Never had to hide my yarn purchases. Quite the opposite. If I am out with hubby doing errands, he will ask if we need to stop at the craft store. Always, yes. Then I will find HIM in the yarn section before I even get there, and he is picking out yarn! "Feel how soft this one is," "Do you have this shade?" "Do you need to replenish any colors?" "You should just get all three, why pick?" I love my hubby.

My last purchase of yarn, when it was delivered, my husband said "please tell me that's not yarn". But he apologized. I really needed it, I had to throw away a huge amount of yarn as it got damaged.

I can add one I bet we’ve all done, and that’s “crochet until it hurts.” And the “it” can be so many things or combination thereof. Eyes, back, wrists, hands, where you stab your fingertip with the hook, elbows… I REALLY try not to, and remind myself it’s supposed to be fun… but in a combination with the “just one more row/round” mentality, I can really make myself sore.

I spent three weeks knitting a very fine gauge sweater with an intricate stitch pattern a couple of years ago and after I completed it I had full on trigger thumb. If you don't what that is, just let me tell you it is almost incapacitating (it is related to carpal tunnel syndrome, I think.) It took two months to recover, and I thought I'd never pick up a crochet hook or knitting needle again. Yes, we need to remember to pace ourselves!

For some reason, I'm not a movie person, so when I started crocheting and then knitting I was relieved, because I'd have something to do to keep me from getting restless during the movie. So, the test you have to pass, as the filmmaker, is did you make a movie that's so good it makes me set down my project just to watch? That's a good show! 🤩

I am so guilty of taking projects in the car and on vacation and not working on them. I have done this so many times now and I have come to the conclusion that bringing a crochet project with me is like having a security blanket. I feel better just knowing it is there, even if I never work on it. I have some crochet hooks with handmade wooden handles and I just love how they feel in my hand and for some odd reason, I hate to be parted from them. I know this is weird, but it's how I roll.

We drive from So Cal to AZ a lot to visit our daughters that live there and I will read, sleep, listen to the radio, watch a DVD, all with my project bag either on my lap or tucked in between my feet on the floor. If I do pull my crocheting out, I only work on it for a few minutes then back in the bag it goes. Very strange. Maybe I should take less fiddely projects with me as I do hate getting out scissors and needles and so forth in the car. Will have to think on that before our next vacation.

I can't help but ask the recipient of my crocheted gift: How's that blanket doing? Are you wearing that poncho I made for you? I don't mind if people register my work, but I have to know to whom and if they appreciate the value of it. I also put on the TV to something that just becomes background noise. If I pay attention, I inevitably have to frog a row or two, or "fudge it". And then there's thrift store yarn which is often vintage and not so soft. So I grudgingly make bags to give away. Quality doesn't come cheap! Loved this episode, Elise Rose! ❤

Lately, I've decided to stop fighting myself and just enjoy the ride. I'm glad to see I'm not alone and that I'm genuinely human! As for your retreat, I had a friend who belonged to a knitters group. They went to Ireland and did exactly as you describe. I do polymer clay sculpture and she commissioned a lamb from me and gave me free rein on it. Her favorite color was lavender. So I made her a little lamb walking jauntily on a winter's day wearing her newly knitted tweed jacket and carrying a basket of yarns and needles on her way home from the yarn shop. I named it "Happy Day!"

One you kind of mentioned I have a fear of running out of yarn and always buy to much for a project and end up with lots of single skeins. The second one is I like to show off my crochet skills and when I go out I purposely choose a WIP that will impress others or be noticed (e.g. a particular difficult stitch pattern, Lost in Time shawl).

I"m guilty of almost all of these (especially 'one more row syndrome), but I don't think crochet is superior, but part of the reasons I crochet and not knit is because of the knitting snobs (I'm looking at you LYS) who think they're better. Also, I was recently traveling and in 4 airports, and let me tell you, if you're fishing for crochet compliments/conversations, the Atlanta airport wins by a country mile. So many fun conversations in that airport. Also, I just shared your 'stop scrolling and crochet' video with my students at a major CA university. So I'm not only a Crochet Evangelist, but Elise is enabling me.

"In the zone!" this is the whole reason I crochet now in my later years, to be distracted from some very real, painful physical restrictions. To help make pain meds work better/longer, I took up knitting/crochet to give my hands something to to while my mind was absorbed in the intricacy of working out a pattern. So, yes I did forget to eat too! But I found hours would have gone by, and still I hadn't reach for the pain relievers! Paired up with binge watching an exciting series - wow!

I give away most my projects, I work with kids, even donating 2 to 4 hours a month, to teach the kids how to crochet and knit, those who cannot afford after school activities, 19 years so far, and I sell some pieces online, with 100% of the money donated to cat rescue or families with pets who can't afford buying food or vet bills. I got 4 other fribds to join. It's a win-win, enjoy my kitting/ crocheting projects, and see the end to ensure that others who don't crochet, can enjoy it too. I used to crocheting rag rugs, an absolutely incredible hobby, I sold every single rug and puff seats, with money donated to kids in need. It's beyond joyful the pleasure you receive when others enjoy the hobby you enjoy, too.

