In row 10, when catching in the 10th stitch, count the stitches from the slip stitch, not from the start of the petal.
Enjoying the pattern.
This is absolutely beautiful. Also, I don’t think anything you make could ever be “obnoxious or ridiculous,” and I can’t imagine anyone being mean to you about your technique. Thank you so much for bringing history to life. ❤️
Beautiful work, I admire your ability to interpret these antique patterns.
A couple of suggestions -- iron your ribbon before using it; wait to cut the ribbon until after you've threaded it through the loops, that way, you'll know you have enough to go all the way around.
I hope you'll keep your interest in doing these old patterns for a long time, they're a joy to watch coming to life.
Love it!!!! My grandma told me they wrote the pattern with mistakes on purpose, so people could tell who actually knew how to " Irish lace", and who had no idea. She always told me to see it, not just follow the pattern blindly. She also taught me how to recreate from made objects. Thank you so much.
the amish make a mistake in their work purposely because no one is perfect, i thought interesting
Same with traidtional bead work for first nations. They purposely make mistakes in theyre finished work or designs so people would know who made them. Like a different bead or line of beads that is out of place in the whole finished work.
I do beading as well but never came across this tidbit before. Interesting to know.
That’s me , My mom taught me when I was 9 using size 10 thread & a size 7 crochet hook, I always do a mistake in all my projects , I never knew that others have done it, very interesting.
The Romans used to make a mistake in their mosaics, because only ‘God made no mistakes’ was their belief 🙂
My father worked on sea for about 65 years he is 81 now and Titanic's history is something he is always been obsessed with, just a few days ago he showed me the 3D scale of the Titanic and now I can show him some crochet from that era heehee thanks so much, have a fantastic day❤❤❤❤
Oh wow! That’s wonderful!
Love vintage. Crochet .I enjoy all the patterns . Thanks a million for this opportunity to see the vintage product you show us to step back in time and use in this day and age thanks again for your time in doing this.
The finished bag is exquisite.
Its so cool that you can share with you grandfather. You two have such a great relationship.
Your channel fills such a niche in the crochet community! I feel a kinship with the women who have gone before us.. I imagine they crocheted to de-stress, just as we do, but the things they had to deal with (their children getting diseases, staying in a "women's place", spousal abuse, which was not talked about, etc.) were so much more than what our generation stresses over. It's fascinating to get a glimpse into a part of their lives. Thank you for all you are doing!
I agree! And thank you 🤗
This is a top-notch video from beginning to end!! There' s no way I could or would have picked up this pattern and made it work. You took something that looks complicated and made it doable for us. The final product is beyond gorgeous. Saying thank you seems inadequate but -- thank you.
Oh wow, thank you so much for that 🥰
My grandmother and her family were to be on the titanic but they had to postpone their voyage a week therefore was saved from this horrific experience.❤
I love your views of history through crochet. This is really unique. Even the comment section is inspiring to read.
Thank yiu so much , and yes the comments are wonderful! 🤗

BTW, I’m a historian in life and a forty+ yr. crocheter. I looked into the history of crochet and discovered that crochet, as far back that we know right now, was created by French nuns, who taught this art all around the world as the Catholic Church was setting up churches around the world. Crochet is different in different parts of the world, meaning some places like Ireland used very fine wool to create motifs to add together to make a garment. Of course when millions of Irish came to the US, we all marveled, and wanted to create the same. In Mexico they use a lot of colors to create pieces in their families. I’ve noticed on CZcams that many people in Turkey call crochet, crochet-knitting. The stitches are all the same, but as this art form was taught nun to woman, and then woman to daughter, most patterns were handed down by memory, and if they were written down they were lost over time. I love to creat things that I like now that I have tons of experience, but hooray to you for introducing folks to these old designs. You do a wonderful job, and the #10 thread if very easy to see on camera. I too take parts of a pattern that meant to creat a doily, and I turn it into an elegant baptism, baby blanket, or wedding shawl for a bride. This purse/opera bag would be a beautiful bridal party gift, along with one for the bride. An idea!
Irish crochet lace is my personal, ultimate, favourite style. I have yet to learn how to make it. ❤
@@krisindaboyce2747 I taught myself from available patterns and tutorials out there. Mostly, it's single crochet (US term) over another cord (size 10, 20, or 30 over a size 3) to make a padded/3D motif. Because tension varies from person to person, there's no real stitch count, and instead - use enough to cover the cord padding.
