I am a 72 year old white male in Texas. I just finished my first Gaithersburg Stole! It took quite awhile to get through as I had many mistakes to work through. It is not perfect, but it looks great. My next project is going to be the Wheat Cabled Scarf to go along with the stole. Thank you so much for doing your outstanding videos as I would never have gotten through this with just you book.
That’s wonderful Patrick! Many blessings to you!😊❤️
Good for you, Patrick! I started mine last winter, but stopped half way through as spring arrived due to working with wool. When I began again it was actually fun relearning the stitches under Bonney’s excellent direction.The greatest lessons I learned from this project were patience, diligence, and perseverance. If the stitch count was inaccurate I learned to rip back with a deep breath, and a smile to locate the error. Really! I am as grateful for mastering my emotion in the process of construction as I am with the finished product. Thank you Bonney, for your generosity in sharing your craft online with all of us, and Patrick, much happiness with project #2!
Congratulations
I’m amazed of your generosity in sharing and teaching your wonderful patterns. The beauty of your soul is reflected in your work. Thank you so much Bonnie! Lots of love from Turkey.🫶🏻💗
Thank you! I so enjoyed visiting your beautiful country back in 2022. Wishing you all the best!😊❤️
@@BonnieBayCrochet 💗🧿
I seem to be drawn into o everything Irish this is perfect for me. I have a hard time seeing some of the twist and turns but I will get it but just have to get the yarn now. Thank you again, Bonnie.
This is absolutely gorgeous. This will be my next crochet project. Thank you.
Thank you Francine!
Your designs always look intimidating to me but as I watch your outstanding tutorials, I realize I can do this!!! Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you Mary! Just one stitch at a time!😊
Found out about your channel while scrolling through ravelry looking for a knit shawl AGAIN that I could make for a specific person who happens to be Irish just couldn't find the right one for them and it's been two months but as soon as I saw your pattern I fell in love with it and then reading through the page found out it was crochet, which is my first love and I'm much faster at it than knitting... and not only have I found the perfect pattern 100% without that doubt I've found a new favorite designer. Thank you for sharing all your hard work and knowledge.
Thank you for your sweet comment! Welcome to my channel. Should you ever need help or looking for something specific, you can email me at bonniebay@me.com.
@@BonnieBayCrochet Thank you! 🧶I'm waiting for the book and then will be able to start, I'm pretty excited about it. Don't even mind working on it through the summer. Always love having visual to help along too, much appreciated.
@@opheliabells I think it is smart to work on these during the summer so that they are ready to go when the weather changes in the fall!
Bonnie, you are awesome. Thank you so much. I could listen to your voice all day long!
Awww....you are so sweet Rhonda!
The pattern looks so complicated but you made it easier with your tutorial. Another challenge accepted, another project waiting. Thanks for always challenging us 😊
Hi Bonnie, I consider myself to be a advanced beginner. But I’ll never be an advanced beginner if I don’t expand my knowledge of crochet and the more advanced stitches available. That’s why I love watching your videos. Even though some are really out of my wheelhouse I save them, rewatch them and build up my confidence to expand my knowledge. Thanks for being such a great teacher! I don’t have time to start this pattern yet (I’m in the process of moving) but I’d like to make it for a Christmas gift. Thanks again, Gloria
I think you will like this one Gloria! While the basketweave may look intimidating, it really is very doable for a confident beginner. Just take it one stitch at a time and like you said, keep building that knowledge base. Blessings...
Hi, Bonnie! : ) I Have had this book for about two years and I can't tell you how happy I am for you to be showing how to crochet this pattern. It is much easier seeing you working the pattern as oppose to me reading the pattern. I was getting stuck and honestly, it was me not really understand the pattern. I got it as soon as i saw you working the stitches row by row. SO, I thank you! You are a blessing to me. I appreciate everything you do for us. Thank you, again. God Bless You!
Divine timing! Just pulled out my totes of yarn last night and I was looking for a fall project. This is perfect 💕 Thank you Bonnie 🤗
My pleasure EM Rabbitt!❤️😊
Just ordered the book!!
@@e.m.rabbitt9993 Thank you! I'll get these in the mail to you today!
