Crochet Podcast Episode 28

[@aiyana1975]

I love your podcasts. Your energy is so bright and vibrant. My name is April. I lived in Arizona USA for the last 8 years. But I missed my family way to much. S9 in Feb I donated most of my stuff and packed my car and my dog and cat and moved back home to Pennsylvania USA. I'm so happy to be home.

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi April! So nice to meet you! And glad you are back home where you are happiest! xx!

[@sylviabryant9433]

You look absolutely gorgeous Christa. Love you podcasts. I'm so excited about the Kenya vaca, wish I could come, but I know you guys will podcast and share. I'm really happy for you and Holly's (The Proper Pineapple) new friendship. I follow you both and am getting just as excited as you two about the vaca. Smiles, love and hugs.

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Sylvia!! You are so kind. I wish you could join us too! xx

[@nickfilter]

Christian, you look younger and prettier every podcast! Love your hair! I would love you to keep doing a short podcast, but time with your family is the most important and precious thing. Hugs.

[@SecretYarnery]

AWE! Thank you so much, Valorie!! You are so sweet. xx!!

[@lisapena8602]

Thanks Renae!! You are so kind!! xx!

[@GoonerMetalhead]

I took ill last year and have been off work since last August. I took up crochet to help me put my days in and it also helps with my anxiety. My hands don’t work properly anymore so I’m slow and sometimes have to stop which is frustrating but I stick at it and get my projects finished. I love watching your videos, they are so helpful and fun to watch while I’m off work and need something to keep me occupied :)

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh - sorry to hear that Jem. It must be quite frustrating for your hands to not keep up. Glad we can spend some time together, though! xx!

[@deborahalexander8250]

Hi Christa! This is Deb in Washington state. I have been crocheting more than 40 years and I love your podcast! Your haircut is outstanding!

[@SecretYarnery]

Awe - thanks so much!! :)

[@shelabee]

Thanks Christa for the drive around Kenya is makes me want to come see you even more. Oh by the way I am Shela Black from Colorado City, Arizona, USA. I don't know if I can make it happen but I am going to try and come in February. I am a school teacher for grades 6-12. I crochet in between classes and when I am working with students one on one. I also use my summer holiday to crochet almost non,- stop. I have 7 children 1 which is adopted and the only one that had not graduated ( he had one more year of school). Live watching you and hat all about Kenya. Have a wonderful day.

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh so exciting Shela! I SO hope you can make it for February!!!! That would be awesome! And congrats on having more kids than me - that doesn't happen very often. lol! :)

[@zenacarroll5711]

Your hair looks absolutely devine. Thanks for this Podcast

[@SecretYarnery]

[@jaimejones8060]

And you do whatever works best for you during the summer months so you are able to spend time with your kids!

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Jaime!! xx

[@helenwalker6918]

Hi Christa. Helen from Vancouver Island here. I love your you tube videos and podcasts. Especially the trips at the end. I feel as if I'm in the car with you. Some scary drivers there. Not unlike some of the drivers here as well. Universal bad drivers. Must have all gone to the same driving school perhaps. I also subscribe toThe Proper Pineapple videos. Love Holly. What an amazing experience to be able to participate with you both in the Kenya crochet vacation. Sounds wonderful.

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Helen! So nice to meet you!! I love Vancouver Island! Spent many a summer in Courtenay! Hope you can come to Kenya with her - that would be awesome!! xx!!

[@karatstixraw]

Hello Christa! I am Karen from San Mateo, California. Have started watching your videos and love them all! For summer maybe you could do 2 videos per month instead of every week? Love that you share Kenya with those of us who are not able to experience it otherwise!!! You are a beautiful person inside and out. I am inspired to crochet whatever you crochet!! Hugs and thank you for being you!

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh - thank you so much, Karen!! You are so sweet. xx

[@kimp7899]

The blankets came out awesome! They look so warm and snuggly. ☺️ 10,000!!!!! WTG 💥🎉🌈🌟⭐️☀️💫😝🎉💜 You decide what fits into your life and we will all be here to support and learn. The time with the kids is what is the most important because before you know it they will be having children of their own. Believe me it happens so very fast my dear. 💜🌼

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Kimmy!! You are so sweet. Your support means the world to me. xx!

