Hi, I am Syrian and live in Saudi Arabia. I got covid-19 and must spend 10 days quarantine. Learning how to knit a teddy bear helps me in doing so.Thanks for sharing all this valuabl information. I enjoy following you chanel.

Hello Elise, am from Israel. ‏‪ I started crocheting 2 years ago. Your videos were very helpful for me. Now I want to try knitting a bear and your video is the first to watch. Thank you❤ 15:46

@janetkinne8233 2 жыл бұрын

Here in Venice, Florida and have to let you know how much I enjoy your videos. I made a little cotton Rabbit a couple years ago but it just didn't come out looking all that great. I nearly threw her away but hated to part with her so she stayed buried in my closet. After watching your youtubes I got her out and analyzed what I was disappointed in and yes, it was her face I had embroidered. I picked out the stitches and kept redoing it till I was happy. Thank you for your encouragement. She now sits on a shelf proudly on display. Oh, I also put a teeny bit of blush on her with powder blush. Can't wait to try another one and this time I will use a much nicer yarn like you recommend. Now I am intrigued with the Mary Jane Tearoom bears! Thank you again for such wonderfully fun videos.

That makes me so very happy to know that your little bunny is now proudly sitting out on your shelf for all to see!! And it really usually comes down to the face that is what disappoints us. It's the hardest part to get right. I redo the faces over and over again because I either messed up the embroidery, made the eyes weird or sewed on a snout crooked. And I have a friend that just moved to Venice, FL and she has been sharing so many gorgeous photos of the city! Makes me want to move there!!! 🌴🌊🌞

Often we only need someone to believe in us when we tend to doubt our abilities. It's one of the things I love about you. I appreciate seeing your earlier work side by side with this little girl. We all improve over time if we do the work. I'm excited to see what you will do next! Hugs...

I’m a SAHM (from Raleigh!) and started learning crochet at the beginning of quarantine. I’ve made a ton of blankets so far, but just absolutely adore amigurumi. There’s just something about them that takes me back to my childhood and makes me feel so content and peaceful while I’m creating them. I ordered the Pica Pau book based on your recommendation on Tuesday and just finished Victor the Frog. I can’t decide whether to do Harry Wolf or Huge Bat next! Thank you so much for all the hard work and love you put into your craft. You’re truly an inspiration!

Hi from Tennessee! Really enjoying your knitted and crochet toys and tips! I consider myself an experienced knitter doing quite a range of projects, including sweaters, baby blankets, socks, hats, felted mittens, scarves, totes, etc and a few toys too. I really appreciate your tip to get the face right first! And as I looked back on my toy making experience, my biggest frustration has been trying to finish the face! So now, when I get the face done first, I really enjoy the remaining pieces!

New subscriber to your channel. I agree that MJTs patterns are so Devine. She was the first pattern that I made. I actually taught myself how to knit and purl just so I could make Candy Bear for my grandchildren. They all turned out beautiful. Like you I also crocheted but had never knitted. I didn’t have access to all the special yarns that the pattern called for just what was available at Hobby Lobby and Michaels and the bears still turned out beautiful. I also love Alan Dart toy patterns, I have done Humpty Dumpty and Scooby Doo.

I apologize-I told you it was possibly made by Dritz, when in fact it is by a company called Prairie Farm Designs. I believe they are now defunct, as the date on the package insert says 1992 (told you I've been using this tool for a long time, LOL). It's called a STUFF-IT II, and I would check on eBay for it.

Another wonderful video - so helpful! I am a Berroco Vintage junkie, I have a large stash with several discontinued colors that I just want to hoard! Have you seen the Dollytime knitted dolls? They fall in the So Stinkin Cute category

Speaking of other knitting patterns, have you seen all the free Jean Greenhowe knitted dolls? They are SO cute. She has many small doll scrap yarn type patterns that I feel like are not so big to be daunting, and small enough for a newer knitter to be able to complete to practice. I think that would be a really great video: practicing on small cute free toy patterns! She has booklets to buy also on her website. Just type her name it should come up.

Hi Elise, Your videos make my day. I bought the Knitted Animal Friends after watching your video and have made 2 of them the Owl and the Mouse. Just a quickie, I clicked on the link to your blog post and scrolled all the way down but cannot find the section where I put in my email address for the downloadable resource for MJTR patterns, am I being really stupid. Many thanks

Oh the mouse is so cute! I want to knit that one too! Make sure to click the link in the description box below to go straight to the blog post. When you scroll down you'll see a yellow box to put your email address. Hope that helps! 💛

Would you say Mary Janes or little cotton rabbit is a better first time project. Just wondering who I should dive in with first. I know you say wonderful things about both artists...fyi your channel is inspiring!

I would start with the Mary Jane's Tearoom pattern first and then the Little Cotton Rabbits! Hope that helps!! 💗💗

My first knitting project was a teddy bear and I was able to create him without too many problems. But then I taught myself crochet and am totally dedicated to amigurumi. I would love to make a MJT doll. Do you think it is too difficult for an inexperienced knitter. I have been watching videos on knitting in the round because I really dislike seaming and assembly. The less, the better. Any thought?😊

@EliseRoseCrochet 3 жыл бұрын

Since you have already made crocheted amigurumi and have already knitted a teddy bear, I doubt you will have any problems. These are the best written knitted toy patterns I have ever come across. They are so clear and easy to understand. Plus she has the option for you to knit them in the round! You should definitely go for it! 💓

I've made many of her patterns and the only thing I changed is I knit some of the flat ones in the round. If u have some of her patterns they r easy change from in the round to flat or the other way around. I would rather knit in the round because I hate to seam them up.

How is it the coupon code expired the same day that this video was published? Doesnt seem fair.

@EliseRoseCrochet 3 жыл бұрын

Actually the video was published the morning of the 9th. I was just relaying the information. Susan generously shared the coupon code when I asked her permission to show her Instagram photos in the video. It was just a coincidence that my video would come out during her sale time, not that the code was created for the video. I think the sale had been running for a while. You can follow Susan on social media to see when she has sales.
