Jayda InStitches thanks for making this video!

[@deeraines9416]

Jayda InStitches one thing i find to be one of the most useful items in my tools is embroidery bobbins (the plastic ones). When getting to the point i need to ball up a partial skein i use these to write on sticky dots or even post it notes all the yarn id info i might need later should i decide i want more of that yarn or to just know wt of yarn and fiber when doing scrap projects. I can honestly say this has been a true game changer for me when having to try to find discontinued yarns. I figure that i will use this for yarn swaps between friends and myself on my yarn crafters for charity page on fb for charity projects. They are simple to attatch by running the tail of the ball theough and then use the slit to anchor the yarn tail or use a safety pin to attach the bobbin to the ball. Happy crafting all. Thank you j Jayda for all your time. 😃

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Dee, great suggestion :) Thank you for watching!

Very beautiful white vest

[@Chuliputi1389]

Jayda InStitches Hey Jayda my brother_in_law just subscribed to your channel. He wants to learn to crochet. I've shown him once, but he is currently visiting Virginia from Puerto Rico for a week only. He will be watching your videos. We'll be practicing a little each day until he leaves on Saturday. I'm so excited.

[@rosalindaretana2977]

Well I am a covid 19 crochet person. New to it. I wish I would’ve learned when I was younger to crochet many beautiful clothes I see on KZbin.

[@cassidy3294]

I'm thinking of starting , any advice ?

[@rosalindaretana2977]

@@cassidy3294 That's good. Yeah just make sure you count your stitches. Otherwise it's not going to come out the way it supposed to be. And look on the yarn instructions it tells you what size crochet hook to use. When people on you tube is making something they tell you what size hooks to use. That way just make sure you have the right hook size as the yarn.

[@kiviabrown2335]

@@cassidy3294 Me too. I am thinking about making my own crochet hooks as well too.

I think that's a great ideal,. I heard my friend wants to learn how to crochet a scarf... that will be the perfect gift,. for her.. I crochet when I was a teen back in the 70's now I can also knit,. its relaxing,.. never thought about fixing a gift basket for someone,.😊☺👍 thank you... 😊

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Connie, gift baskets full of craft supplies can have a really great impact! Thank you for watching :)

[@karoljelbert1996]

I found your tutorial for granny squares two years ago, it is the best information around, so clear and precise, thank you, I now crochet every day, I have made two double bedspreads and numerous shawls, such an enjoyable hobby.... Everyone should go to your tutorial, even I can crochet now!!

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Karol, thank you so much for watching :)

[@cheryldye505]

I found your videos while searching how to make a dishcloth... you are my go to for crochet projects... I enjoyed crocheting so much I introduced my granddaughter to it... we did the craft store shopping for her first “kit” as a Christmas gift... my granddaughter is really good at crocheting... she can do stitches I can’t and she loves crocheting... thank you for your encouraging words and videos...

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Cheryl, that's wonderful! It's a creative skill that's she'll get to continually develop over her whole life :)

[@judis.1810]

Jayda in Stitches...You are the best friend I've never had. I too, learned how to crochet with you and your videos. Thank You very much!

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Judi! Isn't the internet great?! Connecting all of us like-minded, crafty folks :)

[@theresasatterfield2828]

I have been teaching myself with KZbin videos. Thanks for all that you have taught me.

[@judewishedhimselfout]

Teaching for 20 years?! Did you start when you were 5? I think I’ll send my daughter something like this! Love your videos.

[@JaydaInStitches]

* giggle * aren't you sweet! Thank you for watching :)

[@MelissaThompson432]

I learned how to crochet from my neighbor (with her hook and yarn) when I was about 12 and she was probably 10. Then I went to the dime store and bought one skein of yarn and one (F?) hook. That was all I needed for a very long time.... 😏🤔😉😁

[@angelastofflet3729]

My daughter now wants to learn too! Thanks for this crochet gift idea!

