Good for you Sue. Love that you are working to keep your brain sharp. I hate the saying, "Can't teach an old🐕 new tricks". I say excuses, excuses, they're like A-holes, we all have'em and they all stink! We should all try to continue learning no matter the age. God bless you 😘

Today is the first time i went to my grandma’s house since she died over two years ago. I was totally overwhelmed by nostalgia and grief and love all mixed together. I found her old knitting basket and inside was a project that I had started with her over 20 years ago (a pot holder lol) that I abandoned because it was too hard for me. She saved my little scrap of messy yarn all these years 🥺❤️ I feel a longing in me to try it again in her honour and I have to say, this video was WONDERFUL! Perfect pace, easy to follow, and it touched my heart that you added in a tip from your own grandma about threading the needle ❤️ thank you so much for your time and guidance

Honestly I wasn’t a complete expert in crochet, but I knew how to chain before this video. So this was an incredibly big help for me! If your struggling then I’ll explain what you’ll have to do! 1.Learn how to chain in a different video.(if you have a friend who crochets then I would reccomend asking them for help) 2.figure out what hand position works best for you. ( it doesn’t have to be a popular hold.) Like I hold my yarn completely different then any of the videos I’ve watched) 3. Now you watch this video and learn a single stich! If you have a friend who crochets, then ask them for help! ( having a imperson teacher is much more helpful!) PLEASE KEEP TRYING TO CROCHET!!!! I’ll give you my updates Week 1:I learned how to chain and I like two different hand positions. Week 2: I’m struggling with how to chain neatly but I’m able to move my my hand in a comfortable position!! Week 3: IM working on single stitch. My friend is also helping me!❤❤❤ Week 4: I CAN SINGLE CROCHET! Week 5: COMING SOON

For people who are really stuck, I recommend first trying a bit of finger crocheting (All it is when you create the first loop to start your project, instead of putting your hook in there, instead use your fingers to grab on to the next piece of yarn). It's much easier and it will help you get the hang of crocheting with a hook.

[@udayanthiweerasinghe7496]

I just started crocheting and loved it because of your video because other videos are quite hard.

[@cosmogaming2]

Hands down best video to learn. Thank you so much for posting. I’ve been watching other videos all week and couldn’t make a single chain lol I just made so many watching this, so easily. there is a crucial step you verbally explain that other videos do not- when you are going to yarn over, you have to flip the hook down before you pull it through, which I was skipping completely, so it just kept twisting and not making the connection. So I finally did it. Onto the next step. Thank you!

This really helped, I had no idea how to start a new row, even after several videos, I finally realised how to do it after watching this

[@andreachurch4364]

[@genevaharris9016]

This is more than great for super SUPER beginners like me. It took me a week to comprehend what i was seeing at first lol. No even kidding x.x But aftet that week your video alone clicked in my mind finally and i am well on my way to making a scarf for my toddler! Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu for teaching us

[@udayanthiweerasinghe7496]

I loved this video it helped me so much as other videos were hard but your video was so encouraging an after lots of tries I finally did it thank you Kristin so much

[@margaret-b6y]

I have been trying to learn how to crochet for years but having watched this tutorial today and the way you describe and show how to start I am really looking forward to follow your programme.. I am due to retire and have been knitting for many years and do many other crafting projects along with sketching and painting. I have always wanted to crochet, now I can follow you and start learning, very clear instructions from you make it less daunting.

[@go1daishy]

Wow! This amazing! I tried crocheting back in 2014 and I thought it wasn’t for me. I was so frustrated. Now 5 years later, I’m glad I found your helpful video to guide me through the beginning of a new hobby. Thanks!

Ive been trying to learn for 2 years and im starting to tear up but this is the best tutorial ive ever seen

oh my goodness its 3 am and I'm having a mental breakdown. HOW THE HECK DO PEOPLE DO THIS SO EASILY?

[@abijahdixon2771]

Dont give up! It is really hard at first. Take a break from it and come back. Do each type of loop or stitch until you get it. Most tried as kids and got too frustrated at first, but came back years alter and finally got it after a lot of perserverance.

Thank you for the simple explanation!!!!!! I learned some from from my grandma when I was a child but forgot until my daughter expressed interest. She and I are learning together now. Again thanks!

[@motley100]

The most valuable thing you just taught me is that it's normal for my first couple of rows to twist. I've been tearing it all out to start over thinking it's wrong. Thank you! And thank you for going so slow! 💓

[@BellaKnowssBestt929]

Bro everytime I start on my first row it starts to look like a rope, it awful.

[@dilshanchiththananda2376]

Hi,I am from Sri Lanka, I just started to learn and it's very clear and I like the way you teach. thanks.❤

[@lily-hv1oi]

This is very stressful and hard update: it's been 15 mins and I still can't do it! ugh!! update: I DID THE FIRST LOOP update: I messed up and I have to redo it... ugh update: I DID THE SECOND LOOP... but I pulled it too tight I am just going to keep practicing but my gosh this is HARD!!!

[@allisterking1868]

Keep going!! Once you get used to it, the effort will feel rewarding, rather than stressful. You got this! Every practice session counts :-)

[@Demetriosssss]

Keep up the work you got it!!!

