Thank you so much!! This is the easiest way to crochet mesh sleeves I haven’t seen any tutorial easier than this!! You’re so awesome 💗💗

@@HannahDrapinski Yes girl seriosuly! I am 13 yrs old and I can tell you this is the easiest only crochet tutorial I have ever watched

[@Vinxxz]

@@Cuties_Aestheticsoh me too, iam 14, i beginner

[@LibertyGuerrero-lh2xz]

as someone whos made multiple boleros with different patterns i can easily say this is the best one!! not only is it super easy to follow and comprehensible, it makes way more sense than other patterns. love how everything flows seamlessly ☺️❤️

[@ivana1548]

Omg i would definetely want a part 2 with bell sleeves😭❤

[@HannahDrapinski]

will do!!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@marijanuzdic2083]

​@@HannahDrapinski yayy pleeease do it!!!

[@activistwitch]

If it helps I managed bell sleeves by adding a ch1 between two stitches in every row, if it makes sense

[@Lemonadelo]

@@activistwitchdoesn’t She do that already?

[@activistwitch]

@@Lemonadelo she does it in the top to expand from the shoulders to the sleeves but doesn't in the sleeves but that same technique works for bell sleeves

[@saraioi12]

If you are plus sized or have chubbier arms, make sure to change how many rows you start making in the beginning! Instead of 10 I’m going to do 13 for a nicer fit

[@Gilax-ASMR]

Heyy, I'm not sure how to dc, do you have a video that you could recommend?

[@saraioi12]

@@Gilax-ASMR At around 1:20 on this video she starts doing some double crocheting (dc) yarn over, put hook into next stitch, yarn over again, pull hook through 2 loops, yarn over again, pull hook though the other 2 loops all the way through, and thats a dc (double crochet)! and this video is very clear and easy to follow for beginners too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2LamahsfNqVZ68si=ipRWUJqaKLIKaFeD hope this helps! :))

[@saraioi12]

@@Gilax-ASMR on my suggestion for the sleeve cuffs if your sleeves are too big, you basically do the same thing she’s doing in the video, but skip the part where you add a chain, and just go straight into the next double crochet stitch, with a double crochet

[@Gilax-ASMR]

@sarai5178 thank you so so much, this helped a lot!!♡♡

[@hollydawn07]

Thank you! I did 14 rows, and it was perfect. To offset it being bigger at the top of the arms, I started decreasing one stitch starting at round 12 of the sleeve, and every 3rd round after, just to keep the sleeve a little fitted. I might decrease more often than every 3 rounds once it’s closer to the wrist. I just did a regular double crochet decrease like this ❤️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnK7aqeYrc6igdEsi=-lMbJMHkxtTjMFLU

[@emmarevell6865]

Almost finished sleeve 1! This is the best tutorial I’ve come across as someone that prefers a written pattern , so proud of myself for doing this as I give up normally with crocheted clothes that require sewing so thank you so much for this ❤

[@jayebert4431]

Please do a pt2 with bell sleeves! I love bell sleeves so much and this tutorial was the best I’ve seen for a normal one!

[@HannahDrapinski]

oh my gosh you’re the absolute sweetest!! that means the world to me 🥹🫶🏼 i will do a part two!! 🌞🌿

[@eliana.pipes.creates]

@@HannahDrapinski Did you ever do the bell sleeve tutorial? I'm making this now and I'd love to see it!

[@deecupine]

This pattern is awesome! But I definitely had to learn from my sizing mistakes and do some free-styling. I didn't make it wide enough in the beginning to reach past my armpits, so it wouldn't have fit if I started the sleeves. So after I made the base rectangle with the neck hole, I worked a few rows down the side to add width before connecting the sleeve. I added 2 additional normal rows of stitches. From there, I realized it might still not fit well around my shoulders, so I did 3 rows where I added an extra stitch. Those rows were like this: Regular DC+chain, DC+chain in the middle of the chain below, DC+chain in the actual stitch. This made 2 stitches where there usually is only one. I then worked across as normal until at the end of the row, where I mirrored the same thing, adding that extra stitch there too. I did this 3 times before connecting the sleeves. It added a very slight curve to the hemline of the garment at the armpit, giving it some more room for the shoulders and armpit so I can hold my arms normal. If I followed the pattern word for word, on my body, the shrug would have had to have had more rows and go down further. Consider this alternative before slip stitching your sleeve if you have a little more meat on your arms but you want the front to hit at the same spot as the pattern

Thank you so much for it, i really needed it and this was the hest one i could find and its super beginner friendly

[@sjferguson]

This looks perfect! I'm heading out for a weekend at a cabin with some friends and it's still going to be chilly in the evenings. My question is this, I have a beautiful variegated yarn similar to what you used by I want my color changes to run long ways vs how you did the sleeves of yours, if that makes sense 😊 I wonder if you have any tips on how I might achieve that. I know I could just start with the length of my arms, like finger tip to finger tip and just work on it factoring in the neck opening when the time comes but I'm wondering if you've ever done one like that and if you have any tips. I really want my stripes to go long ways of it's possible 😊

[@stephaniesimpson1523]

Helloooo Hannah, I’m really enjoying your channel and there are several garments I want to make, especially the Bloomers. However I have a dilemma, my friend made this shrug and she is a beginner. She had no idea how she made the sleeves bell at the end. I’m going to try and send you a picture of what it looks like. It won’t let me copy and paste it. Soo I’ll try to explain… it’s worked as a shrug with trebles and the sleeves start out narrow and as you go past the elbow maybe three or four rows under it starts to bell closes to the wrist. I hope I explained it well, but if you could help me in giving me an idea of how to get that affect or you doing a tutorial on it I’d greatly appreciate it. I may be able to email a picture of it.

[@nabila08127]

Love the tutorial! But im just wondering how much yarn did you use for the whole thing? I only have a yarn cake that's 140 grams and i was planning on making it even longer than yours but im scared i will not be able to complete it

[@hileamina4567]

Woo,❤ so nice 👍🙂

[@toronjaa3662]

i had to add one more row to the body because it was too tight on the armpits, but aside from that everything else was perfect! thanks for the tutorial.

[@stellazion8434]

when you added one more row did you do it on both sides??

[@kimbailey3232]

Have you thought of making a high/low version?

[@AwoooOga3503]

I experiment with the bottom top. I used a different crocheting that it would be like a belt at the bottom & white this shrug pattern as I work up the shoulder. I'm just frustrated rn bc i been doing back and forth. & I haven't found a video with the style I'm describing here 😂 & I just started 3 days ago, it's going well...I just don't know what I want to do bc I want to make everyday asap 😅
