Channel Title: TRACED traceybeauty Channel Description: DIY & beauty videos <video> DIY: Beanie (Crochet Tutorial - Traceybeauty) Description: Latest haul: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHAmBevjE5E Hey everyone ! I hope you enjoy this tutorial. I will have many more crochet tutorials coming soon and other regular beauty videos too. I am really grateful for all of your support & am wishing you a very merry holiday season. Yarn used: Red Heart With Love: colors: Eggshell & Holly Berry (Walmart $3.50) Crochet hook: Susan Bates G6/4.00mm (Joanne's ~$2) plastic needle: purchased at Joanne's (~ $1) FAQs: 1) How much yarn did I use? About 60% of the pack of yarn that I showed. 2) How long does it take? Everyone crochets at different rates so it varies from person to person. I did not crochet this all at once so I don't have a time frame to provide you. 3) Why do I not use proper crochet terms? I learned how to crochet from my mom, who taught me in Vietnamese so I never learned the terms. I do not plan to learn them either because I believe that you can still learn from the visuals. I hope you understand.

I had to edit this video a total of 4 times and each time it took me 2-4 hours because my software kept crashing for some reason but it's finally up! I used a very basic/beginner's pattern for this tutorial but don't you think that by making the scarf in 2 different colors, it makes a huge difference as an accessory for your outfit? I'm obsessed with it. Materials used: Susan Bates crochet hook: 6.0mm & 4.0mm Boye plastic needle LionBrand Vanna's choice yarn: taupe & linen *Measurement of the scarf: 178 stitches x 10 rows * (52" x 8") Quick Notes: 1) I know, I know, I still do not use correct crochet terms and I'll say it again, I do NOT plan on learning them anytime soon so if that is something that bothers you, then I'm sorry but my crochet tutorials will forever be unhelpful to you. There are a lot of talented crochet gurus on youtube though and I really encourage you to look them up. 2) I used up about 98% of each yarn pack. I showed the description of the yarn at the beginning of the video so you can do the calculations to get the exact amount. 3) I do not know how long it takes to make this. Everyone crochets at different rates and I did not do this at once so I cannot give you an estimate. 4) The camera that I used is: Canon Powershot ELPH 110 HS 5) The white & pink scarf that I showed is used by the same yarn brand in the colors "White" and "Dusty Rose" w/ the measurements 124 stitches x 10 rows 6) I do not have the pattern for this. Feel free to make one and sell these scarves if you desire.

How many ways do you know how to style a scarf? In this video, I am sharing my favorite ways and the ways that I use often. I only get to wear these types of lightweight scarves here in Southern California (even in the winter - it never gets THAT cold here) so I am super jealous of those that get to wear knitted scarves so often. Which one is your favorite and are there any ways that I should know about? Please let me know in the comments or send me a picture on instagram or twitter!

