It’s great to see you take onboard comments and then take the time to re-do your video tutorial. That’s not a small thing by any means. Many many channels would simply ignore viewers. Well done and it’s great to see your subscribers growing. ❤
Fabio thank you very much for doing this video. I was having trouble seeing how you holding your yarn. I was able to do all three stitches on this video. I am glad you listen to the crocheters out here. You are doing Great. You done a do over and it was so easy to see and do the stitches. It was super nice that you read all the comments. If everyone has not figured it out yet. You are a keeper. I love your videos. Your clothes was fine. I bet you look good in anything. I will be waiting on your next video and I will be practicing these three stitches until then. I am sending you lots of hugs and best wishes on future videos. Practice makes perfect.👍 👍🧶🧶🧶👊👊🌈😁🌈⭐️⭐️🌈
It's refreshing to see someone with humility and who is willing to learn and grow. Thank you for your content so far. It's been really helpful and I'm looking forward to seeing what's next!
Fabio- great that you listen to your subscribers and viewers. I love the pace you describe the stitches and patterns. I love your positive attitude. Love all the steps you took to improve viewing the tutorials. I love the red shirt. Red is a sign of passion and power. It is obvious your are passionate about sharing your experience and skills to bring joy to others who are learning - like me. I look forward to your next video. God Bless you. God Bless yoy.
Thank you Fabio. This was much clearer to see. Well done. Strangely I could work the stitches but couldn't see how you started. Now totally clear. See you next time
Thank you for redoing those stitches. I’m about to embark on my first sweater so your timing was meant to be. Don’t listen to the haters. Not everyone disliked the naked video 😉.
Good morning Fabio! WOW! Best tutorial ever and I watched hundreds. Extremely clear and appropriately slow for the viewers to follow along. Can't wait for your next video.
Fabio, thank you for re-doing the video. Your explanation of the stitch anatomy (1-2-3) while making the foundation HDC resolved the issue I’ve had with this stitch. Thank you!!! The regular HDC on the ends is a great idea that I did not think about, but it makes so much sense. 👍👍 Grazie, Bello. ♥️😍
I have always been nervous of trying this kind of foundation row. First time when you showed I said to myself 'Oh that's too complicated I ll do it simply'. But in this video you've shown it so well that I am not nervous anymore..its a beautiful way of doing things
Oh, and on the clothes, just be comfortable. Any stitcher knows that to work on these projects for any extended period of time, comfort in your body is key to being able to focus on the work. Thank you for the re-do of the stitch. Very clear and I am excited to make a sweater for my Husband and one for me. You say this is just for men, buuuuut, since there are no measurements and it appears you size as you go, I am going to play with this extended HDC to make other structure changes as well. I have played with doing this before as I really hate most designs for women, and love the ones for men, so I have often tired to re-work the design for my small shoulders and big but. I am hoping to learn from you a better way to size as I go. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for doing this series.
Really nice to see this extended half double crochet stitch using front loop only. Lovely alternative to the standard double crochet. Thank you from the Scottish Highlands 🦌
Fabio, thank you so much for responding to our plea's for help with the foundation row. Your tutorial was so clear I was able to complete my 1st HDC foundation row, brilliant. 😊
I love your videos, looking forward to more of them and how you create your lovely creations!! Also, be yourself, don't change you because people don't like what you are wearing or not!
Fabulous Fabio: experienced crocheter here and happy learner from RU-vid. Bravo! Not only are you teaching us something new - in a very ancient craft - but you are also selling your very engaging self, which is the real secret to success. From a retired teacher, you have something innate, cannot be taught: a lovely personality. Here’s to your success. I’ll be watching…..
Hari OM Bravo! As a seasoned crocheter, your last video was clear to me, but I did not the fuzziness and wondered how less-experienced workers would find it. You are to be commended for redoing... and taking on board the learning curve that is teaching! You will never please all the people all of the time, but as long as you know that you have done the best that you can (and continue improving) all will be well. YAM xx
This is a superb video, redoing the explanation & repositioning the camera was perfect. After all my years of crocheting finally something was explained to me in a simple manner. Thank you.
