages, so it's much more intuitive to me how knit stitches work, but I'm still learning in crochet!
Thanks to your videos I've been able to pick up a hook again after many years. The magic circle is extremely tricky and took me a couple of hours practising to get the hang of it and complete a coaster. It will be the first of many I think.
THANK YOU!!! I have repeatedly tried to learn this for years and give up every time. You took the time to show and explain and I was able to complete this! I am actually crying while I make this comment wishing that I could show my stepmom who taught me to crochet but she passed in 2021. I cannot thank you enough! I thought that I'd never figure this out without her. I will be checking out all of your videos. Much love from Gasport NY USA❤ GO Bills
followed this to complete my first ever crocheting project using a magic circle! 🤯 i'm still learning so it's not very pretty, but it's fine for my desk 😂 i feel a lot more confident in crocheting after this, so thank you for the great tutorial 😊
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I had also checked out how to make a magic circle and your tutorial was the only one I understood lol I’ve made 3 of these gorgeous coasters now 😊 thanks again!
Hello, Miss Chrissy. I just wanted to thank you for being so calm and patient. I finally was able to do the magic ring, and I am now doing a project for a friend's baby's baptism, and I wanted to do an elephant rug, but none of the other people were able to explain as thoroughly as you. I automatically subscribed to you, and I am looking forward to seeing and doing more projects based on your videos. Thank you once again!
I love this tutorial! It made my coaster look so good, and the random chit chat in between was very relaxing, and entertaining to hear! I will def be recommending this to my friends! Thank you so much!
THANK YOU SO MUCH ... I have finally found thru you how to easily do the magic circle AND 10-20-30 rows plus ... to then start my own mish mash of stitches for HATS. I was having great difficulty just getting the crown started after a few years away from crochet. Having done 700+ to donate I needed a break, and just recently am starting up again. God bless. I'll be checking out some of your other stitches soon. Health and Happiness in this New Year of 2024!!
omg!! i just discovered your channel and i love it so much. your talking and stuff is so relaxing i feel like i’m crocheting with a friend 😭 in these lonely times that means so much to me. PLS KEEP POSTING VIDEOS! i’ll support as much as i can ❤️ have a great week from texas!
That’s so amazing to hear thank you. I’m looking at doing some different style ones where I talk through my current projects, sort of a cup of tea and chit chat style one! Definitely the sort of thing you could crochet along to!
Made a couple of coasters in Jute fibre yarn for my son a while ago. He asked for some more and as I'm not an experienced crocheter I needed instructions again and happened to find this one. Your tutorial is very clear and easy-to-follow. Thank you for sharing 🤗🌻🦋
Hi! Thank you so much for this video. When I make a round, the gaps have always made me crazy! Now I am wondering if you have ever made a round and then turned it into a square? I'm sure that I'm not saying it right. But it would be to make several squares to make an afgan.
Tresa Matheny yes you can indeed create a ‘granny square’ with a circle in the centre. I’lol look at popping a video tutorial up for that soon if you would like ☺️
Just found this and it was really easy, had to put you on -0.5 speed bc it was a bit quick as i've never done that before but your instructions were so easy to follow and the explanation with the pizza helped me understand really quickly and i will most likely never forget it which will help me replicate the results in future 😊 Thank you so much!
I really enjoyed this video and I’ve just browsed your page a little and found a ton of projects I’d like to try some day! Thank you for sharing 💗 my cats attack my yarn as well it does provide a little extra challenge :)
Yay to another cat mamma! 🙌 great to hear you’ve found plenty of projects. I’ve got so many planned out ready to record, just looking at of my autumnal themed stuff ☺️
I’m very very new to crochet and yours has been the first video I can follow along. My tension and stitches need a lot of work but I don’t feel like giving up. Thank you.
As a beginner, I appreciated how clear each step was. So easy to follow, especially since this is my second crochet pattern ever. Thank you for not speeding up the process. :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I started crochet a little over one month ago and I've been wanting to do this tutorial ever since then, but I was having trouble with the magic circle for a while. Today, I finally was able to crochet this coaster and it looks perfect! I look forward to trying your other coaster tutorials!!!
Hi, I’m sorry that you had challenges with the audio. I’ve not had any feedback on this to date, may I suggest checking you have the volume on both the TH-cam app and your device. I know before I’ve had the same issue and it turned out my volume on TH-cam needed turning up.
