    I love the colours in your shawl it reminds me of a jumper I no longer have! It was my favourite!
    The colours really do suit you! 😘🤗🙌🙌🙌

    Hi Kelly, I found it very reassuring that I’m not alone with unfinished projects that I’d lost interest in. Your yarn clubs look very exciting and it’s my first Advent with you this year and I’m in love with week one. 😊

    If I didn't have unfinished projects I would have so much more room in my house!! Thank you for the podcast. Your shawl is beautiful. x

    Hi Kelly 😘🤗🙌🙌🎄
    Thank you for the beautiful yarn delivery I received today!
    I’m thrilled to bits and Alun is too , hopefully the ink arrives tomorrow so I can print the pattern to start his jumper- he loves Navy and the yarn is so soft!
    Ioan Tomos and Meleri were so happy to receive their sock made from you
    r yarn!
    Still more to knit 😸I’m hooked on knitting socks as well now!
    I love watching your videos
    Gorgeous ❤️💜❤️

    Hi Kelly, it's always so lovely to see you. I love the yarn clubs you're going to have, the yarn looks so pretty. 🥰

    Just so lovely to see you Kelly, a joy. I have a half finished quilted panel from ten years ago and I bring it out every Christmas to finish it, do a few stitches, put it away and forget about it for another year. The wadding is wrong and I need to start again really. So you are not alone. Love the sock club idea! Take care till next week. Xx

    That is perfect Dahlia Club project bag fabric and the “night before Christmas” embroidery would be a charming small pillow on a bed, waiting for you to hunker down at night!
    We are blanket WIP twins - my Bits and Bobs and crochet stripe blankets are at the same stage as yours and my Squiddle Village blanket is maybe 3/4 finished. I’ve lost count of how many other WIPs I have, but they were all cast on with love and deserve my attention, so
    I think it’s time to join
    Finish Up February in 2025 and see how many I can finish.
    Thank you for the nudge, dear Kelly! 💕

    Kelly, please please don’t feel bad about unfinished projects. I always look at my unfinished projects as an accomplishment they serve a purpose for that time to comfort me. Let’s face crafting is a lot cheaper than therapy.❤ I probably have about 40 projects in bags. There’s no guilt there only happiness. if they get finished, that is wonderful and something to celebrate. I have been so blessed as an adult to have money to buy crafting supplies. As a child I wanted, but I could not have. I’m really thankful for your friendship during the years. I’ve been so happy to come and visit with you on TH-cam. I always get inspired and see things I want to make you always cheer me up and make me feel wanted.🥰🎄 Let’s make this the best Christmas ever❣️

    Hi Kelly I’m so excited about your yarn clubs for next year and thanks for doing the postage for half price 😊it will definitely make it affordable to take part ❤

    Your not bonkers I have things unfinished for just as long. Nothing is a waste as long as you have enjoyed the process of creating it

  • @deborahwhittingham2544

    Oh Kelly, we’re so similar! I had an almost identical granny stripe blanket to yours that I knew I’d never finish so I turned it into a cushion cover - I bet if you got a bolster cushion pad you could just see up the edges with an envelope type closure and repurpose your lovely blanket. I love mine and feels good to make those hours count xxxx

    I would love that blanket you've started. I would finish it for my daughter's day centre she runs for people with dementia, Blankets are for long term making I think. I have one I started in 2020 and I found a cardigan I started way way before that. I did keep it out with the intention of finishing it. As for us not watching you, as if we wouldn't xx

    Thank you Kelly for a lovely chat this afternoon! It’s pouring with rain so it’s an afternoon indoors knitting for me today! I think it’s very therapeutic to have a clear out of old crafty stuff occasionally. If you’re definitely not going to finish anything - get rid! It’s good to pass stuff on to friends who will finish stuff or indeed use the wool. My local hospice shop accepts craft items willingly as they always sell apparently. Take care and thank you x

    I am really enjoying the cowl. On the last bit of ribbing!

    • @layfamilyyarn
      @layfamilyyarn  3 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      whoop whoop, i cannot wait to see your version. I am using all the original prototype and we types so the colours may be a bit different. X

  • @shirleysherratt5378

    I have more than my fair share of unfinished projects but that doesn’t seem to stop me casting on another one. I am loving the cowl. Mine is looking different to yours and that is the beauty of it. Individual. Perfect colours too for a Christmas present for one of my daughters. 💖

    • @layfamilyyarn
      @layfamilyyarn  5 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      Yours will look different, mine is the original prototype and we tweaked the marshmallow. Also the first half of mine is knit with a completely different floof🤣 i cannot wait to see yours x

    I think I have got whip’s that are older than yours. I have a habit of stopping when I’m nearly at the end a project and I hate to think how many I’ve got. But I do love to start a new project it brings me great job 😂

    Thank you so much for coming and sharing your Crafting with me. I always enjoy seeing you and visiting. I think your blanket is lovely and would make a great scarf. Just something to hang at the back door to grab as you’re going out to walk the dog or in the garden.
    Oh Kelly, that is so generous to help split on shipping❤❤❤ I do really want to participate next year in your DK minis. If you don’t mind, could you put a notification on TH-cam when you are putting up your minis I don’t use any other social media is my only way of getting news. Thanks again I really appreciate it❣️ I’m so excited about the upcoming year now.

    Hi Kelly, lovely to see you. I'm excited for the new clubs. I love the minis. Can I be cheeky and say I'd love to have your crochet blanket bit to finish. 💙

    Hi Kelly - I may have your ‘Bits and Bobs Blanket’ twin! Mine was cast on on April 6, 2018 and has been laying dormant for at least 5 years!
    I feel so much better about by inaction now - it and I are in good company! 🙂

    • @layfamilyyarn
      @layfamilyyarn  5 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yay!!! What caused you to have a block on it? Does this chat inspire you to blow off its cobwebs……i have just put mine in a drawer🤣😂

    • @judithward7008

      Maybe after Christmas, says ‘Chief Procrastinator’! 😀 I found I didn’t always catch both strands of yarn and it was not easy to ‘frog’! Think the weight could be a factor too. I did finish Kay’s ‘Bits and Bobs Cowl and do love it - it’s so squishy and cosy!

    Hi, Kelly, with regards to the blanket that is “heavy” to knit on, you could do a provisional cast on and knit the rest and then join the two parts afterwards?

    Kelly thanks so much for the warning about the cowl.❤ your yarn clubs look amazing but are you restricted from shipping to Ireland now xxx

      Sadly for the minute yes, however i have a meeting set up for next Tuesday to work with a company to get us regulated. It may not happen until well into the new year but all the work is happening behind the scenes. I will email you, we can always keep things here for you until we are sorted or your son visits. X
