Mosaic Crochet Purse - Full Tutorial

[@annespun]

This is so fabulous! I absolutely love finding tutorials that really stand out, and this one does. Thank you for sharing! I love doing this kind of crochet, even though I am a knitter and spinner mostly. But this kind of crochet pattern made me want to learn to crochet.

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

Wow ❤️ thank you so much. You just made my night 🥰✨😘

[@sinetheawhy]

I have been glued to my I pad for over an hour watching this and I have to start making dinner now but I have to tell you: 1) I am definitely going to attempt this, 2) you are a brilliant teacher, 3) the pace and length are just fine, and 4) I realized there haven’t been any ads. Maybe there were at the very beginning but I don’t even think you had that. You crazy? Make some compensation! This was a lot of work.

[@annettehachey7909]

Well I bought 6 different colours of this yarn but now that I've begun, I realize it's too thin 😭. I think I might try to double it, what a nightmare. I can't afford to buy more of this yarn as I'm looking at probably $50 off etsy.

[@Melkeller3628]

Oh My Gosh, I grew up in Germany and my german grandmother used to tell me the same thing: Langes Fädchen, faules Mädchen ! which translates to: long thread, lazy girl ! I just discovered your channel yesterday. I did the first Beginners guide and I fell in love. Thank you soo so much !

[@dessyedeeclark1144]

Your voice is lovely, so I don't mind watching you struggle to pull up the thread. Reminds me of a number of sewing struggles of my own and the importance of persisting to create a professional finish. This is couture crochet. I already save zippers, can't wait to make some purses.

The fast forward button is only used on video's that bore people. I find watching your videos relaxing and makes me feel like Im also crocheting with you. The struggling with yarn, etc. shows me that when I try it, that its normal to not be perfect. Btw love your nails, beautiful color.

[@primel6508]

"I like it, that you giggle a lot! You have a good sense of humor. And though you take it serious enough to teach us properly how to crochet such beautiful things. I love that patterns. Thanks!" Definitely, I try it, after I,'m ready with knitting the socks for my hubby.

[@kerrislazyoakcrafts9607]

I made a purse and a little bag for a Christmas gift. The purse took me three days to crochet in the zipper. The little bag I made then sewed the zipper in. Yesterday my mom said she saw where someone ran a stitch around the zipper and crocheted around that. I wonder if it was you she saw. I found you today and will be making a lot of bags now. I wanted to sell mine but never liked the closures I tried, now I don't have any excuses. THANK YOU for the help!!!!! I love your enthusiasm!!! I don't know many people who giggle as much as I do. God bless you!!! Merry Christmas!!!!!!

[@AnonymousAmyMakes]

Am I the only one who dances to the intro music?!?! 💃🕺 What a fantastic surprise!!! Seeing you just made my night!! 💕💕💕 What a coincidence... I just stocked up on zippers 😉 Unfortunately, my thrift store doesn't usually have zippers. I do already have this pattern. I've made one. My issue was that the zipper area seemed to be wider than the rest of my little purse. Kind of like it flared out at the zipper. Of course I still use it! But I'd like to figure out how to stop that from happening. I just love your energy and laugh. You seemed extra giggly this time. 😂🤣 I catch myself answering you or talking to you during your videos. I talk to myself quite often too 🤣😂 You are just too funny!! I can go on and on, but I'll stop here 😂🤣 Please keep adding videos... we all enjoy your company so much Tinna 💕💕

if you cannot find zippers at the thrift store... check out the clothing in the children's area (to get the smaller size) and see if there aren't some on the mark down section... also look for nice buttons on clothing... buttons get expensive for the nicer ones... One more thing... check out yard sales too... clothing is less expensive there...

[@His-Joule]

I have no idea or clue how you suddenly out of nowhere popped up on my thread but honestly I am beyond thrilled that you did. I am extremely “ visually oriented “ so your opening video captured me completely. I live in Alaska so the visuals here are incredible ( yep I get to see Denali ( most unfortunately know it as Mt McKinley ) for free all the time lol ) - but what caught me almost to the point of being breathless was seeing your Afghan/blanket that you wore. That for me personally is the most majestic and stunningly beautiful crochet work I have ever seen and in my 71 years on this earth I have seen many. I love your giggle and your references to your G’ma I absolutely love it. Your zipper clutch/ purse pattern is just too fabulous so needless to say I’m going to give it a shot. Oh and I love your teaching technique- you rock Girl!!! warm hugs from Anchorage Alaska ✨💫🤗🤗🤗🤗💙💗💕💜💫✨

[@robintuition]

I love your videos!! I know this is an older video, and you probably won't see this, but I just got to the part where you said "how would I say 'taking care to do things properly' in English?" And I would say the perfect word for that is "meticulous." You would say "It's important to be meticulous with this." It's definitely a weird sounding word, but it's perfect to describe this. Thank you for being so meticulous in showing us these techniques. ❤

[@soohiogal]

Love this! I lost my husband about 3 1/2 years ago, my mother shortly after that and have not had time to crochet (which I love) and have done since a child. Your mosaic crochet has inspired me to start again once I get all legal matters settled, sell my house and find another. Thank you so much!

[@EchoCian]

For what it's worth, I'm not here for thrilling content, I'm here for relaxing informative content that I can link to my mom and then she shows up with the mosaic tutorial piece the next day. I've found it helps a lot to prevent tangling with normal embroidery floss to keep a finger (usually my little finger) near the stitching and loop the floss around it as it pulls through. It doesn't prevent tangling at the fabric level, but it does reduce it and make it easier to fix. I don't know if that works with the way you need to hold the zipper for this project, but I figure the tip might help somebody.

Ooo! Can't wait to try this. So glad to find your channel. BTW that sewing needle threader that you have laying there is the ideal tool for getting into the tight slip stitch at the end of the row to pull the yarn through. So no matter how tight we crochet or how big the needle is there's still an easy way to get that yarn going through there.

Thank you, Tinna! You totally made my day with this tutorial. I can't wait to make some more of these sweet little purses now that I know what I was doing wrong on my foundation row. By the way, my grandmother's name is also Lola, and she's the one who first introduced me to the needle arts. I love that we have that in common! ❤

I love that!! ❤️ mine was called Þóra (like my mum( ... but since I couldn’t pronounce that as a child, LÓLA stuck ❤️❤️❤️

I love your videos Tinna! I must say that I am another that you have “hooked” on mosaic. ♥️

Tinna, you are my favorite You Tube guru. I listen to you and learn how to crochet and how to live life. Thank you for how much you give us!

[@lindabishop6561]

I just want to say how I love your videos. It's like having a friend in the room crocheting with you and you just talking along and you're so happy and upbeat. You make a lonely life not so lonely no More.. keep up the good work.

I had gotten away from crocheting, I lost my incentive after a year and a 1/2 of being isolated because of covid. But after accidentally coming across your tutorial, it has inspired me to start crocheting again. Thank you so much for your positivity, good humor and being so down-to-earth. So excited to get started. I am upstairs now, searching through my colors. Will get some zippers and start making some small to med size purses for holiday gifts. 🥰

Yay!! That’s just wonderful to hear ‼️❤️😘

Thank you for the tutorial, I learned so much. I just finished a small one, made some mistakes but it turned out better than I thought. 😊😊

Watching you stitch is therapeutic, it makes me feel calm. Can't wait to try a zipper mosaic!

[@diamondringirl]

somehow i saw your video on here. you are such a joy to listen to.. thank you for such a beautiful pattern. i have had zippers for awhile to make bags (a gal don't tell how long) and now i am confident how to turn them into nice bags.

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]
