I love your work, especially your sewing box! Thanks for sharing. ❤
Thank you so much, you’re very welcome. Xxxx
Hello! That little bird is so cute!! I love it! Have a nice week end! Regards from Belgium 🇧🇪
Thank you so much xx
You know what else you could do with the sweaters? Knit straight up and do a taller collar like little hot water bottle covers 🤩
Just found you and I know I’m going to enjoy you
@@josephinetimm560 welcome. 🤗
I’m so pleased you’ve decided to join me. I hope you enjoy catching up Xx
Love your new hair cut!!! You look lovely☺️ Thank you for your posts and your sharing. I look forward to them!!
Precioso. Desde España.
Thank you for sharing your projects with us, and I love your makes and WIPS. Have an awesome weekend.
What I do for small circumference sleeves like yours is use two 16” circular needles putting half the round on each. You could watch a RUclips tutorial for knitting socks on two circs. You just knit with the ends of the same circular needle on each side. Much better than dpns. If I use dpns for such a small piece, I have 4” needles, not long ones.
I think I’m going to try the sleeves on a magic loop. Knit them plan with maybe a couple of stripes
I’d suggest magic loop, if it’s to difficult could you do plain sleeves no colourwork.
Magic loop and plain knit it is xx
Jeanette I love your hair! Regarding the little jumpers, I would do the colour work on the jumper like you've done and then go with plain sleeves. Will look lovely
Yes I think I’m going to give the sleeves a try with plain knit and on a magic loop.
Oh dear old me! Jeanette is well and truly buzzzzzing! And spring hasn’t kicked in yet! Would that be the haircut effect, I wonder? Or all these amazing things coming out of the Clegg’s beehive? Just about managed to snap up the last bag in your shop, naughty Etsy didn’t ring the warning bell 🤥🤔😨And these mushrooms cum pincushions are Amazing! Must, have to make one too! Have a lovely week ahead!
I’m sorry Etsy didn’t let you know Nathalie. I’m honestly thinking of changing to a kofi shop. Etsy are getting so so greedy that half the time it doesn’t seem worth working for, and then they don’t let you know I’ve update my shop. 😩😩 so frustrating for you.
Love your hair . You could do the sleeves of the wee jumper in plain white, maybe a stripe in the cuffs .
That’s what I’m going to try, if that fails in the bin they go…..
Thanks for explaining how to made your travel sewing case, I’ve had to order mine from Temu because Amazon in that brand is $50 Australian.
Oh wow $50 that’s a lot of money to rip apart. But on the other hand it’s going to be lovely when it’s finished I’m sure. Xx
Love the hair Jeanette, I am not a knitter but Claire who makes things (RUclips name) made all of them last year and I am sure could advise. Personally I would make plain sleeves. Good luck and thanks for the video and the fun😊
Great advise. I’ve decided to have a go with plain sleeves, it was Claire who treated me to the pattern for the advent sweaters. I love her, she’s such a talented lady. ❤️❤️
Hello again 😁 For the little sweaters, do plain sleeves? 😁
I love the haircut !!!! It suits you perfectly!!
Thank you
Hi Jeanette, Just wanted to let you know how much I love your new haircut.
Thank you Karen. It’s sooooo much easier to manage. Takes seconds to dry. Lol lol
Lovely new look...and your reading shawl is fabulous, I really love the shape of it and I would think that this allows it to sit beautifully on your shoulders. On your little Christmas Jumpers, would you consider knitting the sleeves in one colour and doing a sneaky duplicate stitch for the pattern? They are so cute and you could just have the pattern just after the cuff which would not take away from the overall effect.?? What do you think? As always, your toy makes are beautiful and the new colourway is exactly right....
I think I’m going to try the sleeves for the advent sweater in just one colour. I’ve ordered some circular needles to make them on the magic loop.
Love the hair cut. Glad you and Tim had a great time with your family.🧶💜🇦🇺🧶💜🇦🇺 Love everything you do. Western Australia 🇦🇺.
