[@Minibus009]

wow...that's very cute skirt i like it , and thank you for sharing.

[@Dervie100]

Finally found a way to crochet a funky skirt for my six year old daughter. It worked out so well and she loves it. She tells me she wants more in other colour combinations. Thank you Claire for your wonderful, creative tutorials. You are a gem!

[@belantww]

Very cute pattern. I like it as both a skirt and a poncho! Adorable.

[@maxximmc]

That is adorable as a skirt!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hi, I have not yet attempted one, Ravelry and all free crochet are a great place to see patterns

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hi !!! Yes I remember your scarf and it is really pretty, I am glad to be back :)

[@nypeblomst]

Looks good. Maybe I'll try to make one. It's just that I have alot of unfinished work. But I can always come back and find this project

[@skh_okakok]

Wowwww its super cute as a skirt!! I love it!

[@nicolehockeygirl]

I am making mine 3 different shades of pink. I think it will be cute with a tank top for the summer.

[@CrochetwithClare]

Yes that would look very pretty also ! i will have to see how to make the edges straight

[@mgorms1952]

I love your videos. If I'm board I watch one of your videos just for fun! Love the poncho. Thanks. Mary from Chicago Illinois. :-)

[@eliskakadlecova9168]

I chose this poncho as my very first crochet project ever. And the tutorial is really good, I made it all the way!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback and for watching my tutorial

[@kathyjoseph1028]

Welcome Back Clare!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hmm not really sure LOL Looks like I wasnt happy with something :) thank you for watching

[@julliana2ify]

Love this pattern...thank you for sharing and stay beautiful

[@zabaglione]

Beautiful! For the neck I chained in sets of 4 and joined it into a ring so I didn't have to sew the ends of the chain together later.

[@googooberries]

im American and i call everything a ball of yarn in fact i didn't even know what a skein was until YT then again i just started to learn how to crochet.

[@choux8372]

Im making a skirt with peach, baby pink, lilac and off-white. Very sweet colors.

[@lluckylady2]

wonderful videos You explain things so well Thank You

[@BDensmore184]

I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoy your tutorials. They are very helpful and easy to follow. I have recently taking up crocheting in the last 4 months because when my mom was alive she crocheted and it makes me feel closer to her. I have made scarfs, hats, shawls, and blankets due to your tutorials but I can't for the life of me figure out how to follow written patterns? Do you have any suggestions on following written patterns?? Thanks, Brandon

[@CrochetwithClare]

Thank you so much and thank you for watching I can see you will be very busy making your daughters new wardrobe

[@HeathensGurl]

I absolutely love your tutorials. my mom taught me to crochet when I was 9 ( at the time i didn't want to learn but she taught me anyways) now I always have something crochet in my hands. I am currently working ( one of my many ongoing projects) on this poncho and I am using the colors Aran and BonBon. I can't wait for you next video. I have learned a few new tricks by watching you, so thank you!!

[@killianrocky3431]

I dont mean to be off topic but does someone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot the account password. I would love any help you can offer me.

[@emersonchaim5704]

@Killian Rocky instablaster :)

[@killianrocky3431]

@Emerson Chaim Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process now. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@killianrocky3431]

@Emerson Chaim it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much you really help me out !

[@emersonchaim5704]

@Killian Rocky you are welcome =)

[@CrochetwithClare]

No sorry not yet , when I have written patterns I always put the link in the more info box under the video

[@lynnbetts9600]

I prefer it as a skirt and by the way your modeling of it as a skirt was well done. You have a great sense of humour and that is why i really like watching your videos. Keep up the great videos.

[@CrochetwithClare]

Thank you Lynn, glad you get a giggle with your crochet tutorial :)

[@sreelalithan]

Thanks for the tutorial....I made poncho in rainbow colors for my daughter...it turned out really well. :)

[@CrochetwithClare]

Thank you ! I have missed making the videos

[@nereidemoon1401]

[@jenelle6132]

That is an awesome multi-use item! I shall make one! Thanks!

[@bridgethealey3231]

Wow! This is soooooooooo pretty!

