Hello Sabine!! 👋🏻☺️ I’m so glad you found me and are enjoying my goofy videos. Thank you so much for subscribing!💖 More smiles to come! 😋💕
I am so very glad you popped up in my recommended videos , I love you, you seem down to earth and the real thing, you have been followed, keep up the good work 😊
Thank you for such a sweet comment! So glad I popped up in your feed. ♥️♥️ Thanks for being here. ☺️
Good morning! Thank you. You just made my day. My first time seeing one of your videos. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 you amigurumi are so cute. I will definitely be back to watch more
Good morning!! I’m so glad you found me. Hopefully, it was a good start to your day!!🤩❤️
I love your channel! You have a great sense of humor. I’ve loved watching your videos since I found you. I don’t have any crochet friends either. Keep up the great work!!😊
Oh thank you so much!! This means so much to me. 💗💗We have each other now. 😉
I’m so glad you want to talk about crochet. I got a box of yarn today. 😂 Not a garbage bag, but it’s still good.
I am so proud of you! And a little jealous. 😂
❤ you made my morning. Big smiles from New Zealand
Thank you so much! Glad to know you started your day happy! 💗
This is the first video ive ever seen of yours and indtantly love your content. You have such an amazing and down to earth personality. ❤
You do a heart good. Thank you so much and so glad you found me! ♥️
Your little critters are so cute 😊
Thank you so much!! 💗
For necks, I roll up white flannel tightly and sew it at whatever thickness I need. I put it down into the body and to the top of the head. Makes stuffing a little tedious but it has worked for me. All the best with your channel. You do lovely work!
I love that idea of using the flannel. I’m gonna have to try that. Thank you so much for the good luck wishes! I’m glad you’re here! ❤️
love your videos!
Awe!! Thank you so much!! 💗
Great video! ❤
Thank you!!😍
Those are cute!!!
Thank you!! 💗
@@therumimillcrochet You're truly welcome! Have a wonderful life!
Yes!! I have no idea what size eyes I’m using. 😂 and I’m ok with that. Totally relate, I recently started a crochet channel for the same reason, I don’t know any crochet people. Everyone has been so nice so far! Glad I found you, just subscribed!
Wishing you all the luck with your channel too! 🍀This is a really great community to be in, that’s for sure. And it’s a relief to know I’m not alone when it comes to safety eyes. Glad you’re here!!💗💗
Your videos are so enjoyable! And I am now caught up on every one you have made (your first ones are great!). And I have to agree that the people in this crochet community are SUPER nice.
I'm also going to be talking about my experience with the Impkins book sometime during this week (I have no schedule...and just like you said, the videos come out when they come out 😅). I found crocheting the Impkin to be an, um...interesting experience. But, more on that later 😊
Also good to hear your thoughts on the TL yarn, I've been itching to get some.
I can’t wait to hear your side of the impkins. They are a mixed bag. And so glad to know having a schedule is hard for the videos. Life….it certainly throws some curve balls. And you are waaaaaaay too kind about the videos, but I certainly appreciate your sweet words. 💗
Hi Cindy .... I'm from Eastwood, England, UK ... and a new subscriber ⚘
I came over from Caroline's channel .... I think your videos are great and you are so naturally funny, what a breath of fresh air, you definitely have your own style, I love it 😊💗 xxx
Happy crocheting .... look forward to your next video 👍 xxx
Caroline is so sweet and I’m so thankful to her for sharing my channel. I’m so glad you’re here and I love that you’re across the pond! Blows my mind how we can all connect through a video. Glad I can help make you smile😍, thank you for being here!! 💗💗💗
These are a size 😂😂😂
I love all your videos!! When I found your channel I had no idea that you had just recently started! I never would have guessed that. I think you edit your videos very well and I love all the lil video/ meme clips you add in! I’m always smiling and laughing when I watch you. It’s like I’m gossiping with a friend but the topic is crochet lol
Thank you so much! This means a lot! 😍 it’s been a learning curve for sure, but a fun one. I’m relieved that there are more of you that think like me. I try to be serious….but o m g …..it’s sooooooo hard for me. Crochet, and everything, for that matter is always better with a giggle. I’m glad you found me! ❤️❤️❤️
@@therumimillcrochet your videos are so fun and I love the casual realness it’s fun and relatable!!! The jokes about the boo name and all I love it and I’m here for it!! 🎉😂💜
Awesome vid, all your projects are Wonderful. I’m new to your channel, Happy Crocheting! 🧶🙂
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you found me! 💗
You just popped up on my suggestions and I love you already, I wanted to laugh so hard but I'm at work 🤫🤫🤫 I'm a new subscriber and I'll be waiting for your new video whenever it comes 😂
Yay!!! So glad you’re here and I giggled imagining you trying not to laugh at work. If I did that…I would start snorting then my snorts turn into other things that draw much more attention than if I had just laughed. 🤣😂 🤦🏻♀️ More is to come. 😍💗
Just had your video pop up and am delighted that it did. I have subscribed.
