I just finished mine and I looove it!! (Side note: I am 5’3” and wanted it a little shorter so folded and crocheted sleeves at only about 15” instead of 20”) thanks so much for this great tutorial crafting shed!!

I just finished mine and I love it even more than I thought I would. You're a terrific teacher and although I'm fairly new at crochet your instructions made it easy.

Thank you!

[@kearamenmen9165]

Love your show💕 👍

[@beverley1962ify]

The shrug is very beautiful, and the instructions are very easy to follow. Maybe you can consider making a bag using a purse frame? You are an excellent teacher.

[@CraftingShed]

Thank you. Yes, I'll look up purse frame and let me see what I can come up with. Thank you for your suggestion.

[@leonildasantana1032]

Lindooo!!!😊

[@kathleenkillen7820]

Very nice!

[@wisalali8309]

so nice simple croshet

[@blueskies7538]

I am in the middle of following this tutorial (very clear instructions!) and started out using a 5.5mm hook instead of a 6mm. I’m using white yarn and the stitches just look too loose for my liking and it makes it seem sloppy. I switched to a 5mm hook and it looks much better now. So for anyone else following this pattern just keep in mind you might want to use a smaller hook than what she’s using in the video.

[@CraftingShed]

Wonderful! Thank you for sharing.

[@gayatripatel7464]

Beautyfull.very nice

[@Pixlanta]

❤️❤️❤️👍🏼thank you, I love how you teach , so thorough and you don't leave me hanging, you follow me and guide..I'm no longer as scared as a beginner..also thank you for telling me how many chains in the beginning and telling me how long the chain should measure That's really helpful as my tension is tighter than yours. You're a pure talent..thank you so much...can you crochet a cape with hood as future project or a kimono cardigan?

[@CraftingShed]

Yes, I will take note of your suggestions. Thank you!

[@berthaz2583]

Beautiful! Please tell me what are the measurements in inches before you fold it. I will need to adjust it to fit me less loose. Thank you🌷

[@vickiscaysbrook1550]

I would like to make mine in larger sizes . How many extra chain do I need to do . Thanking you in advance. Love your tutorials .

[@jeaneanemiller7359]

How many starting chains for a larger size. I Like the openness for evening.

[@CraftingShed]

The pattern is a multiple of 10 chains + 3. I'm not very sure but maybe add another 30 or 50 chains for starting chains. But please feel free to estimate. Stick to 10 + 3 and you'll be fine. Thank you!

[@jeaneanemiller7359]

Crafting Shed thank you so much

[@silvialanus2103]

Love it! You said using hooks H and J , you are working with J so what about H? Any of them can be used as it depends in ones gauge? thanks for sharing.

[@CraftingShed]

I use the size H hook when I did 1 last row of double crochet in the bottom of the shrug. But you're right, both of them can be used depending on your preference. Thank you for asking.

[@silvialanus2103]

Thanks, I am going to start with it right now.

[@al-obidy4800]

Hello..... this Bolero is very beautiful I have a question if I have balls of cotton weight 50 grams. How much ball do I need to do this bolero؟ if my body size is 40.

[@suzannemcelwee206]

Want to make this shrug but link to pattern not working?

[@lucyhernandez3408]

what size will be will it be a large

[@sonjabirch8583]

Hello Crafting Shed, I don't know if you are aware, but this advert Watson at work health are is freezing on the end, an no tutorial can be seen, I have found this on quite a few tutorials, an have given up trying to see them. maybe you can sort this problem.. tia. :)

[@CraftingShed]

Yes, I will check on it. Thank you for letting me know.

[@annstuartthacker4608]

Link to pattern does not work. Please I love the pattern!

[@lisaurz784]

How many chains for 3xl

[@annashelton5884]

PLEASE!!! Tell me what I'm doing wrong. I have made this twice and it never comes around to the front like the one posted. It only comes under the armpits. I have made it longer and wider and I used the same measurements suggested. I really love this shrug and want to make for a friend.

[@CraftingShed]

Thank you for asking. This shrug does not really come around to the front unless held together (to the front) just like in the picture. But it does not come just under the armpit either. This just hangs right by the shoulder just like a regular shrug. You said you made it longer and wider already, that would be one of my suggestions. Also, when you attach the side together to make an armhole, don't make the attachments too wide, mine is about 5 inches, a bit lesser would be probably work for you. Bottomline, make the shrug opening wider. I hope this helps. Thanks again.

[@antoinettebilocca9868]

Thank you for sharing hope to make it soon lovely.

[@annashelton5884]

THANKS! I will try making making arm holds more narrower.

[@debras2845]

Can you provide pattern link? It is not there. Thanks

[@adinace]

[@melodied4314]
