I made earrings with your pattern using embroidery thread and a 0.60mm needle and I have to say that tutorial was so easy to follow and it turned out great! Thanks so much!!!

[@KristinesDay]

I’m so happy to hear that! 🥰 I bet they look amazing! 😍❤️

[@marcywhitbeck8234]

Loved this tutorial and the shape it gives the leaves. Just went and purchased the Etsy pattern to support and also because I prefer written instructions! Thank you!

Your instructions are so clear...thank you so much❤

You are so welcome! 🥰💗

[@Hofberaterfuchs]

Can you please try to make the leaf three times as big...? And do a video of that. They look SO GOOD!!!

[@KristinesDay]

Thanks so much! 🥰🤗 I can try to add that to my to-do list 😄

[@annyants4726]

That's a great idea! Looking for a bigger one, too.

[@Hofberaterfuchs]

I would also be willing to pay for the pattern btw!

[@meady50]

Awesome! Im going to try to make a granny square around this. I think it would be doable because of the leaf’s round shape. The leaf was exactly what I needed though, thank you!

[@KristinesDay]

Exactly my plan for the next tutorial - to make it into a granny square! 🙈 great minds think alike! 😄 Glad this was helpful! 🥰🤗

[@meady50]

@@KristinesDay what a coincidence! 😅 I’ll definitely still be watching that haha. Also unrelated, but I have a question. I have a pattern for a small bird that would fit inside of a granny square but I’ve been stumped for days trying to actually design the granny square around it, because of the odd shape of the bird. Would you have any advice for working a square around such an odd shape? If needed I can write out the pattern (only if you wanted to mess around with it of course) for the bird. It’s a very short and simple pattern though have a great day!

[@KristinesDay]

@@meady50 sure! 🤗 Feel free to share the pattern with me, I will have a look when I have a chance 😊

Could someone please provide a written explanation? I really appreciate that format! I did manage to finish one leaf, but it took me quite a while. Thank you!

[@ingeestrada694]

LOVE this leaves and the way you explain each step makes it seem easy. Is there a way to make them bigger? So they can work as glass coasters?

[@KristinesDay]

Thank you! 💚 It would require some playing around to make it longer and make the sides bigger.

[@xbchng]

I was thinking the same thing! Have you tried and figured it out yet?

[@gwilly-mh7lm]

@@xbchng I used Loops &Threads Classic Cotton. It is 109m/70.9g with 5.5mm hook. The leaf I made is big enough for a glass coaster.

[@nafisaazmin8650]

This was great..can you also make a tutorial for the viral flower coaster pot🌸❤️

[@KristinesDay]

I will add this to my list! 🤗

[@slyfoxie94]

The girl who made the original, has a tutorial on her yt page.

[@luckycarebear9406]

If I was to use wire would I use it maybe on last row? I wanna make a mini plant with this pattern

[@KristinesDay]

yes, that should work :)

[@esterr105]

My god this is the cutest

[@KristinesDay]

Thank you! 🥰

[@melissacottrill6535]

Ty for this tutorial. It was very easy to follow!

[@KristinesDay]

I'm glad to hear that! 💚

[@annkristinfelchner6929]

Hey thank you so much for the pattern. I have done a few leafs already but they are always curling up. Yours look so flat. Any tips on how to get there? Do you make the first chains very loose or how does it work for you? Thank you 😊

[@elig7087]

I made this recently, and mind turned out flat! I would check to make sure the yarn you're using is the right kind, and that you're not pulling too hard when you make a stitch. I do everything pretty loose, and tighten up after if needed.

[@KristinesDay]

Thank you for sharing your advice! I can second that! 🙌 Perhaps you can also try to stretch it as you go and make the chains in the base a little looser :)

[@anandazen30]

Beautiful! 🪴

[@KristinesDay]

Thank you! 🥰

[@FitArii]

I’m a bit confused when I repeat the process for the other side do I chain 12 again ?

[@KristinesDay]

Once you reach the end, you have to do 12SC on the other side to get those the beginning or top of the leaf. 10:15

Any idea on how and when i can attach wire? So i can put my monsteras into a pot

[@KristinesDay]

I would attach it at the end by weaving it through the middle part of the leaf :)

[@JulissaDelRios]

Hi hi! I purchased this written pattern on Etsy and it’s not working😭 is there any way you could help me?

[@KristinesDay]

@@JulissaDelRios hey! Thank you! 🤗 To access pattern, you have to be logged in your Etsy account from desktop browser or mobile web browser like Safari. Then go under your Purchase section and that’s where you will be able to download it 😊

[@KristinesDay]

I think you have purchased two of the same pattern (if it’s you). I have refunded one of them since I can see that the other is downloaded. Let me know if this is a mistake 😊

[@JulissaDelRios]

@@KristinesDay THANK YOU🤍

[@madhudarish9142]

Who the heck named this cute leaf as MONSTERa 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@KristinesDay]

right?! 😆

[@johanriekert9571]

That’s the plants name

[@alannahorne7918]

Because these plants grow to be like 40ft tall with leaves that can reach up to about 4ft in diameter... they are MONSTEROUS. Plants are often named in Latin, so looking at it from that point of view it just means it's very big.

[@ahryannechristfloresdatu1808]

Because of their huge size

[@schmdtta8106]

I think it sounds really good

[@tessterrosser]

I'm confused on how to flip this to other side and repeat the steps and the stitches match front and back??

[@KristinesDay]

Turn the work on the other side so you can start adding stitches there. It will be the same stitches as on the initial side 🤗

Good pattern but I only managed to keep up because I have a bit of experience. if I had just begun it would be too too fast for me. Try slower next time

[@KristinesDay]

Thanks! Try adjusting the speed to of the video if it’s too fast :)
