Crochet After Dark - Crochet Podcast Episode Number 1

[@TraciesDaiseyDezign]

Hi April!! Welcome to our fiber friendly community!! Your projects are just beautiful! Crocheting for 30 years, I’m sure there is much you can teach! I started crocheting with my grandma when I was 11. I kind of stopped after my kids were born and picked it back up 3 yrs ago due to Covid! I remember why I loved it so much, but now there’s just so much more variety of yarn!! Nice to meet you and I look forward to getting to know more about you!!🧶❤️🤗

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Tracie, Kind of the same here. I learned as a kid, stopped for a bit, crocheted some more in my late 20's, stopped for a bit and then picked it back up about 2 years ago. It's just such a nice, relaxing hobby! Thank you for watching!

[@julieagar4483]

Thanks for starting your channel, never enough crochet on KZbin.❤️

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you for watching Julie!

[@vickiellis8080]

Hi from Indiana. I'm up late every night and I love your work! Thank you for your video. 😊

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you Vicki!

[@crochetwithnonnarosanna]

Welcome to this amazing community. Great first video.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Rosanna!

[@nhjaydee]

WELCOME! I have been crocheting for almost 70 years!! and if I was younger, I would start a channel as well! but....dear hubby and I are 'retired' now so I have kept myself busy with the art of crochet (thanks to my grandmother and mother as well) and still selling my goodies on 2 'well known platforms' for 23 years now! I am also going through all of my totes full of crocheted items and donating them to places like Prayer Shawl Ministries, Project Linus, local nursing homes, etc. I also have been going through my stash and trying to bring it down as there is no way I will use it all before the good Lord comes to get me! ha! but....I still LOVE visiting the local yarn shops and splurging here and there as well...GOOD LUCK with your channel. I will be watching you!

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you Jackie, thank you for watching!

[@outdoorgramma6874]

Welcome! And thank you for sharing. Lovely WIPs. I look forward to seeing more🧶💕

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you so much for watching Outdoor Gramma. I just posted a video showcasing 19 of my current WIPs. You can check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKTRZoOJZbaAgc0

[@conniehash4643]

Welcome to the family! I do enjoy seeing wip's and fo's very much. You crochet beautifully. Someday i will be that talented. I also love to watch tutorials. I may not always make the item but i like to see how it is created. I think it is great that you are not ashamed of your yarn stash. People might try to shame you for it. I have seen some tearing down of some beautiful people because of what they have. I look forward to future videos and tutorials.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Connie. Yeah, I'm not ashamed of it. I think people that do that kind of thing have some gap or void in their life and I feel sorry for them. I realize that everyone creates and crafts differently. Some may like a minimal stash or only buy yarn on a per project basis. I like to have lots available to see what is calling to me. The good thing is, I'm pretty sure there are no rules in crochet :D

[@miketa87]

Congratulations on your first video! Looking forward to more. Your pattern is beautiful!

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you!

[@KLine-aka-Kathy]

Great start! Looking forward to following your wip journey. You are so right, you can’t have enough yarn.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you K!

[@CindyHeartsCrochet]

I enjoyed your first video and all of your projects. Welcome to the KZbin podcast world. Definitely subscribed. Looking forward to your upcoming videos.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Cindy!

[@Kdiefenbacher]

Welcome! Great video! Perlite yarns are my favorite , the yarn slides off the hook. Puzzle yarns are my favorite, soft and yummy! Have a great day.

[@craftinginthenight]

Oh I haven't heard of Perlite yarn. The Hobbii Butterfly yarn is fabulous to work with. I've seen the Puzzle yarns on some KZbin yarn reviews I've watched but haven't tried it yet I'll have to get some next time I order. Thanks for the suggestions and the compliment!

[@Kdiefenbacher]

Sorry Permire yarn and your welcome

[@mscscottage1277]

Hello from FL! I am Ms C from Ms C's Cottage, home of the 'Somebunny' I caught your podcast this morning and am looking forward to mor. I have not provided any content on my channel so I applaud your bravery! I can hear you clearly, your voice is welcoming, the podcast it well done and segmented distinctly. I subscribed!

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Ms. C. So happy to have you as a viewer!

[@ColleenPhifer1949]

It's fun to see your site. I definitely identify about the ability of my yarn to sneak continually from the storage bins to surround me as I sit watching TV and working on a specific project. No matter how often I put the skeins of yarn back into their little cubby holes, they continue to escape and find me.😂

[@craftinginthenight]

So true! I just did a yarn organization video and then yesterday found one random cotton cake in my bedroom. I was totally like no way, how did you get here!

