    Hi Cherie! Thank you for explaining how to use Stitch Dictionaries❣ I have a couple of them but I haven't really used them much. Now that I've seen your video, I'm going to utilize them more in my crochet pattern designs. I love the design of your scarf and blanket too!!!❤ By the way, I do know about Vanna White and how she loves to crochet. I have one of her blanket pattern books also. In addition, I've also purchased her yarn. Also, in the future, could you kindly make a video about how to read crochet diagrams? I've been avoiding them for years and I haven't really made an effort to try it out. I think that I'm ready now.😅 Thank you again for sharing your experience and knowledge with the Crochet Community!!!

    THIS is the Podcast that I needed in my life. There isn't enough informative podcasts/RUclipsrs for my brain on many of these topics in the fibre world, (especially on standards and these more detail oriented parts of the fibre communities, whether knit or crochet.) I need more! I appreciate you, your knowledge, and the attention to detail so much! I really hope this series continues for as long as possible, I'll definitely keep coming back for more. This style of educational information is so good for working on projects. I adore the way you present your information, you keep my brain engaged. I also found and appreciate the historical information you gave on the metric system and how it was attempted to be incorporated, and standard abbreviation past, etc. so interesting! <3 Cheers and much love! -S. <3

I am currently working on moving most of my business off etsy iand into my own website which I hope to be able to launch within the next coming weeks. I have been crocheting and selling my little critters for a few years but due to so many requests for a long time now, it is time I start putting my patterns out there aswell, which is so much fun and exciting but also so very scary!

I got a little concerned for him when he mentioned his concern about yarn being everywhere and you having so many wips!!!😂The camping looked like it was fun, but I'm not really a camping person. IF I ever considered camping, it would have to definitely be Glamping!😃 In addition, I enjoyed watching you teach your daughter-in-law and her sister how to crochet. They did an excellent job.
