I think the reason I enjoy the mystery pattern videos is because I have learned so much from them. I was never taught to read a pattern, and these videos have improved my ability to do so by leaps and bounds. Also, learning to make (and feeling confident about) “executive decisions” to improve on the stability of a pattern. The fact that you show your trial and error thought process is incredibly helpful. Thank you so much for all the hard work you have put into these videos…watching them has improved my crochet skills enormously!

I agree! I recently followed my first pattern ever, and this channel gave me the confidence to know i could read the pattern. I've learned so much from these videos.

What I have learned sofar: 1. there is a different about pulling the string over or under 2. stuck single 3. backpump only 4. just try and figured it out! 😁 And I am an advanced chrocheter, so you never stop learning.

@@doninis1354I am a stacked single convert. For the first time ever, I am crocheting a sweater for an adult. I think Corinna’s channel has given me the confidence to do so as well as TLYarn. I’m so grateful for creators willing to share their talents and having the courage to put themselves out on the internet.

I'm from the hippie generation and 60's. It is a scarf hat or kerchief band that is supposed to be like that because crochet was a huge alternative to use instead of cloth and you just weren't "cool" if you didn't have some things that were crocheted. It marked you for the hippie style at that time. I had all styles in many fabrics. You had to be from that generation to stylize it in your wardrobe super willingly. We wore them everywhere because it was the fashion. Yeah, the 60's were a very wordy time, especially coming on the tail of the Beatnik's coffee house poetry era. Yup. Wordy... lol. You do honor to women and men of that time. Thank you.

Baxk in the 60's and early 70's, many girls had big hair, back-combed into beehive styles, so that would have been just the right size! Well done!

That's interesting. It makes a lot if sense in that context, and by that logic, modifying it for modern hairstyles is only natural. We revive retro fashions with a modern twist every new generation

Middle 50's had the beehives too. I was born in 1957 and that's the style my mom wore for 30 yrs❤

Once these are washed a couple times they lay a bit less stiff, however making one with a finer yarn is usually best. Back in the sixties, we wore these things everywhere. The brighter and more colorful they were the better we liked them.

Wow! I’d love to have seen that...my grandmother made our clothes when we were little-we had hats and mittens, leggings, dresses, jumpers and even double-knitted “carriage” suits for riding in the pram! I think she was tired of knitting and crocheting by the time we were in school...Thanks for reminding me-I wish I could sit and crochet with her now that I have finally learned. She tried to teach me over the years, but I never got the hang of it until I had to slow my life down due to cancer and chemo. I made hats I donated to the cancer centre “hat box” (not the first one I made-it’s pretty bad, and I wear it😜). All best regards to you and your mum!

Deviations from original patterns are how new designs and ideas were made. You honor the spirit of these patterns by doing them at all! Do what you need to make them work for you. Keep up the good work and if people have a problem they can watch something else or do it themselves instead of giving you grief.

Couldn't have phrased it better, myself. Whether it's by the book or going rogue, we all should do what makes us happy in the end, and not waste energy trying to make everyone follow suit the exact same way. If we did that, there were be very little variety in life.

I think it's fine that you make occasional changes to the pattern. The pattern still emerges and you're experenced enough with crochet to know what is going to happen. I like watching the channel. Keep doing what you do. It's fun to watch.

Please, please do not stop your tutorials!!!!!!! I always take the time out of my busy life to just sit and do them with you! I love learning how to read the old patterns and see the product that is so elegant and timeless. I love your mystery patterns as well but it would be terrible to lose your tutorials.

I love how you teach how to read patterns, how to crochet, how to work through the patterns, and above all, smile at the end even if it’s not what you think it should look like. It’s all a success!! You are a super creative and cool person.

I think it's so interesting that every generation of women finds a way to use the same stitches to express themselves and make items that are beautiful and useful. Even though I don't crochet, I enjoy your vintage patterns! In the 60's, I made most of my own dresses and skirts, and always made a triangular scarf from the same fabric go with them. Always tie it with the strings under your hair in the back!

You are so entertaining....I could watch you crochet all day, even if there are a lot of sc's!!!!😊❤❤❤

It's a head scarf! A hippy head scarf! I enjoyed watching and listening to you.❤️

That is exactly the way they looked in the 60's. We all had VERY puffy, BIG hair back then! LOL! Did Great!

