  • I have an even quicker hack for no ‘turning bumps’. turn UNDER instead of OVER. It removes the twist that turning over makes. 🤷🏻‍♀️
  • @RandeT73
    I make my own stitch markers or stitch savers. Those come in super handy when a project needs to go into time out. I put a letter bead on the marker. I went to a local farmer's market, there was a gentleman there with a crochet stand. He put skeins of yarn into clean 2 liter bottles, he cut the bottoms of the bottles put the skein in, taped up the bottom ran the working yarn through the bottle opening.
  • The ply you did is called Navajo ply and they do this to have thicker yarn for their rugs. I have used it in knitting. Thank you and the best to you.
  • @fidothecdn
    The hacks to neaten the edges and ply-up a single strand of yarn are amazing!

    I enjoy making blankets, anything wider than 2 ft. here is my savior, after I get almost a foot high, I accordion fold the blanket about 3-5 inches wide, thicker the yarn, wider the fold, then tie the bundle, I used scrap yarn, go around 2 times and tie, so now you have a bundle on your lap, the working edge opens like a fan, and as you work your Blanket, keep tying as it gets longer, I like doing this as that my cat helps me, she can not lay on it, it stays clean, can travel with it, Bags up much easier. I enjoy your shows.

    I have been crocheting for 28 years, and I learned a couple new tricks. Thank you!! 👏I am saving this video!😊
  • @helloitstabitha
    Hack No. 3 is genius. Turning one strand into 3. Love it! :)
  • I love all these tips except the one where you missed a stich. It's a clever tip but I would never be able to live with myself if I just patched it up, even tho it would save me time and energy having to undo my work. Kudos to you tho for finding a new idea for fixing your work, it's ingenious, it's just not something my horrible perfectionist nature would allow me to actually do, and then live peacefully with myself afterwards. The tip I especially love, is the one where you used a loop in the wool to change a single thickness of yarn into a thicker one. What a clever idea! I am new to your channel but I think I'm utterly hooked, pun intended, on your videos. Thank you for posting these tips and tricks, they are very helpful. God bless you
  • @BlessedBaubles
    Oh my gosh!!! That 3 ply trick is GENIUS!! Thank you!!
  • @galiane7365
    Love the ones for the straight edge and how to triple your thread without using three balls at once! Thank you!
  • @suer6103
    Awesome hack #3!! So genius making 3 strands out of 1. Thanks!
  • I love this hack! However, when I use multiple yarns, I just place each ball/skein in a bowl or flower pot. I don’t have any tangles when I do this. ❤❤❤
  • @peggyharwell3674
    Great tutorial Amanda, you have a great camera presences, looking straight into the camera and not focussing off camera . These hacks are great.
  • @jesusajuarez6955

  • @AugustaDanner
    These hacks are amazing! It makes me want to sit down and start crocheting something where I might be able to use one of them. :face-blue-smiling:
  • @madelaine3209
    Wow, wow, WOW!!!!!!! Thank you for the straight edges.
  • I had forgotten about Navajo plying. Thanks for reminding me. I wonder this will do will self striping yarn.
