Do you have a mitten tutorial?
@@barbaraweber3084 I do but it is one of my earlier tutorials so may not be very good. Here is the link if you want to check it out ruclips.net/video/eQNyD97cgQk/видео.html
@luckyplatypus oooo, thanks, but not what I was looking for....seems difficult to find mitten tutorials out here in you tube land. I can sorta find a lot of rushed ones but I would like a quality pair of mittens worth the time, effort and yarn to give as presents. I guess I'll keep looking....
@barbaraweber3084 what kind of mittens are you looking for? Gloves or mittens?
Im going to try this
@@michaelmoore3360 Awesome!!! Enjoy and happy crocheting 🧶💕
Just finished mine and I love it in this single digit Winter Vortex here in Central Kentucky. Great tutorial!
@@ThatYarneyZebraStuff absolutely brilliant💜 and thank you. Would love to see a photo. You can send me one via Messenger @luckyplatypus or email luckyplatypus71@gmail.com
Pleas demonstrate on yourself hiw to put it on thank you
@@susanhamidi209 I have not got one made ATM but when I do I will make a short to demonstrate how to put on.
Doing a standard single crochet at the beginning and end of each row adds stability and a clean edge
If you wanted the cowl a little but wider, would the final product still look good?
Beautiful 🥰
@@kathleengolding7823 thank you ❤️
This looks really fun
Just so pretty and practical. Thank you for a great tutorial.
OMG!!! You rock!! I so appreciate this! Perfect. ❤❤❤
@@lindaarchinal9008 You are very welcome 💕
That was a good video. Thank you for the tips!
@@tinawilliams6810 ahhh...thank you💕
What are the measurements of this poncho.? Love it 😍
@@mariadavis548 it is free size. If you would like to change length work up the chain to the size you like. To change width do less rows for smaller or more rows for bigger. Hope that helps
First time here. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Frog it Melissa don't waste the other one and the blended one is fab😊 have a great new year, I ❤ your channel tutorials thanks from your mate in New Zealand.
@@teemaaka288 ahhh....thank you 💕
Stallion has always been nicer than the marvel. Interesting they moved it to the Semco brand from the 4 seasons brand.
Hopefully you're not kept waiting this long these days! My packages have been taking about 4 weeks on average. I was noticing that you said you only needed to spend $75 to get free shipping back then and now it's $99, bit of a jump!? I had been thinking recently when I added another order for some extra things I wanted that I wished it could be less, so I wish it still was lower like back here, just for the times when you're only doing a "top up shop"! :) From the first order from this lot do you remember what you were paying back then for the Winter Glow? I was curious what kind of sale price was what you considered good? I don't remember seeing the Bumbo yarn when I was looking through, perhaps that's not available anymore?? Shame as it looks really nice. :(
@@alwayslearning9272 The prices have increased so much now that I only buy at the Black Friday sale. It is so disappointing as I do like their yarn. But most is now out of my price range even when on sale such as winter glow. I can't remember what I paid for winter glow back then but I know that even when it is on sale now I can't afford it. Happy for them that they are making money but they will price themselves out of business. I have already reduced how much I buy from them. We'll have to start looking for cheaper places (if there is any???)
For me I don't have the perspective that you do to be able to compare prices with when they started as I've only recently been exploring them and enjoying delving into buying from them, but I found the sale prices over Christmas and January to be quite good. I had first got some tea time for $8.30 but then it went on sale for $7.60 and some colours came back that I hadn't seen before, a lovely white tea with different shades of brown and cream was the highlight that I just had to get!! 😃😍 There was a lovely peppermint iced tea as well, the names really get me too! I got colorina for $3.05 and twister for $6.60 so was really happy with those prices, think they were quite comparable to the good sale prices you can get. I'm glad I grabbed some different colours of the black Friday yarn which I went back and did after seeing the lovely walnut one that you got, and also got curry, ecru and a lovely light grey that had really interesting subtle flecks through it, malange they called it. They were $12.10 a pack but are back to $20 now! My main thing that I'm keeping an eye out for is for the winter glow to be on a better sale, I haven't seen it for less than $20 and that's too high for my budget! Oh speaking of, what does the winter glow feel like in comparison perhaps to a nice soft acrylic like tea time? Is it still soft considering it has a higher wool content? I generally only like a 20% content of wool as I don't like the prickly feel of wool or for it to be itchy, so I wasn't sure how I'd go with the almost 50/50 blend of the winter glow??