@@CrochetandTea Hi just wanted to feedback that I've had the same issue with audio - both TH-cam and PC audio turned all the way up and the audio was extremely quiet, maybe a problem on TH-cam's side if it sounds OK to you?
This was brilliant. I've been so put off on crochet thanks to my self-criticism and short attention span, but this quick and well instructed project helped me actually complete work I'm somewhat proud of. Thank you very much! ❤️
I really wanted to make some coasters for my car and though I've been knitting for two years I was having the hardest time learning to knit circles. I decided to pick up a crochet hook I had laying around and give that a go instead. I've never crocheted a day in my life but thanks to you and this video I now have a beautiful little car coaster! Thank you so much this tutorial was truly wonderful and I loved the vibe it had with all of the casual talking. :)
I’ve never learned how to do a coaster like I kept on searching videos but they didn’t work now I have a green coaster that I’ve made for my nana, thank you very much x❤
after 5 tries, i finally made a circle! i just started crochet a week ago and i found the magic circle quite difficult but i finally did it because of your video, thank you !
Amazing tutorial. Thank you for taking the time to teach so many people how to crochet a coaster. I'm a beginner and found this tutorial easy to follow.
This is the most complete flat circle crochet tutorial I've watched and I've probably watched more than 10 at this point. A lot of those tutorials stop at either the magic circle or 1 loop of the circle. As a complete beginner, that's quite annoying since I'm stuck questioning where to go from there. Thank you very much for this video.
it's crazy how many different ways there are to hold your hook, work, and yarn. I suppose it's all about finding the most comfortable way. Hope the video helped :-)
Thank you!!❤ I just made my first coaster. The magic circle was a challenge but I finally got it 5 times later and the end product was good. I want to make one with two colors next.
Thank you so much! This is the first time I've managed to actually complete a crochet project, albeit small! Your video is so clear and easy to follow (and I love the casual vibe too). I can't wait to watch more of your videos! I am very proud of my little tea coaster!
I haven’t done crochet in years, but you were so clear about each step that I had no problem picking it up again to make one of these coasters. Thank you so much for creating this great tutorial! :-)
Thank you for the pie piece analogy!!!! I had never heard that before, and now I don't have to wonder if I'm adding the correct amount of stitches in each round!
OMG after about 15 tutorials with poor accents you are the BEES KNEES. cant believe I finally found somone I can understand. Being an ex pom in Australia you are bliss love your banter.THANK YOU SO MUCH
So to keep going, after single DC single DC double DC, would I then do three single DC then a double DC, or one single then two doubles? I hope that made sense!
Following, I had the same question! Did you find an answer?
Update, I believe I figured it out, it should be a single DC for the next 3 stitches then (the 4th stitch) two DC. Hope that made sense :)
For every new round you would increase the number of single DC between the increase which is 2 DC into the same stitch.
@@CrochetandTea can anyone say which needle is best for weaving
#RAADALKURDI 👈👍😊🌿
Can we just appreciate the fast that she doesn’t cut or speed it up?
Thank you, I actually started these videos for that exact reason. I wanted to teach crochet as if we were sat together with a nice cup of tea, taking our time ☺️
And the proof is here
😊
Omg yess this is the best vid I have seen so far
Oh my goodness yes! As a new crochet-er I love that she takes her time and talks through everything. 😊
I have a feeling a lot of people are going to get homemade gifts this year or at least stocking stuffers. Thank you for written instructions that is very much appreciated.
Thank you, that’s great to hear. They’re super addictive, my house is running out of room for coasters 😂😂😂
I have a feeling or breaking this sticks in half...:(
I’ve been trying to learn crochet as a new hobby for the past few weeks. This is definitely the best video I have come across in that time. Very well explained and demonstrated. Thank you for not speeding up past the “basics”.
My confidence with crochet grew so much after this tutorial!
hello. i too started several weeks ago. this seems hard for me to do when it looks so easy. ha i can't get it as right as it should be.
Thank you. It’s comments like these that fuel my love for sharing crochet 🧶
Love her accent and she makes every video like you’re sitting down with an old friend. And she’s easy to follow!!! 👍🏾
Thank you 🙏
Yes, very easy to understand great explanations!
I'm a totally beginner and I'm so happy I'm able to finish my first crochet project! Thanks a bunch! Watching your video and completing this circle coaster has definitely boosted my confidence.