Thank you so much xxx
Dear One, I’m SOOOOOOO HAPPY TO SEE & HEAR “YOU” AGAIN❤️😘😘❤️It seems like it’s been ages & ages since your last Pod Cast, WELCOME BACK❣️❣️I have REALLY MISSED YOU & YOUR WONDERFUL POSTS❤️‼️❤️As always, You & Tim too, Stay Well, Stay Happy, & Be Safe No Matter Where You Go, Barbara (S.E. Ohio, U.S.A.)
How kind, your so sweet. I’m really pleased you enjoy our channel. Xxx
Oh Jeanette- The pincushion for Karen is just amazing. I love it so much and I am going to try and make one for myself. You showed us such beautiful things today. As always you inspire me. This was such a wonderful podcast full of enthusiasm and love for our crafting hobbies. Thank you so much . 🍄😊🍄
Thank you Martina, you will really enjoy making the pincushion and it looks so pretty on the cutting mat.
Thanks again dear Jeanette for a fun episode!! It’s so wonderful to see your excitement and enthusiasm towards your crafts 😊 I’m exactly the same!! Love your sewing case - such a nifty idea. Have a fabulous week xx
Thank you so much Elizabeth I just enjoy what I do so much. Xx
Hi Jeanette love your hair and I love your little bear too I'm looking for a large project bag to buy with my dad's inheritance so I have something practical to keep using xxx
Thank you hun, Im really happy with my hair. What a great idea to purchase something from dads inheritance that you can use on a daily basis. ❤️❤️❤️
@@craftycleggscreations I love your fabrics I'm keeping an eye out on yours xxx
Hi Jeanette, that was such an enjoyable podcast, I love it when you ask "can ya see it"? when you're holding items up to the screen....I always answer you😂. Your makes are such fun. Love the mouse you've sewn, and the jewellery box sewing case, well I love everything you've shown. Tim's very clever with the creme egg colourway yarn, LOVE it!
Thank you Hellen I’m so pleased you enjoy the video. Xx
Love the new hair cut Jeanette,makes you look younger 😊. Love all your projects, you are very inspiring. X
Thank you so much. Xx
Hello Jeanette, super episode, you’ve been so very busy with all your many makings! Love the felt owl, it’s adorable and your travelling sewing box is beautiful. Your Agatha Reading Shawl is stunning and it looks really gorgeous too. Keep cosy and take care 🧵🧶💕
Thank you so much Sarah. Xx
Hi Jeanette, so happy to see you again. You mentioned you were a subscriber of the doll club, can you tell me the name of the club so i can have a nosey round 😀. Thank you xx
Yes of course. It’s on the Toft website under doll subscriptions
The new hair style looks fabulous. I think a little gnome would be just perfect on your toadstool pin cushion.
Thank you, I must prefer my shorter hair. So much easier. Timothy suggested a gnome, great minds think alike. Lol
I love your hair Jeanette it looks lovely and easy to care for , I retired 4 years ago and I had mine cut short life is to short to be faffing about with long hair... your makes are beautiful as always , love the yarn you both dyed it is gorgeous, so glad you all had a wonderful time with your daughter , Thank you for taking the time to vlog and share your beautiful makes with us x x x x
Yes short hair is so much easier, and I totally agree life it to short to be sat in front of a mirror every other day for an hair messing with hair. Think of all that crafting time I was losing. Lol lol
Ooh Jeanette, first off..I love your hair. Second…that little bear is adorable and I can’t wait to see it finished (when you get round to it…no rush) and love the Agatha Reading Shawl! Perfect for those chilly evenings. Now I want one ha ha. Lovely podcast. Thanks.
Thank you my love. Hope you are keeping well and enjoying your daphnes dairy. Xx
Love your hair! I committed to short hair again as well. Remember for Tim’s sweater to use lots of stitch markers (beginning and end of each cable and change of stitches). It seems like overkill, but so worth it to keep the mind working properly.
Oh that’s a good idea. I really want to be able to make him the sweater but it all feels overwhelming as I’m not use to making large garments.
