![How to store yarn and organize your stash [+mistakes to avoid]](/img/tr.png)
I'm an addict in recovery and I started crocheting when I was in rehab and I have been obsessed ever since! I just got my 6 months clean today ❤️ I destroyed my entire life and I had nothing left. Trying to rebuild it without my crutch, drugs, was incredibly difficult and crocheting was honestly my little escape. It helped me feel useful and productive when I could make things for my few friends/family I had left. I feel that in a way crocheting things for other people really helped them believe in me again, that if I put that much work into something for THEM that I really cared and I was in fact a better person. Mikey you are one of my favorite people ever. I love you so much. YOU make me happy!!
WhyClaireY Great job on your 6 months sober!!! My husband is a recovering addict as well & I know how hard it is as I've seen his struggles as well as the struggles I've had as someone who is in love with an addict. I would like to ask your permission to have you in my prayers that you can have the daily strength to stay sober, as I know it truly is a daily struggle. Moving to crochet will give you something much better to focus your mind on so you aren't in your thoughts, which is the time most addicts have issues with. And maybe you will gain a new addiction for yarn lol! I have a major addiction for yarn & my husband makes fun of me for it. But, it's definitely something much better to be addicted to! Good luck & blessings on your journey!
Diana May thank you very much! I would very much appreciate your thoughts and prayers! God has moved mountains for me! I'm totally addicted to buying yarn lol God bless you and your husband!!!!
WhyClaireY congratulations on your sobriety and your new found love of crochet.
That is awesome, keep going--one day at a time and one stitch at a time! CONGRATULATIONS!
WhyClaireY, congratulations on your six months of sobriety. I'm not an addict but I was a codependent person to my significant other. During a therapy session with him one day, his therapist called me that. Well, I was highly offended stating I don't depend on him for anything. Then he explained that codependency meant I was living his addiction. That was it for me. It took a while, but I finally removed him from my life because he was becoming very violent with me. I'm sorry to say he died from his addiction, but the scars I was left with I still carry today. I have recently picked back up my love to crochet and the healing process for me has been tremendous. I do it every minute of the day I get a chance to. All I'm saying is YOU GOT THIS GIRL!!!! Let it help you in your healing. Be proud. You ARE deserving, and giving to others is a wonderful thing. Good luck to you in your new journey. Carry a crochet hook everywhere you go. Get a key chain. Make a necklace. YOU GOT THIS GIRL!!!
"My yarn is my happiness." YES YES YES! I do the same thing, sort by brand. Only I'm a little bit OCD about it & sort by color in that brand as well. LOL! Much love to you, Mikey & HUGE thanks for all you do! ♡♡♡♡
I'm autistic and crochet is one of the ways i cope with the anxiety that sometimes accompanies autism. The behavior is actually referred to as "stimming" which is shorthand for self-stimulatory behavior. It's basically one of the ways i self-soothe when i get anxious. It's also a tool i use to pull myself out of an autistic meltdown. Meltdowns happen to autistic people when we get overwhelmed by the world around us. ... Crochet is a socially acceptable way to burn off that anxiety and to seperate ourselves temporarily from a situation that is overwhelming to us ... It works as a stim because once you learn a new stitch, it becomes muscle memory with no thinking required.
I also love the play of colors in the projects i work on.
You found a way to be happy that does not hurt anyone! Not only that, but you found a way to make others happy too!
YES - my yarn makes me happy! It has taken me a few years, though, to stop being such a perfectionist that I can't give my work away....
You totally get it Mikey - there's a sense of sheer joy and peacefulness when I'm organizing and reorganizing my yarn - i love the textures and the colors and it IS what makes me happy too!
I love your giggle!
I am envious of your collection of fabulous yarn choices. One day I hope to have a craft room for such things.
I just want to say thank you. Your videos have taught me so much, and have given me the confidence to try projects I thought I could never do.
So many "yarn" ball jokes....love it 👏😄
If someone tells you that you have too much yarn, you need to think about that friendship! You can NEVER have "Too much yarn"!!! Yarn is my happiness and my escape from mundane life!
So it's 2017 , in2014 I was gravely ill I could barely go to the bathroom let alone do any craft project. I always wanted to learn to crochet , my sister would never help me and I hated the colours she would use but I admired her ability. So I was at deaths door and I needed to distract myself and I found you, so for the first yr even just making a tiny square made me happy and then in 2015 I found out I was to become a grandmother for the first time, so I found you again and I have made blankets and have even moved on to crochet toys, I just found out I'll be a nanna again by October and I'll be working on special gifts for my grandchild.