And I have to say, those early videos, please don’t be ashamed or embarrassed!I have not watched them yet, but just look at it as the learning curve we all take when we try something new. Looking back shows how far you have come in such a short time. Think back when you were learning to crochet, or when you see a beginner…would you be embarrassed or embarrass them for just starting and learning and not being perfect from the start? Of course not, so be gentle on your early videos, you had the guts to do it. And that is a huge positive! So hold your head high with those beginning videos! Love and blessings to you from Scotland, another crocheter in the world with no crochet friends in my area. ❤️
Scotland?!?! Scotland?!? Omg, seriously never gets old knowing that y’all are from all over the world. Thank you for the kind words and encouragement it really does mean so much. How wonderful it is to find such a wonderful community to be a part of…a blessing all the way around. So glad you’re here! 💗💗💗
@@therumimillcrochet I am originally from the US (Vermont), but have lived in the Highlands of Scotland for the last 28 years…more than half my life. When I go back to visit my family, they say I have picked up the Scottish accent but folks here say no, I have a very thick American accent. It is such a beautiful country and although it is a small one, there is such a huge change of scenic beauty types. If you ever get the chance, it is so worth a visit! I still pinch myself that I get to live here.
I love the crafting community but especially the crochet community. Most folks are just so friendly, kind, and helpful. I seldom see folks being rude and nasty as I do in almost every other community. When I find myself getting all wound up and am ready to spit nails, I come watch a few crochet videos here on yt or get my crocheting out and listen to an audio book or podcast, and I can feel myself settling back to my gentle self.
I am so glad your channel popped up and I look forward to joining in with your channel.
I hope you are having a wonderful day! ❤
@@shelleysmith4017 Vermont!!! Vermont!!!! 🤣😉 One of my friends lives there and the photos she posts are breath taking. So, really you have it made on both ends. My 23 and me says I’m 99.2 northern English, Scottish and Irish descent, so basically you’re in my homeland. 🤣 And it’s definitely on my bucket list. My husband has a scotch whiskey that he buys and he gets a square meter of land with each purchase. He keeps wanting to come and view his plots. 🤣😂 I think it’s a perfect excuse to visit. He also works in the oil field and their company has a location in Aberdeen, I love when I get to listen in on the calls. Though some of those Scottish accents are so heavy, I swear they just speak with a mouth full of marbles. 🤣
Crochet definitely brings me peace too. It’s calming and monotonous and I do it well, which I can’t say for all of my crafts, and that just makes me feel better on the days when nothing goes well.
