in this tutorial we will be making a dreamcatcher you can use any size hoop
that you have available with this one I used picture frame wire and I'm not sure
if you can see it in there there's the picture frame wire and it is flexible so
it can take a little bit of a beating here and still hold its shape I have two
other wires here and this is just standard wire that I've wrapped around I
think this may have been another wire that I purchased from Home Depot this is
just regular all-purpose wire that I wrapped around a couple of times the
product I used with this was from Home Depot so it has kind of a shimmery look
to it and it doesn't pull as tight as what yarn or cotton will pull so when we
work with the yarn and the cotton it's going to pull a little bit tighter but
this was kind of a neat effect in how the loops just didn't pull up all tight
if you look right there you can see the knot I had to cut that closed and then I
put some Elmer's glue on it to hold it in place so it wouldn't come apart this
is the yarn I'm going to be using for this project I'm going to attach the
yarn to my crochet hook just wrapping it over like this in this direction and
then I'm going to work single crochet all the way around and this first one
will be challenging but I'm just going to work a random number it does not have
to be exact and I do tend to work mine full hoping that it will cover up most
of the wire but it's alright if it doesn't cover it all up it just adds a
little bit more character to it
and so I'm just working single crochet all the way around the wire putting my
hook underneath the wire working the single crochet and I'm going to move
this up here so when we get up here this part could be a little challenging to
work with and so you just do the best that you can working around the place
where you put your wire together and secure it
now I'm going to go on ahead and finish this up because it will be a little bit
time-consuming and this is just the same stitch all the way around the wire you
will want to make sure that your round of single crochet are not twisted before
you join I am back around to the beginning I'm going to join with the
very first single crochet and I'm putting my hook below the two loops at
the top and stitch wrap the yarn over pull through pull through the loop on
the hook and this is what we have completed and you can see it's not a
perfect circle and so actually if you wanted to bend it into a square or a
heart or a rectangle you can bend your wire into any shape that you want to I'm
going to be skipping anywhere from two to three stitches I'm going to skip two
stitches and work a double crochet chain one a double crochet in the same stitch
chain one double crochet in the same stitch chain one double crochet in the
same stitch chain one double crochet in the same stitch I'm going to skip two
stitches in the third stitch we will be working five double crochet with a chain
one between each stitch that's number one we're working on two chain one
working the third double crochet chain one
for chain one five skip one two stitches and then work a slip stitch skip two
stitches work a double crochet chain one double crochet chain one double crochet
chain one double crochet chain one double crochet chain one this time I'm
going to skip one two three stitches in the fourth work a slip stitch this is
what we have completed I'm going to skip two and then work a double crochet chain
one double crochet chain one double
crochet chain one double crochet chain one double crochet skip one two three
stitches work a slip stitch in the next stitch it's going to be the same thing
all the way around if your stitches start to curl up like that then that
would mean that you need to skip less single crochet so sometimes you can see
I'm skipping three stitches that would mean I would only skip two so this is
one of those projects that is flexible I'm going to go on ahead and finish this
on around because it's the same thing working five double crochet with a chain
one between each double crochet there will be fourteen one spaces I have
completed the last shell I've ended up with eleven and I'm going to work a slip
stitch right down here like this then wrap the yarn over and pull through and
then cut off the yarn then give it a tug and I will sew these in I've threaded my
needle I'm going to take and weave it between
the stitches like this and then cut off the yarn the other one will be sewn in
the same way and I forgot to mention with this one here at the beginning we
do want to make sure that we make a knot here like that and then gone ahead and
then sew the tail between the stitches
and then cut off the yarn I have threaded my needle and pulled through a
long strand of yarn now I'd rather have too much yarn than not enough I'm going
to start by putting my needle right below the wire and then pulling through
I want to make sure this stays in place so I'm going to loop it through with my
crochet hook just to make sure that it doesn't pull through I'm going to move
over a little bit and put my needle below the wire and then pull the yarn
through and it will take a while here because I have a long strand and you can
make your loops as long or as short as you want to make them I'm going to move
over a little bit and then do the same thing and then pull it through just like
that then I'm going to keep going around and my needle is going over the yarn
I'm moving over putting it underneath the wire and pulling it through moving
around putting my needle below the wire
I have room here for one more on this first round of loops I'm at the
beginning and so what I'm going to do is pull my yarn over and then just go right
through the center of this very first loop
I'm going to move over and go beneath this loop the same way and pull it
through and move them over to the next loop putting my needle a little bit on
moving over to the next loop
moving over to the next loop
moving over to the next loop I'm going around and around and it's kind of like
the continual round with crochet since we skipped that very first loop and went
over in the center I'm going through this loop
now going through the center of this loop
and through the center of this loop and you can see it's starting to get smaller
as we go towards the center and this loop
I don't want it coming apart so I'm going to dab some Elmer's glue right on
there this should hold the knot in place
and it will kind of all blend into
now I'm going to take and make a little knot right here at the beginning and
then sew the tail between these stitches like this
and cut off the yarn
here are two more feature crochet videos the annotation link will take you to
each video the first is a video showing you how to hand wind yarn around a tube
the purpose of this is to create a ball where the yarn comes out the center of
the ball the next tutorial is a crochet hat made in a spiral working with two
strands of yarn at the same time
