I’m so proud of you for trying worsted! It is different but sometimes a fun challenge. And your monsters are adorable!! Definitely you should do a pattern or tutorial for them. So cute!! ❤❤Btw…this gonna sound strange but voices matter to me, you have a lovely voice to listen to. 😁💗
@@YarnandWhimsyDesigns you would do great with a tutorial. 💗 You’re doing amazing too! I’m proud of you and love your Disney stuff. Several of my friends are huge Disney folks too.
LOVE IT ALL!! My 12 yr old granddaughter wants to make the hippo in a dress but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to print it. I truly appreciate you linking all the patterns you use. I have been crocheting off and on for years but only boring blankets. THIS is sp much more fun to teach her!!
whenever i wanna make some new amigurumi or plushie , lovey i always refer to your videos .. love your reveiws and take on the patterns u have made . thank you for your videos .
OMG you are getting sooooo good!!! Obsessed with little bunny, walrus and of course MIKE WAZOWSKI 😍😍 I will tell you, I have officially bought a little crochet kit from Costco to make 2 Disney princesses so we shall see how that works out. Maybe I will love it and I'll quit my job and crochet emotional support pickles for a living 😅🤣
YES!! Laura, I’m so excited to see how it turns out. Learning is always a challenge, figuring out how to hold the yarn and keep track of the stitches, hang in there!!
I love the cow patern and purchased it. I have a problem with how the legs are attached. I love your reviews and they are so helpful. I would like it if you could give some instructions when the pattern is a little different like how to attached the legs. Keep making videos.
I know!!! Totally worth it, right? Honestly, I think I might do it again with a teddy bear instead of the penguin and see how that turns out. Thanks so much for watching!
The mouse pattern is really wonderful and I've sold one and made 2 more for next market. I bought a few patterns from this seller and looking forward to making them all
I've done baby blue, dark purple, lilac and pink. The pink sold at my last market and the others look great except the dark purple is just too dark a colour to be cute@@YarnandWhimsyDesigns
Thank you so much for sharing these ideas. I was able to purchase the lovely book which I’m excited to use. I’m also going to purchase the angel fish pattern- so cute!!
I watched while wrapping all My pin and pop pins to mail😂 you made so many adorable things!!! The mice, the cow and so many others I loved. But the Mike is soooo cool. Live it. You’re amazing 😻
I too made the penguin in the Dino costume. I think it is super adorable! I have to have that mouse patter, super adorable. I have a bronco pattern that I’ve had no trouble with. I will give you the link when I look it up. Love the care bear, yellow is becoming one of my fave colors but it’s not used often. I personally love the leggy frogs, already sold several and I haven’t done a market yet. I actually made one on the plane today traveling to Rhode Island to see family. Oh, and I also made the wonder crochet frog in a tutu is what I call it, adorable! Awesome makes! Hugs ❤️🦋❤️🦋
Yes! I would love the bronto pattern, whenever you have time. And I admit, I may have been wrong about leggy frogs. I made 4 yesterday, they worked up so easy, and there is something super cute about them! I know I need another primp, I’m counting on him being easier the second time through 😂 have an amazing visit with your family! Thanks so much for watching.
I really appreciate the time you take to do these videos. And I loved, loved, loved the little Mouse! As soon as I saw him I went to Etsy and bought the pattern. Do you remember what yarn you used for yours?
@@YarnandWhimsyDesigns, not made hippo yet but pattern is marked and grey yarn for body and pink for dress is set aside😂. I have to finish my jumbo turtle first. Not sure my old fingers will tackle jumbo yarn again.
For your little panda try adding a black felt circle behind the eyes. I love the little mouse pattern he makes up fast as well, I have bought s few from that designer. I made the penguin and took him to 3 markets i think so far and he’s still here. Everyone comments how cool it is but they dont want to pay the £20 price tag xx
im a big fan of all your crochet videos i love watching them with my mom i was wondering if you have tried crocheting with the etimo tulip hooks they are life changing!
Thank you!!! I only have one Red Tulip Etimo hook and it’s amazing!! I just really struggle with short hooks. I need to figure out a way to make it longer! Or maybe add a handle attachment? Cause it is seriously smooth as silk to use!! Thanks so much for watching, and such a nice comment. ❤️❤️
I really love your videos! I love how you really take time and showing us the items and talkin about each one in detail! I agree one hundred percent on the Hedgehog I have made three of them and I have a fourth one started and everytime I look at it I put it back and say no can't handle that today! LOL and I have a question, I have never used blanket yarn I tried once and it feels like it sticks to my hook LOL please tell me the best and easiest blanket yarn to work with and what hook you feel works the best...❤
Thank you!!! Yes, that hedgehog is quite the endeavor 🤣🤣. He’s so cute though! Ok, I am a huge fan of Furls odyssey hooks, sadly they are super hard to come by these days! They work really well for my large hands. As for blanket yarn, Bernat is so inconsistent! The Bernat Baby Blanket is Sand, has been a dream for me to work with. No stickiness or drag at all! I’m hoping they are working towards all of the colors and styles being that soft!
