How To Crochet A Cute Bolero- The Tilda Shrug!

[@binteahmad-lc1zf]

I am pleased to announce the successful completion of the exquisite bolero, a project that required six days of dedicated effort.

[@binteahmad-lc1zf]

Racheal, I must say your exceptional teaching skills. Today marked a significant milestone for me as I ventured beyond my usual projects to create something distinct from my usual cardigans, achieving remarkable success in the process.

Many years ago I was caring for an old Lady. Every evening she went to bed, she asked me for her „sleeves“. Warm for her arms, but otherwise not to warm. These were just like your bolero. Love it! I think I‘m like her… I will definitiv make this. Thank you!

[@kaitlync5922]

I just finished making it and haven't taken it off since completion. I even ordered the yarn in grey so I can make a second one! Favorite sweater I've ever made, thanks for the pattern!

[@EvelynAndPeterCrochet]

Oh my gosh that means so much!! So glad you enjoyed it!!

[@patsypuente8757]

Thank you for sharing your crochet, tutorial I don't know how to read patterns and this just makes it so easy. Thank you again. For sharing❤

[@kfulweiler]

Love this shrug and can't wait to get started on crocheting one! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!

[@eumppappaaa]

This is exactly how i wanted, I've been searching for this pattern

[@GladysFlemm]

Super cute!! It would look very stylish with my dresses, I've already got the pattern 😀 Thanks Rachel and take care.

I'm knitting 🧶 a shrug wrap... I'm going to crochet 🧶 this next, I love that 😁 thank you ❤️

[@EvelynAndPeterCrochet]

Yay! Happy crocheting!!

[@darya155]

I feel like row 53 on the website pattern for L/XL is incorrect but eventually becomes right by row 55, so despite that head scratch I’m soooooo happy with how it’s coming along so far!!! I can see myself making this for friends and family too ❤️ very beautiful !

[@stationerywonderland4783]

Just finished mine (I haven’t weaved ends yet 🫣) I LOVE it! Definitely going to make more in other colors 🤩! Thank you for all those fabulous patterns

[@pr1ncessmya]

[@nicoleiannuzzi449]

You just came up on my recommendation! I am so excited to find this beautiful design! Just ordered my kit! This is great for fall! I am so excited!

Hi from France! Thank you so much for sharing your talent 🙏🏽 such a sweet cardigan ❤ I wish you a sweet warm evening 🌺❤️ Sorry for the bad unrespectful comment that cathycreation posted. This made me so ashamed.

[@EvelynAndPeterCrochet]

Thank you so much! No worries at all. So glad you like the design! Have a great day!!

[@morganpage1324]

I made a little mistake that made me giggle, sewed one panel upside down, but fixed it and it's gorgeous

[@lalnunpuii960]

The written pattern and your videos is not same for Row 42 please help

[@MissMaryam-cy2qw]

14:25 just for me to come back to it tomorrow lol

[@kayleighevans2828]

I did only 20 rows for the cuff..thats how many made it around my wrist..hoping if i just start from there it will turn out fine :)

[@margaretsharp2464]

Hello question can I use acrylic yarn instead? Will it change the size or shape?

Beautiful 😍 pattern ❤ thank you 🧶❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

You’re welcome 😊 so glad you like it!

[@trishamonroe8482]

Hi there! I just Love all your patterns and have made quite a few of them. Thank you so much for sharing!! I had one question, I’ve made this Tilda Shrug twice and both times the right said is bigger than the left…I figured I did something wrong so I tried again and it literally came out the exact same. I want to try again, but thought I would ask, in case you had a little trip or trick to try! lol! Thanks!!!

[@EvelynAndPeterCrochet]

Hi! which part came out bigger? The length of the sleeve or just overall size?

[@trishamonroe8482]

@@EvelynAndPeterCrochet The over all size of the right sleeve compared to the left sleeve, it’s was substantially bigger. I even kept the stitch marker in the middle stitches and just added another marker each row. Just to make sure I wasn’t getting off count. Also counted each row to make sure I had the correct amount. My tension is pretty consistent, and I’ve made many of your projects and this has never happened. So I must be reading the pattern wrong or something??

[@avam1319]

I've had the same issue did you figure out what went wrong?

[@trishamonroe8482]

@@avam1319 I did not. I just kinda moved on. I will try it again in the fall.

[@Imjustwalkingby]

Hi, may I know how many yarn did u used for this project please? Thank youuuuuuu

[@SierraWinegar]

For the sleeves, is the hdc and dc in the front or back loop only? The pattern doesn’t specify but the video looks like it may be just the front loop. Please help 😊

[@BratinellaV01]

thank you for this pattern ^_^, may I ask how many skeins did you use for this pattern?

