Also! My theory about this blanket is that it is the intricacy and level of detail that makes it hard. That also makes it gorgeous and a work of art and highly satisfying to complete, but its definitely something that takes a LOT of brain power. Every time I finish a part I feel like I need to take deep breaths for a while lol. But, yeah its not that its the pattern's fault or the creator's fault, its just that its a lot of details!
Ha! I am literally crocheting the cream v-stitches on one of the emerald base panels right as Im watching you do the same thing 🤣 Hope you guy are feeling better!
I’m so sorry you were/are sick!! And hope you’re feeling much better this weekend. Being sick while caring for a toddler is definitely challenging so I’m very glad you were able to rest and do a little crafting in the midst of the chaos. ❤❤ sending all the love your way!
Sleep is often the hardest part about traveling with a toddler or baby. And such a big time change too! Poor Ava! I hope you're able to get everything back on an even keel schedule wise this week. I hope all the packing and moving prep goes well these next couple of weeks. You're almost over the worst of it! Hang in there! Getting everything moved is usually the most stressful part for me. Once it's all in the new place there is still all the sorting and organizing to do, but I feel much less 🤯 and there isn't that strict "moving day" deadline looming. I hope you're able to squeeze in some little breathing room breaks with tea/knitting/books/whatever helps your brain shut off for a few minutes! ❤️❤️❤️
Aw thank you so much for all the encouragement! 🥰I’m definitely trying to find time to relax during the chaos and yes like you said, once we’ve actually moved it won’t be as stressful
Ava’s sweater is so cute! It reminds of the Taylor Swifts Lover aesthetic with all the pastels!
Omg, are you moving to New York, only reason why I say New York is because it’s a three hour difference. I’m just taking a wild guess at where you’re moving. Lol 😩 Arizona will miss you and Ava
Hooray!! Fantastic job on your blanket. It looks beautiful and so cozy! I hope you all had a safe and fun trip. I am so enjoying your vlogtober vlogs. I pretty much drop everything (as much as I can with a baby and a toddler 🤭) to watch them as soon as I see you have posted a new one.
I loved hearing all about the books, Audrey! I think we have pretty similar reading tastes so I am going to see if I can find a Courtney Walsh book to try. If you like older/vintage style books, D. E. Stevenson and Betty Neels are two authors I have been really enjoying recently. Also, if you like cozy golden age murder mysteries and haven't read and of the Miss Silver series by Patricia Wentworth I HIGHLY recommend them!! They are such wholesome, cozy stories and Miss Silver, the amateur sleuth, is always knitting which is such fun to read about. Your blanket is turning out beautifully! ❤❤
I agree, I don't like swearing in books, I find if there's swearing in the first chapter it carries through the whole book. Don't mind the odd bit of steam here and there but it never needs to be a huge part of any story!. Currently on the second last book of the Throne of Glass series and thankful it has minimal steam. But absolutely no idea what to read next.
The blanket looks great! You will never notice the imperfections.
I’m with you on the no steam and minimal swearing in books. So unnecessary! I agree it is lazy. I always think “people really talk like this? F bombs constantly?” because my circle of family and friends do not. But I guess people do. Anyway I’ve been having a hard time getting into books lately and I am a hard core reader. I don’t like romance but I’m reading The One with the Kiss Cam by Cindy Steel, supposed to be steam free and so far it is.
Yes definitely! It’s so unnecessary and makes the book not as good (in my opinion haha). You’ll have to let me know how the book ends up being!
Hi why don’t you have you book tube channel and this channel together maybe it will be easier for you
That’s a great idea!
I like your blanket. I'm knitting a pair of socks and crocheting a vest. And I'm reading 📚 the 4th book of the love comes softly series by Janette Oke.
Ohh I’ve always wanted to read those but haven’t! I grew up being obsessed with the first two movies 😅
That blanket is turning out so pretty! 📚 I edited my comment to add I’ve been reading “Saving Faith.” I haven’t read in so long that I had no idea what to look for or what to get, so I just picked some books up at the Goodwill and I’m hoping they’re good.
Aw thank you! I love finding books at goodwill! I hope the books you got turn out to be good! You’ll have to let me know 🤗
That blanket is gorgeous!!! Looking forward to seeing that finished. I agree to put the top in a time out for a bit and to come back to it when you feel better about it otherwise it's not enjoyable x
Thank you so much!! And yes I agree with the sweater. I’m glad I’ve put it down for now
I’m so enjoying your vlogs! I completely forgot about vlogtober being a thing until I saw your videos. I’m definitely looking forward to whatever vlogs you are able to make this month! Hang in there with the moving upheaval/stress! It’s so hard, but almost always so worth it once you’re on the other side ❤❤ I’d also love to know what you are reading these days if you wanted to share in one of you vlogs.
