How to Crochet Mushrooms

[@Jazevxie]

Perfect for decorating my witch hat 😍 the tutorial was really easy to follow and I'm planning on buying the full pattern!

[@rebekahsprlyan6982]

I’m still a beginner and I am so proud with the mushroom I made for one of my staff ,members tonight! I may not have done everything exactly, but I could follow fairly easily by watching, checking the written bits to make sure I understood, and I did it! It could have been good to have the stitches amount for each round but this didn’t impact my project working out for my first ever crochet item like this!! Thank you!!! ❤ 🧶

Me when this video pops up on my recommended: *happy gremlin noises*

[@amberl9758]

yesssss

[@JosephineLovleo]

I said “OOOOOOOOOOOGAAZAAAA MUSH” out loud 😭

[@jalynne13]

Me too ❤

[@kristinastone4601]

Love this my crochet tag is BrightEyed Crochet Gremlin haha gremlins unite!!

[@silverlining5097]

Please could you let us know at the end of each round how many stitches we should have. I brought so much wool and so much stuffing to make lots of these but I am completely confused and I have been crocheting for years

[@t.m.23]

Agreed! These instructions aren't clear to me

[@samanthachong9485]

the stitch marker keeps moving too. its really confusing

[@alisonwigens-lamond8715]

Nothing in nature is perfect. I haven’t followed the pattern instructions fully as I got lost along the way although the finished mushroom is still lovely. It still looks like a mushroom 🙌🥰

[@Autopilot_]

Finally someone who uses felting needles and crochets! I tried to get into felting long before I even discovered crocheting and now I kinda just mix the two so I can still use my felting supplies for something.

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

I love mixing these two crafts, they work so well together!

[@Autopilot_]

@@JessNicoleHandmade ikr I ended crocheting some wolf ears and tied in some yarn to make it fluffy but then I felted the outer ear which made it soft and smooth. It took a lot of time but it turned out amazing in the end.

[@cheesepup]

i appreciate how easy this tutorial is, thank u

[@Obsessive_Artist]

I LOVE this video. How you included the volva, how you told us what each part was called, and the lovely desaturated forest aesthetic of the video ❤️ 🍄

[@ParanormalC0w]

I love love love these little mushies! My biggest feedback would be to add a final stitch count for each round, especially for those newer to crochet. I found that for rnd 5, when moving the stitch marker to the second stitch, it changes the count. Going from 12 stitches in rnd 4, to (in theory based on instructions with the 3 sc2tog) would lead to 9 sts, moving the marker would leave one more sc at the end which isn’t mentioned in the instructions, yet in the video you end on a sc2tog (and when I paused to where I could count there were 10 sts from what I could tell). That part threw me off a bit. I was able to figure it out either way, but just a little something to keep in mind ☺️ thank you for taking the time to make a beautiful video!

[@liaferrari6195]

okay so it's not just me. did you end up getting to the same outcome as her or are we just always going to be one stitch off? i'm going mad.

[@anna5759]

At the beginning i did it wrong as i couldn't figure it out but it turned out that the stipe had a wavy top and it looked really nice so i improvised and di a red mushrooms instead and it so pretty!

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

I'm so glad your mushroom turned out well! :)

[@Izumiorra]

I'm going to see about making these and scatter them in the back yard for my son😊

[@kordking]

Do you have a video for adding the ring section, please?

[@nonbinarybard]

i wish you'd told us how many stitches we're supposed to have at the end of rounds 14 and 15 bcs i don't use stitchmarkers and thus am quite confused...

[@turdgleybirdd5804]

Well I just finished round fifteen and I have 33, but I suppose it doset matter all that much because mushrooms aren’t perfect 🍄 😅

[@sharadambac9041]

I did along with you and it came out well ! Thanks for sharing 👍 ❤😊

[@nancydelcarmenaguirre134]

¡Gracias por tu video! 😃

[@marisetimman1640]

Thank you for the beautiful pattern. But the pattern is sometimes a bit confusing. I think it works better with incr. Instead of sc2. It's just a feedback. 😬😁. I'm thinking of buying the patterns but I'm not sure yet.

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

Thanks for this feedback :) sc2 is just how I learned to write it years ago when I began crocheting, so that's what I use in my patterns. I did my best to make the written patterns clear and only use the sc2 when indicating an increase at that stitch. And if you ever have questions about the written patterns you can always reach out to me, I'm happy to help!

[@jacquelinefoote8081]

❤absolutely beautiful but I think we’re all winging it with the stitch count 😅

[@beatm6948]

Single crochet: with your hook, go into the next "v shape". Then, wrap the yarn around the needle, and pull it through the v, and onto your hook. Do not pull it through the stitch already on the hook. Then, the yarn around the hook, and pull through all the stitches on your hook.