[@wolfhottii]

Love the pattern and love how you make it simple to understand.

[@HelloHappiness7]

I LOVEIT!!! especially as a skirt, i've been buying and making little skirts to sit over the top of my jeans but wanted something more like this, mmm now to crack out my crochet hook, THAAAANKYOU:)

[@Ginger17]

That is so pretty. I love the colors you used.:)

[@tjacksonfrazier]

Love it. Awesome as usual Clare. Thanks so much:)

[@Emmajen]

This is super cute as a skirt! :) Love it!!

[@drswirlycrocker]

oh it's so beautiful

Great tutorial!! I love the way you explain the process. Greatings from Spain.

[@MisterMcMillin]

@bobwilson123 Thanks for your comments on the photos I posted on the FaceBook page. I'm making a scarf with the taupe and blue/brown multicolor yarn, btw. Glad to see you back at it. I hope you had enough time off, but know that you can take as long as you need. I'm hoping to finish that scarf this weekend and I will definitely share photos of the finished product. Happy Crochet!

[@CrochetwithClare]

You are very welcome thank you for watching

[@classycrochet12345]

So pretty!

[@CrochetwithClare]

HI there, I have not worked that one out yet, i have it on my list :)

[@erinkim3197]

So glad to see a tutorial today! I love it!

[@kimwheeler5168]

This is so beautiful these colors are my favorite also but I think I'd rather have a skirt

[@CrochetwithClare]

hi there, I used 3/4 of the balls you see in the video :)

[@0707serra]

I like it as a long skirt using cotton thread and beds on the points at the bottom of the skirt can't wait for you to see

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hi Mr Mc, I always call them a ball, that is what i call it LOL But what you said is the correct way :) Most Aussie's that I know call a ball (eg red heart super saver) a ball of yarn

[@breannamedina2093]

I love all of ur videos :)

[@hellokazba]

Just made a fab skirt for my daughter using this as a base

[@blsd12261999]

I love your tutorials you always do such a fantastic job....keep up the good work!

[@dontho8845]

I think this my favorite one thank you

[@CrochetwithClare]

G'day don tho thank you so much for your wonderful feedback

[@sunny-tm7cj]

Im gonna try this pattern! It's super cool!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Yes of course ! The more rows of non increase you do the slower it will get bigger Hope that made sense :)

[@cpicco]

Gorgeous Clare! Is there an actual written pattern for this? I am much better with written patterns than following along with a video. Thanks!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hi, almost, I prob had about a 1/8 of a skein left Thank you for watching

[@lilacbranches]

I take a piece of paper (tiny) wrap it around the yarn and push it thru the eye of the needle....easypeasy

[@irishdreamer25]

hi i will be making 2 of the ponchos one pink and purple and the next pink and off white more like a cream

[@ericabates5361]

Hello Claire, I have made this for myself as a Poncho 😁 Erica x

[@CrochetwithClare]

This poncho is really pretty what colour did you use?

[@inezthiem8769]

I love it, can't wait to start, but I have a few other projects to do first ;)

[@CrochetwithClare]

THank you Amy and thank you for watching

[@MrsBauckman]

I have been watching your videos for a few months -- since I started crochet! My very first "real" crochet project was the beanie. THANK YOU for making such simple videos that are easy to follow, even for newbies like me! Btw, I'm making mine from a lovely grey yarn. I can see a pink one in my future though. ;) God bless!

[@mike12168]

That is beautiful

[@choux8372]

For those of you making a skirt, make a chain that fits the widest part of your hips and work from there. The pattern is worked in multiples of 3 so keep counting 3 as you make your chain.

[@kendalldavis5389]

I'm using white, yellow,green,and purple

[@ejwrites1]

For making this a skirt. Could I actually do the increase rows every 4 rows instead of every third row?

[@tanaleealves5303]

I like this a lot. Thank you!

[@kandygrell6643]

i have 3.5 mm hook and 4 ply it is ok?

[@Montse3070]

Did you use all of the 6x200g balls? I love this and want to make sure I have enough...thanks!!!!

