This haul was purchased over the summer, but I just hadn't found the time to put it all together. What a DEAL! Most ended up going to charity organizations, but some I did keep for me.

UFO August with Heyhey_MelissaCrochets

I recently decided that August needs to be the month to take care of my current UFO's (unfinished objects). Some people call the WIPs (works in progress), but UFO is what I prefer.
I had to move my ENTIRE yarn stash. 😞

Wow you are amazing, I like to joke with my husband that I feel like a 3d printer and that's why crochet is so addictive, but my dude, you are a force to not be messed with , you are amazing! ❤🎉
Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate you watching. Do you have a favourite yarn?
Love your beautiful gift ideas! You are a great secret Santa🧑🎄😇thank you for sharing ❤

Thank you so much for watching and your kind words! I appreciate the compliments. Have you made any hexagon cardigans?
😊😊😊😊
Thanks, friend!
Fun video. I crocheted to the music and kept looking up to see the changes in yarn colors. I always like to find videos to crochet along to. Really enjoy your videos and work tidbits.Thanks!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you have been enjoying my videos. Let me know if you have any content or ideas you would like to see? Running out of ideas, slowly. (not tutorials)
😊😊😊
💜👻
Love your cardigans!!! I haven’t gotten brave enough to try to make one!!! Hello from Tennessee!! Have a wonderful weekend!!!
Hello Tennessee friend! Thanks for your wonderful and kind comment. You should totally make a cardigan! A hexagon cardigan will for sure give you the confidence as a starting off point. I believe in you!
@@heyhey_melissacrochets Thank you so very much!!! I so appreciate you!!! I will have to try one!!! Thank you!!! Hoping your weekend is filled with lots of happiness and blessings!!
Hey Melissa, if the stinky yarn is machine washable you can put it into pantyhose or a knee high and tie it shut. Then wash and dry on delicate in your washer. After it comes out of the dryer leave it out to make sure it's completely dry for a couple of days before storing it.
thank you so much, will give this a try!
😊😊😊
thank you for the comment!
Hi, Melissa! I just subscribed to your channel today and am so glad I did. Great job on all of the toques/beanies/hats you crocheted. Congrats on reaching your goal. I look forward to watching more of your vids. Have a great weekend.
thank you so much! I very much appreciate your kind words. 🎉
What a wonderful accomplishment! And what a great thing to do~! Glad I found your channel. ♥🧶
thank you so much! 🥰
For those of you demeaning my work, screw you. For those of you being nice, thank you! As mentioned in the video, the lady that I send my work to weaves in the ends that are loose, as she is no longer able to crochet (arthritis). This gives her purpose. She also belongs to a stitch club that meets weekly and will do these together. It's the same every year. Everyone that leaves a rude comment on my videos will be blocked, it's as simple as that. I hope everyone has the day they deserve.
Hi how can I donate to I like to crochet also 😊
hello! Start by searching for charity organizations in your area, and asking what their needs are.
Thank you or the idea, what size crochet hook do you use when doubling the yarn?
I use an 8mm hook 😃
Do you instructions to make your hats? I make crochet hats to donate also. It looks like you don't have very many rows. The ones I make have more rows and takes me longer to make. I would like something quicker to make.
Hi, Pat! I just typed it into the description box above, happy to share! I usually do 8 rows total on an 8mm hook (double stranded yarn)
@@heyhey_melissacrochets I have been making hats from this video. It's single strand and size J, 6mm hook. I'm going to try yours because it will go faster. Thanks for sharing. th-cam.com/video/G6OoYkwiRjI/w-d-xo.html Bag-O-Day crochet
My first time seeing your channel. The hats are so cheerful!
What size hook do you use for the hats? Love that you do them for charity.
Hello! I use an 8mm hook, since I double strand.
I’ve made sun glass cases and Kindle covers with the Bernat Home Dec.
awesome! thats a great yarn - do you enjoy working with it?
That is amazing!!! I’m going to do the same thing that is a great idea
you absolutely should! great way to use up scraps, or one-of skeins. :D
Beautiful flowers. Beautiful beanies and Beautiful person. So wonderful that you crochet all these for charity. I am crocheting for charity as well but I don’t have anything near your number of beanies. Maybe I’ll add 10 beanies a year as well 😊
