Video challenge idea. Roll a D20/spin a wheel/etc, the number corresponds to one of the cubes in the shelves behind you. You have to pick a yarn from that cube and turn it into a project!
hear me out: use up your shelf yarn that isnt your "staple" brands then buy some clear cubbies to go inside the cubes, fill with juicy yarn and lily yarn -clear bins will let us still see a colorful background behind you -yarn you dont really use often and has been sitting gets used up -juicy yarn is Off the floor but can be easily dropped into a cubby rather than precariously stacked (since i know you want to avoid restacking your shelves)
I would just email joanns and tell them you got the wrong tings, let them send you the right thing or cansel what you did not get and give you the money back? Let them send you a "resend" paper to put on the package and send it back? That is how I use to do ( I do not live in the us but anuway that would be like that everywhere?? ) Love that you are back!! And love your videos always a thumb up! Happy new year!
@@braindrain27 that happened to me too and I kept it because i already called them and they assured me it wouldn’t be doubled then it was and I saw there could be fees to ship it back so I kept it cause the yarn was already here😅
Not sure I would say I am discovering my “passion” but I am certainly more comfortable. I have taken to carrying a project with me when we leave home now. I am looking forward to developing a passion for the craft! I think that is happening this year!!
My daughter made her little brother a blanket from such yarn. He loved it. As he could walk he dragged his blankie with himself and slept in every corner of our House laying on his blanket. He put his little Fingers through the holes and loved it.
Doing cross stitch for years close to 40 years don't worry about it its such a small piece. I really should do some I've neglected it for crochet for a few years.
I like the dishcloths as separate pieces if you can’t find a pair, also I love written patterns, because I can cross off things like a checklist so I can feel more accomplished
I loved seeing you finish your WIPs. Looking forward to the next year of you. I feel like 10 bags and 10 shirts might be a lot, then again I don't know how long they take you versus the stock you want to make. Thanks for the long one, I'm glad you're back from your break.
As a fellow “birthday after Christmas” human, I threw a fit when my mom would lump gifts together because everyone else gets gifts on their birthday any other time of the year 😂
Aww....that sucks. I have two goddaughters that have December/October birthday, so I send them half birthday presents during the summer. I don't think they should have to wait a full year for gifts! Lol
Was thinking of a great video idea. You could take us through the process of taking the picture, then editing it, and how you upload it to your shop. 😊
I use the Bernat blanket and baby yarn for the baby blankets and a K hook. The new mom's love them for outer blankets and tummy time blankets. They was well on Delicate and low heat. Some I have made are over 9 years old and look as good as the day they were made.
My nephew had a granny stitch blanket when he was a baby (well untill it literally fell apart and he only had a little corner when me was 6) he took it everywhere with him he wouldn't sleep with out it lol he never hurt his little fingers in the holes so maybe go for granny if you make a blanket and with your super speedy hands in 2 days it be well finished with a shell trimm lol x
That would be really cool if you made a Valentine sweater. Also, we have 10 inches of snow and a half inch ice here. Our first big one this year in West Virginia hope you’re having a good morning.❤
Seeing you pull out your crossstitch and say, "oh I know I why stopped... I messed up this little section." Same! I have one that I really need to get back out. 😢😂
As for the wash cloths: in the end, they use up more yarn and are bigger than a bandana. And you sell those apart too. Just let people choose if they want to buy them separately or not? Put them on there!
I have just bought the pattern, although I have already knitted the hat. Just want to support you because I like your patterns so much Greetings from Germany ❤
I made my daughter a baby blanket and used the recommended hook size, she loves that she can stick her fingers and toes in them when I made her a smaller stitched blanket she got mad she couldn’t do it ☺️
I missed these vlogs :) Thank you so much for writing the pattern for the beanie! I personally really like patterns so much more than tutorials as well. It’s just easier and quicker honestly. So excited for the drop I will be marking my calendar 😁 Andddd could you please add tassels to the scarf 😩 I feel like it would look great 👌
I was in Joanns over Christmas and saw the juicy couture yarn and was like where is Kelsie? Still missing your vlogmas videos everyday! Looking forward to Friday. This has felt like a week of Mondays so I was glad to see your new video at lunch today!