[@areizaganim]

i like that is so cool thanks

[@TheSascha55]

I love it, I almost got it done

[@holliehanson4395]

I want to make this as a skirt im just wondering if how u would size it is the same way just around the waist or would it be more ?

[@rashmikantpatel1719]

I love this pattern but, how do I make this with open front, not over the head.

[@sdr6702]

HELLO BOB, I LIKE YOUR MODELING. IS FUNNY

[@JenniferJerome]

Is this available as a written pattern? Luv it

[@Leresis]

Thank you! Been looking for something like this :D

[@CJMLPN]

Cute!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Thank you :)

[@Denise46000]

What about making a shawl out the same pattern..

[@beebug2749]

Hello, can you please check your video in minute 17:17? Why you did 2 double crochet only in that chain? Thanks for your soon reply

[@CrochetwithClare]

Ohhh good eye, that was a little mistake. It's only meant to be the one Double Crochet in that spot. Thank you for picking up on that.

[@CrochetwithClare]

Yes, the stitches will be smaller and you will need more rows thank you for watching

[@Corpaz69]

Muy lindo el crochet, me podrias enviar como hacerlo pero en español. Me pierdo un poco. Gracias

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hi, I am not sure why it didnt work .....

[@CrochetwithClare]

i used almost 3/4 of each colour :)

[@merchecancela8480]

Hola , tu tienes explicación del sawl de crescent moon en video?, gracias!

[@fuzzles93]

Is it possible to make a sweater with crochet... I haven't been able to find a nice pattern yet?

[@333DFG]

Awesome.

[@leahmwara1699]

i have made one today for my daughter and it very smart

[@annieantony484]

leah mwara hi GT

[@CrochetwithClare]

light periwinkle windsor blue country blue soft navy and the other labels fell off :(

[@luv4zzs]

very pretty, thnx

[@rosmoonlight3930]

wonderful

[@Montse3070]

How many balls/skeins did you use...I mean how much of each colour?

[@choux8372]

Can you make more crochet skirt tutorials?

[@gracepowell9385]

Did you use all of each skein of yarn

[@lauragankiwicz1206]

u may want to try a few extra rows to hide elastic 4 the waist

[@jewelstuck7549]

I would like to make this as a skirt for my 8 year old daughter to match a sweater vest I just made her! any suggestions??

[@CrochetwithClare]

Delta blue or something like that was the other colour

[@NiennaArcamenel]

at time stamp 17:15 you make 2 dc in same stitch but in the rest of the video you only make one? is this on purpose??

[@CrochetwithClare]

G'day Louise Kanstrup thank you so much ! I never noticed that before. yes you are correct it is a mistake, I should have only done 1 dc Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention Happy crochet ❤

[@MisterMcMillin]

Do you ever call your yarn a skein? You always refer to it as a ball of yarn, but I always thought of a ball of yarn as something that was either re-wound after undoing work or maybe an artisan yarn. When I buy yarn in a long "log" I call it a skein...any difference?

[@durriyakothari-fw6iy]

Hi I'm liking this pattern Can you guide me that every time it'll be an increase of 5 only, or you've to take more increases bcoz in your video it shows more increases

[@CrochetwithClare]

hello, sorry abou the slow reply, can you tell me at what point in the video I do more than 5 increases?

[@lillybizzo]

i love it as skirt 😍

[@dulcefg56df]

Que posibilidad hay de verlo en Español ? Me llamo Dulce y vivo en Sevilla España, gracias

[@lluckylady2]

Love this But now that I am about to become a Great Grandmother ( in July) I need an easy pattern for a baby blanket I will probably want more baby patterns in the future But right now I want to start with a blanket Can you suggest any patterns? I feel like I am still a beginner My friends think I am beyond that ( but they could be just being nice) Any suggestion would be helpful Thank You again

[@CrochetwithClare]

Congratulations :D I have some blanket patterns here www.bobwilson123.org/afghans--granny-squares.html

[@lluckylady2]

Thank You so much I truly love your videos They are so helpful and easy to understand You really make it fun :)
