    What a lovely young lady you are. I’ve been doing this about 40 years now and your tips are much appreciated. Thank you for sharing.

    For me (and a lot of other crocheters) you mentioned in #3 about getting better at sewing. I think a lot of us just hate sewing/assembling so that may be a reason why
    Thank you for the wonderdul tips thought! I never thought about using a bigger hook for a cone head or using sticks to hold in pieces

    Do you have any tips for embroidered eyes? I understand safety eyes are not suitable for very young children and it’s recommended to embroider them.

    Thanks for all the great tips. I never thought to use sticks to hold the head in place. I just use a long 2"or 3" pin. I'll have to try the stick tip.

    Really good tips, thank you. Ive been crocheting forever, since I was a kid, but not toys. I want to do some minis for keytags as I don't know a lot of little people anymore. But I do know a lot of adults that are kids at heart. Ty again.

  • @tkgosselin
    @tkgosselin 6 месяцев назад

    I am confused about putting your yarn joins at the back of the project. Your joins should be seemless. There are several youtube tutorials for this, especially if selling items you want an even edge of color. Sizing down for chenille yarn is a must, but increasing tension with a 2 size hook.decrrase will keep everything in perfect shape and also eliminate a cone shape

    How do I find those eyes on AliExpress?

    • @yarnybox
      @yarnybox  10 месяцев назад +1

      You can search “30 mm safety eyes” or something along those lines and you should get lots of search results!
