I absolutely love how this is 6+ days instead of straight into totoro and that you show your trials and errors instead of making it look so easy. You make it look achievable as long as the person is willing to put in the work not that "Its so easy. If you don't get it the first time then there's something wrong with you."
The type of fabric makes a huge difference in your punch needle experience! A really tight woven fabric doesn't leave a lot of room for the needle to punch through. Also the angle is inportant. The needle should be straight up and down. You did an excellent job with what you did! Also,there are special hoops you can get that really can lock the fabric in place so the fabric doesn't slip. I'm inspired and totally going to do something on a tote now too!
Okay, so some tips: • Leave your project loomed until you're COMPLETELY done, including gluing. • Don't try to trim until you've glued because you risk pulling out yarn. • An electric razor is going to be infinitely easier and bat for your hand health than trying to cut every loop with those huge chunky scissors. If you like the look, do try latch hook at some point! You have much more control, but it does take forever.
@@RCakr something you can do if you are having issues with an electric razor, is cut the loops with scissors initially, and then go back over it with the electric razor for a more even cut. This makes the razor not have to work as hard to cut through the loops in the yarn and can provide a more uniform cut
If a razor doesn't work, then using small precision scissors can atleast give you more control. The chonky ones she was using make it quite hard to cut neatly in my experience.
Is it possible to do this kind of punch needling on clothing that would be washed in a washing machine? I'd love to try it on a sweatshirt for my toddler... but sooner or later it would have to be washed.
I bought a punch needle around 4 yrs ago and it’s still in its original packaging. RUclips suggesting this video to me is a sign. And even better, I know what to expect: not perfection during the first go ❤
I love the honesty of this! I’ve also realized a lot of crafts look easier on social media than they actually are - I took up knitting in 2021 and I remember it taking me months to actually feel like I was smoothly knitting without frustration and lots of mistakes. On top of that, it takes even more weeks/months of course to get to actual finished wearable garments. The short videos can make it seem so quick and easy to pick up, so I appreciate you being honest about how long it took you! Tbh I thought punch needling looked easy haha but this sets up realistic expectations. I would love to see more realistic learning how to do XYZ videos from you :)
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video haha. There's nothing wrong with the ~aesthetic~ videos, but for newbies like me the crafts really do tend to be harder than they look haha. And I'm definitely planning to make more of this type of video in the future! 😊
Well, social media mostly show you a good part. Like the best outcome u can get. It doesn't show the amount of time u cursed at yourself because u keep doing the same fucking mistake, the amount of time u tried to do something decent and it did not work and u just want to scream because of it. But thats literally how you learn; by doing an okay thing first and gradually learn from your mistakes. Don't let social media fools you. Try, do mistakes, do better.
Try machine knitting - it's fun and you get garments to wear that don't take weeks to make. Best of all, because stitch making is much faster you feel freer to create your own designs.
OMG this Totoro is so adorable!! Also, here's a tip for any hobby you need to draw on fabric: you can use a frixion pen, and make it dissapear with an iron when you are done.
Hello ! Nice job ! I like your Totoro ! If I can give you a few tips : - "match" the yarn thickness with the fabric hole size (if you use a canva with big holes it's better with thick yarn / small holes -> smaller yarn). Also, make sure your fabric is really tight (almost like a drum). - your needle needs to be straight (90° angle with the fabric), and the hole the needle should face towards the direction you are going. - push the needle as far as you can go (the plastic part after the needle should touch the fabric), then when you go to make another loop try to keep the needle as close to the fabric as possible (in the video I can see you pull it sometimes too far and that causes the loop to be pulled from your canva). - when trimming the loops: use thiner scissors so you can be more precise I hope this helps (and that me English was understandable because I am not an English speaker) :) Good luck with your other projects but with what I've seen here I am sure you will do wonderful things :)
Really appreciate you showing your own growth a progress of trying a new hobby. For all us out here that get upset when we aren’t instantly good at something.
I don't even like punch needle designs but still watched all the video because learning from previous projects is priceless. You described exactly what each mistake taught you and the result was a great quality video. Wish yt had more like these.
I never really comment anything on youtube videos but this video made me cry. I was into punch needling earlier this year, but I stopped after upgrading to a punch needle that can be resized. I originally got a starter kit that came with a fixed-size punch needle, and for some reason, the new one just doesn't work. The yarn won't stay in place, and I didn't have anyone to ask for help. Plus, being a student, I couldn't really afford to buy more yarn just to experiment, so I ended up quitting. Watching you and seeing how it is normal to struggle a little at first really motivates me to start punch needling again, Thank you for this video you gain a smol little subscriber
So glad I randomly came across this video! I bought a punch needle last month and I had so much trouble with the stitches coming out that I gave up and kept it aside. Your video makes me want to give it another shot so thanks!! 🥰
I LOVE your attitude about the process. I tend to troubleshoot just like you did, but I tend to beat myself up for the mistakes or for not being better than I am right out the gate. This was so inspiring. Thank you for sharing. I am less scared to start a project I have been putting off.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video :) And yeah I totally feel that - a lot of the times things go way less smoothly than you expect 😅 But I'm learning to ~trust the process~ and just focus on improving a little bit each time!
