    I love the generosity of Evan and Katelyn (obviously running the fundraiser as well as donating $3000 of their personal money) offering to lend Maya their supplies for any craft that they have stuff for and Maya shows interest in. This absolutely needs to be a recurring collab since they get along so well, are super fun to watch together, seem to have a lot of fun together, Maya has a lot of crafts she wants to try to learn, and if they need an excuse to collab again they can run another fundraiser. 💜

    So I was actually spinning yarn while watching this for my craft activity. And speaking of yarn spinning Maya can send the wolfdogs' fur off to someone like nine lives twine and have yarn made of their fur that could be auctioned off for a future fundraiser.

    I love this collab! Maya should totally come to your shop and make name tags, thank you signs. Also imagine making a Alveus theme resin molds (like keychain or figurines etc), and then you could have a stream picking colors and pouring them. Afterwards you can put them up on your website as a limited edition drop with some or most of the profits going back to the sanctuary! 😊

    First of all, I crocheted through this whole video, tho that isn’t my only craft. Second, I love the interview vibe that Evan was giving this whole time, and the bonding with a new friend vibe Katelyn had. It was wonderful to see a new friend on the channel and so fantastic to learn about another animal rescue and sanctuary to add to my list of places to support. ❤ LMK if you ever want a fiber-arts tutorial.

    Watching this on yt bc my internet HATES livestreams for whatever reason. Working on felting some of my friends' pets and going to send them out to them when done. :]
    Also I've found the yarn trick works really well for getting thin legs and tails!
    >Measure a piece of yarn double the length of the leg or tail and then add a few centimeters or so to that before cutting.
    >Then fold the piece in half and felt it together starting at the fold and go until you get to the length you want and leave the rest unfelted. If you want it to be thicker you can add more strands of yarn on.
    >The unfelted ends can be used to help anchor the legs to the body and you can build up with more wool to get the shape right
    With quadrupeds it's not too difficult to get these legs firm enough to support the weight of the body. Also if the yarn is in the color you want for other parts of the body it's pretty easy to pull it apart and fluff it up to be usable as loose wool. I find Lion Brand Wool Ease yarns come in nice colors and felt really nice even though they're technically a wool blend and not 100% wool
