So with your scrapbook you should do like the pattern instructions with each sample. So like front and back of each page so 2 per page. I think that would be cool. So in 100 years they have a sample and the instructions.
“We did not just commit crochet crimes here. I don’t know what you are talking about!” 😂😂😂 I am REALLY going to have to remember that statement. The ornament is great. I think you are supposed to be able to use as many colors as you want. The pattern seemed to leave that open. Definitely a success! And I like the idea of the scrapbook.
I kept thinking the whole while that crocheted with #10 cotton or smaller that this would make a super fun pair of earrings! Engineering Knits did a video not too long back of some antique crochet/ knit sample journals she found. It included patterns for various types of lace tape, edgings, etc, with the sample attached. Some of them were actually sewn right onto the page! I hope you keep us posted on journal progress 😊
In putting your crochet items in your scrapbook, there are packing list adhesive envelopes that you could put the item into and then tick to the page. That wY you can remove the item and replace it. I also like the suggestion of putting the crochet directions with the item. Love watching your channel. You are so fun to watch
In the white row, row 5, when you were doing the [2HDC in one stich, 3HDC in next 3 stitches] repeat 7 times. On the 7th time you worked the 2HDC in one stitch but not the 3 HDC in the next 3 stitches. That's why you were 3 stitches off at the end. 23:57 start of row
The Paisley was super cute! I kept screaming at the screen Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell 😂 Crochet crimes 🧐 I saw no milk cartons with photos of missing stitches on the backs of them. Adore and appreciate the scrap book idea. Just a thought to attach work to page.. instead of double sided tape use hole punch to place hole in paper then tie/sew work on if worried about pins/tape/glue ruining work. Just a suggestion. This was a fun one. Hope all else is well ma’am 🧡
Regarding the notebook: There are various sized smaller archival plastic envelopes that will affix to a scrapbook page. They are made to hold keepsake things that are not as easily put into a scrapbook as photos. In addition to sleeving the pages, I would number, name and date each entry and make an index. I remember my junior high home ec teacher making us "sew" patterns on pieces of copier paper with the sewing machine before she turned us loose on the machines with actual thread. She got mad at the boys in the class, because they made "hot rod" noises while pushing on the foot pedal. 😄
Hi from Perú, Corina! I have my mom's samplers (knitting, embroidery crochet...) and she sewed everything to cardboard. After almost 100 years, everything is in perfect condition. Oh, and your pretty hands look very much like my mom's did. ❤
Your sense of humour is awesome! The "crochet crime" part had me in stitches. I'd put a crocheted paisley amoeba in my christmas tree, that thing came out really cute! You might already have an idea for the scrapbook by now, but I used to punch holes in thick paper and run a ribbon through them and tie my lace to the page like that.
Very cute & fun! Agreed on the shoe until the cluster row. Then thought it was a petal for a big flower, then a fan of peacock feathers...definitely a new virus!!! 😂 Another excellent and fun tutorial! Love that you're gonna do a scrapbook, and what a beautiful book you chose! To best preserve your work, you absolutely need to use only acid free paper for mounting and maybe as page separators - plastic sleeves may brown your work. No tape, as stated by many if your subscribers - it browns and WILL destroy your pieces. Tack pieces to the paper using wider stitches that won't tear the paper. Maybe research how to mount textiles to preserve them? I have embroidery pieces I made 40 years ago & mounted/framed using all acid free materials - not a speck if browning! Worth it!!!
I just finished a crochet baby dress. I saw a picture and fell in love. Was waiting for payday to order the pattern and found out it was a charted pattern and I don't know how to read a crochet chart. So delved into videos on how to read a chart. Also found a tutorial on how to crochet the dress, but it was in spanish. Oh mom and grandma why o why didn't you teach me spanish, why did you think I wouldn't need it? Took years in high school but cannot speak fluently. So I delve into the tutorial with English subtitles, making notes in English and after two weeks, I have a finished dress for a newborn.