Hi Genna, I saw the comment someone left on a past video about how you say literally a lot. And I just want to let you know you shouldn’t have to apologize for being yourself and you shouldn’t have to change yourself to make others more comfortable. I love your videos and every literally you say. If people think you say literally too much then they can find another channel to watch but they would be missing out cause you’re so amazing. So on behalf of every frequent user of literally don’t stop being amazing and being you cause we all love you all 100k+ of us ❤🎉

[@crochetbygenna]

Awwwwwwww thank you sooo much!! Not gonna lie, when editing I was like dangggg I used "literally" so much. You're soo sweet though, thanks so much :') Love you guys!

[@sierras.stitches]

I just got back from class and I RAN HERE to watch your new video!! 💝💞

[@crochetbygenna]

OMG HI :') You are the sweeeetest stoppppp

[@ArinSauls]

I don’t know what it is about you, but you are just the sweetest. You are a brightly shining beacon. You remind me a lot of one of my coworkers Jen. Just a little more caffeinated in personality. Super excited for all you’ve accomplished. You should be proud and I’m sure you are. Keep on rocking the crochet business. You’re doing amazing!!!!

[@ArinSauls]

Watching your videos just makes me smile. I don’t know how to crochet to save my life besides like a big long strand. I think that’s the only thing that my mom had taught us how to do when we were younger (mainly cuz we got bored and didn’t wanna learn more)…And she can do like really cool, intricate coasters and doilies and make blankets and what not… But I just never really got into it… But for some reason, I just really enjoy watching your content and seeing your business grow and thrive and see your excitement. I just wanted to say congratulations on 100,000 subs. That’s amazing. You’re doing a great job. I wish you nothing but absolute infinite success. Keep being a rockstar!!!! This video made my day! 😊

[@franciscab8412]

I will be making that cute turtle next year. It’s just to cute ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Kennedy682]

Omg!! It’s so cool that you have a article on your business! I’m so happy for you Genna! Keep up the great work and thank you for another awesome video! I find your videos so comforting and they always make me smile! (And your intro is so cute your sister did a great job. And congrats on all your follows that’s amazing). Have a great day

[@hii3215]

Love your videos Genna! Your hug checks are adorable! And I love your new intro! Hope you see this comment :)

[@crochetbygenna]

Awwww thank you so much :') I love a good hug check!

[@ArinSauls]

I’m in love with your penguins. My son absolutely loves penguins and I think I’m gonna have to grab one from you here in the next couple months. He’s so adorable.

[@Papasquatch22]

Your plushies are sooo cute!! ❤❤❤ I love your intro too! So awesome! Also, congratulations on 100k on Instagram! And 60k on KZbin! So amazing! Love your videos soo much! The ambition builds up through the week of me waiting on your video release!

[@Normag8]

Hi Genna! I am a big fan of your work! But what yarn do you buy and where is it from? I’m starting a crochet business soon, so I wanted to get the best.

[@ArinSauls]

I absolutely love the birthday cake bunny. I know I mentioned my son loving penguins (as if you’ll ever read any of my comments), but I absolutely love bunnies. And bears…. And I absolutely freaking love this. What a cute design. It kind of makes me wish I knew how to crochet. For real. 🥰🥰

[@CrochetByJ]

Hi Genna! All of your turtles are SO adorable! I've been making them for my grandchildren. Congratulations to you for your first publication in a magazine! You deserve it! 100K on Instagram is so fun for you! Congratulations on that also. All of your plushies are super adorable and I am now hooked on making plushies myself. 🙂

[@conniescrochetedcreations]

The birthday bunny!!!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@jennyb975]

Love the penguins and the birthday rabbit design.

[@ZeshaTheCat]

Love the intro! And the sunflower turtles are so cool, I want one but don't really have room for one. Maybe someday. The Valentine's Day turtles are SO cute! And I really do enjoy watching your content and seeing what you make, it really brightens my day seeing all of your creations!

[@okashiad6930]

I’m new to crochet and got some fluffy yarn from dollar tree to learn without the stress of messing up expensive yarn

[@crochetbygenna]

That's so smart! Dollar tree has some awesome yarn too!!

[@pooksvaj90]

Genna! Please make videos on how to start making your own pattern! You're such an inspiration. ❤

[@maribelfeliciano6155]

Maaaaaan, I've been over here just watching silently from a distance thinking how out of reach the idea of me playing with yarn is, but I think you finally convinced me to give it a try 😅 wish me luck 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 and thank you 😊

[@crochetbygenna]

Omg this makes me so happy, yes!!!

[@SaraHime-lc5tl]

I agree on the cake bunny design number 2. It looks a lot cuter ❤

[@SphynxCrochet]

Using a stitch marker would be super helpful for those super long only sc around rounds! Then you don’t have to worry about keeping track

[@crochetbygenna]

Oooohh great idea, thank you!

[@SphynxCrochet]

@@crochetbygenna there’s no way I’m counting to 70-whatever without a stitch marker even on my best day 🤣🤣

[@Wreinie]

Omgz, I LOVE the hug check!!!

Nessie is so cute I think if you did a heart at the end of the Tello be even cuter for Valentines

[@CesmarieVelez]

Can you make a video about shipping out packages. What is it like at the post office do you just drop it off with them if you've printed out the stuff online?

[@crochetbygenna]

Yes, I can try to film next time I do it! When you already buy the labels online, you can just drop off the boxes at the front desk!

I love your sunflower turtles! And I love the penguins! I couldn’t find a link to the pattern though…I’d love to try my hand at one!

[@crochetbygenna]

Thanks so much! I love bernat pipsqueak (5 skeins) or premier little bunny (5 skeins)

[@mlolvera91]

my mom said my grandmothers both had poor eyesight, and would have to find and count the stitches with their fingers all the time! in addition to the layers, you should also get a face frame! i have long hair like yours where sometimes it just feels like its just sitting there. long layers, a face frame, chin length bangs, and doing some curls helps a lot. the up keep for this mane is exhausting. most days i just put it in a braid. lol!

[@mbfifi]

omg i loveeee your intro🤩

[@ArinSauls]

I love both velvet and the chunky on the penguins… But I do have to agree that the velvet is a little bit more… hmmm…Something. Maybe it’s because he seemed a little shorter and fatter to me that it seems cuter… But they are both absolutely adorable.

[@Horseparadise123]

Hi I have a question btw love ur vid and how do I make my stitches straight when I do half double

[@karenpalmer9988]

Hi Genna...while watching one of your videos you showed a pink tool to squeeze the backs of your safety eyes, but I cannot find the video it was on, and I wanted to know what it was called and where you bought yours? I went to Amazon but they dont have anything that looks like the tool you used...could you please tell me where you got it, and what its called? Thank you!

[@alena_0713]

Genna, I need help! I’m making a penguin with the same pattern I purchased on Etsy through your google doc link. Do you carry the body color when crocheting the white? Or do you change colors and FO each row? I’ve been carrying the body color and you can see it poking through the white 😔. Is there a trick I’m missing?? I’m using bernat velvet yarn with a 5mm size hook. Love all your videos! ❤️ you’ve encouraged me to make plushies!