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Angela, Thank you for watching :)

[@MsMOLLYKINS]

I taught my self with the help of Utube . I am disabled and I was struggling but I was bored. Now I have come up with a pattern for a cot sized quilt using Bernat baby wool and now I've found your star and moon pillows I will be making up sets for Christmas gifts. Thanks jayda I purchased an expensive set and have added a few really big sizes. I think beginners just need a cheap settl start but I think investing in a good set with rubber handles . Xo

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Molly, sounds like you're going to be really busy this holiday season :) Thank you for watching!

[@MsMOLLYKINS]

Jayda InStitches I figure I have time and I've been making these blankets for my grandbabies and they can only need so many . I love giving gifts but it's not cheap to crochet it cost me $60 australian for one cot blanket . Now as much as I love giving I simply can't afford to so I am going to sell them to the people I know that want them . It's funny crochet seems old hat to our youth but so far my son and his friends having babies all,love this wool so i am helping them out really. Anyway thanks so much I do love your channel xoxoxo

[@cynthiamolenaar770]

Wow! Thanks for this video! I am learning a lotnof grown ups ánd kids to crochet and you just confirmed to me I do things the right way! I even let a friend of mine start with a granny....

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Cynthia, thank you for watching :)

[@DEniseCHAVEZ7]

I started crocheting since I was just 7years old. My grandmother showed me. And now I am showing my 2 girls ages 7 and 9. But sometimes I'm using the hooks that they are most comfortable to them 5.0 and 5.5 so this would be good for them to have their own hooks to start sharing. Love your tutorials. ☺

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Denise, I think they'd really like having their own hooks, it's sort of a special tool to have :)

[@maryhelenaguirre5417]

Good morning Jayda thanks the website you sent me was easy to find. And I did learn how to make a baby slipper. I want to thank you. Have a blessed day.

[@deidresharpley3811]

Thank you soooo much for teaching me to crochet,I started with your video on granny squares,and now i am hooked!(No punn intended). I live in South Africa,and so wished we had the same yarn here,but I use similar yarn compositions.Thank you,thank you,thank you for all your tutorials! You are awesome!!!!

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Deidre, thank you so much for watching :) And hello from Canada!

[@sweetpickle57]

I love the Boye Hooks, also Clover brand hooks with the soft handles. When I print a pattern, I find putting them in a plastic sheet protector with holes on the edges, keeps them neat and clean. Then I'll keep them neatly in a 3-ring binder. Always need a cute pair of scissors, too! I like a fun bag to keep my projects in. Easy for traveling, so a zipped pocket is a must, keeps all in it's place. Thank you, for your fun videos!

Thanks Jayda. My sister and I were trying to put together a 'starter kit' like this for a 12 yr old boy. We were glad to find your video and see that we were on the right track. Thanks again!

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Jean, that's great! Glad we could help :)

[@topazermshar4459]

I loved this! I did a variation of this for my two daughters. The only addition I'd make is an inexpensive reusable shopping bag/tote. You can find these all over for about a dollar in various patterns/designs, and the often have a small pocket to store all the hooks, scissors, needles, tape measure, etc.

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Topaz, that's a great suggestion! You're right, having a handy bag to carry all our new goodies around in is a great addition!

[@lisastracner5565]

I love watching your video's so much information thanks

[@patwagner9308]

Hi, Jayda ! I am watching this in Oct. 2019. I taught myself to crochet in July 1971 (a year into marriage). I bought a size 1 steel hook & a ball of crochet thread to learn on...nope, not the larger aluminum hooks & not yarn. I find G & H are the hooks I used most often for yarn. I also use steel hooks because I crochet w/crochet thread. I didn't use place markers until this year !!!! I find they are very , VERY helpful when creating a long starting chain. It is SO easy to lose count....but if you put a place marker every (let's say) 20 chains, then it's easy to re-count , much quicker & takes out the frustration & possibly dirty looks shot at the person who dared to speak while you were counting ! LOL And oh, keeping a journal of projects.....I haven't & regret that so much. I have always taken pictures...but I wish (oh how I wish) I'd always written down what I made, the yarn I used, what size hook, what colors, what pattern & what magazine the pattern was in or what You Tube channel, etc.

