Nice kits. I haven't order kits a couple years. But did like them. They are nice for people that can't get our and choose yarn. Thanks for sharing Jennifer.💜💜💜🎉🎉
Jen you're marrying your shrug that you made for Mary Maxim week is beautiful! I've never tried a crochet kit but I really enjoyed watching other people open them and tell me what they think of them! Thank you for this amazing information!
Thank you for your feedback on Premier Chiao Baby Yarn and Premier Bloom Yarn! They are both amazing collections of yarn which will never disappoint!!!
I was a subscriber to Mary Maxim’s Crochet Kit for just over a year last year. In December I received a softcover crochet pattern book along with my kit. The pattern book was valued at $22. It was sent with a thank you letter too. I was a member with Annie’s for two different blankets and they never sent me a thank you gift. I really like that Mary Maxim appreciates their customers. Also, I love that MM’s kits are packaged in zipper bags as it’s easy to keep the kit together if you can’t immediately start it.
You just showed the red heart super saver "soft white" yarn - I used that yarn to make a wedding afghan & it was beautiful - the problem was finding a lot of it in the same lot for me to make it !! I haven't been in a club but it may be the way for me to get the same lot numbers which is so important to me !! Jennifer pet the puppies for me as pitties are nanny dogs & I love them !! 💕💕
Thank you for sharing this information about Mary Maxim’s kit clubs. I’ve often thought about trying the crochet club. I like the yarn that you received this time. 💜🙏🏻
These are a great kits, especially when you've lost your crojo and need a kick in the motivation pants. Looking forward to seeing what you get next month! 😊👍🧶
50 year knitter here. I love that knitting kit!!!!! I would NOT make 3 separate panels. I have long long circular needles. So I would run all three sections in one piece. Hate, hate long finishing work. Also those wonderful large skeins mean less ends to weave in. I've tried to crochet but I can not coordinate my left hand. Brain block. Tried to learn continental knitting style. They say it's faster but once again brain block. I'll keep trying though. I wanted to say thank you to Cinnamon. I love premier yarn as well. You keep me up to date with their new yarns and sales. Only one problem-- so much yarn and so little time. Cinnamon I get your time issues. It's just to easy to have multiple projects going and sometimes I lose a knitting bag only to find it months later in my yarn room.
Have a knitter make the blanket for you!! Don’t waste your time doing something you don’t love. You already told us what you really want to do. Take care!
Your your own boss Jennifer, make what you want for your site. Your only one person. Don’t burn yourself out. I do the same to get ideas. If I’m at a loss, I do the good old stand by, I make granny squares! Sooner or later the color, or stitch will wake up my muse. If not, I have pretty squares for another project later. (Sorry so long). Of course Pinterest, and maybe Instagram more & more inspire me now, and I save lots of pics for later!
Good morning happy everything lol SOO this yellow blanket is sooo cute the bee symbol is beautiful I hope you get to it sooner than later. LOVE and you dressed young fresh vibrant ❤
Love your pretty girly look today! It's really cute💕 I always liked the idea of joining a crochet club. Thanks for sharing the pros and cons. Certainly something for me to consider 😍
Ive never had a yarn subscription and probably wont. I dont have a yarn collection because I dont have any place to have a collection. Plus it often takes me a long time to complete a project. But I do love seeing the projects and seeing all the various yarns. Thank you for showing us these crochet and knit projects. That baby blanket kit is really cute!
I am fairly new to your channel and I am just learning how to crochet. I can knit some and I really love you! You are fun and so relatable. I also love tea. I used to buy Teavana but since they are no available i am buying Tiesta tea; they have some awesome flavors and some majorly delicious ones around the holidays. Thank you for being you!
Loved seeing you in your new beautiful cardi shrug😊 Good value for sure for your very first kit but, I prefer to be able to choose the yarn I want. I will purchase ours when they are on sale 😊 Thanks so much for showing us about the kits and tarn.😊 Hope you have a wonderful blessed day 🙏🏻🤗💖
I have been receiving the Mary Maxim kit of the month for YEARS - I originally started with the knit kit - I loved them! Then I learned how to crochet, and switched to the crochet kit - I love it too! I might not always like the pattern, but I always love the yarn, and sometimes use the yarn on different projects. To say that I have a stash of kits would be an understatement 😊 BUT I will eventually get to them - along with the occasional afghan kit (because you can’t beat 30% off) and mystery boxes. Mary Maxim is my “go to” here in Canada - mostly because I live about 30 minutes from the store!
The off white would also be great to do the interior layer of the knit caps on the knitting machine!! That way you only do one layer of a more "special" yarn on the outside!!!