If you look at some of the historical fabrics, there are some pieces found in Egyptian tombs that looks a lot like crochet.
@@maryb8150go check out this page: little johns yarn and the article called the Interesting history of crochet....
@@maryb8150Yes you are correct. Crochet dates back to 1750 B.C. Which is over 3.75 thousand years ago. There were crochet items found in tombs there and in many other parts of the world around that same time period. I believe pieces of crochet have been found in tombs dating then as well. For commercial purposes I believe fishermen were basically doing crochet & knit stitches for their fishing nets dating back thousands of years as well. Women were probably making bags for gathering foods & kindling all over the world. Credit should be given where it is due and in this case Egypt and the year 1750 B.C in many places around the world. @bettablue2660 I am sure nuns did teach crochet but this would have been thousands of years after people had already been crocheting. Crochet was and still is a very important skill. People had to make whatever they needed and it was invaluable to learn. Certainly not too many modern conveniences back then.
My great, great, grandad Charlie Judd survived the Titanic. My family has gone to the museum in Ireland and given them all the info we had, including letters he sent home after being saved (they were terrifying). He was a stoker and was one of two out of his room/floor who got out alive. His cousin Jack Hurst, another relation of mine, went down with the ship. I cant wait to get into this video. Ive never thought of re recreating something from the Titanic but I might actually make this bag or something with the pattern.
It turns out so BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you for sharing your family’s history with the Titanic!❤️
That is remarkable!! thank you for sharing your family story with us
WOW!!! What incredible tie to the worst maritime disaster ever. I'm glad your grandda survived, and sorry your cousin didn't.
That's truly fascinating!
What an amazing story. I live in Halifax Nova Scotia, many of the people lost were buried here. There’s a huge cemetery in the city. We have a beautiful city and I’m sure you would enjoy your time here if you were to visit.
No.....don't feel judged. You do a great job and crochet is so flexible there are a ton of ways to accomplish anything at all. This bag is so gorgeous. Thanks for another great video. Be proud. You're awesome :)
Oh thank you!
Thank you for the clip about the Titanic, and talking about the community that crocheters are a part of.
DH&I went on a cruise in April 2012. Crocheting on deck brought a bunch of us together. Really cool! I had brought my “Between Meals Centerpiece” (pattern copyrighted in 1917, done in A.L’s “Ocean”, and Bridal Blue)
My maternal grandparents married in June 1912. Thinking about that fact makes me wish I had asked them about the big news of the day, the Titanic, WWI, running a dairy farm with no electricity until the mid 1940’s, etc. When Grampa was a young boy, he liked to hang out on the porch of the local candy store, listening to the old guys talk about fighting in the (American) Civil War.
The history lesson at the beginning was beautiful and thoughtful. Thank you for the the time and effort you put to figuring out these vintage patterns!
(Also, at 1:05:07, love the sass!)
Thank you so much 🥰
The way you so effortlessly wrap the working yarn around your left hand is just hypnotizing to me.
Thank you 😁
You are practically a stranger to me, but when I see you have a video up it is like seeing a friend that I can spend some quality time with. And than there is also a very interesting story to it, too. Love it already (3 min in)
Eddit: 1. Yes there is no wrong if it looks right! 2. Yes, the silk ribbon is so pretty and I think it is not to big ad all. I love silk and the color fits very well with the white. 3. Doing a bed spred is a very nice idear 4. I will make it, for sure. Maybe I will turn it into a swetter. Like 3 squares diagonal or two compared with plain sqares. Well I will figure it out.
Thank ypu so much
Aww, thank you so much for that 🥰
Hiya! This has got to be the prettiest vintage project yet!. You are super at this rich niche you have created! ❤
Such a gorgeous bag. I love how you do the vintage crochet with a history lesson your channel is very unique I love it.
I'm in the process of making this beautiful piece, Thank you for sharing this with the world.🥰
This is very much like a virus blanket. These are the most gorgeous squares I’ve seen. I’m making this as a bedspread. Thank you so much Corinna ❤
I’ve been obsessed with the history of this ship and the people that were apart of it. And obsessed with crochet. You put two together! I’m so excited!
so awesome to hear! get ready for a lot of Irish Crochet :)
the vast majority of passengers were Irish and I have several books from Ireland ( crochet books)
and that's what they were making on this voyage for sure
they were making things they can sell in the states , or gift or use in their new homes and new life
we are going to cover it all :)
@@justvintagecrochet my ancestors were from Ireland and Scotland and I’ve struggled looking for Irish patterns. So this is great news! Thankyou!
