    The Afghan sounds like a wonderful idea. I love the asymmetrical square. Crystal has some wonderful patterns doesn’t she?❤
    And the bear is just perfect! Your children are very talented with their drawings.
    Always fun hanging out with you!

      Thank you so much! Creativity runs in the family, and it's such a joy. YES, Crystal does such wonderful work! She is so generous with her talents and time! Always good to hear from you, my "neighbor"! 💗💗

    Love hearing about your projects, and thanks for sharing your mistakes too. We’ve all made them😊I count my stitches a lot more now than when I first learned to crochet. The bear is adorable and you did a great job with the helmet and jacket! - Melissa

      Thank you so much, Ms. Melissa! Frogging is just a part of life - it's like weeding the garden ☺ You brought a smile to my face reading your comment - I appreciate you! 💗💗

    Hi Mary! 👋
    I love your hats! And the bear is so cute! The otter will be equally cute too! ❤

      Thank you, sweet Ella! It's always so fun to hear from you!

    Oh my gosh! ❤❤❤ I'm so, so flattered and excited for the shout out. 😊 You, Mary, are the best! I've had a solitary, lonely day and you lifted me right up! Thank you! Did you intentionally do fisherman's wool because you're making an otter? Gosh. I'm beside myself. I've never ordered from Herschner's; Michael's Craftsmart Value (Now Loops & Threads Soft Classic) is my all-time favorite worsted acrylic. I hope you have the most lovely evening 🤗

      Oh, dear heart! I'm so glad I could make you smile! 💓💓 The choice of fisherman's wool was completely unintentional 😆 Thanks for pointing that out! You know, I've never worked with Michael's Craftsmart / Soft Classic - the nearest store is a ways from me. But I'll have to jump onto their site and check it out! Thanks for the recommendation! 🥰💞💞

    The bear is so cute. Those hats look great on you. I’ve only ever ordered cotton yarn from Herrshners. It happened to be on clearance sale, and I wanted to make some summer tops. It was a little bit splitty. I hear their shipping is slow because they get so many orders. Personally when I make blanket I like to use yarn that’s on sale. Something that large gets pricey quickly.

      Thank you for sharing your experience with me! I really appreciate it! You made a great point about how costly blankets can become. I'll have to watch out for sales! I've become accustomed to some yarn shops' sale cycles. I'm sure Herrschner's has a pattern, too, if I look for it. Thanks again! 💗💓

    Hi, such a lovely channel. Your bear and otter are so cute. That's a good idea to get the Pic Pau book out the library. I need to check and see if the library here has it greetings from Colleen, Cape Town, SA

      Thank you so much, Ms. Colleen! Amazing to meet you from so far away! My library did not have this book initially, but they always seem happy to take our requests, so hopefully yours will be the same! Hugs from across the world! 💞💞

    I love the Wojtek/Buddy Bear you made! I never knew about this bit of history. I feel like I always learn something new from watching your videos, whether crochet-related or otherwise. It's great! 😊

      Ah, the teacher tendencies are hard to turn off 😂 I'm so glad I could introduce you to that little piece of history, and I'm so thankful you're part of my life! You are so encouraging! 💙💙

      For good reason, it seems! Hard to be a repeat customer when you're not happy with the results! Your enthusiasm highly recommends them to me! ❤💌
