Bernant blanket has changed the way it feels. It is so soft and fluffy now.

[@crochetbygenna]

Its sooo soft!! I agree!!

[@FrenchFrles]

I really want you to do a crochet with me with just the loaf cats!

[@emster1238]

I'm in a few different facebook groups for vendor shows in my area and scams are sadly common. Half of the posts I see are of different people warning each other about which "contacts" for markets are scammers.

[@julieann5196]

Hi Genna, great video. Shay didn't want to give up being in the video, so sweet!! The opossum snugglers are so adorable! The mermaid animals are so adorable too!! I'll have to pick the cat mermaid as my favorite.

I purchased both new opossum patterns.... GURL IM IN LOVE!!!!!!! The snuggler ended up same size as my Chihuahua and she loves it!

[@charityscrochetcreations]

Hi Genna! I would like to say thanks for the longer video! I am crocheting a baby blanket for my niece, and it is taking a while, so it was awesome to have your newest video to sit down and watch!

[@crochetbygenna]

Awww of course, so happy you enjoyed watching! The baby blanket sounds adorable :)

[@pekaro11]

Your Opossum is so cute. I laugh every time someone pronounces opossum. Growing up I was taught that the "O" is silent but it's correct pronounced either way. I laugh because I know my teacher would be having a hissy fit to be told either way is correct.

[@Alixsbooktherapy]

They are two different animals possums are so much more different

[@pekaro11]

@@Alixsbooktherapy Yes, Possums are native to Australia, New Zealand, and China, while Opossums live in America. The possum has a furry tail, while the opossum has a bare tail and there is a difference in size, color and type of fur, not to mention a few other details. HOWEVER, both possum and opossum correctly refer to the Virginia opossum frequently seen in North America. In common use, possum is the usual term; in technical or scientific contexts opossum is preferred. Opossum can be pronounced with its first syllable either voiced or silent. The Opossum made here is of the North America Possum. Thank you!

OMG that Opossum is just the cutest😍🥰 I do love possums. When living in MO, i had one coming every night and it ended being so tame that i could pet it. Unfortunally it just dissappered one day and never came back

[@artistantlers]

I agree about the blanket yarn! For an unstuffed plushie it feels so much squishier than the chenille yarn

[@clicksandcrochets2929]

It’s more sturdy too so holds its shape better :)

[@theMermaidRhonda]

I need to get some of those glitter eyes! I also have that mermaid pattern and now I really want to make one! They all turned out so cute!

[@clicksandcrochets2929]

I wish say, I really like the premier basix chenille BUT I have gotten some bad batches from premier unfortunately :( The last batch was super pilly and the fluff was falling out! It was so bad!!! Also, on the body, it’s easier and fast to a hdc is read of single crochets. Since it’s not stuffed on that part you don’t need a tight stitch. All of my smugglers I only use a sc on the head, limbs and tails, then hdc on the flat body part :)

[@umapoorani2765]

Love your vids!!!

If you want a fun accessory for your sunglasses I noticed Lottie and Alberts Curate Crochet subscription for June is an adorable sunglasses case. I personally opted out of that one as I don't need sunglasses all that often in Scotland but thought it was an adorable crochet kit for those that would get use of it!

Like the cow mermaid.

[@liarossi123]

Opossums are popular in the garden community too! They are the only marsupials (carry their young in a pouch) north of Mexico. They eat thousands of ticks a season, reducing the prevalence of Lyme disease. Another fun fact-They play dead when scared by a predator. And they are immune to snake venom! Such amazing little creatures! ❤

[@LaviniaDing]

hi genna ! about your comment on bernat blanket - did you try it before or after the mass rework ? i wasn't a huge fan of the old bernat blanket either but they reformulated it to make it SUPER soft (honestly just as soft to parfait chunky yarn and sweet snuggles lite in my opinion), so i was just curious to know your thoughts. also, i heard some controversy around premier yarns as a brand recently as well so i'm kind of hesitant from buying from them anyways, i'm a longtime fan and mostly a silent viewer, but i watch every single one of your videos and you were the one who inspired me to start crocheting in the first place (i actually have my first market coming up in a couple months), so thank you for all your hard work and keep it up !
