Thank You Thank You! I did it. I’m in the process of knitting a hat with Rowan 50% wool 25% alpaca and 25% viscose. I’ve been wanting to learn how to crochet, but couldn’t find anyone left handed to teach me. I’m sure Grandma Alice, my Dads mom would be proud. It was my Moms mom that taught me the basics in knitting, and my Mom taught me the advanced stuff. I’ve got an idea for a knitted blanket. I’m going to work it out on graph paper. I want to be able to crochet the knitted squares together. Again thanks God Bless.
I'm a right hand crochet, but decided to learn left hand crochet for a while because I like to learn new ways to do things. Love the way you explain it. ❤
oooommmmgggg THANK YOU! I have tried to learn to crochet on and off for about 2 years. This tutorial is the only one that has actually taught me how! The way the video is shot is perfect. I can't wait to keep practicing and getting better!
Wow! Mickey you are a terrific teacher. I'm 82, left-handed and just decided I wanted to learn to crochet. I know, late starter, right, but so glad I found your tutorials. Thank you so much.
I'm learning to do crochet with my left hand for my sister -so we can learn together! Before I liked you a lot, and after this video, I love you! You speak with such thought and detail that I SO NEED. This shows your care and passion. I appreciate you and the time you put in to teach us! Thank you so much. 😇
I'm only 13 minutes in and already I'm so thankful for this video. Rarely does anyone go so in-depth (especially for us leftys) and I'm always left so baffled and confused as to what's happening. This is perfect, and gives me the confidence I need to get started. Thank you.
I just tried about 10 videos for beginners and just couldn't get started properly. I decided to search for left handed crochet to see if that helped (being left handed myself), that's when I found this channel. I've actually made progress! Thank you SO much!!🤗
Wow thanks so much for explaining how to hold your yarn for tension! It's hard to find anything for left-handlers, and you took the time to describe it slowly and with detail.
Thank you Mikey! I am a lefty who learned to crochet righty (probably because I was taught by a righty), but learned some bad habits. Watching you crochet and trying to hold the yarn and hook the way you do has already made my stitches so much nicer! And crocheting lefty feels like coming home! I'm so grateful to have discovered your channel!
Thank you...I have been trying to crochet for 40 years but always get told to turn it around. Today you helped me do something that I never understood. I made the turn...Of course I had to go back in and do my chain again because it was too tight. Thank you I am looking forward to learning so much more. I didn't even need to go buy hooks and yarn. I pulled them out of the one day I will learn pile.
One of my sons watched me crochet growing up. His first deployment to Iraq he asked for a crochet hook and yarn. He self taught himself crocheting and made a queen size bedspread. He found that crocheting helped him relax and took his mind away from the war.
Thank you for this... our 9year old grand is ready to learn, but is the only left hander in our family...after trying to show her I remembered you and your great tutorials.... she is getting it now!!!! Thank You!!!!
Thank you my nephew (9) is left handed I’m very happy to see that you have lefty videos. I figured since you taught me how to crochet you would be a wonderful teacher for him as well! Especially since I’m a righty lol. I was having a hard time showing him how to hold the yarn. I also realized I probably shouldn’t have fast forwarded through the hook holding explanation, I decided to change how I hold my hook to save my wrist. Thank you for all the awesome information!
Wow, have only watched a few minutes and am very impressed. I haven't seen anyone else explaining that you need to rotate the hook to pull it through the loop! Am optimistic about my progress with you.
Trying to show my left handed 8 yr old how to crochet. It was a disaster, this video looks very helpful. Gonna give it another go tomorrow with this video on hand lol
I have been crocheting since I was 13 but I still don't know much farther that the very basic stitch of single and double crochet. I learned today something that makes my project look so finished. That is how to start your single crochet by crocheting into the spine of the chain. I love this method. Thank you Mikey for having these left handed tutorials. I am going through and learing how to crochet the correct way now at 55 years young.