thank you for your kind words! Adding 10 per year is a great motivator. Although I may have to stop at 150 someday. They are tiring on the hands. But, doing them throughout the year does help. What are you crocheting for charity?
What a wonderful donation. They are all so unique and pretty.
thank you very much! 💜
If your friend doesn't like the croquet yarn, I would be interested in it if you want to get rid of it. I like it 😄 we could negotiate a price if you want.😊
She has already used it. One of her favourites! But, thanks for the comment!
You have a adorable fur baby.
Thank you! He and I both agree - he is a handsome boi!
@@heyhey_melissacrochets yes he is
Hey Melissa, great haul!!!
Hey @angrycatcrafts! thanks for watching, this was a great haul.
Good morning and tfs.
Thank you for watching! ✨🌻🧡
@@heyhey_melissacrochets you’re welcome
Yarntastic❤
It sure was!
Great deal. Love donating. I make amigurumi working on a shark. ❤
Love that! What do you usually donate?
@heyhey_melissacrochets hats,scarves, teddies and whales. Lol
Wow, now that’s a bargain😍👍
abso-fruitly! I was happy to go and pick up this haul :D (any yarn, really)
Wow 😊😊😊
agree! It was a crazy amount of yarn.
I have always been nervous about thrifting yarn. I worry there would be bugs, or smells, or something. But, you are making me feel better about it!❤
give it a go, but be careful. I always check it over as thoroughly as possible before purchasing.
I'm allergic to wool too. I also thrift for yarn. Last Tuesday, there was so much 100% WOOL yarn at the Savers near my house. Beautiful colors. The yarn looked like home spun. Only $ 3.99 for 2 hanks in a bag. I could have cried. Being allergic to wool is an inconvenience sometimes. Good thing I was able to find a few bags of acrylic.
It sure is an inconvenience! So many beautiful yarns contain wool. Glad you at least have found some yarn. 💖
A couple weeks ago I got 30 pounds of cotton yarn from goodwill. All brand new skeins, great hauls. ❤ Nikki
Great score! what do you plan on making with them?
@heyhey_melissacrochets washcloths, dish towels, scrappy rugs, and potholders. I just love cotton yarn, lol 😆
Hi Melissa, I love your cardigan. Awesome job. Melissa did make a black and white Cardigan. I started one and got mad half way through. Lol. It is sitting in the closet on a shelf. Moving on. Have you try the dollar tree store. I love that yarn.
Hey Michelle! Thanks for the comment. You should continue with the cardigan! But, I know that's easier said than done, mentally 😜. I have tried a few dollar store yarns and have been pleased with all! Just wish the skeins were bigger, however.
I see brown. Lol
I love watching stash organization!
The best content on TH-cam!
How you feel about red, is how I feel about pinks. I like mauve and Victorian rose, or dusty pinks. But most of them I hate.
I like those pinks, too! Some are just too "flamingo", so I understand where you are coming from. I do love "Softee Chunky - shade Grey Rose", its a beautiful colour.
Looks great 🎉
thank you! It is nice having it all in one room, now
You make.beautiful cardigans 40 skeins?
Thank you for your guess & compliment! You were close 😁
Hi Melissa! Those blankets are beautiful. I'm sure they will make some lucky kids happy. I belong to Project Linus and we make blankets for babies and kids too. When I have small scraps left I make small blankets for many animal shelters here in Western NY. Everyone needs a warm hug. Thanks for all the great videos and for bringing comfort to hurting kids. My poodle Jack is always next to me when I crochet like Larry. 😅
Hey Anna! Thanks so much for your kind words. I have done some work for Project Linus in the past, too. Love that Jack "helps" you crochet!
I love watching these videos and crocheting along. Thank you for this fun video!❤
Thank you for your kind comment! I love these videos, too! I always find it fascinating what types/brands of yarn that people prefer. Do you have a favourite? Stay tuned - I try to have a video uploaded every Sunday morning.
I love these kinds of videos and I admire the discipline to track for a month! So my guess would be 20-25 skeins !
After watching the entire video I am blown away you are so talented! I could not pick a favourite from all the cardigans that you have made (the white daisy one was a masterpiece ✨) and of course you used much more than I suggested, I usually weigh all my projects and at the end of each month I calculate how much yarn I have used up and film a podcast about it because as you said - the yarn label always ends up in the bin or I lose it 😅
Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words. I loved the white daisy cardigan, too!