(I have a reborn doll that will wear it after I make a slip to go under). Dress is very lacey. I thought English terms to American terms was something else. Spanish is on a whole nother level. From what I can comprehend, a sc is called either a half stitch or a half point. She talks about points a lot. She uses term double crochet for a dc or trc. Only clarification is sometimes a dc with one or two wraps, so going by what she was doing in the video was crucial. Still wondering how she got from 5 trcs in lp on one row and next row by adding one trc in first and last st of previous fan she got 8 trc instead of 7m, which now means I have an extra row and instead of ripping out the fan and starting over adding an extra chain loop to each fan. It is beautiful and with my right arm in a sling will start trying to write a comprehesable pattern from my notes. I did the dress in a size 10 thread with an irredescent mono filiment in it. I got it from Hobby Lobby a few years ago for 7.99 and it is made in Mexico. I did my own twist on the 8 points of the fan putting purple bows with pink ribbon roses in the center at the point of each fan. I also used the stacked sc at the beginning of the rows on the bodice of the dress and really like the look of that opening edge. Will find some way of sharing when I'm done.
The scrapbook is such a cool idea. Be ready to buy two or three books with all the crochet you do. Have you thought about a photo of it on too. That’s something the Victorians generally couldn’t do.
hiya corinne! i immediately thought applique piece when you did the first color. brilliant idea for a scrapbook! good for you - be a keeper of the past. a steward of crochet art. acid free everything as to not damage anything. xoxo
I think your scrapbooking idea is wonderful! You can also decorate the pages as well, as a lot of scrapbooking paper people do. One thing I will mention is that when I am mounting Crosstitch pieces, I have to be sure to use acid free, tape. Double sided or single sided, it doesn’t matter, acid free means it will not turn the fabric yellow after a few years. I don’t know if yarn reacts the same way as Crosstitch fabric does, but if you can find acid free, double sided tape, it would be a better option. Good luck, and I will keep watching.
Watched the video last night and after turning back to the youtube starting side, they suggested a video "how to crochet a book" on Samantha Clair Crochet. Because of the match I watched that, too, and - although I did not enjoy half as much to listen to Samantha as I enjoy listening to you, dear Corinna - I like the Idea and the design. So all of you crocheters who can not affort the amazon scrap book, or those who are that crochet-mad, that they want to crochet the book for the crochet samplers, might take a look on samanthas channel
Awesome ornament!!! I was thinking sanitary pad!!! LOL!!! Maybe because I had seen an advertisement on tv for them. I have been racking my brains how to insert my mom's samplers in a book - I had them in a smaller photo album but the pages ripped. I have many empty bigger albums acid free and with sleeves waiting for pictures but this was a wonderful idea!!! Thank you I don't know how long tape would hold them down...on my other book, I had stapled them -pretty good until you try to unstaple them! My mom (who was a seamstress) made me practice sewing on paper before graduating to cloth. I might try that out as I haven't found any videos that have been shared, but there are some excellent ideas to try below. Definitely something to try as my samples are already getting old (from the 60 s) Thank you all!!
Bacteria!!! LMAO!! Until you got to the last row color, I was saying it looked like an avocado to me, LOLOL. I was standing in my kitchen guffawing loudly when you said bacteria though!! Super cute...even with the weird color scheme goin' on there, LOLOL!
I thought for sure it would be a 60’s hot pad! You did a great job. I’m on my 3rd or 4th fan doily and I’m just going to say you’re a genius and mine is unique to say the least! Thank you for all you do!
Oh I love this! How fun to see an ornament. The idea of a crochet scrapbook is such a beautiful one. You can TOTALLY sew through the cardboard. Especially since it's a ring binder, if you take the page out and mark where you want the holes and punch them first it will be very easy to sew in the pieces. You really just need to tack them in a few places.
I have made a scrapbook myself with samples and patterns. I found that fabric glue and kids school glue sticks are perfect for crochet samples sticking to paper. Good luck with your scrap book and I know you will have a lot of fun creating it.
This is such a cool idea. I am guessing along with you. I have a great tip for you on those ends. Crochet over them as you go. You'll hide then and no weaving!
My 1 st thought was a baby booty , then an applique to the end , surprise to an Ornament wow . Like how u can fudge ur way out of stitches lol , love your idea about the scrap book !! Another great video !! Thanks
It would be neat also to take a picture of the cuff on your wrist, maybe pin it underneath. In case in 100 years they don't understand what a cuff is. Great job on the ornament & deciphering the instructions for us‼Thank you❗