Thank you so much mikey . Xoxox
Bless your heart...it's wonderful when we can make such beautiful gifts for others. Congratulations on the new edition!
Yarn is my happiness to. I thought I was the only one that organizes by brand and not by color. Besides when brands are mixed matched you may not get the same texture. I learned in the beginning of learning to crochet. Thanks for sharing this video
Dear Mikey you are an inspiration to all. I started crocheting as a kid and thought I knew how but you have taught me a lot since I found you on UA-cam. I have been teaching my granddaughter to crochet and one of the first things I told her to remember was if you want to do a new stitch find Mikey on UA-cam and he will show you the right way to do it. Thank you for all your teachings, you do it in a way that doesn't make a person feel stupid.
Oh my god, this is heaven!!!
I will show my husband this video so that he will stop complaining about my yarn. He always says this is what the makers of star trek thought of, when they mad the tripples :-)
crochet and knitting is my life and I am always happy to see, I am not alone!
Sorry for poor english

Mikey, thank you. I have to go this morning to take care of my sister's yarn collection and now I know why she had so much. It brought her a ton of happiness. I have several organizations I am sharing it with, along with family members and friends, and yes I am keeping some for myself. Ginger was an avid crochet artist just like yourself. I was so blessed to have her in my life for the past few years, her little addiction of happiness has become mine. Thank you and God bless you.
Bless you,,, NEVER too much yarn, fabric or sewing machines and needles or hooks... Retired/70yrs, and having a blast...A day without handwork or being creative is like a day without sunshine!!! HNY
Crochet is an amazing way to center yourself, clear your mind, to put all your love into it.
Mikey do whatever makes you HAPPY. Life is too short.
Amen
Mikey, my name is Sandy and I deal with bi-polar type 1 and rapid cycle into type 2. I use crochet as a way to help with the constant mind noise... I deal with negative thoughts all day every day. Learning a new stitch is my way to help with those "voices" that bombard me. I have to count my stitches and that helps me to focus. Watching your videos on the different styles of crocheting has calmed my mind on many occasions and for that I want to say thank you. I would love to have the yarn you have in this video but I would not have the room... BUT I LOVE YOUR BALLS... LOL... anyway thank you for sharing your gift as a teacher and a fellow crocheter... love ya
Sandy Giles I’m bipolar mixed and I have many creative outlets that help.
I’m bipolar rapid cycling from 1 to 2 as well. I also crochet every minute of the day that I can. I can relate to you so much!! Keep hooking girl!!
💚😊💚😊
You are a joy. I love your videos and ideas. Thank you for inviting me into your yarn Nirvana. A tour of such a well stocked haven was a real treat.
Mikey, you just radiate joy. I am so happy I found your channel.
I love you Mikey I am so glad I found you on UA-cam you reignited my passion for crocheting. I learnt to crochet about 30 odd years ago and then went back to knitting ( I have been knitting for about 50 years) and then I met you
I love your passion for crocheting and you have the best sense of humour and you always make me smile. I completely understand how much joy you get from creating something from a simple hook and a ball of yarn and when things aren't going right sometimes, you always have your crocheting to turn to and you on UA-cam
I always work with acrylic yarns because our wool industry isn't as caring towards the sheep and I have seen some terrible footage of cruelty and inhumanity towards these wonderful animals that give us so much that I am unable in good conscience to support and buy wool
I look forward to all your videos Thank you for being there and being you Love and best wishes always x x
MISSA FERRES
Oh my goodness, you have said almost everything I wanted to! I want to thank you Mikey for being in the Crochet World! Your enthusiasm inspires people (well it does me), your humour makes you human, and your passion shows your creativity! I have learnt from you and for this I am grateful. 🎀🌷🎀🌷🎀
💟🐑
🎼🎵MIKEY🎵🎼 ITS August 2018
"5 Years & 2 Days Later" Pretty Please show your fans your Yarn Collection today. 🙃☺️😊
I love when said ..."my yarn is my happiness!!!" I feel the same way!!!
