[@CrochetandTea]

Hey Happy Hookers, Sooooooo I've braved version two of the Christmas Bobble Wall Hanging and it turned out great! Yay success. I just need to fringe and add the dowel and then I'll be ready to film and share with you :-)

[@diklee3165]

love the baby blanket. what a beautiful gift!

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you, it was certainly a labour of love, so soft, I think I need a huge one just for me :-)

[@taylabria]

I love both the half double crochet and the double crochet.

[@CrochetandTea]

Yay 😀

[@6473653]

Hia, loving the cushion. It was such a lovely podcast, thank you.

[@CrochetandTea]

Thanks 🙏

[@janiceprodor3456]

I really enjoyed your crochet podcast! More please! I have a rag doll cat too. His name is Remy and he was a rescue - lucky us! The only criticism of your podcast area the LOUD ads that pop up. Other than that, I look forward to listening/watching again soon.

[@CrochetandTea]

Hey to you and your fluff ball Remy! I’m so excited to do another Podacast shortly. Thanks 🙏

[@solstitches]

Well I absolutely loved that and yes, of course I made it to the end. Now I’m looking forward to catching up on your other videos and tutorials. I think you have it just right with the popular format of finished objects, works in progress, maybe yarn/accessories recommendations etc. I love a book or Netflix recommendation too and will check out Readly. Also if you can recommend any other good crochet channels that you enjoy. Happy crafting, Margaret

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you for such lovely feedback. I shall be sure to include more recommendations in my next podcast :)

[@OliveCityOasis]

I made it to the end! Had to pause for a bit though when you mentioned the Readly App because it sounded so good! I had to immediately get my own, of course. (That was a fun 30 minutes picking out all the gardening, baking, and crafting magazines!) So thank you for that aside! 😊 Love your sense of humor, and your projects are so beautiful and/or useful. I'm a "returning" crocheter, so I'm looking forward to following along with some of your tutorials.

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you for your wonderful comment. These are the responses which inspire me to create these videos. I'm so glad you like Readily, I've been enjoying browsing the Christmas cooking ones along with wildlife mags at the minute.

[@OliveCityOasis]

@@CrochetandTea Yes, all the Christmas baking! So much fun! 😊 I enjoy the ideas and tips I glean from good magazines, and I'm a very visual person, so I appreciate the layout and colors of all the covers (much like Kindle). Thanks again for sharing! I'll have to mention the app on my gardening channel, and I'll be sure to say where I heard about it. After all, gardeners like to crochet, too! Now I need to pick out colors for some of those coasters... 😊

[@CrochetandTea]

That’s great, I just subscribed to your gardening channel, and I’ll be sure to give it a mentioned in my next podcast!

[@OliveCityOasis]

@@CrochetandTea Oh, that's sweet of you. Thank you! Just so you know, I'm being totally sincere - I do love your channel. 😊 I think a lot of people are 'returning' to things like crochet and crafting, gardening and baking, in context of all that's going on today. Simple living brings so much comfort and satisfaction. And fun - can't forget that!

[@CraftyDragonflyCrochet]

Helloooo, fellow tea drinker here! I've just come across your channel and you've kept me company whilst I've been working on my crochet mosaic cushion. Really enjoyed it. I'm off now to binge watch some more of your videos :) xx

[@CrochetandTea]

Yay, well hello to you to! I’m just reading this whilst drinking a lovely cup of tea! So glad have have you onboard! You’ll have to tag me in your cushion when it’s finished, I’d love to see it!

[@CraftyDragonflyCrochet]

@@CrochetandTea Will do. I'm on IG and have just posted an update 😉

[@OMGrannySquare]

Hello from South Africa!! New subscriber here. I was looking for a crochet podcast and there you were. You mention you love Rooibos!! Oooh my favourite. I often drink it when livestreaming. Would love that bobble stitch cushion tutorial. My friend linda loves that stitch and I think she called it the suzette stitch? I don't know. I stand to be corrected. Yes, I hate yarn barf, so easy start balls are wonderful. I pronounce it 2. Macramé. the way you do. I love good reads, but it must have a good ending because real life is honestly challenging enough. So that would count as a light read if you know it ends well. I made it till the end!! Love listening to you while i crochet on. We are your crochet family for sure..