I have to laugh, because I knew exactly what this was when you got to the last row. I said this is a Paisley Christmas ornament. I had seen this pattern years ago from the 70s and considered doing it in Christmas colors. I was very tickled to see you pulled this one out.😊
It reminds me sanitary napkins. For women if you know what i mean. If made fully of cotton and maybe with a few ribbons you could fesibly use this as one. The clusters would work as a barrier. Put on a backing with cotton and while it may not be comfortable... well it would work. It also reminds me of all those old bicycle seats that have the springs.
So cool! I'm going to make some of these for Christmas presents. My niece likes this kind of stuff. This is perfect for her. Thanks! Great idea to scrapbook these things too.
You could make plastic envelopes to put on each page of the scrapbook , you can seal page protectors with a stencil making tool , try and look for some tutorials on making them , you can also use laminator sleeves to make plastic envelopes , you then stick the envelope to the page , then you can take the item in and out .
Just make sure the note book is archival. I do genealogy work on my family and it crazy the damage done to items due to non archival storage. Please consider it as you've put so much of your time, energy and love into these projects.
Tape usually turns brown in time. You could get some fabric and suus fabric stiffener and use hole punches to add to you book and sew them on and place in a cover
Hello, I saw a video by the lady whose video you shared a link to the other day, it was a sample book of needle work one 😊 Best wishes from Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧
Beautiful item. Imagine made with tread, it will even nicer in a smaller size. Concerning the scrap book: I have learned to never keep treasure fabric items in plastic for a long time, the plastic will/ can ruin the cotton/ wool/ linen.
You can definitely sew them on if the pages are cardstock weight. Just use a fine thread and pre-punch the holes. Alternatively, you can sew it on to a seapare piece of cardstock and then tape/glue it onto the page.
What a fun, cute pattern! I love the sampler book, too. I've seen a few vintage ones, and I just love the whole idea of having that tangible record of what you've tried out making and leaving that as a legacy for someone to discover someday. Love it!
Take an awl & make holes to sew the samples to the pages with cotton thread. Yes it takes more time but it will last longer & not damage the fibers. Also use archival pens. Just a few tips from a collector of quilts.
Loved the fun video! Great idea to start your memory book! I do family research and it is so rewarding when you can fit pieces together. How great for your family to always have a piece of you to share!
I totally thought it was a decorative avocado 😂 the colours were just too perfect! I'd actually make this though, I'm thinking of using it as an appliqué on some clothes though...
I thought it was a spoon rest., first was sole of a baby shoe. BONUS I was thinking of the same for needle tatting and crocheting samples. You saved me so much time looking for the right scrapbook.
Hi, I’m just seeing this now in March, may I suggest when you use the plastic sleeves in your scrapbook, put the pages in with slit at the top so things don’t fall out. I just came across your page a week ago and I just love watching it, you are so good at figuring things out.
I saw the sampler video, and I thought it must have been something used to help clients choose patterns for lace, to be made for them. Nice video, for sure.
For Your Scrapbook , use non-acetone clear sleeves. That way you can slide your pieces into them flat. They have special non-acid tape to hold into their place. And you should put the pattern in another sleeve. Use the dark cardboard as a separator between pieces. P.S. I guessed it was a pasley but not works for. Love the colors...
Thank you so much for watching! Please hit the " Like" button above if you did like the pattern and Subscribe for Tutorials like this and more! :)
Busted out laughing, “it’s bacteria”. I was leaning towards avocado initially. Love to watch this series.
So with your scrapbook you should do like the pattern instructions with each sample. So like front and back of each page so 2 per page. I think that would be cool. So in 100 years they have a sample and the instructions.
Ohh, fantastic Idea! , thanks!
An excellent book idea.
😂 "It's a beautiful bacteria." Had me guessing right up to that point!
😁
My thought was that it was a papaya!! I like the paisley, though. It definitely fits the 70's era
“We did not just commit crochet crimes here. I don’t know what you are talking about!” 😂😂😂 I am REALLY going to have to remember that statement.

