Oh my goodness😮❤ I so enjoyed this video It was so exciting to see all the cute creatures I Lloooooove that bee keeper bear. It is so stinking adorable. I am so glad you shared the post by Crystal❤❤❤ I am ready for whimsical Stitches if you know me?, you know what I will pick🩵🩵 You surprised me with the cupcake dedication that was so Sweet thank you Cassandra ❤❤
My friend, I am looking forward to the world tour book reaching you, and for the very adorable project I'm sure we are all expecting 🥳❤️ Hope you had a good birthday 🤗🤗
I love the caiman color! Beautiful! I can’t wait for the pattern for the bumble bee bear! He’s ADORABLE! All your Sammy bears are great! And the story was truly adorable!! I smiled through this entire video! Great to visit with you this morning!
I'm so glad you had a good staycation. 😊 I love seeing what you've been up to. So many amazing projects! The story about the black bear Sammy is hilarious!!! I love seeing the swim bear in different yarns. So fantastic 🥰💖 Your cupcake to Caroline is so sweet! I can't wait to see more of the world tour projects. It's so much fun!
That yarn is perfect for that caiman! You have been busy on your holiday. Julie’s daughter is so talented! The bee bear is absolutely darling! I can’t wait to buy that pattern. 🐝🐝 You are so talented at designing!
Cassandra!! You made me cry with all of your kindness and sweetness and loveliness my friend!! 😭💕😭💕😭 It means so much to me that you loved my story about Sammy Swim-time the Alberta Black Bear. I appreciate the opportunity you gave me to test your amazing pattern - I look forward to keeping in touch with you across the miles! Big hugs from Canada! 🇨🇦
@@sofaspudstitches my friend, how can I live without having these types of stories for ALL my designs 😅 You will have to be hired as permanent staff now 😁💕
Hi Cassandra! 🙂The beekeeper bear is fantastic! So many adorable projects. I also really love the pink bear. Your longer video was perfect, I was untangling some yarn the whole time. 😄❤
Thanks, Bonnie! Yarn tangles...I hate them 😅 I have chucked loads of yarn in the bin during my crocheting life due to tangled messes that I don't have the patience for!
I love the alligator! That yarn is perfect. The colors blend together to look so realistic. It is fun to have time to do what you want in a day. I am retired and get to pick what to do, but I don't get in as much crafting because there are always things that need to be done. I went right away and bought your bear pattern and can't wait to get started. The only problem is now I want you to put out a pattern with other clothes for the bear. Please! Those little pink and camouflage outfits are sooo cute! Keep up the great work. I look forward to your videos. You seem like a friend.😊
That green yarn was a dream to work with! I have a new appreciation for these specialty hand-dyed yarns 😍 I'm planning to create more free add-ons for my bear patterns 🐻🎉
I hereby order your workplace to give you two weeks off, every month, on full pay, because my god have we been spoilt during your fabulously productive staycation 💕✨!! Absolutely gorgeous makes as always, Cassandra ❤ Blown away by just how perfect that stunning Lay Family Yarn was for the little crocodile 💚🐊! The various shades of green and brown, it truly was crying out for the ‘ami crocodile’ treatment 💕👏 brilliant choice! ✨🥂 Congrats again on the instant success of your patterns. My hooks have indeed been quivering 8n anticipation of getting to them already 🥰 So looking forward to it. Especially perfect as it starts to heat up down here. I may have to whip up the vest first, whilst it’s still a bit chilly 😊❄ Love seeing everyone’s Whimsical makes, including yours ✨! Happy belated birthday to the lovely, Caroline 🧁! A lovely gesture! And as far as Mr. Honey Bear goes…Cassandra….he is WONDERFUL 🍯✨!! I love his expression and the little bees 🥰 Man you are just so flipping clever with that hook and creativity of yours 🥳🙌 Amazing job! Xx
Of course I fully agree that my workplace should give me time off, with full pay, to work on my hobby! I mean, do they even realize that they have employed a micro-celebrity with many other more important things to do than what they actually pay me for 🤣🤣 I hope to enjoy early retirement one day 😉
Hi Cassandra 🤗 always a pleasure hanging out with you! Sooo much cuteness! I looovvve all your makes! I’ve been looking at that book, thank you for sharing! 🥰🧶🤩
I loved hearing all about what you have been up to - so many bears! You did great work with the honey-bee bear! Your new amigurumi book looks interesting - alas my budget doesn't allow for it (yet!).
Some beautiful makes there Cassandra! I have purchased your pattern and will be bringing Sammy to life in plush yarn :) Wow, you like bears? No.... who would have thought? haha xx
Wow! So much to talk about. It was lovely to chat with you last night by email. Sorry though, I forgot about the time difference and didn't realize it was so late. I saw the alligator and Sam in his sweater on Insta. So cute. I rushed over to Etsy and bought the pattern of Sam and your mouse. Can't wait to make them. Thank you for making the sweater pattern available. I will give my bear a cute sweater too. I will have to make a Samantha as well. The variegated yarn is so pretty. Your bee bear, you knocked that pattern out of the park!! His crossed eyes looking at the bee on his nose is perfect. I am enjoying the journey journal so much. Everyone is doing a great job of contributing to our crochet community. I can't believe how fast the book is traveling. Great idea Cassandra. Have a great week.