Love the final product but loved the process even more. As crafters, we have the mindset of "I can do that- no problem" and sometimes it's not that easy. Alas, I'm off to Michaels in the morning for punch needle supplies.
Glad that i found your video!! You're not only showing the progress but also showing the failures and hardships which most of the videos never shows. Thanks for that❤
I’ve literally been knitting for years and have amassed a ton of yarn, but never came across this craft until now. Thanks for sharing your learning process (the good and bad). I now have a new way to use some of my yarn. Your Totoro stops my heart with its sheer cuteness ❤
man your vid is so relatable and transparent, thanks for no clickbait and staying entirely real. also HAIKYUUUUUUUUU OMG HIIIIIIII I LIKE DAICHI WHAT ABOUT YOU?!?!?!
I really enjoy your process. It's so greatful when you want to achieve something and you can notice your progress on it. Beautiful result. I do crochet, but now I want to buy that needle and start practicing ❤
This was such a lovely video!!! It was awesome to watch you go through the process of learning! People who might be intimidated by art would feel a lot more encouraged by a video like this!! Thank you for putting this together, teaching and sharing 💙🌱
Exactly! I feel like craft/hobby/art videos are like 45% people just already being good at it and 45% trying to teach it because they’re already being good at it. I need more videos like yours, the 10%, people who aren’t good at it but are honestly learning and documenting all of the mistakes, tips and tricks, and just the natural process of LEARNING it. It’s more relateable and appealing to me as a beginner to learn from another beginner than to learn from an expert. In shorter words, i love this comment and this video! 😂❤
you can buy a pair of small yarn scissors that are really sharp and precise to help quicken your cutting. I love this video and seeing all the trial and error before the attempt!
This is such a helpful video to a viewer because you included the little mistakes and things you learned throughout the process. I have always wanted to pick up this craft, and after watching this video I think I might!
Wow, it takes FOREVER. And I barely understand how the yarn stays in place after you punched it through the fabric 😅 I think it would have been extra cool to reuse one of your design from the cute drawings video, like the star cat! :D The fried egg looks pretty nice though!
LOL honestly same 😅 I think that's why you have to glue it on the back though to make sure things stay in place. And that's a good idea! I'll keep that in mind for next time~
@@StellaSun11 For craft ideas, I was thinking about popup cards, it has potential for some cute or cool anime designs. Also, learning 3D modeling with Blender (could be a bit time and skill intensive) and make cute animals (another Totoro? Kiki's cat?) or objects, or cute little 3D rooms that match your aesthetics.
I liked this video before I even got to the end of it and I was so proud of the finished product 👏🏾. Not only was it realistic to see the trials and mistakes because I felt like I was learning with you, you have a pleasant disposition that kept me smiling the whole time 😊 Also, this was a random recommendation as I'd never heard of this before. I'm tempted to try it out, but can't promise it won't get forgotten like my abandoned knitting/crocheting projects 😅
I have to say thank you for this. I tried punch needle years ago and failed so hard I never picked it up again. But your progress has renewed my desire to give it another go. Thank you for sharing this.
I bought a punch needle without to know What to do with it, I saw another video about this subject, but wasn’t convinced about the results and what to gain with this embroidery technique, bur you convinced me, this is a very interesting object to have to make fluffy decorations faster. Thanks for sharing all your nice videos!
This was randomly suggested to me by YT, but I was immediately hooked! Your end results are beautiful and worth the time and effort it took for you to learn each step of the way. ❤ thanks for taking the time to document this :)
this is gonna be so helpful, thank you for keeping all the lil disasters in there! I hope my first full project even turns out a fraction as good as these
First video i’ve seen from you and i’m happy i clicked it 🥹 truly appreciate the realness of your work and progress, makes me feel motivated (a first) instead of the usual instant feeling discouraged by the struggles i go through! AAA
omg thanks this looks like a nice hobby to learn. Also thank u for recording your beginner journey and whenever you discovered something New of faced difficulty you shared! 🙏
Could you use a rug trimmer (like the ones used for rug tufting) to shave down the yarn instead of cutting each loop? Maybe it would make at least that bit of the process faster? Hopefully someone has tried it because I’m curious. But this video was fun to watch. Your Totoro came out super cute! 😊
Sometimes when I try a new craft I feel like I just won't ever 'get it ' and give up too fast. Thank you for sharing the whole process, I feel like it will help me stick with it. Your Tottoro turned out really well, super cute!
I feel inspired although I absolutely have cross stitches I need to do first (and schoolwork). But oh my goodness I finally understand how people are getting fluffy designs!!!
This was such a fun video to watch and I learned so much from you. Your tote bags turned out so adorable. It was really helpful watching your journey in learning how to punch needle.
the crying hello kitty was kinda funny 😂😂 i really wanna learn punch needling now i didn't even know about it before 😍 as someone who like textures i might like this. Also, I think hair cutting scissors would be much better because they're long/slim and pointy.
I'd just like you to know that mentally im going through a tough time, and this video just made me forget about my troubles with your cute voice and adorable personality. Thank you so much for posting great vibes in your video, and i like how you keep the positivity rolling after each mistake. Who knows, maybe I'll give this craft a try.
Wow this was such a great video! I just recently bought a punch needle to work with. I haven't used it yet and I learned so much from your experience that I wasn't aware of. So thank you! Now I have a better understanding of how to approach the whole thing. I also didn't realize a smaller weight yarn is better. I can't wait to try it now.
I don’t need another hobby, I don’t need another hobby, I don’t need another hobbyyyyy!!
Me rn 😂😂
I was screaming the same…
I was thinking the same thing!!! 😂

