5 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started Crocheting Amigurumi
มุมมอง 81ปีที่แล้ว
5 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started Crocheting Amigurumi
I crocheted a gorgeous baby dress with Loops and Threads soft and shiny and was so disappointed that after completing this dress there were so many pills...this was the second time...the white and lilac...the colors are gorgeous but the yarn was horrible....why is Michael's selling this yarn still? and it splits so bad...I wont be buying this ever again.
FYI, here in Yuma, Arizona, it is required that we have a business license and TPT (taxes). I pay quarterly. One quarter, I did not sell anything, so I didn't file. I was charged a $50 penalty because of that. Even if i didn't sell anything, I was still required to file my taxes. Just a headsup in case it's the same for you.
Yes, that's how it is here too! I had to file a couple months ago even though I had no sales. I think that's what it will be like the next period too, but I just need to figure out the due dates lol
Really appreciate the chenille reviews because I've never tried any yet. I've bought mostly Hobbii products til now, and I'm happy with their service, but figured I might find a local option just as likeable for plushies. Also, Maia is beautiful! She is lucky to have a human Mommy that is so patient and respectful. Your channel combines my two favorite things: cats and yarn, so I'm a happy new subscriber. 😂
Aww thank you! I'll try to tell Maia that, but she thinks I'm just lucky to have her! 😂
Every video with a cat stealing the spotlight deserves 2 thumbs up.
That's good to hear since that describes the majority of my videos 😆
@@CrochetingWithMaia perfect!
Thanks for sharing these patterns.
Completely agree with these! I've made so many of these mistakes.
I’m so disappointed in this brand 😢 I’ve always LOVED loops and threads impeccable and loved the soft and shiny feel to it. I am working on a project for my grandson and ran out of 2 colors and purchased today 2 more of 2 different colors- white and a dark yellow. I finished the yellow item and began sewing in loose ends and was baffled because while the colors were the same, the texture was completely different causing a clear visual difference. I then finished the white pieces I needed and one from the older skein was again a different texture albeit the same color, brand and subclassification. I now have to redo one of the items because it is so different. What happened to this yarn? I know it’s a Michael’s brand but when I went to the store today, it’s ALL loops and threads and there are literally no other brands available as they’re used to be and was up until 3 months ago. It’s like the quality of the yarn has gone way down. The pieces I needed the white for I’ve had to restart at least 20 times just due to variations in my tension- super activated that I have to do it again using the original white skein 🤦🏻♀️
Sorry for the late reply; I somehow missed this! But that's disappointing to hear. So far, I haven't had any issues with Impeccable, but I also haven't used it a ton. I agree though that I wish they hadn't replaced nearly all the other non-Michaels brand yarns in the store with their store brand. I'd like to see more variety!
I just found your channel and I love it- love listening to you while I crochet ❤
Thank you! I love to hear that because I do the same with my favorite crochet channels 😊
You might want to let people know that your cats all over the crochet items because I'm highly allergic to cats and if I bought one of your items I would be really sick from the cats being around your items I'm sorry I'm not being mean I'm just saying that cat allergies are bad!
That's a really good point! I only plan to sell at markets so I can definitely have a sign/disclaimer about it! My sister is also very allergic so I totally understand how bad they can be!
Your video popped up in my recommendations. You do great work! I also love to crochet ❤
Aww thank you!
There is a download pattern button on the top right of every Woobles character page, and you can print out the pattern from there.
Oh cool! I totally missed that.
I came here to say this same exact thing ❤
Do you know of no sew patterns that are for intermediate level.
I can't think of any I've tried...Most no sew patterns tend to be pretty basic (such as the octopus pattern that everyone uses). I do know Crochetbygenna has been releasing several no sew patterns recently, so she might have something more advanced. I also just bought a no sew pattern from AllFromJade. They seemed to have a few different ones. The one I got was very beginner friendly, but i didn't look at the others. I hate sewing pieces on though, so I'm also always on the lookout for no sew patterns.
They are not needles, they are hooks.
Is there a part where I said needle instead of hook? Oops! I don't script these at all, so I sometimes say the wrong things. Sorry! Of course I know it's a crochet hook!
This was super helpful! I have yet to try parfait chunky or any of the Hobbii yarns, and was curious if you have tried Hobbii toucan yet to compare with the other ones? I absolutely fell in love with big twist posh when it came out, but is obviously not stocking anymore at the moment. So I’m trying to find some thing that is comparable, that has minimal shedding.
I haven't tried it yet, but I did buy some recently for a future video! I'm hoping to do another plushie yarn review now that I've tried a few more types. So keep an eye out for that!
Omgosh I couldn’t stop laughing at what your cat was doing! She was definitely having an attitude. I hope she didn’t hurt you.
Only my pride was hurt 😂 Crazy cat...
Happy birthday 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hi there, Your content rocks! I've got ideas to boost your channel's reach. Let's team up for more subs and views!
Finally a review for soft classic! Thank you I've been super scared to use it
I really liked it! I feel like I was under the impression it wouldn't be good, but I was pleasantly surprised!
@CrochetingWithMaia can the soft classic be used for a cardigan or a winter sweater?
I have 4 🐈 and I KNOW the struggle!
Wow. I can't even imagine having 4 cats! I feel like I would never get anything done!
You've had a busy December! 😊🧶
But since they were mostly gifts, I feel like I did nothing 😅
Promo'SM 😚
I'd rather untangle yarn than deal with jumbled safety eyes 😂 Was it hard to differentiate between the sizes?
Yes! So many were so similar! That's why I ended up skipping to the end with like the 3rd or 4th size because it took so long to sort!
@@CrochetingWithMaia My worst nightmare haha. Hope you have a good Christmas! Hopefully no more eye sorting is in store for 2024 🤪
I bought the Pokemon books and the plant book was already on my list to get. But the cat book- SOLD! There's a dog one too.
I haven't seen the dog one! I'll have to check it out!
Finding a crochet hook in your yarn is like finding money in your jeans 😂 I'm surprised Maia wasn't trying to help you organise your yarn! I love that she's always popping in to make sure we don't forget who the real star is 😻 I can't wait to see part 2 🧶
Right? Even in my Christmas video, Maia isn't front and center as much, but you can still see her tail in the background, circling like a little shark 😂 She always has to show her presence.
Your baubles look adorable! 🎄
Thank you!
Great review 😊
I love Amigurumi books. Thank you for showing yours.
Great video! I love how Maia said hello with a *boop* in the beginning 😍😍
Great progress for 5 hours! It's a struggle being a slow crocheter, and your adorable little helper slows you down I'm sure 😂😍
Right. "Helper". That's exactly what she is....
All your makes are adorable! How do you make your Pokemon eyes?
I make them with felt. The pattern book gives a template for all the felt pieces so I just trace them and then pin the paper to felt to cut them out. It's a bit tedious, but it works.
@@CrochetingWithMaia Thank you :)
I would not trust my memory with keeping track of rounds, a row counter has been a life saver! You can get them quite cheap online, it's definitely a sanity saver 😅 3mm is my go-to hook too!
After I posted this, a friend told me about a row-counting app. You just tap the screen when you finish a row. It looked cool. Only thing is that I'm often watching something on my phone while I crochet...
Maia is adorable! It takes me forever to finish plushies even without a cat 😂
I've come to accept that the cat is just a convenient excuse. I'm just slow lol
You've got a great book collection! I haven't heard of most of these so thanks for growing my wishlist 😂 Your kitty cat is adorable 💛
Thank you! Yes, I tend to see the same book recs over and over. Not that there's anything wrong with that, I just don't have any of those books!
