You really should try a magnifying glass/lamp. It’s the only way I do small stitch work. Stops the eye strain! 👁️💕🥰

[@Lodrelhai]

Seconding his. I just got a magnifier headset with a lamp, and it has made thread crochet so much easier!

[@maryannraley]

I would have long since lost my mind at the 4th stitch. That said, I have two suggestions. First, if you use the wire "lightbulb" stitch markers, they won't distort your work as badly. Second, when you have a terribly fiddley start like this, work it with larger yarn and beads so you can see what you're doing. When you figure it out, go back and do the work with your thread. (I did that when I was learning to knit socks.) And fooie on your "follow the pattern exactly" detractors! It's your channel; you do you.

[@SusieQ3]

I do the larger yarn thing, too when working something new or fiddly. Also, I agree completely, there's no need for her to stick to the pattern exactly as written, especially when in this period, they weren't written with exact instructions.

[@scarlettohara5039]

I completely agree, if somebody who's done a lot of lace work in the round you need the little pear-shaped safety pins, they are the only efficient way to mark a project that tiny.

[@melinaalba63]

I've realized that lately you really think a lot about what your viewers will think of any decision you make. But i think its important, that its ultimately your channel and your content, you do it for fun and maybe money, idk, but its YOUR work. You get to decide these things and i think most of your viewers wont mind, and those that do can just watch a different video :) With any choice there are people who will want one thing and some who want another thing. Maybe some want you to follow the pattern, but maybe also some want you to make it easier visible for us and easier for you, they like you changing things to fit the video better.

[@jillschimpf1605]

I agree 1000%!!!! Your channel, your decisions, your way of creating. ❤❤❤

[@gingerfoxx1476]

I think the modern changes made only make these patterns more accessible to a wider audience of eager crocheters looking to bring the essence of them to life in the present day.

[@kararabone7313]

I completely agree she made the rules, so they are hers to break ❤

[@fey_wolf6309]

yup, I agree! Thinking about what the others will say only brings anxiety and distraction because you can't cater to everyone's tastes at once! Those who aren't satisfied can click away and watch something else, but in the end it's you and only you behind the creative process, and you don't have to answer to anyone but yourself. The audience is a shifting entity - some may become dissatisfied and leave, others will come, and those who will stay are the ones the most comfortable with you being you, so don't worry! We're here for your unique methods, touches and struggles.

[@Jordan-ux3ps]

Couldn't agree more! We just want you to do what you do.

[@sidmelucci3675]

I Googled "EE purse twist thread" and lucked out on my first hit! A blog called PatternsAlaCarte (hosted on blogspot) had a September 4, 2008, post titled "So what IS purse twist anyway?" The money quote is "From studying the antique beaded purses I determined that most of the bead crochet and bead knitting was done with thread about equal to size 8 DMC perle cotton." So, now we know!

[@SusieQ3]

Awesome! Thanks for the information ❤

[@ThereseMamaT-xh6hy]

Hi Corrina! This is similar to what my Mom had, and it was sized to fit her face powder compact. Of course, it did not have a clasp, just the opening sized enough to slip the compact in.

[@AlisonCrook-qg8hc]

I am in awe of you Corrina. The patience of a Saint and the talent of a master.

[@beckstheimpatient4135]

You play Fallout?! That's so cool! That said, even though eyesight does get worse with age, please take care. If you need glasses, please get them and WEAR them. I know a lot of people not born with eye defects tend to not take their glasses seriously, especially when they're perceived as a sign of old age, but your eyes will thank you and it should slow down any degeneration 💜 Stay safe and rest after this chaotic project. PS: as I'm watching you undo this one multiple times, I am also AGAIN undoing some rows in my project 🤣

[@SusieQ3]

Yes! Please take care of your eyes!

[@tasteofoxidation]

Just a little british/american culture difference, that being a british pattern, a purse for us is always what you would call a coin purse, I know you would call the bag that you carry your essentials in your purse, to us, that's a handbag. So you're absolutely correct in thinking it's a coin purse!

