I love that you are not only taking on crochet but dedicating whole videos to it! And that it’s elegant crochet as opposed to just blankets and stuffies! I hope to see more of this from your channel.
I am SO here for the crochet! As an avid knitter I had to take a little knit break due to some tendonitis issues I was having so I hopped on back to my crochet roots. I also dove into Tunisian crochet as well and am loving it. Toni has been a great help. Keep the crochet content coming!
I love trying new things, but have a very high threshold for not wanting to buy new things. Something that's been helpful to me personally is seeing if I can do the thing without buying anything, and then if I do the thing and like it, I will invest in the thing. One example, three years ago, I decided I wanted to learn the ukulele. Ukuleles are not expensive instruments, but I didn't want to spend $50 and end up with something I never used and just made me feel guilty every time I saw it. I discovered that our local library had ukuleles to check out, so I checked one out for 30 days and challenged myself to practice every day for those 30 days. I did it, really enjoyed it, and ended up deciding it was worth the purchase. Obviously, you can't practice run everything before spending money, but it's helpful to see what you can do BEFORE investing money, and if you stick with it, then spend the money.
So glad you’re enjoying crochet! I crocheted for years… all sorts of items. Then taught myself to knit. I actually had to stop w the blankets/afghans…. I have plenty!! Gifting one is nice, but a commitment for sure. I switch between the 2 crafts, keeps my brain happy! Glad crochet is bringing you joy & keep spreading the word!
Hi. Thanks for the podcast. Well done with the Fruit Garden - that's impressive and inspirational. I love all Janie's blanket patterns and hope to start the Fruit Garden when I get some other wips out of the way.
Found all the fruit garden crochet tutorials on UA-cam for all the squares. Yey!
Glad you found them! Her channel is really informative :D
I am getting back into Tunisian crochet too with the Mulberry afghan. I am making it for my grand daughter and am about 3/4 done. Can't wait to see it all finished and blocked!
Great video! The music change and third person point of view at the beginning of the video made me laugh.
Okay, that is so cool! As you were talking about your Tunisian shawl and frogging it, I was working on my Tunisian crochet project. It’s pretty simple and repetitive, but I’m using a yarn with a color gradient. Then you shared your next project by Toni and it’s the Mulberry!! That’s what I’m working on. How fun! 👏🏼😁
So cool to see you still embracing the crochet!! I totally feel the take over. I have been crocheting a lot in the last 2 or 3 months. I picked up my knitting (a pair of socks) and it lasted 2 days and I was back to crocheting. I think it's the bit of instant satisfaction we get at the end of a project 🧡
So many great crochet teachers here on UA-cam like BOD, Jonna Martinez and the secret yarnery.
So in the last two weeks, I've frogged my first sweater project so I could start my first Flax Light, learned the basics of tatting because I found a haul of hand-dyed silk cordonnet at my local thrift store, while still continuing to work on a pair of socks for my son, who is a triple wide size 12. Tatting has consumed most of my free time. Oh! I also found a book of crochet hexagons that I'm going to use for my scrap yarn and then eventually assemble a bedspread out of.
Can I ask where you got started with tatting? I have tools and want to start learning!
@@melitacarder I just searched UA-cam for Beginning Shuttle Tatting. The videos I personally found most useful were by Bryce Adams. I also watched some videos from a Georgia Seitz channel? The most useful video was Bryce Adam's video using large silk cord to show "flipping the knot". Good Luck! I am working with cheaper crochet cotton until I get better at it.
@@ildonoa3928 thank you so much. I’ll check them out 👍
Oooh, tatting! That's a rabbit hole I hope to go down one day. That hand-dyed silk haul sounds incredible!
@@ildonoa3928 OK. I couldn't help myself. Just watched the tutorial with Bryce Adams. What sorcery is this?! 🤯
Crochet is all I do.😊
I recommend the Harper Bucket bag by Toni Lipsey. It is cute and stylish and works up in a day or two if you have nothing else going on! 🥰
I'm almost the opposite. I have at least 15 crochet wips, and have 2 knit. My craft room is overflowing 😁
Thanks for sharing this. Luxury projects! ❤
Crochet is truly making a comeback! I work in a yarn shop and so many people are coming in to learn how to crochet!
Your hair looks so pretty Kristin! Loving the crochet takeover. 🧶Love the look of those red Tulip hooks.
