- I'm working mostly on crocheting quick small amigurumi plushies. Items that I think can be that $5 or $6 price range. But most importantly to beat the heat and humidity!!

I think your gold fish looks good either way. Once you put the other fins on, no one will know the fins are upside down. Genna glues on her eyes. Won't hurt to try. I'm enjoying your channel.
Ok thanks!
Also, I love the goldfish, it looks fine as it is, if you put the littler fin by its mouth you’ve got a winner!!
I love everything that you make but that snail was so adorable!!
I love the Gummy Bear with the extra stitches between the arm (Really See The BEAR Now)❣️❣️❣️❣️ I’m so proud of YOU & ALL your changes you try & at least 99.99% of the time your change is A TOTALLY POSITIVE CHANGE for the piece❣️❣️❤️❣️❣️YOU CONTINUE TO AMAZE ME EVERY TIME & I Love Watching Every One Of Your Posts❣️❣️Thank you soooo much for sharing with all of us‼️❤️‼️Loves Ya’, barbie
Thank you Barbara!! I am having so much fun doing these!
I like the large flowers petals😊
Thank you!
The purple flower pop is super cute!!!
Thank you!😘 So you don't think the petals were too big?
@@KnottingHookCrochet no it doesn’t bother me I think it’s beautiful!!
I think the gnome
would look great with a flower on his hat
I liked the purple flower. The burger is cute, well all of them are really.
🙂
Thanks Jenny
I love the purple flower petals! Keep them!
I melt the back of the eye post and push it flat to secure it better. Ive also seen people add a small piece of felt to the post before adding the back for the eye.
The sunflower 🌻 turtle 🐢 is beautiful and I want one 😂
He did turn out really nice!
You got so much done!
It doesn’t feel like it 😂
Hey Robin. I would put a piece of holly on the Gnome. He is so cute!
Great idea! Thank you 😊
I had to wait soooo long for my premier order that had white! If you didn’t know, Hobby Lobby’s Baby Bee has the line called Adore-A-Ball which is EXACTLY like parfait chunky. And because I got impatient I went there and got Angel which is their white.
You know, I knew that but do you think the thought ever crossed my mind to go to Hobby Lobby. NO! 😂😂😂
The purple flower pop is personally my favorite!! I love the colors and I don’t think the petals are too big at all!! I will need to try that pattern for sure!!
Also I love your content. I think youre variations are so creative and intriguing!! Sending cold front hopes for you!
Thanks 😊
I could use a cold front! 😊
Suggestion for the sunflower pops. If you made curved 5he green and made it longer you would have jalapeño poppers
Wouldn’t I need to stuff it with cream cheese 😉
@@KnottingHookCrochettouche 😊
Love the gnome and purple flower! I think for the gnome I would try and crochet some holly leaves and maybe sew on some red beads for berries on his hat since he would make a nice Christmas gnome.
Sounds great!
I too have noticed others hot gluing the eyes in place. Yes Genna does it. I’ve not tried yet.
I’m not sure it’s safe and secure to do it.
Hi Robin. Purple and green is one of my favorite color combos so love the flower pop! Who is going to know the goldfish is upside down other than you? I think it looks great! My favorite is the sun flower turtle, so pretty! I got one skein of Chocolate yarn that was back ordered from Herrschners. Still waiting on the darn white and I believe a mustard skein. Sure hope that white comes from Premier. I definitely don’t get as much made as you do. I must be ultra slow, but I’m always interrupted too. I didn’t do a Plushie Wednesday yesterday because we had to bring our 15 year old pug to the vet yesterday and have her put to sleep. Broke out hearts, so needless to say I wasn’t in the mood to do a video. ❤❤
I wouldn’t say you’re ultra slow all my plushies but 2 were very small so it looks like a lot. We were talking about $5 items so I was on a mission! I’m sorry for your loss and I wouldn’t have been in a video mood either! You take care of yourself and do what makes you feel good!
I just wanted to say i absolutely love the popping purple flower!! I haven't seen amything like that and I would really like to try and make one myself...so thank you so much for showing us all your makes!!
😊❤🪻🧶
Thank you so much!
The purple flower looks perfect to me! I love those petals.
Thank you! 😊
I love the purple flower. Its perfect.
Thank you! 😊
I love the gnome and sunflower turtle. You have made loads again. I'm sitting crocheting velvet and chenille earwarmers and scrunchies for a craft fair tomorrow.
Good luck! I hope you sell everything 😊🥰
Some great makes 👌
Thank you
I have been doing a marathon of all your videos and it’s been fun watching your progress. I don’t use a hot glue cause I feel in hot weather the glue softens.