[@Bethabara9]

I loved it. I apologize for laughing hysterically at the beginning and want you to know, if it had been me....Id still be picking up beads because I would have just thrown it away, haha

[@kirstyloschiavo6274]

Argh these always drop at crazy hours of the morning for me in australia, but I cannot resist, I must watch! Sleep is for the weak lol

[@eileenhildreth8355]

It's a present when I wake up in nz, this dropped at 4am our time

[@melodied4314]

I've never crocheted with beads and I probably never will, but it's fun and interesting to watch you create with beads.😊

[@SusieQ3]

The closest I get is adding triangle beads to crew socks for my daughters. Nothing this fine, but incredibly fun.

[@jodiherfendal]

I use the tiny gold safety pins for markers on fine thread crochet.

[@mrsbrekke1]

Corinna you need to just do what you want! If people are going to be that ridiculous that they need to get mad at you then they can look at the pattern and make it themselves! Please don't worry about the few who are Debbie downers. Worry about the many who love you just the way you are! Changing patterns and all!

[@kararabone7313]

Honestly you have so much patience I would have counted how many stitches the 2nd round has and skip the first one

[@krazedvintagemodel]

Other perspectives is why I love this channel! May not have occurred to me before, but now I know what to try if I'm ever to do this!? Peace 🧶📿🧵

[@Rauh-667]

Was für ein hübsches Taschen Set. Wenn ich mal Zeit hab versuche ich das mit blau/gold oder blau/silber, denke ich! Danke für diese außergewöhnlichen Arbeiten, echt klasse!

[@chriscavy]

I love the idea of Mister Merlin being naughty while you're filming 🤣 He's so adorable!!

[@justvintagecrochet]

😁

[@gingerfoxx1476]

I love my crochet KZbin friends' fur babies. They all remind me of my own. Whenever I hear Merlin's name mentioned, I always think of Sarah's pet sheepdog in the Jim Henson film Labyrinth. He was a good pupper too.

[@WinkTartanBelle]

When marking stitches in something this small, I use contrasting sewing thread tied in very loosely. I can cut and pick itout later with tweezers or a seam ripper. My grandmother used a horsehair!

[@singingsparrow83]

What a great piece of " horsesmarts " for your grandmother to pass on. 💥❤🙂

[@gingerfoxx1476]

As someone who's had poor eyesight my entire life, I can totally relate to your frustration about not being able to see. It's why i don't work with thread. I admire your persistence and patience with yourself throughout these processes. I feel like your daily positive affirmation should be "Today, I can do the difficult thing and grow because of it. " Keep stitching, like the crochet warrior you are.

[@carolwolf2083]

Who are these "Crochet Police"? Phooey on them!😄

[@DanasWanderlustCrochet]

I'm convinced that even though it starts with a ring, the pattern was meant to be worked in rows. Many shawls are worked that way. This is why the increase is done the same all the way through. 😂 I love watching you!

[@devils.advocate2354]

36:52 🐾🐾 no beads shall be missed… Merlin the quality inspector 🧡 appreciate you as always ma’am

[@zangetsu284]

You can do it! Just have patience with yourself, but also it's your channel and your hands, you do what's best for your spirit!

[@dianechicklo7961]

So cute

[@marionbartley214]

Hello Corrina, I so appreciate the work you do. Heaven's knows I can't do any of it because of my eyesight. But I can appreciate everything you do. With that being said, girlfriend don't be afraid to deviate from the pattern. You do it how it works for you. It still will be close enough to whatever it is you're making just your spin on it. It's just like a quilting we have a pattern sometimes. We can deviate from it and make it our own. The quilt police are not going to come and slap our hands. It's the same here Just make the decision to make it work for you and don't worry about what any of the rest of us think about it. I don't think I anybody under these circumstances. Is going to say " Corrina You didn't even try to follow the pattern" Because we all know you try your very best to do that. Just make more stitches to make it work for you it's really is okay. I hope you're not offended by me saying that because sometimes that's just what you got to do.

[@eileenhildreth8355]

Even with a magnifier and my reading glasses i couldnt work that fine, in awe of your patience and skill

[@dare-67]

You should never apologize for doing something different than what the pattern says. You are giving us a gift. You have such a large following because we all enjoy it. That's why we're here. We can't do what you do. And we appreciate all your hard work. 💞

[@justvintagecrochet]

Thank you so much!

