    You've been so busy! All of these pieces are so fun. And I appreciate how gentle you are with personal criticisms. I don't love everything I've ever made, and I sometimes have trouble articulating that. P.S. Shame on Shein for ripping off your pattern. They're just the worst. Wish there was a class action lawsuit for all of the artists they've ripped off.

      hello 🥹🥹 i wish there was one as well - i genuinely don’t understand how they can just get away with it especially after being called out on it by more than dozens of artists. also, even though there are pieces we don’t like and pieces that we won’t in the future- just creating them gives us more skill to make even better designs later on :,) so that’s a good thing to keep it mind

      @@sophiebraun1650 The fibers rubbing together into those lint balls does thin out the fabric slowly, but shaving it off doesn't, since you're just getting rid of the lint balls and it doesn't shave off any of the intact fibers!

    I'm so hooked on your videos. I'm from Sweden with long and strong knitting- and crochet culture. I'm always told how everything is supposed to be made. I can't even tell my mom what I'm planning to make without being cross-examed on every tecnique, yarn, pattern I'm planning to use.

    A tip for the feel of yarn, before making your sweater or shirt, grab the raw skein of yarn and hold it on your neck. If it’s comfortable then you’re a okay to use it. If it’s not, then you’re going to spend a lot of time on something you’re not gonna wear :) (little tip my mom learned in Norway when she learned to knit)

    I have a tip for strengthening the straps of your bags that I do a lot, especially with the granny square tote bags! If you slip stitch around the straps and edge of the bag, it helps keep everything in place and keeps the straps from stretching too much. I started doing this because the first bag I had made for myself stretched way too much and felt super unstable. Hope this helps!!

    I would suggest making a binder of the yarn wrappers organized by brand, material, weight, then color, and then adding a little snip of the yarn. I always keep the wrappers in case i need to buy more yarn. You don’t have to keep the wrappers you can just write all the information on a paper and use the Pokémon card binder sleeves for better organization. By the way, Im 13 and I have been crocheting for about 2 years and I always watch your videos while I crochet. You’re the best!!! And don’t be too judgmental about your pieces because I love them and I would never be able to have the focus to make sweater after sweater without doing other projects in between. Keep on crocheting!! 😊

Try it for your jacket. Did it the other day for a snood I made.

    People already mentioned the fabric shaver, but another thing that's great to do to avoid getting all that lint in the first place is how you wash it! I always wash anything knitted/crocheted in these laundry mesh bags, so that the clothes don't rub together in the washer. I can't recommend the mesh bags enough, I've noticed a huge difference on all my clothes! I also only wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle, and air dry them either laying flat or hung up (depending on the piece). I never use the dryer for any clothes, since that honestly just destroys clothes so fast ;;
    Love all the pieces you made, and I can't wait to see more

    I upcycle (sew, paint, crochet, knit, weave, knot, stitch, embroider, felt, embellish) clothes and things with Persian calligraphy, Persian rug motifs and Persian colours in the style of punk aesthetics.
    because of its punk nature mistakes are part of my artistic language and almost all my pieces remain unrefined and purposefully unfinished, but in a natural way. instead of actually adding aesthetic mistakes or creative chaotic finishes, I make every piece's mistake and/or unrefined aspects fit the design in such way that it becomes an innate aspect.
    Persian calligraphy and Iranian Persian rug motifs are incredibly delicate and require dexterity that's not achieved through hobbyism. the best thing I did was to relieve myself from my Iranian calligraphy education regiment and allow myself to enjoy my mistakes. I have v few pieces that are mistake free. ppl actually play "Where's Waldo" with the mistakes in my pieces when they acquire them. i love that.