I am an avid crocheter and cross stitcher. It helps me relieve stress, helps me regroup, and allows me to breathe and feel comfortable in myself. The saying "I crochet/stitch so that I don't kill people" definitely rings true with me! Mikey, your stash is EPIC!! I loved this video! Happy hooking, and TFS! 💗
I totally agree! I never realized how much crochet helps me focus, clear my mind, and works so well for my mental health issue when I had to go 5 days without it. I got upset over something, and ended up crying for 30 minutes. I continually felt lost, confused, upset, unsure of myself. My boyfriend saw the state I was in, and told me that he will make sure if we stay overnight at someones home, to make sure that I don't go ANYWHERE without my crochet. I will now make sure I have a WIP bag just for overnight visits. Thanks so much for sharing, and for just being amazing! Happy crocheting everyone!
Usually on sale. I've come a long way through crochet. Making people happy with the little gifts I give them makes me feel fantastic. I love you Micky.
Mikey, I love your giggle. Your giggle with all of your balls reminds me of the first time my kids heard AC/DC Big Balls. I love it. I lost mine a year ago, my collection... I am currently rebuilding my collection from ground zero. Matter of fact, last year's Spring Crochet along was very emotional for me. I had just learned what happened and that was my first purchase. It was very hard for me. Thank you for ALWAYS brightening my day! Keep being you!!
As soon as you said healing in your video it hit me. I started crocheting again as a way to heal. I lost my dad last year just as the pandemic clamped everything down. I turned to crocheting again because I needed something to focus on and a way to give back to others. My plan is to make blankets and give them away in honor and memory of my father. Thank you Mikey for all you have taught us and shared with us. It is much appreciated. You have inspired me so much and I am grateful.
I fell and broke my spine/neck so I had to find something to do, due to not being able to work I seen a video & fell in love with crocheting it gives me peace when I'm in a lot of pain my goal is to have all the yarn I can you are a inspiration to me Mikey God bless you & your videos.. Love Always Kenna Haughney from Lawton Oklahoma..
yarn makes me happy too! it's my happy place! ❤
My happiness to Mikey....nothing to be ashamed about. Crocheting gave me purpose when a bad surgery left me jobless. Now God has allowed me to do a prayer shawl ministry and it is very meaningful for me. So that said thank you for helping me with your tutorials, they rock and so do you. God Bless you!!!! Linda
I have started crocheting again after stopping over 30 years ago. I am enjoying it sooo much, and a big reason is because of your UA-cam videos. My husband told me yesterday that "this yarn thing has gotten out of hand"....... Lol! Thank you, Mikey, for making me happy. So many projects to make, so little time.
We never have enough. I even make the scraps into mini yarns that way i wont waste any yarn.thank you Mikey. You ROCk. Love you both💙💚💙💙
And I thought Mikey, you were in a Yarn Shop. So it is your LYS - in house. You are so blessed to have yarns to do your projects. Watching your store of yarn is a pleasure.
You are a sweetheart. I love you for being you. As I was listening and walking with you along your yarn journey, I also thought of the dust, but you answered it right away. Also, yarn and crocheting makes me the happiest woman on earth. When I'm crocheting, my mind is at ease, and I feel so refreshed. Thank you for your video, and stay happy with your balls. I love your collection and display.
Mikey you are hysterical. I totally agree. My yarn is my passion. Thank you for all you ❤️ do
My yarn collection is stored in the master bedroom closet for the time being. Fortunately my hubby understands since it takes up the whole back wall. Just a quick glance in the morning starts my day right. When I'm stressed I just have to stand in there looking it over and contemplating what to make next, and the stress just rolls off. Yarn and crocheting are my passion and bring me utter joy every day. Thanks, Mikey, for sharing your "collection" and your passion for the art, too!
I'm 9 years late to this video but I just love that you freely use a lot of affordable acrylics as well as the high end stuff. I love that you're not a yarn snob at all. I have a blanket my mother crocheted for me when I was 8 years old, and she only used Red Heart Super Saver -- I still have it to this day 40 years later and it's so damn soft. Thanks for sharing your yarn organization. It's a beautiful collection!
Stash? You have a WAREHOUSE! And it's AWESOME!
Knitting are mantras. The way I see it they're the physical manifestation of a mantra. A pattern that we repeat until we form something pretty and it's very soothing, relaxing it's a form of meditation. There's a lot of goodness in knitting in all its forms and you put a part of yourself in every completed piece. It also brings us a bit closer to the old ways.
I'm dead envious right now! :D
And thank you for sharing your emotions and philosophy with us!
Mikey you bring me Happiness! Thanks for sharing your special space with us. Love how you organized your yarn!
You're so comical Mikey. What a great sense of humor!