I already know how to do these stitches. I watched this video for 2 reasons 1. To help you with hours watched and to hopefully get RU-vid to suggest you to more people. 2. I really love to hear you talk. 😂😂
Merci Fabio pour avoir repris votre Tutoriel. De plus je suis contente que vous pouvez lire le français. Vous m'avez surprise avec la fin du vidéo, je vois que vous avez été touché au sujet de vôtre habillement. Mon commentaire était pas pour vous insulter, mais plutôt pour mentionner le changement que j'avais remarqué et apprécié. Bonne journée et bonne continuité 👍😊 À la prochaine vidéo !
😁I like you. Thank you for the video and I look forward to many others. I'm a garment crocheter, but I will make a blanket here and there. But my joy is clothing. And you are right, there are not enough good and elegant sweaters for men. But you sir have a good eye, skill and talent.
I really enjoy your channel! I would like to make two points. 1. By mistake I worked to the front of the stitch, and it came out really nice. Please try it and see if you like it. 2. Please continue with your tutorials , I really want to learn your method and to start working on a project! Thank you for all your effort, what you are presenting here it’s great!
Hello Fabio, I am a new subscriber thanks to Juan the yarn addict. I love the way you teach. I watch all videos to the end so you get credit for it. Thank you!😊
Oh wow! 😎 OK... I have this super fancy crochet book --- *Top-Down Crochet Sweaters* by Dora Ohrenstein --- and I'll admit, it was just a bit over my head. So after watching your first series of videos, I went back to this advanced crochet book. It's a lil more understandable now. Thank you so much, Fabio! 🤩
You make these stitches sound SO elegant. Thank you for the slow detailed and clear tutorial. I am 'covid' crocheter and have become fairly versed and experienced over the last 4 years, but I love to watch crochet techniques from other makers, such as yourself. We should all continue to learn from others and hone our crochet skills! You have a gift for detailed instruction and your sweaters are utterly gorgeous. I am only now feeling confident enough to start creating clothing and I look forward to your future videos and your patterns for your men's sweaters. I would love to make a sweater for my husband. One that is as gorgeous as your creations! Thank you again Fabio and please continue!
Fabio, you are an excellent teacher. I am looking forward to learning a lot of #crochetstitches, #crochettutorials and especially #crochetsweaters from you. 🙌🏻 ❤️ 🙌🏻 ❤️
@CrochetByFabio Yes, that helps you every time you #crochet anything. When a person clicks on it, it will direct them to something created by #crochetbyfabio But most importantly, when you start posting on your #youtube channel, a lot of #crochetsweaters and many other content...👍🏻
You're doing just fine. Anyone should be able to follow what you showed here. And you're right, the stitches look very nice. I've been crocheting since 1971 but I enjoy watching you & seeing what you have to offer in the crochet world.
Hi Fabio, i have watched 2 videos. I was sent over by Juan, the Yarn Addict. I am now a subscriber to your channel. Thank you for being patient in your tutorials.
Thank you for the updated video! I could definitely follow and see the progress this time 😊 You can tell it’s getting easier for you ❤ Looking forward for more content 😊 Happy Crocheting 🧶
I extend my sincere gratitude for sharing your remarkable talent. I eagerly anticipate commencing my crochet work on sweaters. Additionally, I am hopeful that you will also create designs specifically for women’s sweaters. Thank you once again for your contribution. Best regards, Sherry
Love that you listen to your viewers. For your first row have you tried just doing the first row of a long tail cast on stitch for knitting? You just make it with your crochet hook, flip it and crochet half double crochet stitches for your first row. It looks exactly the same but goes incredibly faster!!!! Give it a try. Can't wait till you share some of your gorgeous patterns on your channel. Your work is gorgeous.🧶💕☺️
Excellent! This is like having private tutor at home. So appreciate the attention to every detail. Also, your timing is perfect. I can actually follow along. Other tutorials are too fast. Thank you.
