if you need a new sticker mug to honor pepper lemme know 👀 also YAY crochet podcast!! the beyoncé sweater looks so so so good 🥹 and a HUUUUUGE congrats on the yarn!! 😭😭
This was the year I FINALLY admitted I not only can’t wear wool; I can’t work with it. I gave away my wool yarn and now only buy non-wool yarn. Luckily I can work with and wear alpaca, camel and cashmere. But silk and cotton, yes, please!
Of all my allergies, animal fiber allergies is probably the one I hate most. I’ll be petting and admiring gorgeous yarn at my LYS enjoying myself and then.. BURNING ITCHING HIVES 😭
Can I just say that I always feel better about my self and where I am as a crocheter ( is that a word?🤔) after I watch one of your videos. I absolutely loved this podcast!!!!
Your announcement literally had me crying in my living room!! So excited for you and your collaboration with Hobbii. You're such an inspiration to me as a Black crafter and a win for you feels like a win for all of us. Thank you for being your authentic self and wishing you even more love and success in the future 💖
Oh my gosh Toni, this announcement made me cry. It's just so amazing to see a woman bring her passion and creativity into action in a way that gets recognized in this huge way. If you haven't already I hope you'll make a podcast about how you started and built this thing to such a phenomenal success. It's hard to believe how your persistence has paid off in this little niche area that we all love so much. Congratulations and I can't wait to have a giant stash of this. I'm so so happy that you chose natural fibers for the yarn that you are the face of!
my wallet immediately went and hid when you said half cotton/half wool yarn!! I was already super excited when I saw it, but now just thinking about how wonderful this will feel on whatever I make 😍😍😍😍😍
I’m not sure I’d call the crochet community a cult as the money spent on crochet creativity doesn’t go to one centralized leader. I’ve also never been asked to deny my non-yarny family and friends. But do I have a possibly problematic addiction to yarn and yarn content? Yeah….probably. Crafty Enablers, unite - tell me it’s okay! 😂
🎉 You did it!!🎉 Can't wait to try out YOUR new yarn. I was tearing up at the pure joy emanating from you. Girl, let your light shine! Thanks for bringing me back to a much loved art that had been in mothballs for a long time.
Sometimes a 15 minute nap is just enough for me. All I need is to completely relax for a short time to rejuvenate and refresh. Congrats on your yarn brand.
I am OVER THE MOON excited, for both you and myself (I think I scared my husband by squealing repeatedly 😂) for Happy Place!! Can’t freakin wait. Get it, gurl ❤️👏👏👏
CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎉🎉 on your collaboration with Hobbi and especially a shout out for your Mom for her continuous love and support in your life. I just love your videos, you are succinct and joyful to listen to, you are very knowledgeable about your craft without being too wordy like some. I have to say I shed a few tears of happiness and pride with you when you were talking about the new yarn you helped to design. I wish I had half your talent, imagination, and creativity to be a designer much less a maker. So, thank you for sharing it all in a manner that is fun and educational at the same time. Every time I watch your video I want to start crocheting but lately, everything I start ends up being ripped out. 😢and then I stop crocheting again. How do you get past that?
