Everything I Made This Month ~ February 2023 Yarn Empties

[@SeannePetruzella]

I had a great time watching this. I always love your yarn empties videos! I got lots of inspiration and ideas for yarn that I have in my stash. Thank you!

[@t1naba1ley]

You have created so much and have inspired many including me! Congratulations!

[@megs7019]

Kids love heavy blankets it’s gorgeous ❤❤❤

[@tanyafranchell7124]

Love love love the harlequin ❤🖤 cardigan. Sally cardigan I think small rubbing on the sleeves

[@t1naba1ley]

Ah! I must have that Bernat Forever Fleece. Thank you!

[@AltKnots]

You really must! It's so soft and cozy!

[@KareMax08]

I always enjoy your videos but then I saw your kitty cat 🙀 and fell in love. Hope you show kitty cat 🙀 more, and the crochet is great too 🙂.

[@AmethystCraftworks]

Rainy days are seriously the best days, I'm with you there! Perfect to get cozy and crochet all day. I cannot wait to see your Pooh bear all done, he looks so good!

[@AltKnots]

Coffee, crochet, blankets and rain. Perfect!

[@Lisa_Flowers]

I'm obsessed with that tunisian simple stitch blanket 😍 the colours the yarn the drape??? Need to make one myself. Don't be sleeping on the tunisian simple stitch!

[@AltKnots]

Absolutely! It has to be my top favorite stitch

[@rotay701]

Dang, you should be sponsored by Bernat cause you really sold me on it. I’m a beginner, wasn’t even thinking about ever making a blanket and now I’m SOLD

[@christielamb2894]

Always a good time hangin' in the yarn dungeon with you, Kayla! 💀🖤💀🖤💀

[@someonedifferent198]

I have been binging your content the past few weeks, love it!!! I would love to see you try Ice yarn, I love them personally, would love to see your review!!

[@AltKnots]

I totally would love to test that out as well. There's such a wide variety on their site

[@traciperdue]

Let’s just say I have a lot of forever fleece and forever fleece finer. Absolutely love that yarn. Makes wonderful cardigans and sweaters also. Thanks for sharing, Kayla Great Job! Have a good night!!!🖤

[@christielamb2894]

Kayla, a 4 point poncho using the Bernat Fleece would be so cozy n warm. 🖤

[@AltKnots]

It totally would!

[@candacelyons1048]

I NEED the ghostface merch in the back lol😂

[@erikabarnett9509]

I love your videos! You are so creative. I love how you just incorporate your own style into crochet. Also I just started learning Tunisian crochet. I love it. Well I love crochet in general 😂😂…

[@AltKnots]

Thanks for saying hey! Isn’t Tunisian crochet the best!? When I first found it I immediately feel in love🖤

[@Justthatgirlyouknow]

😊

[@broella6493]

You make the coolest stuff! I love following your channel! 🖤

[@AltKnots]

Thanks for hanging out!🦇☕️🎃

[@kathybarrett2046]

Ohhhh, I want that fleece yarn!!!! Enjoy your chats!

[@angieelliott8741]

My Mimi (grandmother) and I had the same tension. I could pick up her projects and keep going with them. She taught me how to crochet, and the Tunisian blanket stitch was one of her favorites.

[@helofhelheim4840]

In LOVE with that black and red granny square blanket! You've inspired me! :)

[@AltKnots]

Cheers it's so warm and cozy!

[@SparkleLuna77]

You would love the UK! Rain is pretty much our main climate all year round other than the mad spells we have of either snow, heat or wind 😂. Although rain noises are great.

[@AltKnots]

Totally would love to visit!

[@catmumcrafts]

Tags, use them on jumpers and shawls, never even occurred to me to use them on blankets. I may also have to start this. Aaaaaaaand I've been binging some older vids, and have one of your cardigans lined up, and have also tracked down an entire (Not madeline tosh) zodiac set.

[@lizallen9535]

Awwesome! Tunesian simple stitch with alternating one row stripes is cool too....especially if one is varigated and the other is solid. It blends the varigated well and looks like ribbons.

[@1bluechild]

Thanks!

[@Winterseve86]

I'm like that too with rain and rainy days! I rarely like sun and here it's way too hot instead of cold (I know, Florida is terrible for me minus the loads of summer rain).