One row at a time! I can’t remember the pattern, but if the sleeves have cables/pattern start with a sleeve and get into the flow. Have fun! Love the box!!!
Hello Jeanette, your hair is fabulous. You have been very busy as usual with your fabulous makes. Thanks for sharing with us all x
Thank you for spending time with me xx
Your haircut is beautiful! You could do the sweater patterns -and not make the sleeves-make them into little bags -which would also be adorable.Pretty -shawl-I love the Reading shawl- I have made three. I gave 2 as gifts and kept one. I love the pattern. Your traveling sewing case is lovely
The reading shawl is so cozy, it was so cold last night I popped it on while I watched TV, kept me toasty warm.
For the Advent sweater, could you knit the sleeves the plain white color? So, don't do the color work? I think that's what I would do. I love your shawl and all of your other makes! So many cute things! 🥰 I love your hair cut too!! I like mine short best too.
I was going to suggest the same. Just do the sleeves plain!
Plain knit it is. Xx
Your shawl and mushrooms are lovely. The travel sewing case is so cute. What a great idea. Ps. Love your new hair style 🧶❤️
Thank you so much. Xx
You really suit your new hair do…..love it! Your owl is looking gorgeous and the little bear on 1.5 hook is going to be so adorable…..can’t wait to see that finished. I loved your pin cushion too.
Thank you so much xxx
The lady who is Ophelia talks has a tutorial for Agatha’s reading shawl so it’s on my hook tomorrow . I love all your projects the sewing case is adorable. Love the short hair mine is very similar. Thanks for sharing. Julie, Tasmania, Australia ❤❤
I really like my short hair, so easy to look after.
Hi Jeanette, I really like the haircut. The jewellery turned sewing box is fab, how kind of Karen to send it to you with instructions. You've been very industrious with your wips and makes, and the Cadbury's egg yarn is great xx
Yes I’m extremely lucky to have such a wonderful friend, Karen is such a lovely lady. Inside and out.
Love the hair! Could you knit the owl hood plain and duplicate stitch the patterns on? A&C sweaters, just make plain sleeves. The shawl is lovely too. That should help keep your shoulder nice and warm too.
I’ve just looked at the pattern and it calls for duplicate stitch 👍🏻
Love your hair, that’s how I would like mine but I haven’t had a haircut in two years, just grown it. But I’m fed up of it too, only problem is I hate going to the hairdressers!! Love your makes and delighted to see how you made your sewing box. I’ve started gathering bits and pieces to decorate it. Keep well, Fiona
I’m glad I’m. It the only one that dislikes the hairdressers. I honestly can not tell you why but I’d rather not go if I don’t have to. Lol lol
Love the hair, suits you very well. You can turn your sweaters into little sachet bags, and set in a bowl or on your tree. Good luck
First I’m going to try to knit them on magic loop and plain, if that doesn’t work well I think I’ll give them up. X
Love the hair! 😍 beautiful ❤ lovely projects as always! Love the crème egg yarn!! Amazing! Xx
Thanks Laura. Xx
Hi Jeanette, your hair looks fabulous! Wish I had the courage to shop mine off lol. It's really long & knots. I love your cream egg yarn! Awesome job to you and Tim for making that. And my favourite fabric with the cream egg on it is the teal. Lucky lady with the box of yarn of every colour. Wow! Mandy xxx😊
Yes I think I prefer the blue creme egg bag too. Xx
Loving your new hair cut, it really suits you xx glad you had a nice time with family hope they are all well xx
Thank you so much, I had the best time in Somerset, I do wish they were closer as I miss them all so much. Xxx
Your so clever with all the things you do , I think it marvellous that you can do it so small xx
Thank you. It does hurt my hand and shoulder after a while but I just can’t stop, I absolutely love making miniature creations.
