So sorry for your loss! lost my dad 14 years ago and still miss him everyday. You always bring so much joy and I am happy that you feel well enough to podcast! Take care!
Oh my love no apologies needed you are never prepared for loss especially when it’s a parent You are blessed to have your dad for so long. And it’s never enough time . When you are feeling overwhelmed or in a fog. Breathe in to the count of 10 all your happy thoughts and memories of you and your dad. Exhale all the sadness and lonlyness you are never without your dad his love his wisdom his humor lives on with in you
I am so sorry you lost your Dad😢 I know how that feels when you’re close. I lost mine when I was 18 I’m 73 and I still feel the loss. My Dad was my world for a lot of my childhood. I crochet but I love your videos. You are awesome!! Take care of you, it will get easier, but not for awhile. You are a great lady and I love your channel 🥰
Your loss is felt by so many of your virtual fiber friends. Be kind to yourself and love on your family. Thank you for finding time to share with us! (Your Knotty Knittress tee makes me smile😊)
I’m so sorry for your loss. Massive understatement but grief is hard. All you can do is let yourself feel it and keep going one step at a time. Take good care of yourself ❤
Chevas, So sorry to hear about your Dad. It took me ten years of mourning my Dad before I realized he would not have wanted me to stop living my life which, is what I was doing. I'm glad you have Dan, close family and friends. I'm glad to see you today. I laughed out loud with the Uncle Tim flattened lizard cross stitch. He did a great job. He's got a great sense of humor picking out projects! Take care. Hugs. ❤
Oohhh Chevy, I’m so sorry to hear you lost your dad. I wish I could say it gets better, but I can say it gets easier with time. You’ll always miss him. Remembering the good times & love will lighten your heartache. You were blessed to have a great dad. On a happier note: You just can’t make that shit up about the lizard. 😂 Too good! I’m glad to see you’re still rocking your nails. ❤️
Hello from Belgium, in Europe I also feel good when we have a moment like together For your itchy wool with those beautiful colors, I see a short vest sleeveless to wear up a sweat, a winter dress... So that you can show often those wawww colors with a smile 😅 I'm happy for you about this trip, it's welkom. I send good vibes Sorry for the way I write 🤭 God bless you & take care 🙋🏽♀️, Alexandra 🌄
The lizard cross stitch made me smile. :-) Thanks for that. :-) So sorry for your loss, but glad you were able to share your experiences with grief. I'm sure that is a help, not only for you but for others. We all have to work through it at some point in our lives. Take care of yourself. Hugs.
Chevy, thanks for being so open and honest. May your dad's memory be a blessing. Be extra kind to yourself this season. Love having you back and you can be a "Debby downer" any time on here without the need to apologize!
So sorry for your loss. Dads have a special bond to daughters. Take care of yourself, time helps. I can tell you were missing a zip in your step, it will come back, crafting helps. Much love.
Toots, I have thought about you ever since I heard about your dad. I just want to wrap you, Mama Jean and your brother in a big hug. Losing a parent can feel like someone yanked your roots out of the ground. But those roots are still there, grounded in the lessons, laughter and love you got from your dad. Keep him close to you through stories and laughter and he will never truly be gone.
No matter your age or your parents age when they pass, you still feel the grief. My mother passed many years ago and my Dad last June 4, we all process in different ways and different pace, some days better than others. Remember to be kind to yourself and cherish the good memories.
Hiya chevas. I knew from the second you appeared that something was wrong. Grieve as much as you can as often as you can. Its a tricky path but your heart and soul will give you clues. My parents passed nearly 20 yrs ago. Life has not been the same since. You will rise, trust me. Sending you boatloads of love.
I would never fast forward you. I think of you as a good friend that just invited me over for a visit, and I have always enjoyed your company. I wish I could give you a hug, I know the pain of loss way too well. I hope you will find your way back to living without the depression and isolation soon, you are so loved and appreciated here on YT.
I am so glad to hear you say that talking to us helped you feel better. Take whatever time you need. True friends are just happy to see you back...no matter how long it's been. Take care Chevas! Hugs.
Big giant virtual hugs to you and your family! Thanks for keeping it real….. more people need to show that side of life. My parents and in-laws are both aging and ailing, and I count my self very lucky to have had them around for this long.
