sew sweet samuel
Приєднався 16 лип 2020
Grab yourself a cuppa or a glass of something cold, pick up your latest project and join me as I talk about what I am knitting, sewing, reading and watching this week. I love to knit socks and jumpers for myself and my family. I love to sew small cuddly toys. Join me as I embark on my EPP and crochet journey.
My videos will often feature my two co stars - Milo the crazy cockapoo puppy and the name sake behind this channel my precious son Samuel.
I'm a Mum, a teacher and an avid crafter. I’m like a magpie I see a new idea and I want to try it.
I love all crafts, sewing, knitting, embroidery and dress making to name just a few.
I live in Southend on sea in Essex England.

Coolcrafting haul oh my goodness is there anything left in the shop!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOURS! Thank you Lindsey for keeping me company! I thoroughly enjoy watching what you have made, and to hear of the makes you want to do on your 'to do' list! I have such a loooonnng list of 'want do dos' for this year and at the top is to learn how to knit socks! I have watched your videos and others but still cant get the hang of them! but I am determined! I haven't even seen or felt a handmade sock! Also I too am a lover of 'coolcrafting' I visited last year for the first time and left my dear husband in a nearby cafe for nearly 2 hours! Enjoy whatever you have on your needles or sewing, keep smiling! see you soon xxx
Thank you so much xx Is there anyone near by that can help you with knitting socks? Once you try hand made socks you’ll love them. I’ll happily knit you a pair if you like? Xxx
Keep doing your videos, I'm like you I wouldn't have dreamt of making a bat but it was adorable definitely going to make one 😊
Thank you xx yes the bat is so cute 🥰
Hi Lindsay I really enjoy your videos. Sorry to hear that your Mum has been ill, I hope she recovers soon. Please keep doing your videos when you can, I really enjoy seeing all your makes. You have inspired to get back into my cross stitching. Good idea to keep a record of your progress. I have a crochet project diary to keep track of my makes but like yourself I will record all my crafts, I knit crochet and now cross stitch too. Your secret santa gift is very you , lovely . I think Suzie did the Grimblewood gnomes last year too. They're quite cute. Gorgeous socks yarns, I'm fairly new to knitting socks I just do plain socks at the moment. Try not to worry about losing some subscribers I'm sure more will subscribe soon. Take care look forwards to seeing you gain soon xx
Thank you so much, I started my gnome yesterday at my mums but I didn’t have enough to stitch markers so I couldn’t carry on! Xxx

Sorry to hear your Mum is poorly. ❤ As long as you enjoy making videos then it’s worth continuing. Just don’t put too much pressure on yourself. I really enjoying seeing what you’ve made, and lots of others do too ❤Take care xx