This bag is so beautiful and delicate looking. It looks like something the ladies would use on the Titanic. When I saw the title for the video I became very excited. I was born on April 15, many years after the sinking of the Titanic of course. I grew up watching the movie about the Titanic with Barbara Stanwyck and Clifton Webb. Once I was old enough to realize the significance of my birth date I have had a deep inter
est in anything Titanic. I am looking forward to seeing more of the types of items that would possible have used on the Titanic.
Regarding the “bobbles” and people’s comments-no one could write a negative comment about the bobbles or anything pertaining to this or any other pattern you’ve shared with us! Just sayin’.
This turned out absolutely beautiful!!
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for that 🥰
I think it’s so interesting to watch you work out a problem when the pattern doesn’t make sense, or you can see a more elegant way of handling a tricky area. I’m learning so much from watching your videos, and seeing where you’ve gone back to redo a portion is at least as instructive as if you’d done it exactly as you wanted to the first time.
Please ignore the people who might criticize something as innocuous as attaching baubles-you’re a treasure, and you’re very much appreciated!
Thank you so much for that ❤️
Corina this bag looks even better than I first imagined it to be. It's so so beautiful ❤❤ I can see a homemade fabric liner. Hand sewn into this bag, to finish it off. A piece to be treasured❤.
What a lovely intro to that era..and your voice is so amazing ❤ could make a tote bag in a 3 weight cotton/poly..my Grandmother from Mexico taught me how to make twisted cording, love that memory and how it looks, and it ends in a tassel...STUNNING 🎉❤
Ohh! Sounds lovely 😊, and thank you so much 🥰
love learning about history, and the Titanic is a very interesting history for me, so thank you for sharing this
Just made this, and just want to say thank you for making these videos so ppl like me who struggle reading patterns but loves to crochet can make so beautiful old things ❤️
This is a lovely series you started. Are you a teacher? It was a beautifully written introduction. What a beautiful bag! I especially love the little buds or baubles. They are so novel!
Thank you so much! , I'm not a teacher, just a newbie youtuber and a girl with a big passion for crocheting and making sure as many people as possible learn how to do it :) and hopefully learn how to read vintage and antique patterns too so we can all keep them alive for generations to come
thank you so much for your kind words! :)
I agree.
Love it! Can’t wait to make one with interchangeable satin lining: pink, baby blue, sapphire…
How beautiful - amazing work. I love the intro. It made the video in my opinion, setting the scene of the Titanic story. You could narrate anything your voice is so clear and soothing. Thank you for sharing x
Oh, thank yiu so much! 🥰
Yes Corrina does have a lovely soothing voice...
What amazingly beautiful piece of crochet work. I love it.
I must say WOW, I absolutely love this. So glad I ran into your channel 💖🌸
Your rose is easier than what my grandmother showed me.❤
So beautiful ! ❤ won’t it be lovely bride bag ? Love it .
This has to be my favorite video to date that you have done ❤❤. I absolutely loved how you brought the history to life. Bringing the past and present together with such elegance. I hope you continue for many more years 🙏💜
Thank you so much for that 🥰
I can never forget my grandad's birthday, April 14th 1912 ❤
The bag is beautiful. I’m reminded of the phrase “ there is more than one way to skin a cat” lol. A bedspread would be amazingly beautiful.
Love the history. Beautiful work. You're voice is amazing to listen to.Thank you for sharing your talents with us. Happy crotcheting ❤😊
thank you so much :)
The opera bag didn't have a liner because a woman used it to carry her glasses to see the opera , gloves and the opera note(paper from theater telling of actors and the operetta)
Thanks! Great info ❤️
Absolutely stunning! I'm going to make one for each granddaughter.
Corinna What a beautiful introduction to this video….made me cry! I wish we were neighbors…..you have such a tremendous talent…I really enjoy how you simplified this pattern….I would love to purchase this pattern if it was yours….with modern terms. I have to laugh bc I have problems reading modern pattern….😢 ❤
Thank you son much Susan 🥰
Just exquisite, Corinna! Amazing work. And that was a deeply moving introduction.