It's SO good to see you! I'm sorry for your loss. Did you call that pill, your happy pill? I called my neurologist and asked for an "I don't give a shit pill"". The whole office laughs when I'm in. Visits are fewer now, once a year, YEEEEHHHAAAAW. Anxiety, IMHO, might be one of the worst. Not going to get me though. Remember me? That outspoken, old bwitch the commented all the time. I've backed things off a ton! (actually been in kind of hiding, no going to shop as I run into people. have to answer questions then there are those thinking I'm wanting pitty) NOPE just a quiet fun times. You're one awesome Lady, Loved by loads of us. Do What you need to, we'll be here when you're ready AND when you need us. Love you❤
My heart goes out to you, Chevis, be what you need to be and feel what you need to feel. Know that we ALL support you. I’ve been there. ❤️❤️❤️to all your family.
Chevyrell, I am so sorry to hear about you Dad. I know it is very hard. You are strong and will be okay as your Dad wants you to be. Give yourself grace and time. Thanks for doing this video. It was great!😊
Thank you for sharing your experience with loss and grief. You are so right that we do not have these kinds of conversations as much as we should. Please take good care of yourself. 💗
Sending you healing vibes. Losing a parent is the worst pain I've encountered myself, it becomes bearable in time, but like you said we each heal our own way. May you find yourself happy days through all of this. Glad to see you are smiling today.
So sorry to hear of your Dads pa passing. Grief is a slow process and as my father used to say… time takes time. Take all the time you need. Those special moments live on in your heart. Embrace and cherish each one. Hugs and love to you dear Chevy❤
Chevas, thank you for opening up. My depression is finally in remission after a 6 year battle with it. Triggered by the loss of my 20 year old daughter. It took me 4 years to reach out for help, so cheers to you for knowing what you need to do along your journey. Hugs to you and your entire family. Take your time with your grief, it will be what it needs to be.
I am so sorry for your loss! 😢 my heart dropped when I heard you say it, as I lost my dad a year ago today. I love all you share. Your podcast fills my cup when I watch you. And allows me mi h knitting time. Hugs, friend! 🥰
Sending you all the love😘I am just happy to see you back. Taking care of you is the most important thing! Life without my daddy has been the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Not a day goes by that I don’t miss him and his wisdom. Take care of yourself. You are loved.
So sorry to hear about your father. Losing a parent is hard. Never apologize for taking the time to take care of yourself. We appreciate any time that you can give to us. On an up note, your nails look fabulous!
My heart goes out to you for the loss of your Dad. Loma Linda's - oh I know the place. I make it back there every now and again. Take good care of yourself in the days ahead, grief is not fleeting, though it does reflect how much love you shared. Hugs to you, my NW Ohio compatriot ~
Dear Chevy, I send you a warm hug full of love. Sorry for your loss. Loved the episodes where your family took part. Thank you for talking about depression! I have a loved one who struggles with this too and it's still something, people don't want to talk about.
Hi Chevis, I’m so sorry about your dad. No need to apologize for anything. My solace has been remembering the good times that we spent together, pictures and memories bring me joy, too. I will miss him until the day I pass, so I don’t think it gets easier but we do adjust. Stay well and be safe. 😊🧶🫶
Chevas, so sad about your Dad. That mental fog will hang about for a while, a safeguard for your psychic self. The knitting will come back once you can concentrate. I was so proud of you being able to tell us with no tears as i would not have been able to do that for several months after my Mom died. Mamma Jean must be lost without your Dad. Those CEU’s are great for being able to do other things while listening to them, glad you were able to concentrate well enough to complete them. Glad you came back to the fold and share with us. Thanks.
So very sorry to hear about your dad. Toughest thing I've ever been through, losing my parents. Good thoughts going your way. Your yarn you spun is just gorgeous! And that Yarmalada is awesome!! Cant wait to see your wood fairy creation!
Sending you hugs. Grief is so hard and it never truly ends. I'm grateful that you're willing to talk about mental health and that you allowed yourself the space you needed to start healing.
Sending you all the hugs. I'm glad you are able to recognise what you need for your mental health. Take very good care and it's great to see you, when you want to be here again. xx
There are never words except I am SO sorry! I believe that each of us humans is born with a heart held (or sub conscious) belief that Mom and Dad will ALWAYS be there! My heart goes out to you and your family. Keeping all of you in my heart. Each of us carries grief in our own ways and never apologize! I understand the not knitting. When my mom died, I didn't knit for months.
