I had my mom try to me this and watched several other videos. Your video is the only one that made sense to my brain. Thank you!!

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

@@kristyannbelliveau5053 Hi Kristy! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I’m so happy to hear that this has helped you! 😀 Happy Crocheting! 🧶

[@nancytyson4183]

Thank you so much. You are very easy to follow. 🎉😂 going to make some today.

[@teriwerner8889]

I am a beginner (just taught myself during COVID) and I so appreciate how each stitch you slowly showed how to do the stitch and also repeated what that stitch is called. Like I finally understand the single crochet decrease stitch and I think I will also remember this stitch name and how to do it too. As a beginner is sometimes difficult to know where in the stitch to place your hook and every time you carefully explained this. I made this towel and mine came out gift quality. Thank you for such a good instructional video.

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Hi Teri 🙋🏻‍♀️ Congratulations on teaching yourself how to crochet! 🧶❤️🤗 I taught myself as well by watching KZbin videos. 👍🏻🤗 I am so happy to hear that this video has helped you and that your project has turned out so lovely.

[@maxineaunger7119]

The best tutorial I have seen. you absolutely explained it clearly I have never crochet in my life I'm71 ,I followed you the whole time and have now made 6 towel toppers . Thank you again

[@lisapully9274]

Hello! Thank you for videoing your method of making towel toppers. I have done the sewing method, I always felt that it would come undone, it never did, but I always had that doubt. My husband has one of those pointed tools, he said I could use it. Yay for a husband who has LOTS and LOTS of tools! Lol For those that are tight crocheters, loosen your tension on the first row here or you won't be able to get your larger hook through. 😁 Happy hooking everyone!

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Hi Lisa!🙋🏻‍♀️ I apologize for not responding sooner.... 😩 KZbin just notified me of a bunch of older messages. 😩 Thank you so very much!🌺 Yes, Thank husbands with tools... That awl is mine now..... ALLLLLL mine..... ( insert evil laugh here) 😜😂 Yes! Great advice! I'm not a super tight crocheter and didn't even think to mention that!🌺

[@abi2270]

Oh my goodness-- a tutorial for newbie crochet beginners. A thousand thanks.

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Hi Abi!🙋🏻‍♀️ I'm so glad you found it helpful!🤗

[@abi2270]

@@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria It is the clearest tutorial I've seen. Question. When you've decreased it down to 7 stitches, is it possible instead to have 9 stitches for the handle. I find 7 stitches makes it too thin.. Also finding 1" buttons was hard. The closest I found was 1 1/8th buttons. So for the button hole, I'd need to chain 3 instead of 2...would that work for bigger buttons?

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

@@abi2270 If course! Just stop decreasing when you have 9 stitches across…. And yes…. I would chain 3 for larger buttons… 👍🏻 That is the wonderful thing about crocheting….. you can adjust patterns to your liking. ❤️👍🏻

[@kimberlynantelle2183]

My daughter Amy wanted me to make her some of these for Christmas I made these years ago...I have mine but they are like 25 years old...but glad you had this fresh reminder to me...her dogs knocks hers off the oven door so thanks

[@vickieeckenrod9519]

I like how you slowly show us. Thank you this is great.

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Thank you Vickie 🤗 I know when I first started to crochet… I always looked for tutorials where people went slower. Even now sometimes when I am learning new stitches or patterns I like when I can find tutorials that go slower. I find it very beneficial. 😃

You are wonderful!!! My mom used to make a towel topper exactly like this. I have been searching for this type of towel topper for a few years. My mom passed away 12 years ago so I couldn't ask her for help. I am so happy because of you!!!

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

[@remcat3572]

I like this method best, with the single crochets because it is tighter and gives a more substantial base for the towel to hang from. Looks nice too. Thanks for going through all the steps - it helps to see the weaving in of the ends, the buttonhole, and sewing on the button.

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Thank you so very much! yes, I like the heftier top too! I appreciate you watching!

[@jennifertomka9120]

I love this towel topper. I've done a few different ones but this is my favorite right now. I'm going to have to write down the pattern so it is a little quicker for me each time. I also chose to do a mattress stitch on the towel instead of poking holes. I think I did them about a quarter inch apart which makes the 43 stitches needed. Anyway, thanks so much!

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Hi Sandra! 🙋🏻‍♀️ Thank You! 😁

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

I’ve watched a lot of these tutorials and what is the main difference with your method is that your foundation row goes across the whole width of the towel. The others fold their towels and the start the foundation through the folds. I like your method better however, I was hoping to see what yours looked like when it is hanging. It appears that the sides fold in on themselves. Is this correct? I like the idea of the awl. This is a very good tutorial. You are very clear with your instructions, thank you. It’s always fun to learn something new.