[@CrochetandTea]

Well hello there fellow Rooibos lover. I’m currently having a mint choc one mmmm! What do you live-stream? That’s sounds very exciting. :) So pleased you liked the Podcast :)

[@wendymaddock7705]

I’ve just finished my cushion so will have a go of crab 🦀 stich love yours xx 😘

[@CrochetandTea]

Amazing, let me know how you get on!

[@viisaur]

Made it to the end :) It was wonderful being able to crochet and listen to you talk and show off your projects - I'm so happy I stumbled across your channel and have subscribed and am looking forward to more videos and podcasts!

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you 🙏 Happy New Year 🥳

[@kathyblatchford3608]

Made it to the end.😊 Looking forward to your next one ....nice mix of things.

[@CrochetandTea]

Thanks 🙏 that’s so great to hear 🤗

[@alishaspence2373]

Love the room layout , hello to the beautiful kitty 🥰

[@CrochetandTea]

Thanks, I was hoping she would turn up and steal the show haha!

[@angelamoss8072]

Made it to the end albeit a year late I think! Crocheted a pan stand - using your coaster pattern - while watching - thank you 😊

[@CrochetandTea]

That's great thank you :-)

[@dinashomespunfun675]

I just found your channel and LOVED this podcast. And YES I did make it to the end!

[@CrochetandTea]

Yay!!!!!! Thank you so much, I loved making these, but alas I feared they weren’t very popular :(

[@viviennehudson1945]

I came across your KZbin page whilst looking for a guide to crochet small flowers (which I will try later). I can't crochet anything other than a chain, but your video looked very easy to follow so I am going to try the flowers and the round coasters. I watched this podcast all the way through. You have a very natural style, very entertaining as well. I also love Bird and Blend tea - my favourites are Mojitea and the ginger chai. I will let you know how I get on with the crochet.

[@CrochetandTea]

🙌 love a bit of ginger chai ☕️ 🥰 great to have you onboard. So glad you liked the video :)

[@txstevenb4332]

I made it to the the end of the video, and really enjoyed it. Clicked that subscribe button and will be watching the coaster videos! You have some really neat ones listed on you channel and I can't wait to try some of the patterns. Cheers from Texas! -Steven

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you, that’s awesome. I look forward to seeing your creations :)

[@scientificexplorergirl3374]

I made it to the end and subscribed. I enjoyed hearing your descriptions of various yarns and their suitablility for specific projects and uses. Thank you for a great first podcast!

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you, I look forward to bringing you my next podcast :)

[@reneciawilson2080]

Hello! Made it to the end. Just subscribed. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I would love to see you finish that granny square jumper. The colors are absolutely lovely together.

[@CrochetandTea]

Thanks you, maybe it will debut as a finished object in Episode 100 😂

[@Pinkpeachandlime]

made it to the end! I enjoyed watching your podcast. I love crocheting, books, cats and tea. Happy Hooking! all the love from the Philippines ^_^

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you, crochet, books, cats and tea! I feel like we’re twins 👯‍♀️ 🤗☺️ all the great thinks in life! Happy Hooking too xox

[@cindytaylor3443]

I made it to the end and enjoyed every minute! I just learned to crochet over the summer - taught myself by watching KZbin videos (yours included - I just made one of your coasters today!) - and I have braved my first garment (cardigan). It's coming along and so far, it seems to fit! Love your sense of humor. I would love to see your tutorial for the basket weave stitch. I found your tutorials easy to follow and were not too fast at all. Perhaps the viewer doesn't realize that they can slow the playback of the video?