I only got three? What I noticed was that I actually did the exact opposite of a lot of the list. I do: - Crochet past bedtime - Crochet in weird places - Underestimate yarn I don't: - Hord hooks (I started knitting before I started Crocheting, and one of the things I love about Crochet is that you don't need to worry about having a million different hooks like you do with needles (circular, straight, double pointed, different lengths...). I bought myself a set of clover amour hooks and that's it) - keep my projects (I almost never keep my projects, I love giving things away. In fact, the few WIPs I have abandoned are things I was making for myself.) - too many wips (I usually have a couple projects going at once, one smaller one for travel and a larger one for home. I almost always finish what I started.) - buy random yarn (pretty much all yarn I buy is for a specific project. I don't really have a stash) - get distracted from movies (I almost always have a movie or audiobook or something going when I craft) - buying too many patterns/not following patterns i buy (I rarely buy patterns. I know I will just use them as a guideline, so I usually just find something basic and free and use that as inspiration. The only times I follow patterns are for amigarumi, which I rarely make) There were actually way more things I don't do, those were just what I could remember off the top of my head.

I am guilty of quite a few of these! One of my quirky habits is to keep an inventory of my favourite yarn in each colour, I make up a spreadsheet, laminate it, then use a dry erase market to keep track of my quantity of each colour. Then when I want to buy more I go to my inventory to see what I need! It’s ridiculous 😅

Turkey is the yarn capital of the world and very touristy. I would love a yarn vaca there and I would wear the same clothes every single day so that my suitcases would fit all the cool yarn I would bring home. I’m guilty of complaining to my husband that his television shows aren’t crochet friendly because they don’t have enough dialogue to keep me involved while I’m crocheting. 😂 I’m a crochet promoter and have taught a dozen or more people how. ❤️‍🔥

We have a series of prayers that we do together and while my husband holds the rosary beads, I crochet. Love it! I've made afghans, scarves, flower bookmarks, handbags, doll shoes, baby blankets, ponchos, and I don't remember what else for family members and those at our church. My ongoing project has been making little squares, using the Walmart cotton yarn. They are for our newly baptized members, to dry their head/hair for when the water is poured on their head.

I love both crocheting and knitting, too. No contest between the two. And while I'm not a "serial starter" with crochet projects, what I do is have maybe a crochet project and a knitting project going on at the same time. This benefits my hands to some degree because I'm switching up what I'm doing. Also keeps me more engaged because they are both fun in different ways. And I do buy yarn without a project in mind, and often don't know if I'll knit it or crochet it, sometimes I just wait and let the yarn tell me what it wants to be.

My number was 15. I’ve been crocheting amigurumi almost 3 yrs. I admit, I found after doing so many amigurumi projects that I was taking a pattern and another pattern then putting them together. I’ve been trying to do patterns completely from pattern but I’ve noticed that truly there’s a mistake or I just don’t like their technique. I still end up pretty close to pattern. I have decided next year and try my first pattern design. I’m finding I can’t find the pattern to do what I want so. It should be fun. I first need finish deadline projects. One other thing I need to crochet constantly so I always have a project with me. What’s fun I find it’s a conversation starter. Thanks for your videos. Sending prayers love and hugs.

I love giving my work away. And sometimes, I get something wonderful in return. I chronically have more time than money, so I love making gifts, especially at Christmas. So I made lots of hats, mitts and scaves when my nieces and nephews were young. One Christmas I made a scarf, hat and mitts fir my then four year old niece Sara. When she saw what I'd given her, she had a smile that could light up a concert hall. "Thanks," she said. "It's exactly what I wanted!" That was the best Christmas present I got that year. I have squirrel brain, too, usually otherwise termed ADHD. I find that doing something with my hands actually quiets the squirrel as it has something to occupy it. Whole days can then disappear while my hands are engaged with hook and yarn. I also crochet on the bus. I get queries from young men - "Is that hard? It looks hard." My weirdest spot for crocheting? A cemetery. I was having trouble with my blood pressure dropping too low, so I ducked in to a cemetery I was passing by. Of course I had a project with me, so I sat on a bench in the shade for a couple of rounds till I was able to get up and walk again.

In regards to tv/movies, I don't have a problem watching a movie for the first time without crocheting/knitting, but if I want to crochet or knit I'll put on a movie I've seen many times and more listen to it than watch it. It satisfies the need for my hands to do something whilst my mind is occupied.

I had new money on my account today 😊 So when I went grocery shopping, I again bought yarn even though my stash is already exploding. It's merino with a little cotton and the colors sooo beautiful. 😍 I also stay awake at night and only end my knitting or crocheting when falling asleep while handicrafting. My male Rottweiler usually leaves me and goes in his crate in the kitchen to sleep at about 10 at night, and only returns to my bedroom when I shut off the light and go to sleep. I also have about 20 slightly unfinished projects waiting. It's just the yarn ends that need to be sown in or washing and blocking that needs to be done... mostly. I always change patterns I buy. I just can't follow a single pattern from A to Z. I have problems giving away the projects I made for myself. And I have problems detaching from my projects I hang up in the public. I actually started yarn bombing to spread the fun and joy of yarn art. But I really dislike drunk people talking the objects down and at some point throw them away. I start talking to people if they have some bonnie fiber art on them. I got to talk to nice and interesting strangers this way. 😊 I buy too much yarn all the time. Even if I run out of money, I just can't pass by a beautiful yarn. Same with pattern magazines. 😮 I'm working on a self designed poncho right now and I'm crocheting it for the third time, because I had to rip it up as soon as I had finished it. This is exhausting. But I couldn't stand a piece that is not perfect. I always take a crochet project along, even if it seems I won't have the time to crochet at all. When visiting one of my sons, I used to take along several projects. Meanwhile I only take one along. As I have several health issues including cancer, I spend lots of time in waiting areas. I usually am the only one handicrafting there, but many people respond by telling me that they will start crocheting or knitting again to not just sit around waiting. I guess that's about all.