Keep going, mine is still lopsided but each one is better than the last.

@@inhle1688 It's going really good, I learned how to do the single crochet! it's easier once I got the movements down!

[@rozsmith6850]

I've been crocheting for a long time, and do things so automatically that I forget the details if I'm showing someone. This is the best "starting from the beginning" video I've ever seen! Thank you!

I’m so grateful to you for doing this video! I had to rewatch it several times to finally get it, but you explained it so well. I had given up learning how to crochet... but thanks to you... I’m at it again. 💕

[@aylabear6464]

This is the best video I’ve seen. I’ve been so frustrated trying to do this and you actually make it make sense.

[@madcrowwitch]

This video is just about perfect. Lots of videos out there try to teach everything at once, but I just wanted to do one thing at a time, and you perfectly explained the start and end of rows pitfalls that were turning my practice rectangles into trapezoids. Super appreciate this video, excited to see more.

[@parkerthw3242]

Excellent tutorial. Very easy to follow and not having to pause every minute was a huge help.

[@sharonwegmeyer5822]

Thank you so much! So many others seemed to assume we knew the basics even though videos would be titled for beginners!

[@annenowlin1365]

That's what others assumed-even if they said for the very, very beginner. I knew you MEANT IT, I mean the VERY beginner/virgin, when you used the terms VERY SLOWLY FOR THE BEGINNER. You started out talking fast (about 6 words and then 'there was the 'music' of SLOW!!!

[@gothica3605]

Lol crache virgin

[@properdodgybird3611]

I'm an avid knitter and have failed soooooo many times at crochet but thanks to you and your slow tutorial I have finally cracked it. So grateful.

[@DaNii_1273]

I've been trying to learn to crochet for about 1 month now I bought a crochet kit but I couldn't even make 1 chain then my neighbor gave me a 9mm hook and some yarn I learned with her help I learned how to make a chain in 1 minute then I made lots of long and short chains my best friend knows how to crochet and learned the single crochet stitch yesterday I just learned it just now my Nana knew how to crochet and crocheted and knit for 50+ years I think crocheting is in my blood because I'm now catching on quickly ty to whoever reads this I'll update soon on my progress for whoever cares!

[@carleyquarnstrom7063]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I love the way you explain things so clearly, each time I had a question it’s like you could read my mind and answered it a moment later. I appreciate the slowness, I watched a few tutorials before this and was very frustrated but now I’ve got a scarf started and even though it’s messy I’m having fun!!

[@ccrn8840]

This was one of the best beginner videos I’ve seen. Everything was explained/demonstrated so well. Thank you!!

[@carolyncardone9711]

I've watched all the videos this woman that's doing this tutorial is very slow for beginners which is great and I love following her I just keep watching it over and over again

[@missdire]

Definitely this video! I've watched several and I must have managed to find the pro version of "amateur" because they made it look easy but I was completely unable to accomplish it. Everything from the way you hold your yarn to the way you explain how to hook makes this SO much easier. I had a EUREKA moment when I tried your way. Thank you!

[@KristinsCrochetTutorials]

This made me smile, thank you for taking time to comment!

[@mamachez65]

You’re instructions are superb. I learned how to crochet 🧶 when I was 8 from my great grandma. Granny squares and potholders. When I’ve tried to make a blanket or scarf 🧣 but the edges of the rows it gets longer or shorter. I wanted to see what I was doing wrong and you clearly explained it. Thank You so much. I’m off to practice. 🙏

[@MagicallyTaraSimone]

THANK YOU for this video! I watched two others before it and kept messing up & having to start over. After 2 hours I was about to give up and decided to give it one more try! You made it way more simple and slow enough I could actually follow along ❤️ I’ve been crocheting for a few hours now and actually making progress on it 👏🏼 Thank you!

[@rasheedamurad5931]

Hi Kristine, I really want to learn how to crochet, besides the sc do you make a slow vidio on a dc? If so where can i find it, thank you so much for your patience, appreciated. Bye.

[@Almisnedsarah]

I watched 10 videos before i actually learned how to do this sis 😂

[@brickchains1]

i havent even watched this but you are a SAINT for even having the idea. this is on my CRUCIAL AND MY FASHION pliaylists. may you walk under your blessings miss

[@NaizWingIt09]

Finally, I am able to do it. I have to use the terms you are using on here. Then, I gradually use the terms for crocheting. Thank you, so much.

[@andreahancock1071]

Thank you so much. I have just bought my first hook. Looking forward to seeing all your videos.

[@stephanielluna-garces1693]

I´ve been crocheting for a couple of months, watching every video I can find for technique, and I´ve even done a few projects. However, I always had questions and everyone goes too fast or neglects some simple thing and I end up with something funky. This is the BEST video for beginners ever!!! My problem was with the first row, never knowing where exactly to put the hook, so I was going through only the top of the stitch. I could see how it had to go through at the V and catch two stitches. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Thank you!!!! I learned how to crochet from my aunt as a kid but don’t remember and have been trying to learn the past week. This is the only tutorial that helped me with singles. Now I feel confident to keep learning. I’m not sure if you still make tutorials but I’m going to dive into the rest of your channel!
