I'm all for yarn that can go into a washing machine and a dryer. Who has the space for drying things flat without kids and pets walking all over a garment. My pets would definitely lie on top of it even when a little damp.
while i agree with you, i learned that if you want to keep things truly soft (like blankets, fleece, towels etc, fibrous fabrics that are super soft when you buy them and then get ruined by washing), you should really let them air dry. Pop in a dryer on a warm shortest gentle cycle, then let airdry. Also replace fabric softener with vinegar in the washer, it will remove the detergent residue and also keep your washing machine mold-free. it won't stink of vinegar but as an alternative don't use any fabric softener for your fibrous fabrics. this made all the difference for my soft garments. best to dry overnight to avoid children, as for pets... yeah you can't stop them
Right!
Just want to take a moment and appreciate how you took care in making sure not to catch unsuspecting fellow shoppers in your shots! 🖤 I think that displays a lot of thoughtfulness and consideration on your part.
That anniversary cake is crying out to be made into a blanket! 😁 Nice selection of yarns that you got there 👍
Those are awesome to work with!!
New here and I love your energy! ❤️ I love crocheting and knitting with fall yarn the colours are so beautiful
I love the footage of getting the cart from the camera persons perspective 😂. Like so relatable to go to the craft store with someone and be like hey can you grab a cart for me even though you argued about whether you needed one when you walked in
❣️cute yarn, cute nails❣️that gradient gray one is darling, adorable grunge-fairy vibes❣️
Love using the Caron Latte Cakes for cowls! Also the whole "distracted by Halloween decor," honestly same!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who buys colors based on the name 😂😂😂
You should make a sweater with the big cake. It would be lovely 😍.
I LOVE latte cakes! They're the softest ever. Cloud cakes are awesome, too. Can't wait to see what you make!
Omg I crocheted my first throw with that storm colored tea cake yarn, I used a scalloped/shell pattern and it turned out SO pretty!
I always tell people who get my blankets, wash in the washer on gentle cycle and NEVER put anything that has zippers, hooks, or anything that can snag the yarn!
Since baby blankets get washed a lot more than blankets for adults, I recommend washing & drying the blanket with sheets, pillow cases!
I normally use Yarn Bee Soft Secret for baby blankets! Two of my favorite crochet stitches are the Block Stitch and the Shell Stitch!
I just saw your channel! I recently got back into crochet, and being pastel goth, it is pretty expensive which is when we whip out our DIY skills~ ✨ I absolutely love black and pastel yarns, and am a sucker for chunky yarn. 💕💀🍭
I love yarn haul videos! I'm going to Joann's soon and I'm sooo excited! Yarn collecting is a hobby all by itself.
Cloud cake is my favourite to make baby blankies, soooo soft
I love love love the Cloud Cakes! The yarn is very fussy in the sense that it’s limp and compresses, but it doesn’t split (because it isn’t a plied yarn). It’s more like a 3, but you can play with the hook size you use. I use a 5 or even a 5.5 if I want a really light blanket- in Florida we want light blankets 😂 All four of my kids have requested a blanket in this yarn after I made myself a wrap. ❤
I'm so glad I found you . I'm also alternative and crochet so your content makes me happy and feel spooky
That was a fun adventure. Looking forward to seeing tomorrow's video. Sending well wishes xo
Thanks for hanging out🎃
The Michael's you went to definetly has more than the one I work at! Might need to look at the other locations. A great Annivarsary cake for fall colors is Chocolate Fountain, sadly it's out of stock 🥲 I got 4 while they were on sale. They make for great wraps, towels, rugs, blankets.
I haven’t seen the Chocolate Fountain cake but I feel like I would have loved it🦇
@@AltKnots It's beautiful! It has dark wine, red velvet, orange, sand, and grey.
how to make me fall in luv in 2 seconds 😩
I like the falling leaves one n the candy corn bag but all the colors r pretty
I LOVE how soft the Cloud Cakes are! I haven’t seen that color!!!! Lava!
Soooooo soft!🎃
I love the wavy granny blanket!
Oooo the spice cakes. I love the marled ones. I don't need more yarn. I have lots of yarn. Maybe I'll just see what's available in my local michaels. lol
Hi alt knots right now I am working on my cottage core mosaic blanket and granny squares blanket and single crochet blanket and I love your channel and your videos and if you keep making making I will keep watching them and what is your favorite crochet project to work on right now and favorite types of yarn to used when crocheting and I really enjoyed going yarn shopping and I can't wait to see all the yarn you got at michaels
That lava color is amazing, I think I need some lol. Also, I am making a cardigan with my spice cakes, super easy to work up.
I love, love, love Caron Latte cakes.
Made awesome soft snuggly blankets that are a couple years old now(2+) and still holding up very well.
I literally went out to my Michael's the next day after watching this, just for that loops and threads Falling Leaves yarn. 😅 I also came home with some of the Caron cakes to make cardigans out of. Falling Leaves works up beautifully.
Is it not just the essence of fall🎃🍁🍂
@@AltKnots It really is, and I can't get enough of it.
