Wow did not know it was this easy to put a zipper in! Im very impressed! Thanks so much! That pouch is cute! ❤❤

[@symz8229]

Thank you. Thank you. That was easy to understand. I can now place a zipper for a bag. Please continue your work. I love how comprehensive this tutorial is.

[@ginaaragon5779]

I love it Mikey! Could easily add a small handle and convert it into a wristlet too. Such a fun little 👛 ❤😅

[@krystasimmons8611]

Thank you, this gives me enough time to make some of these for back to school !

[@heidihasenjager889]

Oh my goodness! I've been so excited ever since you told me you were making this tutorial. Thank you thank you thank you. Now I can make a custom bag for my crochet hooks.🥰

[@jeannebeverly1244]

What an absolutely brilliant idea!💜

I’ve used this technique a was taught by Tinna who makes beautiful mosaic designs here on KZbin. My suggestion would be to use a sharper needle when making your base stitches.

[@Value1lady]

I agree that blunt one looks like a struggle.

[@lindastout452]

And strenuous on the finger tips. That's why I use the embroidery thread and a sharp needle.😊❤

[@the-painted-quilter]

Ok. Time for me to go get that cardigan and sew in the zipper❤

[@Addicted2Yarn1]

Or use a sharp steel crochet hook, you can just puncture the zip from the top then pull up the loops of yarn when you pull the hook back out!

[@tonksndante4809]

@@Addicted2Yarn1 Smart. I'm going to try this. Have my spare zipper ready in case I ruin it though 😂

[@furtadogerrior]

I have tried all different ways to get a zipper worked in and this is the easiest way I've tried. Thanks so much now I can remake the pouch I started and never finished. It will look a lot nicer with even spaces. You know, it's taking time away from my cruise homework, LOL. I know I have over a year but I already started.

[@semperfeist1998]

Just finished making 40 zipper pouches. I used a blanket stitch for the beginning and left it connected to the skein so no end to weave.

[@1970anfield]

Wow

[@alohacrochetbynaomi156]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. ❤

[@flash963]

Oh, thank you Mikey! When I saw you making a small zippered pouch the other day, I was curious as to how you attached the zipper first. You must have read my mind. LOL

[@those_eyes]

Great idea!!! Thank you, Mikey!

[@brookemorrow7727]

STOP 🛑 I cannot believe I missed this yesterday!!! OMG I've been wanting to make something crochet with a zipper, but felt too intimidated, I'm so glad you have this video! How fun is this for little Christmas gifts for friends?

[@arielbenjamin821]

i'm about 5 rows in and my zipper pouch is looking like a banana. is this kind of bend normal at first? will it straighten out as I go on or have I done something wrong?

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

It should.

[@deborahb2lil2latemashburn]

Thanks Mikey, and I hope all was well with whomever was yell during the live when you were working on this bag♥🧶