[@susanromanelli3789]

I love watching crochet videos they give me inspiration for new projects I've been crocheting for 52 years taught crochet for 23 years at our local craft shop and been knitting for 55 years enjoyed your video

[@craftinginthenight]

Oh how fun Susan. I've only taught a few people but I do enjoy it. I have thought about trying knitting, mostly just to learn how to make knitted socks, but I'll have to save that adventure for when I have more time!

[@trenarash9057]

Loved everything! And i totally agree, you can never have too much yarn! Hey, from Hiddenite North Carolina!!💜💚🌻🌻

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Trena! If I had more storage I would definitely have more yarn but for now, the goal is to just get my stash to where it fits in my existing storage. Thankfully I just went through and totally reorganized everything. I have a video on that releasing later today!

[@karieus]

I enjoyed your first episode..its refreshing to find a crochet channel that actually has crochet to show..Love all your afghans they were very pretty. so glad i found you,,i'll be back

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you so much Kathy! I crochet at least 2 hours a day so I always have something to work on. I'm so happy to be able to share it with you guys here. Thank you for watching!

[@daisy145]

Congratulations for your first video pod cast. All your projects are beautiful .c2c blanket is very beautiful . I am sure I will visit your site often.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you for watching Daisy!

[@Magnolia34]

Hi, April, Wow! Loved your First time video, i subscribed & will be watching.Thanks for sharing your crochet. Mary in FL💜

[@craftinginthenight]

Hey Mary, Thanks for watching!!

[@dianapulido1807]

Hi from Miami Florida! Love your blanket it just got on my to make list. I totally agree with you that weaving in ends are the bane of my existence and that there is no such thing as too much yarn. Wow 25 WIP's that is impressive. Off the top of my head, I have about 10 WIP's and a zillion things in my to make list. I keep saying I'm not starting a new project till I finish a WIP. That does not work too well. Looking forward to your next videos.

[@craftinginthenight]

That's my problem too. I get so many great ideas and I want to at least "start" them to see if they are going to come out the way I think they are. I just know if I set a goal to tame down my WIP pile I'll be able to actually get more projects completed. Just working on it this week I've got 4 Finished Objects to show you guys in the next podcast, and I might even get to five before I film. So that's fun too!

[@janienichols6666]

Thanks for an upbeat podcast. Loved it and all the links. Rita from Idaho.

[@craftinginthenight]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Suzanne_Fenton]

Very nice podcast! I’m enjoying every part of it. You have a beautiful voice and presentation.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you so much!

[@angierobinson64]

Enjoyed your podcast. I also live in a townhome and have limited storage space. I’m continually reorganizing and trying to find a place for my WIPS and FO’s. One of our grown kids just moved out recently and I’m hoping to take that room for my craft room. Your experience shows in your beautiful work. I enjoy making baby blankets. Thank you for your Channel.

[@craftinginthenight]

Oh man a yarn room would be awesome. My little yarn area is nice but I'd love somewhere dedicated in the future for sure!

[@slowcrochet]

I like you! It seems we are on opposite sides of the WIP spectrum. Your projects are beautiful!

[@craftinginthenight]

Ha yeah I do love my WIP's. At some point I hope to pare down the list to just what fits beside my couch but that may take a while :D Thank you for watching!

[@rennamiller5347]

Your blanket reminds me of the beach and waves hitting the beach..so beautiful!! The corner to corner blanket is also beautiful!!

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Renna!

[@bhallmark3390]

Hi April…😊. KZbin brought up your video for me and I’m so glad to discover your channel! It was fun seeing your WIPs and hearing you talk about your crochet journey. I especially love the Double Triple Ripple blanket, so will definitely be going to your website for your generous free pattern!🥰 I hope you will have much success with your channel. I have happily subscribed!😸😉❤️

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you so much!

[@judyclem65]

Hi April from Canada!! I'm subscriber #358 and very happy to have found you. Your blankets are very pretty and look forward to seeing your new creations. I make sweaters and tees more than blankets but once in a while I do make them as gifts. Welcome and wish you great success in our yarny world!

[@craftinginthenight]

Awesome Judy! I can't believe how fast the subscriber count went up. I'm so happy there are so many awesome crocheters. The hexgon cardigan is my first wearable that I've made (other than hats) but I've been thinking about making a tank top for myself for summer. I have a great pattern idea for it but I know it will be a bit of a longer process because I have to figure out sizing :D Thanks for the warm welcome!

[@denisediauto9618]

Your channel popped up on my feed this morning. I love your blankets, they are beautiful! Thank you for sharing where to find the patterns. I also like to crochet blankets, they are my "go to" projects. I enjoyed your podcast, looking forward to seeing you soon.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you Denise!