@alwayslearning9272 winter glow is such a beautiful yarn and works up with such a beautiful drape. One of my all time favourites. Tea time is becoming a favourite and I just love the colour range and the colours look fantastic made up, but winter glow feels much better. (Just my opinion 😀) The colours you have got just makes me want to buy more. Enjoy your stash and happy crocheting 🧶
@@luckyplatypus Thanks so much for getting back and letting me know about your experience with winter glow, that's very reassuring as I wasn't sure if the wool content would bother me at all and I know you like wool a lot but I don't if it's rough and scratchy so tend to avoid it usually unless it's an 80/20 blend. I have had some of the main colours of the tea time arrive now but haven't used them yet but am really looking forward to doing that, still have some overlapping Christmas gifts that I'm completing and then I can move onto making myself some wearables after that! That's why I've ordered some of the twister yarn as it's an acrylic/cotton blend that I want to make some Spring tops out of. The prices I mentioned above were more out of interest to compare with how you do on black Friday but those sale prices finished yesterday in the January sale, but definitely keep an eye out for those for another time as it was so exciting to see about 5 or 6 new colours that I hadn't seen before with the tea time yarn so I'm so glad that I went in and had another look!! I don't think they are brand new colours but rather numbers that had been skipped over before from unavailability but had since returned, I got very excited but not trying to influence the influencer! :)
Hi there! :) I'm having fun looking back on your previous Hobbii yarn hauls from a while back now and didn't realise I hadn't seen this one (will watch part 2 shortly). I wanted to ask you what the colour number was for the red Black Friday yarn pack that you got, as it was a really lovely shade of red but I don't know if that's what they have now for the current Black Friday yarn? I've been having quite a bit of fun getting some lovely yarn and I hadn't bought from them before so it's been extremely exciting!! From your reaction here compared to the latest haul it seems like the Black Friday yarn has improved quite a bit from this time, and they actually have more metreage than they used to, 360 metres now compared to 330 that you said here, that's surprising! Colours have changed a bit though by the looks of it, but glad the quality has gotten better! :)
As far as I know, they only produce that selection of Black Friday yarn on that years Black Friday sale. I have never found the same one twice. (But I could be wrong🤔☺️)
Approximately what size would the poncho be?
@@difreeman7591 this is free size. But comfortable for size 10 to 16/18
Do you half double crochet only back loop?
For the ribbing of neck, single crochet back loop only. For the hood, half double crochet as plain normal stitch (no ribbing, ie not in the back loop). However if you want to rib the hood you can do so. You can do the hood in any stitch you like. I left it plain to make the tutorial very easy . Hope that makes sense and helps.
just to be certain - are there no increases done on the two outer edges of the top hood part?
@@leylamyers2493 no increases anywhere.
@@luckyplatypus one more question - "10 balls baby merino yarn" - how much grams is in each ball? or - what is the total amount in grams or meters for the project?
@leylamyers2493 they are 25g, 100m balls each. Therefore, joining 2 balls together I used 50g balls of 100m each. 500m in total. Hope that makes sense
Fantastic!!!
@@bushyhartman7421 Thank you 💕
For worsted weight what would starting chain be. Still 90?
Going by a yarn chart, as I used a 5.5 hook, this would be a light worsted yarn. You can use a worsted yarn if using the same hook use the same 90 stitch chain. Or chain until it is the size that fits comfortably around the head. Hope that helps.
@luckyplatypus OK thank you
What is the yarn size
@@mayakc9981 The yarn does not say. But as you see in the tutorial I use a 5.5mm hook which, if you go by yarn charts, says it is a light worsted yarn. Hope that helps.
