I swear when you explained "the hook knows where to go" my brain went "omg shes the bob ross of crochet"..lol..I love it,thank you for sharing your talent
Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial. Very clear and easy to follow. My 94 yr old Grandma absolutely loves them. She said her fingers are warm when she sleeps for the first time in years!
This is an awesome tutorial. Easy to follow and I managed it first try. Would love to see one with the flat palm. I feel like the less bulk will make them more practical for me.
My oldest loves all things dragon and almost never asks me to make them anything, you have made it so that I can finally make them and make my child giddy with happiness 😊
Your tutorial is perfectly clear and easy to follow especially for those of us who are dyslexic I could never follow a pattern my brain can’t deal with the letters and numbers. I do by following instructions and seeing. Thank you so much.
Thats interesting. My dyslexic brain likes the written patterns more lol. I almost always have to write my own pattern while watching videos like this for me to be able to make the project.
@@sydnicasanover dysgraphia it makes copying notes not so simple or easy dab in a bit of the number mix ups you know where you have all the correct numbers but they aren’t in the correct order… to be fair I like bookkeeping it’s a challenge to see if the totals balance.
So awesome! I just started and grabbed a random skein to practice. Ended up looking like Rose. Used a 5.25mm on "normal" sized yarn. I'm a dude and it was kinda loose on me so gonna order smaller hooks.
Thank you for a gorgeous tutorial it’s awesome & fantabulous you have a beautiful voice and explain things so clearly and simply it is so much fun and such a terrific tutorial I really appreciate your kindness you are inspiring
I looked at so many videos for this pattern and could not understand it. Thus video is the only one I could understand and with practice, finish. Thank you so much for creating this tutorial ❤
What an amazing tutorial. Watching it at first, I thought I may not be able to do it, but once I started, it was such an easy flow because your teaching method is exceptional. I am really happy with what I achieved because of your great teaching skills. Thank you. Love from Melbourne❤
What an awesome pattern! Thank you for sharing. I love these kinds of projects- they look so hard but are deceivingly easy. It makes me look like a magician. :)
I love this tutorial! Thank you so much. The one thing is that the inside of the hand is most often just flat stitches (whatever stitch), otherwise it gets very bulky and you’ll have trouble grabbing things or the pattern gets stuck on something when inside the hand.
Psychedelic Doilies Thank you for responding. I modified your pattern by chaining 20 and 4 rows of scales instead of 5. It worked well! I’d love to send you a pic.
@@mindythompson8980 I'd love for you to share in my Facebook group. There is a photo album for finished dragon gloves. facebook.com/groups/psychedelicdoiliesblog/
I have read all the comments to this video..all high praise! Would it be possible for you to do a tutorial without the scales on the palm area? I find it a little to bulky for my hands. I love your clear and decisive tutorial! I am a Newbie to your channel! With Love! Peace Out!🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💛💛💛💛💛💛😍😍😍😍
I'm very much a beginner but I was able to follow this very well. I do have a question. Is there a way to modify it so the palms would be flatter (like all double crochet) and then the scales be on the backs of the hands? Like I said, I'm definitely a beginner and not quite sure how to modify it or if it can be done.
So I bought the pattern for the flat palm version of this, but I am still super new to crochet pattern reading and it looks really foreign to me. I understood watching this tutorial way better. Is there anyway that you'd be willing to make a tutorial for the flat palm or at least the part that it differs?
I really love this tutorial! It's very thorough and clear to follow and understand. Now I have already pulled out 10 rows...🤣🤣 because I'm working on end of the 6th row ABOVE the thumb hole going into the 7th row. I had 10 more rows that I pulled out because I don't know what I'm doing wrong but my glove keeps growing and not getting thinner around my wrist and my forearm. I am more than happy to send pictures of three different angles of anyone is able to help me. I definitely want to finish this glove and do it right so I can make more in the future. Please help!
@@marinaevt3567 im sure i followed the instructions to the letter but found the arm bit was far too wide. im going to take back to where the granny part starts and go from a hook size 5 to a hook 4 and have my fingers crossed that this makes arm tighter. any suggestions welcomed. thankyou.
Here's a tip for the foundation row, in the one after the scale, put your finger in the hole and put your hook in if you can feel your hook then it's correct if your having trouble with not being Bob Ross of crochet