Good idea about the book! I would use only acid free sleeve backing paper and tape! You don't want acid to destroy the fiber !

First I thought it was avocado ! Love your colors on this. Awesome ideas ! Thank you Corinna !!!
So did I ,I agree the colours are gorgeous together
I thought it was, too!
It looks like a Stunfisk Pokémon. Lol. It’s really cute!
Awesome idea to also decorate a gift bag. 😉

That could easily become an avocado! 😂❤
"it's a beautiful bacteria!" 😂😂 I love this series
After the 3rd round I yelled out what it was lol. I put the groovy and the shape together and it dawned on me, this is way far out man!! 😊
The scrapbook is such a cool idea. Be ready to buy two or three books with all the crochet you do. Have you thought about a photo of it on too. That’s something the Victorians generally couldn’t do.
It’s to hang on a doorknob for privacy! Just kidding.
Psychedelic bacteria Christmas Ornament! Cool!
Love the scrapbook!
Groovy Corinna!
A bunch strung together would make a fun bunting.
Yours looks like an avocado!!😂😂 I love it!! Great job!
It does! LOL
This was fun. I was thinking it was going to be a pan holder, with the double thread making it thicker and more heat resistant.
Love your scrapbook ❤
hiya corinne! i immediately thought applique piece when you did the first color. brilliant idea for a scrapbook! good for you - be a keeper of the past. a steward of crochet art. acid free everything as to not damage anything. xoxo

Omg I was baffled until you showed the picture! I never would have thought 😂 Love the scrapbook idea! ❤
Would make amazing, lightweight earrings!! 😁❤

As you were making it, I thought paisley, but there wasn't a curve. I love this! I've always like paisley though. I have to make!
I think your bacteria ornament turned out awesome! 😂
I knew it was a Pear shape! YAY! That was such fun, I might make some for Christmas tree decorations❣️