Hi there. I checked the lot number on my white parfait chunky it's 9208. I haven't worked with that lot yet and I threw away the sleeve on the one I hated, so I don't know what lot that was. After seeing that adorable mouse, I bought 3 patterns from that shop! The elephant, the emojis for bag charms and of course the mouse. Thank you for recommending. ❤
24:45. Frogs; I like the ones with bigger eyes. Long legs are cute, but so are short. The "booty frog" is cute, but I like the big eyed ones more n bc they look more froggy. I LOVED the hedgehog and the butterfly!! They're unique and have a personality! Too bad they were difficult..but maybe you could figure out a way to make.them easier. I think they would sell! I'd buy them!!! 😂❤❤(and I don't usually buy crafts at shows. I like to go to get ideas)
@@YarnandWhimsyDesigns I don't really have any favorite frog patterns. I haven't done any amigurumi yet...I'm just learning how to do it. So far I've learned to make a.magic.circle, crochet in a spiral, read a simple pattern and make a semi successful but not quite round ball! 🤣😲 I was crocheting a granny square blanket for my brand new grandson, watching crocheting videos on UA-cam and stumbled across amigurumi!! Here's the ADD part; I suddenly lost interest in the blanket and am now . obsessed with the idea of making amigurumi dinosaurs for the nursery! 🤣🤣 It's dinosaur themed. I've been watching channels like yours to learn more about amigurumi 😊💕💕
I love it when I see your videos pop up. You make such fun things!! Back to eden boutique here on YT has a FREE gnome tutorial that looks very similar to the one you were making. You should check her out. Also, Primp the penguin sells out for me at every market I bring him to. I only make one at a time bc as you know, we want to crochet all the things lol. 45:39 I love your color choices!! Definitely make him again, I think he’ll do good for you!!
Yes!!! We want to crochet ALL THE THINGS! I have seen her gnome, it’s too cute holding a little pumpkin! I’m definitely going to make primp again. Have you done the shark version? So glad to hear he does well for you! I always worry about the more complicated patterns that will be more expensive!
How do you find time to make all of these??? 😲😲 How much time do you spend on crochet on a daily/weekly basis? It takes me a long time to complete a project. It may be that I have crafting ADHD 🤣. I start things and then get distracted 3:39
I’m a bit weird about needing to finish a project before I start a new one. 🤣. I’m trying to train myself to batch make certain things (like all the turtle pieces for several turtles at the same time!). I crochet every single day for at least a couple hours. And there are days that I crochet a lot! Not gonna lie 😂 It’s very therapeutic for me!
I emailed them, and they did refund me, but weren’t able to send replacements. Hopefully because they are working on making sure the quality is good!! Thanks so much for watching ❤️
I have the same problem you do with the parfait chunky but my problem is Loops and Threads chenille home yarns. They do the exact same thing as your issue and they're impossible to work with.
Great work on everything. I love your monsters! They are great. I like your frog much better than the leggy frogs. I know, Leggy frogs are popular-but not for me. I think crocheting the eyes, for Mike the monster, is a better way to go then felt. Personally, I do not like seeing felt on crochet items. It just takes away from the appearance.
Thank you so much for watching! I just can’t get onboard with felt eyes her. I’m not completely counting it out, but they just don’t look cohesive to me 🤷🏻♀️ The monsters are super relaxing to make! Have an amazing day!
my parfait chunky in my recent order from 3 months ago I feel is low on the quality control. ive resulted in only using it for particular colors at this point because im waisting almost a fourth of a skein due to the shedding or ripping
It’s so frustrating, isn’t it? I don’t know why I haven’t just thrown them out. Definitely let Premier know! They refunded me for the 3 skeins in my last order.
