Hello Teresa, I just saw the bulky yarn you bought, it looks lovely. It will be super soft but also pill super easy due to the construction as a single ply and the low amount of twist added. I wouldn't use it for anything that has to endure friction, a beanie should be fine. I would either get another skein of it or another single ply with similar wraps per inch (thickness) since the yardage seems pretty low and depending on the pattern you probably will need more. And thank you for all your videos, it is always a pleasure to see your beautiful stitching, crochet and crafting.
When I walked over the line from stitcher to stitcher/flosstuber I believed I would maintain my modest stitching where I could show every project every video. Six months later I am starting everything, joining all the SALs and checking Etsy to see who has sent me a coupon because we all know coupons must be used to respect the designers. I now know why you have so many beautiful projects and say hi five. You are awesome.
I need to stop watching Flosstube. I get in trouble every time. Now I want to get the Stitching Gnomes. And thanks to you I got the Family Farm Afghan. After seeing your progress I want to get mine started. Always enjoy watching your videos.
i love the progress on all of your wips and am very impressed with your Chatelaine. What a fun idea to have friends stitch a bit on it for you. It makes it even more special. Thanks so much for sharing with us! I enjoy watching all of your videos.
Your Stitching is beautiful. You are a lot more adventurous than I am where large projects are concerned. But I do appreciate all of you who work them! I enjoy your floss tube.
Glad to know you and Debra had fun; if you make your way to AZ, I'd love to meet up (I live near her)! Your Chatelaine looks lovely and so close to a finish! Looking forward to seeing more of the edges get done! Maybe have us vote on what sampler you should do?
Well...I just bought the stitching gnomes pattern and you've inspired me to get out one of three afghans I have started. I haven't worked on them in years.
I am so happy for you that all of the trees are done on the Chatelaine! You must be motivated to fly through the rest now! Ravelry is a great source for crochet as well as knit patterns. You can do a defined search, filtering what you are looking for, whether you want crochet or knit patterns, the weight of your yarn, the yardage you have, and other options. There's so many possibilities! Beware! Rabbit Hole Ahead! LOL
Yes! You can definitely do a one-color beanie with crochet! SOOO many wonderful online tutorials. My grandmother taught me to crochet years ago and I love it...I think it's much easier than knitting, especially when it comes to trouble shooting. I finished Barbara Ana"s Dancer this year and it is gorgeous! I put it on a a dark gray snow dotted linen and it is perfect. I LOVE Barbara Ana. Your projects are beautiful.
Lovely update on your stitching . You said you didn’t do much shopping but you enabled me with the stands for tiny town series. I see all those items available in USA but as you said shipping crazy. Many thanks, hope your renovation goes well.
When my grandmother taught me to crochet, I remember the main thing she kept stressing to me was to NOT read ahead in the actual instructions of the pattern. She said to do one part at a time, and everything will reveal itself and make more sense when you get to those steps that seemed confusing. So, I would still give those easter baskets a go, but take it in bite-sized steps!
Your Evening in the Park is stunning. All your stitching is amazing. Good luck with the remodel. I would welcome rain as we are in the middle of a blizzard in the Sierra Nevada mountains. I take that back if we get rain on a 20+ft snow pack we would have flooding. Have a great month ❤
Teresa your Chatelaine is eye watering, so beautiful. Hope the flooring goes well, we are having several rooms decorated this month so it’s protecting the stitching as much as possible!! Dust knows no boundaries! Looking forward to your next vlog x
I rarely buy patterns or fabric, but I’ve gotten 3 loads of pass the stash recently and despite picking what I want carefully and passing the rest on, it feels like my stash has doubled. I’ve finished 5 projects this year (3 small, 2 medium), started 3 and feel like I’m drowning in choices despite having less things to pick from. Only 19 wips, only 3/19 are larges, everything is 2016 or newer for a start (4 were started before 2023 so I’m doing reasonably well at finishing things. My secret is saying no to all the sals, and for HAED size pieces I love, finding the art as a jigsaw puzzle…much faster. Speaking of HAEDs, time to get back to filling in confetti.
oh my gorgeous tipple buddy! Yes we need to arrange a visit when it is warm and sunny for me to soak up some of your lovely vitamin D over there. Is there such a thing as bland mexican lol. I really miss you!!! I see you have some new furry little buddies that are keeping you busy and entertained. We will have to get the retired Mary to look at options in her busy schedule lol Hope you are keeping well sweetie. You know we could do a 3-way tipple zoom in the meantime xxxx ❣️
Hi Teresa Love your WIPS - you are making great progress on them. I love your Crochet - They are so pretty. Love your New Start - those Gnomes are so pretty. Have fun Decorating. Take Care & Happy Stitching ❤️🤗☕️🧵🪡🧵❤️
Great floss tube..love the gnomes. I can see Evening In the Park will be completed this year, its a beautiful piece... Enjoy your home decorating and enjoy your time off work and I look forward to seeing you next time....(Hair looks great also)
SO great to see you pop up while I was stitching. BTW - your hair looks AWESOME!!! Love the curls!!! Thanks for taking the time to post another video!!! See you again soon!!
