📽️ Knit & Crochet from Film Episode 2: Howl's Moving Castle, Gilmore Girls, Winx Club

[@ikoxun]

Hello everyone! First, thank you so much for your patience! This one took a toll outta me but it was worth it

[@trinitrinn]

This series is the most amazing thing ever🫶🏻 you are so talented and inspire me to keep learning to crochet. I found your channel from your first recreate video. If you’re thinking of doing another one I’d loveee to see a crochet recreation from friends❤️

[@erikalise2256]

It’s insane how much work you put into this. You’re awesome! 🎉❤

[@michellecollinsgalaviz2126]

For the Howl’s coat collar, try making a vertical stitch, maybe a single crochet rib 10-15 stitches tall so that it sticks up

[@AshleyONeil-py8sl]

I really loved the rory sweater. Something I recently learned is steeking. It may help when it comes time to sew pieces together. I only mention it because when I learned I helped me!

[@josephaaron14]

Hey! I really don’t mean to bother you at all, but i was really hoping you had some better resources on how to knit the diamond cables on rory’s sweater because I am really confused 😅 i know you tried your best to explain, i just can’t follow things as easy. Thank you so much!!! love ya

[@Magshley]

“You wouldn’t download a sweater.” My only thought watching you figure out how to knit a sweater from images alone. Impressive stuff.

[@cheetopuffz6237]

Yeah. It's like when u want to be lazy but then u end up doing more work, I do that a lot. Ikuxon is just talented😂

[@Everettalla]

You wouldn’t download a car

[@nonastewart3683]

She really said "I got lazy" after spending DAYZZZZ stressing over each piece?? That's not lazy, that's you simply reaching your limit, and that's okay!! They all look amazing ♡♡

[@cheetopuffz6237]

I agree. When ur crocheting it's important to take breaks so u don't get frustrated or burnt out.

[@peacenueve11]

Looks like whoever made rory’s sweater just wanted to test out and use ever stitch that they knew 😂

[@ikoxun]

hahahaha fr

[@SabrinaMSabrinasStories]

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but it's so amazingly coincidental in my opinion that you decided to make Howl's jacket by sewing individual diamonds together because in the book Sophie cuts up one of his suits into triangles and has to sew them all back together 😅 Amazing video, I am gobsmacked at how you managed to recreate Rory's sweater in particular!

[@imani_g_5697]

What’s it like being an ABSOLUTE ICON!?!? Seriously tho you are so creative not only with what you make and how you make it but your problem solving!

[@r0ughdraft]

I wish I could figure out how to convert the Rory sweater into a crochet pattern. I absolutely love it, definitely looks like a big comfy cloud!

[@Crocheterino]

It reminds me of the folklore cardigan from Taylor Swift. There is a youtube tutorial of a crochet version of that cardigan. Maybe it can be converted to a sweater?

[@icefox94]

there are crochet cables, so it can probably be done

[@antiromantic986]

I've done it with long double crochets, crochet cable and such. I don't have a tutorial or anything sorry, but I can say it's possible and there's a video with similar twisting pattern :] (crochet folklore sweater)

[@heidih3048]

As an experienced knitter and crocheter, to me it seems unlikely that a crochet version would work well-- it would be more stiff/less flexible and comfortable to wear, and for some textured knit stitches, such as seed stitch, there is no way to recreate a similar texture in crochet. Crochet cables also do not work as well as knit cables-- they are not flexible, and to make them, a much greater amount of yarn is used than with knitting. And the finished look is not the same. I guess I am trying to say that it is worthwhile to learn to knit as well as crochet-- though knitting is tricky at first, it becomes as easy as crochet with practice.

[@ainerobertson78]

I'm trying to do the opposite with the Howl sweater lmao. It's been my ultimate end goal project since I started knitting

[@luketcan193]

You are literally the reason I started crochet, you’re channel is so inspirational

[@ikoxun]

❤️❤️ i’m glad you’ve joined the dark side mwahaha

[@LifeOfMoss]

Same here I started with the patchwork cardigan but edited it to a full sweater

[@AikaVelasco]

Madam, thank u for the howl's cardigan tutorial you're a blessing! I don't have money to buy pattern but here you go, giving it to us for free 🥺

[@MizzBethiePage]

The Winx club outfit is incredible! I love how creative you are and how talented you are to freehand all these amazing looks!

[@sleepydrJ]

I love that you just jumped in and analyzed and recreated it ! When I started knitting, I used a pattern for my first sweater, then jumped into designing and knitting a super elaborate cable sweater for my dad. It was black long mohair held together / with charcoal wool. I had no idea that this would be considered an impossible nightmare that nobody would try. I didn’t go blind, and the sweater’s cables are magnificent in the right light. My dad wore it for around 25 years for holiday parties and Christmas shopping. He loved that everybody, including pretty young sakes girls insisted on petting and stroking “The Sweater”. So jump in, create, and be proud if the magic that can happen. In your case, I guess swatching would have led you to finer yarn or smaller needles, at any rate, you could have done a little math to estimate how big it was going to be. (no judgement here) But on the other hand, it still looks terrific on you, and will be fun to wear.

