[@Skyeyez99]

Your room is like crochet heaven with all of that yarn!

[@TwinkieChanTV]

Marie Sadler It really does come in handy for late-night patter-writing!

[@Kittencat519]

Thank you for this! I picked up my supplies yesterday as we are expecting a blizzard this afternoon! What better way to spend a snow day

[@TwinkieChanTV]

Kittencat519 Definitely no better way!

[@Beautiful_Hope]

My text tone is "I am Groot." I'm going shopping this weekend for the perfect yarn to make my own baby Groot & one for my bestie. There can never be too many baby Groots in the world!! :) My husband wants a full size Groot so I'm gonna need you to hop on your pattern-making pronto!! LoL!! This is a wonderful tutorial & you are just the cutest. Thanks & keep sharing your skills with us!!

[@Kecoroe]

What I did to help balance him out was put some more pipe cleaner (fuzzy wire, or whatever you want to call it) through the length of his body. This is cool because you are granted the ability to move his body as well. I bound him to the pot I had and put rock around the bass of his body with some moss from the dollar store. Great pattern! I just gave one away the other day and they love it. I made sure to let it be known that it is YOUR pattern :D

[@kathrinbadel8363]

The best groot ever... Thanks for the tutorial.... It's beautiful

[@TwinkieChanTV]

Hi Kathrin! I'm so happy that you enjoyed it!

[@mischaguerrero3278]

I absolutely LOVE this!! Thank you so much. Wish I could crochet as fast as you can, but since I can't, and am prone to mistakes, guess it'll just take me a little longer to make. Can't wait to have my baby Groot!

[@TwinkieChanTV]

It really just takes practice. You'll be fast in no time! I don't even think I'm that fast compared to people who can bang out giant afghans all the time!

[@emmaconnell2586]

He is just the cutest! I will make him asap! Thanks!

[@rozsmith6850]

I've attempted a couple unsuccessful amigurumi. This is the first one I'm actually enjoying! In fact, I'm planning to add legs, and make my Groot fully posable. Thanks for the tutorial and inspiration!

[@user-zr7dn6yv8h]

Super super cute!!! I enjoyed your tutorial as well as baby groot in the end!!!

[@TwinkieChanTV]

Yay! So glad you liked the pattern!

[@RomyDandelion]

I'm so gonna try this when I'm a little bit more advanced. But the little guy looks awesome, can't wait to crochet him

[@TwinkieChanTV]

EvelynAndrews :) Keep practicing! It gets easier! :)

[@susy1521]

Gracias ...aunque no hablo inglés entendí cada paso excelente explicación ...logré hacerlo 😃

[@EmiGurumi86]

I can't wait to make a bunch of groots in different colors. Just because. ;) Thanks for taking the time to explain everything in your tutorials. I know it isn't easy. Crocheting always makes sense when you're doing it but when you have to explain all the little nuances you kind of realize how hard it is to communicate what is going on in your brain! xD And I pictured you shopping with your little groot to find him a house and that totally cracked me up. LOL!

[@TwinkieChanTV]

Yeah, this is why when people ask if I teach, my answer is, "I don't know how." :P At least, not the very very basics, like how to hold the yarn!

[@rhemaestorgio4928]

hi Twinkie. my sister love baby groot and found your post so she gave me the link for the baby groot pattern. I finish my baby prior crochet. thanks to you. God bless

[@TwinkieChanTV]

Yay! I'm glad you liked the pattern!

[@monex013]

[@Lovelifeliveright]

Groot is my favorite! I've made mine and am doing my second one now! Thank you for such an awesome video! You're blog is awesome doing another project from there as well. I laughed at the "*gasp* Did I just scratch my lens?" You're fabulous, again thank you!!

[@TwinkieChanTV]

Metzgersgirl Aw yay!!!! I'm so happy you're having fun making your Groot forest! ;)

[@vivienecost]

Thank you so much! I just finished one for my cousin and I gonna make one for me! I made a lot of parts following the written pattern cause I didn't have Internet. Is very well written! I love your work! I wish you sucess and happiness!!!Thank you!

[@happymailqueen]

TwinkieChan, I just wanted to thank you for posting this video. You just made my Hubby's Christmas gift a reality! He saw your first post online when you made your Baby Groot and fell in love with it. He asked me to crochet this for him as a Christmas gift months ago. I finally completed it 2 days ago with a sigh of relief. I am a beginner at crocheting. It only took me 2 days to make it. So, if I can do it. Anyone can after watching your tutorial. That's how good your tutorial is! You are my hero. Thanks again and Merry Christmas! If you have time you can watch my vid on YT under Happymailqueen.

[@TwinkieChanTV]

happymailqueen Yay!! I'm so happy it worked out! I'm also so proud of you for sticking it out and finishing!! Happy Holidays!!!!!!

lol i got carried away brought a bigger pot and wound up making his body 7 1/2 inches long. but he still looks great. thank you for such a great pattern

[@TwinkieChanTV]

[@helenyoun5567]

good to know that I'm not the only one crocheting at 4am. haha

[@TwinkieChanTV]

it's the best time to be creative! hehe

[@airkatmama4]

I bet craft sand could work as well as a weight and I stuff my amigurumi with plastic shopping bags it seems to make my creations more stiff but I like how I have an abundance of bags and technically I'm recycling them!

[@TwinkieChanTV]

kendra messaoudi oooh all those are really good ideas!!!

[@airkatmama4]

Ty I'm just adding to your great ideas!

[@LawfulGoodSock]

I forgot to buy green yarn, so now I have an almost-complete baby groot hanging around on my desk. Waiting.

[@TwinkieChanTV]

[@leannewelsh9146]

[@TwinkieChanTV]

+Leanne Welsh Hi!!! Did I not respond to this comment before? I'm sorry! I thought that I did. Thanks so much for checking out the video. Did you end up making the Groot already?

[@leannewelsh9146]

i have the pattern ready just need to choose a colour brown (im very fussy and havent been happy with the browns i have seen so far haha) and i'm thinking about maybe crocheting the plant pot too, i have a baby on the way so crocheting lots of cardigans and blankets at the moment but will be doing it soon :) i love your channel :)

[@CivilRedDevil]

Hi! I love your baby Groot, and i was wondering if adding the beads/beans/things in the bottom really made a difference for Groot being able to balance. Thank you!

[@twinkiechan5298]

+CivilRedDevil Hell It did help a little bit, but, he's just so long and skinny that he was still easy to knock over.

[@CivilRedDevil]

+Twinkie Chan Thank you so much for your help! I've been sat pondering it for ages! Btw i love all of your work! :)

[@diannehill2730]

At least he'll blossom and grow if you use the beans

Hello! I went and tried to get auto-captioning for all my tutorials just now. Most of them worked immediately, but a handful of them didn't generate for some reason, including this one. I wonder if it randomly takes more time for some videos than others, or if KZbin is not allowing the auto-caption for some reason.
