I like the new weekly format 😊 So good to see the pupper doing so well, she's amazing! I tried cross stitch a few times but it wasn't for me. I love seeing what people make though. At least with the bigger car you can fit Danny's football gear, a craft project or two, snacks, a couple of kids, and any bits and bobs you need from the store in one trip 😁
Aw I'm so pleased 😊 we can definitely fit more in the car! No problem when we go shopping it just fits! Amazing! Yes Ruby is doing fab 🥰 she's been such a good girl with it all she has coped brilliantly 🥰xx
We love seeing you whatever way works for you 💕. Stop worrying about how long it is. We don’t mind 😊 I am sure others agree. Did you see the sparkle DMC floss and the Glow in the Dark floss also? Lol. I chuckled when you said you only need 1 floss boxes. 😂 it will not take you that long to get your giraffe done, you are addicted now. ❤
Hi Alex! I've missed you! Welcome back! Your cross stitching pictures are so cute!! 🥰 Cross stitch was my first crafty love. Oh, i love the colors in your socks and how you knit them.❤ An hour long vloggy podcast is fine!! Don't worry.
Aw thankyou I am really enjoying cross stitch plus with the warm weather it's a bit easier isn't it than using yarn 😁 I think I'm definitely addicted to cross stitch! 😁xx
Love the new weekly vlog Alex, I’ve just returned to cross stitching myself and Mark up R-XP was a game changer for me and helped me to enjoy my stitching so much more - glad it’s worked well for you too - can definitely recommend the Nurge hoops 😊😊
Love the vlogs Alex, you've given me the cross stitch bug I'm searching patterns.😂 Planning next year's weeks holiday with my daughter and we are thinking Yorkshire be good to get back to my roots x
Oh yes that would be a fab holiday 😊 ah sorry not sorry for passing the cross stitch bug on! It seems to be going round all the knitters 🤣 go with it easier than trying to fight it 🤭 xx
This format is great Alex, as long as it suits you. It’s lovely having you here every week. I want to comment on everything but then I’d be here for an hour 😂. I got started back to cross stitching because of your caravan and I’ve done several since including the Historical Sampler ones and I’ve loved them. Thanks for the info about the half and half skeins, now it makes sense. Lovely to see Ruby doing so well. Take care, all of you. Xx
Aw thankyou so much amd I'm so pleased I took you down the rabbit hole with me! I'm enjoying learning what style of cross stitch I like and really looking forward to the stitch along with historical sampler! Xx
Bravo!! Love the vlog so! The cross stitch is super amazing , I’d love to learn if you do a tutorial eventually, I’m almost finished with Colorwork yoke for autumn bloom, I won’t lie it’s taking forever😂but tv knitting after that! Can’t wait for next episode, the format is great!!
Aw I'm so pleased you liked it 🥰 you are amazing doung colourwork! I'm yet to try a proper colourwork! I have done a nice easy pair of mits but that's it. Have a great week 🥰xx
I love them all Alex but personally the vlogs are my real favourite and I always feel like we are having a chat , so for me I really enjoyed this new way going forward for a change , its amazing as always You are a natural and everything is very interesting , loving all your projects , see you soon 😘xx
Lovely to see you, don't care how long it is😹. Teddy Bear is gorgeous. I don't think it will take you til October to finish the giraffe at the rate you're going 😂. Hope you enjoyed the cross stitch group xx
I didn't actually get to cross stitch group had a terrible headache so I stayed home will get there next time 🥰 hopefully it will last me till at least the beginning of September I don't want to finish it too soon because I'm only going to want another 🤣xx
Hi Alex, have you looked at caterpillar cross stitch, it makes me want to start again but I really don’t have the time 😂. I love your giraffe cross stitch. Your teddy looks fantastic and I love your hat. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend xx
Yes I have I was very tempted by the halloween stitch along but with still being new I wanted to stick to just on my own at the moment until I'm more confident. They have a gorgeous map on their website that I'm eyeing up though! Hope you have a lovely weekend too 🥰xx
Loving the new format , definitely prefer a vloggy podcast …. Your new dyes are gorgeous …your giraffe looks a pleasure to work on , I remember sketching a similar pic few years ago love it lots can’t wait to see your progress each week xx
Loving the vlog format and you don’t need to worry about it being too long. I used to cross stitch years ago and I am resisting having a go again as I have enough knitting materials around the house without adding more crafty bits and pieces 😂
Aw go on...... ....just a little one.....🤣 I'm enjoying cross stitching such alot amd when I pick up my knitting I enjoy the nice change 😁 plus it's keeping me from casting on all the things 🤣xx
Love the vlog format. Don’t apologise for the length of it . We can always watch in segments. Thank you for showing the King Cole teddy bear. I will be ordering pattern and yarn later! Chris.
🤣🤣🤣 “half an hour”??? We know you too well Alex! Loving your enthusiasm for the gnome cross stitch and that giraffe- wow! I’ve always thought it must be quite easy but seeing your describing and pics of how all the stitches meld together I can see how tricky it must be to follow pattern. I don’t think my eyes could cope! Hope the cat sitting went ok. We used to have a hamster called Stripe. Forgot about Danny’s football- hope his legs are getting used to it!! 😘😘
It's an 'Alex half hour' 🤣🤣 which could mean anywhere between 10 mins amd 10 years 🤣 some have been easier than others - the giraffe is definitely the most difficult one I have done! The colours are so similar amd the stitches so far apart! But I'm managing - just! Ypu can get grided aida - I should have used that 🤣 yes cat sitting went fine Jake is home now and stripey has forgiven them for having a couple of nights away 🤣 xx
I started the Steven West ssal. I loved the first one. Did the second part. But I don't like knitting socks in the flat. So I have pulled back the heel,, I am going to finish it off and a fingerless glove. Then do another one to make a pair, wish me luck.

@myyarnycorner thankyou hun . You are star.

That's half the fun isn't it - getting it all ready to go! I did that with my gnome while I was still stitching the sheep 😁 I collected everything together and got it ready to go 🥰xx