I feel the same way about yarn making me happy. My husband will not even dare say anything negative about all the yarn I have or what I spend on. He tried once until with some help😉, he was reminded on how I’m not a wife who shops, don’t care for worldly items such as, name brand purses, make-up, clothing, or electronic gadgets. Oh but show me something that makes my yarn world more beautiful and I’m all over it.
I love your tutorials, It’s rare that I set through a tutorial but that’s I’m working on my patience. Your tutorials are so up to date. I love that feature you added with the little alert sound letting us know to pause if we have to... Great idea!
Mikey, what balls you have!!!!! I'm envious, but my love of yarn and crocheting almost match yours. Thank you for all your tutorials, I have learned so much from you. What a joy you are to watch. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!
I agree with you so much! Nothing makes me happier than to create something and yarn brings me so much joy (especially when I can get great quality yarn for a cheap price). My friend brought me to the craft store during a big yarn sale and he said that seeing how happy I was (literally hopping up and down at the register) made him happy.
Mikey, AMEN to that!!! LOL...just last night, my husband said in a nice, loving way, "It's time to take all of your yarn in the bedroom, put them in boxes and put them in the OTHER room!" (Our boys just moved out and we are now empty nesters!)
I am part of a ministry or our church called, "A Stitch in Time". We make and bless people with prayer shawls, blankets and coverings to encourage them. And you're right, it TRULY gives us joy and happiness!
Thank you for your videos!
Emy 💕
I know how you feel... i take care of BOTH of my elderly parents and crocheting is my only outlet..... love ya..... thanks so much for your hard work
Well said, you made me realise that wool is my is my happiness too. I get sick of people telling me I have too much
I have Aspergers Syndrome and was diagnosed last April. I started knitting last year for something quiet to do. I found out that it helped calm me doing during an anxiety attack or when I'm bored or depressed. I recently started learning how to make my own! Yarn =life!
Creativity in general makes me happy. I draw, paint and wood burn too. I’m a jack of different arts and crafts and I love them all.
ME TOO....Yarn shopping makes me very happy....My crochet & knitting give me pleasure & fulfills my creativity...
Love 2 make projects 4 friends & family..
Their appreciation fills my giving character.
Thank you, Micky 4 sharing ur talent...🌻🌻
Crocheting is sometimes emotional for me, happy & sometimes sad. Happy thinking about what I'm creating and the person I'm 'creating it for. Sad sometimes thinking of my Grandma Dora who gave me the gift of crocheting. Many warm memories. I thank God for Grandma teaching me how to crochet when I was a little girl (I'm 60 now). Grandma used to have so much fun when she would “frog” my work. To this day I really don't mind “frogging” my work
if I have to (: Thank you for letting me share.
I'm so thrilled that you showed how much your yarn means to you. Just remember it takes a real man to show how much a real man loves his "BALLS"!🤣 seriously though you tickle me to death sometimes😂😂 my son gets so aggravated cause I wake him up laughing. Lol. The funny thing is I wear headphones so I can hear you well enough and nobody else can hear you. Lol Thank you so much for your patience because I'm sure it's very hard work and takes up very valuable crochet time! Thank you again!!!!!
You are such a sweetie pie! I love my yarn also. And thank you for all the inspiration and sharing your talent with us. My husband tells me he may have to do a yarn intervention. As I turned 61 this year, he said I may never use what I have and I told him my best friend already knows it all goes to her and to the church. Love your way of orgianizing.
I'm drooling!!! Over your yarn collection, that is! You have the cutest laugh. Love your tutorials and thank you for being here.
I agree that crocheting is therapeutic and relaxing. You can never have too much yarn.
Thanks for sharing. I never thought of sorting my yarn by maker; when I think about it though it makes perfect sense.
No Mikey you don't have enough balls Love u Mikey you're awesome thanks for letting me and you audience share your passions you inspire me to learn !😚Peace from NYC 😆 love
Thank you for making the point that your yarn makes you happy! I agree. I love colors and I love yarn and I don't care how much I have.. I like the way you organize it by brand - very good point.
Oh yes knitting and crochet are very stress free and helps relax the mind and body of everyday problems and thoughts..... It's a big get away relief space... If more people will go to crochet or knitting we will have a stress free world!
Hi Mikey, Thank you for sharing your love for the art of crocheting. I have been crocheting since I was about 14. I am now 53, and the love for the art of crocheting has grown, especially over the last year or so. I absolutely love your tutorials and love your style of teaching. You have a wonderful gift and I am so grateful that you have shared it with us. It's funny......my husband goes crazy with all the yarn I have in our in-law apartment (it's organized, not just thrown into a huge pile, lol), but over the last ten years he has learned to adjust, lol. Again, thank you for everything!!!!!!!