This video is amazing! I had repeatedly tried to teach my 13 year old left-handed daughter to crochet and we were struggling despite using several books and other videos. Mikey does an excellent job of explaining everything and making it so easy to follow. My daughter was able to easily learn how to crochet by watching this video. She was so proud that she could finally crochet! She started with several washclothes and is now working on her first afghan. She also now can watch what I do and see how to do it left-handed. Thank you so much for this wonderful video!
I "learned" from my mom but didn't keep it up. There was never any talk of stitches, she just knew what she needed to do. Go glad I found this!! Also, I was a lefty which made it difficult for her to teach me. I'm so excited to learn this again!!
Wonderful tutorial! I am a leftie, but learned to crochet from my right-handed husband. I am happy to see that I am doing things pretty much the same as you are! My biggest issue has been watching videos by right-handers and having to reverse patterns.....
My daughters friend came over for me to show her how to crochet….I was having her watch me and follow along then I glanced over and oops she a leftie! I told her I would only confuse her.Found your video!! Thank you!!!!!
You're welcome. I beleive we have 600 videos for lefties. Use the word LEFT HAND: in front of a project name. like Left Hand: Shawl and you will see results magically appear.
This is positively the most comprehensive tutorial I have come across for beginners and trust me, I have looked at many. Finally found one that has helped me tremendously with my beginner left-handed crocheting - thank you so much.
hola crochet crowd i love your video i am a new crochet and am left handed. my teach wil be happy because i learn a little bit about crochet thankd to you.... god bless you...
Thank you for this easy to follow tutorial. My mom wants to learn to crochet with me so I was going to learn it then teach her. The only snag is she's left handed and I'm not. This was the first left handed tutorial in the search results and so helpful. Everything was explained in detail and it was easy to see what you're doing. I like the close view of the stitches so I can easily compare it to my work. This will be a big help to us both.
I was struggling for a while because I couldn’t figure out why me base loop kept falling off when I was making my chain; your specification of turning the hook was a life saver!!
Thank you for this!! I'm a right handed crocheter, but the young girl I mentor is left handed. Rather than try to teach her to crochet right handed, I'm learning to crochet left handed.. which thanks to your video, I now know how to do!! I have a couple weeks to perfect my technique. Thank you!!!!!
Thank you so much for this video and the thorough explanation of the tools and techniques! Thanks to this video, I was finally able to make chains after almost 6 months of trying!
Great video! thanks! I'm left handed and I've been knitting right handed for a while, and it worked, but I could never crochet right handed for some reason. thank you so much!
Thank you so much! You are a wonderful teacher. You are one of my favorite ART teachers! Teaching a left handed skill can be difficult. You made it easy. I dig your voice and extra ease with your expertise.
OMG thank you for doing this video!! Ive been trying to get my hubby to want to crochet for donkeys' years (Im female) he thinks it is a womans' hobby so he won't learn. Now I can show him a GUY crocheting!! I also love that your video is easy to follow, nice and slow with a good clear close up. Oh... and you showed us to go into the back hump on that first row, which so many people don't do... Brilliant!! :) :) Oh I'd love a male crochet buddy! lol
You are a great teacher! I just started learning literally last night and I’m overwhelmed. You explain everything in such great details though. I love this video
Fantastic video thanks I used to be able to crotch years ago, but I completely forget how to I have watched video after video I came across your video I will probably have to keep watching it until I get it.
I think I got the single crochet, but half crochet Ugg. I’m a knitter, so everything looked really messy to me. Geez I’ve done fisherman’s sweaters, no problem. I think what is hard, seeing where you are inserting your hook. Thanks for the lesson.
All these years I have been “yarn overing” wrong ! My grandma taught me at the ripe old age of 8 and ( Bless Her) she was right handed !! By setting in front of her, the thread or yarn was “ throwed” away from her , and that’s the way I’ve done it for 60 years !!! While watching you, I realize I’m not doing it right !!!😱😱 All the stitches are fairly uniform except for the half dc, and my tc. Should I try to relearn how to do the stitches the way you do or just keep going the way I’ve done all these years ??? Not that I’m a fast crocheter but the “ new” way does slow me down cause I have to think about it ! Hopefully I’m making sense and you can help . Thank you .