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Hi Stefanie!🙋🏻‍♀️ Thank you so much for your lovely comment. 🤗 When I first made this tutorial I didn't know how to add photos etc. to my videos. Yes, the towel folds back into itself due to the decrease stitches. This is the way my momma taught me to make these so this is the way I have always made them. 👍🏻 She would always give them as gifts to everyone and anyone! She loved to crochet so much! ❤️Yes, it is always fun to learn something new. 🌼

[@jolenelarson469]

I just made a different towel topper, so of course I got a bunch of KZbin suggested videos, including yours. I like yours better, and you are right, it does seem more secure than the sewing method. I'm going to try this one next.

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Hi Jolene!🙋🏻‍♀️ Thank you so much! 🤗👍🏻 I think so too! I appreciate you letting me know that you are going to try it! 💞 I make all my towels this way and sometimes I cut them in half and sew the cut edge so I get 2 towels out of 1. I also sometimes use cotton yarn too. 👍🏻 Just a little side note: If you use cotton yarn, just do more single crochet rows in the beginning so the topper is a bit longer. 😜🤗 Have fun! ~ Happy Crocheting🧶

[@Kathyluvsgoats]

A few years ago I came across a nifty tool called the sharp crochet hook. I don’t have any affiliation with them I honestly don’t know if they are still in business. But if you can get one of these hooks. They make these towel toppers so much easier. Thank you for the tips and tricks!

[@sweatpead6884]

Does the Dollar tree hand towels work? Cause they have some nice hand towels.. so r u saying every 3rd to decrease when u r going down the row?

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

SweatPea D Yes, dollar tree towels work fine! I just don’t have a dollar tree in my town. And yes... on the decrease rows you would do a single crochet in first stitch, a single crochet in 2nd stitch, then a decrease ( single crochet 2 together) into 3rd & 4th stitch.

[@NJgrandma]

Very nice! Thanks! I like a few things about this. 1. I like that you did them with single crochet. So many others I’ve seen were done with double crochet. Yours looks nicer, IMO. 2. I like that you spaced your foundation stitches close together. 3. Thanks for telling us where you got the towels! One important point about the awl (I own one, too) that beginners should be aware of… they’re very sharp! Keep away from children!

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Awesome! Thank you! 🙏 I appreciate your input and advice about the awl!@ YES! They are sharp!

Absolutely fabulous tutorial!! I'm so glad I found you today. I need to make a lot of these up for gifts for family and friends. And I must say, I'm so very glad I didn't find you right before Christmas. I'd have been hard pressed...not getting any sleep...trying to make them up for Christmas gifts!! Lol. Such a beautifully finished towel when done. I watched lots of videos on how to do this and yours is the very best. I will admit...I'll be cutting my towels in half. I will be using some inexpensive ones...but also, some designer ones. I have 4 married kids, 11 grandkids (5 who are married) and then sisters and friends I plan to make them for. One granddaughter is a huge Pioneer Woman fan...as I am. Walmart has some lovely towels in her design. So I'll def be making some up with her designs for this one granddaughter! Cutting in half will stretch the budget. I am subscribing to your channel. Again...so happy I found you!! Oh...and I might add...in order to crochet these projects, I've typed out the instructions. I cannot crochet them in front of my PC. I'll be doing this while watching a movie or two with my husband. And I'm quite certain that after making a few...I'll no longer need written instructions!

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Hello Tanveer Ali 🙋🏻‍♀️ I am glad it helped! Thank you!🤗

[@barbaralienhard3490]

Thanks Victoria, that looks great. Doug says he has an awl so I'll look for that and try this way!! God bless you Victoria 🙏❤️🤗

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Perfect! 👍🏻 Yes, I received my awl from my hubbies toolbox too!😜 I went to Hobby Lobby and bought one that has a more ergonomic handle on it. My other one was thin and started hurting my hand after a bit. ( I make loads of towels) 😜 I found one in the leather working craft area and it's called a "scratch-awl" I only paid $2.99 for it. 👍🏻

I’m back for round 2. I couldn’t quite remember, but had this channel name in the notes inside the crochet kit. ❤

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

I appreciate you so very much for returning! 🌼 I have attempted to write pattern out on several occasions, but because each towel size is a bit different that I crochet sometimes I create more foundation stitches which throws off the count. 🤷‍♀️ Maybe "someday" I will get it put into a PDF 😜

[@sojelsingh2459]

Thank you for this video! It rest helped me last night! It was my first time doing a towel topper. It really helped! You do such an amazing job at explaining the process very nicely! ❤️😊

I have never been very good at crochet, no matter how hard I try. I had made a set of these in the past and they turned out ok but the process was grueling so I gave up. Yesterday and today I watched your video as I am braving up to try again. Your video is great. You are clear, and the pace is pretty good. Yes, I rewound a lot to rewatch the stitching, but I got through the whole thing and just finished a towel in a day. Thank you for posting these straightforward instructions. I will start the matching towel now. Look forward to trying other videos of yours once I am done this set. Best regards from your Ontario Canada neighbour 😉

[@AlaskaCraftyGalVictoria]

Hello Neighbor!🙋🏻‍♀️ So glad you found it helpful! That was my first tutorial and I have learned a lot since😜

[@jackieflesner9214]