Was crocheting your Abigail Baby Blanket but listening to YT. This one came up and I just let it run.. All of a sudden I heard your instructions and KNEW what you were demonstrating just by hearing your instructions😃
I’m doing the Arrow Stitch right on on blanket❤️
This is the 3rd pattern that I've made of yours as gifts, and I've gotten compliments on each one. All 3 people really love the blanket, poncho and this stole. Thank you for helping me give the people I love such amazing and beautiful gifts.
I'm so happy that these are working for you Selina! I so appreciate the kind encouragement!
Bonnie you never cease to amaze all of us with your designs !!! This is so beautiful !! ❤️❤️
Thank you NS!
I am currently working on the Celtic Throw and am in love with your Celtic tutorials (I learn better visual) cannot wait to try this and all your celtic collection!
Thank you Tina! So glad you are enjoying these!😊❤️
I am new ish to crochet and I wouldn’t even attempt to understand a pattern so these tutorials are brilliant, can’t wait to have a go at this
Hi Bonnie
I made 3 stoles as gifts and it turned out beautiful. For this project the stitch count is important. Made some mistakes but never gave up.
I have crocheted quite a number of your designs and love them.
Thank you Bonnie for all that you have done. God blessxx
Thank you Susan! So happy that these have worked out for you!
Oh my God! it's absolutely beautiful! I've been searching something like this and finally I've found it! Thanks so much for sharing! Awesome!👏👏👏👏👏 Blessings!!! 💯💐🌈
This is one of the most beautiful patterns I've found on CZcams! Thank you so much for sharing! Btw, for anyone who doesn't have a steamer, you can use a blow dryer to get the wrinkles out of fringe.
What a great idea Jane! Thank you!😊❤️
Bonnie you are such a good teacher , I am in the UK and I only work in American terms now , I love your patterns and will be buying your book today thank you .
Thank you for your kind support Amanda!😊❤️
This is BEAUTIFUL. Can't wait to try this pattern. Thank you so much. You are a blessing. Your hard work is so appreciated.
Thank you Bonnie it turned out great at first try! I made it as a gift, can't wait to make another one for myself 🙂.
This is absolutely beautiful 😍 Ms Bonnie. You are simply amazing - The best !
Thank you!😊❤️
Just loved working this pattern with you so beautiful.. Thank you so much from Caro Michigan.
Looking forward to making this! I already have yarn to use. Now to fine more time. 😁 Love all your tutorials! Take care and God bless you!
Another lovely piece of work Bonnie. I am beginning to feel that I am ready to try some of your patterns. They all look so lovely. Thank you
I am trying this lovely stole. I tried to make it about 2years ago n I struggled but now I am giving it another go. Thank you Bonnie
My pleasure Ann!
Огромное спасибо 😊 вам за ваши мастер классы, уже связала по ним два изделия, сейчас в процессе вязания пончо, очень-очень нравится сам процесс, и конечно же результат великолепный. У вас на канале я нашла выход своим предпочтениям в вязании. Это увлекательный и захватывающий процесс и мне нравится это проходить с вами. Желаю дальнейших творческих процессов и Божиих благословений! Теплый привет из далекого Минска!
I am so glad that I came across this tutorial as I have the book. Also, I think that using a yarn with wool in it makes such a difference especially when the item has some weight to it and will hang a bit like a shawl or wrap. Wool helps keep the piece keep it's shape - that's my opinion. Simply Soft is a very thin Worsted #4 weight yarn and I have made shawls with it before but it's not my favorite. Making the shawl in a DK weight yarn is a great idea! I love your designs -- thank you for sharing your talents with the rest of us!
This is a wonderful project. I’m definitely going to make this! Thank you so much for sharing. 🧶
This is lovely. I bought the book some time ago as I was keen to learn how to cable using crochet. I don’t like knitting. I had several goes with no success, but the CZcams tutorial gave success. However, I still had lots of mistakes. Retaining the 212 stitches caused the greatest problem and I think the error tended to occur on row 2 & 3. Thereafter and following my errors, I kept a tight eye on the numbers on those rows. I used a Lion Brand Fishermen’s wool in oatmeal, but had to reduce the fringing numbers to 18 rather than 23, as I was running out of yarn. The end product is lovely and I am so proud of having finally achieved this. Thank you.🌺😀
What a beautiful stole omg 😱 I really hope I can make this so far watching this amazing tutorial I believe I can do it! You are an amazing teacher Ms. Bonnie wow 🤩 I’m so excited to try this!
