My first crochet project was the harry style cardigan (kind of similar to this) I was crocheting from 9am to 11pm everyday (quarantine) and it took me almost a month 😂 so when you said 4 days I laughed 😂 … the sweater looks amazing tho and love the editing 👌

[@verapebbles]

Hahah never have I ever underestimated a project this much… 😂 thank you!!

[@Tchika]

Girl, same! 😂

[@rishikaagarwal8879]

Coming from another girl who has millions of hobbies too it's really inspiring to see your journey. Lots of love from India❤

[@Helencraftcrochet_23]

Crochet is really fun, enjoyable and i am glad i learnt it earlier and now here helping others to learn how to crochet and have fun! I crochet every single day and it maked me feel less stressed, energized and happy to make fun projects even small ones...

[@verapebbles]

Ahh that's so amazing!

[@Helencraftcrochet_23]

@@verapebbles yeah...thanks

[@noellew____]

This video makes me feel better--I always wonder how I would describe myself. Dancer? Language learner? Crocheter? Like, it seems like I have too many interests/hobbies and I just need to pick ONE. But nah, it's okay to hop around from time to time :)

[@verapebbles]

Exactly!!

[@audiepaw]

I'm a hobby girl too! I started knitting about 15 years ago, self taught. Haven't even made a sweater yet so well done! It's awesome! I need the pattern! I have the yarn for a sweater a got for Christmas last year maybe? Still sitting there but I think after my hat I'm on, I have to try!

[@verapebbles]

Ah that's amazing! I had a hard time choosing between knitting or crochet.. But I definitely want to try knitting some day! I've put a link in the description of the tutorial I followed for the cardigan I made, in case you're interested :)

[@Helencraftcrochet_23]

I wish i could knit😢 but i always find it hard, only know how to crochet but will challenge myself next year with knitting

[@Ashischeeky]

When the cardigan shenanigans began, I was expecting to be a single colour but the end result was so cute! I love how colourful it is! 🌟

[@verapebbles]

Aw thank you!! I'm so happy with how it turned out :)

[@Ashischeeky]

@@verapebbles Perhaps crochet something new in the next video?🤭✨

[@seekingsophie]

Such a wholesome video! I’m so impressed with the result of the cardigan!! I tried learning crochet once. I never got past the starting chain 😁😁

[@verapebbles]

Thank you so much Sophie!! Hahah it definitely requires some patience at the beginning!

[@Helencraftcrochet_23]

Crochet is really easy and i promise you will have fun with it ones you know the basics first...use right hook size and yarn, keep practising over and over😅

[@theartofrajgauri9613]

Hello Vera! Loved your crochet cardigan 😍 so nice in the first try ❤.. I too have many hobbies and like to try and experiment new things to break the monotony of life.. so I could agree with many points you shared in the video 🤗.. Hoping to see such meaningful content from you!! ❤ Thanks!

[@verapebbles]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you could relate :)

[@lizziehutchins]

This was such a relaxing video! I've been crocheting and enjoying the process of making things too. I'm impressed you jumped into making a cardigan! I'm still working up to clothes.

[@verapebbles]

Thank you! That's amazing, enjoy the crochet journey! :)

[@Helencraftcrochet_23]

Have fun with it...

[@eusuntrox]

Omg! I love this! Can't wait to watch all your videos! ❤

Thank you!! :)

This video is incredible 😻 I love how the cardigan turned out

[@verapebbles]

Thank you!!

[@love13f]

love this video! it inspired me to start crocheting 🤍

[@daphneburgess8642]

That is a very ambitious first crochet project, but you did it and it looks great! Well done!

[@maryamfooladi3126]

So inspiring ❤️ loved it.

[@hana-rp6cg]

1-i really appreciate your efforts to make this video 🙏 2-you have answered a lot of questions that were in my mind Thank you so much ❤️

[@ginabaez7498]

El suéter quedó hermoso!!! Lo más hermoso es el valor personal de que lo hiciste con tus propias manos, así que es algo único en el mundo ❤. Me gustó mucho tu manera de grabar y editar, así como el mensaje de que está bien tener muchos pasatiempos y que en realidad muchas veces debemos dejarlos así y no capitalizarlos solo para sacar dinero de eso, ya que muchas veces siento presión de mi misma cuando pinto o hago algo más de arte, sintiendo que debería estar haciendo una fortuna con eso, pero, en realidad no quiero pensar en dinero cuando lo que quiero es pensar en conectar conmigo misma y solo dejarlo ser. ❤ Saludos desde Colombia 🇨🇴🤗🫶🏻✨

[@verapebbles]

Thank you so much!! I'm so glad this video meant something to you! Greetings back from the Netherlands

[@Karelife]

Well done. I’m quite impressed and it turned out beautiful. I crochet punch needle learning embroidery and do not like needle felting. I live alone so crafting is a way that I’m productive and stay busy. I can’t wait to see what you do next.

