    I'm still jumping back and watching your older videos as I have time, Juan, and I'm amazed at how far you've come and how much more comfortable you are now. Still enjoy watching every second! Big hugs!

    Granny's are a great thing to donate. Purple is my fave color too. Fave shade violet. Very cool you and
    your Mom crochet. Does she have c a hughe stash too? Would be great fun to have her on some day.

    Hi Juan! All of those blankets are beautiful. I love that you and your mom make and donate blankets in your community. Also, HUGE shout out to your mom! 80 and still crocheting strong in spite of her macular degeneration. That’s amazing! Thanks for sharing your work. 🥰🧶

    Juan check with Bag O Day and see if she can use one of those blankets for her auction for the rescue community. I know she accepts donations but I don't know if she still is. Pick your favorite to donate and let it be auctioned off.❤❤❤❤

    Hi Juan. Doing a catch up again. Loved these early blankets. I'm glad some of your early stuff wasn't perfect because like you said, it shows your journey. The black and white blanket Mama Wilma made is awesome and I'm blown away knowing she crochets almost all day long. My idea of bliss ( although I'd include knitting too😂).

    Hi Juan. Your blankets are beautiful. I especially like your brown one and the gorgeous white/grey/black that your Mum made. I would never part with either one of them. I am crocheting a queen size blanket for my 10 year old granddaughter now and have Colorama Halo to make a blanket for myself, following Crystal, after that. Who am I kidding? I always want to make something for myself, but it is so much fun to give something to someone else. Love, Audrey from Ontario. ❤️🇨🇦🧶😘

    Hi Juan, these blankets are priceless. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DON’T give away the beautiful blanket your mom made for you❤. She must have put so much love into it. I think the gray, black, and white are just beautiful. I have a knitted blanket my mom made when my father was dying of cancer. She would sit by his side and knit. I had just turned 6 yrs old 10 days before he passed. I don’t use the blanket but I imagine the memories ❤❤. Going to watch #2 now. ❤gayle

    Juan my Dude, I was wondering why your accent and phrases sounded so natural and normal to me. Now I understand why. I am 10 years older than you are and I lived in West Lawn ( the burbs of Reading) from three months of age until I was 12 years old. After one of your wonderful videos, my hubby and kids tell me " Your accent is showing" . That is one of the best things they could tell me.
    Keep the blankets! So what if they are not perfect. It means: it was made by a human, who cares. it was in the beginning of your crochet journey. they have stood the test of time. And you can see how far you have come with your crochet skills.
    Finish that scrap-gan and proudly have it on your bed. I am off my soap box now and will be over here with my hot chocolate. See you in the next one.

    Juan you are so charming. Each blanket has it's own unique beauty. I love that you reveal that they are not necessarily perfect. I know that nothing I crochet is perfect so it's comforting to know it can still be beautiful.
    Love that you and your mom donate blankets. I currently live in San Francisco, soon moving to Florida, and I couldn't find a charity locally that would accept donations of crocheted blankets. Don't know why.
    The last two blankets I made I intended as gifts but fell in love with them and kept them.😁