Hi Mikey, I have two thing I want to say, the first one is thank you for taking the time for doing this video. I always wanted to crochet, but because I'm left handed always found it very differcult to do. When my kids were new borns I had a go at it, but it was confusing and their wasn't alot of help around d then. So, thank you very very much. Now the second thing I wanted to say is actually a question... When I turn the chain over to be hump side, and start the 1st single crochet row, I know I move the hook two rows down, but what I don't understand is do I continue to move two rows down until I reach the end? Please help...
Because my carpal tunnel from wrist up to shoulder on my right side I'm going to try to teach myself how to crochet left handed so that I can alternate. I'll let you know how it goes. Thank you.
I am so jealous! I am naturally right handed but a stroke has leaving my left hand curled and useless in terms of maintaining tension. I have learned to knit again but crochet has left me baffled to the point of trying to relearn with my left hand. Have you a different solution I could try?
hi i m handicap and left handed can u make video related to that? i cant use right hand more and can u u send send such videos on whatsapp? my number is 9825697920
We have a left handed dedicated channel. We have about 175 playlists already here on RUclips. You are best to visit our dedicated Left Hand Channel. We have some playlists there and all new videos appear only there. Here's a link to it. ruclips.net/channel/UCjxdhijXUPaUZDTx8gnj-fg
hi Mikey. I have a question for u. I was wondering if I'dine doing a tutorial on how to read those crochet edging diagrams? I see a lot on Pinterest but they don't have the written directions. if u have time
If I want to make a twin size blanket with singles and doubles with the yarn doubled with an "N" hook how much yarn would I need? Like how many skeins.
why does your crocheting looks perfect and mine looks like crap??? i can barely do a single but it look like garage i been doing crocheting for few years off and on any tips to help me please????
Help! I’m left handed and got the chain. But when I’m trying to do single crochet, the stitches are staying on the hook like when you do knitting. My first time trying to crochet.
Gosh, I've watched a dozen of videos on this now I just cannot do it. Theres literally no tension and my hand is super uncomfortable! Never even managed a stich, fed up
I’ve tried 3 different versions of feather and fan and cannot get through any of them so I’ve given up. I’m a lefty but have not had any problems with other patterns.
mikey I've been crocheting for some time now and done several projects on your other side my question is why is my 40 year old baby blanket knitted by my grandmother in three colors staying together and never having loosened and yet I have worked in my crochet loose ends on baby blanket projects and 1 months later they're coming loose. I have done it threading with a needle going one way in the stitches and then another to lock them in place and they still come loose. I have used nodding and then working in the end. I have worked the yarn in in with my other stitches $0.01 which color. Nothing works it seems like crochet and always come loose. What am I missing here? Anyone?
I was taught how to crochet by mom who is right handed. I am left handed. I hold my hook like a knife but I hold my yarn very different from the way you described. Are there other ways to hold it or am I doing it wrong? I think my projects come out looking ok but I want them to look GREAT. If I am doing it wrong please let me know so I can correct it.
may be a little late.. but he stated in the beginning of the video that some people hold there hook and yarn different to their liking ..because it is a personal liking/comfort

I failed trying to make one I guess I am failure I failed at the panacord bracelets, I failed at the friendship bracelets and now I failed at the Crochet bracelets
Brittany, that made me so sad when I read this. I am 58 years old. I do understand how you feel. I have never had any finger dexterity. My handwriting is awful and embarrassing. I have never had a hobby because of this lack of dexterity even though I tried different things. My daughter-in-law is now trying to teach me. She has encouraged me to not give up, so I am going to keep trying to simply make a chain until I feel confident and comfortable before attempting anything else. Please try to find a person who can watch you and give you some pointers and encouragement. Feeling like a failure is so hard on our self esteem, I know from personal experience. Chin up!
Thank You Thank You! I did it. I’m in the process of knitting a hat with Rowan 50% wool 25% alpaca and 25% viscose.

You are the only person I have been able to learn from. I was ready to give up!!! Thank you.
It takes a while for a person to connect with a host that matches. Like even in school not all teachers can connect with their students.