[@cherylwalker4494]

Hi Christa. I'm from Pennsylvania. Enjoy watching your videos. I've never made a shawl until your Erigeneia CAL. Now I've done 3 of the Erigeneia and I'm on my 2nd Lost in Time shawl. You made it less intimidating to use a chart. Look forward to seeing more of your videos and more of Kenya!

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh I am so happy to hear that, Cheryl!!!! Victory!!!! xx!!

[@debsmyth595]

Hi Christa, love watching you!!! I think alternating between live chat and podcasts would be great. Have a great day!!

Hello Krista I heard you ask what would I like to see more of over the summer and I would like to see more of the lives. The live video maybe what you going shopping where you got all the jury at that day because I'm still fascinated with that blue it was so gorgeous. I like your on a wrapping the mail that day. I enjoy I enjoy a lot of what you do so just about whatever you decide will be fine with me so long. So just keep doing something. Thank you Krista for making the podcast and the life videos.

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh - thank you so much, ,Tina!! You are so kind. XX!

[@margaretmcneil7182]

You look very pretty today Krista. I love your orange dress. I’m looking forward to the basket tutorial. Over the Summer I would enjoy podcasts and maybe a tutorial or two if you have time. 💖🦋🌸🐳🌿🍍

[@SecretYarnery]

Thank you Margaret! I will do my best! xx

[@marie-jo7976]

Hi Christa, your new look is beautiful, new glasses too. Your two blanklets are very nice. Summer for me is may to september relax at my camping site 4 days a weeks, we relax in front of a lake, go on boat and kayak.

[@SecretYarnery]

[@SecretYarnery]

Thank you! xx

[@TheDuckylove1]

That blanket is gorgeous!! Love it !!

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Denise!

[@lindahinds8388]

Hi Linda here. I did introduced myself in the facebook group but will redo for you. I am retired on a medical disability. Im 62 but young at heart. I live in Michigan south east side. I have 1 daughter, 1 grandson, and 1 granddaughter. I crochet the most, I do knit, counted cross stitch, 3d diamond painting, I have a table top weaving loom, and I want a spinning wheel. I love books both crafting and novels. I now only have 1 dog, but have had fish tanks, peach faced love birds, finches, quaker parakeet, dogs that crosses over the rainbow bridge. I love watching podcasts that are about crocheting or knitting. I love your extras on Kenya. Ok I think that covers it. I was trying to figure out a way to come to Kenya but I just dont think I could do the walking so I will just be home waiting for you and Holly to go live or shoot out some videos. Bye for now. 😁

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Linda!! So nice to meet you! Thank you! I am not on Facebook as much as I wish I was. We will DEFINITELY be doing a LOT of live chats when Holly is here - don't even fret about it! SUCH fun! xx

[@60x2andgood]

Absolutly amazing blanket !!! Bet your son is super excited !!!

[@SecretYarnery]

Sure was, Penny! Loves it!! xx

[@EvieO1950]

Totally love that you put family first. I prefer the podcast to the live (more informative) but podcast could be less frequent or shorter. The CALs and tutorials are my favorites though. There are so many podcasters but not nearly as many that actually teach!! Whatever makes your summer fun for you will work for me - enjoy those kiddos they’ll be grown and gone before you know it!

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Evelyn!! You are wonderful. xx

[@MaryVGomez]

Those are great blankets, love the color combos.

[@SecretYarnery]

Thank you Mary!! xx

[@purplepaws2]

Hi Lynda! So nice to meet you!! Thank you so much! xx

[@PurpleGalaxyFox83]

I will crocheting Christmas presents and gone camping and fishing. Love the hairstyle.

