This is just a suggestion but why not take some of those pieces from the Janie crow blanket you started making and frame them and hang them on the wall as art pieces? They are beautifully made. I enjoy your channel so much. You are an inspiration!
Do they have Japanese? I want Japanese (it is not because of Amigurumis, LOL🤣🤣🤣). Some 30 years ago in college, I took about 1-2 academic years of Japanese and loved it.
Thank you. I love the fact that your videos are not very long. I like to watch different content creators and sometimes I don't have the time for back to back long videos.😊
Even as a knitter, I find this video very inspiring and getting my creative juices flowing. Your videos are always filled with wonderful ideas and your enthusiasm is infectious.
Ok my friend - I have a complaint. Your videos are to short! I look forward to it every week and it goes by to quickly! These are STUNNING projects! Thank you for sharing these great ideas.
I find this sometimes with other makers and my solution is to make a watch later play list for your chosen channel...so you can watch/save a few videos in a row...❤
I love the 4 categories you set up for yourself. My ADHD brain thanks you! These are definitely something that will keep my attention and not bore me out of making a blanket ❤
All of the blankets are beautiful. I make an 8 star baby blanket for everyone at my church who has a baby blanket starting one for little boy. Working on it as we travel next week
Have recently discovered your channel, and am enjoying your videos. Have watched a bunch of them back-to-back while knitting my mitred square sock yarn blanket. Do you realize _every_ designer is your favorite designer, _every_ pattern your favorite pattern, _every_ yarn your favorite yarn, and _every_ book your favorite book? 😂😂😂
A wonderful video that is right up my alley! Elise, I have been crocheting since 1973 and to this day, I am addicted to making blankets...and the more intricate and colorful, the better! There are definitely more than a few here that I intend to make! I didn't know you had a website! I will be visiting. I really like yarn reviews as so many of the yarns nowadays pill so badly. I have gotten quite picky about yarns but like you, I have a special fondness for Stylecraft Special DK. I love their color selection and I find the pilling is a bit less than comparable yarns here in the US. I've been a silent follower of yours for several years. I've been on TH-cam since almost the beginning and I've just lost the desire to comment much but I do leave "likes". I enjoy your channel so much and think you do beautiful work! I loved one of your baby blankets so much in the background that I made in a throw size. So pretty!
Thank you so much! I agree that Stylecraft Special DK is a wonderful yarn for blankets! Thank you so much for your kind comment! It really means so much! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for including the Macaroon Blossom Afghan. Warms my heart and me my day! I appreciate it more than you can imagine. All the designers/projects are scrubbing. ❤
Oh my! I have never seen anything more beautiful than these boredom Buster blankets. I pray you can heal fully🙏. I have trouble crocheting due to rotator cuff repair surgery. Pacing our projects is a good idea. Thank you for sharing. Remain happy, joyful and safe …… oh and TEACHABLE.!!!🧶
I'm typing from my mum's phone. I love your videos! I'm a teenager and I love to crochet amigurumi. I think these projects are beautiful. I wait for a new video every week and I watch them with my younger sisters. 🧶❤️ (I even crocheted your bunny pattern!)
They are all GORGEOUS, but the Macaroon Blossom Crochet Afghan was almost enough to convince me to start crocheting again, despite shelves full of fabrics that I love to stitch on...I think that ruffley border is the loveliest thing I have ever seen
This is why I have so many projects going at once. If I get bored with one, I put it aside and work on another one. Wish I had the perserverance to do one of those amazing flower blankets! Thanks for great content!
I'm so glad to know I'm not the only one who gravitates to afghans to combat crochet repetition! Although, I do sometimes make a "boring" 2 or 3 row repeat. I've been looking into many different square variations, just to learn stitches and techniques. I'll also work up shawls & doilies for variety. However, it seems I always go back to an afghan. Can never have too many blankets!
I was 2 minutes in when I decided the 6-Day was the perfect project for me to do while I'm sick. I changed to Betty McKnit's channel, got four rows in, and zipped back here while continuing. I'm now flicking between the two as I work my rows. I wish TH-cam would allow me to post photos.