As thank you so much for watching!! I can’t wait to be on the other side like you said!! 🥳🥳I talk about books in today’s video I’m filming!🤗
I am so happy fall is here. October is my favorite month!!! I am currently knitting a pair of socks in orange and purple for Halloween. I use a size 1 needle, ether 9 inch circular or dpns to do my socks. Sounds like your yarn was a really large fingering.
Yes I think it was definitely closer to a dk weight!! Wish I realized that sooner 😅your socks sounds so fun!
Socks beautiful!!!! Where did you get that pink row counter?
Thank you!! I think I got it at Michaels!! It’s super helpful
I'm in the mood for fall making. I have been making a few knitted hats and now trying my hand at a fun crocheted ribbed beanie. I that cotton yarn. I bought that same color at the dollar store with hopes of making a tee too. Can't wait to see when you start yours.
I just found your channel and subscribed. I would love to buy the pink shopie scarf from you!!! Please!!! I cant knit and want on so much!!! I'll pay for everything. Please!!!. Hoping. Thanks. I'll love it so much. Jerrie.
Hi! Thanks so much for subscribing and wanting to purchase the scarf! It is posted on my Etsy shop. The link is in the video description! 🤗
I just bought the yarn for the Mexican blanket. It says to use US 15 needles. So are you using circular needles? What size did you get?
Oh how fun!! It’s such a fun project to work on. I am using 10mm circular needles! I’m not sure what cable length I got but I feel like it’s the 40 in length one!
🧶🧶🧶
Getting rid of 2 boxes is great! It is so hard for me to part with even just one skein!
Yes😩it was so hard and if we weren’t moving I would definitely be hanging on to it!
Hello are you trying to make the star blanket
Hi! I have not made that blanket but it does look like a fun project!
@@AudreysCraftingCorner it is I love watching people make them and it is a good size for you daughter Ava I bet you she would love it
🧶☺
🧶🧶🧶❤
🧶🤣🤣🤣….a job well done!!
My Dollar tree still stocks the Just Cotton. If you enjoy it, Premier home cotton is the same makeup of fibers and has even more colors.
I never knew vacuum sealing could damage yarn. My mom has always vacuum sealed all the crocheted blankets my grandma and aunt made. They are acrylic, though, and I don’t think it damages acrylic only natural fibers. Do you have any of the travel tote bags? I’ve started using those instead of the plastic tote containers because I can get more to fit. I have some that you can carry as a backpack and regular ones with just the handles. I use them for markets too and I can fit a lot more plushies in them without having to smash them like when I used totes.
That’s great to hear there weren’t any issues with vacuum sealing!! I just want to do my blanket yarn so I bet it will be perfectly fine to do that!🤗I have a couple of those travel tote bags and they’re awesome!! The backpack ones sounds great tho.. 👀might have to get a couple!
Wow so much yarn, I love it, have you ever considered caking your yarn? I’ve actually vacuumed sealed my yarn for a good month, 🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶 I live in Tucson, Arizona, but I will be traveling up to Prescott soon. If you happen not to sell any of your yarn I will consider buying it off you I crochet during the winters for children that don’t have blankets or beanies or gloves or socks, and donate them to families. Anything will help
I have caked up some smaller yarn and that is definitely the way to go especially for storage! That’s good to hear you didn’t have any issues with vacuum sealing! And I appreciate that! I did actually end up donating the yarn after all!
PS I put the wool in good paper bags so it didn’t sweat.
In the last three years I have moved from Pa to Sc and from Sc back to Pa 🤦🏻♀️ so I have packed up my yarn stash. I use Rubbermaid totes and zip lock bags and paper bags placing the yarn in bags in the container. I also used natural oil soaps like lavender oil…SC is buggy and I was worried about moths. I also used a lot of those “dry packets” (the little white ones with beads) due to humidity. Sc is very humid. With all of this said I am very glad I kept my yarn and it all came out perfect no issues ❤
Those are great tips and I’m so glad you didn’t have any issues with your yarn!
oh gosh, big moves can be so stressful. will be so nice to be close to your sister though.
Thank you for sharing so honestly, Audrey! I'm glad you are taking some time for yourself, to slow down and rejuvenate. Will you be posting any of your crocheted plushies? I would love to buy one!