Awe! I am so happy for you! To have your own yarn line has to feel like you have reached the top of a mountain! I can't wait to see all the beautiful colors that I know you and momma Gwen came up with. Also I know good and well, if it has cotton in it and you okayed it, then it has to be super soft! It looked pretty light and fluffy. I wanted to reach through the screen and give you a hug. 🫂🫂🫂 So now, I'll be waiting with baited breath for new patterns to come out for the new yarn! Much love and success to you and momma Gwen. 🕊️❤️🕯️🧶
Congratulations on your Happy Place yarn! What a monumental achievement. I love Hobii and you are one of my favorite creators. So combing the two is perfection. I look forward to making something special with this yarn. Btw, the visuals on this podcast are stunning. The colors of your sweater, the colors of the hanging curtain behind you, all the things in the background, and your beautiful face are so pleasing and artistic. A true pleasure to watch. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You were speaking to me when you said, "Run your own race." I have compared crochet journey to others, which left me feeling inadequate. I have given myself grace and refuse to use the word "finally" when finishing a project. I will continue to "run my own race" and find joy in my journey. Thank you for your words of encouragement. YOUR OWN YARN!!!🎉🧶🎉CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Congratulations on your new line Toni!! How great is this!!! Also, thanks for all of the encouragement to keep going, keep sharing, and stay to a speed we are comfortable with🧡I found that I enjoy blogging much more than vlogging. Being balanced is the key. Again CONGRATULATIONS 🎉
Girl… I found the miracle of power naps after 50. 15-20 are my go to. I can even do 10. And if you have problems relaxing, there’s a super cool technique I learned. Get comfy. Close your eyes empty your mind and mentally start at your toes and work your way up your body ONLY thinking about relaxing each joint slowly as you move up. Most of the time, you’re asleep before you make it to your chest. 😊 I’m also beyond excited for the new yarn!!!!🎉
Oh my gosh Toni!!!! Your yarn is so beautiful. Can't wait to try it.. I could just keep your set as my background as I so enjoy the colors and textures you have put together. So admire your courage to dive into your yarn collaboration with Hobbi!!! I teared up with you as you described your experience. Go get um and I am always grateful you share your gifts and talents so generously!! Thinking my take on cult mindset is you leave your own free thought and will behind and take on the more narrow thinking of a cult leader. From what I have experienced in the crochet community, most are genuine and free thinking creators. Always a few in whatever area you explore that get stuck in narrow thinking. Thank goodness you aren't one!! LOL I agree it is fascinating to explore the history of cults and look at current day cult thinking. Keep surprising me girl!!
Toni! You got me all choked up with you! Congratulations 🎊🎈🎉🍾!!! I am so overjoyed for this next tier of your journey. And you got to collaborate with your Mom! Yayyyyyyy You! Keep on keeping on, Sis. I’m happy to see it😊
💖✨🧶Thank You, I am addicted to buying vintage and new patterns. I love how young and modern designers like You have taken styles I crocheted in the '60's and revitalized and improved them with exciting color combinations and fresh techniques. Congratulations on Happy Place🎉🧶✨💖
NO WAY!! Toni, that's such great news!! CONGRATULATIONS!! I love Hobbii already so now I'll double love them. Just today I promised myself no more yarn buying for the rest of the year but the heck with that now 😉
Congratulations! I’ve been seeing the Facebook ads. I’m so happy for you! I’ve been following for a year or so now and if there was anyone that is deserving, it’s you ❤
TONI!!!! I'm so excited for you and this new collab with Hobbi!!! I love your collections with Sewrella and am so excited to have a cotton/wool blend to choose from next :) :) Congratulations!
Congratulations on your partnership with Hobbii!! So very proud of you!!♥️♥️♥️So well deserved for your diligent work! Your kindness that you share with us and the world has come back to you!!💗💗
You are so deserving, TL. I've been watching you for such a long time. I love your spirit and your essence. I can't wait to get your yarn. I feel a granny blanket on the horizon! Congrats, Sis! 😊😊
Wow!!! Every time I watch a video I just marvel at your ability to choose color palettes. They are flawless EVERY DAMN TIME!! I'm so jealous, I wish I had an eye like yours, Toni!
Hi Toni, Congratulations on your new yarn with Hobbii, that’s exciting! Thank you for sharing the beautiful projects with us. Take care and stay safe and well. God’s blessings 🙏🏼🧶💗😻🦋
As a crocheter and someone who sells the items I make, I ALWAYS refer the artist. Even when I pull from a multitude of different patterns. I always want them to keep making amazing new patterns. Making a pattern takes a special kind of person. Keep making amazing patterns dear. You are amazing and I can't wait to try out your new yarn!!!! I'm so excited!!!!
Firstly, not a cult bc there is no one nefarious at the top with plans for control over others. Also, no one person or group is looking to collect all of the resources of its members. In fact, the idea that there is room for all is a lovely part of the community. Secondly SO EXCITED FOR THE YARN! I find locating a cotton and wool blend that is quality is often very difficult where I live. I am so looking forward to trying it and LOVE the colors!!!