When I got my white parfait chunky I was so happy because I waited so long since they were out of stock for forever. And it was HORRIBLE! So disappointed. I saw another UA-cam channel say something similar. It has to be the entire cycle (mine is lot 285) but the same issue, we all got cruddy quality. They should send everyone who got some a coupon or something. I may just go with Honey Bunny from Hobbi from now on if this is what they’re putting out. 🤷♀️
I think maybe some of the crochet channels you are learning from may be misinforming you. The rie count and stitch count should never be altered in a pattern. I am very familiar with the patterns from the designer of the penguin. Her patterns are meticulous. Tension in a project should be consistent throughout. Being new to crochet and going directly to animuguri may be the issue because there is no swatch guage. May I suggest practicing rows of stitches in a blanket to get your tension consistent. I have been crocheting for 50 years and stsrted at 5. The quickest way to get those projects perfect is practicing the same stitch over and over, then moving on to the next stitch until you build your knowledge.
Thank you! That really good advice. I’ve been making cowl for my mom, and really enjoying the process. Do you have a creator/teacher you recommend? I’ve been using Bag O Day tutorials!
Respectfully, the charm of handmade items is in the tiny inconsistencies. They aren’t mass market, factory made plushies. They are made with love in each stitch. I say, do what you love and enjoy. I for one, am learning crochet through amigarumi because it makes me happy. I think your creations are great, Karen. I’m enjoying your videos.❤
I emailed them and they refunded me! But really, I want a good batch of white parfait chunky more than I wanted the money! Hoping they resolve to soon. Thanks so much for reaching out!!
Yeah, same. I just want my yarn to play with. Thankfully they replaced my XL. Though, I live literally 2 hours from where the stuff ships so waiting 2 weeks sometimes for it to ship is ARRGGGGG! lol but the stuff is so nice to work with ... when the quality is on point. @@YarnandWhimsyDesigns
I love that penguin. So cute. The horse is super cute too. They all look great.
Thank you for showing your makes, the pattern names, and where we can find the patterns. Your monsters are so cute. 😊

What a cute wittle panda!!
You are a little crochet master now!! It's amazing!!
Yeah that wing pattern got me too. I used a diff pattern for the wings.never did give antenna to it. All done with the butterfly

Thank you so much for saying that! I’m continually overwhelmed by how kind everyone is I crochet land! ❤️ I appreciate you!
The mouse pattern is really wonderful and I've sold one and made 2 more for next market. I bought a few patterns from this seller and looking forward to making them all
Right? The noise is so cute. I’m trying to decide what other colors to use to make more. Are you doing traditional grey? Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much Lisa!!! Fingers crossed 😂
Everything is so cute.
I can’t wait to watch more.
I seem to like the round-ish patterns. Like the mouse 🐭 keep itnip
Isn’t the mouse the cutest? Thanks so much for watching!
The orange monster is absolutely adorable. I’d love a pattern
i love the gnome you came up with would love to get the pattern sometime if you make one.
Thank you so much for sharing these ideas. I was able to purchase the lovely book which I’m excited to use. I’m also going to purchase the angel fish pattern- so cute!!
You will LOVE the fish pattern!
Serenity would freak out for one of those axolotls!!! Love them so much . The chubby frog is adorable. That hippo and walrus are FABULOUS 🤩🤩🤩!!!
I have to be honest, I had no idea what an Axolotl was before I started crocheting 🤷🏻♀️
@@YarnandWhimsyDesigns how much would it be to get one for serenity
Message me colors she would like and we will talk!
Wow..beautiful plushies....love the cow and the flower frog..gotta try those patterns ❤❤

You made a carebear!!!! Love the squid!!!!! Meg the Dino onesie penguin!!! It’s annoying like me! Lol so many great creations!!!!!
You make a wonderful muse!!
I
Love the hedge hogs from rose and Lily. Great seller for
Me. Make another you’ll
Get the hang of it.
You’re probably right. I’m going to add it to my make list this week!
The top hair takes about 45 to 60 minutes to do but it’s relaxing once you get the hang of it. They come out super duper cute!
With the panda you can put black makeup around his eyes. That’s how my snowman pattern suggested for rosy pink cheeks and he turned it adorable.
Ohh, that’s a great idea!! I might give it a try, thanks!!
Wow!! You made so many this month. I love gnomes!! I didn’t know you were making pumpkins too 😮. The platypus is my favorite!! - mari
I didn’t think I loved gnomes, but they are growing on me!
Great video. Thank you so much. I really enjoyed seeing all your work. Love to see a tutorial by you.
Thank you so much!!! I’m working on a tutorial as soon as I get a good filming set up for it!

I’m so impressed by you lol Everything looks amazing.
Aww, thank you!! That means a lot.
So, I was commenting on the frogs that you made! 🤣🤣🐸🐸 I liked both kinds, but the leggy one with big eyes looks more "froggy" to me
Love the monsters!