I use fabric glue and have had no problems .i kinda tested with my very active 3,5 and 6 year old great grandsons.
In one of your videos you mentioned buying your pattern’s direct. Please give more info.
I am so messy with glue! I try to avoid it. I'm not sure what you mean buying patterns direct? This video is from a while back and I don't remember what i was talking about 😂
You have such a good variety of choices! My fav are: The violet POP flower, I would by that in a market! The size is perfect! My 2nd are the small gunny-bears, I think they would make perfect charms for purse, back parckm keychains, etc. They dont need eyes, those who love them will recognize! The chicken nugget and cheezeburger are so cute and funny! If you just do 2 stitches for the eyes, they would make great stress "ball" mini plusghie! Caracters from anime are always fun, the persons who play those games likes to collect items from theirs games! As for the fish, only YOU knows, the buyrs looks at it, and like it or not, and they think its made like this on purpose! Sugg.: I've seen some people crochet theirs toys all kind of colors, and not necessairely the "real" ones. ...I've seen some really cute pink and magenta bees (pale pink for wings), or orange and red with pale orange for the wings, etc..., same for the frogs...sometime you could be surprise are beautiful it become! I send you lots of goood vibes so get AC the fastest!!! Hot weather like this just take me down, humidity gives me migraines, etc. I had to go sleep to my friends once ours AC was on repairs for 3-4 days and it was 42 Celcieus outside!!! (I ive in Montreal Canada, ours summers had become weather over 30 Celcius for one day, thunder storms the next one...all summer long!!!)
Thank you for all the tips!! 🤞fingers crossed for a quick repair!!
When I do safety eyes I use hot glue and the backing. I put a little bit of glue before I snap it on, want to be sure it stays. I have a precision glue gun so just a little can come out.
I tried doing that with e6000 and made a mess 😂I think I would make a mess with my cheapo-depo glue gun. I just decided to stitch on eyes for this frog.
if your able to try a hotel for a night nor two . take a stay cation to escape the heat.
So many cute projects. When I saw your gnome I love the beard but I was thinking a trim to give hime a tapered look. Just a thought. He looks cute as is. I think gnomes are popular so I would think he would sell.
I certainly would if we didn’t have 2 cats a dog and a chicken! John put in my window unit then I went and picked up another. For now they are working ok with all the rooms closed off the living room dining room and kitchen area cooled down pretty good. BUT we had rain come through and the outside temp dropped by 12degrees! I was thinking about the angled beard but once I cut I can’t go back so I have to look at it for a few days😂😂😂
I am also waiting for my AC to be fixed. It’s been out since mid June!
June is way too long!!
Love your stuff! I think my gdaughter would like the snail. She had me make her one. I used worsted weight.
I think sometimes I’m just too picky for my own good. You know what they say we are our own worst critic 😂
Unravelling looks so much better than brushing out! Love it! Your collection is getting more and more eclectic 🧡. We've been in the 90s with no a/c and I am feeling for you
I like the beard this way too! I hope you at least have a window shaker in a room that you can escape to. I just went and bought a 2nd window shaker and had John install them both today one in the living room and one in the dining room which is really one big room. Shut all the doors leading to all other rooms and that is where I will be until the unit is fixed. I dread seeing my next electric bill 😖
I am sure my landlords would let me put one in, and there are small rolling ones that people have here. I think I was in denial after we got through the heat last summer and didn't think we would have another one. Ugh! But I did take a drive and cooled down in my car.
@@KnottingHookCrochetWas the gnome in the pattern books or is it online? I think I want to do all the beards that way
@@AntisocialAuntie this one is online
@@AntisocialAuntie I did that too😂😂
i use fabri-tac for sticking eyes in after the fact and sticking on felt patches and mouths, and it sticks real good! it dries hard but hot glue would too
Do the eyes stay in ok like that?
Thanks! I’ll have to give it a test
I love all your makes, your going to have a fabulous market. I love watching your channel.💞hope your ac is working real soon.
Thank you so much! I hope so too 😊
@craftysue
I made my bee with black wings and it came out so adorable.
I thought about doing that!
I’ve done the snail pattern too and I’ve seen others doing it. No one’s snail sits up right so you didn’t do anything wrong with it!
Oh good! Thanks
Love them all even the ones you think r not perfect there still cute to sell and the fish I like it just finish it. As to hot gluing the safety eye I seen Jena do that on a video, I don’t think I would do that to sell them I believe they can be just pulled out that way and it would be more hazardous, I think that crazy to do it that way. I’d rather invest in felt eyes and glue those, it’s a lot safer, just my opinion. Just remember there special and hand made.