Love the WIPs you finished! I was excited to see your cross stitch project, and yes, it is very time-consuming. I am self-taught and have been cross stitching for over 50 years. I found your channel while I was looking for crochet tutorials, and I'm "hooked" 😅 I haven't crocheted in over 45 years. I only made a 3 strand baby blanket in single crochet with a size Q hook. It was fun to make and my cousin loved it for her baby. Can't wait to see the baby blanket you make! Thanks for all you do. 😘
Oooo!!! You got my favorite Bernat Blanket Yarn colors!! I adore Handsome Guy and the lovely blue. They make great amigurumi plushies. They dont shed nearly as much as other chenille and they are stronger so they dont snap as easily. 💖 Until Zaddycrafts gets more colors, its my main yarn. If they dont want the yarn back, I hope you have fun with them! (And, id be willing to trade for that yarn if you dont want it. 😂)
Glad you wrote up the pattern for the hat. I have made over a dozen to donate over the past month but like you love having a written pattern. It is memorized but want a piece of paper to make notes on. Heading to Ravelry right now.❤
I've made a few baby blankets with Bernat baby blanket yarn. They are so quick to make and come out so soft. There's a pattern that's half double crochet in the back loops only. Comes out really pretty. The baby blanket type versus regular blanket is just the color options.
I'm listening to this as I crochet a filet style baby blanket for my brother and sil baby shower next week 😂 I am using Filet Butterfly Blanket by The Lavendar Chair found on Etsy
Love your vlogs and tutorials. Drop date suggestion of the 28th. Only because of February. When making due dates for myself I like consistency without exceptions. Easier to always remember.
On Christmas, I started your chunky knit beanie for my mom and finished it two days later bc I took breaks and now it’s supposed to snow Friday so she can wear it. 😂
Loving the projects! I've made some market bags using the Ahoy color way and I made a few using Aquamarine from Peaches n' Cream for the straps. It doesn't match exactly, but it works in harmony with the sea greens on Ahoy.
For the cross-stitch project, it does not matter if your bottom stitch slants left to right and the top stitch slants right to left or vice versa. The important thing is that the bottom stitches all slant the same way and the top stitch slant the opposite way. There is no right or wrong way. If you want a tip, just take out the top stitches, then work it again just sliding the needle under the bottom stitch (this make the bottom stitch the top stitch). It should look like all the other stitches then.
Woah.. inception ?? I was listening to you talk about to yarn you’re choosing to finish the bag with, so I looked up to see and it was the exact same one i was using to crochet currently 😂 I love that teal shade so much.
I think I have a cone of the same cotton yarn from that market bag. I bought it at the thrift shop next door with a cone of the matching blue color. That blue and the orange match my jobs colors and I wanted to make bandanas for my coworkers. The bag looks great!
universe literally screaming at you to make that baby blanket I guess lol. i will also be started one for my nephew who popped out a MONTH EARLY so now it isn't ready for him
Aw idk if you've posted a video about it, but I love your hair!!! I saw one where you said you needed to get it done. But I love the way you have the blonde section by your face!! It looks so good!
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND CAESAR. May it be a safe and prosperous one. Kelsie your vlogs are such a joy to watch. You are just so interesting. While enjoying one of your Vlogmas, I commented on how much I loved your eyewear. I was curious as to what style they were. I would very much like to own a pair. Not sure if you replied or not, but with so many happening at Christmas I neglected to check the comments.
I haven’t finished your video yet, but if you want to do the baby blanket and be done before the shower, you could do a corner to corner blanket. Those work up really fast at least in my opinion they do.