Your work is absolutely beautiful. On that note you too enabled me and I fell down the rabbit hole and bought the sewing gnomes. I love them. Thanks Teresa
Always a treat to see a new video from you. You have made wonderful progress on your stitching. It is beautiful. Can't wait to see your next reno project!
Oh my goodness…Evening in the Park is stunning. I’m excited to see you get it finished. And you’re doing great with your crochet. You’ll be an expert in no time.
I just finished my Evening in the Park on Feb 26th. I started it because I first saw it in one of your videos. So happy I did it. Thanks for enabling me!!!
Hi Teresa, Enjoyed your updates! Tap Dancer is gorgeous, Evening in the Park is stunning and I think I have fallen in love with your farm afghan… it’s going to be fantastic when finished! Hope your decorating project goes quickly and smoothly!
3 months. I want to tell you I love watching your videos. I live in Marshall, Minnesota. I want to know how you get your stitching done. We have no one in my town that does this.😅
If you find a pattern that you want to do (for your crochet hat), the design always (should be always) tells you how much yarn you need, so before starting you can see whether you need more or not. You can (not easily) change the yarn thickness within a project, for example, the brim of the hat, but then you would have to change the number of stitches (increase or decrease) change the hook, etc, if you are just starting out in crochet don't try cos it will just be frustrating for you! Pick a pattern, in ravelry you can search for "hats" in "bulky yarn" in "crochet". See what comes up
Watching you as alternative to work… To get another yarn - use the metres or yards per 100g to get something close to the same yarn weight. Eg 65m per 100g. Then you can have something the same thickness as the lovely yarn you have. The weight name changes by country, but the length to weight does not!
You must come to AZ in early April when it’s not too hot or too cold. I would love to meet you!! The Attic is a great place for a meet up. They will treat you like a princess. Your stash is an investment in your retirement. Much cheaper now than in the future. Problem is, I am long retired and still adding to my stash😂❣️
Don't feel alone Tereasa, all crochet projects curl up. I don't know if it will work for yarn, but my solution that works for me is, when finished, I soak it in water to let the fibers relax. Then I block it and let it lay flat to dry. But I do the crochet thread, doilies and such as that. Don't know if that would work for yarn. The thread is 100% cotton.
It's funny isn't it that you'd think stitching on even weave is easier as it's 'even' and should be easy to see the holes lol. I find linen much easier and nicer to stitch on! The linen from West Green looks gorgeous - I must try some. Lovely to catch up with you xx
Love seeing your stitching / crochet for Feb! Good luck with your decorating, I hope it goes swiftly so you can get back to crafting. Quick question regarding your chatelaine… I am stitching the dragonfly Mondala and have it on Ominak Bars as well, I use a lowery stand. At the moment I am feeling claustrophobic when stitching this. Any thoughts? What’s your set up? Thanks heaps!
Ohhhhh your Chatelaine is gorgeous. Love the little wooden stands wish I could find so,etching like that in Canada. One company was 35.00 shipping for a 21.00 item. Happy stitching Patty❤
I have thought about doing an afghan but I am afraid of the back. My project backs don't look too messy but I wouldn't want anyone to see them. Do you carry threads and not have them catch on thing? Do you put a backing on them? Please explain what you do. Thanks. Love your projects and love your progress.
Hi Teresa, what do you do with your completed projects? I'm doing 2. One 14 count that will be an house-warming gift. The other, 18 count, part of a set of 5 for my great grand children. Both on Adia cloth. Cheers, Nardja from Australia 😊
Some I frame and display, some I make into flat folds and display them like that, I have given a couple away and the rest go into a drawer waiting for inspiration! Xx
Hey Teresa, the wooden cross stitch stands look interesting. Where did you find those? and what are they called. Would love to find some across the pond. Love your blog too. Keep up the good work.
The wooden stand is a needleneeds necessaire stand. I think needleneeds ships internationally but the postage might be very high. I’m afraid I don’t know if they have a US distributor. Xx
Sometimes with crochet the written instructions can be quite confusing, just type the name of the stitch into youtube and there will be loads of people demonstrating it and breaking it down and it won't be quite so intimidating
Heyy if you don’t mind me asking what do you use to record yourself I know you mentioned before you use a dlsr for your table and stitch along just wondering what do you use for your face thank you xx
@@TeresaLittleStitcher thank you just looking at making my channel abit better I use Final Cut Pro on Apple Mac for editing just wondering what you use xx

Hurrah for all the trees being done! Don’t envy you the decorating but I’m sure it will be great when it’s done. See you in a few weeks at Stansted.
