[@debbieward-crochet]

You are like a kid in the candy store, enjoying those eyes! 😊

[@lenamaner4227]

Love the kitty

[@vernawhitehouse6784]

I love that black sparkly cat. That is perfect for Halloween. Everything you make is just adorable. I hope you sell a lot at your next craft fair.

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you!

[@Willie-b8b]

I love the cat and the new eyes too!!! The cacti are wonderful!!! As an adult I enjoy the whimsy of childlike items alot. Just to cheer me up sitting on a desk or table. But plain would still be cute. But I'd buy myself a cat or a cow too!!! Too cute!!! Thank you

[@jackiebechler8823]

Absolutely love the cat!! So adorable in yarn you used!!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you! 😊

[@ebbiediaz4818]

Love the cat in that yarn

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you! 🥰

[@Shannam10]

Oooo that kitty looks waaaay cuter on video😍. I like the glitz! Some kid is going to be over the moon with that cat. Love all your cows. I'm totally using dragon eyes on your dragon💕

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you! 😊

[@DeannaCrochetMagician]

Robin you are so creative. I love the cows. I made a huge cow for a lady that works at a dairy plant that takes care of the milk to set on her desk. It set at least 10". She loved it. I love the eyes. I have so many I need to use up before getting more. I would so much rather watch these crochet KZbin videos than NETFLIX!!!!!!! Thanks again for your video.

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

I’m still looking for just the right cow. I really like them standing on 4 leg style. I’ve gone through most of my Amazon eyes. I’ll use them up but I couldn’t wait to try these out! They look so much better!!!

[@nanastacep1331]

All these makes are "Robin quality". Keep doin what your doin! Hugs!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you! Will do!

[@Jmb-k8r]

I like the cows with a pink nose and the flatter one. I was raised on a dairy farm. Love the cows

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

I like the flatter noses too!

[@Sheila-b3i]

A quick afterthought about the curlywurly cacti, if you were to add a hanging element to the pot it would maybe balance off the plant and add some of the height you felt it needed. Keep them coming I love your makes Sheila x

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thanks 😊

[@RanaesCrochet]

I love the cat’s eyes!! Those are also really cute as snake eyes! The black glitter is adorable! Love those 3d eyes! Loved all of your cows too! They are all adorable!!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you!🥰 You're right I didn't even think about those eyes for snakes!

[@theresaburg5881]

I agree with you about the pink muzzle. Now to try some rainbow coloured cows with purple or blue spots!!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Maybe, I tried a strawberry cow and it looks more like a pig in the face the muzzle needs to be bigger. Not any of these patterns it was a different one.

[@sarahschreffler5407]

I adore the size of that cat! And the black sparkle yarn works well for a black cat

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Cool! Thanks!!😊

[@aparlinproject]

Hahaha you jumped.on the plant train 🥰🥰🥰👋👋

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Yes I did! You told me they were good sellers. Hopefully I picked the right kind!

[@aparlinproject]

@@KnottingHookCrochet you did good they look adorable!!!

[@AntisocialAuntie]

"If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" is still so popular, right now 22 out of 31 copies are checked out of the library. Smart for her to put a cookie option. The cows are all so cute 🥰 I might need to get those dragon eyes. My AliExpress order came this week and they are great! Now I need to get my fingers moving faster 🤭

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

The dragon eyes are so much nicer than the other eyes on Amazon. The Aliexpress eyes are fantastic!

[@AntisocialAuntie]

@@KnottingHookCrochet I am not sure what size of eyes to get so that variety pack sounds good! As I use up the Bernat, I will try the thinner soft yarns. Do you think you will use the Furls hook again or is it too hard on your hand?

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

@@AntisocialAuntie I'll have to try it again to give it a fair shot.

[@susanjones-szabo9595]

You can circle punch sparkling scrapbook paper to swap out for the eye backs to get some other color choices as well. Maybe try with the amazon eyes you aren’t so happy with? Be careful…next thing we know you will be posting a video on the eyes you are painting 😁

[@debgrandsard9062]

oh my..that black & white cow is adorable! 😍🧶

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you!😊

[@druzybear]

wowww the cat is gorgeous!

[@jennycampbell1333]

Hi Robin, love your makes. I like the faces on the flowerpots I think it gives it character. Have you thought of making brown and white cows? I like the brown one you made too, thy're all cute. Have a great day 🙂

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

So far people tend to gravitate towards the black and white. When I find just the right cow pattern I’ll try other colors.