With the January drop change it would be really good to do a ....what I made this month/January drop showcase so you can talk through your top 10 works and pick your favourite/the one that surprised you. That way you're expanding your product range by trying new things each month, reviewing your work to see how you can improve next month. You can also ask for feedback on what people want to see on those videos. I'd watch it and I'm sure everyone else would love to watch too.
Praying for the wildfire happening in Southern California. Praying for the people losing their homes to the Southern California wildfire. Praying for the all the fur babies in the Southern California wildfire. 🥺💔🦋😢
The HORROR on your face when you opened the box 🤣 I seriously thought it was anything but yarn in there
Video challenge idea. Roll a D20/spin a wheel/etc, the number corresponds to one of the cubes in the shelves behind you. You have to pick a yarn from that cube and turn it into a project!
love this idea!
Joanne telling you to make that baby blanket :D
Omg yes
You could sell the wash cloths as a mystery pair, that way you could use up yarn and not have to worry about taking photos.
hear me out:
use up your shelf yarn that isnt your "staple" brands
then buy some clear cubbies to go inside the cubes, fill with juicy yarn and lily yarn
-clear bins will let us still see a colorful background behind you
-yarn you dont really use often and has been sitting gets used up
-juicy yarn is Off the floor but can be easily dropped into a cubby rather than precariously stacked (since i know you want to avoid restacking your shelves)
yessss
Maybe for a video idea since Valentine's is the next holiday and you're doing a drop maybe make Valentine's theme items to sell with January's drop?
I would just email joanns and tell them you got the wrong tings, let them send you the right thing or cansel what you did not get and give you the money back? Let them send you a "resend" paper to put on the package and send it back? That is how I use to do ( I do not live in the us but anuway that would be like that everywhere?? )
Love that you are back!! And love your videos always a thumb up! Happy new year!
I‘m confused too. I just saw a video where somebody got his order twice and just kept it. Is this normal?
Yeah I was confused she didn't mention that. At least she can get what she wanted or her money back
@@braindrain27 that happened to me too and I kept it because i already called them and they assured me it wouldn’t be doubled then it was and I saw there could be fees to ship it back so I kept it cause the yarn was already here😅
I received fabric today that should've been yarn. They refunded my yarn and told me to keep the fabric.
Cesar walking in at 28:07 when you said "HANDSOME GUY" 😂 HILARIOUS 😂
Going on my 3rd year here and I’m so grateful for the “passion” and motivation you’ve given to me in my crochet career ❤️❤️❤️
Not sure I would say I am discovering my “passion” but I am certainly more comfortable. I have taken to carrying a project with me when we leave home now. I am looking forward to developing a passion for the craft! I think that is happening this year!!
My daughter made her little brother a blanket from such yarn. He loved it. As he could walk he dragged his blankie with himself and slept in every corner of our House laying on his blanket. He put his little Fingers through the holes and loved it.
My nephew was the same with his granny stitch blanket he had it tell her only had the corner at 6 lol
Doing cross stitch for years close to 40 years don't worry about it its such a small piece. I really should do some I've neglected it for crochet for a few years.

my husband got me one of your passionknit hoodies for Christmas, it is soo comfy.
That is awesome!
I love the market bag with the handles like you did them. The color was perfect and looked like you designed it that way.
Great progress today. Thanks Kelsie for your dedication to us and all your inspiration!
Hey Kelsie! The two wash clothes would be a unique pay but they are very cute together, I would buy the set :)
And sorry I did a reply I couldn't comment for some reason
As a fellow “birthday after Christmas” human, I threw a fit when my mom would lump gifts together because everyone else gets gifts on their birthday any other time of the year 😂
Aww....that sucks. I have two goddaughters that have December/October birthday, so I send them half birthday presents during the summer. I don't think they should have to wait a full year for gifts! Lol
I love your videos so much thank you so much for consistently posting
Thank you for watching them ☺️
@ you’re welcome!!