Do you have the ability to do a tutorial of this with no scales on the palms? I want to make these to use at work during the winter but the scales on the palms make it hard to type... Any ideas?
Is the dragon scale part supposed to be confusing? I'm left handed and looking at it right handed might be throwing me off, any tips would be appreciated, love the pattern so far though, thanks!
great tutorial I got 6 dragon scales on the 1st 5 rows but only 5 scales on the next 2 rows you mentioned 6 scales on the last row am I missing something
do you have a video for dragon scale gloves for a three-year-old. Or can you help with an adapting size, please? Basically I need to know how many stitches to start the chain.
Can I ask if there is a scale missing in row 15? Just before the thumb space before the 10 x db crochet theres a V stitch in the row below which looks like it needs a scale?
Other tutorials on the crocodile stitch aren't quite the same, but i love this pattern. Would anyone know what the stitch math for this is so it could be used for other patterns? I've seen some that say starting is 6 + 3 or 6 + 4, but they had two chains between V stitch and single dc. Or they didn't do V stitch. I'm bad at math 😅
Hey, I’m working a second pair with thinner yarn, already recalculated and did a scale more in the round, started with a chain of 28. But I can’t seem to figure out how to make a bigger thumbwhole to come out nice and big enough, I come out wrong every time and the glove still is to tight. Can you help me? Ty for the tutorial LOVE the Gloves
I added the chain one between the five and five on the scale as suggested, it does make them more pointy scales similar to others I’ve tried by Crystal on bag o day crochet. She has some with the scales only on the back which were great for me but OH wanted full scales this time x
Great pattern! But I must have very small hands bc these will fit a man. I only did 4 dragon scale rows and 8 granny stitch rows. It was almost to my elbow 😂. Maybe a smaller hook in the future.
I don’t know if this is on the pattern or not but I made the first clove and the thumb hole machetes with my right hand but not the left is there a way to fix that or is that just what happens?
I also noticed this. I thought maybe someone might have had the answer in the comments but they are meant to be for both hands .. but I am having the same issue. The area around the thumb seems to be only matched for the right
I tried making dragon scales from another video but they were thick and curled up and I felt like I had 2 left hands. Ripped out all my work and followed this video and they're perfect. Had to start and stop the video several times but once I saw how she does them I was on my way. Also, I've been crocheting easily 50y but never anything complex.
My question is… I can’t increase my yarn hook other wise the stitches will be janky and loose… what is your solution to this? Is there any way we can increase the pattern by? Having a way for people to measure how many more stitches it will take for this glove to actually fit can go a super long way.
Small things. I havn't gotten all the way through yet. Example: after chasing 24 and slip stitching, you say to chain 1 before starting row 1. This isn't in the pattern. Also at the end of row 2 in the video you say to slip stitch but that's not in the pattern either.
Just finished one glove. We will call it a practice glove as its pretty but a little roomy. Going to tighten my guage & start a new pair. Thank you for this easy & excellent tutorial!
This is brilliant, I just wat to use the yarn I already have and the 24 stitch count is too tight for me, if I wanted to increase the count of stitches in the initial chain it would go in multiples of 4 or 6? Thanks.
First off I like to say thank you for the stitch tutorial but the pattern needs lots of work. The first time I made a glove it was way too big for a "medium" I had to tweek it so much. I left out the chains in between the v and post stitch round (foundation) and it contours to the hand so much better. Unfortunately ripping out the pattern several times was really inconvenient especially with the fibrous yarn I'm using snags a lot when removing the work.
First off thanks for the pattern, really cute. I will agree with this person that it is not a medium size. My hands are large and it fits pretty good. Secondly it is not for any worst weighted yarn, hook and yarn must match. I made this not thinking I will have to modify for the opposite hand. I really shouldn't admit this found it funny. Anyhow lesson learned and had alot of funlearning the stitch. So not al lwas wasted. thanks.
I hold my yarn any looser and I won’t be holding it used same yarn practically the same hook and this is coming out as a toddler sized glove… I’ve never had to pick a bigger hook so I don’t understand what I’m doing so wrong
So I have made one of these, the tutorial is sooo easy to follow! I’ve only been crocheting for 2 weeks now. Just a quick question, when I get to the granny’s stitches it seems to make the arm hole area very baggy, is there a way to keep it all tight or do i just need to do the sc row tighter?