Although I'm not an expert on crochet channels, I find your channel extremely refreshing and simple. I don't know if these suggestions are helpful or not but when you're showing stitches maybe a large wooden crochet hook with a bulky yarn could show how the stitch should be done better. It may help viewers to see the the stitches better. The other thing I noticed is background colors versus yarn colors. I'm not sure for tutorials which colors help the yarn show more. You don't have to spend a lot of money on a "professional" channel because that would take away from your style. It's awesome to see a down-to-earth, raw tutorial. Research channels like crochet with tiffany, bag o day crochet and creative grandma. Watch how they show close-ups of stitch tutorials. Pay attention to yarn color and background color to see definition. Hopefully it will help. Don't ever change the way you do things because it's your uniqueness that brings newness to RU-vid.
I love that you control your yarn with your middle finger as I do, ive not seen anyone else do this and it makes me feel better, ive tried and tried to use my fore finger but I find this method ,for me, much more comfortable. Loving your channel and thank you for taking the time to listen to your viewers, cant wait for the next one....I'm subbed ❤
Thankyou Fabio. This is much better to see now. Btw let me introduce myself. I am a knitter a d crocheter. I found you from your first video and then Glenda from creative grandma shouted you out so I said for sure you have something to offer and I wasn't wrong. The men in my life don't like knitwear but I still find you interesting as I'm sure that what you are teaching I can easily use for female sweaters. Thank you once again .looking foward to your next video. Bye, for now from Malta
Wonderful video! the camera was much closer to the yarn this time. It was much easier to see what / how you were doing things. I, personally do not care if you are naked or wearing a winter parka. I am here to see your yarn skills. Welcome to the yarn community on RU-vid. See you in the next one.
Excellent! I have never seen a start like that. So, I had moved to learning to knit. But I think I'm going to make this sweater with you! I love how you take your time and explain. I'm going back to watch the one before this. 😊
Great work Fabio. Definately rare to find good quality crocheted sweaters. I have been working with the half double crochet but through back of stitch. You have taught me more, thank you so much. I have been using Holst Garn yarns they equal a 3ply (light fingering) and plump up after soaking to remove spinning oil. Gives a light weight warm garment. So glad I stumbled across your channel. ❤
Great job Fabio! I believe after watching this video, everyone should completely understand how to make all the stitches. I don’t think it could have been any better. I love how you refer to the tops of the stitches as hearts💓 instead of V’s. I really like the way you start the fdc. It eliminates that “strange tail” that always sticks out when making it the traditional way. Thanks for that tip! You’re very considerate to explain why you are wearing what you’re wearing (red looks good on you), but I’m sorry that you had to at all. Why people feel the need to judge others on their appearance/clothing is beyond me, especially when tuning in to learn a crochet pattern, etc. It’s not like you’re doing an Only Fans channel. Though you’d probably do well there too😂👍🏻 Wonderful to see you’ve doubled your subscribers since the last video - congratulations! Cheers from FL😺
Thank you so much for promising that you are going to wear a shirt when you make the videos. I was put off by your first two videos because I wasn't sure if you were looking for a companion or wanting to teach crocheters your skills. I would recommend redoing the first two videos with a shirt to give this channel a more serious tone. Question: You mentioned that you learned during COVID, Which book or tutorial did you follow to learn crochet the way you do it now? 👌
Great video. You are a good teacher. So funny you mentioned the gym. As you were crocheting I was thinking you sounded like a trainer. “And again…” 😊. 😅
The way you hold your yarn is just like I do , I’ve done my best to try the “normal way “ in blaming it on the fact all my fingers are double jointed so bend it a peculiar way and can’t do a straight pocky out finger 😆
Really Fabio, episode 2 was great! Your videos are perfect for the beginner. So happy to have found your channel. I have been crocheting for many years and never have I made anything for the men in my family because as you said all the patterns out there are not nice at all. I even decided to learn to knit so I could get a finer looking fabric but I am a crocheter at heart. I can't wait to give your method a try!
