[@flswrsss]

heyyy!! may i use the star pattern for my own idea? im planning on doing a little diy for my shoes so i hope i can use it!! just in case: im going to add the star (no stuffing, just a regular one star) on the shoes!! (◍•ᴗ•◍)🌷 and i also have used this pattern for the actual star for my sister but i took it since she dont want it (・∀・)😾 ANDD u are also the reason i know how to make a magic ring or magic circle bcs of the star in this video (i think😿 im sorry if im wrong cus im not sure :(( )😸 so thank youu smmmmmmm for thatt 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷 :D

[@Froggies74]

​@@flswrsss I believe the star isn't her original pattern, (since I've seen it in older videos before) so you can just use it :)

[@kiba432]

I'll definitely make the star and photocard holder, it's the perfect combination for the upcoming Stray Kids comeback 5 Star. This is great timing, thank you so much!!

[@mahumcrochets]

[@Rio-fs1pf]

I'm Japanese and I used a translation, so sorry if it's wrong. I fell in love at first sight when I saw this video! I want to make it. Very cute!

[@SpaceDaizie]

21:20 The way my jaw dropped omg 🙊 I was puzzled how the flower shape was going to become a butterfly, and as soon as Mahum folded it and it INSTANTLY turned into a butterfly shape with both sets of wings...... crochet genius 🦋 I definitely want to make these charms out of some sparkly pink yarn, maybe attach them to a cute cushion with some crochet leaves and flowers 🥹

[@mawadiee]

i’m totally going to make this for my mom for mother’s day!

[@mahumcrochets]

omg yess that would be so cute!💗

[@glxowinq]

me too! i started it today and i just finished the back.

[@mahumcrochets]

let me know which one you’re going to make and what type of charms I should make next by replying to this comment! lots of love as always💗💞💕

[@kindaslay]

I'm gonna make all of them hopefully but first i wanted to do the photocard holder but i don't really understand the math you did when building up the side borders, could you try to explain it a little bit more? :)

[@najibah544]

Can you make a tutorial for a heart charm?? Tysm loved this video!! ❤❤

[@kindaslay]

​​@@najibah544 if you go to her "love letter book sleeve" video she does on there, but i can write it for you! :). First make a magic circle and then insert these stitches in it(in order) 3 triple crochet, 3 double, chain one, 1 triple crochet, chain 1, 3 double crochet, 3 triple crochet, chain 2 and slipstich into the first or second stich you made. Tighten your circle and your done!

[@chovion]

I made the photo card holder and when I slip-stitching both sides together… IT WAS SO SATISFYING-!! 😩 I don’t know why but I found it extremely satisfying to do and it was my favourite part 💕💕 It’s so cute aswell with the tiny border and I just love it so much, THANK YOU!! 🫶🫶

[@laurenseegers-lh1uz]

pattern for butterfly magic ring (mr) r1: ch3, dc into mr, [ch2, 2dc into mr]x7 you should have 8 groups of dc now ch2 and slst into the 3rd chain at the start cut yarn and pull through take new piece of yarn, pull a slip knot through a space of the 2crochets and ch 1 to attach the yarn to the original piece insert 6dc into the first 2ch space, slst into the dc space, then continue inserting 6dc in the ch space and slst in the dc spaces until you get to the end after the final slst, ch8 and fold the work so it looks like a butterfly. wrap the butterfly with the ch8 and find the original ch of the ch8 is and slst into it. cut the yarn and pull through. for antennae, tie a knot into the top of the butterfly using a small piece of yarn. to make a string to hold the butterfly, ch until you get a string long enough and pull through the top to the ch8 and tie it onto your bag