Chevy, am so so sorry to learn about the passing of your Dad. I can relate to the tough and sad times that you have been going through. Next week with Clint will be wonderful for you, even though there will be moments when the tears will flow, but talking through the memories together will bring a further sense of healing from grief in this time of sorrow, as there will be many moments of joy and laughter too xx
Sorry you lost your Dad; mine passed about a week before yours, and my grandmother is currently on palliative care in the hospital. Knitting is the only thing keeping me going right now. It is so important to have an outlet. Love and hugs. It was good to see you back.
Oh man! Double whammy😖 I’m sorry. Not gonna lie, I have irrational thoughts regarding losing someone else now. Like I’m scared another shoe’s is gonna drop🙈
Sorry to hear about your father. My mom pass away in 2015 and felt overwhelmed with sadness. sending prays to your family. I remember that I did buy couple of skeins of yarn which I have used over the years.
Chevas, I am so sorry about your father. I always enjoyed the times that he was on your vlog. Condolences to you, Mama Jean (gotta love her...), and to the rest of your family.
Hi Chevy, I don't ever post UA-cam comments but I felt moved to after watching the beginning of this episode. I hadn't been to your channel in a bit and decided to catch up on your content while knitting on what I have named my grief blanket. After watching Ep 82 I immediately went to this one. I grabbed my drank, got resituated in the couch and went back to knitting. This grief blanket is because I lost my father this year as well and needed something big to help me through it. I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you are doing okay on your healing journey. It takes a while for the pain to become less acute, and it never goes away. Grief is a reminder of how much we loved and cared. Take care, and thank you for being you.
Awww…..thank you so much! It rocked my world pretty hard but think i grieved in a healthy way. The turkey day was hard and not looking forward yo xmas.
So sorry to hear about your Dad. I know the funk you are in and know the pain. I was Daddy's little girl, and at my ripe old age of 66 it still pains me after 10 years. I suffer with depression and anxiety as well and it really takes it's toll doesn't it! Hugs to you!
I lost my mom a week before Thanksgiving in 2021, it is hard. Know that grief will always be there, but you learn how to cope with it over time. It just takes time and don't cheat yourself the time you need.
Sorry to hear about your dad. Hugs. Maybe you could make boot toppers with the Icelandic after you spin it. Another idea is to knit the soles of slippers with it and have a layer of sheepskin that touches the bottom of your foot.
You've been in my thoughts and prayers and it is so good to see you again. I am glad you put your mental health first. Grief is unique and so unpredictable in how it affects us for the long-term.
I'm so sorry for your loss😢 I lost my Dad in March of 2022 and it definitely sucks. It takes time to walk through all the feelings and it's OK to take the time you need. Thanks for sharing you and you should never apologize for doing what you need to do.
😢 I am so sorry to hear of your dad's passing .. and also so happy to see your sweet face .. I am sure your dad will be so pleased to see you pressing on with life and sharing your love of all the things .. bless you !!
Girl, I felt that so hard. Lost my dad 6 years ago & still miss him terribly. Nothing can prepare you for it. Highly recommend remembering the funny/good things from your time with him. Our family is full of “nuts” so there’s a lot that makes me laugh as random memories cross my mind. Sending you lots of 💜💜💜. The Shit Show/Hot Mess Express is always the highlight of my day. You bring us joy and make us feel good by sharing your makes. Glad we can return the favor🥰 Hang in there. We’re behind you 💯!
Good to see you back. You already know I totally empathize. Took me years to get out of the “fog”. Hope things are easier for you. Still here if you ever need me. ❤❤❤
I'm so sorry about your dad. Chevas. Huge hugs to you. The fog of grief, the lack of mojo, just feeling kind of directionless...I can relate. After losing my oldest son almost a year ago, those things are all too familiar. Be kind to yourself as you grieve. Take care of you. ❤
Chevys, so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. It is so hard to lose our parents. Major losses and especially the first major losses really are life changing and so hard. It all takes time and can be pretty overwhelming. Take care of yourself and thanks for sharing a bit of your struggle. I lost my parents and my father-in-law within a 22 month span when I was in my early thirties. it was a very difficult time. I will be thinking of you and your family and wishing you healing time. 💕💕💕💕💕
Sending you serious hugs. Losing your parents is never easy. Even when you know it is coming. Give yourself the time and whatever help you need to get your feet beneath you. Prayers and hugs for your mother and the rest of your family as well.