[@dorothylavell3038]

You are a legend 🙌 you do what works for you😊❤️🇦🇺✨️

[@cassiejohnson9410]

I just noticed it kind of has the blue and black or white gold dress effect! the white side looks silver and white and the red looks red and gold! super cool!

[@JenniferKing-ij3yx]

Maybe you could use different colour beads, or somehow thread a piece of different coloured cotton thread on each bead, just a suggestion, you are very clever with your hands. Cheers jenni from Australia.

[@MaryJones-sg7pu]

It is such a joy to watch you crochet, you are very skilled. So many others are limited in their skills and i applaud them for what they do but you bring so much more. I have learned so much from you. Thank you.

[@lorriewhite7886]

I love, love, love beaded patterns! I can’t wait to see what this is.

[@michellebruton6287]

Oh my soul, that is tiny work, I have broken out in a sweat on your behalf..... and I've only watched like 2 minutes 😓😓 It turned out gorjussss ... so cute ... well done doll !!!

[@eileenlynch6896]

What a beautiful little purse ..perfectly matches your beaded bag. Amazing job once again Corrinaxx

[@themaddtatter6679]

❤❤❤ looks like a beaded pokeball 😂❤ I love it

[@doninis1354]

This might be a reason why I back out from working with beads 😉 I love your patient, again.

[@carolday3381]

Man this is just so cool. This technique of beaded crochet,.. i am thinking i could actualy dress up a shirt or dress collar or cuffs or hems with this technique. A couple rounds of chain then bead then chain to finish off would make a cool edging detail. Now how to start it on the fabric edge ing i guess a person would use the crochet thread and sew a line along the edge and then treat that as the beginning stitch edges for crocheting. This is so cool!! What a bunch of ideas i am getting from watching these videos. I dont need a coin purse but i would like to jazz up my clothes a bit. So awesome! Ooh an edge on curtain sheers., adds some weight to hang better.

[@k8tallison250]

Happy Tuesday crochet peeps!

[@karenalbery2773]

Oh my goodness. I need to go make a super bulky granny square after watching this!!

[@robinanderson724]

You are wonderful at working with thread! My hands and fingers just don’t cooperate for me to handle this type of thread. I usually have to double it. Beautiful!

[@ace-ug7jc]

ahhhh I'm so excited to watch. I love bead crochet

[@Teerae11]

You are Amazing again !! This was really hard at beginning , but you figured it out !! It's very cute , Thank You for another great video 📷 !! ❤ It !!

[@judygiesbrecht8297]

Love the coin purse. ❤🇨🇦

[@YalaHernandez]

For eye fatigue, you can try relaxing the eyes from time to time by looking far from where you are for a little bit. Also using good and enough light to knit/crochet makes a difference too. Love your videos ❤❤

[@deb.m.7458]

How beautiful❤ love both purses. A nice change from fast fashion.

[@lorriewhite7886]

Corinna great job! I would love to see you do a beaded Beret. I love your bead work. Take a break for your eyes sake. I have the same problem.

[@shebangsdrums5601]

I really love this. You have so much crochet knowledge that I trust when you change a pattern, it's out of necessity and experience.

[@ReallyJillRogoff]

Cute money purse. And I love your fleur de lis casino bag. Am really sorry to hear about your eyes. Let them rest sometimes. ❤

[@judyeng9822]

Lovely!! I love the Victorian era! So pretty!

[@miketa87]

Very cute coin purse!!

[@joanneentwistle7653]

Lovely matching set! I want to get into crocheting with beads as well. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@rinarose9544]

Man, this reminds me of a cap my mom knitted for me when I was an infant. She had to cast on 3 stitches and distribute them on 3 double-pointed needles - one stitch on each. I have no idea how she didn't lose her mind.

[@Troutay]

Lovely! I love the work so much! Hearts back to you!

[@karmagal78]

I think it’s cute

[@debbiehannah4817]

So pretty! Well done, I wouldn’t have managed it at all. You’re a genius

[@dollylove237]

Thank you for showing the struggle. I thought it was just me.