@@therumimillcrochet Lol yes I have been very lucky. And Vt is stunning too, especially in the fall. There is nowhere else that comes close to it for the fall colors! Oh wow, you are proper Celtic! I am a major mutt lol or as my mom used to say, a Heinz 57. Lol. When you decide it is time to visit Scotland, there are a few great inexpensive airlines…KLM is a Dutch one that I highly recommend especially if you have long legs or wide hips as it is the roomiest seats I have found for travel. Iceland Air is my second favorite. Both have a short layover in their home country but not for very long usually. I was home visiting my family this summer and paid under $600 round trip per person flying into Boston. Delta has direct flights from New England but not sure about elsewhere. Air Lingus, an Irish airline says they do direct flights but they don’t really as they have a stop in Ireland and you go through immigration there before getting to the UK. If you choose them, they are quite cheap compared to American Airlines, United, British Airways, etc but just remember if you buy duty free that the shop worker seals the bag. Because your ticket says it is a direct flight, they often don’t and when you get to Ireland they won’t let it go through. I had it happen to me 😢 all I can say is thank goodness yarn isn’t restricted lol as I came back from the US with a suitcase fill in a vacuum pack bag.
I am not a whisky fan (bad teenage experience lol), but it is amazing the different whiskies here. You can have two distilleries next to each other and they taste completely different. When Hubby and I first married, I moved over two days after the wedding and for our honeymoon, we spent two weeks exploring my new country. We went to the oldest active distillery and took a special tour. At the end we were given a sample of a 120 year old scotch. I nearly got kicked out of Scotland when I asked if I could have some cola to put in it. The place went so quiet and everyone was looking at me. My hubby laughed loudly and said his new wife was such a joker, while whispering to me to just shut up and drink it 🤣 Once I did, everyone laughed and went back to their own thing.
The whisky trail is something I highly recommend following when you guys come over. Your Hubby will be in heaven. The areas often have small bespoke yarn shops where the bigger distilleries are…but yarn here is so much more expensive than back home. Although the more unique wool yarns are so delicious to work with. When we travel, my hubby is a Professor and Research Scientist, so we travel a lot for conferences, I always find a yarn shop to buy a couple skeins of something unique to that country and I find a garden Center to buy seeds to grow something different. Much better than the tourist stuff that just collects dust in my opinion lol. Aberdeen is beautiful although the native Aberdonians have a thick accent that took me ages to understand. When I moved here our elderly neighbor was quite friendly and chatty, he grew up in Aberdeen and never lost that accent. I could not understand a word lol so would not go outside until hubby was home so that he could answer with the gist of the question in it so I could follow along 😂. After a few years I finally got the nack lol. I love that the company gives you a small plot of land, so your hubby is a Laird…most folks think it is a gimmick and it is, but it is also a real title that can be legally used.
Oh and depending how long you have to visit (a week is nowhere enough), the Scottish islands are definitely worth a visit too! They are each unique and have their own distilleries also. And gin has become a huge industry here too, so if you like gin, you can get some amazing gins and gin liquore. I would also recommend, if you like scenery, to drive the NC500 (north coast 500) which is 500 miles of the most incredible views. The north of England is also spectacular! The rolling mountains are stunning and the lakes are so beautiful. There is just so much to see and do over here. ❤
@@shelleysmith4017 you are a wonderful wealth of knowledge. I’m betting we could talk all day….and believe me I would pepper you with questions about everything.
I’m with you on scotch, whiskey and bourbon…I just can’t. It all tastes like cough syrup to me. Even the smell. There might have been some overindulgence in college. 🤷🏻♀️😜There needs to be a lot of fruit juice for me to enjoy it and even then…it’s only ehhhh. But the hubby likes a huge variety of it.
You have listed so much wonderful stuff. It’s our hope to go there one day. He’s a Heinz 57. 1/16 Native American and we had always believed that the Smiles name was Indian, turns out it’s actually Scottish. I think it’s been modified through the years but I never would have thought it was Scottish. So we need to visit the homeland. We are gonna need to stay in touch. Because I can see this becoming a tremendous cross continental friendship all tied up with a beautiful yarny bow. 💗💗💗
I completely understand your hatred of cotton (100% kind) I have found a couple that are really great but the rest are absolute torture on my hands and shoulders. Team Acrylic!
