Its 2024 and Im still watching and learning from Melanie's website. Thank you for still having it on. Since I was always on her website as the beginner, learning and enjoying her teaching, I learned about her cancer battle. She left us way too young! I believe she is in better place where there is no pain. My deepest condolences.

I wish nothing but the best for her family.

Do 3 dc in the next ch 2 space again. Now for the corner, ch 2 then do 3 dc in that SAME ch stitch. Repeat this till you reach the end. In the last ch 2 space where the first petal was. Count the 3 chains, and SL st into the third. She explains better than me so here is the time stamp

Very heartsore. During a dark lockdown I learned everything about crocheting from Melanie. What a sunny and happy disposition - so passionate about projects and trying new things. She encouraged me to try even if I get it wrong, and to put passion into each project. I will watch and learn everything she has posted - perhaps also delve into quilting sometime!

[@dianarochelle3869]

Me too. 💔

[@cateelisabethlsn6400]

This was my first Melanie video. I subscribed immediately. I didn't understand today that every random you tube video I watched continued with the Melanie lifeline video. So after finishing my crochet worked I actually watched the compilation. I could not believe she passed away. I cried for so long. She was a real warrior. She never gave up. She never complained. She fought for her marriage. Unbelievable that such an amazing woman got so sick. My blessings to the whole family. I will continue to watch all her videos. Thank you for everything you thaught us Melanie. Rest in peace! God bless you 🤍🕊🕯

I love watching this young woman with such a gift for communicating to people and making us all feel like we were her next-door-neighbor ❤ I have been crocheting 50 years and have learned more in the last 13 years on KZbin than the previous 43! Yarn content creators do us such a fantastic service...I remember the old days when finding a new pattern meant a trip to the library, the craft or fabric store, or a hand-written pattern from friends or family. RIP Ms. Melanie Ham from one of many fans who miss you very much. I wish I personally knew the family so I could give her children a hug and help her husband in some way. What a special lady she was! 😊😊😽😽❤❤

I just made like 8 of these to make a bag before reading any of the comments. Her videos are so great. She taught me something really cool 6 months after she passed - that’s crazy.

[@KristaStumpff]

I didn't have enough of my yellow yarn to do the center of the flower, so instead I changed up the colors a bit - white, soft purple (basically a lilac) for the flower and then a medium grey, with an additional white around. It still looks very nice, although maybe next time I'll try using a shade of green around the flower instead of the grey, to make it look like leaves or something. Either way, I love this design so thank you for sharing it with us! I'll be making a bunch of these to turn into a project of some sort. Currently not sure what, but perhaps a bag or a baby blanket for my niece.

Since it might be helpful, I tried doing a second row of the background color, following the pattern for the first row and it looked pretty good. So this is the pattern: - ch 5, 3dc in the first ch 2 space (this will be the last corner) - 3 dc in the next two ch 2 spaces - 3dc in the next ch 2 space, ch 2, 3 dc in the same ch 2 space (this is for the corner) You repeat those steps until you reach the final corner, you do 2 dc then a slip stitch into the 3rd chain of the initial ch 5 and then just fasten off. Hope this helps :)