[@margaretramos1]

Amazing video

[@marugochan131]

That's a lot of work done. I only focused on picking up an old knitted squares blanket project I left aside almost six years ago and making a bunch of squares one by one until I'm putting them together to get a heavy cosy blanket, since the crochet throw I've got on my couch is not enough to keep me warm. That and I made one crocheted sock, I need to make the second one and see if they feel nice to wear. It's my second ever sock attempt after finding another pattern I was ready to tackle on, after having crocheted for a good five to six years now. I'm just looking forward to just the blanket being past me because it's been in my house waiting to be finished forever.

[@yarnyboy]

I just recently used the Big Twist Living (in Trans colors yay!) to make a slouch beanie for myself and I really love it! I will definitely use it again.

[@whirlybird7653]

I got the forever fleece the first time you raved about it, and I made a cardigan with the rumpus red and I love it so much!

[@AltKnots]

Omg so jello you found the red!

[@francesfitzgerald62]

I LOVE Forever Fleece! Right now, I'm making myself a white snood with it. I'm using the herringbone half double crochet stitch. 🖤

[@heatheredwards2982]

Make yourself a chunky cowl with it. Mine is super warm and cozy. I used white FF with a worsted weight mulit colored yarn held together.

[@sarahgoodyear842]

I love your idea for the monthly check in of yarn used, I be been saving my empties and writing on the inside what I made with them 💜💜💜

[@AltKnots]

That's fantastic!

[@Begonia8of9]

I love how you talked yourself into keeping those blankets and making something in another color for the person you are gifting. :-) All the blankets I have gifted to siblings have been claimed by cats. All these cats have similar bakery bents--kneading, biscuit making, etc. Only the one my brother hung up on his wall as fiber art escaped being claimed by felines. LOL

[@Kayla-zg9yw]

3:13 I hope they keep Bernat Forever Fleece in stock FOREVER! I haven't crocheted anything with it yet but I am buying up a stash of the Winter Waves color. I hope to at least make a cozy pullover with it.

[@AltKnots]

Let’s just put it out in the universe that it’ll stay around always🖤🖤🖤

[@lisarose4856]

I have a bunch of the forever fleece finer from the limited edition in Michaels last year. Now i need to put down my cardigan and make a blanket. 😂

[@shannonkelly9587]

I love the pooh bear!!!

[@AltKnots]

He’s so squishy🖤

[@cyndigarcia1431]

Hi Kayla, this was a fun video to watch, love your enthusiasm! Good to know that I'm not the only one that the animals claim all the crochet blankets, both my cat and dogs take over my blankets lol! Gotta check out some of these new yarns! Love all your projects! Thanks 😊💜

[@Begonia8of9]

OK here I am again. I found a bunch of that Jiffy in black--the labels looked vintage---at a St. Vinny's yarn and fiber sale in Dane Co. WI. I made a big skull shawl from a Fiber Spider tutorial. It worked up very well as a shawl even though it felt like I was working with a 5.

[@tsoonklah]

The radioactive bubblegum would go great in a stitch that’s like two color brioche lol i don’t crochet much but i LOVE knitting fluorescent yarns with a very contrasting color like fluorescent neon green and dark plum or fluorescent pink and black or variegated fluorescent violet/purple/blue and variegated gray/black yarn. It’s fun dyeing yarns too lol i have a few packs of various fingering & lace weights yarns, i don’t dye yarns often cause it is very time consuming.

[@tsoonklah]

Oops also meant to say i have fluorescent/neon dyes cause i also want to modernize the traditional designs that i know.

[@dayrue4696]

Gurl! I love that Forever Fleece too! The granny square I made for Christmas with that yarn is such a cozy hug and it’s weight feels like a hug! I bought a ton of it for fear it’ll be discontinued too! I want to try a Tunisian blanket like yours! Just ordered a size 10 mm lantern moon hook ! Thanks for inspiring me!

[@majingothbuuts]

I have major FOMO on the forever fleece yarn… just don’t have the budget to buy enough for a blanket rn which is what I’d wanna make too. 😩 Hopefully they don’t discontinue it!

[@RoamingwithRover]

I love the wander yarn.

[@AltKnots]

The way it shines and how smooth it works up gets me every time!

[@TransPrinceMaxx]

I made 4 coasters 1 ski mask and 1 scrunchie and 10 little flowers

[@egoreknits]

FYI, Amazon has the Forever Fleece yarn for sale in two packs. Some colors are less than $7 a skein. I love the red, black and gray throw blanket!