40 min video!! You are spoiling us kelsie❣
That bag colour is my favourite of all the Lilys you use and the rainbow hat, stunning just like the vlogmas one xx
2:00 To be honest, I think the colours of the washcloths work great together! They'd make a great set
Was thinking of a great video idea. You could take us through the process of taking the picture, then editing it, and how you upload it to your shop. 😊
Hi, WTG on finishing your WIPs! Your face when you saw the baby blanket yarns and beads. Lol! 🧶🫂
I agree, i vastly prefer a written pattern. Even though i have made that hat, i am going to buy the written pattern. Thank you for posting it.
I use the Bernat blanket and baby yarn for the baby blankets and a K hook. The new mom's love them for outer blankets and tummy time blankets. They was well on Delicate and low heat. Some I have made are over 9 years old and look as good as the day they were made.
I was impressed with all you made. Great progress. 🙂
My nephew had a granny stitch blanket when he was a baby (well untill it literally fell apart and he only had a little corner when me was 6) he took it everywhere with him he wouldn't sleep with out it lol he never hurt his little fingers in the holes so maybe go for granny if you make a blanket and with your super speedy hands in 2 days it be well finished with a shell trimm lol x
Love the scarf you made...the colors are beautiful
The kaleidoscope hat is so cute! I like the colors accidentally lining up!
That would be really cool if you made a Valentine sweater. Also, we have 10 inches of snow and a half inch ice here. Our first big one this year in West Virginia hope you’re having a good morning.❤
Video Idea: keep all labels/cone of the yarn you use for the whole year
Congratulations on finishing your first pattern for 2025
Thanks!
Do the "6 day star blanket" in the baby size for the baby blanket. Good scrap buster too.
The baby size does not take 6 days.
And it's unique!!
Seeing you pull out your crossstitch and say, "oh I know I why stopped... I messed up this little section." Same! I have one that I really need to get back out. 😢😂
I actually think that bag looks a lot better with simple straps! It's easier to look at
I used your v stitch tutorial to crochet a scarf with some yarn my nephew bought me. Thank you! It worked perfect!
Love you Kelsie thank you so much for just being you❤❤❤
As for the wash cloths: in the end, they use up more yarn and are bigger than a bandana. And you sell those apart too.
Just let people choose if they want to buy them separately or not? Put them on there!
I have just bought the pattern, although I have already knitted the hat. Just want to support you because I like your patterns so much Greetings from Germany ❤
I made my daughter a baby blanket and used the recommended hook size, she loves that she can stick her fingers and toes in them when I made her a smaller stitched blanket she got mad she couldn’t do it ☺️

Andddd could you please add tassels to the scarf 😩 I feel like it would look great 👌

I must the have bought the knit pattern as soon as you posted it! It’s great I hope you put out more.
I love your videos so much Kelsie! I love to watch them while I crochet! I would love to see scrap yarn challenges this year!

I love all of your videos Kelsie, thankyou for everything you do❤️
Thank you so much for watching them ☺️
I actually just pulled a 3-4 year old WIP out last night because I had no idea what to work on 👀👀
Oooo!!! You got my favorite Bernat Blanket Yarn colors!! I adore Handsome Guy and the lovely blue. They make great amigurumi plushies. They dont shed nearly as much as other chenille and they are stronger so they dont snap as easily. 💖

I really like the solid strap with the print body on the bag. You should do more of those.😊
Great to see you Kelsie. Another great video
TH-cam didn't alert me that you were posting again. I have to go back and watch Mondays upload. Happy New Year.
I'm listening to this as I crochet a filet style baby blanket for my brother and sil baby shower next week 😂 I am using Filet Butterfly Blanket by The Lavendar Chair found on Etsy
I have a ton of kids 🤣 I’d make a baby hat or bonnet, diaper cover, and hand mittens 😊 people love those for pictures
Great job on the pattern. I do love the yarn you are using for the beanie. It is so cheerful.
