Tutorial Tuesday 15! Granny Bottom Bag! Part 1

[@ladysundragon]

Started from the dark and moved to the light. What a spiritually uplifting thought. ;)

[@dennisscholtz6412]

You are adorable with your beauty and personality, not excluding your talent. So happy that I ran into your tutorials. Thanks.

[@karanferrell6869]

I just found your channel and this is the second video I am watching. I would just like you to know that I spend the majority of my time alone. You make me feel like I'm invited into your home, sharing a cup of hot tea, and having you help me learn another wonderful project to make with you! Thank you for inviting me in! Looking forward to Tuesday's!

[@97lashai]

Hi Mrs. Marcelle: I can't wait for part # 2. I finished my 15 rows and waiting patiently. You are the greatest teacher. I never knew how to change colors until now. I would just tie one with other and have knots. Thanks for teaching me something new. Have a great weekend

[@adrynoe1]

Praise Him! thank you so much for all your tutorials, I really enjoy them. I did the swag bag and it is beautyfull, I am definitely doing this one too.. Blessings from Juarez, Chihuahua in Mexico. You really are one virtous woman.

[@deecai01]

I want to thank you for this purse. I have made one for myself in pink, black and white. My mother has asked me to make her camping club one in neutral. One for herself and my sister, and also three she can give as christmas gifts. Thanks again!!!!

[@Momof3ToBe]

I love your tutorials. They are really easy to follow and very inspiring! Thank you for doing these tutorials.

[@C00k13L0v3]

I'm totally in love with this bag... you're gonna have me up for weeks crocheting purses!! Lol I really want to make this for my mom

[@crochetbabe829]

Oh boy!!! Now i have to go shopping, this is awesome. I love doing the granny square. and this purse is very cute, i have to make this. I'll be back . . . .

[@dancinggirl75]

Marcelle, you are one of the best. I was working along with you on the Swag Bag. Then I got to thinking. What else does this sister have on youtube. I started searching the tube, and WOW, I came across all f the Tuesdays. Like I said on your swag site, I am a baby blanket crocheter. Never have I made a bag, since my mom taught me, back in 1943. Now I have to follow you on making this one for me. It's great. Love you, your vids, and the way you teach. God has really blessed you.

[@ibyl]

Onevirtuous woman you are absolutely great! I messed up the first time- new to granny squares, but I tried it again and I got my first four rows done. I have eleven more to go. Thanks for sharing this tutorial. :-)

[@nonafy70]

[@denisharamsey904]

[@cwatts7412]

[@abluemoon410]

THANK YOU so much for these videos! I have just been on Raverlry etc trying to find help trying to read that chart! I am sooo glad I found your channel. Your videos are wonderful, clear and straightforward and love the way you are just chatting with us. I started watching some of your other videos re: your pregnancy journey, the birth of that sweet baby girl , and can hardly wait to catch up and then see what else you have planned. Thank you so much (I'll send you a picture of my GBB when I'm done!) Take care and God bless...

[@1sweetbonbon]

Hi there. Feel like I would love to tell you that I am so impressed with the message you bear. Love it!! And I too liked the dark into the light. This bag is darling. I will be following you and this bag to completion. Keep up with the message and your craftiness. Love that too.

[@MsLovelyNaturally]

Never met anyone with my name spelled the same exact way! Your bag is beautiful. My mom showed me your website, she's a crocheter and knitter I only do crochet somewhat but I may be so inclined to try your pattern. Thanks for the video!

[@madelynortiz5806]

Beautiful. Would like to see another tutorial of this bag in blue maybe. Love it. God bless.

[@OrdinaryAmy]

This is absolutely beautiful bag.

[@marcysmith9483]

I made a bag, recently my own creation, I absolutely love this, gotta try it. sometimes you can go to a thrift store & find old bags with handles you like & cut them off. that's what I do.

[@jenthomas1448]

Oh wow great idea!! Thanks for sharing

[@dianelap67]

Thanks for the lesson and I don't like to make granny squares either I imagine you could make puff stitches or popcorn stitches and follow along, wonder what that would look like? I will make the granny squares because in the end it is very beautiful. Thanks again love all your tutorials you have a lot of patience and make a great teacher.

[@BowmanE71]

I am looking forward to making this..n I love the colors.

