I love to crochet, tunisian crochet, loom knit, using a circular knitting machine and shop for yarn.

Tiffany Hansen yea so true.  The issue comes up with sleeves too.  I think it's why I usually only like to make a pattern once unless it's something I was able to do easily and came out nice.  I'm getting better with sleeves.

Thanks, yes I couldn't find it. I looked at your video with the sleepy bear and that helped and then I looked up how to do smiles.  The French knot for the 1st eye came out really nice and then I messed up his 2nd eye...oops

Laurel Peterson nice, very pretty. I love that colorway and how that yarn works up.  It's so soft after I wash and dry it. I know some people don't like Red heart super saver but I like it and use it.

Beautiful!! I love how those shells look and it looks lovely with that yarn how it changes color.  Have fun at the wedding.  What yarn did you use please?  thanks

yes I really like mine too.  I've used them a few times, to block all the squares for a large afghan and they haven't had any damage from the pins or steam / water.

I use blocking mats, that's what I would recommend. I really like mine and I also steam block.  These mats don't take up alot of space and you can put them together as many as you need for the size project that you have.  I haven't blocked any blankets with them though.  I like that I can put them away into a plastic clear zip bag and they come with the pins.  I also bought separate nicer blocking pins but I haven't used them yet.  Here is the link on Amazon to the set I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01FVI1IGK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Beautiful, very pretty.  I think it's nice of you to show the behind the scenes pics to folks since I think many people don't know all the work that is put in to make tutorials and a CAL, plus design the whole project and provide kits.  When I get a chance I will try to post pics of the squares for the CAL that I have completed so far (squares 1 -3 and 6, I'm working on 4 and 5 I think).