The gray ombre i have started in a waffle stitch cardigan its huge.
Awesome finds of cool yarn colorways. I've never seen those cloud cakes at my Michael's but I'll keep an eye out for them. Can't wait to see how they work up and what blanket you make with the anniversary cake. Take care 🧶🤗🙏
Love anniversary cake time!! Was it last year that they had that blood red one with the sparkle that ran through it?? that was SO beautiful. I have a ton of the black on from that line leftover. And a ton of the cloud cake in grey/black. The big cake tho...to die for! I used 2 of them last year to make hubby a blanket. He's a big boy so finding him personal sized blankets is always hard. He loves it tho!!! Can't wait to see how the addi feels about these......
As someone who works at Michaels, I am always peaking at our new yarn lmao
Oh no that feeling when the pretty pattern is the OTHER fibercraft D: That's awesome yarn though, thanks for taking us along.
omg, how have I never seen your channel before?? T_T I love the gothic aesthetic!
We don't have yarn stores like this in my country. You're lucky maybe to see one wall of wool and it's all mostly basic polyester double knit blends. I'm super jealous 😭
We have the same bag! :D I've been loving a lot of the Caron yarns they've come out with lately. I am regretting not getting a second Funnel Cake (cotton) back in the early summer.
I never saw that color but all the cotton cakes are delightful!🎃
@@AltKnots It was the line name! Color is Rose Petals and it's a pale pink gradient.
It’s so funny all the colors you chose is the same ones I got. Great minds!!! With my Anniversary cake I was going to do a sweater or a cardigan. My favorite Caron by far is the Tea Cakes. Love those cakes. Thanks for sharing, Kayla!!! Have a great day!!!🦇🎃👻🖤
I friggin love latte cakes. I made some things out of it (cows, hats, shawls, scarves) for a craft fair and my sister was making fun of the yarn because it was "ugly" (she didn't like the scraggly fur look) but she loved the feel of it. they were the first items to go! ❤
I love this channel so much
Just seen u have got 32k plus subs i have loved seeing your channel grow in the short space I have been here! Congratulations 🎊. Loved this video
those cakes!! 😍 i can't wait to see all the things you make with them!!
Yes to all the yarn!! And also the Halloween tote! I got the same one, it's sooo cute and I've been using it everywhere!
Anniversary cake can be a floor length kimono style house robe or snuggie
Omg that’d be great!
Perfect... I'm designing a house coat! 👘
I noticed the first caron cake she grabbed was like neon pink 💜💓 its yo girls Alt knot's favs color vibes for sure 😊
Heres to my adventure time sweater i have in nearly that same color of pink ⚔️🌸🌷💗
I love your ring it is so beautiful and I love the yarn you looked at
the pumpkin dude would have made a cute yarn bowl
oh totally!
UK person here I'm so jealous of all the beautiful big balls of yarn you get in USA x
Justva tought ,you could use the storm blanket pattern with the ginger color spice caron cake, still has the wave effect and it is crochet.
Never seen your videos till just now, but how insane... I was just at that exact Michaels yesterday. The blue anniversary yarn was still there and I debated getting it. Lol. Small world.
For that Gingersnap Caron Cake, even though it is knit I know you can make that wave stitch as a crochet version and it would look very similar! Definitely check out a wave stitch, I've made tons of baby blankets with that one :)
Hey I cannot wait to see what you get at Michaels I love your Channel is amazing so let's go to Michael's!
I need to get more of the Caron Cakes at some point. I made shawls with the ones I have and they are fantastic. So nice, soft and pretty.
I say make both like you said if you don’t like it then you can change it to just a blanket
For the ginger snap blanket you can do a short chevron stitch!! It gives the same wavy look. You can also do it bigger but the shorter one will look the most similar.
Thank you for this! I live in Japan now and I really miss Michael's, Joann, and Hobby Lobby. Also, all of the independent yarn stores that I see popping up. Japan has some good yarn but it's not at the scale of the US. Can't wait to see more shop with me videos!
Make the crochet blanket on the storm label but use the ginger snap color instead
I’m thinking this is a must🎃
It would be so freaking pretty👻
Hey! Love seeing more yarn :) I washed and dried the latte cake and it shrank and kind of felted so be weary. Gerat choices though thanks for sharing
Hey you can get that waviness with a ripple or chevron stitch!
I saw the Caron Anniversary cakes last weekend when I was at Michael's... this just inspired me to go get one. Hopefully they still have some lol
I just bought my first furls hook because of you lol. I am waiting very impatiently.
Thank you for the content 😊
I found your RUclips . by Tiffany Hansen. I love the last yarn definitely make a blanket . I haven't been to Michael's in so long. I have to go shopping soon!
lovely selections.
I'm using the Caron Spice in the color Raspberry Rainbow. It's working up great. I'm using the recomended hook with a granny spike stitch. It might be the stitch but the scarf does not have a lot of drape so far.
I think I would just go forward into the blanket so you don't waste a single scrap of it. I mean yeah babies are small, and I don't use very much more in but it's just that much more you can use for a blanket.