[@nancywilliams798]

Loving the plants they are cute ❤ My most popular items are cows and dragons . Anyway you always make beautiful plushies 😊 Till next video Happy Crocheting 🧶

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

I’m hoping it works the same for me! What cow pattern do you use?

[@SuturesandStuffies]

Hi, Robin. Thank you again so much for making and sharing your mouse. Yours turned out so adorable.

[@SuturesandStuffies]

Oop. I guess I can't post links. My bad. The link to my Etsy is in my KZbin bio if you would like to check the mouse out. ❤️

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

You are so welcome! I put the link for your shop in the description. I'm hearing that the cookie is a great idea!

[@conniescrochetedcreations]

I'll be purchasing the mouse pattern as that is SUPER adorable!!! 🥰🐭

[@JOSWEBCROCHET]

Now I need a cow! Lol I made a No sew plushy cactus in a pot! Lol I’m hoping to have the pattern written up soon but, I have a lot of people wanting the granny top first. 🤪 Somebody sent me some time! Lol

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

I was setting there showing them and the movie Twister popped into my head. “Cow” “another cow” 😂 a no sew cactus in a pot would be very cool!

[@Implied_Confessions]

The little round cactus is begging for a face. 😊

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

It’s begging for something for sure 😂

[@conniescrochetedcreations]

Hi Robin! I love all of your makes this week. Those plants are awesome! Now I want to make some of those. 😍 I purchased your dragon pattern and started it this afternoon. I hope to finish it tomorrow. ☺ I can't wait to see it all finished up! 🐉

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

The little plants are so relaxing to make. You’ll have to tag me on instagram so I can see the dragon!

Congrats on 1 year. 🪐

I love the maroon pot with the dk pink flower on top! You make so much great stuff

[@sarahschreffler5407]

Any possibility of the Arizona style cactus? (Saguaro with the arms)

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thanks so much 😊

[@MystLily]

I think the eyes make the plushie, sometimes I'm frozen on a make because the eyes just aren't doing it for me. I love the off-centre eyes and the ones with the white pupils are just amazing and next I want to try the red pupil off-centre eyes

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

I really like the off centered, the white and red pupils haven't grown on me yet.

[@sarahschreffler5407]

I love my flowers on a stick. I'd love to have a tulip too to go in my vase.

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

I haven’t made any of those!

[@NancyZepp]

Beautiful plants. I have about 250 house plants. now I need some crochet ones also! ❤

Good morning! I'm so glad to see your video

[@sarahschreffler5407]

If you give a Mouse a Cookie.... Definitely need a cookie

[@cottontailcrafts1719]

Your welcome on the eyes! Love everything you made! I believe it was seaglass for the color of cactus 😊 It was same color I used on my dragon. Can't wait to see those eyes on puff!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

You're probably right about the seaglass, it's such a pretty color!

[@aparlinproject]

You could add parts of that scrub yarn on for "pokes" on the cactus

[@iheartyarnta]

Your cows and succulents are too cute!! I just made my first cows one from Wonder Crochet and one from Crochet by Genna. I need to do succulent. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thanks for watching! I haven't tried either of those cow patterns, I'll have to take a look at them.

[@Sheila-b3i]

Hi, i'm just blown away with your makes today. They are awesome. I think your have one of the most interesting content on your tube...every video is jam packet with new items, tips, inspiration and advice. You made me smile when, you kept producing new cacti I had the same problem with the real variety, they look so cool, I can see how you got hooked. I thought the round one would make a fabulous pin cushion...I could see the pins representing the prickles. I've ordered some of the eyes you were showing too, they are out of this world and I will be using them when I make your dragon pattern. love and best wishes Sheila :0)x

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you! I can’t wait to use the eyes on the dragon. They looked so cool on the cat.

[@Jennifer-oi8ni]

Robin, For the succulent pots you should do the one that look like the vine ones but, in a acrylic yarn. And I see alot of them as rear view mirror hangers. Tfs jen in south dakota

[@marleenjohnston4749]

Make an Orange witch hat for your black cat! Cute for Halloween!

[@TangledTidings]

With the 3D eyes, that tool is an absolute life saver! I try to exclusively use the 3D eyes (they aren't as prone to coming out) Only thing I do different is I put the eye against my desk (I have a thick keyboard mat so it protects the eye) and press the tool down onto it. Works with 12mm up to 30mm I can say for sure.