I made the star blanket this winter as a New Year present for mom as I was really short on money. The design worked fine with a bit of variation of yarn weight so I could use my mixed stash. I also decided to change color each row. It was the most exciting part of the project and the blanket turned out quite psychodelic. 😁 Mom covers her yoga equipment with it now. 😁 Great design and very fun project, no regrets
thank you so much!!! i get bored easily and i cannot stay focus on one project for a long time!!! I like the star blanket because I can around and around :)
Lovely Elise as usual u do not disappoint. I so look forward to your videos.😁 And I really missed u last week, hope all is good.💗🙏 Your enthusiasm and joy for crochet makes me so happy and u constantly inspire me. Love and prayers 💗💗💗🙏🙏🙏🧶🧶🧶
Another great video. Something to try for the inflammation and pain in your hands would be an elimination diet. Yes, I said it and you can get mad at me...but it works! When I go strict carnivore the pain in my hands is gone within 3 days. No sugar, no alchohol, no grains, even no veg. I know it sounds extreme but it's worth being able to crochet pain-free.
I love all of your videos. I’m so glad I stopped to watch this one. I’ve been stalking your TH-cam for I don’t know maybe a year or more. I haven’t gotten started crocheting again but you make me want to. The projects you featured on this video are amazing. I love the one you’ve started, and I would love to do it in a red and green motif for Christmas. And the last one oh my goodness I’d be so proud of myself if I was able to accomplish it. Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful projects.
These blankets are absolutely gorgeous! Thank you once again for bringing your passion, energy, and enthusiasm to the wonderful world of crocheting!!!! You certainly inspire us to want to create these beautiful blankets!!!
Hi Elise. I'm definitely going to check out these ideas. I enjoy when you make these compilations. I've been looking for new ideas and something challenging.
I'm a fan of stitch sample blankets. I've done a few. I not only learn new stitches I can create a blanket with stitches I like. I have to start using some of my stash. I'm making a bucket list of things I'd like to create. I have to include the 5 Star. the Mosaic. and the Mixtape Medley blanket. Thank you so much.
I’m currently making the Painted Anemones by Sandra in Scheepjes yarn nearly up to putting the border on it. ❤️❤️ doing it. Also done her Natures Walk ❤️did while travelling around in our caravan. Like your star one. Margy 🇦🇺👍🏻
Vanilla socks with stripes (from either scraps or minis, etc) can help keep boredom at bay but not make the process too boring. changing for stripes is a good way to make basic socks not too basic haha but making it easy enough to be mindless esp for watching something i'm just finishing up the 2nd sock of this pair for a friend's boyfriend as a gift. i knit a basic vanilla sock except only 2 changes. i knit the cuff & foot in a granite-ish color, while changing to a emerald green/white marled yarn for the heel & toe for color interest. for the cuff, i did a 2 st cable on each end of my 2 needles, then only on the 1 needle for the foot. that way i get a nice little cable on opposite sides on the foot while having a nice heel/toe color!
Beautiful blankets! Appreciate your delving into all these patterns. I am familiar with all but a couple because I study patterns a lot. Just recently discovered Betty McKnit and signed up for her exercise class for crocheters. I would add Rachel of CypressTextiles’ Color Riot blanket. Thank you once again for an inspiring review!
Such beautiful blankets ! I can see why you are in love with them ☺️ . My oldest daughter loves to make one huge granny square blanket, to just relax. I’m working away on the Mr. Monster pattern by aquariwool. I’ve gotten one done but I need two more for my littles ☺️💕. Have a great week and keep cool 😎
Your cotton flower blocks, have you thought about blocking them and putting them in Shadow boxes and hanging them as pictures? I bet that would be beautiful.
So glad I found your channel! I agree with you about Janie Crow. I have made half a dozen with the Persian Tiles maybe my favourite. And Sandra Paul is a legend!
