Jennifer, thank you for this video. I have always turned to your channel for tutorials as your projects are always beautiful but mostly because many of them are very relaxing as well. I loved this video and thanks for all your wisdom and guidance over the years. I think this video was the best one yet. Take care.
I went to a huge yarn sale last weekend and scored a couple of gorgeous skeins of sock yarn. I posted about them on Facebook, and one of my friends said “Use one of those skeins to make yourself a pair of socks!” Huh. I *never* make socks for myself! 😂. But I think I’m going to do just that. This is a great video. Thanks!
Great ideas. Thanks for sharing. I love to crochet while someone else is driving. ❤ Also remember to drink water and hydrate 💧yourself while crocheting for a long length of time
I recommend a paraffin wax pot. I bought the hand when it first but later bought the foot because you can use both hands in at the same time or you can also do your foot but being I have so much arthritis, especially on my thumb, my mother-in-law who worked at Physical therapy showed me how to do this, mineral oil and blocks of wax that you can buy in the canning department at your local big box store put all the wax you can at first and then pour in one cup of mineral oil. Wait until it’s all melted and then begins stirring to make sure there’s nothing still on the bottom, she had me test by putting my thumb and finger in. It wasn’t too thick or too thin. It really helps when you’ve had a hard day crafting. If you don’t have that, try washing your dishes with his hot water as you can stand and then go back to crafting.
Great tips. I do the To Do list and prioritize, with the 1 3 5 rule. 1 important, 3 medium, 5 small. Something always gets accomplished, even if not by priority. I don't beat myself up as long as things get done daily.
Great tips. Every January I make something for myself. It’s a nice treat after making Christmas gifts. Also we take a lot of trips and I always have a simple repetitive project to pass the travel time.
Jennifer, Happy Halloween! You are one of my favorites crochet creators. You are precise. Your voice is very pleasing and your enthusiasm is palpable. Like you, my mind is calm when things are organized around me. I love to crochet. I love to read. So lately I do crocheting while listening to audiobooks. I am so happy that I am accomplishing two things at once. And this uncertain time crocheting is keeping me sane. Happy crocheting. Would you creat one skein scarfs for gifting? Thank You.❤
Good tip ideas I take a break or do something I can finish fast if I am doing large blanket Question I LOVE wrap/scarf behind you in this vlog. Can you tell me about it

Forget crochet for a moment🤣 your hair looks so healthy and shiny!

Let go of deadlines. The projects get done when they get done.
I agree
I like it. I agree too.

Thank you for the very helpful video. ❤❤.
Make it a point to stretch your body & walk around at least once an hour. 🧶
This is why I have so many WIPs. I only work on what I feel in the mood to do. Good idea for wrist bands. I need to get some of those!

Thank you!! I love seeing your pretty face and your tips are great!! I also like to have water or tea near me as I crochet in my favorite chair. 🧶💕
Good tip ideas
I take a break or do something I can finish fast if I am doing large blanket
Question I LOVE
wrap/scarf behind you in this vlog.
Can you tell me about it
I like to rub my hands with non menthol and non greasy muscle rub to keep hands from cramping and sore.....
Take a break when you feel the need to instead of pushing on😂
I wish i had taken more breaks to begin with. Ive ended up with elbow pain that doesnt seem to go away.
I ended up with wirst and thumb pain. Take a brake and some anti-inflamatory pils. Take care of yoursalelf.❤