Awesome. I'm so pleased :-)

Problem with thumbs up, YT saves it automatically. Not all videos I like do I want to save which makes the list too long to find anything.

Thanks, I struggled so much when I first started it. Once you're fingers get comfortable with it the muscle memory will kick in :-)
i cannot thank you enough I've been trying so hard to make a circle maybe like a month of work and they call kept making a bowl i finally got it to work with your methods ❤
That's amazing, so pleased you were able to make one :-)
thanks, this was a great tutorial. now i have a coaster for my sewing desk!😌
Oh lovely, what colour did you make it in?
Crochet and Tea multicolour yarn- pink, purple and cream! 😊☕️
i love how u actually teach what each stitch does and why we do it instead of just showing us how to make the product. this helps so much in my knowledge in crochet! thank u
Thanks, I’m so pleased you found it helpful ☺️
I’m a beginner and found this so helpful and easy to follow! Really excited to try more of your tutorials! 💛
That’s great, I look forward to seeing your creations. You can tag me on Insta @crochetandtea ☺️
I am a beginner and I finally made it!! Tqsm for explaining it soo clearly, it was really helpful ❤
I love this tutorial so much!!!! I made a coaster in just over an hour. I added a little border from a tutorial I found by acreativebeing, and I can't wait to use it for my cup of coffee in the morning! -- I also LOVED the cat commentary, I went and looked at your Insta just to see Kitty up close! :D -- oh, and thank you for explaining the "why" of the increases -- I've been knitting for ages, so it's much more intuitive to me how knit stitches work, but I'm still learning in crochet!
Thank you for your lovely comment! That’s so sweet of you to look up the kitties. You can follow them @poppet.moomin on insta
Thanks to your videos I've been able to pick up a hook again after many years. The magic circle is extremely tricky and took me a couple of hours practising to get the hang of it and complete a coaster. It will be the first of many I think.
So pleased you persevered with the magic circle, it's such a game changer once you've mastered it :-)
This helped alot since I'm a beginner. It took a lot of tries to get the final product and it was worth it, thank you!!
That’s great to hear, I bet it looks great!
THANK YOU!!! I have repeatedly tried to learn this for years and give up every time. You took the time to show and explain and I was able to complete this! I am actually crying while I make this comment wishing that I could show my stepmom who taught me to crochet but she passed in 2021. I cannot thank you enough! I thought that I'd never figure this out without her. I will be checking out all of your videos. Much love from Gasport NY USA❤
GO Bills
That's so wonderful to hear, thank you so much for your kind words. I'm sure your stepmom would be so proud of you and your accomplishment. :-) xoxo
followed this to complete my first ever crocheting project using a magic circle! 🤯 i'm still learning so it's not very pretty, but it's fine for my desk 😂 i feel a lot more confident in crocheting after this, so thank you for the great tutorial 😊
That’s amazing to hear! I hope you continue your crochet journey ☺️
Thank u so much
Thank you , am from Trinidad & Tobago🇹🇹 , your video helped me a lot ,i eventually got it ,am excited , am now learning to crotchet from you tube.
Same but I don’t live there no more tho
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I had also checked out how to make a magic circle and your tutorial was the only one I understood lol I’ve made 3 of these gorgeous coasters now 😊 thanks again!
Thank you, that’s great to hear. Feel free to tag me in your pics on Insta and I’ll be sure to share :)
Thank you!! Finally a tutorial that’s seamless and doesn’t have weird holes when I slip stitch!
Amazing, so pleased you liked it :-)
Kids are my biggest distraction, followed by husband & the dog comes in last - being the best behaved. 😂
😂
Hello, Miss Chrissy.
I just wanted to thank you for being so calm and patient. I finally was able to do the magic ring, and I am now doing a project for a friend's baby's baptism, and I wanted to do an elephant rug, but none of the other people were able to explain as thoroughly as you.
I automatically subscribed to you, and I am looking forward to seeing and doing more projects based on your videos.
Thank you once again!
So pleased I was able to help, and awesome job on conquering the illusive magic ring, yay! :-)
thank you so much and I love how you make me feel like i’m crocheting with a friend (:
How lovely, I feel like I’m crocheted with others too when I make the videos 🥰
I love this tutorial! It made my coaster look so good, and the random chit chat in between was very relaxing, and entertaining to hear! I will def be recommending this to my friends! Thank you so much!