[@katherinesgrannysquares]

Hello from England UK I think your work is beautiful and really enjoyed seeing all the blankets. It's good to know others have many projects on the go

[@katherinesgrannysquares]

Can I ask listening to you and seeing the links do you do your own designing? I am a small ( very small ) channel I love it every time I know someone is interested in my channel so understand what you mean but I dont think you have to worry on that front Count me as another subscriber and I look forward to watching all your videos now I have found you

[@craftinginthenight]

Some patterns are my own designs, some are works I created from patterns available online. Whenever a pattern is not mine I always try to link to where you can get the tutorial. Thank you for subscribing!

[@pattybarker8245]

Hello fro Pennsylvania! Your feed popped up and i am so glad it did! Congratulations on your first video. You did a great job, easy to listen to and understand. Blankets are beautiful. I rang the bell. Have a wonderful day😊

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you Patty!

[@kellyscurlock6527]

Welcome. Looking forward to getting to know you. You have a nice eye for color combinations. Will be watching from Michigan.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Kelly! One of the things I use to help me with color palettes is this site: coolors.co/ because it has both just pre-created palettes and also a tool where you can make a color scheme from a photo. Thanks for watching!

[@shirleyknits123-7]

Hello from Texas. Looking forward to being a part of your podcast journey.

[@craftinginthenight]

Thanks Shirley! Thank you for watching!

[@roseydiva1183]

Hello from Texas! I live in a small place that tends to get rather dusty at times. So I've purchased 18"L x 15"W x 9"H clear storage bags for clothes or larger blanket items from Amazon. I've got 90% of my yarn there. The other is in one for those plastic drawer bureaus, mostly yarn I just wanted to get and see what it was like (Malabrigo, Rowan, etc) and planned projects. For my WIPs, I have purse storage bags. They're clear on one side and canvas on the other. These all stack up nicely and with the zippers at the top, the items are easy to get to. All your items are very pretty! I am looking forward to the C2C pattern! I love working it and since I do scarves for a local charity, I always need new patterns so the kids get something that doesn't look like anyone else's. Looking forward to more podcasts!

[@craftinginthenight]

Oh nice! I'll have that c2c shell pattern coming out next week I hope and I'm also filming a neat textured shell pattern that would be great for shawls / scarfs. It's on my "to do" list for one of my next WIP's and I'll decide if it will be a scarf or a shawl depending which yarn I pick and how much of it I have so keep an eye out for that as well!

[@vernawhitehouse6784]

Hi April! I just found your channel and I must say I absolutely love the ripple blanket! It's beautiful and I love the colors! I am always looking for new blanket ideas. I look forward to your next videos!

[@sarap6862]

Love your work!! I know what you mean about weaving in ends. The only time I weaved them end as I went, I ended up having to frog it.

[@craftinginthenight]

Oh man that happened to me once and I wound up having to cut the yarn so I could frog. I do try to keep up with the ends on newer projects I start but sometimes I don't and that's OK too :D Thanks so much for the compliment.

[@itzims5248]

Nice podcast! Best wishes for success. Re: Bernat Velvet yarn. I used it to make a small filet crochet blanket and as usual I washed the blanket before giving to the intended recipient. Good thing I did. The yarn wormed horribly. I ended up giving it to my sister for a dog blanket. I’ve used chenille type yarn in the past and experienced worming. I’m only sorry that I didn’t trust my gut and go with a different yarn.

[@craftinginthenight]

Good to know. Did you use the washing machine or hand wash it? I've always hand washed the projects with velvet in it so I'm wondering if this is something that happens in the machine?

[@itzims5248]

@@craftinginthenight I machine washed it, but worming isn't caused by machine washing. It's the nature of many chenille yarns and it's caused by the way the yarn is constructed. Supposedly, it's better behaved with crochet vs knitting, but I've done both and they were equally bad. The yarn swatch in Michael's was actually woven on a loom - that was my first indication there would be trouble in paradise. 😂

Love the wips! Hello from NJ. I'll be interested to see the suggestions for Butterfly yarn in Monarch as I have 2 skeins myself. Nice job!

[@craftinginthenight]

Oh awesome, yeah I'm keeping an eye out to see if any viewers have suggestions. It's such a lovely yarn to work with. If I knew of a solid that was the same size and texture I could "stretch" the two skeins and make a larger project but I haven't found anything similar yet.

[@jodiebelton625]

[@craftinginthenight]

Thank you Jodie!

