    I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has hair in their crochet...I always tell my daughter if she ever needs any of my DNA for any reason just look in something I crocheted......there is sure to be plenty of my hair woven in it.

    Those gaps are the bane of my existence as a hooker, and this solution is a friggin' GAME CHANGER!! Thank you so much, Crystal. :)

    Wow what a simple technique. I love cables too but the gap does bug me. Thank you for this tip. You explained it very well. Now onto the next video I saw that pop flower granny square looked supper cool

  • @amydavis4945
    @amydavis4945 Год назад +10

    Absolutely brilliant! There are times where the holes are desireable, but there are definitely times when they are not. This is such a simple way to resolve the hole issue that I can't believe I never thought of it, LOL! It's always exciting when you've been crocheting for almost 50 years to learn something new. This is why I love your channel! Thank you! 💜

    Wow!! Crystal, did you invent this technique?? Genius!! Thanks!

  • @debt8632
    @debt8632 Год назад +2

    I've only done one project using cables. I made your men's pullover sweater, used dk weight yarn, and it was prefect size for a woman's small. But I thought I was doing something wrong because of those gaps. Because of that, I haven't done any more cable projects. This technique is the perfect solution!! Now I won't be afraid to do cables!! Thank you!

    Well I quit crochet on the spot 1 1/2 years ago because my granddaughter lost her baby at birth. He was who I was mainly doing all for. But now I guess I am sort of over the main pain and will start making things for others again. I used to watch almost all your videos but just shut them all out. Back to watching again because I love what you teach.

  • @alissagonzales735
    @alissagonzales735 Год назад

    I learned to do that from a friend. But I actually prefer the holes in the stitch. Crystal you have the ability to make everything simple. A gift that not many have.

    I've been knitting for over 7 years now and recently have been getting into crochet cables. One of the reasons I prefer knit cables is because you don't really have this gaping problem, but this is such a creative way to fix it! Looking forward to practicing more cables.

  • @kismymailks

    Thanks, Crystal, for that great solution . I'm cabling a cowl at the moment so the gap isn't an issue. However, if I was crocheting a winter jumper it probably would be warmer without gaps . Take care.💚