[@DubadduWariWari_1]

Hey, do i have to make the bead section? If not what could I do in it's place? Love this patter, it is very easy to follow

[@EvelynAndPeterCrochet]

you could just do a normal row of Dc or Hdc!

[@DubadduWariWari_1]

@@EvelynAndPeterCrochet Thank you for replying, I am making a size XS so ill just DC there!!

[@mamawmaw6198]

​@@EvelynAndPeterCrochet how many yarns did you use pls tell me ❤

[@sheniaroslyn9987]

It would have been super helpful if at some point you show your progress in its entirety. I’m stuck on row 45 right now and your arms are covering both sides so I can’t tell if I’m doing it right 🙃

[@just_kris2007]

A quick question mam how many crocheting wool did you use to crochet this tilda shrug?...

[@alanahazelaar]

How could I keep the size S/M but add length to the arms near the cuff?

[@stutichaudhari5735]

Can we skip the bead row? Cuz i dnt like the way it looks , as in like is it compulsory? And if i can skip it should i just continue with pattern or what? How n for how many rows? Please reply someone

[@ciara_va]

in one of the other replies she said you can do a normal dc or hdc instead i guess it depends on what size you’re doing & what row you’re on

[@stutichaudhari5735]

@@ciara_vathankyou sm!!💕💕

[@crochetfan-c1z]

do you keep crocheting the left/right panel until it reaches up your arm or do you have to stop at row 41? i think if i stop there mine will be too short in the arms

[@samaayman6675]

you can add more rows till it reaches up your arm but without increasing any stitches just work dc and hdc so that it completes the panel

[@crochetfan-c1z]

So i think this pattern isnt good for regular acrylic worsted yarn😅 i made it in a size extra small and let me tell you, it is GINORMOUS. Im gonna finish it anyway and just have a really oversized shrug lmao

[@rina-chi357]

Hi I tried to crochet the cuffs 3 times already but it’s not elastic like yours, do you have any idea why? I’m sure I did it right, single crochet in the back loop, and one single crochet in both loops for the end and start of each row

[@alexastrange8119]

Your foundation chain is probably too tight

[@hana_buns1542]

Hello!!! Can I just ask if it is okay to use an 8 ply yarn for this project???

[@Maih-x9d]

it would be heavyyyy

[@Bri-e6z]

Im stuck for row 9-41 because when I check the written pattern it says to repeat rows 3-8 ending on a row 5 so do I repeat rows seven and eight like in the beginning or just stop on row five and start from row three again till I get to row five and so on? Help please 😢

[@chayennekraemer1460]

You repeat row 3-8 for row 9-41 and on row 41 you stop on row 5

[@LittleLiesje]

Hi I love you pattern and have a lot of fun making it for my sister. I am however stuck at row 53, if I repeat row 45 (as the pattern says) I end up with 57 Dc instead of 59 Dc. I cannot figure out what I did wrong and I don't understand the extra numbers in some rows like in 53 (45,43, 43,43). Can you help me?

[@EvelynAndPeterCrochet]

Hi! What size are you making?

[@LittleLiesje]

@@EvelynAndPeterCrochet I am making 4x/5x

[@LittleLiesje]

I have frogged my right armpiece back to row 52 and there I could 60 hdc, just like the pattern says for the largest size. I dont know what I am doing wrong when following the pattern?

[@EvelynAndPeterCrochet]

Hi! It looks like you are reading the row repeat for the wrong size. You should be repeating Row 43 for the 4x/5x not row 45. The pattern is written as XS(S/M, L/XL, 2X/3X, 4X/5X) So in that sequence of numbers that you pointed out - Repeat row 45(45, 43, 43, 43) the 5X size reads the last number only. The other numbers are for the different sizes provided.

[@LittleLiesje]

Ooooo thats what these number mean, thank you so much!

[@mimzsi9361]

Is one ball of yarn enough ?

[@darya155]

It depends on the yardage of the ball, but her pattern says: 810(870, 950, 990, 1030) yards for sizes XS to 5XL on her website

[@odwiiwi]

How much grams of yarn did u use for this?

[@Omekre]

So confusing 😢😢😢😢 make a serially i make 1 side but at the last i can’t understand anything 😖

[@lipalesakhuto6978]

Sammee, making the right side panel is confusing because she isn’t showing how it’s done

[@cjes793]

Hi love your pattern. I'm making a size L/XL and I am getting ready to start row 33. I measured it up my arm and I believe if I go the rest of the rows it will be too long for me since I have short arms. What should I do here? Please help me

[@EvelynAndPeterCrochet]

Hi! Are you taking into account the length of the panel is from wrist to middle back? How long is it measuring with the 33 rows?
