Thank you so much for teaching how to crochet a zipper by hand .. if I could give 10 👍🏾's up I would!!! You are a fantastic teacher and thank you so much for sharing your gift🤗🤗🤗

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

You are so welcome! Thank you so much for the kind words. I truly appreciate you.

Thank you. This helped me with a big square I did earlier this year and had a recent thought of turning it into a pillow case with a zipper. I just need to make another square to attach to the one I have.

Thank you for this great tutorial! It's my first time making a crochet pillow cover and I wanted to add a zipper because most of my clients have young children, so making it washable makes life easier for them ☺

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

I'm so happy this is helpful for you. Thank you for letting me know.

That was wonderful. I have been afraid to add a zipper to yarn creations. You made it look so easy.

Just the instructions I needed to finish a pillow cover for a child - thanks!

By Sylvia! Thank you for a great tutorial. I am always apprehensive to add zippers to anything as I am not a sewer so I like that a liner doesn’t need to be added and can be sewn directly onto to crochet. You are always easy to follow and now I am going to give it a go. Thank you 😊

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

I'm so glad this is helpful for you! Thank you for letting me know.

This was my first time sewing in a zipper. I always thought it would be difficult but your tutorial helped to see it was pretty easy. I have one suggestion regarding the thread. It would be very helpful to mention you double stranded the needle. I had to look very closely at the video and saw that you were.

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

Hi Lori. I'm so glad you found this helpful. I guess I assumed everybody double stranded with regular hand sewing. Oops. Thank you so much for bringing that to my attention.

[@marysusansaballa5317]

Just what i have been looking for. Thanks for sharing, Sylvia. This is very useful.

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

Excellent! I'm so glad you find this useful. Thank you for letting me know!

[@barbd9887]

I love this, I have always felt like you did that they are decorative pillows and don’t need a lot of washing but, I’ve always wondered if I could sew a zipper in but just never tried it before. I will be trying it now following your direction! Thank you!

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

Yay! I'm so happy this is helpful to you. Thank you for letting me know.

Thank you. You make it look so easy. Could you provide me with the link for your pillow cover pattern please.

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

I'm glad you found this useful. Right at the beginning of the video I give a couple of ways you can find the pillow cover pattern. Here is a third: crazycoolcrochet.com/crochet-waffle-stitch-pillow-free-pattern/

Would it be a bad idea to see the e zipper on with my sewing machine? Or do you think it’s best to do it by hand?

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

I wouldn't do this with a sewing machine because I believe the yarn would get squashed and flattened. I picture the stitches being too tight and "heavy handed". I used to sew quite a bit so I can imagine the outcome. With hand sewing you can control this better.
