Love your crisp and clear voice. Very audible and pleasant to the ear. Like how you carefully show each each step by step. Thank you for this video

[Glare]

Thank you so much for making this video! This is one of the easiest tutorials I have found and the camera angels are so clear they show me the exact stitch. I also love the joining method you have used for the next round. Thankyou.

I love this! Thank you for sharing several new (to me) techniques to perfect my crochetting skills. I wondered how I could change colors after each round and found that I could easily pull through the new color when making the second, front-to-back loop of the fake double crochet stitch. I then inserted my hook through both loops per video instructions, old color and new, pulled through with the new color, chained one and continued. The result is beautiful! There is a slight seam on the back of the work, but, who cares? It's the front that matters.

Wonderful tutorial! Thank you for the pattern ❤

I had some tshirt/ribbon yarn in my stash and needed to use it up! Great size for pot holders too!

Anyone else get sore hands when working with this kind of yarn or just me 🙋‍♀️

[Kayabue]

How do I know if I should start directly with an increase in the new round or not? Some rounds you start with an increase an in some you just work 1dc in the next stitch