[@sgstuff-q8e]

What a lovely video, thank you April. As a relatively new maker, I also like making blankets. Would love to know what you have done with the blankets you have made over the years. Surely there are only many you can keep or give to family!

[@craftinginthenight]

I only started crocheting again about 2 years ago after a long break. Right now I think I have 6 WIP blankets for other people so still definitely working on gift giving. If I ever feel like I have too many at home I'd find a local charity to donate to. Thank you for watching!

Oh man I wouldn't be able to pass those up either!

[@margaretrose3871]

So glad I found your channel. Love the name. Your projects are lovely and I look forward to following you. I no longer feel guilty about having 8 wips! I have trouble with corner to corner -they go wonky on me and are hard to square up. Maybe you know what the problem is. Thank you for sharing. All the best.

[@craftinginthenight]

I haven't had that issue yet with my corner to corners but the shell pattern I show in this video is a little bit different, it works up in a rectangle, so it might be a good one for you to try out once the pattern is done.

Thanks Stephanie! So happy to have you as a subscriber.

[@jenreeves7684]

Hi April.way to go on your first vlog! Nice to meet you. You picked beautiful colorways for all your makes and wips. Do you have a solid color to add to those 2 Hobbii cakes? That will make it go further.

[@craftinginthenight]

Hey Jen thanks. I haven't been able to find a solid color the same weight and texture that would go with that yarn but now that you mention it, maybe I could use the butterfly yarn to make some beautiful flower motifs and then something like Bernat Bundle Up to turn those motifs into squares or hexagons. That's something I'll have to consider!

[@jenreeves7684]

@@craftinginthenight great job figuring it out!

[@cynthiaosgood3804]

Glad to have found you. You have lovely WIPS. I watched your second video first, and loved it! Do you crochet at night only? Work all day? when do you sleep? I'm a nurse, trying to find a way to do it all when working 12 HR shifts. I'd really just rather stay home and crochet.

[@craftinginthenight]

Mostly at night. I work during the day and then I make dinner and hang out with my daughter. I typically crochet (and film videos like this) between 8pm and Midnight :D

[@gertkirkland1381]

Just found your channel. Love your blankets. Question, is that a dog or car behind you? I’m sure you will show it to us before you are done. Good podcast.

[@craftinginthenight]

Yeah that's my dog Hurley, he was hanging out with me. You can see a little more of him in the a video coming out later today about my yarn organization project but he'll probably also be in a lot of videos going forward because he loves to hang out with me when I'm on the couch. Thank you for watching!

[@susaniacuone5758]

Hello from Australia I'll be looking out for the tutorial on the small baby quilt. The blanket in the hobbit rainbow yarn is very pretty ( but you held it up backwards )

[@susaniacuone5758]

Dang that predictive text. Hobi yarn

[@craftinginthenight]

I thought I might have. It is so beautiful on both sides. I do love that yarn. If I ever get it again I think I would buy 4 or 5 skeins of each color. I'm working on the pattern and tutorial for the baby blanket this weekend so I'll try to have it up in the next week or so. Thanks for watching!

[@judithmoore1176]

I enjoyed your video. I really like your color choices in all the blankets. What on earth are wips? I've been crocheting for only a few years and never heard of that.

[@nancyadams2298]

WIP stands for Work In Progress. Gotta love acronyms!

[@craftinginthenight]

I forget sometimes that not everyone uses the same terminology. I'm still learning as I go too. Here are my most commonly used acronymns: WIP - Work in Progress FO - Finished Object UFO - Un Finished Object (I use this to describe projects I have started but am not actively working on) FROG - When you undo the work you've crocheted. Usually because you see you made an error several stitches or even rows back in a project but on occasion I have frogged entire WIP's that I decided I didn't want to work on any more so I wanted to be able to use the yarn for something else. Thank you so much for watching Judith!

Hello. I am new to your page. I REALLY WANT to do the Shells blanket. Is that color one ball? Like a variegated yarn? I am having NO luck finding that beautiful color. Of course with my short memory, moving back and forth from your vlog to trying to find that beautiful color, sure isn't working for me. That blanket is simply stunning. I am not sure if your saying that you can't get that color or what. Could you please give me a hand in finding that color. I imagine I will be your biggest pain because i simply can't remember back & forth. It's like i drop a stitch and can't find it. Grrrrrrrr. Please help. Thank you in advance.

Hi Sherrie, that is Lion Brand Ice Cream Yarn in the colorway "Bunny Tracks". You can see it on their website here: bit.ly/42UfYzL The color is readily available I only had two skeins of it though so the blanket came out small. Since I'm trying to use up the yarn I have I just didn't want to buy more to make it bigger! Hope that helps! Thank you for watching!
