Outdoor wind spinners would be interesting for people’s campsites or covered porches. The reflective threads may be great for adding a cool spinning pop to the outdoor space.

All I could think of when you mentioned not always getting what you want in a mystery box is that so many of us got 9 balls of scrubby with that Joann Red Heart mystery box. 🤣 I would gladly work with velvet/polyester yarn any day over the scrubby!

I used the starlight to make a hat for an elderly neighbor that walks really early in the mornings. I ended up lining the inside of it so it wouldn't be scratchy for her. Our neighborhood can be kind of dangerous at times so it is good for her to be seen. Other than that, I like your bag idea! I love Shiney and glow in the dark products. Thanks for your reviews! I didn't see those bags Monday but I did see a Lucky Christmas one, but I decided to pay my cc first before adding more to it. 😆 lol

I bought the Starlight yarn at full price last year for Christmas gifts. I made bandanas for all the dogs in my life since they have to be walked on leashes at night due to living in suburban areas. I made hats or scarves for their humans. They were a big hit as the yarn is super reflective. I had no idea Red Heart made a similar product.
@janenielsen8092 жыл бұрын
The starlight soft is cheaper because it’s an acrylic yarn with no wool in it. I’m from Denmark and I have to pay those prices when I buy yarn, so I almost always have to wait until it goes on sale, I’m on a fixed income, so pretty much don’t have a crafting budget. I love watching your unboxing videos, I get to see so much pretty yarn and I’m always so excited when you get a good deal. I think it’s amazing what you do with donating the yarn you don’t use or gift it to your neighbors to help them out. Your giveaways are so generous, but unfortunately I can’t participate for that same reason, it would be way to expensive for me if I won, with the fees and taxes I have to pay. I want to wish you a your family a happy new year, and will be looking forward to seeing more wonderful videos from you. I always mention you when people around me are talking about using KZbin tutorials for crochet. Big hugs Jane

Hi Crystal, I've never brought any scratchy yarns, cause by the time I go to Walmart alot of the yarn is gone. I can't order any mystery bags or boxes, you see I'm a senior citizen and I can only go to the stores here, but what can you make with a scratchy yarn would probably be a rug. I don't know much about the scratchy yarns, but it's nice to learn about all the yarns you talk about which helps me learn more. I thank you for talking about all the different kinds of yarn, teaching all of us how to crochet and the prices of the yarn, plus letting us know if the yarn is soft or scratchy and I thank you for sharing all this information. I like watching your tutorials cause I'm not just learning how to crochet I'm also learning the different kinds of yarns, what the price should be of the yarns. I feeling I'm in a class room learning a new subject every time you share the mystery bags or 📦. Thank you for sharing this tutorial take care of yourself and your family bye til next mystery boxes or bags.

Hello Crystal, I think that Beautiful Blue that sparkling yarn could make a great Beret if you ĺiñe thè inside of the hat around the brim. You çoulđ also make a beautiful Jumper. It would be necessary to wear a slip or tights underneath to avoid the itchiness. The Gray yarn would be good for a inside the car blanket. I grew up wearing wool skirts to school with slips or thick tights. It might also make a beautiful dog sweater. Just a thought. Hugs, Renae

I knitted a hat for my daughter from one of the Hobbii patterns which used one ball of Super Kid Silk, one ball of BabyWool and one ball of Diabalo Glitter. They were all used together and made such a soft, pretty fabric. I’ve used Starlight before and it doesn’t have much stretch to it. Some of their acrylic yarns aren’t brilliant to be honest. I really wish they had sample card or mini balls so that you could get a feel of the yarn before you buy.