Thank you so much 🥰
Off topic- very off topic…you must be a Virgo. ♍️ you’re such a perfectionist. I love how you show us everything so clearly. 😊
How did I miss this video! This is great. I am so glad you bring so many different things. History , old , new, and the forgotten. Thank you so much. They call it a spoke because it looks like the spoke of a bicycle wheel. Bicycles were popular back then.😉
I feel so bad that you have to worry about haters 😢. You are GREAT! THX for the wonderful video.
Love watching you crochet these vintage patterns.
Those garments and accessories in your history are stunning!
This is the most beautiful bag i have ever seen. I'm currently crocheting a similar one called the
Shamrock and Rose Bag.
I love working with thread! The price is and was affordable when I started crocheting. To me all these patterns have always been a delightful surprise when completed. Yes they are delightful with our modern yarns. Thank you for all your hard work resurrecting this beautiful art.❤
That is absolutely gorgeous. Really enjoyed watching this while I was doing my own crochet.
Love this Titanic series, already!
I don't really do the patterns (except for the vintage 60/70' dress pattern which I bought). I just look at what you do or listen to your voice while I do whatever. I enjoy your energy and your gentleness. Thank you!
Just finishing up my first square, and I am LOVING it! Thank you for this pattern and tutorial. ❤❤❤
Just what my grandmother would have loved. So very beautiful. Have to make it. Thank you very much for sharing. 💖💖💖
I love this! And I love how you make everything so easy to understand! Thanks! 💓
I'm always excited to see a new episode. I did your hat and loved it. I inherited a cool little tube that contains tiny hooks. So seeing someone use tiny hooks. One of the hooks looks like only a thread the size of a human hair could be used.
Absolutely gorgeous Corinna!!! Tysm for all you do! If anyone complains ask them to show you theirs lol. You have done an amazing job! I wish I could crochet with thread. It makes my fingers go numb and hurts the rest of my hands. I appreciate you and enjoy watching you make these incredibly difficult patterns from a very long time ago. ❤🙏💯🙏❤
Thank you so much for that 🥰
Iam so happy I found your channel it's been a pleasure to see what you find and I live vintage and Victoria style anything and I live crochet so your channelnis perfect please don't stop God bless you ❤
This is beautiful🥰 I’m gonna make a purse out of these squares💕
An Opera bag is used for going to the opera or to a ball. As in Europe, especially now still in Vienna (where I‘m from) we tend to dress up for opera and for balls. If you dance a lot at a ball you need a little light bag, in order to have your stuff with you. The big bags for the change of shoes is normally stored at the wardrobe.
Very nicely done!! Thanks!
My new favourite Channel. Thank you, beautiful young lady. 🥳
Thank you soooo much for showing us how to do this!!! I absolutely love your channel…I am home and not well at the moment, thyroid issues as well 🤦♀️ I started crocheting again to keep busy and have found a new love for this craft because of you! Almost finished my handbag and love it! ❤
Thank you so much, I really hope you get to feeling better soon :) I feel ya on that one for sure
How pretty! I love natural fiber, especially cotton and silk! Beautiful!
This would be beautiful for a bride to carry on her special day. Lovely!
The 9-year-old little girl across the street has been helping me to go threw everything to find all my books and yarn. What a wonder that little one is! Only one problem, we have 4 huge barns, a 2 and 1/2 car garage, and 2 shipping containers we use for storage. This could take us all summer!😒😒 I'm just glad she is here moving all the storage bins, and pulling the wagon to me so I can go through all of them. I
don't know what I would do without my sweet little Emma. She asks for nothing but my help to learn how to crochet and embroider. What a treasure she is! I will let you know if we find more of the books
I would love to say that your comment brought back so many precious memories of my Great Grandmother. I thought of her, all through this video, and when I scrolled down the comments to see all of other's information about the History and experiences, Ibhadvto stop here and tell you that your young helper, will always remember you teaching her. I am one of 5 siblings, and the only one who was interested in my 'Grandmom's' crocheting, when ever she could sit down in her stuffed golden brown leather Rocker. I would sit next to her, or at her feet, absorbing everything she taught me. I now crochet and can knit, as well as see because of her.
Just know that hopefully like me, when she is 64, she will think of these days with you, and be filled with loving memories of how she learned to crochet, and the wonderful woman who taught her.