Thanks, Roshelle! Finally figured out how to use my new curling iron 😂
Same here😅Kristen! Crochet has taken over. I wonder if Jane Crowfoot has tutorials for this Afghan. Looks complicated but would love to try. ❤
Welcome to the wonderful world of crochet, Kristin. I knit and crochet (and sew and embroider and...) and usually have at least two knit and crochet items on the needles and hooks. I have made two Fruit Garden throws, 4 Persian Tiles, 2 Frida's Flowers and a Mystical Lanterns scarf (not yet complete) and more by Janie. I took a class with her at EYF in 2019 and she is really great. Also check out Dedry Uys (Lookatwhati made). Her designs are wonderful as well. Her Sophie's Universe went viral a few years ago and of course I jumped on the bandwagon and made two.
You are a great sales person, convinced me to buy the kit😂
Hah, I promise, I'm not sponsored 😂 I hope you enjoy making Fruit Garden as much as I am!!
Your blanket is cute. I commend you because I have yet to finish a blanket
I learned to crochet when I was young! I've made a bunch of baby blankets, bed size blankets and individual blankets perfect for sitting in recliners. I've also made 3 sweaters. When I turned 40 I learned how to knit and socks have become my favorites. Watching you fall down the crochet rabbit hole, I'm seeing things I would love to make and I feel patterns have become better over time. Thank you for showing me some of the new to me crochet items!
I would love to make a bed size blanket! So glad you're finding out about new patterns through my channel, Caroline. There really are a lot of great ones out there!
Love love love the Fruit Garden Blanket. I feel my arm being twisted in all kinds of directions 😂. Yes. Excited to see your spinning portion. I too just spin however the fiber wanted to be spun. More enjoyable for me that way. Thanks for sharing. Love your channel
The fruit garden blanket is gorgeous! I made Frida's Flowers by Jane Crowfoot and I was like you too - amazed that I had actually made the squares that look so impressive. But I want to crochet all her blanket patterns 🖤
Same!! After this pattern, I want to make her Persian Tiles 🤤
Your Intentions Wrap 🙀 I love it! You HAVE to finish that moody lovely lacy gem. It is, in my mind, what I picture a Voolenvine spring piece would be. Also, when you edit your footage now, do you smile with excited satisfaction at how your room decor evolved?! You backdrop is just, 😘 chef's kiss.
Thank you, Tania! Oh, I do intend on finishing my Intentions wrap 😂And yes!!! I love the way my craft room has come together. The wallpaper is the icing on the cake for me 😁
I am so thrilled to see all your beautiful crochet garments! Yes, stripes give me LIFE! I've wanted to make the Lamia wrap but haven't found the right yarn either. I enjoy fingering weight with crochet too! Thanks for sharing.
Sometimes we just need to give up on projects. I have a hard time letting go when the excitement ends. I love the Fruit Garden Afghan. It sent me down a rabbit hole into all the crochet patterns. Janie Crow's patterns are all beautiful
It really IS hard! I'm getting better at admitting to myself that I've lost interest in a project and never coming back to it. In my mind, if I don't finish it, the project did its job by making me feel excited for the amount of time that it did. 😌
@@Voolenvine I love this idea ❤️, that projects have a greater purpose than simply becoming a finished object. Process makers for the win 🥇
I love the blanket you're working on, I've done a few of her designs. I use Wool Warehouse all the time, it's one of the best places in the UK to get yarn online. 😁 Enjoying your journey into crochet. I've been knitting for nearly 40 years and learned to crochet about 10 years ago, love them both. xx
have you ever tried a technique called mosaic crochet? a lady named Tinna has an entire channel on here dedicated to it and her works are gorgeous. if you haven’t, it’s well worth a try!
I’ve done the mulberry blanket from Toni, I made it a lap blanket size and I use it on my couch every night!
I love that you’re getting into crochet. I’m a crocheter who can’t knit, but I’m taking my first class on the 24th of this month. I’m so excited!
Yeah! That sounds awesome! Bet you'll catch on in no time.
Tried to sign up for what knitting class but the instructor canceled (sick) 😝 so maybe one day soon I can take a knitting class, too.
Have fun! 🧶🥰
That's awesome!! Good luck and have fun learning to knit. 😄
I just finished the Fruit Garden Blanket in the same colorway! I’m giving it as a bridal shower gift. I love the way it turned out, but I wish I had seen the turquoise colorway before I ordered my kit… man, oh man… that one is STUNNING!
Oh I know! I was a little torn between this color scheme and the turquoise. It's all so beautiful!! Also, what a wonderful bridal gift!