@@maryrosemitchell2528 I loved your email last night! Usually I'm not awake that late, but because it was the last Saturday of our leave, my husband and I stayed up until after midnight to stretch the day out as long as possible 🤣🤣 I hope to add the sweater vest pattern during the week, because I liked the option of changing outfits to match the seasons 🐻❤️
So many amazing projects Cassandra! I've had a lot going on this week, but I certainly plan on making Sammy asap! Such an adorable pattern and I love how you showed how it looked in different styles! The All from Jade book is high on my list, I really like the simplicity yet versatility of the book. I think it will be a great one to add to my library! I've never had a hank of yarn, I wouldn't even know what to do with it 😂 I definitely gravitate toward greens so I love that color way so much! It worked up wonderfully and gives your Alligator a nice camouflage look! Thank you so much for sharing Kaitlyn's drawing of Sunny, it totally made her day! I think it's amazing how her art is in another country right now and I am so glad that you enjoyed it! I got a big set of pencils and trust me if you do scenes with nature, you're going to need those greens 😂 The beekeeper bear is just the icing on the cake, he turned out so good! I am loving seeing your journey on designing and your creativity coming to life is so fun! 🤗🥰
These days I prefer the easier/simpler patterns compared to the massively detailed ones. With life always being busy I just need a quick fix now and then 😅 The 'All from Jade' book is really great for this. I'm planning to work my way through all 120 of those pencils soon!
My wish list is getting longer and longer. That drawing is fabulous!! Oh MY Goodness, I need to make a Bee Keeper Bear! He is the Bomb Digity!!! Awesomely cute, adorable and so much more!!! I purchased your patterns. I love them so much. I have a whale to take a pic of to send. I want to make other items for the world tour but am currently testing a Donkey pattern for Lucy Kate. Love your videos no matter how long they are. Your friend in Minnesota, USA. (Anxiously awaiting my turn at the Worlf Tour Book.)
Thank you ❤ My wish list is truly never ending. As soon as I start watching UA-cam videos, then something pops up that I really NEED! The world tour book is traveling so fast these days that I can hardly keep up to date with all the projects 😅
I have just brought your pattern for Swim Time Sammy and I love that little jumper for him, I hope you make it available. Maybe he could be a seasonal bear with the swim ring and shorts for Summer and the Jumper for Winter or even Autumn. He could have a hat and scarf to add for Winter. Maybe a raincoat and wellys for Spring. Just an idea. All your patterns are so cute, you are very clever 😊
I love how your makes using the green wool turned out! My wool is mostly bright colors together (one I had was named Clown Barf haha!) Using scraps to make vests for amigurumi is a new idea for me. 🧡
I love the beekeeper bear! When you did the modified challenge, I was planning on doing something with a butterfly on the nose but I couldn't find what I wanted. But you totally nailed it! Love him! Do you really like bears? 😜😂❤
Not sure that I would be able to crochet a small enough bee to sit on his nose, but I will have to think of something if I end up writing up the pattern 🐻 Unless I just make a really gigantic bear 😅
Hello Cassandra really enjoyed visiting you today I have just bought your bear and mouse pattern. The bear is just adorable.a must do soon for my Great Grandaughter 6 and loves swimming. I am doing Christmas in July and have finished 2 pairs of socks and am currently making a tealight angel. It is afternoon here in the UK and for today it is sunny. I showed my son your video on visiting the castle, they lived in Copenhagen while my son worked for Maersk. Hope you do the bee bear pattern Hilary
@@willowatherton4238 thank you 💕 The Maersk building in the city is amazing, built to look like shipping containers. And it has a fabulous view, so your son must have enjoyed it there 😁
@@craftablyeverafter Yes he did they say it is the best Country they have lived in. Sadly we never got to visit. My husband passed away 20 months ago. They now live in Edinburgh. Have a good evening Hilary
Ahhhh! Cassandra! I was the someone who mentioned making the Honey Bear with an expression and I think it looks fantastic! I really love the addition of the green in the eyes and they eyebrows were great! I'm wondering if when you make it again to make the brim of the hat a bit bigger? All your makes are super gorgeous! I love that yarn you used for the cayman.
Trying a different expressions was harder than I thought (the poor bear had 5 eye replacements and 3 mouth 'surgeries' before I was willing leave it as is...😅). I agree on a bigger brim (to fit with the bigger belly I also have planned 😊🐻🐝)
Hi Cassandra, All your bears are gorgeous!! I am thinking your caiman maybe needs a pink bikini??? The sun flower looks lovely but lots of sewing (i'm not a fan of sewing) and I am about to start on my turtle. I am a bit behind as I had a lot of problems with my poor duck. He is in the naughty corner at the moment but I will finish him.
I enjoyed your video showing your duck 😅 Poor thing! But you can do it! I think the crocodile with a bikini will have to be a pattern I work on soon, I really like that idea 🐊👙
I am going out on a crazy limb here and say uh…you have a love affair with bears, winter bears, fishing bears, mad bears, naughty bears etc… I am spot on huh? Kidding aside, I love all your makes! Can’t wait to get some of your patterns and that -Not moving cause there’s a bee on my nose Bee Bear! He is hilarious 😂 -Myna
@@craftablyeverafter that’s exciting. want to buy the book and hopefully send in some pictures of the ones picked in Canada. Since I live there as well 😊