Beautiful. Another BonnieBayCrocket project bookmarked. Thnak you!!!
What a fantastic tutorial and patern!!Thank you so much!!Love it!I watch you from Greece!💕💕
My pleasure! I am looking forward to visiting Greece this fall!
I've just finished it as a Christmas present for my mum. Thanks a lot for the tutorial!!!
I would love to see!
A gorgeous shawl! Absolutely gorgeous! Love it!
I love how you explained and how you focus your camera, very easy to see , I love it 🤗
Oh thank you Julia! With my aging eyes I need to have things much closer and kind of figure that it would help others as well.
❤️
I've been wanting to make something like this with a DK yarn. I'm so excited! Thank you for this stole! Can't wait to get started!
I just fell in love with this and I couldn't resist and I'm doing it right now 💖 it's so beautiful 😍
I am presently working on this with double stranded Hobby Lobby's 44th Street yarn and it is gorgeous! TYSVM for this lovely pattern and clear instruction. I have found it *helpful when doing the slip stitches for the LFR to go up .05 mm in hook size.* It helps a lot to not have to be concerned about the stitches being too tight.
Yes, this works well if your slip stitches tend to be tight. Blessings to you Joy!
This is so gorgeous!!! I love the textures!! Thank you for sharing I’m a big fan of all your videos
Love how you show all pattern and easy to follow..love it!!
Beautiful work, Bonnie! Your designs never cease to awe and inspire. Thank you so much for the walk-through!
This looks really unique and beautiful. Will try it very soon. Thanks for sharing
Brilliant as usual. So lucky to have found your channel. 💖
Oh my! I didn’t know you were on CZcams, you just popped up,as a suggested video. I remember you from Annie’s Crochet back in the 80’s! I always made your patterns as they were always beautiful and easy to read. I still have all my pattern books from back then from the first issue on ( all in those cute little binders they sold). So happy to have found you again! Can’t wait to make this!
That may have been someone else from the 80's Susan. You may be thinking of the late Annie Ough? She published several leaflets with Fisherman Crochet back in the late 70's, early 80's. These were a great inspiration to me.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful crochet stitch tutorial. ! 😊💗
I have no yarn for this project atm but I watched your tutorial all the way through anyway 😁 just so therapeutic. Thank You
Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻 It’s a perfect gift for my BFF.
So wunderschöne Muster, 🥰ich freue mich deinen Kanal gefunden zu haben.ich kann fast kein englisch,du hast so gut erklärt das ich es verstanden habe .Danke 🤗
Such a beautiful stole I will do this for myself this winter thank you
Beautiful! So excited to give this a try. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful talent with us.
I was so excited to find a copy of your book on Thriftbooks so was able to get a copy. I am still looking through the book and enjoy all the pretties.
Bonnie, your designs are truly works of art. I was just looking at this book on Amazon last week! I want to make one of your items that looks like a cape with a scarf attached. But, I am terrible at reading patterns. One day I will be able to do it but for now, your book is on my 'wishlist' :) We all are so very lucky that you share your designs with all of us xx
Thank you Lavender Rainbow! I so love doing this. It has been my passion for more than 50 years and I'm so thankful for CZcams to be able to share in this way.
Very good afternoon Bonnie!
A true blessing your channel popped into my list of suggestions :-)
Your Gaithersburg stole caught my eyes as I was looking to do some nice item for my Mum living in the mountains.
I’m not a pro but was always told where there’s a will there’s a go...
Fell in love with the pattern, identified a wool from Italy I loved for this challenge and started this following your great tutorial.
Your video and explanations are really top!
Can’t thank you enough for sharing your knowledge.
Started it 5 days back whenever I had time and now still have to do the fringes...
Wish I could post you the pic :-)
Wishing you a nice day!
God Bless!
That's so wonderful Michele! I would love to see a photo (and share if I have your permission). You can always send to me at bonniebay@me.com.