I’m so sorry for your loss!!! I’m also a person that has struggled with major depression. I always stay on top of my mental health!! It’s an up and down battle. Take care of yourself! Prayers for you and your family!
Omg you strung the split minis!! You are a freaking genius. Not even saying anything about the ball sacks (WTF!). Sorry about your dad…loosing dads are really a big deal.
Sending hugs and love to you. You’ve made my heart very happy with your sharing of depression. I’ve been in a fog and you’ve helped to clear it. Keep smiling. You don’t know how much you mean to us 💜
Oh Chevas, I'm so sorry for your loss. I have lost my father 10 years ago this December and it still gets to me sometimes. But I make a habit of turning up the volume when one of his favourite songs plays on the radio or raise a glass to him, whenever fun memories come up. Glad, you're taking good care of yourself and it's so good to see you cheerful around your fibre. Your stuff-room has been a safe haven for me throughout the years whenever I've felt bad, so I hope that it helps you heal as well. Sending you a big hug from across the pond! N.
I think you are right it's not talked about enough, and people make the assumption that if people who are "happy" and bubbly can never be anxious or depressed as well and the two are not mutually exclusive. You just do what you need to do and we will still be here. It is good to see you, and I am glad you felt you could do it today. /Hugs.
I love the crochet blanket and wish I could crochet more than the basics. think I will have to learn. So sorry to hear about your father and your struggles. I have lost both my parents so I understand completely how you are feeling. Your podcast always makes me smile thank you for that.
SO good to see you again and so very sorry for you and your family. Makes one stop and reassess everything and how you relate to it when one of your parents crosses that beautiful rainbow bridge. Take your time. Hugs and love. Doily jacket. The Cinderella SHOES!!!!!Awesome. Family things are always fun. Steam your Icelandic wool a bit and it could puff up a bit.
Gurl, we get it. Hugs
So sorry about your Dad. Losing a parent really changes you. Take whatever time you need to adjust.
Thank you for making the headspace to come chat with us. Thank you for talking about grief and mental health. ❤
So sorry for your loss! lost my dad 14 years ago and still miss him everyday. You always bring so much joy and I am happy that you feel well enough to podcast! Take care!

Sorry for the way I write 🤭

No matter your age or your parents age when they pass, you still feel the grief. My mother passed many years ago and my Dad last June 4, we all process in different ways and different pace, some days better than others. Remember to be kind to yourself and cherish the good memories.

Awww…..thank you so much! It rocked my world pretty hard but think i grieved in a healthy way. The turkey day was hard and not looking forward yo xmas.
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your honesty on mental health and so excited to hear about your float trip!
So sorry to hear about your Dad. I know the funk you are in and know the pain. I was Daddy's little girl, and at my ripe old age of 66 it still pains me after 10 years. I suffer with depression and anxiety as well and it really takes it's toll doesn't it! Hugs to you!
I lost my mom a week before Thanksgiving in 2021, it is hard. Know that grief will always be there, but you learn how to cope with it over time. It just takes time and don't cheat yourself the time you need.
I am sorry for the loss of your dad.
I always look forward to watching your energy filled episodes and keeping it real.
Sorry to hear about your dad. Hugs. Maybe you could make boot toppers with the Icelandic after you spin it. Another idea is to knit the soles of slippers with it and have a layer of sheepskin that touches the bottom of your foot.
I'm glad you're coming out of the dark place. I've been there. I hope Mama Jean and the rest of you family are doing OK. Loss is so hard.
You've been in my thoughts and prayers and it is so good to see you again. I am glad you put your mental health first. Grief is unique and so unpredictable in how it affects us for the long-term.
Chev - so sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. Yarny hugs and condolences from NY.
I'm so sorry for your loss😢 I lost my Dad in March of 2022 and it definitely sucks. It takes time to walk through all the feelings and it's OK to take the time you need. Thanks for sharing you and you should never apologize for doing what you need to do.
Hugs Chevas. I can relate to all the things you said. When my depression is at its worst, I can be fully functional as well.
😢 I am so sorry to hear of your dad's passing .. and also so happy to see your sweet face .. I am sure your dad will be so pleased to see you pressing on with life and sharing your love of all the things .. bless you !!