I so get the crocheting clothes fear! This summer I pulled the bandaid myself and I’ve made four summer tops. (I had to frog the fourth so much that it should count for more.🥴) Congrats on YOUR yarn🎉👏🏾👏🏾
Toni, I am so very happy for you. It's a absolutely wonderful, to see good things happen for really good people. The Yarn name is perfect. I know that many of us feel that your sites are Our Happy Place. Much love and continued support to you!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
The instant you said your yarn was with Hobbii I hit up my Hobbii app trying to find it... Then hit Google when I couldn't find it... And then got to the part of the video where you said it isn't out yet, whoops 😂 Obviously signed up for the mailing list, so excited! I'd say congratulations but I feel like I should really say thank you, because this feels like a gift to us.
I love the idea of using a temperature blanket for a different year! I also LOVE that podcast!! I've found cults so fascinating since I was a teen and I started listening to true crime podcasts about 5 years ago, which lead to cult podcasts! And of course congrats on your yarn!!! 🎉🎉🎉 I cannot wait to induldge 😄
Yes, to the power naps. I have an hour for lunch and I go to my car, recline the seat and it's lights out! Congrats on the yarn! I wish I could see Bey. She rolls into SoFi stadium in September!
Congratulations on the new yarn line, the colors are beautiful! I ❤ napping. I think there is a potential for cults to form within crafts if there are people who believe that they are the gatekeepers of the craft. There are too many people within the crafting community for a true cult to form.
Naps are essential for me with my tbi recovery. I nap for about half of my lunch break everyday. I'm convinced that's how I make it through my afternoons.
Toni! I love it when people share a dream that has come true. Thank you for sharing, and congratulations! I’m working on learning to crochet and you make me (and a lot of others) feel like it can actually be done. 😍
When the first announcement was made referencing the partnership between TLY and Hobbii I was "preening" all over the place, thinking "that-a-go-girl." My happiness for your accomplishments in this area has no boundaries - top to bottom side to side. I am from the deep south and when Black Women achieve we all do! You are awesome!
Yes Toni!! I’m so happy for you (and us) with this yarn launch!! You are so inspiring and I can’t wait to get “Happy Place” in my hands and my daughters ❤
I am.over the moon for you! Congratulations 🎊 I have created a special coffee cup for saving for Happy Place Yarn so I won't miss out. You deserve this and so many more. I just start taking naps with the Grandies when I put them down. It's a game changer.
First, congrats on Happy Place! So well deserved, and I can't wait to use it! Second, after attending Flock last weekend, I 100% believe we are a cult! But a really joyous, happy one.
Love the fact you’ve created your own yarn. I do hope there’s lots of colours. Cotton and wool together is really interesting. I really enjoyed the shape changes in a blanket. I’m tired of creating squares and rectangles stripes. Someone is creative to use the triangle in such a unique way.
I'm so happy for you sis! Hopefully by the time the yarn launches, I'll be able to get some because I'm broke like a joke right now lol. And thank you for a new Spotify podcast. 😉
Congratulations!!! This must be a dream come true for you! As a fan of yours, I am excited for you and excited for all of us to try it! You deserve this moment, enjoy every second of it!!
Holy cow, I'm so happy for your collaboration with hobbii! And of course I can't wait for the yarn and the patterns 😊 hopefully Hobbii will sell it in Europe, too. Sending lots of love and keep on thriving girl! ❤
I am SO excited to undertake a new project with your YAAAAARRRNNN!!! LOL! Congratulations, Toni I know that it's going to be amazing. Girl, I can attest to power naps being a cheat code. A good 15-20 minute nap will set you to right.
Congratulations 🎉🎉❤❤ You deserve this. You have be building this community with suggestions for good equipment and throwing out there what would make yarn better fir all of us.