[@lilmocha117]

[@MykoolKrafts358]

i made some of these bags :-) EVERYONE loves them! i made the first in dark pink,light pink, and white. but the made others but then only used one yarn.

[@Txcrafty1908]

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to obtain written instructions for this bag and the granny bottom bag. Love them both and want to make for holiday gifts. Thanks for being an awesome instructor, you are truly blessed. You've become my personal instructor for crochet. God Bless

[@txsunshinecowgirl]

you are a hoot, i enjoyed watching this tutorial even though i not making this lol, i couldnt stop watching

[@MsAshleyNeicole]

Absolutely love your patterns. I have a question. Can you post a video on how to add the bamboo handles like in the finished bag in this video? I love that look.

[@dawndiamonds]

Heyyyy. Thank you for the shout out. You really dont want to get rid of her. lol Its gorgeous.

[@cierasweeting7818]

[@OVW]

[@ManiSimone]

I wish I could do this! loving the pattern already

[@manumanumanu975]

"very simple" is my preferite word! kiss,Manu(Italy)

[@paakeng]

Will sure have to make one of this ^^..b Thank you for the tutorial.

[@barbaraellsworth647]

i made the bag but i changed it just a bit when adding liner i added a little pocket to it so that u could use it for like little stuff that might easily get lost at bottom of bag like a cell phone for example

[@colynneful]

hi. your granny bottom bag tutorial is very helpful. i learned a lot. you mentioned that if anyone of your viewers would have requests, they can feel free. i would like to request for a tutorial on summer tops with those lacey stitches.i hope it's not asking too much. thank you . you are great! how can i follow your series (tutorial 15, 16, 17 etc.)

[@dawndiamonds]

Went to Michaels today. Teachers get 15% off when they show their job ID. I see Joann's has something similar for teacher's as well. It's great to get an additional 15% off sale prices.

[@MistyPitts]

Hi...I love your videos...I have a tip for everyone...If you have a problem with your hook squeaking rub a little baby powder on the hook...This stops the squeak and makes your work smell good...:o)

[@suviek9924]

But the thing is I just started doing crochet and i tried some granny squares as a beginner as i know basic stitches. i m looking forward to do this bag and i have bought yarn but i bought different brand of yarn i.e of Caron brand Simplysof,t is that ok to use? please suggest me. i would like to start this bag. waiting for reply... :) :) and thank you so much for sharing this video :)

[@OVW]

@97lashai Hey there your so welcome, Part 2 is coming soon about to up load it now.

[@lindarouget1934]

[@send2steph]

Wondering if you've ever tried this with plarn (plastic yarn - cut up plastic bags).

[@mmetoast]

Out of curiosity, I was wondering if the finishing part is the same if I make a 30 row bag? - love your video

[@eva2126]

Thanks can't wait to make it

[@carinatorres100]

hi!!! Really love ur tutorials : ) I have a question though I want to make this bag using red heart yarn would one skein be enough if I double up the yarn on it or should I buy two of each color? Thanks : )

[@OVW]

@rainzion1 Hi thanks for watching, yes dont leave home without you hooks :)

[@OVW]

@specialCraftsandmore ooo I like those colors! I'll be going back to Michael's today as well, I need to get the fun fur yarn its 2 for $6.

[@dancinggirl75]

I have a lot of scrap yarn left over from a lot of projects. Can scraps be used if I have enough, and also, must the yarn be doubled?

[@OVW]

@1975ccoleman Is that 5 colors? if so it should be fine, but im not sure how it would look,i guess it depends on the way you put the colors together.

[@OVW]

@1chosensista Thank you so much, you have seen video responses? from who, id love to see them?

[@phoenix4evarises]

Double up the yarn even if I am using on color?

[@Whirledpeas00Knits]

I just made a video of how I made this bag. I love your colors you used! 💗😊💗

[@YvetteNMariah559]

Hi Marcelle. I just had a question I can use super saver right? Do I have to use two colors at the same time..or can I just use one? Please help..thank you

[@OVW]

@Momof3ToBe Thank you so much! O and you are so welcome!

[@OVW]

hi no they will only damage if you wear them excessively I normal take a break from them for awhile before I wear them again.

