The ultimate final boss of crochet and knitting

[@GaliciaBee]

🎮 ✨

[@Mori_oop]

As a crochet artist, this craft terrifies me and also interests me

[@motionless_horizon]

I knit and crochet, and now I’m attempting this.. I don’t think I’m ready for the final boss

[@RED-my9hl]

​@rainbowfranklin lol I was the opposite, knitting was easy but crochet was hard

[@gmrgamingrm]

I came from Daily Dose of Internet and despite the fact that I don't really have plans to learn how to this, watching you do the movements is so relaxing to me. I could watch videos like this for ages. I hope your channel continues to grow as more people take up the hobby!

[@mrdiazviera]

yup, same with me ...

[@GaliciaBee]

Thank you so much! Happy to have you here. ☺

[@nohsohhoe]

I'm literally going to take up this hobby n I'll be sure to mention you in the future when I document it .... Thank you allot

[@gmrgamingrm]

@@PrismaticCrafter I can't remember no. It would be around the same time this video was uploaded I think.

[@sarahcoletti6946]

My brain is finally starting to understand the movements. When I was younger I was SUPER into making friendship bracelets out of both Gimp and especially Embroidery Thread. In elementary school at recess I could make at least three. I feel like this is the upgraded version of that! What really gets me though is when you have fifty plus bobbins going at once! I'll have to learn slow and steady. Thank you so much again! 💖

[@GaliciaBee]

You’re going to LOVE bobbin lace! ❤️ We focus on just 4 bobbins at a time, so don’t let the number of bobbins used in a project intimidate you!

[@user-bd5xg2ux7t]

شكرا لك من اعماق قلبي كنت ابحثعن هذا الفن منذسنين طويلة

[@user-tq6ms4mk9x]

This is the first time I've ever seen this. Very Interesting!

[@annavanhoff1502]

I read an instructional book from my local library 10 or 15 years ago about bobbin lacemaking and wanted to try, but got hung up on what I could use for the bolster pillow because I was at a point in my life where I couldn’t invest in buying one, and I was really only aware of the one book on the subject. Seeing the incredible work in your shorts and this video is reawakening that urge. It is such an incredible art. ❤

[@GaliciaBee]

You just need a firm foam-like surface to work on! One of my moderators used a pool noodle as she got started! 🙌 my bolster pillow is a traditional pillow packed with straw. You can definitely make one at home. 😄

[@cherabulous8007]

Thank you for this. I did bobbin lace at the Fortress of Louisbourg as a teen many years ago. I bought a bobbin cushion and bobbins years ago but never did anything with it, as I was unsure where to even start. This is a starting place lol! I’ll have to see if I can even find my bobbins now lol

[@GaliciaBee]

Oh awesome! I hope you find your bobbins too! :)

[@jadecardona3123]

I plan on making all of my daughters clothing at some point so I’m going to learn this for whenever she has an idea for “that” dress ❤️

[@GaliciaBee]

That's so lovely! 🥰

[@urtiz]

This is some good asmr material

[@hanavesela5884]

Finally a tutorial easy to follow thanks

[@GaliciaBee]

I'm so glad you found it helpful! 😄 There is 1 more lesson in the series (#3) that I plan to post tomorrow! 😃

[@xxvenus_viperxx4826]

Really loving watching your tiktok lives! Cant wait to make some bobbin lace using your tutorials 😊!

Yay! Thank you! Keep me posted on your bobbin lace!

Found you on tiktok! Thanks for telling me about your channel!!

[@GaliciaBee]

Yay! Thanks for coming over here to see my tutorials! 😄

[@durindaau8085]

Thank you for this tutorial. I am considering trying this craft, but have some questions about bobbins for a beginner. I have seen long, short, straight, bulbs on the ends, and ones with beaded loops on the end. Which yep do you recommend for a beginner and how many bobbins would a beginner need? Thank you so much for any information.

[@GaliciaBee]

Heya! Depending which country you're in, you will have an easier time getting your hands on bobbins that are typically used in your area. 🙂 Bobbins vary by culture, location, type of lace being created, preference, etc. I mostly use Galician lace bobbins because I live in Galicia and they're easy to come by. I also prefer them for most work because they have a nice weight to them and help tension the thread.

[@jinxedblackcat4609]

I have problems with my hands . I'm thinking of starting with yarn first as it's easier for me to grab. Hopefully, it will be this pretty at the end

[@GaliciaBee]

The thicker the thread, the easier to see what you're doing, for sure! Best of luck to you! 😀

[@ingridverduzco616]

Is it okay to use needles instead?

[@jonithomas192]

The second video in your beginner playlist doesn't seem like it belongs 😂

Oops! 🤭 One of my videos was featured in that one. Lol

Hi, what type of bobbins are these please ? Thanks

[@GaliciaBee]

These are Galician boxwood bobbins, you can find them here: galiciabee.etsy.com/listing/1536834753/50-galician-bobbins-boxwood-lace-making

[@marianlyons5377]

@@GaliciaBee Thanks for that, I notice you have a shorts video on " have you tried this bobbin lace pattern" you mentioned where to go in the pattern...Could you do a more in depth video on this, ( how to read understand /patterns) that would be a great help to me and probably many others ? Thanks

[@GaliciaBee]

@@marianlyons5377 Thank you so much for the suggestion! I'll put it on my 'to do' list!

Hi - love love love your videos ❤ I need help on starting a project, and I was hoping you could help me? I would love to e-mail you, so I can send pictures of the lace pattern 🤞

[@GaliciaBee]

I’m so sorry I didn’t see your comment until now! Have you figured it out on your own?

Impossible to follow. If I'm reading then I'm not looking at the lace and if I'm looking at the lace, the text changes and I don't know what's happening. Seriously useless.

[@GaliciaBee]

Learning lace takes patience. And watching the video several times will help. 😊