[@mcd5478]

It might seem confusing for some because she’s doing a continuous in-the-round pattern. She’s not really doing individual rounds that get joined with slip stitches but they’re still called rounds because there are increases and decreases as she works the spiral. If you slow the play back speed and/or pause the video so you can follow directions, all will come out great! 😉

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

@@mcd5478 thank you for leaving this comment to help clarify. I’m actually planning to make a follow up video very soon to help answer questions about the pattern, like this with one, with visuals to go with it. But you are exactly right :)

[@domoniquehernandez9518]

i didn’t quite understand the increase 3 evenly around i’m a beginner in crocheting if someone could explain i’d be grateful 😁

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

Sorry :) yes, that's totally a term for seasoned crocheters. What I mean is to add/increase a stitch (Crochet 2 into 1 stitch) evenly spaced around, so that the shape increases in size evenly around. I hope that makes sense!

[@janelane9815]

Can someone explain to me why we mark the 2nd stitch and not the first one?

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

I found it easier to keep track this way, since it's worked continually in the round (no real beginning and end of the rounds) If you mark the 1st stitch where I noted to mark the second your marker will start to scoot one stitch over every round. I hope that makes sense! Let me know if you need more clarity :)

[@PLP224]

So beautiful! Is this beginner friendly?

[@turdgleybirdd5804]

I recommend watching a few tutorials on amuigrumi before following this tutorial, it’s pretty simple and honestly, if you mess up a few stitches or even rounds, it just adds character to the mushroom!😅

[@-blahblah-]

why do we place the stitch marker in the second stitch of the round sometimes, but other times we don’t? is there a purpose for this?

[@pinkmoonbaby]

Thanks for doing this! Although, I don’t feel like this is beginner friendly unfortunately :( I’d like to see a more in depth tutorial about each step by step.

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

Thanks so much for your honest feedback! I'll do my best to make another video breaking down the steps better so that beginners can follow along a bit easier!

[@madisongatlin2499]

Okay, but how do you make a slip knot?

[@madisonzink9308]

Okay literally same

[@not_alex8515]

I was wondering where to get the mushroom book

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

Here's a link to the pattern book: evokesupplyco.com/products/mushrooms-crochet-pattern-set

[@abigaillopezespinosa8573]

Im allergic to wool can I use any other yarn?

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

You can definitely use other yarn. I chose wool specifically because it felts. Felting helps in shaping the mushrooms after they're done. But even if you aren't able to manipulate the shape with felting, they still turn out cute!

[@natashaerickson8375]

What does "single crochet two together" mean? I can't see it well in the video but I'm pretty new as well

[@linnea5669]

It means you crochet the next two stitches together into one stitch, if you search "invisible decrease crochet" there will be videos showing you how to do it 😊

[@yaraescandon2423]

Why put the stitch marker in the second stitch in the round and not the first

[@jackeystar]

do yall know what she ment by add 3 increases evenly around ? like increase 3 then sc 1 ?

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

Sorry if that was confusing. I meant to evenly distribute 3 increases in that round. So Single Crochet 2 into a stitch 3 times in that round, and space them apart as evenly as possible. Let me know if that still doesn't make sense!

[@jackeystar]

@@JessNicoleHandmade OH that makes more sense thank you

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

@@jackeystar No problem, glad I could help!

[@melania1159]

Hey! These look lovely ❤ looking forward to making them but was wondering where you purchase your yarn? Thanks!

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

Thanks :) I usually purchase the yarn I use to make these mushrooms from eatsleepknit.com and if they don't have the right colors in stock, I try Etsy.

[@francopastega2630]

im sorry but do you slip stitch after each round ?

[@amberl9758]

is Sc2 in each stitch the same as a double crochet? I love this my friend was so happy when I gave her one!😍

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

Hi Amber :) No, Sc2 means to increase by single crocheting 2 stitches into the stitch below.

[@natashaerickson8375]

Idk what that means 😭 lol! I'm stuck!

[@thistleroots5151]

I went to your shop and the mushroom pattern isn’t there 😫

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

Oh no, sorry about that! I've just updated the link in the video description to get to it. Here's the link: evokesupplyco.com/collections/crochet-patterns

@@JessNicoleHandmade thank you so much! I’ll be using this for summer gifts and thank you gifts!

*happy goblin noises*

[@Cazzabelle28]

Lovely item but bit more consistently would help the flow of the tutorial. Stitch count on each row as you have done on other . Going "stagger you increases evenly" just interrupts the flow of your teaching style again and throws the viewer off .

[@JessNicoleHandmade]

That totally makes sense! At the time, this was just the best way I could figure out how to explain what I do at that point in the pattern. Sometimes I find it really challenging to teach something I've been doing for years, you know, it sort of becomes second nature to me, but hard to explain! I do my best to get better at these tutorial videos each time I make one, and this feedback is really helpful :)

[@Cazzabelle28]

@@JessNicoleHandmade I can't imagine what's it's like to get what's in your head out into a medium such a KZbin . Best wishes :)