I just love that you love everything you make. Such passion and it shows in your makes. Do the sleeves plain, they'll be great. xx
That’s just what I’m going to try ❤️❤️ Hope Pete is doing ok. Xxx
Thanks, he doing just brilliant. xx@@craftycleggscreations
Hi Jeanette, I recommend the magic loop for the sleeves. That's how I have done mine, including the sweater body. I am going to try a 9" circular for the body of the next one, though. Just to see which I prefer! If you still find you aren't enjoying the colourwork sleeve experience, then I would suggest plain sleeves. I intend to make some of mine with plain sleeves. Love all your makes and your new "do." ❤ I had mine cut short 6 months ago, and I love it. So, so much easier to look after and much more comfortable when having a "tropical moment." See you next time
Oh Julie I totally agree with the short hair and tropical moment 😂😂 I’m going to do the sleeves plain and on magic loop. I’ll let you all know how I get on. Xxx
I love the new haircut. I do the same thing with my hair. You would think we would learn after a couple of tries, that short is the way to go.
Yes I agree, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried for long hair and it never works. Lol lol
Love the hair 😍 I flippin LOVE the cream egg yarn it is gorgeous 😍 The toadstool is super cute 🥰🥰
Thank you my love. Xxxx
Isn’t that weird , my hair was like yours before you cut and then on Thursday I thought had enough and got it cut short just like yours and I love it on you beautiful must be a libra thing lol xx
Yes it must be… great minds think alike. ❤️
Waw Jeanette ‘ your hair cut is lovely you looks so good Thank you for the beautiful podcast have lovely day
Thank you so much xx
I made the Agatha reading shawl in the exact same color but longer. it's such a fantastic make. i wear mine at my desk while working
I have a spare ball of yarn and I think I’m going to add that in as it will add a little bit more length. Xx
Hi Jeanette, love your hair. Beautiful sewing projects. The mushroom is lovely. Have a great weekend.
Thank you xxx
Was so nice to see u again with your new lovely hairdo. You have been busy with all your lovely makes. Cant wait to do the owl, just got my book. Such a good match with the wool you two are very clever😊
Thank you so much for a lovely comment. Xxx
❤love ur hair short again!jeanette🎉🎉
Your sewing box is wonderful..and shawl...wow you both have been so busy!!!!yarns! Bags!
Elaine💞🏠🧦
Thank you so much lovely Elaine. Xxxxx
So good to see you again. I love your podcasts.
I love you haircut. It looks lovely.
All your makes are fantastic.
Thank you so much xx
Oh Jeanette, your hair looks amazing. I love it!! Your owl is beautiful, I'm very tempted but have sooooo many wips at the moment. I really need to take myself in hand! 😍😂🙃
Oh I totally agree, I’ve far to many wild on the go, but I’ve stopped counting. Lol lol
Advent sweaters, frog it. Since you sew, can you adjust/ create a pattern for the sweaters, then appliqué the numbers or embroider the numbers? It’s just a suggestion. Love the dolls and everything and your energy!
Some awesome Jeanette. I think I'm going to have to buy a jewellery box and that felt book!
Thank you. The book from Simone gooding is lovely. X
Gutted that even though I can’t knit I’ve missed the wool …… might there be anymore, fingers crossed 😊. Love the hair and that cabin doll x
Oh I’m sorry you missed the yarn. Well there might be more yarn coming very soon. Keep your eye’s peeled. Lol
I love your new haircut!! It is so stylish. I really like the fabrics you chose for the craft bags. The crochet along kit looks like fun. It had been warm here in Connecticut USA but this week we have had 3 snowstorms. Finally feels like winter. So happy to know your shoulder is healed. Happy Crafting.
Oh that’s weather sounds chilly sue. But I do enjoy the snow if I’m honest.