I've never been a fan of head scarves, but I think this is cute, it is so 60's.

As a child of a 60s, I can tell you that you are spot on! We all used to wear head scarves, and most of us either knitted or crocheted. It was all part of the communal thing. That type of scarf with the worsted weight yarn would’ve been likely For a cooler climate or a winter time. Remember even though that was the hippie 60’s we still wanted to stay in style.

Hahahaha at the end the dog was looking at you as if to say….mum, what have you got on?? 😂

Since it doesn't work for you as a head scarf, you could go ahead and make a second one and sew them together as a triangle bag that you were talking about earlier. Cute market bag.

More patterns from the 60’s & 70’s PLEASE!

I think it's perfect for the beach...groovy. Thank you

Single crochet a thousand times or okay a thousand times lol! Same diff! This was fun and I have thick curly hair. My mom used to put these on me in the 70's.

I do enjoy these mystery patterns, they are fun to watch. But I REALLY like your tutorials!! I The vintage styles are gorgeous and I love that you model the finished pieces for us. I recently made the sampler stitch poncho and I’ve had my fingers crossed for a floppy hat tutorial for the summer! Thank you so much for your hard work, research and fun videos ❤️

These videos really never get boring

You are an artist! To experiment with a pattern is normal!

I think this would make a cute bandana top! If you put two strings from the top of triangle to tie around neck and two to tie bottom around your back. It would be a cute summer top!

Just found you and really enjoying the tutorial. Now I have to find wherever I hid my crocheting stuff.

Okay, I am 10 minutes in and I am calling this as a Hippy Shawl. I think I made one of there in 1967!lol

I’m so excited to have come across your channel! This is so fun!

PS: As a child of the 1960’s myself, and can attest to the following because I owned a couple of these…keep going on the triangle until it is large enough for the front of a poncho, then make a second one. sew together across the long side but leave an opening for your head!

That was the style back in the’60’s. ❤️

Groovy.

Cute bandana....❤ quite popular in the 60's and I notice they're popular again...

When I was growing up in the 60s these hair bandannas were popular my mom wore them alot it was a life saver for housewives running to the store without fixing their hair my mom wore them all over the years good for outdoors to corral short hair when u couldn't Pony tail it good memories of my mom wearing those she recently passed I love the good memories ❤

@davidingram1016

Ай бұрын

David’s wife speaking - I don’t remember crocheted bandanas but cloth ones that matched your dress or skirt The idea of using lighter weight yarn or even yarn that ppl use to make socks out of would be good. I grew up in california so maybe the yarn scarves were used in cold weather states instead of the tried and true winter that that messes up the hair?

OMG, I actually remember these. I remember women wearing these things back in the 60's.

Love seeing what the old project looks like when you're done.

Take no notice if the nit pickers, it is your channel and I think you are fantastic !!!😊

😅 you made me laugh. What a great idea to use mystery patterns! Loved it.

I was born in 1963 & everything was very colorful! I remember wearing lots of Ponchos & head bandanas. ❤ I think we all deviate from originals when making stuff. That makes it our own original! If people don't like that, they can start their own channel and do their own thing. I always say... You do you & I'll do me! ❤ When you have the word "single" that many times, maybe say "one"? 😂

Plz don’t stop your tutorials!I love all of the things you’re doing.

I remember this pattern from the Coats & Clark little 15 cents instruction book that I purchased at our local Woolworth’s. This was a blast from the past that inspired me to go into my projects box and find my original one. Thank you for the walk down memory lane.

She probably had a lot of "teased hair" going on underneath 😀. Long live the 60's! Thanks much❤

It’s cute!❤ Pretty sure the model had a bouffant hairdo under the headscarf.

Single crochet substitute words- skitch, scoot, and scrochet😂, scooch is also good for me!