Your makes are always so cute! You find the best patterns.
I am an amigurumi designer and YES you can always alter a pattern to fit your needs especially it is just for you or a gift. If you sell you do need to credit the designer but other than that, no problems. I love altering patterns (even my own LOL) to give them a new update or turn them into something specific.
Exactly! There are a very select few, pure cotton yarns I enjoy. If I do go cotton, I always do a blend. Acrylic is definitely my fave too. And yes, adding your own spin to anything is awesome! It truly makes pieces your own. I can’t wait to see what Tots you do for Xmas. 😉🎄♥️
Just found you and very impressed. Will return for sure. Just starting amigurimi.
Glad you found me. Hope you end up enjoying amigurumi too. 💗
Thanks, Cindy for the fun chat. I too hate cottom but I was given some that had 40% acrylic with the cotton and it was so much easier! So I am just pretending that it is a cotton yarn and using it in patterns that call for cotton-part cotton counts as cotton doesn't it lol!
Good morning!! Yes, blends are where it’s at, for sure. I know so many amigurumi designers LOVE cotton. I will never understand them. 😂 Just a tad bit of another fiber makes a world of difference. So glad you found me! Welcome! 💗
Thank you,I have a lot of trouble with the impkins. I did not chain 1. I was so mad, made the foot 3 times. Your great 🎉
I’m so glad you found me. 😁💗And yes,those impkin bodies were tough. If you go to ksmomcrochet channel, she created her own new impkin body that is so much easier and still works with all the impkin accessories. I’m planning on using her pattern for a Christmas themed impkin. So glad you’re here. ☺️💗
Thank you for making me laugh out loud. You’re the best! ❤😂
Awe!!😍💗 mission accomplished! 😁
You are a joy! So glad I found you. I will be looking forward to all your shows.
Thank you so much! Y’all are gonna give me a big head and make me insufferable to live with. 🤣😂 But keep the sweetness coming, there’s never enough kindness or laughter, and hopefully we will experience both together. 😍💗
I just stumbled across your channel and I'm hooked! We are fellow hookers. Haha! I so wish you lived near me because we would be friends. I love crochet and I love amigurumi and talking about crochet! I enjoy watching your videos and I'm going to go back and watch all of them, eventually. I have so many of the same pattern books as you and so many more I want. I also have purchased numerous patterns from Etsy! So many patterns and so little time
I am so glad you found me! Hookers unite! 😜 I’m sure we would be real life friends and have deep conversations about yarn, patterns and safety eyes. Others would roll their eyes at us when we fangirled at designers or new book releases. But us….we would be happy as kids in a candy store😜😍. Sorry, this was a weird response…I’m still drinking coffee. It takes time for me to be a somewhat normal individual. 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️😂😜 Glad you’re here!💗
I laughed SO much, on a day when I really needed it!! Subscribed immediately! Keep doing these videos, you are fantastic!
I’m so glad I helped you smile on a hard day. Truly one of the best compliments I can receive. Thank you so much! 💗💗
I found your channel by accident and I must say,I’m hooked. I love your content,funny humor and your beautiful crocheted pieces. Thank you, for sharing your time from your busy schedule.❤
How kind of you! I’m so glad you found me💗 more fun to come. 😁❤️
I always go back and start from the beginning, watching where podcasters have started and how, if at all, they change over time. Will catch up soon and I'm sure you did great, as you do now.