You are so sweet thank you! I’m glad to be slowing down too despite the busy upcoming move!🤗I did actually post a few to my Etsy! The shop is in my description :)
Hi Audrey!! I was so glad to see this video pop up in my feed. I've been thinking about and praying for you a good bit these last couple of weeks. I had a suspicion a move was happening and goodness me... Moving can be so incredibly stressful!! Especially a cross country move! I was hoping you might be coming to the KY area, but a place with lots of sand sounds pretty fun too 😁 I'm really glad you were able to decide to slow down on the markets. Husbands are so amazing for confirming what we didn't know we wanted. 🤭I'll ask my husband stuff like that all the time. I love your blanket project and the little sweater for Ava is adorable! It's making me want to knit up a couple simple raglan sweaters in 100% acrylic for my toddler to have as fun play sweaters. I'm so excited for you in this next stage of life. Hang in there while everything is crazy and up in the air!! I know how tough that can be. And much as I would love to see a new video from you every week on just about any topic (yarn closet overhaul, more knitting project, yarn destash, moving prep vlogs, day in the life vlogs, etc.) don't feel too pressured to keep making content! We'll all still be here when life calms down again. ❤❤
You are sooo sweet!! Thank you for taking the time to leave such a meaningful comment. I know you are in a beautifully busy season of life as well so this means a lot! And yes! Making acrylic/“cheap” sweaters is so fun! They’re easy and fun to make but also I don’t feel so bad if they get beat up or dirty ☺️
Hi, I’m a new viewer. I absolutely love your southwestern blanket that you are making. I live in New Mexico. Might have to check that pattern out. Good luck with your move to a sandy location. I remember moving from South Carolina to NM with a one year old, 2 cats, a lizard and a bird. It was quite an adventure but memories that I treasure. Good luck!
Yes!! Those are the best adventures and best memories 🤗I highly recommend the pattern!! It’s such a fun project to work on
I watched your very first podcast and everyone since. Not sure we would cope with that kind of heat in Uk ! Good luck with your move and God bless you xxx
Oh my goodness!! Thank you for watching and sticking with me. 🥹🩷
Glad to hear the good news about the move. Keep God first and everything will work out.
I’m so excited for you guys but also kind of jealous, lol! I’ve never been to that state and I’d love to go…hopefully, someday. The break from 110’s really does make a huge difference! I’ve been opening up our doors to let the fresh air in. We need to get together again soon! I have a pop up market this Saturday and then nothing for a couple of weeks. Maybe we can try for something then. That blanket is going to be so pretty and I love the yarn Ava chose! 💜
Yes definitely!! I’d love to get together. It’s been so nice in the mornings! I’m glad we finally made it to the other side 😅good luck on your pop up!!
since I’ve been following you, you’ve been such an amazing mama and being able to handle all your stress especially when it comes to marketing. You did such an amazing job ups and downs, but you never let it get to you, I could see it as a YouTub follower. you will most definitely will be missed in Arizona, but not missing the heat lol, if I take a guess, I’d say you’re either moving to Florida i’ve always wanted to learn how to knit I heard it’s very meditating and very therapeutical. I cannot wait to see other knitting projects that come along. I feel like you’re inspiring me to put down my crochet hook and start knitting. 😊 I can’t wait to follow you guys on your new journey your new home and your new state. **just remember God is good and always have faith**
You are so sweet to leave such a kind comment! I definitely think you should try knitting!! It’s really fun and meditative. It’s just a different feel than crocheting although both are just so fun.
When I crocheted my daughter her wedding dress I knew that if I worked on it too much at a time I would put it down for a few days and wouldn't finish it. I worked out that if I did a smaller amount a day I would be able to finish it in plenty of time. I had to stop myself from doing more rows, I was enjoying it so much, but I knew that I had to pace myself properly or I would start looking for excuses not to do it. I did finish it, had plenty of time to adjust it a little and to add a few embellishments and proudly saw her walking down the aisle in it.
Oh my goodness!! That’s amazing you made her her wedding dress 🥹I know she cherished that and will always cherish it. That’s such a special thing to do!
I just came to say that you have truly inspired me to stitch with crocheting and vending at markets. My daughter is 18 months now and my son will be here any day now, I definitely don’t have as much time to crochet as I used to and was thinking of just not doing markers anymore. But you have inspired me to keep going and I found a way to balance both the mom life and the crochet life. Also I don’t knit or know anything about knitting but I would still watch your knitting podcast ❤
Oh my goodness yay! I’m so glad you have been able to find a balance and find the time to do markets! Congrats on your baby! I’m glad you have enjoyed my videos 🤗
cat is cute... i think $25-30 is a good price
Audrey! I was so excited to see you pick the knitting needles back up again, WTG on the sweater! Very beautiful!!
Aw thank you!!🤗
🐢 Great video! I get nervous too for markets, but overall I have a good time, so I keep doing them. 🙂
🐢
To avoid gathered join-as-you-go finish on your bag you'll have to steam it with your iron. Don't press, just steam it and block it with your hands. Use the same method to block your knitted hats, it will get more professional appearance. Love your vlogs, binge watching it!
Great tips thanks for sharing!! And thanks for watching my videos 🤗🤗
I’ve been anxious like that my whole life. I also do crochet and markets and have a 3 year old. It’s gotten worse since I’ve had her lol