After finishing the second ring, it started to curl up,I’m not sure what I did wrong 😅 but this is a great tutorial
Same. It might be the yarn we are using or we are pulling/holding the yarn too tightly
@@blueismylove3128 mine does too! It goes like a little hat I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong x
@@caitlinstephenson3205 I've restarted so many times and what I've done is add more than she says to before closing the gap and that's worked for me.
It happens to me to but wat I did was not tighten the yarn to tight and I made sure to not skip any stitches by accident
Mine does that sometimes if my stitches are a little tight, try sizing up your hook.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ... I have finally found thru you how to easily do the magic circle AND 10-20-30 rows plus ... to then start my own mish mash of stitches for HATS. I was having great difficulty just getting the crown started after a few years away from crochet. Having done 700+ to donate I needed a break, and just recently am starting up again. God bless. I'll be checking out some of your other stitches soon. Health and Happiness in this New Year of 2024!!
Oh my! I really want to try this, just learned how to do Double Crochet and the Waffle Stitch, so I think coasters are my new project 😄
Amazing, so great to hear. I’m busy making lots to post for Christmas 🎄 gifts!
I love the way you explain each n every stitch thank you...
This video has such a cozy vibe. I love it, it's like I'm in the room with you. My coaster turned out great, thank you very much!!
omg!! i just discovered your channel and i love it so much. your talking and stuff is so relaxing i feel like i’m crocheting with a friend 😭 in these lonely times that means so much to me. PLS KEEP POSTING VIDEOS! i’ll support as much as i can ❤️ have a great week from texas!
That’s so amazing to hear thank you. I’m looking at doing some different style ones where I talk through my current projects, sort of a cup of tea and chit chat style one! Definitely the sort of thing you could crochet along to!
Made a couple of coasters in Jute fibre yarn for my son a while ago. He asked for some more and as I'm not an experienced crocheter I needed instructions again and happened to find this one. Your tutorial is very clear and easy-to-follow. Thank you for sharing 🤗🌻🦋
That’s wonderful to hear. Many thanks 🙏
Hi! Thank you so much for this video. When I make a round, the gaps have always made me crazy! Now I am wondering if you have ever made a round and then turned it into a square? I'm sure that I'm not saying it right. But it would be to make several squares to make an afgan.
Tresa Matheny yes you can indeed create a ‘granny square’ with a circle in the centre. I’lol look at popping a video tutorial up for that soon if you would like ☺️
@@CrochetandTea Yes ma'am! I would love to see your tutorial on that 🙂 Thanks so much! Have a great day!
Just found this and it was really easy, had to put you on -0.5 speed bc it was a bit quick as i've never done that before but your instructions were so easy to follow and the explanation with the pizza helped me understand really quickly and i will most likely never forget it which will help me replicate the results in future 😊 Thank you so much!
So pleased you liked it, I find using visual learning methods for crochet is really beneficial. I still imagine my pizza or pie slices to date!
Thank you so much for your video! Your technique is flawless! 🌺
Thank you 🙏 I’m glad you liked it
Thank you very much for teaching me about NOT counting chain stitches...I'm new to crochet and every bit of knowledge adds to enjoyment ...thank you
Thank you, so pleased you found this useful xoxo
I really enjoyed this video and I’ve just browsed your page a little and found a ton of projects I’d like to try some day! Thank you for sharing 💗 my cats attack my yarn as well it does provide a little extra challenge :)
Yay to another cat mamma! 🙌 great to hear you’ve found plenty of projects. I’ve got so many planned out ready to record, just looking at of my autumnal themed stuff ☺️
I’m very very new to crochet and yours has been the first video I can follow along. My tension and stitches need a lot of work but I don’t feel like giving up. Thank you.
That’s awesome! So pleased to hear the video helped :)
My cat is happily chewing and tangling himself in my yarn while I am making a bowl instead of a circle haha.
They do love to be part of the action, bless him! He thinks he’s helping haha!
As a beginner, I appreciated how clear each step was. So easy to follow, especially since this is my second crochet pattern ever. Thank you for not speeding up the process. :)
You are so welcome!