OMG, how gorgeous is the Mixtape Medley blanket?! My Gen X mind has fallen instantly in love with this sassy pattern combinations. It really shows rhyme, rhythm and melody of 80s music! Thank you so much for including this one in your list, at the time it was published I never noticed it. Now I'm plotting out my own color scheme with DROPS Karisma. I've found my fall/winter project!
Awwww! Thanks, Beth!!! I'm having so much fun crocheting my Six Day Star Blanket. I won't get to keep it because one of my daughters has already claimed it! 🩵💙🩷🤍
@@EliseRoseCrochet you’ll have to make another one 😂6DKB is addictive! Thanks so much for featuring the blanket in your video. So happy you’re enjoying it 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
Im in the middle of a six day star blanket (it's taking much longer than 6 days) but I'm loving it! It really is a boredom buster because each row is slightly different
Hello! These are all beautiful blanket patterns. The one you're making is gorgeous. I usually don't push myself, but I might just have to after I finish my WIP's. TFS Happy Crafting and God Bless
you had my adhd brain *hooked* at "boredom busting" i love the barbie inspired checkered crop top im making but it's just dcs and im gettin bored of it. i pretty much only do it when i can zone out like when im calming down for the evening with my household, but it isn't helpful when i wanna do a project that's engaging. thanks so much for reccing things in one place! you haven't steered me wrong once yet
@@EliseRoseCrochet thanks! first time using cotton and my very first actual clothing item. very lucky I found a pattern that was really easy to adjust for my size. gonna start incorporating one of these projects in between working on it for sure!
Hi Elise! I started crocheting at the beginning of this month, and I gotta say, your videos have been SOOOO helpful! I'm actually in the middle of crocheting a blanket at the moment (my second ever, my first c2c!) and I'm freehanding it because I don't exactly know how to read patterns yet--I bought a ton of yarn at a yard sale, found a skein of Red Heart Calliope and wanted to make a blanket out of it only to find out that they discontinued that color OVER A DECADE AGO, so I'm integrating so many other colors and I've worked it so I'm working on the borders first???? The inside is still being workshopped. I'm so excited for this blanket! I also want to learn all the different stitches, so I think I'm going to take inspiration from these.
All very beautiful projects, but that last one you’re correct, takes my breath away too! This is the first I’ve seen your channel. I crochet quite often, especially when giftgiving. I’m working on a beautiful granny square Afghan, that I recently found on Pinterest, made of the circle of friends, granny squares. I have to tell you I was steering away from doing Afghans, but when I saw it, I was so drawn, just as I am to many of these, I couldn’t help myself😀 such a nice channel. I’m gonna check on you again!
Thanks so much again for sharing, and I S❤️ want to crochet that beautiful star blanket that you are making. Just like you, I haven’t dipped my toes into “fresh water” for a while, and I think I need to, after I finish this granny square blanket I’m working on🥴.
Have you tried "The Virus Pattern? I have made triangular shawls oblong & square blankets with this pattern.. It is or was also all over Pinterest. I have been crocheting since the age of 10 & now I am 74. I love retirement, I get to crochet daily...all day if I want! I enjoy your channel. Keep it up!
Hello Elise, in a previous video you mentioned taking a course to become a certified crocheter. I am very interested in learning about the process you took to get this class. I believe in taking courses for things I’m interested in. I just found your video stating the program you took. Thanks for that video; I’m going to sign up this week. You have been an inspiration to me and thank you. I’ve been crocheting since I was 7 and now I’m 77. I believe in taking courses for those subjects I’m interested. Did not know they had one for my first love crochet. Again thank you.❤❤❤❤❤ So happy!!!
Jane Crowe patterns are sooo pretty. I was almost disappointed. But you had her as last... pffew 😂 Working on "the spirit of flora" momentarily. Love that. (In stylecraft btw.)
The 6 day Star blanket looks like something I might actually do! I would normally not have the patience to do a whole blanket, but this one looks varied enough to hold my interest! Also thank you for the intro to Janie Crow - her designs are so beautiful!