[@tsoonklah]

Simply Socks Yarn has a colorway exclusive for them by Madelinetosh- Twist Light (sock weight) called HYPERCOLOR SCRUNCHY i LOVE IT! Making socks with it but it’d be cool in a top or accents on a cardigan like the collar & pockets or something like that :)

[@holleysmith1342]

It’s what they did with the Forever Fleece Finer line….tease us with it and then discontinue it (at least that’s what I’ve heard - or maybe it’s just not in Canada anymore). Was so happy that I was able to get enough of it for a blanket, at clearance price, before it disappeared forever.

[@lizallen9535]

Can you turn the black tunesian you want to frog into a shrug?

[@amandaj2267]

Have you heard of the Crochet to the Moon project? If not you should check it out! You just log yardage used and it adds to the total, the goal is to make it to the moon

[@AltKnots]

That's fun!

[@fearlessfawn6804]

I have Vertigo... ringing. Nothing can be done. Walgreens has ear vitamins they help some. Oops raining... In Conway Arkansas sprinkled this morning and rain Friday.

[@t1naba1ley]

Are tags you put on your crochet projects like tags in my clothing? Ah! So cool! Yeah, right or no?

[@AltKnots]

Exactly and you can customize them!

[@t1naba1ley]

@@AltKnots Thank you!

[@jayceemaquack420]

KAYLAAA just go back and rewatch your old video to figure out which size jumbo hook you used!

[@SakiStargazer]

I love that shirt! Is there any possibilty of you making a turtleneck sweater in the future? I was looking for a spooky inspired tutorial, but all I've found was some kind of boring stuff.

[@AardvarkEmpress]

Look at Bernat Blanket in Inkwell.

[@bloomoomin]

Big twist living is one of my favorites! It’s just so nice and squishy :) also has some pride colorways which are pretty fun (they’re named other things but it’s literally a rainbow, trans flag, bi flag, and lesbian flag colors)

[@t1naba1ley]

I thought I would enjoy an anniversary cake; I haven’t found one with the color pattern I like all together. Do I just grab one that’s closest?

[@AltKnots]

That’s what I did and was pleasantly surprised by the outcome. The blanket is going to be a gift so it worked out🦇

[@t1naba1ley]

@@AltKnots the blanket is so beautiful.

[@CaitiB]

I'm new to crochet- is it possible to get the rolled up edging on the sleeves of your Lion shrugs with crochet, or knit only? Thank you✨️

[@EdenYell]

the first quarter of the year I feel like all the yarn is on sale and you are filled with new years intentions so the projects just fly off the hooks for the first few months. then you burn out or calm down a little for the summer when you just don't want to be working with wool anymore

[@AltKnots]

IDK if I slow up in the summer but just switch to cottons, hemp and bamboo

[@tonnasaunders1980]

What if you wrote the pattern info like hook size and stuff on the yarn bands before you put them in the bowl?

[@JackieOfa]

im so sad forever fleece bright green has been discontinued. it is a great texture and amazing color!! im making a hoodie w some i got on clearance but i need a million more things w it

[@GrandmaBooTTV]

FYI - Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey is getting a sequel. So, get your bear ready!

[@heartsunlockedkraftsbykeyk2904]

What is favorite Tunisian crochet hook brand

[@rotay701]

Where can I find the free pattern of that baby blanket? Idk where her blog is

[@weenbaby]

The finer fleece goes through the sentro like butter. Tbh for me it’s TOO soft to crochet with. Perfect for the sentro though.

[@karattop6435]

what hook are you using on your blanket.

[@AltKnots]

For the tunisian crochet blanker, a 10mm hook. The red and black blanket is a 19mm hook

[@karattop6435]

@@AltKnots Thank you I appreciate .

[@tryingmebest4885]

I'm probably late to this but what happened to the fb group 😢

[@Frogginnator]

im on your blog and what is that blanket patterns name. the one that is rows. its at 22:48 on this video

[@AltKnots]

The pattern isn’t out yet for the Tunisian crochet blanket. It’s being released this week🎃

[@sallyannchappell5671]

Your blanket can be for a tiny human or for a good sized dog.

[@heatheredwards2982]

Fold the frog blanket into a blanket shrug

[@janetkincade1735]

I'm new to the machine knitting, so i'm watcing lots of videos from lots of different people, yours the most. The other day I watched a new one. She talks extremely fast, her videos are extremely fast, CC is to fast. The music is so loud, it gives me a headache. Today her videos have popped up in place of what i had playing including two or three of yours. Not fun. Dont know what to do

[@charlesstewart6191]

Girl, I can't stand it anymore ! Pileated refers to a pattern of markings. (ie. a pileated woodpecker) For a sweater, it's simply "pilled" & "pilling". The English language has so many rich and beautiful words, can't we just use them correctly !?