Love seeing your makes and the modifications you make, whether you choose to or not...😊
Awe, thank you. I’m constantly trying to tweak and get them better. Slowly but surely. 💜
Girl I feel you so much on the “never doing this again” vibe 😂 love that I found your channel, hope to follow you for many moons to come ❤️
I’m so glad you found me too!! Lots of giggles to come☺️💗
Oh I love your little Impkins and now I know it was you that put the rainbow glitter yarn in my head 😂 I do love that yarn so much, very pretty! I thoroughly enjoy your names for your Ami's! Miss ACorn is adorable 😍 I look forward to more videos from you 🤗
I love that universe yarn…I called it universal in the video…wrong, wrong…it’s Hobbii’s universe. It’s so pretty. Thank you so much for the compliments Julie!! More to come. 💗💗💗
You are amazing in every way, I don’t giggle -I laugh! And for the record, I have been watching crafty videos for decades (my main hobby is cardmaking) I have only written like 5 comments on RUclips in my lifetime and all those dedicated to you. So you girl will reach 100k subscribers in no time! 🎉❤
Oh my goodness! What a sweet message! Thank you so much! I feel honored to be in the comment worthy crowd. I’m so glad you’re here. More laughs to come. 💗💗
WOW!!! I just found you! I have only just started teaching myself to Crochet! I've made a blanket. I sew teddy bears. Saw some patterns for some beautiful crochet bears and bought a pattern. Then thought I had to teach myself to crochet first!!!! I live in Australia so hello to you my new friend. Will be looking through all your videos... Oh yes people are mean on here. But don't waste your time or energy on them at all. It's not worth your worry.
My husband is currently on a rotation working in Australia. So, it’s kinda like we are neighbors. 🤩 I’m so glad you got the crochet bug, it’s truly been a life changing hobby for me. I hope it brings you as much joy too. So, glad you found me and are here in this little space. 💗💗
We live in Queensland... Yeah, neighbors across the pond! Ive been naughty and bought some of the books you went through. Shhh do not tell my husband! Might have to hide the package when it comes! LOL! He says I have far to many books! @@therumimillcrochet
@@dolphintouchmichellepsychi6217 your secret is safe with me. There’s never enough books. My husband will be in Broom. I’m sort of learning y’all’s geography….but I have a looooooong ways to go.
You are fast becoming a fave of mine 😊 loving the impkins - I have the book but waiting to do a collab with it next year! Awww squirrel is adorable 🥰 oh no a Lone Ranger of an acorn ❤
You’re so sweet!! 💗Thank you so much. I was just watching you this morning and not envying you at all in your point system. You’re gonna need to get you some wine to help you through all of that. Bless your heart!! You’re a stronger woman than me. 💗💗💗 Thank you so much for the sweet compliments, made my day. 😍😁
Cindy , I didn't get to see your Squirrel. BTW Tony and I have same relationship 😂🧶
Omg….I love Toni. I’m probably a slight stalker but in a good I won’t hurt you kinda way. 🤦🏻♀️🤣😂 this is probably why you and I could be good friends in real/in person life…we like the same people.
@@therumimillcrochet 😂🤓👋💞 she commented on my IG as well😳
@@carolinefortheloveofcrochet twinsies!! 🤣
Early in my journey I created a blanket for my teenage son’s birthday. It had 5 corners. To my horror he delighted in showing this blanket to all of his sarcastic friends.
That’s hilarious! Don’t you love it when they NEVER let you forget your oopsies?! 🤣😂 I bet it had character though. 💗😍
I have binged watched all your videos
Bless you dear one….that was a brave move on your part. 🤦🏻♀️🤣💗 hope you survived ok. 😍💗
Just found you and love your sense of humor! ❤ Elise is the only have other crochet channel I really say I have to watch besides yours. Please keep it up! You make me smile. I agree about the slip stitch, chain one being confusing. I love everything you make!! ❤🥰
Omg! To be on Elise’s level! That’s a huge compliment. She’s one of my must watch videos every week too. Thank you so much for making my day and I hope I made you smile too! 💗💗💗
@@therumimillcrochet You did! I can't wait to see more videos!!
For the smaller size impkins necks maybe you could use those form pencils grips? They usually come in packs and they’re smaller than hair curlers.
That’s a great idea!! I never thought of that!!! Thank you! 😁💗
@@therumimillcrochet as you were talking it just popped in my head so I had to share 😂 I’ve never done any of those tips but I think it should work lol
Those impkins are adorable.
Thank you so much! 💗😁
You rock..
