    Hello from New York, US! I found your channel when searching for crochet podcasts to watch. I find so many knitting ones, but I’m much more well versed in crochet so I stick to what I know. I like big box store yarn as it’s what I’ve used since I was a child, but I’m beginning to venture into hand dyed yarns and it’s quite the experience. I love that you use hand dyed yarns with your crochet because it’s not very common. I’ve subscribed so I can watch more of your videos 😀

    You may have already done the border on that granny stripe but have you ever seen the envelope border? Sometimes called the double border as well. It’s used a lot in mosaic crochet but basically you slip stitch all the way around and then crochet a border on the back and also on the front then finally attach these together encasing all the ends inside 😊 there’s a couple of videos on how to do it on here. Xx

    Have you checked out Ellie Jones of Craft House Magic. She has a podcast, mostly knitting but she dyes her own yarn, she’s also in the UK. She has some good tutorials. A very good one on using an invisible knot to join your yarns. I use this to join my different scraps of leftover yarns, then wind them into balls which you can use to crochet from without a bunch of loose ends to weave in. Hope this is something you can use.

  • @karenroy8733

    I keep my yarns in large plastic containers. I label the containers & add cedar balls or squares to keep away moths. I also keep my projects together. I knit dolls, gnomes socks, shawls etc…. I also crochet blankets but I use them.

    • @bertscraftschats
      @bertscraftschats ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks so much Sherrie 💕 I know the feeling - that blanket has taken a bit of a back seat at the minute as it demands a little more concentration which I don’t seem to have at the minute 🫣 it will come out of hibernation at some point I’m sure!! ✨

    Your Minnow Throw is gorgeous! Well, both of your throws are 😊. Love all the new minis. I’m not a sock maker so I never understood the use for minis. You’ve given me some great inspiration to get myself into trouble on Etsy. After watching a previous episode I checked out WoodsandWool, the Sitka Shawl was one pattern that caught my eye. I look forward to seeing the color you choose for yours. I have a laundry list of projects to finish before I can consider starting that one, so it’ll stay in my Etsy favorites for a while. Also have to say what an excellent idea to borrow books from your library before purchasing them! I hate buying a book and then find it’s not what I wanted after it arrives. Time to make sure my library card is still good! As always, thank you for sharing!

    • @bertscraftschats
      @bertscraftschats ปีที่แล้ว

    Love all of your podcasts, Liberty. I’ve always loved making blankets and crocheted ones are my favourites! I love the way you put your colours together and can’t wait to see what you’re up to next. What do you do with your throws when they’re finished? I give mine to different charities, but as a knitter and crocheter of some 68 years, there really isn’t anything I need and I really enjoy giving things away, even when they’re made with my favourite hand dyed yarns 😉

    • @bertscraftschats
      @bertscraftschats ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks so much Christine. I do gift most of my blankets to be honest, but mostly to my family, or my daughter quite often benefits from them. What a lovely idea to donate to charities - that’s definitely something I’ll look into ☺️ take care ❤️

    Lovely podcast again! All your mini’s look beautiful. I wish shipping and taxes from the UK to the EU weren’t so ridiculously high, because I would definitely purchase hand dyed yarn from UK dyers. I was looking at Woods and Wool patterns yesterday. I might make the scout kerchief to use up some stash. I was also drooling over the “one more chapter infinity scarf”. I’m hoping to find a nice set of mini’s or maybe an yarn advent later this year to make this pattern. I also liked seeing the books and the basket and pouch. It’s a nice addition to wips and yarn!

I’m sorry to hear your shipping and taxes are so high - it’s such a shame you don’t have access easily to all the lovely yarn over here. I hope you manage to find a set to make the infinity scarf, it’s on my very long ‘to make’ list too!!

    I have just found your channel through episode 4 so I've come back to the beginning to watch all the others. I am watching from Adelaide in South Australia. I am primarily a Quilter ( you could of guessed that 🤣🤣) but I do crochet a little mainly in the Winter here. I like crochey videos but find a lot are veering to knitting which I don't do, I can knit but I'm absolutly terrible at it! I did smile at your French Rustic comment, some people pay professional painters for that finish 😂. Look forward to watching the rest of your podcasts over the next week. I've followed you on IG ❤

      @@bertscraftschats As you said there are two different patterns one is for the really short bandanna in fingering and the longer one for DK. I was doing the shorter one in fingering and restarted and stepped up a hook but haven't finished it yet. Got sidetracked on my other couple of projects. The long and short versions are essentially the same patterns but the long one skips rows between the increases. I think if you are going to be a little short from looking at the guage you could stretch out the increases a bit.
