I'm so happy I found your channel! I have been crocheting and knitting for years and I always love putting videos like this on while I work on my projects! A couple notes: the truboo bamboo yarn wouldn't make the best scarf in my opinion. It is a very cooling yarn so i have used it for summer pieces like t shirts and tank tops. It does tend to spilt and be very slippery so I would recommend not sharp or metal needles, I personally am a fan of wooden needles. Also it would be nice if you mentioned the amount of yarn you get when you show each skein. The grams, yardage, or meters are all good options. It just helps when recommending project types! Anyways, great video! I look forward to more! 💜

I watched this clear to the end and didn't see a single idea that represented the true meaning of Christmas.
@melslife222Ай бұрын
If you’re referring to the meaning of Christmas coming from a biblical perspective then absolutely not. Crochet is a form of art and Christmas represents so much more than a religious meaning. Christmas (to me) represents a form of connection and celebration with the people I love. To many others it is a biblical holiday; both of which are worthy of celebration ❤️

The cultural significance of Christmas goes far beyond your narrow, Christian world-view.