He loved that I did the podcast and he always enjoyed being part of it💜
I don’t have anything to say that hasn’t already been said, so I’m just sending you a big 60-second hug and lots of love. 🤗🤗🤗
Girl, I felt that so hard. Lost my dad 6 years ago & still miss him terribly. Nothing can prepare you for it. Highly recommend remembering the funny/good things from your time with him. Our family is full of “nuts” so there’s a lot that makes me laugh as random memories cross my mind. Sending you lots of 💜💜💜.
The Shit Show/Hot Mess Express is always the highlight of my day. You bring us joy and make us feel good by sharing your makes. Glad we can return the favor🥰 Hang in there. We’re behind you 💯!
Good to see you back. You already know I totally empathize. Took me years to get out of the “fog”. Hope things are easier for you. Still here if you ever need me. ❤❤❤
I'm so sorry about your dad. Chevas. Huge hugs to you. The fog of grief, the lack of mojo, just feeling kind of directionless...I can relate. After losing my oldest son almost a year ago, those things are all too familiar. Be kind to yourself as you grieve. Take care of you. ❤
Ugh….yea to all those things! 😞
Chevys, so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. It is so hard to lose our parents. Major losses and especially the first major losses really are life changing and so hard. It all takes time and can be pretty overwhelming. Take care of yourself and thanks for sharing a bit of your struggle. I lost my parents and my father-in-law within a 22 month span when I was in my early thirties. it was a very difficult time. I will be thinking of you and your family and wishing you healing time. 💕💕💕💕💕
Prayers sent for you and your family. Loss is so hard. Take care of you❤️Hugs❤️❤️
Sending healing hugs and positive energy. Sorry for the loss of your dad.
Sending you serious hugs. Losing your parents is never easy. Even when you know it is coming.
Give yourself the time and whatever help you need to get your feet beneath you.
Prayers and hugs for your mother and the rest of your family as well.
I’m so sorry for your loss!!! I’m also a person that has struggled with major depression. I always stay on top of my mental health!! It’s an up and down battle. Take care of yourself! Prayers for you and your family!
Omg you strung the split minis!! You are a freaking genius. Not even saying anything about the ball sacks (WTF!). Sorry about your dad…loosing dads are really a big deal.
Sending you healing thoughts to settle into this change in your universe with peace, love and ease.
Sending hugs and love to you. You’ve made my heart very happy with your sharing of depression. I’ve been in a fog and you’ve helped to clear it. Keep smiling. You don’t know how much you mean to us 💜
I want to reach through the screen and give you a big hug! I'm glad you have taken the time you need to process. ❤
I'm so sorry about your dad. So happy that you smiled when you talked about him.
Oh Chevas, I'm so sorry for your loss. I have lost my father 10 years ago this December and it still gets to me sometimes. But I make a habit of turning up the volume when one of his favourite songs plays on the radio or raise a glass to him, whenever fun memories come up. Glad, you're taking good care of yourself and it's so good to see you cheerful around your fibre. Your stuff-room has been a safe haven for me throughout the years whenever I've felt bad, so I hope that it helps you heal as well. Sending you a big hug from across the pond! N.
💜💜💜 i will ALWAYS do this
I think you are right it's not talked about enough, and people make the assumption that if people who are "happy" and bubbly can never be anxious or depressed as well and the two are not mutually exclusive. You just do what you need to do and we will still be here. It is good to see you, and I am glad you felt you could do it today. /Hugs.
So sorry for your loss. It is tough to loose a parent and we are never prepared.
I love the crochet blanket and wish I could crochet more than the basics. think I will have to learn. So sorry to hear about your father and your struggles. I have lost both my parents so I understand completely how you are feeling. Your podcast always makes me smile thank you for that.
So sorry to hear of your father's passing, you take all the time you need to heal. Sending you lots of love ❤️
No need for apologies. Big Hugs and positive energy coming your way.
So very sorry for your loss…..you’re in my thoughts & prayers!
Wow💔💔😭so sorry about your loss. And condolences to your whole family. Really
SO good to see you again and so very sorry for you and your family. Makes one stop and reassess everything and how you relate to it when one of your parents crosses that beautiful rainbow bridge. Take your time. Hugs and love.
Doily jacket. The Cinderella SHOES!!!!!Awesome. Family things are always fun.
Steam your Icelandic wool a bit and it could puff up a bit.
Ooh….I’ve never heard of the steam trick🙌
It's so good to see you here. All the love to you and your family. 💜
So sorry to hear about your Dad's passing. Keep your head up. Great job working on yourself at this time. It is hard you are close to.🙏