[@priscillaparillo6917]

I have been following you for about a year. Every video and tutorial is delightfully done. You have a unique presence and I've gone back to this particular video for tips today, as I now have a couple of my own senior friends who are willing to get to know the crochet world. I am excited for them and will put together a simple starter kit and send them right to your website to teach themselves at whatever level and pace they choose. I cannot ever thank you enough for all that you do for the community and for giving us gentle persuasions that we can create and share the joy.

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Priscilla, we're so happy to hear you're sharing your love of crochet with some friends! Putting together kits for them will be a lot of fun :) Thank you so much for spending time with us!

[@SharitCreations]

I am rewatching this and writing down the list of what to include to send to my mom as soon as I shop in my stash.

[@JaydaInStitches]

You could include the little check list with the goodies too! I think that would be cute 😊

[@DavidBrowningBYD]

My first time seeing this video. I've offered crochet lessons and thought of compiling starter kits like this. I would include H, I, and J hooks, plastic stitch markers that close like safety pins (which you can get in volume for very little money), and cotton yarn, and I would use a wash cloth pattern to teach single, half double, and double crochet. Alternately, an acrylic worsted weight yarn and a scarf pattern with different stitches. (Hmmm.....must write up some scarf ideas into an actual pattern......) For scissors, blunt-nosed craft scissors serve me just fine to this day.

[@jeanjones8801]

Thanks to you I made my first crochet afghan!

[@JaydaInStitches]

[@tracyserrano1919]

Thank you so much !!! I shared this video on facebook to my husband and said "I need this gift!!!" I love your videos!!!! I am still learning and having problems holding the yarn. Once I get that I'm on my way to making so many of your patterns. oh yeah !!!!! :)

[@JaydaInStitches]

HI Tracy, thank you for sharing our video :) I hope hubby gets the hint LOL. Holding yarn is a very personal thing and I always say it's best not to think about it...just focus on making stitches and pretty soon your fingers will just work out for themselves how best to hold the yarn :)

[@tracyserrano1919]

Thank you. I will get it. I have a Craft Show in Dec. My first one !!! Thank you again.

Yes there are beginner-focused videos, blogs, and books by wonderful generous experienced crocheters. However your presentation and explanations are perfect for us newbies. We want to hurry up and be crocheting pretty things. We enthusiastically start to share our newfound hobby even though we are so new and inexperienced. Thanks Jayda!

[@camper14]

Thanks for all your help. I haven't got to watch a lot of them but I only know the granny square and the ripple. I wanted to learn and my Mother said she would not show me unless I did it right handed. Because I was lefthanded it frustrated her to help me. So I finally learned what I do know right handed now. My elbow gets tired because of the way I hold my hook.lol

Thank you for sharing Jayda! My daughter is about to turn 8 and we have practiced the chain stitch for what seems like forever but I have been unsure of what to have her do next. I will definitely have her do a granny square next, it is the perfect next step and is one of the first things I learned from you years ago. Also I think that making her own crochet set would be a perfect gift next month for her birthday considering she always uses my stuff ;) Thank you again and keep crafting!

[@sandygrogg8209]

You are so right about not needing every hook size... I find that I most often use three or four sizes most often. They are H-8, I-9, J-19, and once in a while, the K-10.5. I’m going to try a G-7 on my next Mandala project.

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Sandy! Given that the Mandala is a nice size 3, I think the G-7 is an excellent choice, the stitches won't be too tight or too loose :)

[@lorim3155]

Nice video Jayda! I would also recommend writing in the first page of the journal for them a list of websites or videos for them to look at and watch. Sites that explain basic crochet terms and a beginner's guide along with something like Ravelry to ooh and ahh at. As far videos, give them crochet channels and beginner videos. Tell them you emailed them links or share links on KZbin that teach them how to chain, single crochet, double crochet, etc. Have a good day!

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Lori, that is a sensational idea!! Rounding out the gift basket with some helpful resources is a super jump start into the craft :)