After watching your detailed yarn snob reviews I KNOW that any yarn you had a hand in creating has got to be fabulous. And Hobbii is already my favorite yarn source! Gotta get over to Hobbii now…
CONGRATULATIONS on your own yarn! SO awesome! And so well-deserved! Can't wait for the projects and plan on buying a few skeins asap! Thank you for all you do in the crochet community. 😁
Oh Toni, congratulations on your yarn line. Yes yes yes give us patterns and hopefully videos to demonstrate. I have learned so much from you. I’m happy to be a maker and bless family with gifts.❤❤❤❤❤
Absolutely love ❤️ the Happy Place Yarn 🧶 it’s so soft and beautiful colors that go beautifully together with the colors in your amazing new line!! I can’t wait to start my project with this yarn 🧶! Love ❤️ following you Toni and learning more about the art of creating patterns and moving forward with the art and craft of crocheting 🧶 and Tunisian yarn 🧶 creations. You inspire me to grow my are and getting my creativity moving forward into an amazing new skill. Thank you so much for your channel and your guidance in creating new ideas of creating. Love ❤️ the top that you created on the fly of stretching your skills and you definitely were up to the task in the spotlight moments of creating a beautiful new top designed perfectly for your concert in just the right place and time!! How inspiring and beautiful to watch you work through creating the top as you did. I was rooting for your success and loved watching you on that video and on the amazing new yarn 🧶 you are now supporting is full of class and joy to create new inspirational projects 👍🏼❤️🥰🌹🤠
Girl you got me tearing up right there with you!! CONGRATULATIONS ❤️❤️❤️🫶 I’m so excited for you!! Thank you for all your videos and everything you do for the fiber arts community🥹
I absolutely love your podcast episodes! SO excited for your yarn. Cotton and wool are the main fibers I make with, and I Know all those colors are going to be even more beautiful in person.
I'm so happy for you and Happy Place Toni!!! Your videos have been a happy place for me for years, it fills me with joy to know that your dream is coming true 🥹💜
Congratulations!!🎉🎉🎉 You truly deserve such a wonderful, exciting thing to happen for you. Your own yarn..so amazing! I'll definitely be checking that out when it's available. Woohoo!!🎉🎉🎉
I am so excited to see that your dream you strived so hard to create is now a reality! It is so beautiful I am going to buy some! Eeek!! 💜🙏 May God bless you in all your future creations I love watching your videos and playing them as I crochet. You're so inspirational and wonderful to watch. I adore when you bring your lovely Mama Bear to crochet with you and even just the chats 😭 this is so precious. Congrats again and God bless. 🙏💯💜
This announcement brings such joy!! I have been following you for awhile and to see this happening is truly wonderful. Congratulations!!! So excited to get my hands on this yarn, what a perfect name!
Oh, Toni. You have no idea how proud I am of you. You have become such a huge beacon of positivity in the fiber arts community and you having your own branded yarn is just the most amazing step forward for your business. I love it. The colors, the weight, the way it looks. Can't wait to be able to order some and give it go. Sending you a gazillion hugs so you can give a few to Gwennie, too
This was one of my favorite podcast episodes! I’m a professional power napper at this point in my life 😂 SO excited for your Hobbii collaboration and I can’t wait to get the yarn!
Congratulations as a WOC, I got rein spired to crochet again and I felt confident to talk about it, share it and thank you for teaching me how to Tunisian crochet. I will be getting all the colors
Congratulations Toni! How exciting for you! I cannot wait to get my hands on some of that gorgeous yarn! Love your Raglan sweater so much. Very beautiful! Also love your temperature blanket and the story behind it. I am currently working on a temperature blanket myself, but for this year 2023. I am a power napper. 20 minutes is the time limit on my naps. It's amazing how just 20 minutes will recharge you. Have a wonderful day! 🙂

if you need a new sticker mug to honor pepper lemme know 👀 also YAY crochet podcast!! the beyoncé sweater looks so so so good 🥹 and a HUUUUUGE congrats on the yarn!! 😭😭
Thank you thank you thank youuuuuu! You’ll definitely be hearing from me 🥰
Congratulations on your own brand of yarn. You deserve it.
***crying in wool allergies*** congratulations, your yarn is so pretty
Literally meeeee
This was the year I FINALLY admitted I not only can’t wear wool; I can’t work with it. I gave away my wool yarn and now only buy non-wool yarn. Luckily I can work with and wear alpaca, camel and cashmere. But silk and cotton, yes, please!
Of all my allergies, animal fiber allergies is probably the one I hate most. I’ll be petting and admiring gorgeous yarn at my LYS enjoying myself and then.. BURNING ITCHING HIVES 😭
Yeah, I can't use any animal fibers. I have the 1-2 punch of both skin sensitivity issues and a lanolin allergy
@@ErinGoBragh11 Alpacas don't have lanolin though!
"I gotta use all the colors" really resonated with me 😂
Can I just say that I always feel better about my self and where I am as a crocheter ( is that a word?🤔) after I watch one of your videos. I absolutely loved this podcast!!!!