Hi Elise thank you for sharing all the beautiful blankets.love them .I am working on an eight point star blanket at the moment with all pretty pom poms around the edges when it's finished.i am working it in all different shades of pinks and white.lovemyour channel so inspiring .stay safe.🌸🌸💝💝💖💖
Dear Elise…I watch your channel regularly. You often mention that you have arthritis. When you crochet you are moving energy from your body through your fingers to your project. I would like to suggest a technique to help you. What you do is to hold your hands up with the fingers spread as wide as you can but not straining or feeling any pain. Then, imagine/visualize energy returning to your body through the tips of your fingers. Work to see this energy moving through the arthritis blockages and soothing them and perhaps making them disappear. This actually doesn’t take very long. Take’s longer to describe than to do actually. I love your channel and have been a fan for quite a while now. Oh, and I’m 76 years young and do the energy technique whenever my hands feel a little stiff when I’m crocheting. I have a touch of arthritis in only one finger and I’m working to clear it. I hope that if you try to this it will help you! Best regards from a fan… Susan
I love this video SO MUCH, it made me really motivated to try out some of these pattern myself! As for the mosaic crochet: it does look intimidating for first and some versions of it (that require you cutting the thread at the end of every row) still aren't my greatest friend, but you don't necessarily have to do that and eventually I found myself completely addicted to it :D It works extra nice for pillow cases!
I have pretty much the same criteria for my projects, be it in very fine thread or yarn. My favourites among the blankets you showed are the Painted Anemones, Mosaic Crochet, Macaroon Blossom and Fruit Garden. So beautiful!
Absolutely love the Macaroon Blossom Afghan and the Fruit Garden Blanket. Bright colors always keep a project interesting. Also, I'm not an expert, but I have heard Sheepjes pronounced Sheep (like the animal) and the "jes" is like the name Jess.
Hi Elise and right now I am working on my cottage core mosaic blanket and granny squares blanket and butterfly mosaic blanket and a baby blanket and I love your channel and your videos and if you keep making videos I will keep watching them and what is your favorite crochet project to work on right now and favorite types of yarn to used when crocheting and keep up the great work on your TH-cam channel and keep up the great work on your crochet projects
Thank you, Samantha! I am enjoying the Six Day Star Blanket! It's sitting on my lap right now! ⭐️ your butterfly mosaic project just sounds beautiful! 🦋
I love making blankets. I make one complicated one every winter, my favorites are any by Helen Shrimpton. I have made three of Mandala Madness (I have two daughters and they always want one).
Thank you for adding on to my long list of projects I already have. The mosaic is something I’ve wanted to learn for a long time. Need beginner friendly for that if possible. Hope you’re summer is going well. ❤

Yes!!!! They really are the palette cleaners of the crochet world! 🧶🧶🧶
And another book for us! ❤❤❤❤ 😊😊😊😊
@@EliseRoseCrochet I like that ☺️!
Heyyy, toni!!!
Sometimes you need those projects that give you a challenge. Granny square blankets fit that for me. Ooh wait, just saw the star and I must
I have gifted numerous "star" blankets and found they were being used as rugs! GASP!!! THEY'RE NOT RUGS!!!
I got this reaction too. Is it just because it's circular?
I'm never bored with mosaic crochet. Once I start one, I have to finish. Great projects, Elise.
I can't wait to start a mosaic crochet project! 🧶🧶🧶
Darn it Elise.....I already have too many projects and here we go again! Thanks for all the research and the skillfully edited videos.
Haha!!! Guilty!! 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you. I love the fact that your videos are not very long. I like to watch different content creators and sometimes I don't have the time for back to back long videos.😊

Even as a knitter, I find this video very inspiring and getting my creative juices flowing. Your videos are always filled with wonderful ideas and your enthusiasm is infectious.

Ok my friend - I have a complaint. Your videos are to short! I look forward to it every week and it goes by to quickly! These are STUNNING projects! Thank you for sharing these great ideas.