@@craftycleggscreations I like it too. Driving in it not so much.😉
Your little advent sweaters are cute, how about making the sleeves just plain I think that would still look amazing. Loving your new amigurumi doll going to be so cute . I’m just waiting for my yarn to arrive to start the 12 birds of Christmas as I really admired yours. Unfortunately I can’t quite afford the toft yarn so I’m doing them in acrylic, really looking forward to starting. Your felt bird is looking awesome and the Agatha’s reading shawl is gorgeous. The travel sewing box is amazing. Stay safe love and hugs xx
Oh Anne you will really enjoy making the Toft birds, I really had a lot of fun. It doesn’t matter what yarn you use as long as you enjoy the process. Xx
Love your hair Jeanette and your shawl is beautiful, my box has been sitting for a few weeks waiting to be decorated but I’m scared to pull it apart, you made a beautiful job of yours 😘
Just go for it, I was a little scared of pulling apart such a pretty box, but once I’d refurbished it I was thrilled.
magic loop and plain sleeves
Great minds think alike, a lot have suggested the same thing. ❤️
Hi Jeanette ,I'm loving the "new" hair! I'm a short hair person and it's so easy to maintain . Thanks for another lovely vlog ,I missed tou last week but family first ,always ❤ see you next week x
Short hair is the way for me from now on, no more trying to grow it long, life’s to short. Lol lol
Love your short hair Jeanette! I’m exactly like you and think I’ll grow mine a bit and it drives me crazy! Definitely a short style girl! Don’t stress over the mini- jumpers! Personally I would scrap them cos life is too short to fiddle with a project you don’t enjoy! You could probably do plain sleeves but really ?? Would you bother 🤣 Loving the owl and the mouse! Happy Anniversary (belated) xx
Thank you so much Heather. Xxx
Lovely to catch up Jeanette - your makes are all fabulous as always. Love the hair too xx Lesley @DuckpoolLane
Thank you so much Lesley. X
Oh how interesting your jewelry box turned into a notions box. I love that. I actually am doing something similar. how fun❤🧶
I’m going to make my next one for my knitting and crochet notions.
Thankyou for another lovely video Jeanette, I was just like you with the little Arne and Carlos jumper, mine ended up in the bin! 😢 Also just like you with the hair - I caught sight of myself in the mirror in M&S and messaged my hairdresser straightaway!! Much easier short!
Short hair is a must for me now, it use to take me so long to dry it, now it’s short 5 minutes I’m in the shower hair dried and back with crochet hook in hand. Lol lol
Lovely catch up once again. Great projects. Looking forward to seeing your box of themed sea items as you make them. Thank you for sharing your treats and projects. Sian from Wrexham 😊😊
Thank you so much Sian xx
Jeanette you look great your hair is lovely ❤ I love all the makes your shawl is gorgeous. Oh I love your travel sewing box😊 I might make one for my cross stitch supplies oh I love it. Have a lovely week x
Oh that’s a great idea, cross stitch travel case. It’s a must…..
I made my travel sewing kit last week and I love it, I am making one for the caravan too! Hope you’ve had a good week x
Aren’t they a lot of fun to make? My next one is for all my knitting and crochet notions.
As always loved the video. Love the new hair xxx
Thank you s9 much Claire. X
Your hair is lovely, Jeanette.
Thank you so much xxx
Love your shawl!
Hi Jeanette your hair looks lovely I’m like your short hair is easier to look after. Like all your makes there lovely. You have a good weekend to xx
Thank you so much Kim. Hope your doing ok xxx
@@craftycleggscreations hi Jeanette I’m doing better now did have two infections and very low white blood cells. Had a course of antibiotics and it’s all cleared up now. Xx
What about doing them flat and then sew up.
A needle felted frog would look great on your mushroom!
Oh that would be lovely. Needle felting is something I haven’t done a lot of.
Such lovely projects!!❤❤
Thank you Pamela. Xx
Hi Jeanette so lovely to see you I’m loving your new hair x can’t believe how many things you managed to get done wow x
Thanks Julie, it’s so much easier shorter, I love it. X
Love your hair, you look wonderful!
Thank you xx
Lovely to catch up with you again Jeanette and I love all of your makes, as always. The owl is adorable. I'm still tempted with that book but I'm trying to resist for now 😉 And then just when I thought I can't possibly buy any more yarn, you show us the Ricorumi Spring Cal box.. 😂😂 Happy crafting and have a lovely evening xxx
Hi Steph
Hope your keeping well. You’d love Simone latest book, it’s such a beautiful book but I totally understand and resisting temptation, these days there’s just so many stunning things to make it’s hard to choose just one!!!
