    'Hoochie' clothes.....you CRACK ME UP!!!! Your channel popped up for me to see today for the 1st time ever and I loved this episode! You are funny, transparent, not afraid to show your weaknesses and that business about Schitt's Creek'....LOOOL HAAHA LOL. I've liked and sub'd now excuse me while I go off and marathon some of your shows. Btw, I am determined this year to learn amigurumi....have bought the supplies and watched a train load of vids on the subject and am excited. Took me 3 years to learn simple crochet but learning has always been a huge struggle for me. At 76 I have overcome a lot of things in life and amigurumi is going to be one of them!! Tfs😀

      Thank you soooooo much and I’m so glad you found me! ♥️ I just love amigurumi, there is definitely a learning curve, but if you can do simple crochet, you can do this. Don’t let the magic ring or circle stop you. There are ways around it. Feel free to reach out if you need help or ideas for great easy patterns to start with. A lot of people try foods first. Most are round with very little sewing. So glad you’re here! ☺️♥️♥️

    You had me at you and grandma, I was like that with my maw-maw. I'm in TX too. Listen, I'm making the kraken in Lapp's other book and the amount of 'this makes no sense' and 'I wish there was a picture' is real. Then I went to look at Lapp's YT for a stitch instruction and found that equally confusing. Been crocheting for years, imho this book could have been much better. Not disputing her talent or creativity and I'm grateful to have the bones, as it were, to make what I imagine. I adore everything about your impkin.

      Hi fellow Texan! Yes, her patterns are amazing but hard, for no good reason in my opinion. I heard, she does some the stitches she does because she has a certain “vision/look” she is trying to achieve…but man…I’m ok with an average simpler version. Thank you for being here. ❤️❤️

    Your impkin and butterfly are so cute. As for the skip stitch to make a decrease, I've seen that done on a Frida Kahlo amigurumi YT video. Instead of doing a decrease, the designer skipped a stitch to decrease instead. Different, I thought. Tried it. Didn't like it. Left holes. Stickin with the invisible decrease.

      Awe, Sister! 💕🥰 You always make me smile! ♥️♥️ It surprises me in the least that my twinsie also has this book because…twins…duh!! 😂 If I were you, I’d search for a free unicorn pattern that looks similar then print it out, tape it inside the book and make it look like you’re using the book. Then, walla…easy, beautiful unicorn technically from the book. That is legible, lovely and won’t cause you to say magical words that start with schitts creek. 😂🤣♥️ Wishing you a beautiful day! 🌈🦄

    Awwww man I was cheering for the Unicorn book bec hubby had picked it out but every book cant be a winner and he tried. Thats wat matters. I think Tulip is the cutest thing ever and I was laughing so hard wen u were telling the story of how she came to be. Lol. As someone who doesnt always follow the pattern bec sometimes its just too much and too many steps to get the same result, or close enuff for me, by doing it my way. And i got some of the Schitts Creek yarn during the black friday sale. I wasnt sure how i would feel because i had never felt it in person but its pretty good for amigurumi and Im currently doing the Jam Jar CAL from Opelia Talks w my daughter using some of it now and its working up great.

      I’m so glad to hear that you’re enjoying the Schitts Creek. This makes me feel better. I’m so glad I can make you smile and tell hubby, that the book is special just because he thought of you. I know he would love it if you made him a rainbow bookmark. 😁☺️♥️🌈 And my sweet hoochie girl, she is truly a show stopper.🤷🏻‍♀️🤣 Have a great weekend!

      Yes!!! Go bite the bullet. It is a great book. Just know that body in the book is wacky. If you do the sitting body, follow the top half of Julie’s pattern. And know wherever you see chain 1…don’t do it. Keep going in a spiral and you will be fine. Have fun!♥️♥️

And you did that because you cared about him and his wallet. That is love! ♥️♥️I love my Zach too…thankfully, he has accepted that I’m mathematically challenged. He’s learned to not mention it or the purchases I screw up…a lot. Obviously, he’s well trained in the areas of “don’t cross a hooker (crocheter☺️)”. I’m sure your honey is well on his way, he just might need some sunglasses to hide the stink eye. 😎😂🤣♥️♥️

I’m officially in the phase of life where I argue with people who I know are right, but hoping I can confuse them enough or exhaust them with my own stupidity, that I end up winning because they are tired of me. 👵🏻 🤣♥️

    Tulip is CUTE! She looks like she would be right at home on Planet Nahfalafagus, or quite frankly, any other Moriah landskape where the rainbows are always in the correct order 🌈😂 The stonewashed really is a wonderful yarn for amigurumi.
    And Carl looks great with his retro stripes hearts (I love the retro stripes 😍).
    Shitts Creek!! What a great show, loved it. Looking forward to what you make with the yarn.
    Well, I'm off to watch Moriah's latest video (I have to wait until 10pm on a Friday to watch it!). That's shows my love for ME to stay up that late at my age...🙃

It is so pretty and it works up so well. I have company this weekend but tomorrow Katie and I will be heavy Moriah mode. I saw there’s a new shirt. I’m pretty sure my merch child will want it added to the collection or obsession….not sure which is the proper term. Sending warm hugs!! ♥️♥️♥️

    Hi Cindy! 👋 Thank you so much for trying out my pattern, that totally made my day seeing Tulip! You did a great job on her even if she is a bit scantily clad 😂 I love all the extra bits you added! I really love your butterfly and that's so sweet you named her for your grandma ❤ I have seen the skipped stitches in patterns before too and I just ignore it and do an invisible decrease instead. I don't understand why designers do that, but maybe that is the way in other countries. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I really like hearing your opinions on books. I've been trying hard to figure out which books are AI on Amazon now too. I've not tried any of that yarn before. I really want to try to skein tones one day though because I know I have a hard time finding skin and hair colors in regular yarns. Always look forward to watching your videos! 🤗🥰

Since you and I like much of the same stuff, I like being able to save you time and money, so that you can do more cute things. Wishing you a wonderful weekend!! 😁💕🌈
