    Hi, Lindsay. Thank you for sharing your Grammy's technique. My Grandma Laura taught me, but I was not paying attention! This video is perfect! Your voice is soothing and your Grammy is precious! Thanks again. --Paula in Texas

    I helped my GM make these about 65 years ago. I’m going to teach my grandkids

    Thank You for this video!
    My mother in law used to make these hangers and I have many of them. But I need more!
    She taught me how, and I had forgotten. So I am very excited for your instructions!

    Thank you for making this video. My grandma used to make these hangers for me and I appreciate them so much more now that she has passed. I want to start making them in her memory.

    Thank you for the very clear, easy-to-follow video! I’m making 15 of these to be used in a holiday play set in 1977. I’ve made 3 so far. I’ve got it down to about an hour and 20 minutes per hanger. The hardest part is finding a pair of hangers that matches up well. Who knew there was so much variation in wire hangers! Thank you for sharing!

    Hi Lindsay, Thank you so much for making this video! My grandmother taught me how do make these the exact same way years ago and I still have and use many, many of these. Over the years though, I forgot how I made them and have been hoping I could find someone that remembered or knew of this old way. You did a great job! Thanks again....I will get started right away in making some for my friend's birthday coming up!

    This was great! My beloved MIL taught me, and with her passing, I forgot. Thank you.

    This is so perfect! Great job explaining! This is super special because my grandmother taught me when I was super young and forgot. Now I can think of her and create something special

    So happy to find this tutorial! I remember having a handful of hangers like this at my parent's house. They were coveted as the best hangers for the coat closet since things didn't slip off. I just found two wire hangers that will work and am going to try my hand at making one!

    What a nice way to spend relaxing time. Looks just like my great granny's hangers I have. YEP! Your Granny was a smart lady.Oh! And it's not just Kittys 😻who love "balls" of yarn & any kind of ball....my Doggy🐶 steals my balls of yarn all the time...what a knotted mess. 😱

    If I find any of these at auctions or garage sales, I scoop them up. Now I can try to do my own.

    @gaylem4333 Před 3 lety

    Thank you! My mother-in-law showed me how to make these years ago, but when I recently tried to make some, I couldn’t remember. Her hangers look similar, but she made three loops with one color before making three loops of the other color. I will try both ways.

    Thank you. This comes out as a nice slim hanger. Just the method I was looking for.

  • @marybeth6750

    Can i do this on a thicker plastic hanger?

  • @joycegroenke8017
    @joycegroenke8017 Před 3 lety +1

    Does it make a difference what kind of yarn you use? I love these hangers and they make great gifts.

    Do you think this works with plastic hangers?

    • @lindsayoneill3933
      @lindsayoneill3933  Před rokem

      I think it could but it’s more slippery for sure and might require more yarn to cover than the thin wire hangers :)

  • @rjlomas9337
    @rjlomas9337 Před 3 lety

    what weight is the yarn you use? What do you recommend? Bulky #5 or is worsted #4 ok?

    • @lindsayoneill3933
      @lindsayoneill3933  Před 3 lety

      I've used all weights. I would stick to a standard or thinner weight. :)

      Sorry you had a hard time following, are there any questions I can answer to help you succeed?

    Why 2 hangers?

    • @lindsayoneill3933
      @lindsayoneill3933  Před 4 lety +2

      2 side by side makes them wider and more stable to hold clothing :)

      Thank you for doing this! I made one with my Grandmom and was trying to remember how we did it!

  • @cynthialeffler5456
    @cynthialeffler5456 Před 3 lety

    Nice covers but my only complaint is that a very,very simple project was made to appear much more difficult than it really is. And cats do NOT necessarily steal/play with balls of yarn. I've had many cats throughout my life and never had an adult cat interested in yarn and I spin yarn so it is always around if they were interested in it. Kittens on the other hand are interested and will pounce on and chase everything!
    Make your next video as simple looking as the project actually is and good luck.

    • @derekplaisted1759
      @derekplaisted1759 Před 3 lety +4

      Cynthia- while I fancy the feline just as much as the next lad, I feel as though you may have way too much time on your hands. Maybe next time you can just scroll past innocent videos by good people?

    • @smheron1
      @smheron1 Před 3 lety +5

      Wow, Cynthia, thank you so much for your insight. I've watched this video over and over and just couldn't make heads or tails of what I was seeing. That is, until I read your comment. You've turned night into day. The darkness has been lifted by your words of wisdom. Clarity has been granted and never again shall we stray so far from your unwavering guidance. Cynthia, what have we been doing without your gentle, caring grasp to lead us ever so surely into the realm of enlightenment? Perhaps, had we turned our ears to your sage advice, we'd be better, stronger, smarter, and not knee-deep in this pandemic, amiright? Anyhoo Cynth, we should link up. It sounds like you have a lot to offer. You could make a hell of a lot of money on CZcams. You're a little rough around the edges, but with some training and time, you'd make a hell life coach, sweetheart.

      I've had many cats throughout my life and they've all been adult cats and they've all been obsessed with yarn and yarn balls.
      I tried checking your channel for arts and crafts projects but didn't see any content.
      Pro tip: Make sure that you're providing unimpeachably top shelf content before giving pointers to others.

    • @alteredcontext
      @alteredcontext Před 3 lety

      I don’t understand the purpose of your comment. This tutorial is very clearly geared towards beginners. As a cat lady who spins yarn, you’ve positioned yourself as an expert and therefor not the target audience of this video.
      Which begs the question of why are you even commenting here? The condescending tone feels like you have a sad little life and just want to make yourself feel important.

    • @kacydrouin1582
      @kacydrouin1582 Před 3 lety +1

      Omg. Cynthia! I need your veterinary knowledge- my kitten couldn't give less interest to yarn, but my adult cat is obsessed and will actually EAT yarn if left unattended. Until you posted that cats shouldn't be interested in yarn and kittens should I didn't know there might be something wrong with them? I don't see anywhere that you're actually a vet, but you must be if you're so positive that cats and kittens MUST only react in the manner you described. What can I do if my kitten doesn't like yarn? What is wrong with her???
