Happy new year morning to all the family baby it’s cold out side and I really got to go loves and big hug’s y’all
You should def do a tutorial on the cropped white cardigan u made 🥺🥺🥺 it was so beautiful! Sending my love and support--I love your videos!! ❤
Yes yes it’s coming in January!! Gotta do the patchwork cardigan first 🥲💓
This works up so fast I love it. Thankyou for sharing ❤🎉
Thank you for being here 💖💖
omg its here
I love the yarn! I used the exact same type for a tote bag I made earlier!
Where did you find this yarn? Thanks
@@daisy9014 I found it at micheals! It’s by craftsmart and I believe it’s the one of the colors in the jacquard line
@@daisy9014 were you able to find this yarn color?
Finally a cool tutorial ! not very easy to follow specifically because English is not my native langage, but the pattern is really easy to do. Maybe you can show the importants steps slowly and then do it faster. And zoom in more because, some time its really hard to see. But thank you, this is great and I’m definitely gonna do this for Christmas!
Love the black balaclava! What type of yarn did you use?
thank you for this!! finishing up my balaclava tn :) & gonna use your method to crotchet a ski mask next. thank you thank you!!
How do you keep the 4 rows of dc you did after making the ribbing from fanning out so much? it makes it look so much bigger but i don’t know what i did wrong
Where can I buy this yarn? Thank you so much your video is amaaazing
The colors of this yarn is so beautiful. What is the color name/number? Hoping I could get my hands on it!
do you think for the top portion I could just keep double crocheting up and then slip stitch and cinch the top together like you how you finish your beanie in your beanie tutorial?
Lol no roast let’s bake this perfect cookie she’s so kind and funny thank you
I feel your crying about ripping out mistakes 😂 I'm the very same way..... I thought I was the only one😅. Cute Balaclava ! Thank you !
Love this tutorial!! I made mine
I love this pattern and just attempted to make one and it came out alright, but i did struggle at the top with slip stitching each row to the other side. I have some big holes after each row, does anyone have any tips?
I’ve attempted this about 4 times until I’ve finally given up… if you’re a beginner just a heads up that this video is pretty confusing, but I love how hers turned out!! If anyone has actually managed to complete theirs I’d love some help 🆘😭🤣🤣
i think what could be confusing is how she's holding the hook. I don't know if you are like very begginer (this is your first or second project) or like you have done some crocheting but still getting confused, but I would recommend that when she says (or writes) the name of the stitch that she is doing, you can look up a tutorial video always about it, then try it for a few times and after that, pull it out when you get it. I still do this sometimes because my attention span is not always the same (e.g at night) and sometimes it's just how it's shown in the video and I can't really put it together in my head. My other recommendation would be to try a granny square balaclava, as granny squares are usually more beginner friendly and there you just have to make plenty of them and then join it. Hope this helps, don't give it up yet
I’m beginner, this is my third project. I made sure to learn each stitch she mentioned and the terminology by watching different shorter tutorials. I knew all the stitches in advanced luckily from complete beginner tutorials. I looked up things like ‘how to connect yarn’, ‘how to double crochet in post’, ‘how to double crochet in the round’ and prototyped (aka failed a bunch with cheaper yarn to figure out what I kept getting wrong
I also didn’t do the foundation double crochet, but instead just changed the difference and then double crocheted into that which only made it look slightly different
what size hook and yarn did you use? can i use a chunkier yearn wiht a 9mm hook and just do less rows?
Hiii what hook size and yarn weight/yarn material did you use?
Thanks for a great tutorial! I am a beginner at crocheting and was wondering for the ribbed collar part, should I chain two before turning the work to begin the next row of front post double crochet?
i’m also a beginner so it could be wrong, but i think yes!
Can you do a video on how to make a hooded turtleneck?
I wish you had printed instructions for your pattern you do on your stitches that would help me a lot because I don't watch the video continuously when I'm trying to make it but I put the information in my calendar so I could go back to refer it refer to it when I'm making it but I do love your pattern and you're a good teacher and that's a very good idea you were very creative and thank you very much
so sweet
Very nice 👌 👍
Beautiful! Just one thing I dont understand... when I have to Connect the 2 top parts to close the work, how can I make the half double crochet ? In whitch hole? Do I have to make chains and then hdc ?
Hi! How many stitches did you put in the ribbing after 5:20?
hey i dont know how to do the ribbed pattern, can i just double crochet instead? or would that throw anything off?
Tutorial is great, do you have a printed pattern to reference?
What size hook and yarn do you use?
Hey, instead of the foundation chain, could you just do a chain and then go round to finish up the balaklava?
how did you do the double crochet at 14:03 ?
Ily
hi :) could you let us know how you first connected the foundation dc to the other side of the panel?
im pretty sure she slip stiched it
I think she slip stiched it 3 times just like she later did on the other side
Sorry if you said but what size hook and yarn are you using x
I put cat ears on mine aah it turned out so good!!
Ooooh show me in the discord please! 💖
I’m really confused on how to attached the foundation double crochet to the other side and am having trouble trying to making it look right :///
Struggling with this as well!!!
I think she slip stiched it, thats how I attached mines to the other side !
i’m confused too…
ruclips.net/video/nuToidIhd9w/видео.html , I followed this tutorial!
I got confused too, I have a trick,
What to do
1. Chain 4
2. 1 double crochet into each stitch
3. Turn around to the top and keep crocheting!
I made two!
I can make a video on my RUclips how to do a balaclava I have two balaclava now!
so when we're doing our rows back and forth for the top piece of the hat, we're only doing the SS plus 2 more SS for the first 2-3 rows and then just one SS per row afterwards? thank you for the amazing videos, currently making mines right now and can't wait to finish it !
