Pun Count: 0:53 "Within the fabric of my soul" 4:21 "Knot beginner friendly at all" 5:00 "I wanna Knot happen" 7:27 "Time for the Knitty Gritty" 9:12 "I'm Sew Salty over that Knot!" I don't know if these sewing puns were intentional Jackie, but I was following the pattern. Thanks for reviewing a sewing kit! I love sewing, I used to sew things all the time as a kid with my mum. But, it's not for everyone. Sewing is harder than it seams ;)

"Well, you're salty too so welcome to the family" lmfao

Salty Crafty you should list 2 other pros: 1.) It is teaching a skill that is helpful for every human who wears clothes in order to repair a loose button, hem, or zipper. 2.) It has more gender neutral projects which increase the chances for males, who are not usually introduced to sewing (at least in US), an opportunity to learn a skill to improve their life their entire lifetime...

She didn't put the sprinkles..........wow.............I only have one thing to say Don't tell Moriah Elizabeth

This kit seems really fun tho I want it aaaaaaaaa

As someone who's been sewing since I was a kid I can say for sure they really made tying a knot sound overly complicated in that book

I have been sewing for 9 years and I'm an award winning competitive cosplayer. I taught myself hand sewing and then later how to use a sewing machine. My grandfather was a tailor in New York, so sewing is in the blood coursing through my veins. I wouldn't consider myself a sewing expert nor a professional, but I would say I'm experienced. With that being said, those instructions on how to tie a knot are not only confusing, they are unnecessary. I paused and read them multiple times and I still had no idea what the hell they are saying. Just tie a knot like a normal human being, don't make it difficult. Those instructions? *In da trash*

As a mum, I’m so happy to get a no-holds-barred review of kids kits. I’m getting the klutz sewing and clay kits for my 7yo (She already needle felts and sews felt plushes so the suggested age doesn’t quite apply) and NOT buying her a goddamn poopsie slime.

looks like it has plenty of felt included but that needle ! Bah humbug. Not surprised the eyes were demolished at first attempts - every time the needle went through it left a big hole in the felt!! But makers of kit prob had to provide a HUGE needle for safety reasons. Impressed by your first time making felt thingummys!!! Loving these salty reviews

Hahah this was so funny! I actually sew for a living and now make plushie tutorials on my channel similar to these cuties and can’t help but feel people may be like this with some of my instructions 🙊🙊 I think I should definitely take it upon myself to slow down my tutorials!! I do my knots like in the book and the tie off also, I don’t even think about it now and never even thought to mention it before now 😂

I got this kit for my birthday, I had a good time. The eyes stayed for me the only problem I had was the needles were blunt. After a while I did get the knot but it is easier to do a normal knot.

As A not very coordinated human being. I feel like i would be happy that they had pre-cut cheeks and eyes. 😂😂

The sewing technique they're trying to get you to do to knot the thread is called a French knot. It's pretty satisfying to do one you get it done

The needle they give is waayyyyyyyyyy too large. If you use a smaller needle it will be easier for you.

"Have chocolate" Me eating ready salted crisps: *NO*

It’s 1:19 right now and I have school tomorrow... I still have my homework to do

Your salty reviews are honestly my favorite part of your channel, probably because I'm salty as well.

I bought a few Klutz kits when I was a teen. Their products are usually on the better side. I may pick this up.

Air sealed or air dried package still my favorite youtuber edit:you had the floss on the needle messed up that’s why the eyes didn’t stick.

This reminds me of the dear creative mind craft process. Steps 1. This is awesome 2. This is tricky 3. This is crap 4. I am crap 5. This is awesome 😎

I have this kit and love it to death, I bought a second one to complete them all because I used some fabric for other projects but the first doughnut was very very very hard, but after that and a cookie I was able to do it in 30 minutes and before that I was able to do it in 1 hour. And now I can do it in 10 hours :) it just takes practice :((( hehhehe in 11 now and the kit reminded me that there is a technique called *Sowing* (im sorry about my spelling :> ) Ohh god That was my longest comment Hope this will get pinned Like it Yay

actually that's how i learned to do sewing knots the more you do it the more the urge becomes temptation btw big big fan i love your video NerdECrafter all the way :3

Super easy way to make a knot in thread that anyone can do, even if they have sausage fingers: After threading needle take the ends of the thread and wrap them around the tip of your index finger a few times forming a circle. Push the circle of thread off your index finger with your thumb applying presure so that the thread between your finger and thumb twists as it comes off. Keep the twisted circle of thread between your index finger and thumb then pull while holding it firmly so that it forms a knot in the end of the thread. With a little practice this can be done one handed in one smooth motion where you pull the circle as you are pushing it off your index finger with your thumb so that the circle becomes smaller as you are twisting it and it becomes a knot by the time you let it go. This can be done using both ends of the thread or just one. This was much more complicated to explain than do, basically you are just tangling the ends of the thread while pulling it tight into a knot.