@@BonnieBayCrochet Good afternoon Bonnie! Just finalized the project (I needed some more yarn to finish the fringes and ... some 'free style bonus' I made 😁
@@MicheleDC That's wonderful! I hope you like this one!
I was looking for a pattern with a little more challenge than what I've been doing and this one does it for me. I love the texture and design. I will be ordering the book today, as well. I have a boatload of stash waiting for me!
Thanks for your kind support Metro Stitcher! If you are looking for something else for your stash, I do have a Mystery CAL (throw) starting October 4, and it will feature many more textures you may love!
Bonnie, seu trabalho é simplesmente lindo!!! Você explica muito bem todos os passos. Apesar de não entender seu idioma, a forma como você explica, deixa bem clara a compreensão. Muito grata por compartilhar tâo lindo trabalho😙
Hi Bonnie!!!
I found the answer to this question!!! It's part of Ravelry already. I didn't know you could buy the book and have it in my library! This is great!!!
Look forward to more Celtics patterns!
I didn't realize Ravelry had the authority to sell these patterns. They are owned by Penguin Random House publishers. I can't even sell them. Did you purchase them from a specific seller on this site? I would love to learn more. I also noticed that some of the information there is inaccurate. It lists this book as "out of print", but it surely isn't!
@BonnieBayCrochet
Hi Bonnie
I bought the book on Amazon, Kindle version.
I thought I figured it out, but I can't seem to get it into my knitt companion. Rarely isn't working right
@@creatorg123 I haven't been selling on Ravelry for several years now. I doubt that the publisher works are available in this format.
WOW! Now I'm going to have to tink out the project I was currently working on to do this one! LOL... This is gorgeous Bonnie, exactly what I was looking for. It looks like a piece from Scotland.
Received the crochet book in the mail. Start my stole tomorrow.
Thank you for your kind support Linda!😊
Yet another stunning project , thank you Bonnie x
Thanks so much for this pattern! I just finished making mine and it looks fantastic!❤😉
Truly stunning thanks for sharing Bonnie
Wow what a beautiful stole.
Восхищаюсь Вашими работами,умением вязать как правой,так и левой рукой,я счастлива,что нашла ваш канал ,вы меня многому научили,спасибо огромное! Всегда с уважением и радостью ваша подписчица из России Люсси
Спасибо, Люсси! Однако я не настолько одарен, как вы думаете. Я использую "перевернутое изображение" для видео для левшей, чтобы предоставить это нашим левым друзьям. В реальной жизни я ничего не могу поделать, кроме как держать пряжу левой рукой! Благословения вам ...
I just found this and am so excited. I purchased the pdf from Etsy and bought yarn today! I too bought Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek DK Yarn in Linen and was wondering if I needed to adjust the number of my chain stitches because of the lower yarn weight. Looks like I don’t!😁. Thank you!
If you bought this pattern from Etsy I am very interested in knowing where. This is a design found only in my book "Contemporary Celtic Crochet" and is not available by me in pdf format.
@@BonnieBayCrochet oh my! When I saw the video and the picture matched, I just assumed you had put the pattern on Etsy. But apparently not. I just checked and it’s a different store.
@@cends2008 yes, another thief with a higher store rating than mine. Go figure! I am reporting this but Etsy isn’t making it easy.
Loved your video and how you explained your lovely work
Thank you Arline!😊❤️
This is pretty 😍
Thank you for sharing your talents with use...🤗
My pleasure Millie!😊❤️
Merci beaucoup Bonnie , tous vos modèles sont magnifiques❤ du pur bonheur
Wowww, il est magnifique!💕 Je ne suis pas bilingue et c'est très difficile pour moi de suive un tutoriel en anglais. Par contre, le visuel est tellement clair qu'il est facile de vous suivre.👍 Merci beaucoup pour ce beau projet, au plaisir de découvrir d'autres merveille de votre part.😍 Bisous du Québec!😘
This is exactly what I was looking for to make ❤️❤️
Fabulous pattern. The Shadow Box looks like a bigger version of the Honeycomb Aran Stitch my mother knitted when was a child.
You know your stitches Aine!