I know it's spring and silly to be wearing a knitted scarf, but I did not want to wait for another 5 months before uploading this hehe. I love this pattern so much because it really looks like it was knitted instead of being crochet. It is super simple as well so I have the faith that you'll be able to follow along with ease. I also want to mention that I am not a professional. I am just sharing a technique that has been passed on to me. I do not know the correct crochet terms because my momma first taught me how to crochet in Vietnamese. I am also not planning to learn the proper crochet terms any time soon. If this is something that bothers you, then please do not watch this video and refrain from leaving unnecessary comments. I want to keep a positive environment for those who appreciate my tutorials and are still able to gain some knowledge from them, despite my lack of professionalism. What I used: GRAY SCARF: 2 packs of Vanna White Lion Brand Yarn: Silver Heather - To figure out exactly how many yards I used, just google up the brand's info and you should have the calculations Boye Crochet Hook: G/6 - 4.25MM Black Scarf: 1 pack of Carson Simply Soft Yarn: Black Time: 30mins+ Size: 180 stitches x 11 rows I do not have a pattern for this. Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoy the tutorial. xoxo Tracey twitter: http://www.twitter.com/traceynguyen tumblr: http://www.traceynguyen.tumblr.com instagram: http://www.instagram.com/traceybeauty What I'm Wearing: top - Express shorts - Forever 21 nails - Wet n Wild "I need a Refresh-mint" and Sinful Colors White(Thin brush polish) </video> <video> DIY | "Sunshine" Beret (Crochet Tutorial-Traceybeauty) Part 1/2 Description: It's been so long since I've uploaded a new crochet tutorial. I hope that this was worth the wait =) This tutorial was originally supposed to be recorded and uploaded 2 years ago but I kept pushing it back unintentionally (I promise!). This beret holds a lot of meaning to me. My mom had created a very very very similar beret close to this many years ago so she had forgotten how to do it. Instead, I was trying to replicate it on my own as closely as I could and my mom helped me along the way. (Thank you Mom!! ) I call this a "sunshine" beret because I somehow seem rays coming out of the center. Am I the only way who sees it? Hehe. The sun holds a lot of meaning to me too so overall, the concept of this beret felt very special and personal to me, so I am excited to finally share the tutorial with you. Please give me any feedback you may have (constructive criticism is good too!) and I really hope that you like the tutorial. Thank you for your patience if you've been a subscriber and waiting for a new video =) With gratitude, Tracey |Part 2| Watch part 2 here: http://youtu.be/_2R-F4KvPVc | Some things I need to address | 1) I do not have the written pattern for this beret. I do not know how to write one to be honest. If you are having any trouble with the tutorial, please leave me a comment, rewatch, or let me know on twitter or instagram and I'll do my best to reply. 2) I know that it is probably annoying to some of you guys out there to watch my tutorials because of the way I speak and my lack of knowledge on crochet terms. I've mentioned it before but I learned crochet in a different language so I just translate whatever I do in simple terms. I also have no plans on learning the correct crochet vocabulary any time soon. I honestly do not mean that in a bitter way, but I am really just here sharing my passion and hobby with you so I want this to be a positive environment for all of us. I am no position to call myself a crochet guru or teacher so please understand my lack of professionalism. I am really just sharing what I love to do with you guys and I love that so many viewers have been able to crochet for the first time after watching my tutorials although I am so lacking. (By the way, the pictures that you guys send me on twitter & instagram of your creations are always SO AMAZING, it really shocks me when you tell me that it's your first crochet project). I also learn a lot from all the comments that I receive. 3) I would estimate that it takes around 2 hours to make this beret but everyone crochets at a different rate, so the exact timing really depends =) | Materials | Red Heart "With Love" yarn (about 80% of 1 pack): Eggshell Boye 6.0 mm hook | What's On Me | sweater: Forever 21 lips: Rimmel lipliner: Rapture hair color: Garnier Fructis R3 |Find me elsewhere | instagram: @trace.y http://www.instagram.com/trace.y twitter: @traceynguyen http://www.twitter.com/traceynguyen |Tech info| Filmed with Canon eos t3i rebel Edited with Windows Live Movie Maker |Disclaimer| This video is NOT sponsored. </video> <video> DIY: Princess Prom Dress Description: click me for answers! :) Hi everyone, it has been quite a while since I've uploaded a diy sewing tutorial and since prom season is here, I thought that this would be a great opportunity to post this dress tutorial.

I had the camera way too close to me while filming so as I was crocheting, I kept hitting it. I will try to avoid that in my next crochet tutorial ** yarn info: Red Heart (purchased at Walmart) color: Cornmeal amount used: 250 yards crochet hook info: Brand: Boye size: G/6 4.25mm -If you use a bigger sized hook, your stitches will be thicker and chunkier. - If you use a smaller crochet hook, then your stitches will be a lot thinner and smaller than mine. End measurements: 23 stitches x 90 rows length of time it took: I did not work on this continuously so I cannot tell you. Everyone works as a different rate as well so just try it out yourself :) Camera used: Canon powershot SD1400is 14.1 megapixels My sweater is from Forever 21. Nail tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSbtEgj-t6M I do not have the pattern for this. Feel free to share the written patten if you decide to write one. I also hate to address this issue but I know that I will have to sooner or later. Yes, I still have not learned the correct crochet terms. I do not plan on doing so in the future so if it is something that bothers you, please do not watch this video and leave unnessary comments. I want this to be a positive learning environment for novices who are genuinely happy to be exposed to any form of crochet. Remember to share pictures with me!

Please read me :) Hi friends! Here is my first knitting tutorial. This is actually my 3rd time recording the video. I started 2 years ago, lost the footage, re-did it last year, lost the footage, but luckily, the footage from the third time around decided to stay! Hehe. The pattern that I am showing you how to do is one of the most basic ones. It is a common pattern for scarfs and sweaters that are sold in stores. Now, you can make your own :) I apologize in advance if you are not comfortable with the terms that I use. To be honest, I learned how to knit from my mom and grandma and they speak to me in Vietnamese so I never knew the correct vocabulary in English. Please bare with me. With that in my mind, please know that there are many different approaches and styles of knitting. My culture and family may knit differently than the more popular or standard way of knitting. However, I learned to knit this way and it works well for me, so I hope that it will work out well for you, too! Please leave me feedback in the comments area. I love constructive criticism. Let me know if you like these knitting tutorials so I will continue doing them. No worries, I will of course make crochet tutorials too (I much rather prefer crochet over knitting anyways :) ) Needle size: US 11 ( 8 mm ) Yarn used: Vanna's Choice 100% Acrylic in Beige ** The finished scarf was made by using the exact same yarn but in a different color (I am unable to find the name of the color but if I do, I will edit it here later) Scarf size: 8.5" x 60" Approximately 170 yards of yarn used The base had 36 stiches.