[@Pammy_Yolo]

I don't know how you do it?! Me: I would start with 6. You a sec later: I'm just going to start with 6 😂❤ Your nails are gorgeous ❤

[@justvintagecrochet]

😊 thank you

[@corvidsam]

I would’ve rage quit at trying the 3 stitches to begin, so 100% okay with the rewrite 😅 I’ve never tried using crochet thread, and with how annoyed I got working into chains with a worsted weight yarn, I’m just impressed when you work with thread at all!

[@tamielip2499]

Can I suggest to use your "red" color as a row marker, instead of plastic marker.

[@bobbiedwards4441]

First - I love watching your videos! Second - Do you have any magnifying glasses with an led light? I cross stitch with beads on 32 count and let me tell you the stitches are sooooooooo small and I had to go out and buy a magnifying glasses. If I do not want to wear my glasses I do have magnifying lamp that I used for my cross stitch but that is expensive. As a side note if you can get glass its less likely to get scratches. I am new to your channel but I have decided to buy the red beaded purse pattern from your Esty shop to give it a try! I love it when you hit a road block with these older patterns because you can tell that you are very experience at crocheting! Anyway, please keep up doing videos I love them!

[@justvintagecrochet]

None with a light , but I do have a table top magnifying glass with a light ( just can't film with it lol) , but I did get prescribed some glasses the other day, just waiting 'till Friday for them to be ready, Im very happy about that :)

[@michellelystad324]

I just found your channel and I ❤it!! Nobody will be mad at you. I think everybody is happy that you got it figured out!

[@michellelystad324]

And, I definitely agree with the little steel light bulb stitch markers. They would be perfect for this.

[@Reiki19607]

Nice. Always loved beaded purses

[@lokilokason]

What a cute pattern! I really like the red/gold contrast. Looks like that colour of red is called Garnet, by the way!

[@roxann_bam]

Hello Corrina, DMC 816 is Garnet. It's one of my favorites, and it's the accessories color in my kitchen. Your work amazes me. Awesome job.

[@Harkart59]

I just love these types of things. Really enjoyed this a lot! Thank you😄

[@speedingpullet7400]

I love you're a Fallout fan! Never played 76 but I've played FO3 about a gazillion times 😁

[@erikagholston6610]

It turned into a cute coin purse.

[@ky9805]

Try a safety pin as stitch marker. I work with plarn, so tweeking a pattern is necessary. If that fails, frog 🐸 it and try again. Your work is fabulous. Love it!!

[@marywrigjt7614]

That’s really cute👍👍❤️.

[@alittlelessconversation]

So so pretty.

[@Core10knee]

You can always use that red yarn as a stitch marker and just feed it up as you go. That's always the easiest for me with a continuous circle instead of having to clip and unclip stitch markers.

[@debrablanson2288]

That turned out great 🎉

[@Hippiechick11]

I love this. You could do a nevk on it with a draw string if you don't want a purse top. And I hope things go well with your eye Doctor. I was diagnostics with low pressure glaucoma late last year. I understand eye fatigue because of that. But I'm 20 plus years older than you, so I hope things will go well for you.

[@Deborah10000]

Great job! Would love to see how to attach clasp to this lovely purse.

[@alisonmary1443]

Thank you for dealing with the bits that drive me nuts, you done a good work really like it. My eyes are not good with close up work (62) I wear full frame specs for seeing and a pair of close ups to see working mini things, optician was great to do this, so I am a speccy 6 eyes 🤭either that or I lay down tools, I'm not doing that 💖

[@BobCrochets]

I believe DMC 816 is Garnet (not that it matters too much if it's a DMC floss code. 😊)

[@misse-jensen]

Beautiful work ❤❤❤❤❤

[@ErinAnodea]

This is stinkin cute!

[@shirleydavis9176]

You’ve inspired me to try out beading! I love these mystery pattern videos ❤

[@gingerfoxx1476]

I was thinking the same thing. I'm wondering if I can accomplish it with fingering weight yarn and a coordinating size of bead. I definitely am inspired to challenge myself with beadwork. It's a beautiful facet of the art of crochet.

