That blouse is so so so so cute! I love everything about this episode!

[@nancymorales2741]

Love all your crochet, Deborah! Thanks for sharing. Hugs from Deep South Texas. ❤

Love my retro rewind and can't wait to get my July postcard minis in a couple weeks.

[@patriciahealey9700]

I have made the Celeste Young pattern. I always finish with a reverse single crochet to have the points lay flat. I enjoy your podcasts very much. Thank you.

[@estadean]

yay - crochet! Lovely episode, and great to see all the yummy yarns in your shop. Hope you have a good week x

[@candyshoppeyarns]

Thank you! You too!

Great episode! I started working on a crossbody bag while watching! Take it easy and take care of yourself-my SIL died of complications from Lyme disease last year-that disease is no joke. You’ve got this!

[@candyshoppeyarns]

Thank you so much for your comment. It has me in tears because 1- how horribly tragic that our SIL passed away, I'm so very sorry. 2- it is very validating to have someone who understands just how serious and difficult Lyme Disease is. I typically get the casual brush off like it's not that big of a deal. Thank you for the encouragement!

Ok, now I’m considering making a star blanket with the very beautiful Caron cakes you gave me for Christmas!!! Love seeing your beautiful projects and shop updates. So inspiring! And. And wait to see your granny square cardigan!!! I want one of this too. (Maybe)

[@saltcityknits]

I was just thinking the same thing about the matching cakes I bought.

Thank you Deborah for a beautiful episode, I love all your makes and your yarn is always stunning! Wow, those Crossbody purses came out so good. I seem to be in a Crochet mood myself, I’m current making my first granny square blanket for my daughter. I love making granny squares but connecting them is a different ballgame. I also, recently had to go down to size 0 for my socks, because of my loose gauge. Last year, I tried to replace my heel flap and gusset heel for the shadow wrap heel but unfortunately, it did not fit my foot as well, so it’s back to the dreaded gusset 😢 I hope your Lyme disease heals quickly and that you regain your health. ❤

[@candyshoppeyarns]

I didn't mind connecting the granny squares when making the bags, but there are only four so that's why. That's also very interesting that you also went down to a size 0 needle, AND you switched to a shadow wrap short row heel. Fingers crossed they fit me. I'm sorry they didn't work for you.

The parcel has arrived, Yay! 🎉 I'm so glad you like all the colours, I had such fun wrapping it all up for you (although I did get chocolate cravings afterwards 🤔😄). I love the different colour combinations you chose for each of your wonderful crossbody bags. The plastic chain is very cute. I've added a crossbody bag to my list! Your idea to make the granny square centre's yarn tail really secure raises a good point. My grandmother taught me to just leave the tail hanging 😨, yeah, that so does not go well. Just want to say how much I always enjoy the backgrounds you choose to record in front of ... sooooo yummy 🌈. And thank you for the mention Deborah 🥰💖 Enjoy that granny fun!

[@candyshoppeyarns]

Thank you so much for the encouragement!

[@jhuntsman17]

Deborah love your KZbin. Your granny square crossbody bags are adorable. How big did your make your granny squares? In think I might attempt to make a bag. Thanks Julie

[@candyshoppeyarns]

Hi Julie! I don't remember the measurement, but one of the bags I made with 6 rounds, and the rest with 7.