Why is mine not flat 😭
th-cam.com/video/CZGlpY4sQXc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=oodfnr1eQR6W021x
Probably because you have to do 2 chain stitches out before every layer
(This happened to me too when it started to look like a bowl)
same here,mine too
Maybe because you skipped a stitch(s) or just add another row(that worked for me
She gives a tip in the description.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I started crochet a little over one month ago and I've been wanting to do this tutorial ever since then, but I was having trouble with the magic circle for a while. Today, I finally was able to crochet this coaster and it looks perfect! I look forward to trying your other coaster tutorials!!!
That's awesome, so pleased :-)
Good instruction but I could barely hear you with my sound up on 100%.
Hi, I’m sorry that you had challenges with the audio. I’ve not had any feedback on this to date, may I suggest checking you have the volume on both the TH-cam app and your device. I know before I’ve had the same issue and it turned out my volume on TH-cam needed turning up.
@@CrochetandTea Hi just wanted to feedback that I've had the same issue with audio - both TH-cam and PC audio turned all the way up and the audio was extremely quiet, maybe a problem on TH-cam's side if it sounds OK to you?
This was brilliant. I've been so put off on crochet thanks to my self-criticism and short attention span, but this quick and well instructed project helped me actually complete work I'm somewhat proud of. Thank you very much! ❤️
I'm so pleased it helped, I bet it felt amazing to have created something :-)
I really wanted to make some coasters for my car and though I've been knitting for two years I was having the hardest time learning to knit circles. I decided to pick up a crochet hook I had laying around and give that a go instead. I've never crocheted a day in my life but thanks to you and this video I now have a beautiful little car coaster! Thank you so much this tutorial was truly wonderful and I loved the vibe it had with all of the casual talking. :)
That's great, a car coaster how fabulous. I do hope you continue with your crochet journey :-)
If you are a beginner I don’t recommend this video 😅
Why not? This is a basic stitch. I do not believe you know what you're talking about.
Adjust the playback speed to make it slower and easier to follow :) That’s what helped me
I’ve never learned how to do a coaster like I kept on searching videos but they didn’t work now I have a green coaster that I’ve made for my nana, thank you very much x❤
This is not an easy tutorial
it’s easy but it’s just not for beginners maybe it’s easy for pro’s
@@user-n7m9 oh Ty
@@gutsyqueen np i’m a beginner also
after 5 tries, i finally made a circle! i just started crochet a week ago and i found the magic circle quite difficult but i finally did it because of your video, thank you !
That's amazing. Well done for persevering :-)
Amazing tutorial. Thank you for taking the time to teach so many people how to crochet a coaster. I'm a beginner and found this tutorial easy to follow.
You are so welcome!
This is the most complete flat circle crochet tutorial I've watched and I've probably watched more than 10 at this point. A lot of those tutorials stop at either the magic circle or 1 loop of the circle. As a complete beginner, that's quite annoying since I'm stuck questioning where to go from there. Thank you very much for this video.
That's so great to hear, thank you. That's exactly why I created this video, I wanted to help show every element in the process :-)
i am a newbie and have watched loads of videos and I have never seen anyone yarn over like you
it's crazy how many different ways there are to hold your hook, work, and yarn. I suppose it's all about finding the most comfortable way. Hope the video helped :-)
Thank you!!❤ I just made my first coaster. The magic circle was a challenge but I finally got it 5 times later and the end product was good. I want to make one with two colors next.
Amazing, great job on persevering with the magic circle. I remember it being super tricky my first time :-)
Thank you so much! This is the first time I've managed to actually complete a crochet project, albeit small! Your video is so clear and easy to follow (and I love the casual vibe too). I can't wait to watch more of your videos!
I am very proud of my little tea coaster!
This video was so helpful. I tried following a basic coaster pattern, but being new to crochet, I was counting incorrectly. It is really appreciated!
Glad it was helpful!
I haven’t done crochet in years, but you were so clear about each step that I had no problem picking it up again to make one of these coasters. Thank you so much for creating this great tutorial! :-)
Thank you, so glad I could help ;-)
Thank you for the pie piece analogy!!!! I had never heard that before, and now I don't have to wonder if I'm adding the correct amount of stitches in each round!
Thanks, so pleased you liked it. Visualising the stitches in this way is also a nice intro into grid patterns :)
This is the only tutorial that has actually helped me manage a magic circle🙏🏻❤️
Yay, awesome :-)
OMG after about 15 tutorials with poor accents you are the BEES KNEES. cant believe I finally found somone I can understand. Being an ex pom in Australia you are bliss love your banter.THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you, you’ve made my day 🥰
