I have loved crocheting this beautiful scarf! I gave a scarf to my brother, dad, and boyfriend this year at Christmas. Thank you, Bonnie! 🎄❤️

[@suzannewalker4432]

A perfect gift for the wonderful men in my life - husband, three sons and two older grandsons. Just in time for Christmas🎄. Thank you🙂

My pleasure Suzanne!

I have not tried this yet, but I watched the whole thing! I want to tell you that you are amazing. There are just a few of you out there who have the ability to make the most difficult things understandable. You are definitely one of them. There are things I have had questions about for years, and when I go to your channel I always find definitive answers and or a better way of doing what I need. Thank you for your time and dedication. Youe are a treasure!

Thank you for blessing me today with your kind words Julie! We all need this these days. God bless you !😊❤️

[@amydavis4945]

Well. It's truly beautiful and I'm sure my husband would have LOVED this, but try as I might I just can't figure it out. You move WAY too fast and I keep backing up the video and trying to watch, and back up and watch and back up and watch. Sorry, but this is just WAY too difficult to follow - and I've been crocheting for 40+ years and very familiar with every stitch you are doing. The problem is, it seems like you are skipping over a lot of stitches (or I was) and the scarf just gets narrower and narrower. Again, this is a very gorgeous pattern, but the tutorial is just too tough to follow due to how fast you are going and the dark yarn on a dark background. I very much appreciate the time you took to do this, and hope there are many out there that can replicate this! It just won't be me. 😢

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Amy Davis you can change the speed of this video by clicking on the gear shaped icon in the lower right of the screen. You will need to stop the video to do this. Select a slower playback speed and then you are good to go. If using a cell phone click the 3 vertical dots in the upper right of the screen.

[@yazbethtorreblancahernande5678]

Oh no that will then be harder for me beginner😭

[@julietasolari7459]

Yes, it's difficult and frustrating to see that your partial results are not equal as her's, but if you try to understand the logic behind, you will be able to nail it. I've been watching the video and trying to do it over and over again for a whole day and I realized that I wasn't following the logic, and that helped me to understand what she was doing. Now, after a day of trying, I could finally finish my 12th row. My problem was that I was only trying to copy exactly what she was doing (I had to put it in 0.25x in some parts), but as you said, sometimes you can't see exactly where she is placing the hook, so I had to guess. The thing is that you need to guess with some kind of logic. Another thing that happened to me was that I was carrying errors from other rows, so you also have to be careful with that. You also have to guess where could you have gone wrong.

[@phyllisdowner841]

Bonnie, your videos always inspire me to do more than I think I can, and now I know that I can!! Thank you and God bless

[@karenbobb3399]

I am really struggling with this video. I have done a few other cable stitches and I think its because the background is dark and the yarn is dark. 1/18/21

[@lindayoung9556]

I agree. I am struggling as well. Wish the yarn color had been lighter. I am a lefty as well so the cable step going from the back is challenging!

[@CraftsbyTheeRose]

Hello I cannot really understand exactly what you're doing. is not clear. I mean the beginning of it was pretty much understandable. but as you got into the rest of it, no I'm not able to understand how you're doing those cables.. Sorry.

I am experienced with crochet but found this video extremely difficult to follow. Way too fast, even with all of my pausing. I gave up after the 9th row.

[@sherrimccusker6697]

I love pattern but couldnt get past the first cable set that you did from behind going through the hole from the back. I was able to follow the rest across the row. Unfortunately, I couldnt do that one set so had to stop and find a different pattern.

[@msteacupcake4168]

[@suelou56]

Fellow crocheters: Top right corner of your KZbin video is a wheel. You CAN SLOW DOWN THE VIDEO by touching this wheel cog. Regular play vs slow down. Check it out. I love her videos but seem to slow them down by doing this.😊

[@debbiesalmon6462]

It’s a pity you used a black background as it makes it harder to see. I love the pattern and am making it for my husband. Perhaps a white cloth or paper would make it easier to watch what you’re doing. (Or I may need new glasses🤪)

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

We are all on a learning curve, myself included. Thanks for your patience.

[@deborahblondeau4073]

The background is dark, the yarn is dark, & you keep covering up the stitches you’ve just completed as you pull more working yarn. I simply cannot understand Row 9. I‘ve played it at slower speed, & replayed it COUNTLESS times, with no luck. I cannot get the second crossover in row 9 to work, no matter what I do. I end up with a loop around the back cables, and a bar across the front. It’s a nightmare! What am I doing wrong?

[@heatherjones9090]

I tried it 3 times it to hard for me i never get it right

[@christinegilbert2343]

I'm really struggling with row 8 (crossing the cables). I just can't get the hang of it. I've watched the other tutorials and still no luck ☹️

[@barbaramackeigan2063]

My vision isn’t what it used to be, but you had a black background and dark yarn. I liked the cable pattern but due to all the darkness, unfortunately it was beyond me.

Such a beautiful scarf, but by far the MOST frustrating thing I have ever tried to do. Once the cable crossing starts...that's where my project goes sideways. I originally bought the pattern, got confused, found the video....and was left even more confused. I don't know what I'm doing wrong but it looks like utter crap. :( Was hoping to give it to my friend for xmas, but I don't think that will be happenning now.

Its a lot easier to think this through as crocheting 10 rows then repeat rows 7 , 8, 9, 10. The way you do it, saying "row eleven is actually a repeat of row 7, then you do "row 12, is actually a repeat of row 8." Then you say " row 13 and forward repeat rows 9 through 12." Thats confusing to me. because of the repeating repeats. Also, your tag line says something about doing row 9 and 10 once again before starting the ribbing, but you didn't mention it. so folks, be ready for your ribbing to start in the wrong place if you are crocheting and not reading the words at the bottom.

Hi Bonnie, I can’t wait to try this pattern after making two of your Butter popcorn scarves 🧣. My question is how long was this scarf?

[@deniser362]

I am on row 8 and I’m sorry to say but your directions are so hard to follow. You don’t really explain nor do you show what you’re doing very well. I’m trying to make this for my mom but I’m having such a hard time following this. I realize that this isn’t for the beginner, but if you’re making a video to show people, then it has to be simple enough for us to follow. I really like the design so I hope I can finish it.

[@rebeccatucci1755]

This has to be one of the most beautiful patterns with the most horribly done tutorial (and the written pattern is even more confusing). I’ve been crocheting for over 20 years and consider myself an advanced crocheter. The explanations given were severely lacking and there was little time spent showing the audience where certain stitches should go.

[@geography_guy335]

I've found that when you're crossing the cables on the front side you're actually doing a back post treble when you're going from behind

[@ednawainshtein620]

Thanks for sharing a very special example. What is the width and length of the scarf?

[@smileyfrownsalot1029]

Hi! I'm leftie and I've never done cable before. Do I need to do the cable's inverted since I start from the left rather than right? For instance when you first do start the cable cross you go: skip 3, hdc, FPTC 3x, then go through *back* and do the 3 skipped for FPTC 3x. But for me is it: skip 3, hdc, FPTC 3x, go through *front* and do the 3 skipped for FPTC 3x? So what I am getting at is: am I doing everything your doing only inverted?