I whipped a pair of these out in literally 3 days on my first time trying, thank you so much 💘
How much yarn was needed please
My favorite pattern and my best selling finished item.
Lion brand ferris wheel yarn yields a beautifully matched pair

This was so well done. I've made these before from a paper pattern but it was confusing. Your tutorial was so clear and easy. Thank you!
I made these for all the women in my family. Thank you for the tutorial.
Amazing! Thank you for the easy to follow demonstration. These gloves are gorgeous. My granddaughters will love them.
My pleasure! I'd love to see your gloves when you're finished!
How might you adjust the pattern for a pre-teen?
@@mindythompson8980 Currently the best option is to go down a hook size. But I'm planning on writing a version of the gloves for children next year!

24 chain to small do we chain an even number to make bigger glove

Does any know it this would work if I use a more plush yarn. It’s still a number 4, yarn

I can't wait to make these !!! ❤❤❤❤ Thankyou so much for this wonderful tutorial!
thank you so much for this video I would not have been able to do this project without your help.
thanks again
So looking forward to trying this out!! Can I just check, Will one skein of yarn (322 yards) be enough for both gloves??
So I used a skein of yarn with 201 yds and I have a little left but I only did 4 rows of the grannys
This is so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much - your tutorial is fantastic and Ive made something I didnt think Id be able to
Thanks for the turtorial, I started this last night and just finished my first glove, the video was easy to follow and I love the way it turns out.
Amazing tutorial! I am no beginner but maaaan these are not the easiest thing to make.
Here's a tip for the foundation row, in the one after the scale, put your finger in the hole and put your hook in if you can feel your hook then it's correct if your having trouble with not being Bob Ross of crochet

