Welcome to Create and Crochet! My name is Patricia and I am passionately creative! When I first started this channel, I shared all sorts of creative content, as well as content related to nurturing and healing. As time has passed, however, I have become more passionate about crochet and my content has reflected that.
I love to create designs that are super simple to make and are suited for beginners. And what I love, even more, is making these designs beautiful so that even someone new to crochet can create something pretty, right from the start! I hope you find inspiration here.
As of June 2022, I will be adding less content due to health reasons. BUT...I have over 160 video tutorials here, so there is still lots of content to inspire you. Check out all my playlists to find what you are looking for!

In this tutorial, you will learn how to make the Granny Square Christmas Stocking AND how to make a lining for it! As lovely as crocheted Christmas stockings are... they are not overly practical.

Simple Crocheted Scarf for Beginners ~ Revised
I just wanted to say THANK YOU for sharing this tutorial. I made it and it took me four hours. I made mine with my scrap yarns....😂😂😂
You are so welcome!
This is great but what do you do with the middle of the granny square, the magic circle tail, do you weave that string in, too? That’s currently my problem.
I rarely use a magic circle to start granny squares, I do a ch 4 or 5 and make a ring. But...if I do a magic circle...I always, always tie a knot before weaving in the tail end! Now, if your question is how to darn in the tail ends... see this tutorial at 15:00 ua-cam.com/video/uFo7oX7QTDA/v-deo.html
Thank you. I just finished a slow stitched quilted bowl which isn’t as bowl shaped as I would like. I remember my mom using the sugar starch for her crocheted items. Of course I never knew how she made it.
You're welcome :)
Beautiful
Thank you :)
How would you join together
Go to the description box below the video (click on ... more) There is a tutorial for a scarf using this square and there is a technique shown there to join them together.
Your music is PERFECT! I love it! Thank you for the instructions and jazz! 🥰
You are so welcome!
Não possuo habilidades com o crochet, porém sou apaixonada por essa arte e suas possibilidades❣️❣️❣️ Penso que essa técnica usada é libertadora, me aventurando para aprender e criar❤❤❤
¡Maravilloso! Puedes comenzar con mi Serie de Ganchillo para Principiantes: patriciafentie.com/2019/06/17/beginner-crochet-series/ Puedes usar subtítulos (CC) y luego ir a configuración y elegir español. No es perfecto para la traducción, pero puede resultar útil. ¡Disfrutar!
@@createandcrochetwithpatricia ah, muito obrigada!🌷🌷🌷
Can you add video on how to join the motifs, please?
See the link to a scarf tutorial in the description box below this video (click on "... more" to open the box). That tutorial shows how to join the motifs.
is it sticky? If you have an ant problem would they go for it? 😂
Some people have had issues with ants. Where I live on the west coast of British Columbia, I've never had a problem. I have Christmas ornaments from over 40 years ago. If it is too sticky, then you may have added too much sugar, or it just may need more time to dry.
@@createandcrochetwithpatricia Thanks for the info!
Enjoyed, thank you 🙏🏻
You’re welcome 😊
You're too fast for a beginner
You can go to settings, choose playback speed and choose 0.75. This is a nice speed to follow along. Make sure to check out the updated video tutorial in the description box below where I use a lighter yarn (click ...more).
Thanks for sharing ❤
You are so welcome
Thank you so much for this awesome pattern ❤❤❤
You’re welcome 😊
The yarn is tooo dark to see there to put the hook..but Great tutorial..clear n slow❤
👍
you are a blessing
Thank you!
Udało mi się ❤❤❤❤❤ moja pierwsza opaska na głowę!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊🎉🎉
Thank you!
Hi, found your video today in 2024 and well on my way making granny squares. Thanks so much.
You are most welcome!
Would you suggest this project for a person who is crocheting for the first time and has no experience. I am a young person just seeking out new hobbies to try, and crocheting appealed to me! Also how many mm is that hook?
Hi! Could u pls answer my questions?
I would recommend starting with my Beginner Crochet tutorials so you learn proper techniques: ua-cam.com/video/K4wRQ06OjOg/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/uFo7oX7QTDA/v-deo.html. This crocheted bracelet is the best beginner project because it is done using only the chain stitch: ua-cam.com/video/FZ0E8_lQXts/v-deo.html Then this headband is made using a simple single crochet stitch: ua-cam.com/video/fvEuEtNdMqI/v-deo.html and can be sewn together as shown in that tutorial or with the knot look of this tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/gLb0LJ46QuM/v-deo.html This headband is also good for beginners, but the first one is even easier. Start with small projects like these and then graduate to something like a scarf or granny squares. I wouldn't start with a blanket until you've made a couple of smaller projects. Check out my playlists for all sorts of different projects!
@@createandcrochetwithpatricia thanks! Your my go to channel for crocheting!
@@createandcrochetwithpatriciahow many mm is the hook ur using in this video?
See 2:00 in the video where I am discussing the supplies. I always provide that information at the beginning of each tutorial as I talk about the supplies.
That was too fast and couldn’t see where you went in. This is the problem learning I can’t see where you go in to the circle 😢
You can go to settings, click on 'playback speed' and choose 0.75 (or less) to slow the video down. Also, if you are brand new to crochet, check out my beginner series to learn all the basic tips, techniques and stitches. It is in the link below the video (click on ... more)
Love the colors you used 😊
Me too! I was thrilled with how it all turned out :)
@@createandcrochetwithpatricia I think it turned out really beautiful 🤩
Beautiful. Great tutorial. Can't wait to give it a try!
@@countryside76 thanks! :)
I'm using "Papatya Ba Tik" DK variegated yarn for mine. The colour are beautiful. I have one question, when doing the border how many trebles do i put into the chain spaces?