Awww! Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️
❤😊
I find this sometimes with other makers and my solution is to make a watch later play list for your chosen channel...so you can watch/save a few videos in a row...❤
I second this!
Yes 😊I agree. Also need variety after all those lovely Ami projects
I can't believe the Fruit Garden blanket is a free pattern. It looks so gorgeous, OMG
It's incredible!!!! 🧶🧶🧶
My eyes popped out of my head basically when she said that was free!!
She has a book about it too - I ended up having to have the book!
It was free only between April and July 2020, according to the Ravelry page. 😢
I love the 4 categories you set up for yourself. My ADHD brain thanks you! These are definitely something that will keep my attention and not bore me out of making a blanket ❤
My responsible side is reminding me I currently have 8 or 9 WIPs...but these all look so beautiful! Maybe I could add just one more...
Lol!!! I totally understand!! 🤣🤣🤣
All of the blankets are beautiful. I make an 8 star baby blanket for everyone at my church who has a baby blanket starting one for little boy. Working on it as we travel next week
Beautiful! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wow those are beautiful. And yes I want to do the 6 day star blanket. Thanks for sharing. I absolutely love your channel. Hugs my dear friend
Thank you so much!! The Six Day Star blanket is so much fun to work on! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Elise, you are hilarious and adorable, and you have spunk! I love your videos, I watch them as a therapeutic fun activity while I am crocheting.

I’m working away on the Mr. Monster pattern by aquariwool. I’ve gotten one done but I need two more for my littles ☺️💕. Have a great week and keep cool 😎
How fun!!!! I love her patterns!! 👹
A coworker of my daughter is just starting Amigurumi, so I directed her to your website. She really loved the Mr. Pencil ❤️
Your cotton flower blocks, have you thought about blocking them and putting them in Shadow boxes and hanging them as pictures? I bet that would be beautiful.
That's such a great idea! Thank you for sharing! 🌸🌺🌼
So glad I found your channel! I agree with you about Janie Crow. I have made half a dozen with the Persian Tiles maybe my favourite. And Sandra Paul is a legend!
OMG, how gorgeous is the Mixtape Medley blanket?! My Gen X mind has fallen instantly in love with this sassy pattern combinations. It really shows rhyme, rhythm and melody of 80s music! Thank you so much for including this one in your list, at the time it was published I never noticed it. Now I'm plotting out my own color scheme with DROPS Karisma. I've found my fall/winter project!
Always enjoy your ideas can't wait to try some thank you
Glad you like them! ❤️
Gotta check out Janey.... and YES to this Star Blanket with "stash"!
Janey Crow is incredible!!! And the Sox Day Star blanket is so much fun! 🧶🧶🧶
Very good crochet ideas!! Thanks for sharing these beautiful patterns!!
You are just the best. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awwww! Thanks, Beth!!! I'm having so much fun crocheting my Six Day Star Blanket. I won't get to keep it because one of my daughters has already claimed it! 🩵💙🩷🤍
@@EliseRoseCrochet you’ll have to make another one 😂6DKB is addictive! Thanks so much for featuring the blanket in your video. So happy you’re enjoying it 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
Im in the middle of a six day star blanket (it's taking much longer than 6 days) but I'm loving it! It really is a boredom buster because each row is slightly different
Yes!! I'm having so much fun with it too! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hello! These are all beautiful blanket patterns. The one you're making is gorgeous. I usually don't push myself, but I might just have to after I finish my WIP's. TFS
Happy Crafting and God Bless
You're so welcome! The Six Day Star Blanket really is so much fun to make!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
you had my adhd brain *hooked* at "boredom busting"
i love the barbie inspired checkered crop top im making but it's just dcs and im gettin bored of it. i pretty much only do it when i can zone out like when im calming down for the evening with my household, but it isn't helpful when i wanna do a project that's engaging.
thanks so much for reccing things in one place! you haven't steered me wrong once yet
Lol!! I'm so glad you enjoyed the projects and your Barbie inspired crop top sounds amazing! 🩷🩷🩷
Thank you soo much for sharing. I love your videos! I am going to attempt making the Mixed Tape Melody Crochet Blanket.