I actually have this kit and have lost the instructions and I’ve also made lots of these treats, they turned out pretty good. If you are steady handed I do reccomend this! I do get some of the points that have been made but I really like this kit!

That moment when you're reasonably early, and you're mad because you didn't get a notification, but then you realize you don't have notifications on... #NerdEFicationSquad Edit: i got a 💖 in about 2 minutes, and my heart is pounding. XD

The reason they use that knot is because it results in a nice large knot that won't slip through the felt

I always order my pizza with 3 pounds of salt

I’m watching this after having this kit and LOVING it for a loooong time. I’ve made almost everything in the book and even got creative with all my little faces and such. It definitely requires a lot of patience and is time-consuming. But I actually enjoyed the process, having nothing else to do with my time anyway lol. Once you get past the initial learning curve, it becomes super easy. The worst part for me was the finishing knot. I could never get it to work right so I just hand tied my knots at the end lol.

The reason it went through the felt was because you need to make the knot bigger.

I'm getting this. I'm really good at sewing, and I think that this would be super fun to do! I acually really like this! Thanks for this review!! Edit: thank you so much for loving my comment!

My favorite pizza? Just cheese, it's SALTIER that way. (In all seriousness, I do love plain ol' cheese pizza)

That's how I learned how to tie a knot for thread, it's the same technique in klutz's ribbon purse book. I love your videos and get a lot of inspiration from them, keep doing awesome stuff! :D

LOL!!! 😂 That knot is a sewist's knot or whatever it's called. It's literally my mom's favorite knot for sewing.😅 She tried to show me so many times how to do it but I always did it the way you did because it seemed easier. I finally noticed a tutorial by Lauren fairweather here on KZfaq that explained it so well that It just clicked!!😂 Once you have it down its literally so fast and shaves like 6 seconds off your knotting time!😜 That's pretty useful when you're tying knots so often for hand sewing.👍 💓 Thanks for the review!!!

I have this kit and made a few of the felt plushies. I actually found it pretty fun and included everything you need. I loved the book, and would recommend the kit! Thanks for sharing 💜

Reminds me of the felt pillow kits we did in Jr. High home ec classes. I have been sewing since around 5-6 with a little toy machine. But it was fun to watch a non sewer learn.

I bot this so long ago. I managed to make a bacon with a moustache xD

Klutz was my go-to as a child!! My mom would always give me money in the scholastic book fair to buy Geronimo Stilton and I always ended up buying a Klutz lettering book or FBI kit :/

You probably would've enjoyed it more if they told you to stick decorations on with some glue instead of sewing those tiny pieces on.

I recently recieved this kit as a Christmas present, and am here to see how the one and only SaltECrafter had to say. I am excited to try and will update on how it went x.

The French Knot they have you doing is one of the more advanced knots. And to keep stitches from popping, especially under dense pressure of over filled stuffing, they should have had you double stitch.

Roses are red Violes are blue Saltecrafter is awesome Just like you!😍

Wow+ That was SEW unexpected.

0:13 Me before my exams

These are so cute! I'm getting this. I've loved the other Klutz kits I've tried

I had bought the kit before I watched the vid and I was amazed, it was perfect! I don't know why you don't like it!🤔

This kit is great...I have this and it's really good

Jackie, you are so cute! I loved how you made Salty faces on the faces! I am glad you did this kit, even tho you do not like to sew! Thank you for stepping out of your comfort zone to do a review on these tiny stuffies!

The pizza really is the cutest little thing, awww! Nice job, you did great.

That was a beginner instruction on how to tie a knot in sewing because that was the one taught to us in school and sometimes when the thread doesn't hold on it means that your knot should be bigger😄

I Donut know if its worth it, But its Knot okay to make me think

Ooh, nice! I was just thinking of actually getting this kit :D Haven't watched the video jet, but I'm curious!

Kuddos to you! After the first time I watched this I went to price just the felt on wish. I ended up putting it on price watch and on my must have wish list. Thank you!

I'm not great with dexterity regarding sewing needles so I cheat. I get a longer length of thread (double what I'll need) then pull it through the needle so it's equal. Then take both sides at the ends together, wrap around my finger and the rub them together. It can take a couple of goes, but it'll make a larger knot than a simple tied one PLUS you don't lose the thread out of the needle! Just make sure you start the thread on the underside/inside of the project and you're good to go. Best bit? If you have to leave you project for a bit, you can't lose the needle - it's attached! Don't listen to the "rules" about the back/inside having to be as neat as the front. Do whatever works to get the results you want. 😀

Actual sewing floss and needles are super super cheap to buy (floss is like 80cents) and so is felt generally... tbh you could do all this for less than what the package costs.