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh sounds so fun, Yvette!! Well done! xx

[@marywanamaker2700]

Hi Christa it’s Mary from New York...your hair looks great! Always love your podcasts. I’m working on my C2C not sure if I’m making a shawl or a blanket. I look forward to making the large blue bag you made it’s definitely on my list to do! Don’t worry about us. Family time is more important. You will be surprise how quickly the kids grow up. My triplets are now 18 and all going away to college.😢 congratulations on 10,000.00 subscribers. I hope I can catch you live.

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Mary!! I hope we can chat live too! Glad you like the hair! xx!

[@dawntenneson6360]

Hi Christa I'm from Sequim, Washington. I've been enjoying your KZbin and love to see what Kenya is like! Your blankets are fantastic and the basket organizers are what I need. Anxious too to make a cardigan with the c2c rectangle. Thank you again for everything!

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Dawn! So nice to meet you! I can't wait for my cardigan to be finished too. Got it down to the double decrease part, but on hold until I can film it. :) xx!

Thanks Kim!!

Thank you for sharing the site to make the graphics❤

[@sharle6]

Hi Christa, I think I will intro myself. My name is Sharleen from Las Vegas Nevada, originally from Portland Oregon. I am a mother of 2 adult children and have been married for over 26 years now. I was taught to crochet by my grandmother visually. She didn't use any patterns. So I think that is why I don't know how to read a crochet pattern. Well, that and that I taught myself how to knit from a book and can read a knitting pattern so I get confused by when trying to read a crochet pattern and I have no clue what the stitches are called lol. So as far as crochet it is easier for me to learn via videos. When I was pregnant with our first child 25 years ago I taught my husband to crochet the stitches that I knew how to do in order to crochet our babies first baby blanket. He hasn't crocheted after that at all. He is very proud of his work though and he should be as it is a pretty blanket. Our daughter still has this blanket as well.

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Sharleen! So nice to meet you! Thank you! How marvelous that you husband learned the stitches! Bravo!! xx

[@brendacraig9043]

LoL keep up the podcasts since you always inculed your country with us and your awesome family trips my name is Brenda I'm a Nannie to four kids that means I have a limited time to crochet and watch utube videos lol

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Brenda! Nice to meet you!! My first job after high school was being a nanny for 4 kids! Loved it. But it was an action packed life! :) xx

[@ruthking8400]

Hi! This is Ruth King. Thank you for mentioning me on your podcast! I totally forgot to say where I'm from. :) I'm from the Central San Joaquin Valley in California. I live in a small town. We grow crops and have dairy farms here. ;) Have a great a great day! :)

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Ruth! Sounds beautiful where you live! Thank you. xx!!

[@loretta686ify]

Hi Christa can't wait to do the c2c cardigan with your tutorials are awesome!!!

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Loretta!!! I'm working on it! :D xx!!

[@TheZencha]

Hi Christa!!! Congratz on 10 K !!!!!Your Boys blankets are DONE !!! wow and they are happy :) Oh, just enjoy your time with kids, and do whatever suits you. It will be surely well received, and I will be happy to watch you every once in a while. Hugs from Croatia, xx .Ada

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Ada!! You are so sweet! xx

[@hollytinny831]

You are now my go to channel. Before you I used to watch Crystal but all I have to seen is everything that I have seen before. . I haven’t seen anything new lately. I check in every so often to see if anything is new . I have found a few new episodes so I have watched them. But I have going to your channel every day.

[@JennsCraftyWorld]

Great podcast: still binge watching your previous episodes! For your Subscriber pillow, could you work it in single crochet or afghan stitch and then cross stitch the letters with yarn over the "squares"? Happy days, Jenn@Jenn's Crafty World

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Jenn! Thank you so much!! That's a great idea. I started a couple nights ago... switching yarns, and keeping them attached on the back side. I just want it finished so bad! xx!!

[@janellecruz5417]

Great podcast as always!! 💖💖💖 Keep the summer with the fam!! Maybe 1 or 2 times a month.

[@SecretYarnery]

Thank you Janelle! I'll see what I can do. xx!

[@cosettalaws7812]

Hey Christa I love the Podcasts! My vote is podcasts during the summer and/or CAL 😁. Thanks for all you do!