I get both the knit and crochet kit from Mary Maxim. Most of the time I love them. I will be honest I have not actually done any of the projects yet, but I do use the yarn. I have been doing this for several months now and the payment comes out between the 10th and the 13th. Was kinda disappointed with the April Knit kit, but excited for the crochet kit.
I am currently making the baby blanket right now and once you do the first 9 rows you just continue rows 2-9 so it is really easy. Cant wait to finish so I can pack it away for the next great grandbaby.
My daughter gifted me the Mary Maxim knit club for my birthday so I’m excited to see that come in. She did it Monday and thinking it would be in today hahaha she’s so cute. I’m excited to see what this month will be.
I don’t get a club subscription because I am addicted to making sweaters. If there was a club with sweaters only, it would be too expensive. If you have a smartphone, you can put all payments on your calendar and it will keep track of them all in one place (in your settings). It makes it so easy. You can cancel them right from the settings instead of having to search for it on the website of the subscription.
I didn't know that knit crate went out of business. I've never done a crafty subscription. I usually have to much going on. Maybe some day things will slow down. lol
Good morning Jen I don't do any kits cause I have a hard enough time getting things made that I want to make so it would probably just sit. I love some of the kits but I would rather just work on my own. Love the shrug today looks cute on you.
Happy wed. Its a gloomy cold day here in Ontario...the patterns are beautiful...as a knitter the knitting terms are weird 😅. Maybe you can find a volunteer to finish your knit blanket you cant get done
I’ve been trying to knit for about 42 years I have a knitting machine the Addie king and I’m having a hard time with that I have dislexia so a lot of trouble with hand coordination
Thank you! This was really fun and informative 😁 I love doing the kits because I like getting mail 🤣😂🤣 The only fabric arts kit I have done was Annie's and it was fun but not worth the money . However they introduced me to Premier Yarns and I will be forever grateful. 😁 I also had trouble with not getting boxes and then late boxes and so I ended up paying for two boxes I never received. It was mess. But I am willing to try again. lol Hope this finds all of you happy and healthy.
I cancelled Mary Maxim because my last 2 orders the yarn skeins are total tangled barf balls. I spent hours untangling the 3skeins of baby ciao. It’s discontinued so that’s why it’s in the club. Not good. They did refund me though after many emails. The other kit was one they are selling for $80 and the skeins were also barfy but not as bad. 😢
Most knitting patterns will have a stitch guide, so you know what they mean for ssk etc....and you could figure out the multiple and make a small baby blanket using yarn you like, in a size that you could finish, maybe a bulkier weights and large needles, for a fur baby rug....I find lots of ❤SS at resale shops, some is softer than others...and I really hate paying for shipping, so no thanks 😢😮
Good Morning! Just used your link and joined the crochet club. Thanks for explaining the pros and cons. LOVE that cardigan. It just went on my Crochet in 2023 playlist!
Once I knitted a blanket that took me nearly a year to complete (worked on it at least once a week). When it was completed I gave it to my daughter as a gift. She called me a week later and said she had to throw it away because my grand baby had snagged it. I was so heart broken. And sworn right then and there to never waste my time on a large knitting project ever again. 😢
A subscription to a club is kinda like getting a surprise every time. I might check that out. What do you think of the crochet magazines? I can't decide which one to order.
I like crochet world. I also get crochet! But they are so size limited with their patterns. Crochet world is more home stuff and wearbles mixed in. And crochet! Is mostly wearbles for small people
What are you wearing? It’s so colorful & pretty. I looked on your links but couldn’t find it. Your Beach cardi is very pretty! I love the lacy stitchwork!
Hi Laurel - it's Jen's shrug pattern from mary Maxim week - made a bit longer. She talked about it in her video 'Cool Crochet dog mat, Octos, and MM recap' a couple of weeks ago😊❤
You could make tubes on the knitting machine and join them together to make a blanket (like Carrie Penny recently did) or make a bunch of hats and donate them. Not trying to be a pain. Just trying to help if you're stressed about all your RHSS! Also, have you tried their brushed yarn? If so, did you like it or hate it?
Can I ask a question please? You know your hands don’t like certain yarns, if it’s made up into a garment does it affect your skin on other parts of your body? I can’t have lambs wool ANYWHERE! it brings me out in hives 😂
Nice kits. I haven't order kits a couple years. But did like them. They are nice for people that can't get our and choose yarn. Thanks for sharing Jennifer.💜💜💜🎉🎉

