You went above and beyond any other videos I have watched on making cords and I have watched and tried many of them. This is the best lesson so far. Clear and concise. Thank you so much for the detailed information on making 4 different items. Please ignore the person who complained. There is no excuse for such rudeness.

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a sweet comment! :)

[@annaraezehrung3721]

I was watching how to make a cord. It's like a slip stitch doubled. How you made this cord. If you have please demonstrate how to start then make the cord

[@denise2765]

Wow! Very informative. I am new to crochet and the education on the anatomy of a crochet stitch will be invaluable for my growth moving forward, I'm sure. The cords are great too. Your instruction is so detailed I feel I can determine which cord type is appropriate for which project. Thank you so very much!

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

Wow thank you so much for this sweet comment, it made my day! :) Welcome to the lovely world of crochet! x

[@TheSuzberry]

Your tour of the single crochet stitch is inspired! I’ve been crocheting for Decades and never understood the crochet stitch before this. Thank You

[@elizabethcoppin9872]

Thank you for being very patient and carefully identifying each part of the crochet stitch. Great job.

[@emmacoepoulsen7693]

The MOST HELPFUL VIDEO!!! Cords are my nemeses, but you broke them each down perfectly. Thank you!!!

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

Ahh thank you that makes me so happy!

[@lourdesespinas9103]

Thank you for explaining everything. From the anatomy of the single crochet to how the cords are done. Best tutorial ever. You are the best.

[@biophilly]

This is SO INCREDIBLY HELPFUL! I have been struggling to identify and find the "third loop" or "horizontal bar" for single crochets for SO LONG. I just lose it every time. This entire week I've had to remind myself to give tutorial makers grace because not everyone can approach things scientifically. Well, you are a stand out, and I am saving this video forever.

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

yay i'm so glad it was helpful for you! x

[@user-mg6rz9su7h]

This was by far the best video I watched to learn how to make cords. Showing the "anatomy" of the stitches was brilliant. Thank you so much for that. I enjoyed making a lanyard with the 3rd type.

[@jayjaysimonsen1332]

Thank you so much from Africa for all your detailed information and the wonderful explanation ! You are the best teacher!

[@tanyagil4457]

I just started learning crochet and found your video very helpful, thank you!

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

Thank you so much, I'm so glad to hear that!

[@jenniferjones5516]

Thank you very much. Watched your video really to understand the spiral one. Had tried a few times and could not get the hang of it. You really explain it well and will now go and do it - I hope!

[@patricelovell5067]

This is the best, best, best video for cords. Everyone should have this in their "how to" crochet library. It was truly a labor of love. Thank you for your hard work and for sharing your expertise.

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

thanks for taking the time to leave this thoughtful comment! happy new year :)

[@dc8514]

Fantastic detailed tutorial. Thank you!

[@maryammirza7119]

I have been following some tutorials on the KZbin since long but the basic details that this one gives are exceptional. I can safely say that this tutorial added to my basic knowledge . Thanks for the guidance

[@jamkad60]

Thank you for the super clear instructions, you’re amazing.

[@moniqueholford2005]

Thank you for posting this with the explanation of how the stich is formed and the different parts of the stick. Excellent!😀

[@alfonsomunot3026]

Really well explain, Im loving making my Agate Bucket bag straps now plus I feel more expert afther all the knowlege you shared. Thank you very much

[@paulamann6995]

Excellent Teacher! Excellent Tutorial! Thank you for the long-sought, much-needed clarification and analyses of the stitches and cords! Paula in Seattle in September 2021!

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

Thank you Paula, I'm so glad you found it helpful!

[@susanstaller1701]

You are fabulous. Extremely patient with your explanations of stitch structure. I'm definitely keeping this tutorial for future use. Thank you for your time and instruction. 🤩

[@rosemariezanfardino3769]

[@K9jerryleex]

This was the most amazing explanation of stitches. Thanks!!

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

The best and most helpful tutorial I’ve ever watched. You explain things so simply and perfectly....eg: magic ring. Omg how simple was that. Looking forward to watching more of your tutorials. This my first. Glad I found you.!!!! Thank you. 💖🤗👍👍

[@thirupthikab2175]

Mam I watched many videos to make handle for crochet wire bag, I couldn't learn, but your video is really ausm n clearly taught I understood n started working. Really hats off mam Thank you soooo much for this video

[@alexington7436]

This BY FAR the best Tutorial for this types of cords, especially the 4th one! Thank you so much for this very well explained and detailed Video. You're an excellent Teacher. Greetings and hugs from Germany 😍

[@karenb6791notakaren]

So well done, sister! 🧶😊

[@PatriceWalker]

Excellent instructional video. Thanks for sharing!

[@dktigress2k173]

Great instructions. Thank you.

[@samasonedderman]

Thank you so much. Stella

[@adrianaopris4543]

Best tutorial ever!

[@boerekostraditionalsafood628]

Without this detailed explanation I couldn't create a cord. Absolutely 💯 !!! Thank you so so much 💗 keep doing what you do for advance chrocheters do not explain this at all not by far.

