Hi Mia! Welcome to the Shell Stitch Bag CAL! We've been enjoying these too 😁

[@melindadiven]

Jayda that is a beautiful tote bag , i love the colors and that my favorite color and purple is too

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Melinda! Thank you 😊

[@tfallinbbq]

Sorry i missed the love but the replay is so fun. I don’t read patterns very well, some are confusing, so thank you for the videos.

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Theresa! I agree, some patterns can be very confusing! We write our patterns the way we structure our tutorials 😊 If you want to improve your pattern reading skills, we have an entire webpage full of free patterns, most of which have a tutorial to go along with it. You can read the pattern as you watch the tutorial and this often helps things "click" when you're still learning. Our free pattern page is here: jaydainstitches.com/workshop.php

[@tfallinbbq]

Thank you. I just read I wrote love instead of live. Lol. You knew what I meant and I will be checking out those patterns.

[@roserenik6375]

Awsome tutorial can't wait for further installments. I will have to see it on the replay again tomorrow.

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Rose! Thank you 😊

[@seh-s]

Oh this is perfect! ☺️ I need to make a new bag, can't wait for the next part,thank you! Also you two crack me up 😂 🙏🏻

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Sarah! Welcome to the new CAL!

[@biancaglawan7150]

I made a Marketbag and ateched a little bag to put the bag in if you don't need it and pull it out to use. The little bag gives you space for your list or money.😊

[@JaydaInStitches]

Lovely idea Bianca!

[@trinaphi]

Ì can not believe I missed you today! I will watch and complete this before next part. PLUS I bought 5 new balls of cotton in beautiful colours, so I'm all prepared but missed the point you were doing it today 🤪🤪🤪. C u next time. Love being with you all. 💜😘

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Trina! You can catch up no problem, we only got to about row 7 today (tutorial is linked in the description box if you want to speed through the pattern 😁)

[@lynnette1897]

Thanks!

[@JaydaInStitches]

Thank you so much AGAIN Lymette ❤ We appreciate it so much!

[@reanne7932]

I missed the first bag live event. Hopefully I'll get to see y'all soon. Keep on

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi ReAnne! We're going again today, hopefully without the software glitches we started with yesterday 😂

[@jaanaffi]

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Kati! booo meetings!! Thank you for stopping by 💗

[@aussiesandy]

Jayda & Mr Institches so sorry missed the live guys being in Aussie the time difference sometimes makes it hard. I will definitely watch the replay. Big hugs to you both.🫂

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Sandy! We totally get that 💗 Thank you for popping in when you had time!

[@Maryking5779]

missed the live, but i love the color and it seems like a great idea, will have to try it

[@JaydaInStitches]

HI Mary! Welcome to the new CAL!

[@susangetzschman4029]

Yes mam

[@gramcracker2023]

I’ve made almost a dozen market bags. I still haven’t kept one for myself. Lol!!

[@JaydaInStitches]

LOL!

[@책읽는라디오-w4d]

😊색조화가 예쁩니다.

[@JaydaInStitches]

Thank you for watching 😊

[@katherineserrano9076]

Watching yesterday's to catchbup

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Katherine!

[@ronii1975]

Hi Jayda, I’ve just checked my yarn stash and I only have one cake of the Caron cotton ripple cakes yarn. I’m going to use the Coboo yarn instead. I hope this works 🤞🏾

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Ronii! For the Shell Stitch Bag, you can get away with a lot of different kinds of cottons (or blends) as long as they're on the strong side...but since you're using at least 2 strands, it will make it stronger by default 😊

[@ronii1975]

Hi Jayda, can I use the Caron cotton ripple cakes to make the market? It’s 60% cotton and 40% acrylic? Thank you ❤

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Roni, give it a stretch test. If it's a stretchy sort of yarn, it might not be best for this project. If it's not stretchy and feels strong, then it should be fine 😊

[@brendachilders1282]

What size hook are you using,?

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Brenda, I'm using a 7.00 mm but 6.5mm is ok too (project notes are now in the description box 😁)

[@glendastanley9412]

hi im glenda from greensboro NC

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Glenda!

[@rhondapainter3028]

Where are you located

[@mariarichards8229]

UGH, I missed it. My notification didn't work for today's live.

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Maria, we had issues with KZbin today too, might have been a big glitch!

[@raggedyann4372]

The background noise makes it hard to watch, sorry it’s too distracting.

[@lydiakibler3300]

Yes the background noise it's hard to watch if you going to do

[@lorraineclement7279]

How does the gifting of a membership work? Old brain not functioning 😂

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Lorraine! There's a video on that here by KZbin that explains it better than I can 😁: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2nFZXWhe9RnoJI

[@crocusconnections8202]

Watching this recording today but have to say the cha Chings on a recorded video is very disconcerting

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Crocus! We don't edit our lives for replay, so as it happened in real time is how it lives forever on the internet 😂

[@sandrataylor3723]

I love your patterns, but I had to stop watching because there was too many interruptions while you were showing how to crochet the bag. Hope you had a good day.

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Sandra! Live streams can be wild like that 😊 The original tutorial is linked in the description box if you want to try the bag out 💗

[@ellenlowery6497]

Sorry to say your last few videos have been hard to follow. Your beginning doesn’t start like you old ones. Never know if it will start or what

[@JaydaInStitches]

Hi Ellen, there is a big difference between our videos and our live streams 😊 Our live streams are live, not pre-recorded (and the titles always say filmed live or 'live stream' plus below the video player it will say "streamed so many days or hours ago) Once the live stream is over, it "archives" and becomes viewable from start to finish much like any other video on the internet, but there is no editing and it just starts and finishes as it did when it was live. Add to that, we occasionally have some technical problems, live streaming isn't without it's issues! 😂