Don’t ever feel guilty when you can’t do regular videos, I will wait and watch whenever you can manage to do them. I hope your Mum gets better soon. X
Thank you so much, I enjoy doing the videos it is just finding the time, I just need to set aside an hour a week to do it Thank you for your kind words xx
Great to see you Lindsey awww big hugs to your mum hope she feels better soon ❤💐 it depends on the yarn for me on socks usually do a plain sock but variegated yarn. Love what you make .Have a lovely week happy crafting xx
Thank you so much it’s so hard seeing Mum so poorly. Yes I think your right variegated yarn should be plain socks xx
Lovely to see you, whatever you can manage is always welcome x
Thank you so much xx
Have you seen Ali little drops of wonderful just feel festive shawl in greenlambkin yarn advent? OMG it is absolutely STUNNING! I said Suzanne’s yarn looked like a fade to me!! I am so envious of that shawl…. That advent is completely and utterly perfect!
Thank you so much for watching my FT and mentioning it on your lovely Vlogmas! I hope you feel better soon and am moving onto your next one :)
That Ricorumi looks fun Lindsey, I hope that you and Samuel had a nice meal out.
Love the memory tablecloth idea! Glad you are having fun with family! Merry Christmas!!!❤❤😊
Thank you I need to get on with stitching it today! Xx
I love your idea of a memory cloth for the table for Christmas lunch. Wishing you and your family a fabulous Christmas. Xx
Thank you! You too! Xx
Hi Lindsey your hot water bottle looks lovely xx
Thank you so much, it’s nearly finished I’ll be doing another one I love it xx xx
Hi Lindsey love how your cross stitch is looking xx
I feel for you with the head pain just going through it myself.Love the cross stitch.Always a busy time family life.Sending you and your loved ones a happy Christmas.xxxxx🐝🐝🐝
Goat to see you are better Lynsey, your nails are lovely. The pins you have are t pins and used for blocking.
Your cross stitch looks so nice Lindsey. I’ve just seen I missed your day 17 video.
They are NOT mistakes in your wrap … they are design elements x Embrace them as part of your unique and individual work xx
lol that’s what I always say, they are design features and it makes it unique and no one is going to be examining it that closely!! I’m enjoying the process and that’s all that matters. Xx 😘
❤😊
Hi Lindsey pleased your feeling better xx they are blocking pins x
Thank you Julie xx
Hi Lindsey sorry your not feeling well x I love your stocking lucky little boy xx
The pins are T pins for blocking
Thank you so much xx
They are T pins .. used for blocking out knitting .. usually with a foam blocking mat x
Oh thank you so much xx
I haven't done the Christmas rules yet but I have done the Hive and Autumn rules and they are lovely. Love your nails.
Oh I like the autumn rules I’ll have to get that for next year as well xx
Another great video. Could those pins be blocking pins?
Thank you so much, ☺️ yes I think they are xx I wonder why one small one and 5 larger ones? Xx
Hi Lindsay there blocking pins you get them with foam blocking boards😊. Your nails are lovely love the colours of your yarn there gorgeous x
Oh thank you for that. I don’t have any foam blocking boards but we do have some foamy tiles that we use in the caravan so they would work the same I usually just use pins if I ever block things which is rare to never 🤣🤣. Thank you I haven’t had my nails done for a while so it was a nice treat today, yes the yarns are coming together nicely I need to have a good period of time to knit through them now xx
Sorry to hear that you are in pain Lynsey. Thank you for showing me your bears. I will appreciate a heads up about them.
That is a great stocking! Excellent work! I hope you feel better soon. Take a little break and take care of yourself, have a treat. John
Hi Lindsey I’m so sorry but I’m not sure of the name of the yarn but if I’m not mistaken I think it’s a Christmas one. I’m so sorry you’re feeling unwell, that’s sucks at this time of year. Get some sleep, that’s sucks always seem to help me. Xxxx
Hope you feel much better very soon. Happy stitching 😊❤
Hi Lindsey wow that’s lots of socks xx
All the very best to your brother xx
The cakes look amazing x what a lovely idea to Raffle one off 😊I’m so sorry I didn’t realise your brother has been unwell x
Hi Lindsey the jumper looks lovelyxx
Thank you so much xx
I managed to sit very still to listen to you! 😂 Your quilted stocking is absolutely beautiful and what an amazing collection of hand knitted socks! I haven’t knitted many socks this year - about six pairs, I think.
Well done I’m glad you didn’t wriggle at all. Well done on the socks xx
Your stocking is wonderful!
Thank you so much that’s so kind of you xx
It’s the Persian tiles by Janie crow, and yes I’ve got the yarn to make it. I’ll talk to you about a swap, I was thinking maybe do something different. Maybe a toy/ mouse swap.
Oh I like the sound of that xx
I will look forward to seeing your small panda Lindsey. I would consider an advent swap if I think I could fill one. I’ve had to have a yarn calendar with year because I can’t never find minis. I think I understand the pattern, I suppose all will become clear as I get to each stage. I’ve only ever made human socks with fish kiss heel, or whatever it’s called. Gorgeous socks.
Beautiful socks. I do the same thing each year.
It was so nice to see them all together and remember knitting them xx
I am so in love with Paula. Does Mrs D sell a Paula bear after advent Lindsey? I want a panda bear. I have a Blythe doll coming after Christmas or new year, and she loves pandas I will look forward to seeing your socks. What is the name of the sock pattern you recommend please?
She makes smaller bears throughout the year she has made smaller panda ones before now. I’ll write out my sock pattern for you I’m just having my hair done at the moment. I have a small panda that Paula made I’ll show you her in a video xx