I have used rolled up pieces of cheap felt in necks and legs to give them more structure.. it works.
Thank you so much! That is a great idea, I’m gonna definitely need to try this. 😁
BTW….what did you say about Cotton?? 🤣🤪🤣 Girl I know we could hangout…like two peas in a pod or Mutt and Jeff. Either way it’d be a riot! 😳🤪🤣
I’m betting we would totally get along like peas and carrots! Also, I really am not a fan of cotton. 🥴🤣
Love Connie and Dobby’s cousin, Robby! Too cute! I just saw a podcaster (which one, I don’t know), but she makes 3 arms for her toys and puts one of the arms in the neck, then stuffs the arm to make a less-wobbly head. I haven’t tried it yet because I can’t stop making pumpkins, but FYI.
Zsa Zsa is absolutely darling!
That’s a really good idea. I think I’ve seen something similar floating around and this person crochets a tube to fit in the neck. I think Connie and Robbie are gonna be up to no good over here,it’s a good thing they are cute. 🤣😂
I also don’t like using cotton yarn for my amigurumi. It hurts my hands way too much. I like using wool yarn for my amigurumi because it stretches. 😊
I totally agree! Have you tried the berocco vintage? It’s amazing, just expensive and it’s in hanks which is kinda inconvenient. 💕
@@therumimillcrochet Yes. I love Berroco Vintage and Berroco Vintage dk. 😊
I love your little amigurumi people and owl. 😍 I hate trying to use cotton too!! 😡 It does not fill me with joy!! 😌
Thank you 💗and yes…cotton yarn is the thief of joy. 🤣
Slip st, ch 1 is more prevalent in classical amigurumi designs.
Good to know. Thank you!😉
Hi, so pleased I found your channel, popped over from Caroline's. The impkins are so cute. I just wanted to mention I find the background music very distracting and it makes it hard for me to hear what you are saying, is there anyway I can turn the music bit off?
Hello, I’m so glad you’re hear. Thanks for letting me know. I will try tweaking the music some more. Sometimes when it uploads the sound changes from my system to RUclips. I appreciate the feedback and glad you’re here. 😉💗
Welcome from Pasadena TX your neighbor who isn’t mean lol
Awe! Hi neighbor! Thanks for being a nice one. I’m on the north side. Glad you’re here! 💗❤️
Hi Cindy! As I'm writing this comment, you are up to 13 comments....if you continue this way, you too are gonna neeed an assistant!!!
About the slst, ch 1 I 'm exactly the same way as you, even with a stitch marker, I'm having problem to have the right stitch count. So I NEVER DO IT!
Same for cotton yarn. I dont wanna use it for any single amigurumi! . I dont like the look of it, especially in amigurumis. I dont like the feel of it and I wont pay high price for expensice softer cotton. Acrylic is perfect for me ...I do amigurumis for approx 95% of my crochet..
I love your little squirrel🥰🥰🥰
It is a relief to know I’m not alone in my disdain for cotton. I know so many love it, but I just can’t. Can’t. And again those sl ch 1….how is that so confusing? But it is and messes me up sooooooo bad. It’s not worth the torment to even attempt.
And….what in the world am I gonna do when I hit 20 comments????🤣🤩 So glad you’re here and I’m in good company. 💗
I had preordered that impkins book months ago when they finally shipped I got an email that it was damaged and returned to Amazon. So no book for me 😢
Oh no!!! Will they ship you another one? I hope so. I love the book…you just gotta know in advance to tweak as needed. So many neat things in it.
@@therumimillcrochet when I called about it they just issued a refund. I haven’t checked but her last book sold out fast and took forever to restock.
Seriously, you can do Impkins without the slst ch1??!!! And they are ok? Hallelujah!! I’m still working on my first one …
Ok, is there an alternate way to make the belly WITHOUT that round piece? I hate the round piece 😵💫😵💫
I’m not experienced enough or confident enough to mod the pattern myself. Help!
