Your mom sweater is marvelous

Love it all. I need to get back into cross stitch.

Oh man that berroco light teal yarn is to die for! I might have to see if I can find some of that for myself. I'm sure it'll make a pretty shirt for you. Thanks for sharing your mom's sweater with us. She did a fantastic job making it. I think we appreciate handmade items more as adults, especially being crafters ourselves. Now we know how much work goes into it. The bags are cute, especially the f bag lol. Oh I'm so glad you like all the things. You look so cute modeling your fox bag. I love seeing the joy on your face even though I had to wait a month to see it 😆. The anticipation was killing me. Thanks for filming the opening. ❤❤

Awesome stuff. I like the jacket you mom made!

Big Hugs cousin 🤗 How wonderful to have such a beautiful sweater made by your mom. I wish I still had some of my mom’s creations. Lovely happy mail. I agree Sarah is a doll and should do more videos. ❤

Beautiful happy mail!

Love the poncho! I live in Ontario.

Loved this! The Happy Mail was...😍❤

I still have a couple of those magazines, love the sweater your Mom made! Such generous and beautiful gifts

Hi Diane. Nice visit tonight. So, the sweater from your mom, yes, I have the pattern in my collection 😂. Love it! I’ve been using a smidge of my classic wool collection (where does this stuff keep coming from?🤣) making the Easy V by Caitlin Hunter. Like you, market makes are ceasing to excite me right now so pulled that and my LePouf Cardigan out and am doing some “me” knitting in between body parts lol. Another market this weekend but stock is solid so coasting right now. Very pretty happy mail tonight, so very beautiful and thoughtful ❤. Loved them all! See you next week, have a good one.

What nice gifts from your friends Diane. And a beautiful sweater from your mother.

I’d never heard of thrummed mittens until this video. But they look interesting and warm. Look forward to seeing yours.

Love the sweater that your Mom made. The yarn and other happy mail gifts are wonderful.

OOO, I love thrum mittens.. they are soo warm, I made a few pairs many years ago. Great gifts❤❤❤. the sweater your mom knit is stunning 😍

Such amazing gifts! And your Mums sweater is great! ❤

Beautiful gifts.😊

Wow all fab crafty gifts !! The Lovenote sweater wool you picked out to use is awesome and will be perfect on you ❤. The perfect wool for that sweater.

Some very nice gifts. I think I might get a floss bitty bag.

The striped yarn is gorgeous!

I cannot remember any of my childhood costumes. No apologies. It was fun seeing the yarn even without the sound. Cannot wait to see the socks made.

Hi Diane! I dressed as a mad scientist one time. Not as a kid, because I grew up in Greece and we didn't celebrate Halloween like we do in Canada.

I don't have a favourite costume from growing up as I was never allowed to participate. In Australia, it is becoming more and more a thing but back 30-40 years, it was considered "American" and many did not participate. I am an introvert and I keep to myself. For Halloween, I dress up as a corpse woman and hide behind that persona while socialising with my neighbours. I stand outside my house and give lollies to the kids. It's fun ! This year I got heaps of photos taken by people with their kids and even with adults.

I was a witch,,,,🎉🎉it was fun,,, Love the yarns, ELAINE 🏠👻🍄🎃

Great yarn there. What fun! I had a Halloween box last year from Lay Family Yarn (UK). I made socks and leftovers went into sleeves on sweater. Great costume story. I don’t recall Halloween being a thing over here when I was younger so no dress up for me! 😘

Pretty mini hanks. Look forward to seeing the socks you make. Fun Kermit costume story.

I love how you used the “lemons” - no sound - to make “lemonade” - a unique yarn unveiling. ♥️ TFS!

You asked about whether people had purchased Halloween advents. Nope, I have not. Seems that the microphone had a few tricks in it today, but when it came to your yarn advent, that was all treats for you. Enjoy!

🐸 🐸 🐸 🎃 🎃 very nice yarn

Your costume sounds fantastic. I agree with you, the colors are more variety than the usual Halloween colors. When I still lived with my mom, we didn't have allot of money. We made a costume using whatever we had and went to the rich neighborhood to trick or treat. By the end of the night I had to take off my "turban" which was a twisted pillow case to carry the rest of my candy. I was a Saudi Arabian zombie and at the time I could barely even say the words. Everyone thought I was super cute. It was a huge success.

I was always a Gypsies, my had made the costume and we had it for years. She even had made braids from her own hair. I don’t know whatever happened to it.❤

Wow those are going to be amazing socks when you get them made. I love your costume story....Kermit for the win! When I was growing up we had a big box that we would take down from the attic every Halloween and make up our own costumes. My Grandmother could sew and we would collect different items throughout the year to put away in the box and come up with costumes on Halloween. My Mom loved dressing up for Halloween with us and we had a lot of fun sometimes deciding what we could be....great memories!

Happy Halloween, Kermit 🎃 ❤

Enjoyed your video

What was your favourite Halloween costume growing up?

Love the wool colours ❤

The colours are so great! Your video editing is spot on! ❤❤

Morning Diane! Fun advent. Cauldron was my fave, of course. Vid was great, lot of work I imagine. Already 18 degrees here, heading for 22 or so, summer again! So it should be a good night for the trick or treaters tomorrow. Have a great afternoon!

What a lot of work to break up your or original video into sections for the final video! You did a great job piecing those all together!

Hello 👋🤗 Yt friends 😊

Fun!

Ooh Diane, those fox coasters are beautiful

Thanks for sharing. Love the band's name. 🎶

Sounds like you had fun. We’ve been listening to Halloween music on a couple of day trips to see some fall colors.

Spooky good time

I'm so happy to hear it was such a success. I never had any doubts that it wouldn't be. Sounds like you had a blast and got some goodies along the way. That was so sweet of the gentleman who gifted you the fox and for him to just create it right then and there.

I'm sorry for the popcorn litter in your car. Lovely greys.

You know i love the piggies!!❤ your pattern featured in a yarn bombing! So cool! Omg, miss mabel is so stinking cute! Congrats on your win.

Looks like a monster blast Diane 👻

Sounds like a great success! Onwards! Xx

I’m so happy for your successful market! That idea to go 100% mittens sounds wise. You’ve got something pretty special there. Other than they’re being adorable I’m trying to put my finger on why I’m so drawn to them. Perhaps it’s the instant puppet/friend on a little one’s hand that speaks to me. I always did love puppets…well…till chucky came along! Anyway, well done. Ps. I had to rewind for a second look at your lighting, 😂.