I agree with you crochet gives you a peaceful mind away from daily worries
When you got to 2:02, I needed to go get some yarn and love it. You're right, Mikey, fiber work reaches into the mind and heart, while the hands are at work in a beautiful way. Mine have been crocheting 50 years and rarely are the projects for myself. I cant wait for my order of yarn to arrive so I can start on my pal's poncho. Thanks for affirmation, Mikey. God bless you.
I want to say thank you for bringing awareness to the joy that can come from a simple ball of yarn. I suffer from bipolar one rapid cycling into two. Crocheting has been the best thing I’ve ever found to help with my mental well-being. You are one of the best teachers I’ve ever found your humor and joy are so contagious. Thank you for all you do!!
💚😊💚😊
It's helped me to stabilize myself. I was pretty suicidal at times and they yarn for me gives me purpose and micro goals to continue on.
Amen I love it ! I have just begun my little collection of yarns . I’m adding a addition my yarn room is under construction. My husband thinks I’m crazy but he support my yarn shopping because he knows it’s my new happy ! Thank you for inspiring me
You're awesome, Mikey. I really love how you phrased it about our yarn addiction making us happy. I needed that! Crocheting takes us to our happy place... easing us out of all the worries & pain & stress around us. I credit my mom for getting me "hooked" on crocheting by teaching me how to make the Red Heart Sashay Scarves but it only made me want more. I credit you with actually reteaching me many of my long lost skills &actually getting me going. You're a fabulous teacher with a great attitude. Thank you for sharing your love & passion for yarn & crochet!
Thanks to and other UA-cam crochet lessons, I can say I have mastered crochet. My yarn is also my happiness. Crochet saved my life. I suffer from many disorders, from anxiety to agoraphobia. The need to buy yarn has allowed me to leave my home to go get my fix of yarn that is usua
I feel your emotion. Crocheting got me off a lot of psych meds and I am obsessed. You aren't alone hun xxx
Thank you for stating the yarn makes you happy. I have yarn overload. 4 wiremesh organizers filled and tons more.
I don't think you could have put it any better. My yarn collection is in 8 large plastic tubs in my bedroom. Nothing gives me more pleasure then perusing all my beautiful yarns after a lousy day!!! Thanks Mikey!
So this video is nine yrs old n i have noticed that you still have so much careing/humorous personality n great ideas too. You make the art of crochet much more creative for me❣ im just getting started with my stash/balls, hehe!
LOVE you Mikey!! (And Diva Dan) Yes, there are many of us that find our Happiness in yarn.. Sending you a BIG hug from California
***You are the best!Thank you for all your generous time in sharing your skill.****
I read WhyClaire comments and that is fantastic how crochet has helped you recover and discover your true talent.
Well done Mikey. We love you.
London
Wow, Mikey, I love the idea of not mixing brands! See? That's one of the reasons you're the crochet teacher I chose! ❤️❤️❤️
i agree with you about yarn not being just yarn.to me it's my stress reliever since i lost my husband 6 years ago. my wish is one day to have a yarn haven as you do. God bless you and Daniel and thank you for all you do to make my days easier to get through.
Hey Mikey, I just started crocheting about nine months ago. I have been on disability for chronic pain since November 2012 and it has become therapy for me. I'm now trying to decide how to organize and store my yarn and accessories. Thanks for sharing.
I'm all verklempt...Talk amongst yourselves Always been one of my favorites snl segments... love how you use it
...and you taught me how to crochet!! I sit all day in a gatehouse letting people in and out and I was so bored and I thought I am going to learn to crochet...been watching your videos for 4 months now and I've made 2 blankets 4 scarves and one Christmas stocking..oh and lots of wash clothes
Thanks Mikey!!!
I understand how you feel. Yarn makes me happy too. I don't have as much as u do. As a matter of a fact I just start collecting yarn but when I crochet I feel happy and creative. I crochet everyday even if it is something simple
You can never have too many balls! Even if they sometimes get dusty lol
Crochet really helps with my autism and really relaxes me. I relate when you said it brings so much joy. Not a lot of people understand that especially people my age
I love your laugh, your honesty, & new ideas for storing yarn.