[@lanie7569]

the rory sweater is genuinely so impressive, and so is everything else!! you're so talented!!

[@vivianc.c.3379]

On the how's jacket: maybe you could thread a thin wire into the outer part of thecollar to make it stay up? Or thread cotton yarn within the outer part? So you won't need to do it again to give the effect you want.

[@Screamsintovoid]

These are all so amazing!! The fact that you take so much time to try and make it as accurate as possible even when the thing your making wasn’t even crochet/knit Originally is so cool you are an amazing knit/crocheter

[@Eliaskip]

I decided to make wrist warmers for my aunt for Christmas and I had never done it before, and the first one took me roughly 4 seasons of Shameless spanning over about a week and the second one literally took me like less than a day and I was so confused because the first one felt like hell to complete lmao

[@geekconn558]

Im currently working on a howl cardigan myself! Most patterns I've looked at have single crochets and I realized I don't hate myself enough to do that- I've just edited my own pattern to half-double crochets, for a more light-weight feel while keeping a bit of shape. I absolutely LOVE yours, though, you did an awesome job

[@jjkyuu.btsaep]

im an editor, but i find your channel with this acc and now im so addicted to your videos. I'm into crocheting since january of this year, and i improve a little bit. ty for always inspired me to make bette clothes pieces!

[@unachicadeargentina]

wow it's amazing how much work you put into your vids! just the amount of research, plus the hours working, plus the editing. So impressed!

Howl's jacket 😳🥺​this is the most beautiful one that I have seen so far 🥺💙💕 so neat... You deserve 10/10 calcifers even with the color mismatch 😄🥰

[@crochetyoustay]

I would LOVE to see u recreate all the outfits from winx club including all the regular stuff they wear :) each season has new outfits and I'd love to see your takes on them

[@mayissalty6279]

the way you figured out the cable sweater was really impresive!! just 1 tip, the stitches next to the diamond cable are actually just stockinette, but reverse, not garter. So you knit on the wrong side and purl on the right side. This is always the stitch that's used beside knit stitch cables because it really makes the cable pop

[@ikoxun]

thank you for the tip!

[@lavonnemacfarland7380]

I'm glad you pushed through Howl's jacket; it looks great. I rate this a 10 out of 10!

[@100akerwoods]

I been watching orange is the new black I love seeing them knit and crochet and show their work in the show

[@simmerscrossing]

When I’ve completed a couple more projects as a beginner I’m absolutely going to try to recreate your howls moving castle recreation. You are so talented! I can’t imagine the amount of time and effort that goes into these videos! So we’ll done.💖💖💖

[@Beezzkneezz]

all three creations are gorgeous bu that final piece was beautiful. you made the right decision pushing through with it. but i cannottttt imagine doing a full back panel with single crochet i would quit

[@kv7371]

I love the rory sweater, such old money -aesthetics. You can sew it in place. 10/10 for me.

[@nikkihamilton8951]

If I do it better shorting sleeve a bit before be on me, family members or Christmas gifts

[@tashirose1244]

Ikoxun🌺 you're so creative! Bravo to you for taking on such an advanced project as that Gilmore Girls sweater. Fantastic job...I know between the projects and time in putting everything together, it's not easy and yet you make it simple and fun. You are a gem 💎

[@katgetscozy]

i cannot even fathom the amount of work this took and the number of hours you must have spent. incredible, for real.

[@CRIMSONarteries]

I cannot believe the effort you put in to this video. Thank you for doing this! I…have to have a Howl jacket now. Like, immediately.

[@gabs4002]

The amount of patience you have. I wish 😫😫

[@lia5911]

i just made the folklore cardigan and rory’s sweater reminds me of it a lot! you did incredible with all of these!!

[@jennyb975]

Love your willingness to let us watch you problem solve through out your creations. You are very creative and an inspiration in my own yarn crafting journey. Loved the Rory sweater. ❤

[@Hazeltrap]

Every piece was impressive 10/10. Sending love 🥰🥰

[@laurenlarkin4112]

these are SO. incredible!!!!! like other people said, your ingenuity and creativity are amazing. how you figured out the stitches for rory’s sweater and made all the outfits look exactly like the originals?!!!? so so so cool!!!!!

