I wish I could get as much completed in a week as you do. I am struggling to get a tissue box cover done it is my 7th one. I am doing a Celtic weave on all of them. They look beautiful when done and I only have the one I am working on and one more to do and I am finished. I so can't wait. Thank you for showing all that you have done. They are all beautiful.

    Getting yarn is so frustrating for me. Gone are the days of going to the store to pick up what I need. Inventory is so poor. Order it, they say. Of course the store makes a much bigger sale and my stash grows while I still never have what I need, store doesn’t have it so I place another order…. Rinse and repeat. Meanwhile my stash is beginning to look better than my store’s inventory. It’s a plot? I think so but the only option is to purchase only what you need at a very high price. Rant over lol
    I absolutely love your creations and the fact that you add your own little touches.
    100% agree with you that one brand of very popular yarn is very hard to work with. Many folks love it (that’s why there is so much of it)and I wish I knew the secret. Maybe a particular brand of hook? It’s so available and has great variety/color options but is so dense that it seems to resist the hook and stitches; such a struggle.

      Best thing to do just make yourself a little ball or sphere and practice. You just kinda have to jump in and there are so many good tutorials already here on UA-cam.

    Mushroom is also a good colour for skin tones but it depends on the other colours you're going to accent it with because I think it pulls slight green tones when it sits with some colours but it is a beautiful colour. I'm going to send you an email and it will be from me Cherylene just incase it goes to spam

    Getting yarn is so frustrating for me. Gone are the days of going to the store to pick up what I need. Inventory is so poor. Order it, they say. Of course the store makes a much bigger sale and my stash grows while I still never have what I need, store doesn’t have it so I place another order…. Rinse and repeat. Meanwhile my stash is beginning to look better than my store’s inventory. It’s a plot? I think so but the only option is to purchase only what you need at a very high price. Rant over lol
    I absolutely love your creations and the fact that you add your own little touches.
    100% agree with you that one brand of very popular yarn is very hard to work with. Many folks love it (that’s why there is so much of it)and I wish I knew the secret. Maybe a particular brand of hook? It’s so available and has great variety/color options but is so dense that it seems to resist the hook and stitches; such a struggle.
    Did I say Love your content? I do. Have a great week.

      That is so true about yarn shopping all the stores I have access to have nothing to choose from! The other yarn you need a metal hook and I’ve heard a lot of people saying that it’s changed and is much smoother to work with. You just need to feel it before purchase so you don’t get the old stuff.

      @@KnottingHookCrochet I tend to use metal hooks, aluminum vintage ones are actually my faves. Had them forever, not ergonomic. Have some inexpensive ergonomic hooks and use them too. Even plastic and sometimes a polished bamboo. I’m not picky about hooks except that I pencil hold and find the Furls style handle hard to manage.
      Thanks for the tips, will checkout the B yarn for a softer texture and maybe invest in a few of the higher quality steel hooks. You are a dear.