Thank you this is the best I have found for a left handed. I feel I can learn how to crochet.
Wow! Mickey you are a terrific teacher. I'm 82, left-handed and just decided I wanted to learn to crochet. I know, late starter, right, but so glad I found your tutorials. Thank you so much.
At least someone who takes the time to explain the rocket science us mere mortals who are learning... nothing else to say but Thank You
Thanks. I try not to be too long winded but to give you the knowledge to why procedures are done in a certain order.
Omgggg, thank you so much mikey you actually followed the steps through with us
I'm learning to do crochet with my left hand for my sister -so we can learn together!
Before I liked you a lot, and after this video, I love you!
You speak with such thought and detail that I SO NEED. This shows your care and passion.
I appreciate you and the time you put in to teach us! Thank you so much. 😇
Thank you for this video. You are helping me teach my daughter who is left handed to crochet. I am right handed been crocheting for 20+ years
EVERYONE in my family is right-handed! This makes it so easy for me. I love your attitude & your personality. :) Thank you!!
I'm only 13 minutes in and already I'm so thankful for this video. Rarely does anyone go so in-depth (especially for us leftys) and I'm always left so baffled and confused as to what's happening. This is perfect, and gives me the confidence I need to get started. Thank you.
Thank you so much! I am left handed and multiple videos on crocheting are only for right handed people. I will watch lots of your videos. Thank you!
I just tried about 10 videos for beginners and just couldn't get started properly. I decided to search for left handed crochet to see if that helped (being left handed myself), that's when I found this channel. I've actually made progress! Thank you SO much!!🤗
Thank you for showing this beginner left handed how easy it can be.
Wow thanks so much for explaining how to hold your yarn for tension! It's hard to find anything for left-handlers, and you took the time to describe it slowly and with detail.
Wow so informative!!!! I will continue to learn from you! I just tried it yesterday for the first time! :)
FANTASTIC VIDEO!! I have been knitting since I was 6, but never learned to crochet. Thank you so much for including us lefties!!
We do have a channel dedicated to Lefties.
ruclips.net/channel/UCjxdhijXUPaUZDTx8gnj-fg
The Crochet Crowd The link doesn't work. What is it under? I want to learn but everything in print is backwards and the books don't help me. Thanks
Gretchen Jonker, me too. I really want to learn, I like the almost instant gratification 😀
Best left handed demonstration for lefties I've seen yet, and I've watched a ton of them!! Thanks so much!
Best tutorial ever! Thank you so much. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Best, clear instructions by far from so many videos I have checked out! Thank you!
Thank you Mikey! I am a lefty who learned to crochet righty (probably because I was taught by a righty), but learned some bad habits. Watching you crochet and trying to hold the yarn and hook the way you do has already made my stitches so much nicer! And crocheting lefty feels like coming home!

Yay, another male crocheter! Take that everyone who calls me girly!
Keep doing you, boo
As long as YOU are happy
Love to hear that a male crochets, because as far as I'm concerned, anyone can do so.
yaaaass!!
One of my sons watched me crochet growing up. His first deployment to Iraq he asked for a crochet hook and yarn. He self taught himself crocheting and made a queen size bedspread. He found that crocheting helped him relax and took his mind away from the war.
Thank you for this... our 9year old grand is ready to learn, but is the only left hander in our family...after trying to show her I remembered you and your great tutorials.... she is getting it now!!!! Thank You!!!!

Thank you I'am learning very useful techniques.
I was struggling for a while because I couldn’t figure out why me base loop kept falling off when I was making my chain; your specification of turning the hook was a life saver!!
I’m glad I could assist you over the hurdle.
Thanks! Great, simple instructions. Very easy to follow.
Thank you for this!! I'm a right handed crocheter, but the young girl I mentor is left handed. Rather than try to teach her to crochet right handed, I'm learning to crochet left handed.. which thanks to your video, I now know how to do!! I have a couple weeks to perfect my technique. Thank you!!!!!
why do you hate big mac
why do you hate big mac
If you crochet in a mirror, she will be able to watch your reflection. That is how my Mother taught me.