Same xD

Thank you for the advice! That makes a lot of sense, I'll definitely keep it in mind for future projects :)
Yes, the Morgan one is supposed to be good, you can either order separately or the combo :)
if u dont mind me asking, if tight woven fabric is harder to work with, what fabrics are easier? like t-shirts or smth?
@@GachaPizzaWeasel Monk's cloth is recommended, but you just have to give different ones a try to see what will work. :)
@@pennycandyys oo tysm!! I just bought a punch needle kit and I have no idea what to try it on lol. this helps a lot
Okay, so some tips:
• Leave your project loomed until you're COMPLETELY done, including gluing.
• Don't try to trim until you've glued because you risk pulling out yarn.
• An electric razor is going to be infinitely easier and bat for your hand health than trying to cut every loop with those huge chunky scissors.
If you like the look, do try latch hook at some point! You have much more control, but it does take forever.

actually, don;t. because if it's a bit hot/cold the lines come back
yeah i was going to say i thought the blue marker was the type that goes away with heat
I think taylors use light coloured chalk - it is subtle and washes away :)
Hello ! Nice job ! I like your Totoro !

You're seriously so underrated for your high quality videos.
Aww thank you so much 😊
np :)
NO BC I THOUGHT SHE HAS 120K SUBS OR SMTH 😭
Ikr
You mean low quality
watching you go through the struggle of troubleshooting a new hobby makes me feel seen and heard, thank you so much lol

Girl you can always take breaks in between your projects don't hesitate to do so, DO NOT strain yourself
Take care of yourself 💖
You did great keep your hard work flowing ❤
Thank you :) Yeah I definitely learned my lesson a bit with this one, the craft was harder than it looked!
Tote-or is so adorable and I can't believe how cute he turned out and now I want a tote-oro!!!! TT
TOTE-ORO.
Ahh thank you so much ^-^ I'm so glad others are appreciating the pun LOL

the progress & improvement from the first tote bag to the second tote bag was honestly amazing.
I just started crochet last 2 weeks, don't make me have another new hobby😅 This is so cute and tempting!!!
I love how genuine and raw your learning process is 😍
Thank you, I'm glad you liked the video ^^
I love how your videos have little to no adds on it ever 😭

If this helps you have to use the right size needle, right sized yarn and right fabric to make it work
I’ve never seen this sort of craft before! It was so cool!

Thank you so much for posting great vibes in your video, and i like how you keep the positivity rolling after each mistake. Who knows, maybe I'll give this craft a try.
Aww thank you so much! It really means a lot to me that people enjoy watching my videos :)
I love your positivity throughout the attempts!
oh my GODDD it looks adorable
Wow this was such a great video! I just recently bought a punch needle to work with. I haven't used it yet and I learned so much from your experience that I wasn't aware of. So thank you! Now I have a better understanding of how to approach the whole thing. I also didn't realize a smaller weight yarn is better. I can't wait to try it now.
Wow ❤ Totoro looks super duper cute & fluffy. I'll surely gonna try this.
You should try crocheting next!! It’s super fun and easy. I loved this video ❤
