    I have been crocheting on and off for 5 years now. I only found your tutorials today after searching for some ideas. If only I found you earlier. You are by far the very best I've ever seen. You are an absolute super star. Sending you much love and appreciation from 🇦🇺. Thank you ......

      I think she's awesome. She has a knack for explaining things simply and clearly and she does some stitches differently than others (like the alpine stitch) and her way is much better!

    I literally just ran across your CZcams by accident. It's funny that you say I must be a new crocheter. Truth be told, I have been yarning since I was 5 years old - we won't talk about how many years that is😊. But I wanted to reach out to say that you showed me things I didn't know! We -newbies and vets- can all learn new things and share with each other. I love going back to basics and creating what looks complicated when in fact it's a beginner stitch. I love crocheting. Probably because my grandmother taught me, and she's passed. When I crochet, I feel closer to her. Anyway, didn't mean to write a novel...lol ... I just wanted you to know that your sharing of your craft benefits us ALL! So glad I found you. I'm "HOOKED"!😊

    I can't tell you how grateful I am for this post. I've had a rough go at learning crochet thanks to ADHD, and I was getting so frustrated that I almost considered putting my craft bag away. Thankfully I came here and followed along to learn three new stitches that renewed my interest in crochet. You're a wonderful instructor and I will definitely be looking through your other posts for inspo. ❤️

  • @nene00760075
    @nene00760075 Před rokem +4

    I had been taught that the Alpine stitch is done with front post double-crochets. While I loved the look, I always struggled keeping the stitches even. Making it a treble-crochet solves that. I'm so happy to learn this.

    The Alpine stitch has been one of my favorites for a while now. I've made two large blankets and I always get amazing comments from people who see them. The downside is the amount of yarn used but I do think the look is worth it. Can't wait to try these other stitches too! Thank you!

    Thanks to CZcams, I have discovered so much more but I have to say, the way you describe each stitch is so easy to follow...
    In the afghan singlet that I'm doing now, I decided to do a single crochet to start and to finish each row, and it looks so much neater and squarer

    I love this tutorial and your voice is so nice and comforting and while i was panicking a little with all the illegal stitches (what i call stitches that don’t go into the top of another stich) i did figure it out eventually and while it did feel like i was breaking all the rules i had just learned the results were beautiful so hey time for new rules i guess. Im only at stitch 3 since im doing these one at a time and then taking a break cause i really want to understand each one so i can alter and use them confidently in the future and im learning so much and you are explaining it so well thank you for this tutorial it is fantastic

    Toni, I love your videos and I am so glad I happened upon your channel! I have been crocheting since I was 12 (retired now) and I’m very good; but Toni, You r the Queen of crochet-I SALUTE YOU, MY SISTER!
    A request please-when u are giving hook sizes, would you please give them in their US letter or number size as well! Whenever u give a hook size in mm, I have to Google the US size or rummage through my hooks stash and hunt for the relevant hook! For contemporary crocheters it’s probably second nature for them to convert so u may feel that giving both sizes is unnecessary but if u could, I would greatly appreciate it!
    Also, Toni, I want to thank you for contemporizing my crochet life and the life of another retiree to whom I introduced ur channel!! Ty!
