Yay! I'm glad my suggestion to string them together was helpful! I can only take so much credit though, so thank you Toni/TLYC for being a genius! Its always so satisfying to see all the colors strung together, especially with fades. As another tip, I also write down on a note card the dyer, advent theme, number of minis, and the yarn base info and stick that in the bag or punch a hole in it to string too, that way I know what I'm looking at later, especially the yarn base. I always forget what base I've got and the yardage info, and it seems to be easier to find it during advent than 6+ months later.
"I was worried I missed that and didn't say anything" LOL the relief in Kent's comment 😂 That Twice Sheared Sheep advent feels like the perfect advent for random goodies. The yarn carosel was super cool.
OK I'm absolutely obsessed with the stringing the advents together thing. It was REALLY cool not only seeing the advents together, but also seeing how each dyer's unique "style" comes through in the collection!!!
Is it Bloomingdale’s that has that “Big Bag”? I’m thinking its like a beige colour with a brown round font? I could be wrong…i am Aussie and going off seeing it on TV 😂
I am for sure getting that puzzle advent for myself and my grandma next year and we can long distance do the puzzles together. You've given me the best idea.
Wow! The Homespun house advent is amazing! Definitely wishing that I had gotten one too.. I made a note for the next year of who's advent to be on the look out for though!
Before you leave Florida stop by historic St. Augustine. The historic district is decorated for Christmas & right now is the Nights of Light celebration which lasts thru the end of January. You will NOT be disappointed. Walk around the city at night, every thing is lit up. Kent-not to scare you but to make you aware be careful walking Toaster near ponds & retention ponds. You never know when a gator could be in there. They have grabbed pets & small children & dragged them into the water. Just want to keep you both safe.
Chaos cleaning is when you try to impose order on your surroundings when you feel chaotic inside. ;) I didn't think I was a fan of fade Advents, but the ones you have are just stunning!!!
OMG Natalie! That Pretty Twisted Yarn screams your "bestie", Sarina! She is dying watching you string them up together. She wants to know why I didn't buy that advent this year! If I knew that that was even an option, I would have loved to have bought that advent for her.
LOVE LOVE LOVE all the Fades! I just learned about Yarny Advents from you this year! I am very eager to participate next year and making my list of the yarn dyers that I want to purchase from next year!
I LOVE the hanging them on a piece of string thing to have the best overview! I only have 1 yarn advent and am already working with the yarn, but maybe next year I can have more than 1 and can do this as well, looks so cool!
I'm laughing so hard at having to cut out the Alexa timer, we have one too and it always talks to us if someone in a video says anything remotely like Alexa 😂😂😂
watching halfway through this video i am hoping you string up the un-numbered skeins before you do all the others and accidentally mix something up lol

I am absolutely going to use this idea, too!

Toaster!!! So cute!

The cheese tax!! So glad to see the advents together, so much more impressive than each skein alone
Chili recipe please Kent!!!
Loved seeing the yarn on the strings! What a great idea!
Toni Lypsi does it 💜💜💜
I really hope Twice Sheered Sheep does a similar Advent again next year! I feel like everything is useful and it is so well put together!
I am with you on getting organized when you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed. Glad you had a chance to get all those fun advents out back together!
Natalie: I want to make this blanket for myself.
Toaster: Haha, yeah, no.
Hahaha
Twisted yarn advent has a whole lot of oranges
Love the bunny one and the snow globe, the chelesea yarns, and the rose hibisicus & the yarn that came with it, evergreen charm is beautiful

Also for the extra advent bags left over, you and Kent could make lil advents for each other next year! :)
Toni Lipsy from TL Yarn Crafts does the string! so excited to see all of these lined up finally!

haha my advent colorways are chronological with the season - about 2-3 colorways per episode! and the big brown bag is bloomies (bloomingdales)

Stash organizing is like shopping lol
The ring is indeed for colorwork but can also be used for crochet to tension the yarn and it's meant to stay up to the knuckle. It's so gorgeous!

I think I love Homespun yarns the best ❤ 🧶💫 I’m all about the names !! Lol 😊😊 you have such FUN advents , even for Toaster. How cute 🐾🎄✌️

Amazon sells these bags you vacuum the air out of. You need those. They come with a travel size vacuum

I only have 1 yarn advent and am already working with the yarn, but maybe next year I can have more than 1 and can do this as well, looks so cool!
Love the portable yarn carrier! That is on my wishlist!
I started doing the string thing after you mentioned it the other day and it works amazingly!
I have the Disney mini brands advents but I get people/items in a different order. I find that curious
I'm laughing so hard at having to cut out the Alexa timer, we have one too and it always talks to us if someone in a video says anything remotely like Alexa 😂😂😂
Be careful of them going around the loop and moving drone day one to the last day. I would fine and end stopper.
Love this and I definitely have a fade advent on my list for next year!

No one is going to comment on you holding Captain America and saying Assembled?!?! 😂 His famous line in End Game is “Avengers Assemble!!”