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

I'm afraid I would break it. Have you had any break on you? (the tool)

[@TangledTidings]

​@KnottingHookCrochet 1, but it was after I'd been using it that way for months. Really your way is probably better

[@kkcrochet]

That cat is adorable!!!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Thank you!😊

[@craftlover9702]

Hi Robin, I really like the Prym hooks for Bernat. They are cheapest on Amazon as opposed to Joann's, at least in my area.. I purchased your dinosaur pattern and I'm about 3/4 done. I mentioned this on Heather's live last night, I swear you must be a mathematical genius. I cannot even imagine how you constructed the pattern but it is amazing!! I am surprising myself on how he is turning out!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

It was more frogging than math 😂

[@craftlover9702]

@@KnottingHookCrochet LOL, whatever it was, you did amazing!

[@KnittyKitty215]

I crocheted a barrel cactus like yours a few weeks ago. It looked a bit plain so I took a tiny hook and pulled a bit of stuffing through to show up on the outside. If you look at pics of those barrel cactus you will see that they have a fuzz all over them around the thorns. You could also put the "face" on the cactus instead of the pot. I can't wait to see all the dragons that everyone has been making from your patterns.

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Did pulling the fuzz out help?

[@KnittyKitty215]

@@KnottingHookCrochet I think it made it look like the real thing. I did that over the whole thing and it made sort of a halo look to it.

[@jennycampbell1333]

​I was wondering would those tiny little pom poms work, or would they still be too big? (the ones for crafts)

[@evelyngorfram9306]

I like the idea of the face on the little round cactus. I was thinking that the bud flower looked kind of like a nose, and the blossom flower was in just the place for a hair ornament (or, with another flower or two, pink blossoming "hair").

[@ZeshaTheCat]

Love the cacti! They're so cute!

You make wonderful Ami's. Love your dragon. Followed you after making your crochet/weave blanket which I have made several!!! Have you seen the cacti that looks like fingers and you can manipulate the fingers to say something....if you know what I mean. takes a sense of humor for sure to make/sell them. I think it would sell, do you think so ? Love your thought process. Could listen to you all day long. Take care. Best of luck with your fairs.

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Yes I have seen that one, I think that would depend on what venue you are setting up at. But for sure people with a sense of humor!!

[@ninapeters1919]

Hi! I love watching your videos. I have learned so much. I was happy to hear you say that the Furls hooks were heavy and would take getting used too. I just bought one and I’ve never really used anything but the Walmart Boys brand. They are cheap and accessible. So, I want to try a higher rated brand. I wasn’t too excited about it because of what you just said, it feel bulky and odd in my hand. I just told my self maybe it’s the yarn I’m using and I just need to try it a little more. Hearing you say that makes me feel better. I am going to try it was different yarn, I was using 100% cotton which I use all the time but I couldn’t get into the groove what the Furls hook. Thanks for the great videos!

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

A really good hook that is mid price range is the Clover hooks. But they don’t have metal in the larger sizes. Everyone that I know that makes the plushies use the clover hooks. I need a big one to use with Bernat blanket so I’ll give a few more try’s because it is very different and the blanket yarn does glide smoothly across the hook.

[@ninapeters1919]

@@KnottingHookCrochet I’ll give them a try. Thank you!

Not too sure about that one.

[@MimiMakesKeepsakes]

Cute Lil cows! I need to make! What size is the furl stainless steal hook? I wish it worked for you. They are heavier than clover. It would be ideal if Clover did metal hooks in larger sizes. 😁

I got a 7 mm. I'm not giving up on it yet. It's different, feels different, but the yarn does glide across the hook!

Question, did you just stitch the cactus to the dirt? I've been working on cactus too, just for a change but I was following a tutorial on you tube and putting them in a tiny clay pot, using worsted yarn but I also like the look of the ones you are making but not sure how to connect the cactus to the dirt.

[@KnottingHookCrochet]

Yep I just sewed them on.

[@craftysue519]

Gee you got a whole herd of cows going there and soon you will need a greenhouse for your cacti! They love the heat so they should do well in Florida😂 Got my yarn from Premier in today. Definitely must have changed manufacturers, it’s not the soft and cuddly yarn we all love. So disappointed!
