~✸ Hello friends :) The pattern design video is FINALLY here!! This video has been highly requested for months and I finally sat down and filmed it for you!! It's a bit lengthy, but I promise all of the content is worth watching! There are 4 sections: (1) basic stitches, (2) designing the pattern step-by-step, (3) documenting the pattern/pattern testing, (4) revising and releasing the pattern. This video is geared towards absolute beginners for pattern writing so I don't go into the more complex aspects -- maybe I'll do a part 2 if you guys are interested?! I hope you enjoy!! ❤️
If you'd like to send me mail: [TBD, setting up new PO Box ❤️]

    This is by far the best "design a pattern" guide I have seen yet. Everyone else I've seen says, "Come up with an idea, sketch it out, crochet and revise..." etc. The fact that you walked us through an example was HUGE. I felt like I actually understood for the first time. Thank you! Loving your content.

    This is a good tutorial if someone wants to design. I have several decades of crocheting behind me and I appreciate your language used in the pattern. It's written the same way as it always has. (Not everyone is doing this now) My only suggestions are R is for Row and Rnd is for round. I do wish as an influencer, you would have a disclaimer that if you are a beginner you should master the craft prior to writing/selling patterns or teaching. There has been an onslaught of "tutorials" (not on your channel) where stitches etc are being taught incorrectly. Well done on your part.

    I was just watching your moving vlog while designing a pattern for a frog. 🐸 (Love watching you while working. Could watch your videos all day long.) Once the video ended, this video came on. I did watch it before, but of course, who would mind rewatching. Especially while designing along. I am doing so many things the same way. 😂 I just grab a hook and start to crochet too. Well, and then I frog, crochet, frog, crochet, frog, scribble, and on and on it goes. 🤭 Sadly my costume maker brain wants to sew, sew, sew... 😩 Does anyone like to sew parts? I do... Somehow I feel like I might be alone in that. 😅 Can't wait to finish this design and eventually take the plunge to upload. Just came on to say that it's a lot of fun to design alongside. ❤ Get settled into your new house.

    Great ideas. My suggestion for body is do Dec to the 18sc, & do another row of 18sc. Then do the Dec to 12sc, & do a 2nd row of 12sc. That should give a better shape to the chest area of a bear. As for the ears, sew around the 8sc or sc across to close then sew onto head in a curved shape? Which would look better? Thank you for you ideas. Love you😘💖btw, did you get moved to Fresno yet?

    This video was super helpful thank you! One of the things that I think is the hardest part of pattern designing is knowing how to make different shapes. And what stitch patterns will make different shapes. So could you make a video teaching how to crochet basic shapes? I think that would be super helpful. ❤❤

Thnx, love your videos!

I have seen a couple patterns do the INC first, making me wonder if it makes a difference. It throws me off sometimes because most patterns seem to use SC lol. I hope that made sense 😅