[@npressions]

I made this bag and I love it. I did show it briefly in my last video, take a look if you get a chance, it's at the end of the video. Thanks for the awesome tutorials!

[@eternalsunshine816]

i cant wait to try this

[@dawnamendola8690]

Can the lily sugar and cream yarn be used?

[@OVW]

@crochetbabe829 Yes my dear get ta moving,I think you will really love it!

[@kriskrossRIP]

If I use the M hook how much bigger is the bag going to be? The I hook for me is just too small for two strands of yarn for me. Any suggestions?

[@nightmiztrez]

Is there a place you offer your creations for sale? I would love to buy some of the beautiful things you make. I would crochet along myself, but I have early onset arthritis in my hands. (I have a screw in my wrist that makes it hard) So, sometimes I can't sit and make the beautiful things.

[@rosiecastro1]

Hello there ihave one question ...can this pattern be made larger for people who like big purses??? if so large can i crochet??? plz thank you and God bless U always

[@maxinegiles9488]

Can I use only 2 colors alone to make that bag instead of 3 colours

[@OVW]

@GraceAlone71 Yes do try! Have fun!

[@hairandmakeupme]

Hi @onevirtouswpoman, how much do you sell your bags for?

[@99TNM]

would like to know how many plys is the yarn used in this tutorial

[@specialCraftsandmore]

where do you get ur handles?

[@dawndiamonds]

Marcelle, just a thought, having sold cosmetics. Sometimes when YOU wear something, it may make others REALLY notice and want to buy it. Have you taken her out for a walk?? lol

[@whyrobin]

Do you have a written pattern for this granny bag Thanks Robin

[@OVW]

@Txcrafty1908 Aww thank you so much! im glad I can help :)

[@meysanto56]

Hello XD what would be he difference if I use only one strand of yarn instead of 2 ? Thanks :)

[@Charo763]

Awesome I must give this a try! I loving your color choices. Charo763

[@OVW]

@rosiecastro1 Hi to make the bag bigger do more than 15 rows maybe 20 - 30 rows

[@broduddes1234]

How do u put the magnetic closure on

[@polaquitica]

We need this tutorial in spanish.. thank so much for show your creations..

[@eternalsunshine816]

will part 2 be up soon?

[@specialCraftsandmore]

sending you a vid of my bag going to make other colors ty for the vid :0)

[@anitamorris135]

hi, I enjoyed your video,I;m going to try this in #10 thread,I will double the yarn, I will let you know how many rows it takes, size C/2 2.72MM

[@OVW]

yes it makes the bag alil thicker

[@OVW]

@specialCraftsandmore hi I got the handle from Joann's fabrics for some weird reason Michael's don't carry handles :(

[@ROBERTSNEEDLEWORKS]

i used only one and when i put the main top rolls on it i used 2 strands but as i was looking at it i reliazed that the one strand was getting lose and i dont think its going to hold up for long so if i was u id use 2 strands

[@maureenmango1]

I told you that I love your nails in a other video but I want to know do they damage your real nails at all? And I love your video thank you!

[@hairandmakeupme]

@onevirtuoswoman how much do you sell this bag for?

[@ROBERTSNEEDLEWORKS]

if i was you id buy 2 of the same color of one big one its better to use 2 diff rolls so ur yarn dont get tangled up plus i made 2 of these one with 2 threads and one with only 1 tread im goin to use 2 threads to do the part to do the boarder at top to sew together and for the handles i think as long as those are 2 threads you should b fine

[@OVW]

hi yes to make it really sturdy, but you really dont have to it will be fine

[@broduddes1234]

Is the bag still for sale

[@dawndiamonds]

well Joanns. (i hope its the joanns you talk about). states that if you are a home schooler you can get the 15% off as well. Hope you already are. It says: Home School Educators require: an affidavit to home school, and letter from their district OR a membership ID card from an official Home School association (ex.: PEAH, HSLDA or state/local Home School association) Hope that helps. Michaels has some restrictions, but it doesnt hurt to ask them about home schoolers.

[@KittyChrissy212]

Hi OVW! I've made the GBB. I have a video being published on KZbin I hope you like my GBB has much as I like yours! Thank you so much for this tutorial :D

Hi scraps should be fine, it is not needed to double the yarn

[@brandoncoon8295]

[@OVW]