I was very skeptical about hot gluing the eyes and a lot of people are saying the same, not to do it. I think I agree!! Do you know where to get smaller felt eyes. I was using a punch and cutting my own but I very quickly broke my punch. The only ready made that I have come across are an inch or bigger.
I love seeing all of your amigurumi adventures. You and I are alike when it comes to wanting things to be as close to perfect as possible. If you want I can email you and fill you in on my fails and successes when it comes to markets and making things for them. I know every area is different, but I have the same mind set as you when it comes to prices. My grandkids and their friends can only want so many plushies, so with markets I get to do what I love and make a few bucks doing it. I will never get rich doing this, but money is not everything. FYI I hate telling you this, but the ac went out in my car, I had to wait 3 weeks for parts and it ended up costing my just over $1,200.00. I did not go anywhere unless it was absolutely necessary. I have no idea how you cope with no ac in your home. Fingers crossed that you get yours fixed quickly.
Absolutely I would love for you to email me!
Love all your makes! where can i find that adorable frog pattern?
It is a free pattern on IG instagram.com/p/Cvq46qKOBUz/
I personally would not use hot glue on the eyes. To me this would be a huge choking hazard. For Mable the chicken, I have better luck sewing the mouth and eyes last. Loving all your makes!
Yes, I'm thinking I need to remove these mouths and redo them. Then any new chickens do them last.
The gnome! ❤️
🥰
Love the burger ❤
Thank you
Loved your video! ❤ What pattern did you use for the hamburger?
It was on Instagram, I no longer have it favored and I don't remember, Sorry.
The way I do the Mabel chickens are sew closed, surface crochet the red top part, embroider the eyes, and then the beak last 😂 if i put the beak on any earlier, its normally a row too low by accident 😂
Mine always ends up sideways. I'm going to try it your way next time.
Aww, wow, what's the pattern for that sunflower turtle?. So cute 😍
It is sort of an All from Jade pattern but I tweaked it. I used different legs and flower petals. I like the body shape from her pattern.
ive heard of ppl using fabric hot glue on the eyes! that might stick better than regular hot glue. Also, another alternative for kids could be felt eyes!
Do you know where I can find felt eyes small enough. Most of the ones I have seen are an inch and bigger.
Do you have a recommendation for worsted low-pill acrylic from Herrschner's? I'm in WI, so ordering from them would be a great way for me to support a more local business.
I don’t use much anti pilling but when I do I use premier and I’m pretty sure they carry it.
Where did you find the mushroom popper with the butt? I’ve searched instagram and can’t find it? I’m binge watching all your videos 🧶
Here you go instagram.com/p/CtPEO03tz35/?img_index=1
I checked Walmart+ and Amazon. They both have cream but don't list a true white at all. Walmart delivery is way out there but amazon says they deliver this month.
It's so odd, that white is so hard to find!
What is the color you used for the body of the sunflower turtle? It’s perfect for some pies I’m working on 😂
It is Premier Parfait Chunky in the color of Toffee. Pies sound interesting!!
Love the Gnome is that your pattern?
I wish 😂 It is actually a pattern by Theresas Crochet Shop www.etsy.com/listing/1410912254/
Thank you
I love your armagrumis and I notice you wear glasses and you still make them with numerber 6 velvet but how in the world can you see the sticbes. It's driving h me nuts...lol my eyes can't be that bad that I'm the only crocheted who can't do this. Please if u can take the time to help me with some tips I would so much appreciate it.
Well I can’t always see them. I feel for them take my time and count as I go to make sure I got them all. The more you work with it the easier it gets. Plus make sure you have really good lighting!
Im sure if you crochet one more round on the bottom it would stand up fine
Add snowflake buttons to gnome hat, idea.
Good idea!
What pattern did you use for the gummy bears
I don't remember it's been so long but it was a youtube tutorial.
The fish looks good upside down just put a small fin on his back
😅 aw, what's the bee pattern?
The bee was me 😂 I did increases to 24 then 2 rounds of yellow 2 rounds of black then back to the yellow to make a ball.
I didn’t like the way the gummy bears looked. The chickens I was having trouble with the beak too. I didn’t like the way it looks. I started putting them vertically instead of horizontal. Looks much better.
I will give it a try.
I make the gummy bears with little eyes and call them seeing gummy bears. People seem to like them better. However for toddlers I do not use safety eyes. I am not even sure why they are called safety eyes, lol . Once you put a key chain on those smaller bears why not ask $5? Thanks for sharing with us.
The smaller ones are definitely cuter and $5 would be a good price!
Half my chickens look like they are smirking so I call them smirken chickens
OMGosh I bet they look cute!
To long. Supposed to be snails and small things. Al we have heard is about the heating heating heating