Love your fur baby comfortably settling on your granny squares🥰 Which raises a question.....you must keep your kittys' claws clipped nice and short ? That has been my disappointment with knitted//crocheted blankets is all the pulls from kitty kneading etc. They blankets are beautiful but not very useable for me because of this. It is also my humble opinion that you are too far along on your Lamia wrap to frog it😱 Such beautiful work and I'm sure it will be warm and lovely to wear. Thank you for all your shares and your energy!
Thank you so much, Debbie! Believe it or not, Bella's very gentle when sitting on my knits. Even when we play, I rarely feel her claws so we've never had to trim them. We lucked out! 🐱💖
I love that blanket you’re making. I’ve been feeling the urge to crochet too, next payday I’m ordering that kit in the same colourway. Thank you for the inspiration. 😊
Good luck with finishing Fruit Garden Blanket on time! About the Mulberry Afghan (you almost told it yourself) it's a pretty good lap blanket while reading or watching TV and I believe Bella gonna love it!
Your crochet items are really beautiful. I would like to try that blanket but it does look intricate. 😀
Thank you so much! The way the pattern is written breaks everything down into small manageable steps. I say give it a try! 😄
I appreciate all of this so much as someone who knits and crochets. I began last year crocheting with the intention of making one of those ridiculous cat couches. I still haven't got around to that couch, and in the last week we took in a kitten. Life happens. Don't worry about the accumulating WIPS. :) Thanks for sharing.
Aww, congrats on your new edition! 🐱💖
I made the Mulberry blanket too! I used the blue and green yarn and at the baby shower, people said it looked like stained glass. Such a great pattern!
Oh wow! I remember admiring the blue/green Mandala colorway at Joann's. I could totally see that looking like stained glass. 😍
The fruit garden blanket is amazing! I think I’ll make it for a summer project. Great episode
Lovely projects! I am also signed up for the Granny Square class. 😃
YESSS!!!! 🤗
My mother did amazing crochet work. She made an entire bedspread for me with tiny crochet thread. I so wish she could have had access to the almost endless choice of patterns.
WOW! That must have taken some incredible focus and dedication. Talk about an heirloom!
It’s wild how I decided to take a Crochet I class, and it seems like my knit favs are riding the crochet wave. I’m addicted, and it feels like I’m in concert with people I admire energies. I gotta know- where did you get your T? Sorry. Amazing.
I know, right? So glad crochet is having a moment with knitters. And, hah, Thanks! Believe it or not, I got my T-shirt over 10 years ago from Urban Outfitters. 🙈 Still one of my faves and so happy it's held up.
Crochet hooks are also called crochet "needles," so your terminology is not wrong. My English grandmother called her hooks "needles," and so I occasionally do the same. BTW, I love my Tulip Reds! So smooooth.
Oh I love watching but had to pause to comment… 41 Fahrenheit is 5 degrees Celsius!!! I’m so glad for you that it’s warming up from the cold and snowy winter 💚
Love seeing all the crochet 🧶 a different side to using yarn creatively 💚
Ah, thanks for that. I usually look up the Celcius after and add it while editing, but completely forgot, this time. 😄
Oh no…don’t frog the beautiful wrap 😮….maybe someone else might like to finish it? 😳🖤 P.S. Love the skulls💀
The crochet bug is biting! I started knitting last year but crochet is my first love and I started a new baby blanket last week. It's already halfway done and I can't believe I set crochet aside for so long
I’m new to your channel and I love it, you’re very inspiring and interesting. Can you tell me where you got the white cubby that holds your yarn goodies? I’ve not seen one like that anywhere and I’m looking to make a little area in my home for a crochet space. Thank you.
Welcome to my channel, Robin! I'm so glad you're loving it. 💖 The cubby unit behind me and the basket inserts are all from IKEA. It's from their KALLAX line. :D
Hey love why don't you keep the lamina wrap as a travel project that way you'll finish it at some point or a de-stress project. Just a suggestion 🥰
Another great episode. Does the jane crowfoot pattern come in uk crochet terms too?
Yes, it does! www.stylecraft-yarns.co.uk/crochet-and-knit-along It comes in 5 different terms :D
@@Voolenvine yay! Thank you! ❤️
Did you see Justin beiber wearing one of janes crochet blankets
Sorry to be 'that person', but what happened to the crocheted mitred square blanket that you were working on during the move?
It LIVES! 😆 Don't worry. That's not hitting the frog pond. Just excited about other projects at the moment.
Such a pretty girl wearing a very disturbing shirt.