I am totally in love with all those balls in different sizes and colors. 😀💕
Quarantine time “forced” me to sit down and pick up my crochet hook (haven’t touched it in years). Now I can’t put it down. It brought so much joy and peace a contrast to what was happening all over the world. You were the first video I happen to catch. Your shawl was my first project. (2020) your instructions were so well presented. Thank you.
C19 has been an awakening for so many people. Not just crafting but life's goals in general as well.
Your words touched my heart, my happiness in crocheted yarn balls, I do not have a lot but I like what I have.
I love collecting yarn and fabric. That's what makes me happy. :)
I enjoy crochet - like you mentioned, it's therapeutic and creative. I have been doing (only - woops) Never Ending Granny Square blankets - done 3 for friends and now working on 2 as baby blanket and a friend just "ordered" me to do one (something blue to cover his printer). Whenever I heard about a friend getting pregnant I just go "yeh Can I make you a crochet baby blanket?". Gifting ppl something I make is very special as well as enjoyable. THANK YOU
Love ya Mikey, all about the love of crocheting & knitting. You are awesome!!!!!!
Hi Mikey - thank you so much for putting into words exactly how I feel about crochet and knitting. You are so right, and do you know what, nobody gets it if they don't crochet or knit. I get so much pleasure buying yarn, finding bargains and learning new stitches. I could go on but I think I'm gushing a bit!I just wanted to say thank you for being the one who passed it all onto me x
Awesome . Certainly makes me happy to see you so happy. Crocheting certainly does bring peace and happiness to me. Thank you for all your creative ideas you share with us all. Keep smiling.....
I feel EXACTLY the same way. My carpel tunnel prevents me from needle knitting & crocheting so i loom knit. It saved my life. Literally, my high blood pressure, blood sugar, depression ect. I am lucky enough that my husband is also my best friend. Our boys even help me knit. Ty for all of your videos that teach how to loom knit different things. I watch all kinds of videos you have out. I loved your felting one too ! The yarn, the fibers, the feel and textures of different yarns give me peace and calmness. Ok, let's get less serious now... We can never have too many balls!!! And no no no sloppy balls !! LOL We love you and all of your balls Mikey ❣❣
yarn brings me happiness. I love to knit and crochet, both bring me calm and peace. Thanks Mikey for sharing your passion, it inspires me to do more. I hope one day I will be able to join you all on one of the cruises you do. I have friends that can't believe there is a crochet cruise. My mom and I were planning to join you all on the cruise a couple of years ago, but she got ill and passed away last year. she was my craft partner, we did it all together. (knit, crochet, sew, needle point, latch hook, and coloring) I have a few pictures of you helping her with a project she was having trouble with when you guys were in Washington, NC a few years ago. Thanks for helping her understand that pattern she was working on. I hope to see you again soon. Keep that passion you have.
You took the words right outta my mouth. Yarn is my joy too. Even if I don’t use it. Love it.
You almost made me cry. Beginner here and totally hooked. It is so personal and promotes a feeling of accomplishment. Just getting to thinking about organization as I buy more yarn. Thanks for heading me in the right direction.
Mikey, like your video. I learned basic crocheting with my mom when I was young and never continued to crochet. After so many years I started again after I was diagnosed with Hodgkins Disease 4 years ago. One day I was going nuts with boredom in my house cause I had to stop working and went and bought some yarn and hooks and staring crocheting using videos on youtube. It makes me feel much better and relaxed. It also gives me lots of joy when I can finish something and give it away. Thanks
You brought ME happiness! Loved this video!! :-) I had carpal tunnel surgery at the beginning of this year (2013) and am looking forward to knitting again after 20 years of not being able to! I'm just so busy with my organic garden in what little free time I have when not working my full-time job and tending to family matters. It'll be like starting all over! Wishing you happiness always Mikey!
LOVE LOVE LOVE when you talk to us just being you, love it
Mikey you are a hoot love watching you create I like you find that when I get stressed out I turn to my crochet and I am always stressed my husband says cause he sees me crocheting all the time but I just tell him that when I crochet I am in my quite zone and he says he loves that . So just keep on keeping on and share that smile with your work thanks again.
I just can say OMG I would like to live sorrouded all that yarn!!! I think it's so great...
This video made me cry... I was so overwhelmed to start organizing my yarn because it is all over my home and there is so much but I few like I can do it!
Great collection! Mikey, you just don't realize how you make me happy as I watch your videos. I love how you teach me to crochet with accompanying hand gestures and funny talks.. you always make my day. Thank you so much. God bless you.