Will be nice to make bell sleeves with 5 of them❤

Yay! Love mystery patterns, can't wait to see what it could be! :-)
I think making a scrapbook is a great idea.
Pot holder? Cannot wait to see what it is. Your colours are beautiful. It is a stunning design
It would be neat also to take a picture of the cuff on your wrist, maybe pin it underneath. In case in 100 years they don't understand what a cuff is. Great job on the ornament & deciphering the instructions for us‼Thank you❗
I really like the colors in yours, actually! And the little extra curve on one side is very dynamic.
Very cute idea especially to use on gift packages. Thanks
Cracking me up about the bacteria! Love it! Haha
😁
That is the pasley print. Well known in fabrics, upostury etc.
Get some tombow scrapbook adhesive. It’s safe for pictures and other textiles.
LOVE Mystery Patterns! I actually did the one from the 60s, and I love it! I wear it all the time! And, the scrapbook is brilliant!❤
At first I thought it was going to be a fancy bike seat cover😂but your bacteria was so funny it’s hard to stop laughing 😜 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Success!!!!!!!!!!👍
Corinna ya did it again! I simply love your toots! You are so very talented ❤
For your scrapbook, maybe including the printed patterns, that way future finders can also try making it too
Scrapbooks supplies you'll need are foam mounting squares and scrapbook adhesive!!
I have to laugh, because I knew exactly what this was when you got to the last row. I said this is a Paisley Christmas ornament. I had seen this pattern years ago from the 70s and considered doing it in Christmas colors. I was very tickled to see you pulled this one out.😊
It is definitely a cool success. Your scrapbook is a fabulous idea!!
I just decided on these for my Christmas tree this year. They are sooo gorgeous!
Thanks Corinna😊✌️
Thank you for sharing! Love the paisley ornament!
Looks like an avocado to me. I like it as an ornament.
It reminds me sanitary napkins. For women if you know what i mean. If made fully of cotton and maybe with a few ribbons you could fesibly use this as one. The clusters would work as a barrier. Put on a backing with cotton and while it may not be comfortable... well it would work.
It also reminds me of all those old bicycle seats that have the springs.
So cool! I'm going to make some of these for Christmas presents. My niece likes this kind of stuff. This is perfect for her. Thanks! Great idea to scrapbook these things too.
You could make plastic envelopes to put on each page of the scrapbook , you can seal page protectors with a stencil making tool , try and look for some tutorials on making them , you can also use laminator sleeves to make plastic envelopes , you then stick the envelope to the page , then you can take the item in and out .
Just make sure the note book is archival. I do genealogy work on my family and it crazy the damage done to items due to non archival storage. Please consider it as you've put so much of your time, energy and love into these projects.
Oh I LOVE the book idea. That is going to be beautiful.
I thought the ornament was going to be a hot pad. Love it.
You can punch holes in the cardboard with a thin awl and sew the items to the card!
I like your bacteria pattern better then the paisley pear drop. Lol
hahaha Bacteria! While cute and fairly easy, I don't think I will. be hanging them on my Christmas tree. Thanks for the fun morning!
I found a youtuber who created a scrapbook. The book is made completely crocheted...Samantha Clair crochet. The book is adorable!
I really think you should sew the samples into your book. I knew from the cluster row that it was going to be an ornament.
Tape usually turns brown in time. You could get some fabric and suus fabric stiffener and use hole punches to add to you book and sew them on and place in a cover

Btw, a scrapbook sampler is a genius idea.
Do a small personal picture of then in use. The cuff would look nice on a dressy pair of gloves this winter.
The white round, you left off the last 3 hdc of the repeat. That's why you had extra st at the end.
Take an awl & make holes to sew the samples to the pages with cotton thread. Yes it takes more time but it will last longer & not damage the fibers. Also use archival pens. Just a few tips from a collector of quilts.
Really cute ornament, but wow, the counting and the ends, lol. I hope you use it on your tree though.
Loved the fun video! Great idea to start your memory book! I do family research and it is so rewarding when you can fit pieces together. How great for your family to always have a piece of you to share!
Like the idea bout the book! 100 hundred years rom now there will be someone else trying to figure out what you did! Cool
I totally thought it was a decorative avocado 😂 the colours were just too perfect! I'd actually make this though, I'm thinking of using it as an appliqué on some clothes though...
I thought it was a spoon rest., first was sole of a baby shoe. BONUS I was thinking of the same for needle tatting and
crocheting samples. You saved me so much time looking for the right scrapbook.
You could use fabric tac or fabric fuse to adhere them to the paper. That’s what I used for my stitch library for my Pfaff quilt pro
I love that scrapbook so much. Its so cool!
This was awesome ❤

Love the patterns and class! Thank you for sharing these beautiful patterns and crafts!😊
The book is such a good idea. Good work on the paisley sampler: it's impossible to see any little 'tweaks'.
What a fun pattern!! And I love the idea of the scrapbook, that’s going to be awesome!! ❤
For Your Scrapbook , use non-acetone clear sleeves. That way you can slide your pieces into them flat. They have special non-acid tape to hold into their place. And you should put the pattern in another sleeve. Use the dark cardboard as a separator between pieces.
P.S. I guessed it was a pasley but not works for. Love the colors...