Omg same!
Your announcement literally had me crying in my living room!! So excited for you and your collaboration with Hobbii. You're such an inspiration to me as a Black crafter and a win for you feels like a win for all of us. Thank you for being your authentic self and wishing you even more love and success in the future 💖
Congratz 🎉🎉🎉
Oh my gosh Toni, this announcement made me cry. It's just so amazing to see a woman bring her passion and creativity into action in a way that gets recognized in this huge way. If you haven't already I hope you'll make a podcast about how you started and built this thing to such a phenomenal success. It's hard to believe how your persistence has paid off in this little niche area that we all love so much. Congratulations and I can't wait to have a giant stash of this. I'm so so happy that you chose natural fibers for the yarn that you are the face of!
my wallet immediately went and hid when you said half cotton/half wool yarn!! I was already super excited when I saw it, but now just thinking about how wonderful this will feel on whatever I make 😍😍😍😍😍
I’m not sure I’d call the crochet community a cult as the money spent on crochet creativity doesn’t go to one centralized leader. I’ve also never been asked to deny my non-yarny family and friends. But do I have a possibly problematic addiction to yarn and yarn content? Yeah….probably. Crafty Enablers, unite - tell me it’s okay! 😂
I agree - obsession? For sure! Cult? No, only as a joke.
It's okay! 😂
Enjoy the passion! Your avocation, your rules!
Naps for the win! Naps are gold ✨
🎉 You did it!!🎉 Can't wait to try out YOUR new yarn. I was tearing up at the pure joy emanating from you. Girl, let your light shine! Thanks for bringing me back to a much loved art that had been in mothballs for a long time.
Sometimes a 15 minute nap is just enough for me. All I need is to completely relax for a short time to rejuvenate and refresh. Congrats on your yarn brand.
Teared up seeing how emotional you got over your yarn. When your voice broke, the tears came running down. I’m so happy and excited for you! ❤🎉🥰
I am OVER THE MOON excited, for both you and myself (I think I scared my husband by squealing repeatedly 😂) for Happy Place!! Can’t freakin wait. Get it, gurl ❤️👏👏👏
So thrilled for you - and us - over this Happy Place yarn! 🧡
"Work at your own pace" is very wise advice! I'm so glad you discussed this, because being true to yourself can be extremely empowering.
CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎉🎉 on your collaboration with Hobbi and especially a shout out for your Mom for her continuous love and support in your life. I just love your videos, you are succinct and joyful to listen to, you are very knowledgeable about your craft without being too wordy like some.

Your own yarn??!!! Yay!!!!! And no, yarning is not a cult. There is no one leader, just lots of people working toward common goals.
Girl… I found the miracle of power naps after 50. 15-20 are my go to. I can even do 10. And if you have problems relaxing, there’s a super cool technique I learned. Get comfy.

Thank you for sharing the beautiful projects with us.
Take care and stay safe and well. God’s blessings 🙏🏼🧶💗😻🦋
OOOOO I can't wait to order some of your new yarn! Those colors! wool/cotton blend!!!!
As a crocheter and someone who sells the items I make, I ALWAYS refer the artist. Even when I pull from a multitude of different patterns. I always want them to keep making amazing new patterns. Making a pattern takes a special kind of person. Keep making amazing patterns dear. You are amazing and I can't wait to try out your new yarn!!!! I'm so excited!!!!

Congratulations you planned so long and worked so❤ hard, in this instance, years and joy should be shown.🎉
I so get the crocheting clothes fear! This summer I pulled the bandaid myself and I’ve made four summer tops. (I had to frog the fourth so much that it should count for more.🥴) Congrats on YOUR yarn🎉👏🏾👏🏾
YES! Power naps are awesome! I set a timer on my phone for 20 minutes and wake up ready to go!
Happy Place looks gorgeous, by the way!
I love the jumper (sweater) you’re wearing in this video! It is GOR-GEOUS!!! It makes you glow. Well done you ❣️🌹

Congratulations Toni! How exciting for you! I cannot wait to get my hands on some of that gorgeous yarn! Love your Raglan sweater so much. Very beautiful! Also love your temperature blanket and the story behind it. I am currently working on a temperature blanket myself, but for this year 2023.