[@SecretYarnery]

COSETTA!!!! You little sneaky rockstar!! Seems I have a PARCEL from YOU!! Waiting to open it when I am filming, so I can share your generosity with the world!! SO EXCITED!!!!!!!

[@cosettalaws7812]

The Secret Yarnery Hey Christa 😁 I am so glad you got it! It’s just a little something, I hope you like it. Just my way of saying thank you for taking the time to spend with us KZbinrs! 🐢😁😁

[@mellodym5931]

Hi! Cute hair! You look pretty and happy today! :) Hope you had a good lunch with your hubby! Nice, warm looking blankets! Enjoy your time spent with the family. That's the most important and you're making memories! So... do whatever is easiest for you this summer! I'm sure we'll all find something to do (make)! :) That's so sad about the schools but how awesome is it for a child to have such a desire to learn that they lean against a door to listen. And the girls thing, that's just sad. Have a great rest of the week! See you Friday!

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Mellody!! Thank you so much for your wise words. As always! xx!!

[@kecall7962]

Love your podcasts! Thats my vote for the summer.

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Kelly!! xx

[@kerrynwright]

Your hair looks gorgeous Christa! Congrats on 10K subscribers & those 2 cool scraptastic blankets for your sons! Thanks for the links for transforming pictures into graphs for afghans etc. Soooooo cool!! I've only ever designed a heart shape for a C2C preemie blanket, but used graph paper & did it by hand! Sooooo using that site next time!! You've probably worked out by now that I'll take the easiest route every time!! Ha ha! I just checked out Holly's site earlier today & I've subscribed to her channel too..... loved it! 💕

[@SecretYarnery]

That's fabulous, Kerryn Wright!! xx

[@sandraschwientek4962]

Hi guys, during the podcast last week my house got flooded.wewere wading in 6nches of water at midnight.well, we are still cleaning and drying things out.the whole district got flooded and even the shopping centre is closed.out problem is my husband and i are not wel enugh to be doing such a big job, but slowly slowly we getting there.tonight is the first night ive had a bed to sleep in and we got carpet laid today.it makes such a difference keeping warm.for those that dont know Tasmania in Oz is the coldest state as we pretty close to Antarctica so carpet and heat especially with my asthema is essential.crossed fingers no water while i watch tonight,lol. Sandra in Tassie

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh NO Sandra!! Such horrible news! I hope you have dried out your home by now. Must have been so awful!!!!

[@connieholden5786]

[@SecretYarnery]

Thank you!! xx

[@jennifereckard7978]

I have made a lot of graph blankets. Several of them I used graph paper and designed it myself. Super easy to do charts!

[@SecretYarnery]

You are so brave! My oldest son wants a black one with read and orange flames at the bottom. ...Not there yet! ha ha ha xx

[@alexcrichton6102]

Hi christa , I've just started a c2c granny stitch which I'm going to make into shrug/cardigan by making a rectangle shape like your WIP. Keep up the good work and stay hooked 🤗

[@SecretYarnery]

Thank you Alex!!! xx

[@annasullivan4946]

Hello Christa, Too bad our children don't realize how lucky they are to attend school the way it is in the USA. So sorry to hear how difficult an education can be for some children in the world. You look great today you always look nice but today you are especially pretty. Are those new glasses Christa? They look really nice. I would like to see a tutorial & pod cast if you could rotate between them that would be nice...whatever works for you and your family just grateful to connect with you and our fellow crocheters. Anna WI~

[@SecretYarnery]

Awe - thanks so much Anna!! Yup - new glasses! Got 3 pair. Wait till you see my favorites! :) xx!