I love using natural fibers myself! Thank you Ms. Bonnie for all you wonderful tutorials with thorough explanations! You are so helpful and so much appreciated! This looks a little complicated for me being new to crochet 🧶, but I will try anything, I like a challenge and with a teacher like yourself who wouldn’t be able to recreate these beautiful projects 😊😊 I’ll let you know if I was able to do this! 😂 fingers crossed 🤞
Wishing you all the best with this Cynthia!
@@BonnieBayCrochet thank you so much Ms. Bonnie. You are such an inspiration I appreciate you so much! 🥰😘
Magic Crochet just sent me the link for this. Did see it before but didn't save it. Can't wait to try it.
That stole is beautiful love the pattern..
جميل جدا شكرا لكي انا من سوريا كان عملي جميل ولكن عندما تابعت الفيديو الخاص بيكي اصبحت اتقن العمل اكثر فاكثر اتمنى ان احصل ع هذا الكتاب الجميل

Great podcast, thank you
Is beautiful, congratulations !
I watch this all the way through and I will be making this I am finishing up a warm blanket that I will have for this fall and maybe I will start this stole. Thank you for explaining it very well and I finally got the cable stitch after watching you quite a few times on your tutorials today it just seemed really really easy so I got it thank you
Just beautiful work! ❤️
God bless. Thank you
Hi Bonnie, this is beautiful 😍😍🤩
I love this and is next on my list.
U explained so perfectly 👌
Thank u so much for such a useful video🙏
🔱🇮🇳🔱
Another amazing work ! I've new yarns and was planning to make the last triangle shawl you posted. Now I’m having a hard time deciding which pattern to make !! Postpone any coming video until I make up my mind , please 😭.
Ha ha! I'll see what I can do Asma! The next major project (the Mystery CAL) doesn't start until Oct. 4, so maybe that will give you a little break? : )
I just wanted to share that a high percentage of people are allergic to wool. This is a mixed yarn, but people should know this. Nice thing about this project is that it’s a garment you wear over clothes. Most people in the world who have mainly wool clothing for warmth and for cooling (like Saudi Arabia) folks wear under garments of cotton or linen to protect against an allergic reaction from wool. The military uses wool fairly heavily because it protects against heat and cold. Anyway, keep this in mind when you decide on wool for a project. Happy crocheting guys!
You can use any worsted weight or even heavy DK weight yarn for this design.
@@BonnieBayCrochet I’m sorry, I know we can choose, I just wanted to share a fact about wool against skin with folks on the channel. I love your work, thanks!
@@bettablue2660 no problem! 😊
Sus trabajos son maravillosos. Muchas gracias
Wow super beau merci beaucoup pour tout votre bontée
Прекрасная работа.Большое спасибо,за восхитительное объясни
تسلم ايدك وعينك 👍👍👍👍👍🌹❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️🇪🇬🌹👍 أنا من مصر الحبيبه ام الدنيا 🌹
Just beautiful!
I'm going to make this for my best friend to wear at church. Often times, it's not cold enough to wear a wrap to church where she goes but when the AC comes on she gets chilly. She can leave this at their little church and always have it to put over her shoulders when she needs it.
❓I don't want to use fringe for this. Is there a different edging that would be appropriate for this piece that's not too frilly? I'm asking because I'm going to adapt the center parts of this to make a scarf for her husband. They like to dress in similar colors and such so I thought it would be fun to make them something that matches but he won't want fringe or frilly. I would like something on the ends but I want it to be appropriate for the celtic stitches.
Thanks Bonnie! I really have enjoyed learning from you. I've been just watching you make several pieces until I feel comfortable, now, with attempting these celtic stitches. I love them!!! ❤️
What a great idea Marian! As for an alternative to fringe, one of my favorite non-frill edgings is to work the post ribbing (fpdc, bpdc) across and work this for 3-4". Will work well for the masculine version as well.
Love it...I always like to learn new patterns which I can use also with othernprojects...thank you...can you please tell me the meesurments (length and wide) and the amount of yarn you used? I am from Germany...I looked up you book ...but shipping is to much.
The original yarn (as shown in the book) is 4 skeins Worsted (#4) weight yarn, Caron Simply Soft (315 yds/288m per 6 oz/170g skein) in color Sand. Finished dimensions: 58 3/4" x 21" excluding fringe.
Danke für die tolle Erklärung
Beautiful!