Exactly the same situation... my left-handed niece has asked me to teach her, so I'm trying to learn with the other hand!
Once again I’m all crochet up for today guess I’ll be back tomorrow thank you
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I haven't crocheted in many years and forgot everything. Your tutorial was so helpful for a lefty like myself!
Glad I was able to help!
You are a spectacular instructor! Thank you so very much for posting this! And... LEFT HANDED. :)
Thank you so much for this video and the thorough explanation of the tools and techniques! Thanks to this video, I was finally able to make chains after almost 6 months of trying!
Great video! thanks! I'm left handed and I've been knitting right handed for a while, and it worked, but I could never crochet right handed for some reason. thank you so much!
Thank you for this. I'm a lefty but was taught to crochet right handed. Years of crochet and band have left me with carple tunnel
Thank you so much! You are a wonderful teacher. You are one of my favorite ART teachers! Teaching a left handed skill can be difficult. You made it easy. I dig your voice and extra ease with your expertise.
I wanted to learn how to crochet and a co-worker recommended I watch you because you were very detailed. All was going well until 5:39.
After watching this video in SLO mo I finally was able to Double crochet. ThNK
Thank you. I sprained my right hand and I'm wanting to try left handed
OMG thank you for doing this video!! Ive been trying to get my hubby to want to crochet for donkeys' years (Im female) he thinks it is a womans' hobby so he won't learn. Now I can show him a GUY crocheting!! I also love that your video is easy to follow, nice and slow with a good clear close up. Oh... and you showed us to go into the back hump on that first row, which so many people don't do... Brilliant!! :) :) Oh I'd love a male crochet buddy! lol
That's a super positive experience! I smiled reading your critique. Thanks for giving me a lift in positivity tonight.
You are a great teacher! I just started learning literally last night and I’m overwhelmed. You explain everything in such great details though. I love this video
Wow!, thank you so much for this video it is absolutely what I was looking for, well done!
Thanks for your kind concert with us left handers.
Fantastic! Very very very good instructions. Bless you!
Thanks so much for this - I needed to switch hands recently for crochet and your tutorial was a huge help.
Best beginner's tutorial by far!! 😊
Best tutorial I've seen! I think I might be finally getting it!
This is wonderful .really useful for the beginners thank you
Can you make a motivational tape? I love your voice, and the message at the beginning!
this is the first vid ive watched that explains so beautifully thank u so much
Fantastic video thanks I used to be able to crotch years ago, but I completely forget how to I have watched video after video I came across your video I will probably have to keep watching it until I get it.
I will be showing this video to my 10 year old son who's left handed and wants to learn how to crochet.
Thank you and God bless you.
Thank you for this fantastic video for us lefties. Can you please list which brand and size ergonomic hook you are using in this tutorial?
I think I got the single crochet, but half crochet Ugg. I’m a knitter, so everything looked really messy to me. Geez I’ve done fisherman’s sweaters, no problem. I think what is hard, seeing where you are inserting your hook. Thanks for the lesson.
This was very helpful 😊

When my kids were new borns I had a go at it, but it was confusing and their wasn't alot of help around d then. So, thank you very very much.

I love the tutorial thank you :)
Hi Mikey, do you do a left hand single crochet waistcoat tutorial 🤔
Because my carpal tunnel from wrist up to shoulder on my right side I'm going to try to teach myself how to crochet left handed so that I can alternate. I'll let you know how it goes. Thank you.
I love your videos :)
You'll always hear me say "...okay now gossip" to myself while starting a project. XD
I am so jealous! I am naturally right handed but a stroke has leaving my left hand curled and useless in terms of maintaining tension. I have learned to knit again but crochet has left me baffled to the point of trying to relearn with my left hand. Have you a different solution I could try?
hi i m handicap and left handed can u make video related to that? i cant use right hand more and can u u send send such videos on whatsapp? my number is 9825697920
Hi. Can you please make a playlist for all your left handed crochet videos? Thanks if you can.