[@mshoe-martz3773]

[@angieprescott1567]

Hello I am Angela from Savannah GA. I loved the drive I was telling the cars and people to move out of the road. 😂🤣

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Angela! So glad you enjoyed it! I was probably telling them to get off the road too. ha ha ha!! xx

[@Dawn-bd5gu]

I would prefer crochet CAL or tutorials during your summer break if possible. thanks Dawn from Holland MI

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Dawn! xx

[@reneehebert6986]

Hello. Here is my self introduction. I am a spinster who lives in Charleston, SC. I am a middle aged woman who never married, never had children, has two cats and crochets: if that's not a spinster stereotype come to life, then I don't know what is. (I am personally trying to bring the word spinster into fashion.) :-) I have been crocheting on and off since I was 10. My mother taught me to chain and single crochet, and I taught myself the rest. Admittedly, after over 35 years of crocheting, I really should be better at it than I am, but I'm perfectly happy with what I can do and always like learning something new. I really enjoy your channel. If I had to choose one thing from you for the summer, it would be the podcasts, but I will watch whatever you choose to upload. Thanks for your videos and smiles! Also, your hair looks great!

[@SecretYarnery]

So nice to meet you Renee!! Thanks for introducing yourself!! I think Spinster is a TOTALLY hip word. :D xx!!

[@juliejredmart]

Oh & the boy's blankets are great! 👍

[@SecretYarnery]

Thanks Julie! xx

[@kavitashah2924]

That hair is everything 😍

[@SecretYarnery]

Thank you Veets!

[@theastewart6721]

Hi Christa. I know you know me but I’m not sure that I ever introduced myself properly. Probably not as I don’t like it either. I never have as my name is unusual. I am from Massachusetts. Grew up in MetroWest Boston. We are huge Boston sports fans. I am mom to one daughter and 3 sons like you! My daughter is the oldest then came the boys! I am grandmother to 9 beautiful grandkids, 4 girls and 5 boys and have 1 angel baby grandson in heaven. Went back to school for 5 years straight to finish my bachelors degree and straight into law school. I had my associates degree. I started my own practice at 40 and am a public interest attorney. I used to do a lot of family law. Now I concentrate on representing the mentally ill although I do general law as well. I am an avid knitter and crocheter. I learned both as a child and usually take a class every Wednesday night. I have a great teacher and am always learning new things! So that sums me up. Oops. Let’s not forget husband of 40 years lol! My question for you is this. How was it learning to drive on the left side of the road after coming from a country where they drive on the right? Regarding the summer, whatever works best for all works for me. Off to work!😀

[@SecretYarnery]

So nice to learn more about you, Thea!! Thank you!!! Your questions are noted for the next Podcast. xx!

[@hellokittymomxs3]

Congrats on the 10K 🎉 I just got a chance to watch this podcast and always fun! Love the hair and lashes. I just got my lashes done yesterday. I want to come even more now after watching you drive around. And a master class with Holly and her dolls would be so amazing! She made a Molly doll that I wanted so bad for a little boy who's mom passed away almost 2 years ago when he was 3months old and her name is Molly. He's a little redhead anyways... adorable dolls. I feel like I always have too much to say lol 😍

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi Terri!! LOVE having my lashes done. So hard to go back to natural after all that glamour! lol It would be WONDERFUL if you joined us in February!!! How FUN!!! Can you imagine? We could all make dolls together! lol!! :D

[@hellokittymomxs3]

The Secret Yarnery yes that would so much fun!

Have a good weekend hear from you on friday

[@Kynlay08]

Guess I never actually introduced myself. I’m Kellie from Wisconsin USA. Been crocheting sense 2016-17, knit a bit before that but when I found crochet I stoped knitting. Started crocheting a lot more while I was pregnant with my daughter who is now 18m. Hoping some day to start my own crochet something, haven’t really thought about it much.

Hi Christa! Love your hair. It looks great. Love your finished blankets for the boys. Love the colors. I would love for you to do just a podcast during the summer. That would probably be the quickest thing to do when you want to do them. Thanks for all the inspiration you give and thanks for the tour of Kenya. Looking forward to your next video!

HI RACHEL! ...I already started the "pillow"... going for more of a bolster theme, but absolutely LOVING it!!! How are the kids? xx

[@rachelpowell3809]

The Secret Yarnery. I can't wait to see the bolster pillow it's going to be lush. Just like all the other projects that you make. The kiddies are great thankyou hun. How are your beautiful babies doing? I'm still pondering on what blanket to do with the beautiful wool you sent. As soon as I do I'll show you xxxx