@@EliseRoseCrochet thanks! first time using cotton and my very first actual clothing item. very lucky I found a pattern that was really easy to adjust for my size. gonna start incorporating one of these projects in between working on it for sure!
I needed this video. Ive gotten bored and i have so much yarn left over im looking for something exciting. Thanks for the tip
Just wow! Now which one to choose😊
Exactly!! I love these projects! 🧶🧶🧶
Great selection to choose from, thank you ❣️🥰
Another boredom breaker is making tote bags ❣️
Great idea! Thanks for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
Hi Elise!
I started crocheting at the beginning of this month, and I gotta say, your videos have been SOOOO helpful! I'm actually in the middle of crocheting a blanket at the moment (my second ever, my first c2c!) and I'm freehanding it because I don't exactly know how to read patterns yet--I bought a ton of yarn at a yard sale, found a skein of Red Heart Calliope and wanted to make a blanket out of it only to find out that they discontinued that color OVER A DECADE AGO, so I'm integrating so many other colors and I've worked it so I'm working on the borders first???? The inside is still being workshopped. I'm so excited for this blanket! I also want to learn all the different stitches, so I think I'm going to take inspiration from these.
Wonderful!! You will learn so much by making your blanket and experimenting!! 🧶🧶🧶
All very beautiful projects, but that last one you’re correct, takes my breath away too! This is the first I’ve seen your channel. I crochet quite often, especially when giftgiving. I’m working on a beautiful granny square Afghan, that I recently found on Pinterest, made of the circle of friends, granny squares. I have to tell you I was steering away from doing Afghans, but when I saw it, I was so drawn, just as I am to many of these, I couldn’t help myself😀 such a nice channel. I’m gonna check on you again!
Thank you so much! Janie Crow is an incredible crochet designer and her patterns are works of art! 🖼️🧶❤️🐑
OMG those websites you showed 😧😍🤯 Unbelievable creators out there!!
Yes!! The talent is unbelievable! 🧶🧶🧶
I love mosaic crochet! I have not done the 6 day blanket yet but after seeing that blanket I'm definitely going to have to try it!
I finished the Six Day Star Blanket and it turned out sooooo good! I just am sad that it's over! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks so much again for sharing, and I S❤️ want to crochet that beautiful star blanket that you are making. Just like you, I haven’t dipped my toes into “fresh water” for a while, and I think I need to, after I finish this granny square blanket I’m working on🥴.
It really is nice to work on something totally new and different! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’m just curious, if the blanket is easy to do?
Have you tried "The Virus Pattern? I have made triangular shawls oblong & square blankets with this pattern.. It is or was also all over Pinterest. I have been crocheting since the age of 10 & now I am 74. I love retirement, I get to crochet daily...all day if I want! I enjoy your channel. Keep it up!
I have not tried that one....yet!!! 😅
It is adicting! Easy too with dc & ch & count to 3 or 5 or10.🐱
these blankets are just soo wonderful i cant wait to get my yarn and hook and make it .... thank u soo much for these wonderful videos ........
Ive benn watching you for a locg time and love your channel ❤❤
Thank you so much! ❤️
You are so much fun to watch and so interesting to listen to. Thank you (PS I love your craft room!)
Hello Elise, in a previous video you mentioned taking a course to become a certified crocheter. I am very interested in learning about the process you took to get this class. I believe in taking courses for things I’m interested in. I just found your video stating the program you took. Thanks for that video; I’m going to sign up this week. You have been an inspiration to me and thank you. I’ve been crocheting since I was 7 and now I’m 77. I believe in taking courses for those subjects I’m interested. Did not know they had one for my first love crochet. Again thank you.❤❤❤❤❤ So happy!!!
Jane Crowe patterns are sooo pretty.
I was almost disappointed. But you had her as last... pffew 😂
Working on "the spirit of flora" momentarily.
Love that.