[@yaevix]

I came back to this video because i impulsively decided to try the howls moving castle coat and i have no regrets :D i’m currently doing the back panel and i’m planning on wearing the finished piece to a convention later this summer

[@downinohio3wagl1ke0hio]

Hiii how many rows and stitches you did for the arms????(the pink, white and gold sperated) I'm crocheting the sweater rn and couldn't figure it outttt

[@Franky383]

I’ve searched a tutorial for the rory’s sweater for so long and yours is perfect, you’re so talented ❤

[@Ali-yo6vl]

You are incredibly smart and creative. I love watching how you dissect outfits and seeing what you come up with.

[@cassandraleexo]

I’m just starting and learning how to crochet and I love your channel!! this is literally the reason why I decided I wanted to learn since buying crocheted stuff can be so expensive. I love love love this series, you should do one with some jewelry since I plan to try and follow along and you seem to make everything pretty easy and watching you is more than helpful 🙏❤️

[@ikoxun]

i’m glad you started to crochet! and incorporating jewelry would be absolutely stunning - it’s so cool how you can combine basically anything with it, just furthering how creative you can be with it

[@bluedemartino8054]

I don’t know if someone suggested this already but you could block the collar with a water + starch mixture to make it stiffer

[@espanol2468]

Had not watched the video, but howl's cardigan looks iconic! I wish I could make something like that in the future. Very impressive

[@matthursh3414]

I could never do what you are doing, so thank you for allowing me to live through you with crafting amazing sweaters! So happy to see such amazing projects!

[@sen_diy_]

Love watching all these recreations of popular styles ! Been wanting to start a series like this myself but I can't find time for filming to save my life 😂😅 Loved your pieces!

[@Aquiwer]

I think wet blocking the Rory-sweater would take it from great to amazing

[@Emzjellybeanz]

Wow, the winx outfit looks amazing! I wouldn't even know how to attempt to recreate something flowy like that, but you actually translated it to knit so well!

[@neptunes_oeuvre]

+ the garter stitch that you did around the big cables are actually reverse stockinette ! I thought the same when I started knitting cables but it's typically done to emphasize the stockinette stitch already in the cable.

[@ikoxun]

oooo thank you for lettting me know this!!

[@tanakayyy4]

I aspire to be like you, the dedication is insane. AND HOWL'S COAT TURNED OUT SO PERFECT

[@peachy__pg]

woahh awesome job w the gilmore girls sweater !!! i’ve been knitting for a year and i would not attempt to do something like that 😭🫶🏽

Thank you for making this video I watched it about 3 months ago and when I saw the blanket I instantly wanted to make it. I started around the last week of October and I finished last week. Thank you for posting this video that gave me an idea to make it a Christmas present for my parents. I love your videos 😊

[@Abraxos333]

This is absolutely amazing. I recently started knitting and am really enjoying it. Seeing you create your own patterns like this is just so impressive and I think it’s amazing. Love all the stuff you made!

I'm very impressed by your skills for the making of your pink/bule sweater. Thanks 4 sharing, and keep up the great work.❤

[@0O0oO0oO1]

This was amazing!! Like girl, how do you knit a whole sweater from just an image?!? You are incredibly talented and I can’t wait for the videos like this in the future ❤❤

[@xxNaaviixx]

Your Rory sweater is incredible, especially as you didn’t know what each stitch was before you started 😵 great job identifying the stitches and making the pattern correctly. I’m a pretty confident knitter so I have some tips: To keep the cuffs rolled up you could tack them (sew them down in a small section) in 2-4 places around the cuff. The fibre (wool vs acrylic) doesn’t stop it from unrolling; usually a sleeve has decreases towards the wrist cuff, and if the cuff is narrower than the rest of the sleeve, it’ll hold the roll in place. Also, since the sleeve is so long and you need to roll the cuff several times it’s really heavy, which contributes to it unrolling. Furthermore, garter stitch is not very common as a “background” for cables, it’s usually reverse stockinette stitch (the purl side facing out), but they do look very similar so I can see how you got there. Either way, you’ve done a great job, keep knitting!!!

[@caitlingomez-makivirta4423]

Without you I wouldn't lnow how to even start on Rory's sweater, the only addition I have is that the smaller braided cable is actually a mock cable! If you look closely you can see an opening in the middle of it and it repeats the whole way through. Thank you for sharing your hard work!

[@ndjjiekkskkejjr]

you are so insanely talented wow after learning how to crochet you’re making me wanna transition to knitting as well

You can stiffen up the collar with starch or a mix of elmer's glue. They used starch in the old days to stiffen up crochet pieces.

I’m currently making the Howl cardigan too, but I’m following a pattern. It is very tedious! I actually took a break about a month ago to work on other projects, but this makes me want to work on it again!

[@ShesAaRebel]

I'm so tempted to make Howl's coat now! Only I think I would do it small enough to wear as a normal sweater instead of a blanket, haha. I'm a huge fan of wearable character costumes. Where to most people it just looks like a normal piece, but to fans, they know exactly where it came from.
