I am the designer, teacher, and blogger behind Cozy Nooks Designs. I love to design modern knit and crochet patterns that are beginner friendly and fun. I am a true creative at heart and always have one or more crochet designs and home renovation projects in the works. My goal is to inspire creativity and to enjoy the beauty with a smile on my face.
In your button tree skirt, you said row 7 was 5 DC. Row 6 is the slat flo each st. Don't understand going from 2 dcflo, 1 dcflo, 1 dcflo to 5 dcflo. Don't understand why jump from 2 dc to 5 DC.
I have never done tapestry crochet before even though I have crocheted and knit for 50(!) years. So I almost cried when my very bright orange yarn was SO visible being carried with the white yarn. But then I found YOUR post - and I am smiling again!
I watched the video that you sent me but i don't carry my colors.i was wondering if you can do another video on yarn under on the backside.i am doing intarsia single crochet graphgan.
I just warn people I'm not teaching them properly. 😂 My Grams had no clue how i successfully made anything. But it works and now my boys learned my weird habits
Honestly if it was me personally I would just frog and redo. I do this every time I find a better technique for something I’m doing, and as tedious and painstaking as it is, I end up liking the end result better
Followed everything exactly and my pillow ended up really long? I don’t know what happened I was so careful. It still looks good but it’s just really big.
OHMYGOSH THANK YOUUUU!! There’s a sweater that I really want to make but I’ve twisted that neckline chain so many times that the whole thing had to go into the Project Time-Out Box for awhile. My sweater can be set free! ;)
Ahh totally makes this pattern seem more manageable I didn’t wanna sign up for a whole blanket only after to decide the pattern isn’t easy to memorize. 12 row repeat seemed daunting but it’s way easier!
Start with a gauge swatch to see how many stitches fit in a 4" square. For example: if there are 17 stitches and 16 rows, your finished piece will be about 63 inches wide. Depending on how big your graph is, you can center it on that. ❤
That looks great ! I started working on a piece with cut and tie method, i think i would try this and tell if it works (moon and sun shapes) Thank you 🪻
Stitch Fiddle! I have a video that explains how to use it and track digitally - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XmOrkxpib3c.htmlsi=1Oz7eryhl9oZ-E-n
I'm so glad i found this tutorial video! God bless you for this, really😩😩😩❤🙌. Been struggling with understand how to us stitch fiddle to customize names for my client's project and this popped up just below😢. i'm so glad❤
For the swatch, if I have 4 colors for my final design. Will it change the size of the swatch if I make it with only one of the colors that I will use? Or should randomly include all of my colors in in the swatch?
Yes, if you plan to carry the yarn across anywhere, you should do the gauge swatch how you plan on doing the pattern. So if you plan on carrying one yarn on either side of a design, do the gauge swatch like that also. ❤️
@@CozyNooksDesigns I’m planning to do the intarsia technique on my color work project. Also, if I understand correctly, you’re suggesting me to recreate my design but in the format of a gauge swatch? Including all the colors. If so, how would you suggest that I do that?
@@r4ch37d4 if you are doing the intarsia crochet techniques (dropping the color when you switch and not picking it back up until the next row), then no, you don’t need to recreate the design for the gauge swatch. If you are planning on carrying a color and crocheting over it, that creates additional height per row, and I would include that in a gauge swatch. 💜