This is a great tutorial, thank you. I'm crocheting this jumper now! I think I'll add in a roll neck for extra cozyness. x
@@fionataylor.yarn-over-fee3040 Awesome!!! Would love to see a photo when finished. Can send me a photo via FB messenger @Lucky Platypus. Enjoy and happy crocheting 🧶
I am not left handed and it was still such an easy tutorial to follow!
@@MakaylaBaird-d7v That's great. But here is the link to the right handed version if interested ☺️ ruclips.net/video/KWLY8e41Qak/видео.html Enjoy and happy crocheting 🧶
This looks so much better than the knitted ones I have seen. I live in Massachusetts and it has been in the teens and single digits for the past couple weeks now and this would be PERFECT
Do I call it single crochet till 65 rows?plz reply me..I wanna make this
@@221shahinanasrin5 it's single crochet in the back of the stitch to make the rib stitch for the neck. Hope that helps and makes sense. Enjoy and happy crocheting 🧶
@@luckyplatypus Thank you very much for your reply❤️
Do you skip one chain?
You make a turning chain at end of row (1 chain stitch), and go into the first stitch of the row, not the turning chain stitch. Hope that makes sense.
@luckyplatypus Yeah..Thanks
Love it, I am going to try it, I would love to know the measurements of each part ( like the lengths and the wide of each section) so if I use another yarn size or hook size I could replicate it better :D
@@takhisisharuki I don't have measurements ATM as do not have any made up for now. However if I did a different yarn I would measure it against the person I am making it for. Do a chain for the neck and see if that is the correct length and go from there. Make the width of neck and measure again to person. And when you get to the hood keep working to the height required. Hope that makes sense and helps Happy crocheting 🧶
@@luckyplatypus Thanks a lot, I am doing that hehe lets see how it turns out as I am a beginner :D
Beautiful! Thank you, I'm giving this a go

Thank you!!!
all of you who think this pattern was taught correctly is stupid as hell I am pissed I spend so much time on this for her to teach you how to do a big ass runner with a hole, there are no directions on how you get to a front and back panel with a hood.
I absolutely enjoyed your tutorial ❤
Thank you ❤️
Beautigul❤
@@annatassi4035 thank you 💕
Ok u chain 120 every 10 u mark. Now the 40 and mark next and count another 40 and mark. I’m lost here because that’s 80-81 now you say it’s 40 left. Where are u at I’m lost on that part
To make the hole for the neck..... you count 40 stitches and put a stitch markers. It can be the 40th or 41st stitch, up to you. I put at the 41st. From the other end count 40 stitches and put a stitch markers the same as you did before. I do it at the 41st stitch. This will now mean in the middle you have, including the marked stitches, 40 stitches remaining. 40 for the shoulder, 40 for the neck, 40 for the other shoulder, total of 120 stitches. Hope that helps and makes sense.
I cant see how your chrocheting all this in one piece ? Is it seamless ? I wished you would show the full tutorial instead of the camera so close to your garment but I appreciate this tutorial very much ❤️
@@virginiaroberts4921 You crochet the back, then one side of the front, then the other side of the front and sew up the sides, then work each arm, then the band around the front. I'm sorry if my explanation is not clear. The way my camera is and the stand makes it hard to film far away. Most people like the close up so they can see how the stitches are created. I try to make it as easy as possible for beginners.
Thank you sharing.
Lovely cardigan. Thank for the clear and concise directions.
Thank you ❤️
how many chains for medium

It's so pretty.... love the way you showcase it...
I would have thought that you would have more rows in the front for the bust😊
@@marykearney4365 you could do if you needed to but I have not come across that need yet and I have made and sold many of these jumpers.
So if i used a yarn that needed a 6mm hook would this be the same? And would i only need 5 balls of yarn instead?
Could be. Do a test bit for ribbing and another test bit for the hood. If happy then yep it will work. Enjoy and happy crocheting 🧶
Sadly my hobbies is stuck in the mail because of the Canada post strike

Thanks! I made the cape using 12 balls of Hobbii tweed dreams and a little less than 6 of universe. I am planning on making one out of another universe yarn and alone without the hood, a collar instead.