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you for your lovely comment. It has made my day! It can be so daunting putting yourself out there on camera. So comments like this on my first ever podcast are so amazing to read! I’m so jealous about your cardigan...alas one day I may retrieve mine from the cupboard of doom and try to complete it hehe! That’s a great tip too about slowing the video down. I’ll be sure to pop that in the comments. I’m just prepping for my 12 days of coasters which starts on Tuesday! So much to get ready but very exciting eeek! Thank you about the basket weave response. I think I’ll hunt the footage out and finally edit :) once again thank you for the lovely message :)

[@django2187]

I really enjoyed this podcast and I love seeing all of the cool stuff that you made. I loved the bobble pillow (stripes and bobbles are not too much!). I would like if you could maybe talk a little louder. I have a hard time hearing and I have to crank the volume. But then the ads scream at me. Other than that, great job on the podcast! Looking forward to more!

[@CrochetandTea]

Thanks for the feedback. I was worried it was a little quiet. I think I need to find a better way to record the sound as I was quite far away from the mic. I know what you mean about turning the volume up and then the ads are so loud they come as a bit of a shock hehe! Glad you loved the bobble cushion: I’m thinking I may use the other yarn cakes I have to make another bobble cushion! Maybe a slightly smaller one though. 😊

[@diklee3165]

I'm obsessed with coasters too. I think I learned from you. :)

[@CrochetandTea]

I'm starting to dream about coasters...I'm going to try and make some Christmas pudding coasters in the next week or two

[@heartygirl1]

I so enjoyed your video!!!!

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you 😊

[@wendystock7022]

Yes please bobble stitch cushion patern!

[@CrochetandTea]

Thanks for the feedback :)

[@keerichards7294]

Love your podcast!❤️Warm greetings from the Netherlands😊

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you so much, greetings to you too ☺️

[@PennyRichardsonUK]

I made it to the end! 😂 Definitely pronounce macrame #2 same as you!

[@CrochetandTea]

Yay thank you another vote for #2 hehe 😉

[@blessthishomewithlove3805]

First time here and I made it all to the end. Love your podcast . 😊

[@CrochetandTea]

Thanks you, that’s so lovely to hear. I’m looking forward to filming the next one x

[@debraitaliano4831]

Great vlog , l was finishing off some coasters when you amazingly began talking about yours 😃. I pronounce macrame as you do 🤔thanks from Sydney 🇦🇺

[@CrochetandTea]

Yay, thank you 🙏

[@carolinefortheloveofcrochet]

Which issue was your summer granny square top in. I really like it!

[@CrochetandTea]

I think I have a digital issue. Email me at [e-mail] and I can send you some screen grabs x

[@abhinkrishna5516]

Your videos are sooo good

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you 🙏

[@TheVampiregirl84]

Where did you get the llama pillow that is behind you? It is so so cute.

[@CrochetandTea]

Heya, it’s actually a little microwave hottie! I’m not sure, I think it was a present. :)

[@diklee3165]

granny squares are beautiful. You cracked me up with sewing all the loose ends. I don't like them either. macrame = 1

[@CrochetandTea]

Soooo many ends...that bag has been firmly hidden at the back of the cupboard! :-)

[@mishellegarrett9243]

I've heard it called the griddle stitch : )

[@CrochetandTea]

Amazing 🤩

[@bethanyjohnson5598]

Enjoyed your video from Tennessee. How about cosy?

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you x

[@jayd9854]

Macrame 2, that is the way I pronounce it!! I suspect he first pronounciation, is the way the American's pronounce it.

[@CrochetandTea]

Yay! Thanks

[@memyaify]

I made it to the end and I subscribed! Thank you - it was a very enjoyable podcast. Emily 😻(@wembleycrochet)

[@CrochetandTea]

Thank you for the follow. Your cat is adorable 🥰

[@EvieBear236]

Too many ads.

[@CrochetandTea]

I’m afraid I don’t have control over this. I would image the longer the video the more ads. Please try to remember that the adverts are what helps to support KZbin and provide these video tutorials available to you for free. 🤗

[@Denise-ei2pu]

Can't hear her!!!!!

[@CrochetandTea]

Sorry to hear that, I do hope you’ll try my 2nd Podcast and let me know how the volume is on that one for you. Thanks 🙏