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

Thank you so much :)

[@katerinavavrova8077]

Absolutely great video! I love it so much and I wish I would see it when I started! For my first time I had not really great written instructions and it took me ages to understand and I had to start from the beginning about 15 times 😁 now I know much more, but still have lots to learn and your absolutely great video helped me a lot! I just wanted you to know that there is another person who really appreciates your work. Huge thanks from Czech republic ❤️ P.S.: this is my first comment on youtube. Your video and explanation are so good that I want you to know

[@michellenash6802]

You’re a very good teacher!!! Ty for all of the explanations....I’ve not seen anyone explain it like you have!! (It would help if you could zoom in closer, use a lighter/brighter yarn, and increase your lighting. I watch A LOT of crochet tutorials/videos and those three things make a huge difference in being able to see and easily follow what is being taught/shown. ... just FYI.) 😊 thank you

[@yvetterobinson316]

Thank you so so much. Very helpful and again thank you

[@the1_grammy503]

Thank you!

[@bits-and-bobs]

What the hell is wrong with people? No one is forcing them to watch. Your tutorial is great! I know it's 2 years old, but i loved it! I can also zoom in, either on my phone or my laptop, if i want to see it all closer! Well done, keep it up ❤ new subscriber here 😊 oh and you don't talk too much and it's not boring 😉 the "bored" commentator is probably not into crocheting that much... if at all...😅

[@LaNoisette]

Trying to do the cord of the Agathe bucket bag! Not fun but thank you so much for this video because I was getting frustrated with the written pattern. À visual fixed my problem! 🖤 🖤 🖤

[@gertirox]

Thanks so much for your help 🙏

[@deborahweimer873]

Thank you Two of Wands! I've made a couple of your bags and was looking for strap samples since I don't really like what you put on the bag I'm trying to finish. Crochet is not my primary needle craft so seeing your video has really helped me decide which strap I want to use.

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

So happy to hear that, hope you enjoy the project!

[@karenlombardi8242]

Absolutely the best tutorial on cords! Every other video uses tiny cord and hooks, works too fast (show off 😂) and it’s impossible to see … I essentially gave up. My method of crochet or knitting is stitch identification first to better correct mistakes Now I’m ready to take on the last spiral rope. Thank you!

[@katherinegolightly271]

Great explainations!

[@caroleraddatz1306]

Very good video. Thank you. 😊

[@PrivateEye_007]

Very nicely explained🤩

[@camper14]

Thanks for your great tutorial. Don't seem to be able to concur the last one though. I will practice. Love how you teach will definitely subscribe and watch for more tutorials in the future. Going to brave up and try your knitting also. Thank you.

[@michellenash6802]

Just found you...you have beautiful items....ty for your tutorial!

[@rosaelinav8036]

Thank you so much 😊

[@marciabraga1111]

Thank you so much.

[@barbsdee3831]

This is an awesome tutorial and fantastic as a beginner like me, thank you so much for going into so much detail it’s much appreciated 😘

[@elaineelmer8167]

Great video, loads of great info. Thank you! Quick question: the wooden needle you used to point out stitches that looked like a very short knitting needle - what is that called? I was interested in looking for them online but didn't know what to search for. Thanks again, for sharing your time and expertise.

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

Thanks so much Elaine! Those are actually little bamboo marking pins :) Here is a link to the ones I have: amzn.to/3lLtQt0

[@judydennis4381]

Can you stuff the cord to keep it from stretching too much?

[@rlarviso]

Thank you for your hard work 😀 Please ignore idiot trolls 🤬

[@GladysFlemm]

Great!!

[@BlackbirdArtandDesign]

Anyone know what the last stitch is called? It's very pretty.

[@Radii0actiive]

how are you supposed to finish off the second cord?

[@brendabird6945]

How would you add a tassel?

[@dezbarton2513]

Ola

[@Hippie_Chick_11]

You are obviously a good teacher. Your voice instructions are almost enough! But, I literally cannot see your stitches. It would be helpful to do close-ups

[@user-dg7bw3jq2z]

ايه اللت والعجن ده

[@naziarana2865]

You choose the wrong color for demo, and you need to zoom in when describing the front loop and back loop. Not good

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

Whoa lol sorry this free video that I absolutely did not have to make nor did you have to watch is not up to your standards. I simply made this video to share a few techniques I didn’t see any other versions of on KZbin. If you’d like to figure these techniques out on your own bc my video isn’t good enough for you, go for it! This is the color I used for the project I was working on using this technique and therefore I used it for the video. It’s a neutral midtone and looks just fine to me. And unfortunately I don’t have any fancy camera or editing software to zoom in the picture. You can however easily do that from your own computer ma’am. By all means feel free to watch a different video that meets your requirements or invest in the time, equipment, and knowledge to make your own!

[@genovevafonseca4683]

Qué aburrido tutorial

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

sorry you feel that way lol no one is forcing you to watch it ;)

[@kinhcan97]

talked too much

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

No one is forcing you to watch my videos.