Hi!! No you continue the initial SS and then 2 more up the side for each row!! 💓💓💓
@@itserinb omg thank you soooo much for this, can't wait to finish it 💞
Balaclavas are weird, I know, but they are also cute if you have the right attitude, I made mine and added a shell border around my face so it looks like one of those flower costumes moms do to their kids for school plays 😅 it's kind of ridiculous but I love it
Not ridiculous! Very creative take on it, I should make one too 😂🤍
Omg I made my husband a “face sleeve” w that EXACT YARN in my stash that was also scrap yarn 😂 great minds think alike
Such great frickin yarn 🥰
What's the color name? Gonna try my luck looking for it lol😬
this is definitely one of the better balaclava tutorials out there but can you help me out? how do you do a DC decrease? what does that mean?
Hi!! There are a ton of videos on DC decrease, but the best way to describe it is - work a regular DC but before you pull through the last two stitches you yarn over and pick up the NEXT stitch, pull through two and pull through three! 💓
@@itserinb thanks so much
Help!
Anyone know how to connect the foundation dc to the other side ? I’m not sure where to slip stitch it
I love these but I'll never be making cz I won't even look good on em 😭😭
Oh yea I forgot to tell you that your voice reminds me of Scarlett Johansson’s voice 😊😊 Happy New Year🎉🎉
Great video and all but can you show some of the stiches more coz’ I’m a little confused..
I got so lost around 14:00 when you started with the foundation double crochets. Like, how do i do those? Do i just do i siple chain, connect it to the other side and then go in with the fdc?
Hi!! Foundation double crochets are a specific kind of stitch, there are tons of tutorials if you search it! 💓 but you can also just chain across and place DC along it to be easier!
Quick question, when I make the band how to I keep it from decreasing? Like to I make a regular DC at the end? Since there is no post at the end of the turn.
Nvm I got it. I didn’t crochet in the absolute first one which made it decrease every turn
Does anyone know what size hook and wool this is please?!?!
hey yall i need help! i am working on the top of the head and i’m curious if you continue slip stitching 2 after each row even after the first attachment? also do you keep skipping a hole for the first slip stitch? thank you!!
I just finished mine and yes you skip one stitch for the first slip stitch and then slip stitch 2 for every row!
I've been looking for a balaclava tutorial for the past few days so im very excited to come across this!! i just wanted to ask approximately how many grams of yarn this used if it's not too much trouble? thank you
Hi!! I don’t know grams but it used JUST under 200 yards 🥰🤍
@@itserinb thank you so much!!
How do you attach fdc to the other side and where does the gap come from? I dont understand 😢
Why is it necessary to turn instead of continuing on?
Link of the wool pleaseeee
how do i attach the foundation dc to the other side!!! pls help
I think she just slip stiched it to the other end. If you pause it at 14:33 it shows that the bottom part of it is loose and not connected to the other side. Only the top part she connected But im also very confused. You could just chain and then go back with double crochets
how much yarn did you use?
I'm already making my second one! On the first one I made the face hole too big :/
here
Is there an alternative for the double crochet foundation stitches? Its kinda difficult for to do 😭
I think if you didn’t want the ribbing or it’s too hard you could just do double crochets instead
@@EdTheGirlo i do want the ribbing. But at 13:40 wheres she talkimg about the ✨foundation stiches✨ i wish she went more into detail only because im done look right 😭
Is the ribbing at the bottom front post double crochet and back post double crochet??
no it’s only front post! :)
Correct it’s just front post double crochet for every single row 🥰
@@itserinb do you do turn with this stitch as well?
What size hook?
I was with you til that foundation dc chain. Couldn’t figure out how you connected to the other side or where this gap that closed off comes up 😩
SAME...
same here!!
Hey. I’ve looked for tutorials for the Front post double crochet stitch but all of them looks so different to yours ? Can you help a girl out ?🤭🤭
Hey !!! i can't download the pattern anymore, where is it available ? :) Thx !!!! love your account
Yarn size and hook size? Please and thank you 🙏 please
What hook size did you use? peace and love
5.5 I think! 💓 I wrote it in the video!
Girl I can’t close the backkkkk helpppoo
edit: I found a tutorial that describes this part in detail ruclips.net/video/27y5UBkwiEw/видео.html
like several others I am confused on how to join the foundation double crochets to the other side. where do I slip stitch and do I do the extra two slip stitches there as well? could someone that has figured it out help me understand? no matter how I do it, it doesn't turn out right :(
What size hook did you use?
5.5 ✨
You're a freakin comedian🤣
I don’t get how she makes the foundation dc’s, like does she chain first?
you chain 4; yarn over; go back into the 1st loop you made, as well as the back tiny loop (bump); yarn over and pull through; (you should have 3 loops on hook); yarn over; go through ONE loop (should have 3 still); yarn over; pull through 2 loops (should have 2 loops on hook now); yarn over; pull though both and you have 2 double crochets. To continue making double crochets you repeat the yarn over part but instead your hook goes through the bottom of the last stitch. it'll take some time to figure out what the bottom is (for me it did at least) but you'll get it. Don't be afraid to try it out and unwind until it makes sense to you.
What is she doing when she Starts to knit by the Stich Marker? 😅 (9:58) did she cut the Yarn before and Starts new? 🤔
Is there a written pattern by chance for this?
I included the written directions on screen throughout the video! 💓
Where is that yarn from 🥺🥺
Michaels!
Do you remember the name of the brand? 💛
Anyone can do a step by step tutorial please? 🥺
hey do u wnat me to send u a written pattern?