I show this at 21:35 in the video and using US terminology, there are 5 dc's in the ch sp.
Beautiful scarf ❤❤🎉🎉
Thank you :)
Thank you! I saw someone doing this kind of crochet as we sat in an outdoor musical performance and have been very curious about it ever since. Now I will keep some setups in my travel supplies!
Yes, this would be a great craft to do while traveling!
This is a great pattern. No counting really needed.
Thank you!
Not trying to hate but this was really hard for me maybe I’m to Beginner for this
Have you check out my beginner tips? Sometimes we don't learn one or two little tricks or techniques that can make all the difference in our crochet skills. Also, learning anything new takes time... be patient and kind to yourself! patriciafentie.com/2019/06/17/beginner-crochet-series/
I really like this with the smaller holes. I also like the foundation row of single crochet . Thank you for showing both ways to start. 😊
You're most welcome!
I love this and the yarn is so cheerful! Thank you :)
I'm so glad!
Thank you for showing it with smaller holes. For nursing home lapghans they want no holes or the smallest holes possible. You’re a blessing and I love all of your tutorials.
You are most welcome, and thank you for your kind comment!
Hi can anyone help with a query please, I am making a continuous granny square blanket fir greatcgrandaughter single bed, how do i get the lengh after achieving the widthvof 39 length 75 without making it bigger in widthvthan single bed. Many thanks.
There are two possibilities to create the blanket you want. The first is to make the square blanket until you reach the desired width of the blanket. Then you could add rows of the granny stitch on each end to get the blanket to the length you want. Stay tuned for a tutorial on the straight granny stitch, that will be my next tutorial. You could also make a rectangle blanket, but getting the proportions exact would take some special math (and I'm sorry I can't help you with that). But here is a tutorial for a rectangle blanket, and of course, you can make it as large as you like: ua-cam.com/video/rvx3Wt0sGuM/v-deo.html
Thank you so much for your response Patricia, sorry for late thanks,but I have just woken up, it's 7.30 am here in England UK.i Will do your first suggestion of adding rows as I am already 800grms in.don't fancy unraveling that much. I am also now a new subscriber.many Thanks Sonja.😊@@createandcrochetwithpatricia
I'm not sure if this new tutorial will come up for you in YT, but here is the GS straight stitch pattern. You can start in one corner of your blanket with a set of 3 dc, and in your case, you'll add a ch1 between the clusters. The second row would begin with the ch3 (as a dc) and end with a dc. Enjoy! ua-cam.com/video/kmtNg9gYyRE/v-deo.html
Do you have a book please on this?
That is an interesting idea! But I have no idea how I'd get one published... Here are all the blog posts I have created: patriciafentie.com/category/crochet/free-form-crochet-series/ And here is the whole playlist on UA-cam: ua-cam.com/play/PLVxSmwID02OBSOOK2rrFs8VQybZisCqJA.html
Last year I was looking for a pattern for a scarf for my dad. I found this and I was happy I could do it so quick and easy. Than my brother liked it and asked for same pattern. I just finished his scarf and thinking of using the pattern for matching ear warmer. Thank you for this video. It is so well explained and everyone who knows crochet hook and double crochet can make it. I will definitely use the same pattern for other things, like pillow case maybe.😊
Wonderful, and you are so welcome! :)
Thanks so much for the wonderful pattern!!♡♡ i made this for my grandmothers birthday, it was last minute but luckily i made it before the venue 😂
wonderful...and you're most welcome!
Hmm i always do freehand crotchet but it is always perfectly symetrical... never occurred to me to make an odd shape😂
Have fun!
Synthetics are horrific for shedding microplastics - a troublesome nearly forever material we have a nasty addiction to. This is not an indictment of your teaching, Teacher - but I find it nearly impossible to hold my tongue on homemade crafts using plastic, especially in fabrics that will receive a great amount of abrasion and fiber loss and microplastic shedding over its life; shedding into our own bodies and those of our loved ones, even the smallest of them - including pets… it’s the gift that keeps on giving right down the pipes from our washing machines, set free into an environment that actually IS learning how to deal with the synthetic material. Various worms and bacteria and other living systems can break it down - but not nearly fast enough nor widely enough. So it has to start with us. My thanks to you for inspiration on technique and being enthusiastic about teaching others how to make things at home. What about collecting and working natural fibers around us into yarns…? Say… cat hair? It can be carded and spun, right? Think of all the pet grooming places, all the surgeries that shave animals pre-op, potentially even fur from deceased animals, as some already do as a way to keep their pets close… thanks again for the instruction.
Thank you for your thoughtful points.
Thank you so so much! 😍
You're so welcome!
Where Can I find the yarn > Please ?
See 1:10 in the video for the brand name of the one ribbon yarn. As I say in the video...that brand is no longer available, except maybe used on Etsy. Everything else was collected over many years at thrift shops. You can use all sorts of yarns, ribbons, lace for this project. Use your own creative incentive!
Sono sottobicchieri? Grazie
Quelli piccoli sono sottobicchieri e quello grande è un sottopentola.

And me what's the meaning of free to you
You can follow the pattern on UA-cam for free, you can follow it on my blog for free, and there is the option to purchase a downloadable PDF version of the pattern for a small fee. But you don't HAVE to purchase this ad free version, you can totally make the pattern for free via the video or blog. What part of that is not free?
Thank you for your tutorial. It was really well explained. I haven't crotched for years and this really helped getting me started again 😊x
You are so welcome!