Beautiful yarns, but I’d rather buy my own yarns! But thanks for sharing seen some I want to get! ❤🤗

I love it! Definitely going to try it!
I got the Mary Maxim kit before and I may do it again.
Thanks for sharing. I may have to try the club
Good 🌅 morning young lady. Hope you have a great day.
I also have the crochet kit. It doesn't look hard. Some people don't care for the gray with the yellow, but I do
My daughter gifted me the Mary Maxim knit club for my birthday so I’m excited to see that come in. She did it Monday and thinking it would be in today hahaha she’s so cute. I’m excited to see what this month will be.

Thanks for showing us kits Sweet Girl !❤
Thank you for sharing these kits. Both projects would be pretty, but I’m not a kit club type of person.
I know a lot of people arent.
I didn't know that knit crate went out of business. I've never done a crafty subscription. I usually have to much going on. Maybe some day things will slow down. lol
Good morning Jen,☕️🧶😊
Good morning 💜
GM Jenn, it is cold here in Ontario as well
Love Ur cute braids
Thanks for sharing!!! Have a good morning!!!
I've done some of Annie's kit clubs for a very short time. I really love that baby blanket one you got!
Good morning Jen I don't do any kits cause I have a hard enough time getting things made that I want to make so it would probably just sit. I love some of the kits but I would rather just work on my own. Love the shrug today looks cute on you.
Hi Jennifer I have the crochet kit and I love Ciao Baby and if you crochet that kit can you do a tutorial for the baby blanket
I would love the crochet monthly kit but postage (shipping) to u.k. is ridiculously high.
Happy wed. Its a gloomy cold day here in Ontario...the patterns are beautiful...as a knitter the knitting terms are weird 😅. Maybe you can find a volunteer to finish your knit blanket you cant get done
I was getting the quarterly crochet afghan kit but fell behind on getting them done. Seems to happen with all of us. New surprise yarn is always fun!
I’ve been trying to knit for about 42 years I have a knitting machine the Addie king and I’m having a hard time with that I have dislexia so a lot of trouble with hand coordination

Hi Jennifer I love the afghan kit and the crochet kit..I wonder what the kits and shipping would cost in south African Rands...thanks for sharing..

Oh my! I wouod have cried!
REd Heart Super Saver is $12 here in Australia 🤔
Wow
Been wanting to try a kit. Maybe.
Good moring ❤ have you tried Annie's crochet and knit club . I like them a lot they use premier yarns in there club. I never tried mary maxim yet .
A subscription to a club is kinda like getting a surprise every time. I might check that out.
What do you think of the crochet magazines? I can't decide which one to order.
I like crochet world. I also get crochet! But they are so size limited with their patterns. Crochet world is more home stuff and wearbles mixed in. And crochet! Is mostly wearbles for small people
@@CinnamonStitches well, I'm definitely not a small person but I make wearables almost exclusively. Thanks for the input!
What are you wearing? It’s so colorful & pretty. I looked on your links but couldn’t find it. Your Beach cardi is very pretty! I love the lacy stitchwork!
Hi Laurel - it's Jen's shrug pattern from mary Maxim week - made a bit longer. She talked about it in her video 'Cool Crochet dog mat, Octos, and MM recap' a couple of weeks ago😊❤
You could make tubes on the knitting machine and join them together to make a blanket (like Carrie Penny recently did) or make a bunch of hats and donate them. Not trying to be a pain. Just trying to help if you're stressed about all your RHSS! Also, have you tried their brushed yarn? If so, did you like it or hate it?
I love Mary Maxim crochet club. Rarely disappointed.
Do you ever check Herrshners? They have great prices on their own name brand yarns and the yarns are good!
A lot of herrschnerrs house brand yarns are really rough on my hands.
Could I join the afghan clubs based in Wales UK
Jenn what is the washing instructions on the Ciaco Baby I couldn't find on the web page. Thank You Hugs
Wouldn’t you be able to do the pattern on your knitting machine because it is done in panels ?
Love the shrug you're wearing. Can you please let me know the multicolor yarn and colorway that is used? I have not tried any kits yet.
It is hand dyed wool
It's gorgeous and speaks to me. Is it still available?
No its was last years clearance
Thanks so much. I'll just keep staring in the meantime!!!!!! 😄
Can I ask a question please? You know your hands don’t like certain yarns, if it’s made up into a garment does it affect your skin on other parts of your body? I can’t have lambs wool ANYWHERE! it brings me out in hives 😂
Yes it does.
@@CinnamonStitches you poor love xx
I wasn't happy with the red hesrt,heart, I am a beginner a d figure it would e good for taking out alot. Lol don't u stand the terms yet.
Thank you I appreciate your honest insight, it was very helpful.😊