Happy spooky month 🎃
Happy Halloween!🎃🦇🎃
Make a blanket with anniversary cake, can't wait to see everything
Make a blanket with the anniversary cake using the pattern from the storm cake and then make a cardigan with the storm
Omg yes! A cardigan out of storm would be gorgeous 🎃
Psst...most wool blends can go in the washer on cold in the delicate cycle, lay flat to dry. Unless it's a felting wool (heavy on the lanolin) it's usually fine in the washer. Who has time to hand wash anything?
The anniversary cake screams GIANT scarf to me Like super oversized
Anniversary yarn should be a blanket!
Blanket would be nice with Storm color yarn
So I got several of the first run Anniversary cakes and I made a basic twin sized blanket out of one of those suckers. But with over 1000 yds you cold make a whole winter set with it.
On the blanket on the label of the spice cake Furls has a shawl pattern that looks exactly like that. It's the Hecate shawl.
I’ve actually made this pattern and didn’t put the two together! Maybe that’s why I loved it😂
Blanket! Blanket!
I would make the blanket
For that Gingersnap Caron Cake, you could take the pattern from attic24 Woodland ripple, i think its the exaclie the same pattern :) your welcome
Perfect! Thank you🎃
Make the blanket on the anniversary cake yarn!
100% plastic yarns lol so crazy how soft they can make it. Got some pretty ones there : )
I would be in so much trouble... Micheal's next to Staples???
Trying to convince myself I don’t need more yarn.
Love those nails! Do people act like you’re weird because you don’t look like the ‘average’ person?
Enough personal questions. I’m just learning, so all goofs are my own. My main problem: pulling the hook back through the loops and the yarn keeps splitting and getting woolly. My grandma crocheted and she used a hook that closed when she drew it back. What am I doing wrong?
@altknots for anniversary cake patterns I go to BagODay Crochet, she got me hooked on Caron cakes lol no pun intended! She has beautiful blanket patterns, all crochet.
Love all of your choices! Is the Latte Cake hard to work with? I’ve always been hesitant to try it because of that wild fuzziness. 🐥
I had an idea-why not take the blanket pattern from the gray yarn and use the ginger snap yarn to make it?
Me wondering what’s at my michaels location even though I was the one who stocked them 😂
For the anniversary cake, did you ever think of doing a poncho... or a wrap?
I made a cardigan with Caron Latte Cakes - I will say the eyelash ends up flettening a LITTLE in the washer and dryer but it is super cozy and comfy!
Quelle merveille ce magasin !
Ça n'existe pas en France ! 😭
Love all the colors. I'm trying to learn to crochet and I'm struggling! I've watched a zillion videos and have very little success so far. I think I bought the wrong yarn and hooks maybe. It's very hard to tell where each loop is after I make the first chain row and I think it's cuz I grabbed a fuzzy yarn. Any recommendations on Edgar number yarn to practice with and also what size hook? I have the whole yarn over and sc stitch down I just get frustrated trying to not miss areas and find the holes.
I totally get it. Starting can be frustrating. I’d start with a medium number 4 weight yarn and a 5.5mm hook. Also working with things like red heart super saver or z-twist yarn can make it easier to see the stitches🎃 spooky stitches!
@@AltKnots awesome thank you I'll try that and see how it works out! Can't wait to see what you make with all your finds
New subbie here. I would love to see the blanket. Can I ask what is an adding machine? I’m new to crotchet and made a blanket for my husband that is not as soft as I hoped.
Addi is the brand name of the knitting machine. They also make awesome knitting needles! They're made in Germany.
I am making a coat for my g granddaughter out of latte cakes
That’s going to be so cozy!🎃
Hello I love your channel I was wondering was is your favorite blanket yarn?
Thanks so much! At the moment I love Bernat Forever Fleece blanket yarn because of how soft and fluffy it is
Not all the Caron yarns I havnt been able to get in Australia 😭😭
Awesome video. What ADDI machine do you have?
Thanks for showing me into the store because there is no Michaels in my town it's like 70 miles away. I'm also handicap right now so I can't even freaking walk. I don't really like their fibers with all the polyester but That's just me. I'm more of a cashmere Merino wool cotton kind of person. I get all my yarn from a yarn shop local. Have you ever been to a real yarn shop? they have more variety. I like the one that look like pumpkin spicy cake color. I was laughing that you were skipping into the store I like your personality LOL. Personally if I were in Michael's I would probably have chose in that green one that you looked at cuz I love greens.
Do not put Latte Cakes in the dryer. The fuzzy stuff will make the project look felted. I was so disappointed.
If you’re looking for a wavy crochet stitch blanket I’d check out TL yarn crafts RUclips channel she has a great one!
DO NOT PUT THE LATTE CAKE YARN IN THE DRYER!!! It matts up really bad and loses quite a bit of its softness. I ruined a poncho and blanket by putting them in the dryer.
Why did I watch this? Now I want to go yarn shopping. I usually buy online, but I miss shopping in-store, as I can be instantly gratified. 🕷 🧶