About how much yarn did you use per glove?
great tutorial I got 6 dragon scales on the 1st 5 rows but only 5 scales on the next 2 rows you mentioned 6 scales on the last row am I missing something
These are adorable and so easy to make,, you are easy to follow. Thanks
Making these in a black and greyscale transition color for my son's dragon costume and making them go all the way to the elbows, thx!
How do you do the second glove so the space under the thumb sits on you palm instead of the back of your hand?
What is the previous stitching from the photo for this tutorial? It’s beautiful! I like how the dragon stitch shows up when it reaches the hand.
For the thumb hole with thin yarn I did 10 chains
Lovely pattern! Thank you so much!
Is there any reason you couldn't continue the dragon scales down the forearm too?
do you have a video for dragon scale gloves for a three-year-old. Or can you help with an adapting size, please? Basically I need to know how many stitches to start the chain.
Amazing and you explained everything beautifully I love it ❤
Can I ask if there is a scale missing in row 15? Just before the thumb space before the 10 x db crochet theres a V stitch in the row below which looks like it needs a scale?
You do reduce by one scale to accommodate the thumb hole. Most rows have 6 scales but for the thumb row there are 5 scales.
Other tutorials on the crocodile stitch aren't quite the same, but i love this pattern. Would anyone know what the stitch math for this is so it could be used for other patterns? I've seen some that say starting is 6 + 3 or 6 + 4, but they had two chains between V stitch and single dc. Or they didn't do V stitch. I'm bad at math 😅
I bought the pattern and I think it would be extremely helpful to have the total stitch for row 17.
The video does not match the written pattern on the website. Very confusing.
I'm having the same issue, idk how to proceed so I'm just following mostly her since it's easier for me
Will 1 skein of Red Heart Unforgettable be enough to make both gloves?
Thank you so much for such an amazing tutorial. But my gloves became loose from the wrist. How can I fix this?
Easy to follow along I do best by being shown then doing. So this video helps alot
Hey, I’m working a second pair with thinner yarn, already recalculated and did a scale more in the round, started with a chain of 28. But I can’t seem to figure out how to make a bigger thumbwhole to come out nice and big enough, I come out wrong every time and the glove still is to tight.
Can you help me?
Ty for the tutorial LOVE the Gloves
To make your thumb hole bigger you'll need to chain more than the recommended 6 chain for the original pattern.
Thanks for ez to understand instructions. Beautiful pattern
Hi, is there any chance you have a dragon mittens pattern or video?
I love this design so much. Can you plz tell me how much grams of wool you use for this design.
222yards
Does it have to be an even number? Or a multiple of 4? Or 6? 😅
Thank you SO MUCH! Your instructions are perfect!😊
My scales are more rounded and look like frills any idea what I'm doing wrong? Btw love the pattern and instructions
I just found this tutorial and love it. My scales look like ruffles though. What am I doing wrong?
I added the chain one between the five and five on the scale as suggested, it does make them more pointy scales similar to others I’ve tried by Crystal on bag o day crochet. She has some with the scales only on the back which were great for me but OH wanted full scales this time x
Thank you so much for this EXCELLENT VIDEO and your explanation. I have got lost before, but you have explained this so perfectly xxx
I'm so glad it helped!
is it possible to do this pattern but not as gloves? I mean what if I want to use this pattern but not with joined rounds
Great pattern! But I must have very small hands bc these will fit a man. I only did 4 dragon scale rows and 8 granny stitch rows. It was almost to my elbow 😂. Maybe a smaller hook in the future.
I made some and they're so nice!! Heck yeah!

Super tutorial❤️❤️❤️👌👌👌Thank you 💕💕💕
If u add 6 chain with the 24 chain do u do the v and then chain 2 and dc
How do you get the scales to lay down

Okay, I made the right glove but how do i alter it to work for the left hand?
They're worked exactly the same!
The pattern from your website doesn't match up with the video. There are some small steps missing. Just a heads up :) wonderful tutorial
Could you let me know more? Thanks!
Small things. I havn't gotten all the way through yet. Example: after chasing 24 and slip stitching, you say to chain 1 before starting row 1. This isn't in the pattern. Also at the end of row 2 in the video you say to slip stitch but that's not in the pattern either.

Disculpa lo quiero hacer con un estambre del número 1 cómo puedo modificarlo para el dedo en vez de 6 le puedo poner a 10 puntos por favor
So I have made one of these, the tutorial is sooo easy to follow! I’ve only been crocheting for 2 weeks now. Just a quick question, when I get to the granny’s stitches it seems to make the arm hole area very baggy, is there a way to keep it all tight or do i just need to do the sc row tighter?
This is inaccurate
you could probably gather it at the end
For me I changed the first row of granny stitches.
gs = granny stitch
I did:
first gs, skip 1, gs, skip 1, gs, skip 2, gs, skip 2, gs, skip 2, gs, skip 2, gs, skip 1, gs, skip 1
Would doing a foundation single crochet work w/ this pattern
It's not necessary except for the two rows where indicated.
Psychedelic Doilies thanks!
How much yarn do I buy for 1pair?
Great video
Beautiful 🥰 please tell the price
Worked perfectly
Thank you for this video!! Already purchased the pattern and this will assist me well. Now... to go shopping for yarn, bwahahaha
Hope it helps!
I made it today ..... Thanku