GOD Bless 💜
I learned so much from this video! I used Aunt Lydia’s #3 (D, 3.25 mm). I’ll keep going and make a small throw.
If the bobbles are on, I say you're good. Your channel, your rules. 😁😁😁
I just love your channel.❤❤ Watched almost all your videos during the weekend.
I have been looking for a bag like this..and then this was posted❤
I have also a dog... Makes me smile every time you find a hair.. 🐕
Aww, thank you 🥰
This is so beautiful!!! Thank you so much for breathing new life into these vintage patterns and preserving them for us!
And please don't apologise for making mistakes or improvising - you're doing great ☺️
Yes it IS so beautiful!!!
I don't know if I will ever make this, but I know that I definitely want to!!!
How lovely!!! Thank you so much!!!
♥️🍃🤗🍃♥️
This is beautiful...thank you for sharing!
I love your channel...new subscriber here..👍
I have thoroughly enjoyed this tutorial and your historical intro you have an amazing voice which adds to the magic you create. Thank you for your channels of creation.
This is beautiful! I love your show. ❤ This is one of many that I will be making in the future.
This was so gorgeous I watched twice. Great new series. I love your channel and am so glad I found it.
thank you so much!
@@justvintagecrochet I will continue to watch until you decide to stop posting. And I'm sure I can say that for quite a few people. Even though I have only been crocheting for a few years I was burnt out on seeing the same thing over and over. You have brought a fresh "new/old" perspective to crochet. With the makes you put on your channels, I find it so interesting and can't wait to try. You have no reason to thank me and I have every reason to thank you. I appreciate the time you give to us every week and the knowledge you share. So again I thank you.
Every video of yours I watch mesmerized! Your voice is very lovely and I love the bag 😊
Thank you so much!
My grandma from spain used to do a rose like this in a granny square and do cushion cover with 9 granny square roses
I am always excited to see your videos! I love this! Keep ‘em coming, your perspective is very unique! 🤗
Gorgeous. Great job. Yes, lets do some more Titanic series pieces
So beautiful!! I look forward to your vintage videos so much! Thank you for all your work for this channel. You are inspiring and seem like such a lovely person! 💕
Thank you so much for that! 🤗
It’s a love you can share despite language differences.
That bag came out beautifully! It would be wonderful for weddings. Great job Corrine.
Thank you! 😊
I'm so sorry I called you Corrine and not Corinna! I am so sorry. You are such a sweet individual. I love your Just Vintage channel but I should check out your other channel as well. I really enjoy your sense of humor too, right up my alley lol.
Thank you sharing, very interesting story. My mum got a nice hang bag by crochet and emborary used on her wedding day. Now I really love hand made on crochet designing and create new patterns. This bag very nice, and I will do something like this. Thank you telling the story and i really enjoyed it while doing my work.
Thank you so very much for your patience in analyzing and sharing this beautiful pattern!!
it is very very beautiful. I love this old fashioned style and what you explain about crochet through history and history through crochet. Thanks for all that. I am French and watching you from France. Kisses
Stunning!
Pure decadence! Absolutely gorgeous ❤
U r so relaxing and mellow soft spoken and I honestly learn the name Picot from u!
oh thank you so much :)
I can't thank you enough for this pattern, what a beautiful bag, I'm right now joining my squares and cannnot express my gratitude towards you. I started crocheting 8 months ago and who would've guessed that I'd be making this bag:)
You explained it so well!
Ps. If anyone is struggling to find the fitting color for the romanian cord, you can just take your regular thread yarn and double it
No one should be critical, crochet works whatever. I agree I had the same vision, I was cracking up. 😅 It seemed like the top would never end didn't it. But It IS GORGEOUS! I'd love to make it but no way. ❤ you are fabulous thanks.🎉
This is so beautiful. Wow!
Gorgeous!
That intro was beautifully done ❤
Just lovely!
I love this!❤️
So beautiful, thank you
I'd love to do the dress that Rose wore when she net Jack for the first time. Granted, it had a lot of beading on it. I also love the hand bags they had back then. I love vintage from the 1800s to 1999.
Fantastic! Thank you!
This is so pretty!
Beautiful!!
This is so fantastic, thank you so much!
I love this so much 🤩💖
This is such a beautiful pattern i'm a very basic crocheter but love whatni do. You are such a good and clear teacher you make this seem simple will try when i feel adventurous.