I got my daughter the other version of this kit about 4 years ago, the one with bacon eggs cookies n I cant remember what else, n she totally dug it, so did I. We sat down with each other n made lil cloth foods. It was a bonding experience. I love their kits.

The reason the sewing was hard with the eyes is that needle is way too big.

So it’s safe to say this is a DONUT buy? Eh? Eh? Get it? ....I’ll see myself out

*me an experienced sewer face palming about how hard the book made a starting knot seem.* Jackie was right, you can literally just fold the string in half and triple knot it around the needle! This for beginners? You dont need a starting knot!

Jackie you did Amazing it looks Great!

I think the people who make these things that she is reviewing should take her advise and what she says am I right

Yassss, go off, sis. I'm so ready for this. My favorite pizza consists of just cheese, man. I'm easy.

I got this set on my Birthday so I could practice to sow for the first time. It was so hard.😢 And now I see this video, I can relate to the video!

Good god, Jacki, I just freaking love you. You are awesome.

I love that you are trying new crafts!

That knot... And the tie off..... What??? I make plushies for a living I have never seen this knot lol Omgerd the wittle donut and pizza are adorable I like mushrooms, banana peppers, spinach, and beef :V

My favorite pizza toppings? Bacon and pineapple. Come at me.

i love sewing. you did really well! I don't know that not I just do the same knot as you

PLEASEEEEE PLEASE MAKE A CHANNEL FOR SALTECRAFTER ONLY BC I LOVE THIS VIDEOS lol

You were worried cause you got two, I would've been like "Woooo! More 4 me!"

As an avid cross stitcher I think you did pretty great with the back stitching.

I was taught a simple knot like you! I never heard of the knot they explained. SALT-E!

11:55 No absolutely KnOt! Wasn't that a sew-per good pun! I'll leave

Review the Klutz Clay charms kit

I just learned how to knot the thread like this. It took me two tries to get it, but it is so much easier to have a knot that will not slide out of the fabric.

When you said”.get a some water or some chocolate to fight the salt” I had a pack of ready SaLtEd crisps! Lol

I love these reviews, they're both amusing but also actually useful. By the way, the pizza and doughnut looked very cute with their little frowns.

Can you try the “Kultz Clay Charms” ? Thank you 😊 I love your videos ^^

I love sewing and have made this kit. It is time-consuming but I had a lot of fun. They have since released two more Sew Mini kits, animals and gardens. I've made those as well.

This kit looks super cute and fun! I might just try it it! 💗

I got this kit for Christmas and I was salty because the needle was so blunt, it couldn’t go through the felt. I had to go to the store and buy myself a proper needle. The needle in the video looks very different from what I got in my package.

I am a plush maker and the needles they gave are way too big and the knot method is terrible!

Thanks, I’ve been considering this for my crafty niece and your review secured my decision :)

The fact that you made angry eyebrown on everything make me laught so hard hahahaha

I wanted to buy this as a kid..... NOT ANYMORE I think........

Ham and pineapple, but pick the pineapple off and give it to my brother bc I don’t like the texture 😂. The good flavor is still there 🤷🏼‍♀️

They turned out so cute. I think I might actually get this kit.

lol i have this kit and it made me fall in love with felt! years later and i'm still making and selling plushies :)

That looks like such a cute kit!!! For the knot just use a knotless loop ... it’s a cross stitching knot technique

I don't care what ppl say.. I love pineapple on my pizza lol

"Well your satly to so welcome to the family";)😄 that joke made me laugh so hard

I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one thag couldn’t figure out the knot lol. I was about to give up on sewing

I'd totally wanna buy this kit for the patterns. Though, i dunno if i'd wanna spend $25 for a book and pattern sheets

#NerdEFicationSquad YAAAS! Bring on the Salty Fries 🍟! And I love pepperoni on my pizza

Hello! Can you try the new Sew Mini Gardens kit? I’m wondering if they had changed anything to improve the kit

Funny, I love sewing, those projects look SUPER CUTE, I kinda want to buy this kit and try it myself. But not sure if it will be worth it.

Sounds like it's KNOT worth it!....I'll go now...

Bah. Notifications turned on... didn’t pop up until an hour later. WTF KZfaq, WTF??? Pizza is best with ham and pineapple 😁 Donuts are apparently best with scowls 😂

I can sew, and I got this kit for my birthday, and honestly one of the main pros I would list is that its changed how I tie a starting knot 🤣 its so much easier and faster to tie a quick knot using the method in this book, totally changed my sewing game! Lol! I wonder if having a bit more familiarity with it makes it simpler? But honestly I'd never used this method before and I loved it (and have taught it to other people since).

You forgot the money factor like buy yourself of what’s in box

Wow I just bought this on Friday at book fair lol😝 Edit:All the cons u had were the same cons I had lol😂😂
