ATTENTION! I have now made a FREE written version of this pattern! YAY! It is available on my Ravelry store and called "The Pumpkin Granny Square" The written version is best for experienced crocheters who understand written abbreviations, but of course you can always refer back to this video if you need help! I hope those of you who check it out enjoy! Please remember this is my first written and published pattern, so any positive feedback or criticism would be appreciated :)
Let me just say, I have threatened physical violence to all granny squares I have attempted to make. They all turned out trash. Watching your video, I FINALLY MADE ONE 🥳🥳🥳 and it looked good. Thank you so much😭🥹 you made my day
Wow I love to hear it!! I’m so happy you were able to understand my tutorial! I know sometimes crochet videos can be unnecessarily complicated, so I wanted to make sure I was making it as simple as possible so that anyone could understand it :) this was like one of my first videos too I was nervous 😅
Thank you so much for this video. I loved that you told us how many stiches.... 3 in this stich, 5 sc for the next 5 stichs. That was super helpful for me and a lot of people skip it when doing video. It's really easy to het lost on the count which out it. I'm dyslexic and miss stiches some times so be able to go back and have that reference is so helpful for me. That you so much. My square came out great
You're so welcome! I'm so happy I was able to make this tutorial understandable for you. I was worried it might be too long but personally I like to be walked through new patterns, especially when every row is different. Happy crafting!
Hello Alexa so happy to run across your video I am a new subbie. Thank you for all your hard work to bring this tutorial to us !! Fantastic job! Very clear !! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
This is one of the few videos where everything was so clear and paced well. There were moments where the video was pretty slow but I just watched it on 1.25 and it was perfect. As someone who is more of a visual learner, this was great. Thank you!!!
I love how you go slow this helps me a lot I learn a lot by watching other peoples videos and I think that you did a good job you’ll learn more on how to do videos by just keep doing what your doing ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for the kind words! I remember I was so scared to post this video as my first tutorial and now looking back on it all I can see is what I could have done better 😅 so I agree that it just takes time and effort to get better! I’m glad you enjoyed the video 🫶🏽
Love the tutorial! I rec telling people to put a stitch marker/bobby pin/paper clip/scrap piece of yarn in the single crochet that we make to enhance the pumpkin/circle, so that when people get around the the slip stitches, they can tell them. Me, sometimes my tension goes too tight and its hard to tell a single from the slipstiches, lol! I might go back and do it that way to make sure I know where the slip stiches start..and
That’s a really good idea, I don’t know why I didn’t think to do that! Because I totally agree sometimes I can’t tell which is which either, and it would’ve been so helpful and more clear to just use a stitch marker lol
Wow I'm so happy you were able to follow my tutorial!! I hope your square turned out amazing and I'll give my love to the kitties! I'll have to introduce all of them soon 😂❤
I see a few people would rather have a written version of this pattern. I understand that because this is a very slow beginner friendly pattern! If I were to create a pdf for Etsy maybe for a few dollars would anyone like to purchase? I’m trying to think of ways I could get a written pattern out to you guys that won’t be high cost on my end! Let me know if you have any other suggestions or if you like the Etsy idea! (Maybe ravelry? I think I’ve seen free patterns on there before?)
Hi I’m a new subscriber-this is super cute ! Thank you I’m also looking for a large candy corn throw pillow and can’t find one here on Pinterest ! Let me know if you make one . I look forward to more ideas from you
Does the first chain 3 count as one of the ten double crochets in the beginning? I’m stuck and I can’t count your stitches because your thumb is covering them
Hey I just wanted to let you know I think your new pdf pattern might have a mistake on it. It says round 2 should only be one DC in every stitch instead of 2 DC in every stitch. I wondered why some of my pumpkins were looking wonky 🤭🤣
Thank you so much for pointing that out! I put end with 20 stitches but totally left out to actually increase. Omg 😂 I’ll change that as soon as I can!!
💖🥰♎️👻 It's really cute. Love it! Hi Alexis, I'm from RI. Living in Florida( West coast) & missing a New England Autumn. Are u on the East or West coast?