(In stylecraft btw.)
Oooh!!! They are such gorgeous projects! 🧶🧶🧶
Wow! Thank you for this awesome list and video! I'm a fairly new subscriber and just love you and your work! Thanks again!
Awww! Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
The 6 day Star blanket looks like something I might actually do! I would normally not have the patience to do a whole blanket, but this one looks varied enough to hold my interest!
Also thank you for the intro to Janie Crow - her designs are so beautiful!
What a great topic for a video! This was fun to watch and I'm having fun deciding which project to go for! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! ❤️
Hi Elise thank you for sharing all the beautiful blankets.love them .I am working on an eight point star blanket at the moment with all pretty pom poms around the edges when it's finished.i am working it in all different shades of pinks and white.lovemyour channel so inspiring .stay safe.🌸🌸💝💝💖💖
Sounds like a lovely pattern! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I appreciate you, thank you for inspiring me 💟
You are so welcome! 🤗
You chose wonderful patterns and have inspired me to start on my next blanket. Thank you!
Dear Elise…I watch your channel regularly. You often mention that you have arthritis. When you crochet you are moving energy from your body through your fingers to your project. I would like to suggest a technique to help you.
What you do is to hold your hands up with the fingers spread as wide as you can but not straining or feeling any pain. Then, imagine/visualize energy returning to your body through the tips of your fingers. Work to see this energy moving through the arthritis blockages and soothing them and perhaps making them disappear. This actually doesn’t take very long. Take’s longer to describe than to do actually.
I love your channel and have been a fan for quite a while now. Oh, and I’m 76 years young and do the energy technique whenever my hands feel a little stiff when I’m crocheting. I have a touch of arthritis in only one finger and I’m working to clear it. I hope that if you try to this it will help you!
Best regards from a fan…
Susan
I love this video SO MUCH, it made me really motivated to try out some of these pattern myself!
As for the mosaic crochet: it does look intimidating for first and some versions of it (that require you cutting the thread at the end of every row) still aren't my greatest friend, but you don't necessarily have to do that and eventually I found myself completely addicted to it :D It works extra nice for pillow cases!
Thank you for sharing!! I bet those pillows are amazing! 🧶🧶🧶
I have pretty much the same criteria for my projects, be it in very fine thread or yarn. My favourites among the blankets you showed are the Painted Anemones, Mosaic Crochet, Macaroon Blossom and Fruit Garden. So beautiful!
Absolutely love the Macaroon Blossom Afghan and the Fruit Garden Blanket. Bright colors always keep a project interesting. Also, I'm not an expert, but I have heard Sheepjes pronounced Sheep (like the animal) and the "jes" is like the name Jess.
Thanks for sharing!! 🩷🩷🩷
I've added the star blanket to my queue, but when I'll get to it..........These are all stunning and I may add more to my list as time goes on.
It's such a fun project to work on!! 🧶🧶🧶
Hi Elise and right now I am working on my cottage core mosaic blanket and granny squares blanket and butterfly mosaic blanket and a baby blanket and I love your channel and your videos and if you keep making videos I will keep watching them and what is your favorite crochet project to work on right now and favorite types of yarn to used when crocheting and keep up the great work on your TH-cam channel and keep up the great work on your crochet projects
Thank you, Samantha! I am enjoying the Six Day Star Blanket! It's sitting on my lap right now! ⭐️ your butterfly mosaic project just sounds beautiful! 🦋
I love making blankets. I make one complicated one every winter, my favorites are any by Helen Shrimpton. I have made three of Mandala Madness (I have two daughters and they always want one).
Thank you for sharing! I'll have to look those up! 🧶🧶🧶
@@EliseRoseCrochet Her website is Crystals and Crochet. Any that were crochet alongs are free patterns.
Thank you for adding on to my long list of projects I already have. The mosaic is something I’ve wanted to learn for a long time. Need beginner friendly for that if possible. Hope you’re summer is going well. ❤
Mosaic crochet looks like so much fun!! 🧶🧶🧶
