Here's the free written pattern for the bee! www.themaryjay.com/free-patterns/mini-chunky-bee-crochet-pattern

Hi Mary, thanks for the tutorial. Sorry about any random comments you might see from me. I commented on someone else's video but it ended up here.

All the other tutorials was hard but this one was easy

I had black and yellow yarn just sitting there so i looked up tutorials and this was the first one i saw. I am almost finished with my bee, I just need to find some white and pink yarn and some eye's, and poly fill? then I can get back to it after pay day. Wonderful tutorial, Thank You.

Thank tou for giving us the tutorial. I really wanted to make this for my cousin on her birthday.

I have loved and admired your bees for a while, thank you so much for making this tutorial!

Thank you so much for this tutorial!!! It helped me so much and this was the first successful plush I have made and I love it! I tried other peoples tutorials but they either went to fast or did not explain it properly, so I’m so great full for this😊👍❤️

Well I didn’t name my bee but I made a different coloured bee. I made a strawberry bee! And it turned out so beautiful

Thank you so much for your awesome tutorial. I've been trying to master the magic circle forever and your explanation made it so easy. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

This is my first bee, I looked at other tutorials, but they were too hard. Thank you!

I think this tutorial made it super easy to crochet this bee! ❤ thank you for sharing!

I LOVE your chanell. Also, your tutorials are so easy to follow, and your voice is VERY calming. The way you explain the steps is amazing and very clear. Thank you for your tutorials. Keep going! ❤❤❤❤

Hi just wanted to let you know I love ❤️ your videos and me and my Nan are learning to crochet and this is what inspired us!

Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial! I love my bee! Would definitely recommend this video to beginners!! I love how you go at a slow pace! And you explain everything so well!😊

hi pls could you make an Axolotl tutorial? I would love to try it! Thank you so much for making ACTUAL beginner tutorials. They have really helped me 🙂

Oh my God😮I’m super super happy to find your channel ❤❤❤thank you so much for sharing your talents

Awesome, in depth tutorial, thanks so much!!

You are amazing. I tried to learn how to crochet like a year ago. I really wanted to make some plushys. I got super frustrated and gave up. I couldn't do anything. Not even a simple pad or smth. Now I really wanted to try again and searched for beginner tutorials and I found you. You gave me so much hope, because I was actually making progress. And now I have a cute little plushy bee! He's a bit shabby, but I love him! Thank you so much for this tutorial. I really hope you'll be able to make more of this kind.

If it’s hard for beginners to make the magic circle start with a slipknot chain 2 And add seven single crochets in the second chain from the hook

You helped me so much thank youuuuuuu❤️❤️❤️

I used 6mm hook and it worked just as well! I seriously suggest having a light source when youre skipping the stich in the color changes, i accidentally skipped 2 stitches instead of 1 so it kinda shrunk midway 😭 but the pattern is correct, highly suggested to begginers and above!

If you get a pointy in your magic circle then what you do is leave it and the point will go away either when you crochet a couple more rounds or when you stuff it ❤❤

Hi I’m currently ten and making this for my best friends birthday I have a 6mm hook so how many stitches should I do

thank you ♥can you do more tutorials please

I love your videos! Please do a turtle tutorial pls

Hii!! I ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ YOUR VIDS!!!

I love your bees! Do you have a pattern for your regular size bee?

Tip for y’all, I place my stitch marker on the first stitch of the round so that I know when I need to do the next round’s instructions. The first stitch in that stitch you need to attach to after round 1- the one where you made 7 single crochets in the magic circle.

Thank you so much Mary! I think I have too many bees in my house now but it still isn't enough. Also question what type of yarn do you use and where do you buy it?

Turned out sooo cute 😍took over 3 hours tho😂

So I’m following this tutorial and everything is going really well so far! It’s actually looking like what it should but the only issue is that I’ve got all these loose bit of yarn hanging out from where i tied the different colours together. Am I fine to cut these off without affecting the piece/unraveling? I’m realising their probably meant to be on the inside to be hidden but most of mine are on the outside cause I’m left handed and I’m reversing your steps

@themaryjay

Жыл бұрын

You can cut it shorter, but I wouldn't cut all of it off just because it could lead to it unravelling later. If it's on the outside, try pulling the yarn strands through to the other side with a needle. I'm not too sure what your piece looks like but you can usually also flip the piece inside out if you haven't started stuffing yet :)

Thank you for the tutorial!! How do I make a bigger bee?

Hi!! I really want to crochet this bee, but I can't close the magic circle with chenille yarn. It works with other ones but it is not working. I tried to make my stitches loser but its not working.

I rlly like your yarn fabric that your working with can you tell me witch brand is it and from where you buy it or leave a link below,it will rlly help me☺

Hi I'd love to make some of the plushies using your patterns. Can you please let me know where you buy your yarn from? Thank you x❤

Heya! I've tried to do this but my stitches keep decreasing each round and i'm not sure why, any help would be much appreciated!🥰

Hi, I just wanted to ask, do you have to add extra rounds if you're using worsted yarn?

@themaryjay

Жыл бұрын

Hi! You dont have to if you dont want to, but the bee will be really small. And if you want your bee to be a little longer, I would recommend maybe adding an extra row of yellow between stripes and/or before and after the first and last stripe.

@AbbyBryant1021

Жыл бұрын

Not an expert, but if your yarn is smaller you should use a smaller hook. I’d start with following the recommended hook on the yarn packaging and doing a test square to see if you like the tightness, and going up or down a size based on that

I did the seven single crochets in the magic ring but then my magic ring won’t tighten when pulling the tail end… it just broke. Any ideas why that might be?

@themaryjay

Жыл бұрын

In all transparency, I’m not 100% sure why it happens. But it does happen to me sometimes (more so when I first started crocheting than now). I think sometimes it’s just the way the yarn is if you’re using the blanket yarn and sometimes it breaks. I had a skein that kept doing that earlier last week. It’s frustrating but sometimes you just have to try again. If it’s just not closing, it may be a issue with the circle. Does your magic circle close and open before you add the stitches? If so, are you working the single crochets over the yarn tail as well (over both strands of yarn)? If you didn’t work over both strands of yarn, that may be why it won’t close after the stitches are added. Sometimes it may just be too tight, so watch your tension. If all else fails, you can use the yarn tail to sew closed the circle after you get further into the piece.

Get acrylic yarn and make your magic circle with it. Put the stitches into the magic circle with your blanket yarn. Acrylic yarn is very unlikely to snap so it is good to do magic circles with it.

Can you please type down the type and size of yarn???

Tried to make this and it didn’t work. I am decently experienced and I tried several times, I don’t know what happened
