I'm Helen. I make one-handed crochet and knitting videos, and how I adapt different activities to someone who only uses one hand.

There are a lot of things I need to comment about this film. Mainly, if you watch until the end, you will see the mistake. I should have watched the entire film before my director submitted to Digi 60.
There’s a scene where I voiceover “My OT asked me . . . , and I said knit.” Well, what was shown on-screen, was crochet. And the timeline is a bit incorrect.
My director had to cut a lot of things out because of time. And that’s probably why the shot and my voiceover were not syncing up with each other. I apologize for that. I should’ve known.
I have a lot of thoughts about my film in general, and I will make reflection videos after this one.

Remember when I said I’m going to make short videos, around 2 - 3 minutes? Well, I kind of missed the point in this video. In this video, I talk freely about my speech. I want to talk candidly about what I'm going through, on a daily basis. There are a few things I missed, for example, how I have difficulty reading aloud. I also forgot my Chinese, my broken Kaiping hua. I'll probably make anoth...

In this tutorial I am creating a single crochet stitch piece. Than...

Very cool video. You explained it so well. My mom was a Taishan person and my dad was from Hoiping or Kaiping. Everything in the two dialects was similar with some exceptions in how certain words were pronounced. One other example was when they said the word for nose. In Taishanese, my mom would say bi or sounds like bee. My dad and his mom would say "vay." I know in Mandarin it's "bi zi." I believe. Standard Canto...it's "bay."
It’s really an inspirational video👍👍👍👍
I think you are very brave to be so open about your story and you explain things very well, you don't need to feel embarrassed or apologise, it is very clear to understand. I hope you are proud of how far you have come and all the amazing things you have achieved so far and will continue to accomplish.
Aww thank you so much for this comment! I try my best, and I think I just need a little more practice in front of the camera. Are you Misty from Instagram? I appreciate every one of your comments❤️❤️❤️
So proud of you Helen! I feel so lucky to watch you grow as an artist ♡ Can’t wait to see what you do in the future.
Awww thank you Alexandria!❤️❤️
Hi, so in one of the scenes, the voiceover and what was on-screen, did not match up. I just had to point it out. I know we didn't have enough time to put everything I wanted to say and show in the short film, but that was a mistake. And I'm very sorry. I should have watched it before my director sent it to Digi 60, but it's okay. Everything's fine. There were so many parts that got cut, because of time, and I'm kind of sad. I think I'll participate in Digi 60 next year. I hope you enjoyed the short film. More to come!🥰
Good foryou for findingaway. Rhanksfortheinspiration
Vat as in value added tax ?
Hey, I just read your article on medium about crocheting one-handed - have you considered trying your hook mount with Tunisian crochet? I’ve seen videos of people doing it entirely one-handed (without using a second hand to stabilize), and it makes sense it’d be possible because the second hand is almost entirely used to control tension. It also doesn’t involve having to flip the piece to the other side when you work the next row, you just work back and forth on one side. Might be worth a try? Tunisian crochet has some cool patterns
Bonjour ma sœur, j'espère que tu pourras lire mon commentaire parce que je ne comprends pas anglais. Je suis handicapé du bras droit donc j'utilise la main gauche et j'aimerais apprendre à faire le crochet et voir ta vidéo me motive beaucoup parce que je me dis il y'a quelqu'un comme moi qui fait le crochet. Où est-ce que je peux trouver ton outil à crochet s'il te plaît ? Je crois que ça va beaucoup m'aider. Merci 👏

Hi - as a stroke survivor with one sided weakness this is hugely useful - thanks! ❤
Thank you for watching!❤❤❤
Amazing tutorial, what's the key to moving the two loop cuts away from eachother? 0:54 for me they move together in unison
Ты большая молодец. От меня лайк и подписка. Подписалась и на инстаграм тоже.
Merci merci merci , prenez soin de vous ❤
Thank you!!
Merci pour cette vidéo très instructive j' ai moi même qu' une seule main , vous m' aidez beaucoup