These were hugely popular in the 60s and 70s festival goers would go mad for these today.Well done 🇮🇪💚

You are too funny! I love it how you make fun of yourself! I do as well! Got to love the 60’s! 😇🙏❤️

I remember having seen many of these during my childhood. They were used primarily as a way of holding hair out of the face while working, but also to keep some of the dust from settling on the hair, as well. It was loose by design, so as to cover hair that was pulled back or up, to serve as a utilitarian accessory, a fun, creative alternative to the typical basic kerchief or scarf that was most commonly used for this same purpose. I really enjoyed the mystery! Well done! 😍🧕

The wig is gorgeous

I try and watch all the videos but can't always. I do love the mystery ones because it is neat to see how you interpret the patterns and tweak things to work out. It is also fun to try and guess what it is going to be as you are making it. I hope you don't stop doing your tutorials either because they are so informative. I have seen that tutorials don't get as much views because people only access it when they need it. I am constantly looking up tutorials on how to do stitches but not so much for huge projects, unless I am working on that particular project and have to keep referring back to tutorial. Thanks for all your work. You help bring humour and colour to a world on fire.

❤ LONG COMMENT: You did great! I love the "turn into a purse/bag" idea! It would make a really nice reusable market shopping bag. I'm sure the ladies in the past didn't "follow patterns to the letter" either, making their own decisions and in their own way; from color choices to how they made the stitches. Crochet is about fun and creativity and you give that in your tutorials and mystery videos. And if I may, I would like to add my vote to the tally of don't give up the tutorials either. Even if I decide not to make them, I do learn from them: your beaded 1920's purse being the perfect example! I never knew how to do beaded crochet until I watched your tutorial, so thank you very much! 😊 I would like to also add advice of making sure you take time for the things you want to make--even if you don't video them (hint hint- finish that peacock beadspread you've been wanting to finish😘) Nothing is worse than feeling burnt out on doing something you love. So ***sigh*** maybe make videos less often? There is no crochet/KZread law that says "Thou SHALT post videos every week, or every few days--OR ELSE!!!" Que dramatic ominous dun-dun-dunnnnnn. 😂 Keep up the great work. You have made so many unseen friends on this channel who are right behind supporting you! Myself as one of the major pillars holding you up. ❤❤❤❤ (BTW I am putting together a "Happy Mail" package for you. I just need to get things together, and to wait until my funds are a little less tight before I ship it. My hope is to have it you before the end of May. 🥰)

My first time watching. It was fun!

This was such fun Corinna ..thank you so much ….you put a smile on my face just when I needed it….❤❤❤❤❤

I had several of these growing up. I wore them every day. Great pattern!❤

Oh boy, another adventure.

looks great! love the ridges. i love that you’re reviving old patterns.👏🏼

ahh man, this is just perfect, love the colors and everything. gorgeous.

YOU ARE SO FUNNY. AND I LOVE THE VINTAGE IDEALS. CANT WAIT TO WATCH THE NEXT ONE.😅

I like it! It be great for camping.

Colour certainly came into its own in the 60’s,love this,you make me chuckle😊🫶

Thank you so much! Love your videos! I grew up in the 60's and this pattern is spot on. Red Heart was THE worsted yarn, but I think a softer modern worsted would work up lovely.

This video was a pleasure to watch! I love your relaxed, real chat. The mystery pattern is terrific. I'm looking forward to more.

This is the first time I watched the mystery video and loved it! You're so funny especially the part about the bleep stitch. Looking forward to more mystery videos. BTW, it turned out great!✨️💖✨️

Always a pleasure to watch your videos while crocheting my current project! 🥰❣ Now that we know what it is... I would make the ties by chaining and slip stitching back while doing the last round. I HATE hand sewing aka assembly. 😜

I really enjoyed listening to you . Your voice is very beautiful .. keep trying to picture your face to match your voice as I watched you make that beautiful pattern.. wow, in the end, we get to see you ..your so beautiful ❤

When I was very young, about 60 years ago, my mother had "head warmers" that I used to wear. They were like these and tied under the chin, like two in the picture wore. They were also rectangular. All I know is that my mother didn't make them!! Now, I'll learn. Thanks.

Noo, you look so cute! You'd get so many compliments. ❤

I was thinking it would be a halter top. Super fun head cover though! I love your wig too!

I didn't realize that I was NOT subscribed to you after a couple of weeks of having watched your videos. LOL Glad to say I rectified that oversight on my end!

Crochet 1 stitch as before. You are hilarious about the scarf. It is a success.