I have not even seen anything regarding the spring cal yet but at least you get a taster with the picture on the box. X
Hi Jeanette hope you are well.With regards to the Advent Sweaters, Andrew of Albanach Knitter has knitted some of them so perhaps you would be able to contact him.He is a Priest who lives on the Isle of Arran.and is a 'with it ' chap who is a luvly man.Contact Andrew before you frog it.Ive just started crochet lessons and I LUV IT'.wish you luck Pauline Essex.xx
Try a sleeveless jumper vest so it an individual. Western Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🧶💜🇦🇺
❤
Your hair do is really lovely Jeanette. It suits you. Just a suggestion could you knit the jumper sleeves on straight needles? I think that would be easier.
I think I’m going to try magic loop first, and knit them in a solid colour.
That's a good idea
I just so truly love to listen to you talk to us. I’m just over here giggling that they were just tiny bad words, 🫣😉🤪. Hilarious!! Glad y’all are home and you got to spend time with your daughter!
So pleased you enjoyed the video. I had an absolute ball at my daughters, I love going to visit. Her and her wife Justina live in such a beautiful part of the county that I always feel like I’m on holiday. Xx
I really enjoyed your podcast, thank you Jeanette. Your hair is looking fabulous. You are such a talented lady and inspire me to craft more. I am just beginning my first ever TOFT after seeing your advents - I am doing Bo the Chinese Dragon. I haven't done much amigurumi before. Also, I want to learn to knit in the round and have been looking at some DPNs - flyers (bendy in the middle). Do you ever use these? I wondered if they would be any good for your little sweaters. Look forward to next weekend's podcast.
Oh I’ve seen the bendy ones but never used them. I’m definitely a magic loop girl, dpns are ok but I’m not a big fan tbh.
👍🏻
I love all your projects! Do you have a link for the mushroom pin cushions?
Oh yes of course, I completely forgot to add it I will do it right now whilst I remember. X
Love the short hair, it really suits you. Can't see the yarn in your shop 😔 has it sold out already? For the advent sweaters: you could leave off the sleeves and turn them into little pockets instead 🙂
Thank you so much, I’m really happy with my new short hair, so much easier. Yes I’m afraid the yarn has sold out, we may be able to restock before Easter but unfortunately I can’t guarantee. X
@@craftycleggscreations oh that's a shame - it's so lovely!! I'll keep an eye on your shop just in case 🙂
Jeanette why don't you just do plain white arms on the little jumpers, love the hair makes you look younger too.xx
Oh thank you Jenny, it’s much easier to look after. I’m going to try plain airs using a magic loop.
I was wondering if you can just make the sleeves in plain colors instead of doing the color work on them.
I’m going to try that. Thank you.
Could you crochet Tim a sweater?
Unfortunately Tim isn’t keen on crochet.
#jeanettemademedoit. I bought both the rico advent box and the cal in the autumn and just bought spring one... oops.
Oh how exciting. I can’t wait to start. Xxx
Hi there Jeanette, I was wondering if it would be just easier to knit the little sleeves in a straight and then when you are ready to sew(knit)them in the round just stitch them together. It would be a shame to see you frog it after all of the hard work and the hours that you have put into it.
I’m going to try and knit the sleeves on the magic loop and plain knit Xx
How much yarn does the reading shawl call for? I can’t see it on the pattern. Thanks!! Love yours!❤
There's a tutorial for the shawl on RUclips. I'm making one myself and if I'm remembering correctly, I think it's 1100 yards.
Anja suggests 4 or 5 balls but I only used 3 for mine.
Anja is 6 feet and I’m only 5’2”
Thank you!
I used 400 grams of Aran weight with a 5 mm hook xx
Where on the internet did you find out how to make it isn’t a sewing box?
There isn’t a tutorial you just have to look up the hashtag travelsewingcase and use you crafting creativity. X
For to say look on instagram