Welcome back. 😊
Leave it in the cross stitch. It is your artistic signature.
I just started my TH-cam channel and I’m so nervous,but once day I hope I get to grow just like you did, I love your videos honestly 💗
I cross stitch and it honestly doesn’t matter which way your Xs go unless you care. You don’t need to frog it if you don’t want to.
Your cross stitch project will be beautiful and no, those few stitches won't matter if they face the other way x
Love your vlogs and tutorials. Drop date suggestion of the 28th. Only because of February. When making due dates for myself I like consistency without exceptions. Easier to always remember.
On Christmas, I started your chunky knit beanie for my mom and finished it two days later bc I took breaks and now it’s supposed to snow Friday so she can wear it. 😂

The clickedy clacking of the knitting needles sounds so nice. Probably the reason why I still love to knit 🙂
Kelsie I found your granny square vest tutorial. Yah!
my first cross stitch has the x’s crossing every which way 😅 I wasn’t paying enough attention and was just happy to finally be working on one lmao
Different color washcloths are fine - one for each of a couple. Won’t get them mixed up. Eg.-hubby could have black/grey , I would have green.
the turtleneck with the vest is perfection
The backward cross stitch section is your "signature" on this piece.
For the cross-stitch project, it does not matter if your bottom stitch slants left to right and the top stitch slants right to left or vice versa. The important thing is that the bottom stitches all slant the same way and the top stitch slant the opposite way. There is no right or wrong way. If you want a tip, just take out the top stitches, then work it again just sliding the needle under the bottom stitch (this make the bottom stitch the top stitch). It should look like all the other stitches then.
Your blanket scarf looks gorgeous love the colors
Hey Kels! My only real resolution is finishing all the WIPs I have. Amazing work as always!!
Oops! My bad! Since I have some of that Premier Yarn, I can start that this week!
OMG your facial expression with the beads.... 😂😂😂
I would suggest taking inventory of your tops from last year, and make tops of the size and yarn that you sold the most of
Stash busting is such a fun challenge
You and Cesar should watch The Wire after Sopranos if you haven't already.
Bob's Burgers is amazing! Underrated IMO. Thanks for posting ❤
4:32 YAY!!!! 🎉You did one already! A
Stamped and counted cross stitch is such a labour of love. I have only done counted for many years, but it’s getting too hard on my eyes.
Woah.. inception ?? I was listening to you talk about to yarn you’re choosing to finish the bag with, so I looked up to see and it was the exact same one i was using to crochet currently 😂 I love that teal shade so much.
i would have a blast organizing your yarn stash by color
I think I have a cone of the same cotton yarn from that market bag. I bought it at the thrift shop next door with a cone of the matching blue color. That blue and the orange match my jobs colors and I wanted to make bandanas for my coworkers. The bag looks great!
Mindless crochet is the best sometimes!
I missed you so much😊
Welcome back!
universe literally screaming at you to make that baby blanket I guess lol. i will also be started one for my nephew who popped out a MONTH EARLY so now it isn't ready for him
YASs queen you finish those WIPS
Looks like Joann's decided that you really need to make a baby blanket for the baby shower 😂
Aw idk if you've posted a video about it, but I love your hair!!! I saw one where you said you needed to get it done. But I love the way you have the blonde section by your face!! It looks so good!

The best easy peasy project for a baby shower would be a " birth cocoon" . It is amazing for babies and mums love it ! ❤
Lmao babies are nasty 😂😂 I can relate i've had 4. I guess I know what's NOT in store for you and Cesar 2025 🎉
A 40 minute video 😍
Praying for the wildfire happening in Southern California.
Praying for the people losing their homes to the Southern California wildfire.
Praying for the all the fur babies in the Southern California wildfire.
🥺💔🦋😢
I got to finish some wips too lol too many in fact lol awesome video ✌️💖🙂🧶
Use that blanket yarn to make that baby blanket girl!!!