[@Tatsuemin]

Mistaking r and t, I can relate 😂. I have a little astigmatism and looking to bright things sometimes is just stressing. That is kind of my problem with metal crochet hooks, as I try to use them the light that shines on them kind of make a flare that makes it hard to keep looking at in a long run. Once I saw a picture that did show how people without and with astigmatism see lights and it really makes a difference. Light and thin stuff will always get messy to see. The last time I did have glasses made on it was around 0,25 (degrees? I don't know how to say this in English) now it is probably more but making new glasses is hard when you need to rely on other people to pay for them. The pouch would look pretty with some filet and a bit of a decorative frill on top and a strap to close.

[@donnazimmer1121]

That’s cool! ❤😊

[@SawsanZoughaib-xs2fo]

Lovely

[@effieboo9275]

To do thread/ micro work I bought a pack of metal lightbulb stitch markers. They were like 6$ on Amazon.

[@lisette1580]

Wunderful purse! Great job. Have fun in the casino 😉

[@dianechicklo7961]

WOW

[@robinmarks5638]

Cute!

[@kim030927]

You could use a piece of thread for a stitch marker in the beginning of this.

[@constanza1648]

When marking stitches is difficult for me, I prefer to use a thread of a different color. It is handy and less bulky!

[@susanrussell8195]

This reminds me of trying to crochet a beaded ornament. Let’s just say it has not been completed. I kept saying if I could just get it started it would be fine. The patience of Job.

[@ZimVader-0017]

Ooh. OOH! At about 1:36 in the video, you can make out what the blacked out word is! 😆 But shhhh! 🤫 There's this giant magnifying glass you can wear around your neck. It's usually sold for cross stitch and embroidery, but I'm seriously considering it for when I use crochet thread. I'm very near sighted and sometimes can't really see what I'm doing, even with my glasses. One time, I noticed my mother looking at me oddly, and it was because I was holding the project very close to my face 😂

[@samtyers8236]

I couldn't do it, I have the memory of gnat since my stroke on the 7th of April. Also, I'm waiting for my new glasses to be ready

[@justvintagecrochet]

I am sorry to hear that, I am so happy that you are here and I would like to pray for you if that's ok with you

[@g.cosper8306]

Keep working at getting better! My mother wasn't expected to ever leave her recovery facility (couldn't walk or feed herself) but within a year she was back to junking, cooking, even traveling alone.

[@yanibentley1411]

Try using a contrasting thread instead of the plastic marker

[@RealMelodyBlue]

This got me watching videos on beaded crochet.😂

[@leereadman9940]

great thankyou

[@pattyboganwright5558]

Would love to know what book this one is love old patterns..and foundation patterns

[@debirobison4077]

You should have used your markers from hook and needle.. they are smaller and easier to work with on thread

[@polythenepam3236]

DMC 816 is garnet

[@lavenderrainbow5041]

Maybe I missed it...and I'm not being picky here but were you going to add the 'festoons of beads' to the bottom of the purse? I'm not sure if you decided on being fancy with it :) BTW - your last 'beaded' purse video, I believe it was marked the 'Long purse' inspired me to try beaded crochet. I hunted & I hunted & I hunted in my stash for beads but could only find larger round beads. Much bigger than the seed beads. So, I have to work with what I have so it will be made with....I'm hoping...cotton yarn. Not the dish rag cotton but the Softee Baby cotton or what I have left of my Gazzal cotton yarn. Ooooo! luxury bigger beaded purse to evolve soon xxx

[@NirmalaWanigasekera]

can you explain how you put the beads on the thread. i didn't get that part.thanks

[@madammimm]

If you pull your tail through the begining stitch that mark it for you then your not using anything too bulky when you start 🙂

[@gingerfoxx1476]

I love all the insights I get from other commenters. I learn many cool tips and tricks. I wish we had a social platform to be able to support and help one another learn how to solve these challenging patterns.

[@codenameg-fox2251]

what a nightmare of a start!

[@effieboo9275]

How do you add more beads if you run out?