You're so funny. Thanks for making me laugh out loud.🤣🤣❤️

I’ve learned how to read patterns just by watching these

Oh, you popped up in my feed today out of the blue. Enjoyed your presentation plus really love vintage + crochet so subscribed.

I’m a new subscriber, thank you for your mystery video, I was nine years old at 1960, a good time.

Love these vintage patterns and the surprise of what they turn into. Uk here 🇬🇧👋

Definitely a success in execution! Pattern choice of yarn, not so much. It’d be much prettier in dk weight. Love your videos. Thank you. 🦋

This 1960s Mystery pattern video popped up today probably because I’m a crocheter. I LOVED it! I agree with a previous commenter as you can learn so much continuously watching other crochet videos. Yeah I’m old (75) so guessed it right off. And the wig looked great as it was perfect for the longer straight hair worn back then. I’m thinking I’ll work one up in DK as my hair is quickly thinning UGH. I don’t want to wear hats so the “kerchief” would work great without looking like a biker chick. I just had to subscribe and will enjoy your video library. And you know the Mysteries come 1st!

This was a fun video 😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 The scarf looks good on you👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🥰

Made one in the 60's . We wore them all the time. Love your mystery crochet segments!

Great job as always. I love these mystery patterns and learn so much watching you work through them. Thank you sooooooo much for putting so much time and effort into these for everyone to enjoy ☺️

Hi! I like watching these so much while i crochet, i can leave you on and listen and see if what i think is happening is anything close to what it is. 😂❤

It looks cute on you. I use to wear bandanas on my hair back in the day.

I love this bandanna. I will be making it for my granddaughters

I just found you! I love this vintage pattern!

i got home from schooling about an hour ago and wanted to crochet something, even started something and ended up frogging it… in search of something that i could crochet i ended up here… watching this video from beginning to ending without skipping or anything, without crocheting anything myself but WOW was it so… unbelievably entertaining! it was so funny and i‘m just so glad i found you and your channel

What an amazing video. Its the first time I've ever seen you thank you. How you actually made sense of all that i don't know lol. I love your pretty nails x 👏🥰🧶💅

Gonna have to make a couple for my preteen nieces 😊. Maybe in sock weight cotton. Cute

😊 I made this with RedHeart rainbow colors.....ah memories 😂

This is so cool. A challenge that would be so fun.

I should watch the full video. But I just can’t wait to see it finished. I guess I will suggest keep going and turn it into a poncho. Or some kind of bag. A swing for a kitty.

I never do beginning and end of row increases in first and last stitch, but do them in the stitches next to them. Gives a lovely smooth edge. 😊

I noted something in the pattern, it says worsted 4 ply , worsted and 4 ply are two different ply yarns. If you had used 4 ply the results would have been different. Nevertheless I think our 3 granddaughters would love to wear these, so out come the ( original) colours and I’ll make a start. I absolutely love your channel, your sense of humour and your ingenuity. Please don’t change a thing. “ if it’s not broken, don’t fix it.”👋👋🇦🇺

Gosh you brought back memories!!! I had a brown corduroy one with brown/purple paisley on the reverse. I'm sure I had more but that one stands out. Would wear to go motorcycle riding, I had long, straight hair. Tuck the point in back under the ties and wear it lower on the forehead.

I love it! I’m currently working on a granny stitch shawl, it’s totally 1960’s using Walmart brand yarn called tutti fruiti, bright purple, orange yellow pinks, I will be seen from miles away🧡💛💗❤️💜

I am a child of the 60's so it looks like the 60's. It wasn't a fail it was a different time is all. Pretty colors. New subscriber. I think it will help me with reading patterns also. Thanks. I do think they could have said Sc all the way the center and then do 3 Sc and then continue to the end with Sc. lol like they do now.

You guessed the reason for the size! Back then, many women would grocery shop with rollers in their hair, and would cover them up with a scarf. Plus, most young women and girls had very long hair. Think Woodstock.

Yayyy another mystery pattern 🥳🥳🥳

I love your mystery videos. It is always neat to see what you end up with. If you take fingering weight yarn and made it I think you would like it better.

I at first thought it was gonna be one of those halter tops they used to wear😅. I'm just learning how to read patterns. They are intimidating😅love the schnauzer we had 3

I think it looks great!