Just wondering where csn i get this crochet aid
Thanks! That's a nice lamp, and I learned how to use the spin and solidify tools
Brilliant!
Where can I get one of theses devices or can I see the whole wooden part?
The device that I have is a DIY crochet aid. You can either make your own or there is this website where they sell a simliar product to the one shown in my video. Here's a video where they show how to use their crochet device: ruclips.net/video/g600r_TW5fI/видео.htmlsi=saJEcgLhrx4i3JwQ
If you would like to make it yourself, I have a video that goes over the steps in building my crochet aid. Video: ruclips.net/video/vI1n_7ECSkY/видео.htmlsi=ZJYWrjscIX1DIRNP Hope this helps!
I am one-hand knitter. I use about 2 inches thick foam pad, wire cable clips with pins holding my knitting needles. I'm currently making round knit top down sweaters. Everything is possible as long as you find a way to do it.
Thank you for sharing! It's so cool to hear how everybody does their craft :)
Finding this video just made my day, I can’t move my left arm,my wrist or my fingers and I want to learn how to crochet 😊
I'm so glad you found my video! I hope everything goes well with learning how to crochet. There are so many ways to crochet, so don't give up if this way does not work for you. If you want to, check my latest crochet video about how I build my crochet aid. I use a different technique to crochet in that video, one that is much easier, compared to the way in this video. Happy crocheting!
That’s my grandma’s dialect. My cousin was a medical translator in San Francisco for that dialect. I am sure there aren’t much demand for that now.
Wow, my aunt works as a translator in San Fransisco as well.
That's so cool! Thank you for watching this video.
You were the first video to pop up when I was researching tool aids for crochet! I have tendonitis and carpal tunnels so I can’t have my hand in the same position for even 5 min, I will have to try out your tool 💕💕💕
I hope this video helped you! Thank you so much for leaving this comment❤
Oh my gosh. I had no idea how I was going to do that, and then as soon as you turn the loop over, I could totally see it. Hahaha. This is so much fun.
Happy crocheting!😊
I am trying very hard to rest my right hand because of tendonitis, which I extremely aggravated over this last week trying to get an afghan done by yesterday, and of course now I regret it. And I crochet and sew all the time. So my right hand and wrist hurting for little things is really, really not cool. I just tried sewing with my left hand, and I guess it can work, it's just going to take a lot longer. But then I tried crocheting with my left hand, and OUCH. Having to grasp the yarn and hold it out with my right hand hurt definitely too much. Very discouraging. I was sitting here trying to decide what I was going to do about that and just randomly said, "Hey Google, can you crochet with one hand?" And the first thing that came up, was your article in Medium! I am so very excited to find you. Thank you so much! I am going to get creative with this!
Thank you for this message! First time someone mentioned finding me on Medium, I almost forgot I wrote an article there, haha. If you check out my latest crochet video about how I build my crochet aid, I crochet with a different technique than the one I used in this specific video. I'll actually link it here: ruclips.net/video/vI1n_7ECSkY/видео.htmlsi=ZJYWrjscIX1DIRNP
Awesome. ❤❤❤❤❤
My family is a chinese/filipino when they speak they mention gopa- 500 hahaha what dialect is this?
Wonderful
Where video inspire you please
It's under "My inspiration to build my crochet aid" in the description box!

Oh my god! I had a stroke and only have the use of one hand. I can't wait to try this trick. I don't crochet or knit, but I might try it. I'm also going to order that fantastic cutting board that you recommended. Can't wait to start cutting my own vegetables (and bagels!). If you happen to know of any other one handed tutorials or resources for hemiplegiacs maybe you could send me some links. It would be greatly appreciated. Love your channel and just subscribed. You're so inspiring. Looking forward to seeing your channel growing and helping more people like myself. Thank you so much for all your hard work that I know goes into these videos.
Thank you for your sweet comment! I'll definitely share what I've found to you and my audience if something new comes up. Have a wonderful day! :)