We have a left handed dedicated channel. We have about 175 playlists already here on RUclips. You are best to visit our dedicated Left Hand Channel. We have some playlists there and all new videos appear only there. Here's a link to it. ruclips.net/channel/UCjxdhijXUPaUZDTx8gnj-fg
Okay, found it. Thank you!!
After I get my chain and then sc the next row should I be able to pull my short yarn and tighten? Thanks.
hi Mikey. I have a question for u. I was wondering if I'dine doing a tutorial on how to read those crochet edging diagrams? I see a lot on Pinterest but they don't have the written directions. if u have time
Do you have your own channel you explain so awesome thank you
I tell my friend when holding the hook it helps that was she would hold it overhand, due to her dexterity issues
If I want to make a twin size blanket with singles and doubles with the yarn doubled with an "N" hook how much yarn would I need? Like how many skeins.
why does your crocheting looks perfect and mine looks like crap??? i can barely do a single but it look like garage i been doing crocheting for few years off and on any tips to help me please????
Help! I’m left handed and got the chain. But when I’m trying to do single crochet, the stitches are staying on the hook like when you do knitting. My first time trying to crochet.
I’m unsure why that’s happening to you.
Gosh, I've watched a dozen of videos on this now I just cannot do it. Theres literally no tension and my hand is super uncomfortable! Never even managed a stich, fed up
I’ve tried 3 different versions of feather and fan and cannot get through any of them so I’ve given up. I’m a lefty but have not had any problems with other patterns.
Did you mention what size hook we should start with?
Help! For two days I've been trying to go into the back humps, but no matter what I do, I always end up with 2 loops on the needle?
If you crochet with a larger hook to chain... then switch back to the normal size if may help you. Go up a size or two and try that.
@@TheCrochetCrowd I figured it out. I was taking off the loops wrong
I know I am late getting to the party. If you are still reading comments, I would like to get that same needle. Can you tell me what is is?
It's a leather needle.
mikey I've been crocheting for some time now and done several projects on your other side my question is why is my 40 year old baby blanket knitted by my grandmother in three colors staying together and never having loosened and yet I have worked in my crochet loose ends on baby blanket projects and 1 months later they're coming loose. I have done it threading with a needle going one way in the stitches and then another to lock them in place and they still come loose. I have used nodding and then working in the end. I have worked the yarn in in with my other stitches $0.01 which color. Nothing works it seems like crochet and always come loose. What am I missing here? Anyone?
I was taught how to crochet by mom who is right handed. I am left handed. I hold my hook like a knife but I hold my yarn very different from the way you described. Are there other ways to hold it or am I doing it wrong? I think my projects come out looking ok but I want them to look GREAT. If I am doing it wrong please let me know so I can correct it.
may be a little late.. but he stated in the beginning of the video that some people hold there hook and yarn different to their liking ..because it is a personal liking/comfort
it is okey
There is no wrong way to hold the yarn. whatever feels best for you!
Is your hook from clover?
Hi Mickey how do I transfer my membership to my laptop?
You just sign into RUclips using the same account you are using on the device you sent this message. It will carry over for any device you use, you just have to use the same log on credentials across all devices.
That is handy also, as it will carry over your watch history so you can find videos you have seen before.
@@TheCrochetCrowd you answer me oh my g I can't believe this 😯 you are to much
I have the wrong hook! I need a ergonomic hook for sure!!! This is not working. I bought the plastic hook ugh
I failed trying to make one I guess I am failure I failed at the panacord bracelets, I failed at the friendship bracelets and now I failed at the Crochet bracelets
Brittany, that made me so sad when I read this. I am 58 years old. I do understand how you feel. I have never had any finger dexterity. My handwriting is awful and embarrassing. I have never had a hobby because of this lack of dexterity even though I tried different things. My daughter-in-law is now trying to teach me. She has encouraged me to not give up, so I am going to keep trying to simply make a chain until I feel confident and comfortable before attempting anything else. Please try to find a person who can watch you and give you some pointers and encouragement. Feeling like a failure is so hard on our self esteem, I know from personal experience. Chin up!
Omg I cant double crochet
I understood but I just can’t physically do it...