[@crochetemoiunmonde9397]

That’s so cool, I crochet, knit, cross stitch, play the ukulele, the guitar and starting to sew ❤

[@verapebbles]

that's awesome!! I've been wanting to try cross stitch for a long time... what's one more hobby, right? :D

[@dn4948]

Wow! Well made! ❤

[@hotcuppachocoasmr]

love this!

[@solveigfrank]

It turned out soo good! And i also have a tooon of hobbys and i cant be more proud and happy bout it :3 lately just picked up henna/jagua for body art and beside im hooked with crocheting for the last couple months

[@verapebbles]

Thank you!! Ah that's so awesome!

[@laila.simone]

I love the cardigan and the video!! :)

[@verapebbles]

Thank you!! ☺️

[@naiyaru]

You are my spirit animal. Ik ben precies zo haha. Too many hobbies, and changing from one to the other. Although I do venture back as well, it depends on my mood and inspiration. I love how you state it shouldn't always be about creating a business, the fun is in the creation and learning new things. Also, love the cardigan. Is it the Make and Do Crew one?

[@verapebbles]

Ahh love that! Yes exactly! I've put a link in the description to the tutorial I followed for the cardigan :)

[@kerravonsen2810]

That does look like a very comfortable and warm cardigan.

[@batmin16]

voy a escribir en español porque me da pereza pensar en inglés ahora mismo xd uno de mis primeros proyectos a crochet también fue un cardigan y lo tuve que rehacer dos veces para que quedara como yo quería, de hecho no lo he terminado aún pero por fin está quedando como a mi mente perfeccionista le gusta jajaja. El tuyo quedó increíble, y el video también me gustó mucho, eres muy buena en lo que haces :)

[@verapebbles]

Thank you so much! :) Ahh I can so relate to the perfectionism hahah, good luck with finishing your cardigan!!

[@lindarosenthal6835]

Well done. I don’t understand people who don’t have hobbies. What do they do with their time and energy?

[@marnime]

What a soothing yet entertaining video. Was suggested by KZbin. Well done, you're very talented. Wishing your channel the best of luck. I'll sub and share❤

[@verapebbles]

thank you so much!! Means a lot

[@IdasCreations]

Great video!! I love your thought on the subject and that you keep it short and concise

[@verapebbles]

Thank you so much!! My office chair is from Ikea! :)

[@sweetheartknits]

I love this video! The constant commercialization of things we love as people always irritates me- and we wonder why the depression rates are going up!

Those Zeemanbags are a lifesaver

[@verapebbles]

I literally went to the Zeeman with my little Zeeman bag to get Zeeman yarn 🫡

[@jarticul]

The video is amazing too! I love film making & hopefully to take that part seriously (please share tips to begin if you can) plus I have turned on my notifications cuz I love your channel already

[@verapebbles]

Thank you!! I watched many filmmaking tutorials (still do actually, I'm also still learning!) but the most important thing is to just start practicing :)

[@jarticul]

@@verapebbles I'll continue doing same. Thank you Queen

[@jarticul]

@@verapebbles I hope one day you’ll give a tutorial on channels to learn from… no pressure ❤️

[@showman139]

Crochet have hooks, not needles. My first crochet project was technically a bunny doll out of the Edward Menagerie book. It looks terrible, and yet I love it. When you feel up to it, try embroidering your yarn wear.

[@showman139]

My very first project was a swatch of crochet yarn. I've been looking around on how to embroider my crochet projects. This way I can add little details on toys or gloves

[@maryamnoori6040]

Woww it was wonderful

[@Shreyaanandnair]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@nickorange4881]

how long did the sweater take ?

[@verapebbles]

I think about 12 days, some days I could only do a bit of crochet, but other days I literally crocheted for hours :')

[@nickorange4881]

what material was the yarn ?

[@verapebbles]

I believe it was acrylic!
