Current Crochet WIPs 😳

[@StefTX]

It’s so adorable how you think you have a lot of WIP’s. You should see how many I have. It’s closer to 40 or possibly more. My oldest one is probably 12 to 14 years old and I still intend to finish it.

[@kristencrochets]

Lol I love it!

[@melissac3065]

Hi Kristen, well I counted and I have 16 WIPS🤯. I should not have looked😂. You have some really pretty items you are working on. Your blankets always impress me I love your colors choices. I love craft and a cuppa, so I really look forward to seeing your top when it is finished. Thank you for sharing scripture and your thoughts on it.

[@kristencrochets]

Hey Melissa! It's so easy to get over run with wips! Lol I just posted a video of the finished top! 🩷

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

I have a lot of wips! I wish you could come sit by me so I’m accountable to finish them! I enjoyed seeing your projects 😃

[@kristencrochets]

Maybe at some point we can meet halfway and actually crochet together!

[@medjinepaul1658]

Great verse… I have like 15 wips and feel guilty every time I start something new … the struggle is real 😂😂

[@kristencrochets]

It really is! Lol!

[@DebsArtsyLife]

Oh my goodness, girl! Your devotion and Bible reading at the end was fabulous! I believe you have the gift of teaching! Amazing job and such a blessing! Thank you!

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you so much!

[@daleannayoung9438]

Love the sweater that you are wearing ❤

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you Daleanna! 💜

[@slowcrochet]

That mustard-colored top is looking gorgeous so far! Perfect pattern for that yarn! I rarely start blankets because they take me so long to finish, but hats always help break up the bigger pieces! Love your heart!

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@pattimiller7914]

I have at least six WIPs, because starting is so much more fun than finishing!!! 😂😂 I don’t know why! I get bored easily and have to start something new just to keep my crojo flowing. Doesn’t stress me at all. Thanks for sharing yours; it’s always nice to be reminded I have company ❤

[@kristencrochets]

I totally agree! I love starting new projects! Lol

[@bethrobbins4733]

I don't even wanna count how many I have cause I know it's alot but my goal this year is to get at least one finished a month.

[@kristencrochets]

That's a great goal!

[@jayneholcomb4076]

Enjoyed your whips . I have 4. It does stress me out to have too many. I love you sharing your faith.

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you so much Jayne! ✝️💜

[@lyndamorstain4761]

I have 5 current WIPs & 4 in time out until I want to work on blankets again - probably Oct or Nov when it cools off in Ft Worth!

[@wifeoftim]

I watched a bunch of crochet channels and someone gave a shoutout to your channel. I try not to have too many wips because I get very overwhelmed. I'm going to smite the like and subscribe buttons. You have a new subscriber.

[@kristencrochets]

So glad you found my channel! Thanks for subscribing!

[@DebsArtsyLife]

You are so beautiful and so well-spoken. You look like you are probably close to my daughter's age. I love watching your videos! I have about twice as many wips as you! My favorite thing is a granny square, so a lot of my wips are just granny squares that I haven't decided what to turn into yet. There are so many projects I want to start! I love playing with yarn and combining the colors in different squares. I learned to knit last year, so now I've added knitted wips to all my crochet wips, and boy is that overwhelming! Knitting takes SO MUCH longer than crochet and I get bored with it and have to switch things up. I too have start-itis...BAD! This weekend though, since I am off Monday and have 3 whole days, I am giving myself permission to do whatever I want and PLAY with my yarn! I cannot wait! Finally a long weekend where I don't have the weight of that Fall Into Art festival on my shoulders weighing me down and stressing me out! Over a year of that, and all for nothing, but I am so glad it is over! (If you watch my video from 10/9/24, you can hear about that.) I literally stressed over that one day for over a year! Big lesson: I NEVER want to do it again! Keep up the amazing job you're doing!

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you so much Deb ❤️ That’s great that you have a long weekend to just relax and do what you love without any pressure! Enjoy!

[@shannonjones5324]

That mosaic blanket is going to be soooo gorgeous! I used MJ’s patter for a square throw pillow and didn’t think I would ever get done, so cannot imagine a blanket. It’s gonna be so worth it! I love your channel!

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you so much Shannon!

[@maryballard5952]

I don't have a big attention span. I have so many blankets I want to make. I start one until I get bored, or make a mistake. I set it aside and work on another. I do finish them. I just rotate my projects. It depends on my mood or if I'm watching TV or traveling what I work on. Currently, I have 12 started. I won't start another until I finish one or two.

[@kristencrochets]

I do the same thing!

[@EvieO1950]

I remember that beautiful mosaic blanket!! I tend to have 3 WIPs - 1 larger that requires focus usually knit, 1 smaller usually crochet and a pair of knit socks for out and about. And I have a year long Blanket of Knowledge knit project.

[@kristencrochets]

I'm glad you remember it 🥰 I love that you have a system of wips!

[@sandaramoore9660]

Thanks for sharing your wips!!! It was fun to see them!!! You have to remember that you have less time now that you are working outside of the home…so your crafting time is limited.!!! I have several wips!!! I have been actively working on them and can gladly say…getting them done!!! I have to finish 2 or 3 before I can start another one…it’s working. I just finished 2 summer wraps that were gifts, two summer tops and I just started another top today. I’m super close to completing a project tote bag made of daisy granny squares…just have to connect the squares and crochet the straps…scheduled to be completed this weekend!!! Thanks for the reminder to not just read or hear GOD’S word, but to be doers and share his word!!! Stay safe and be blessed ❤

[@kristencrochets]

I've been really into making summer tops lately as well! The daisy granny square bag sounds so cute! ❤️

[@CarolMaggart]

I like the black and multi as a scarf. That is pretty.

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you Carol!

[@Crochetedbymichi]

I am surrounded by 14 project bags 😂 that are actually going to get finished. 5 more that I will frog. 😆 it’s like every time I get new yarn I have to try it out right?!?! 😂 I remember your MJ blanket! The colorway is sooo pretty.

[@kristencrochets]

I feel the same way about new yarn! It's so hard for me to resist starting are projects like every day! Lol

[@wifeoftim]

And thank you for the verse in James. It such a timely verse for me.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@kristencrochets]

You're so welcome! It's a blessing to share God's Word on my channel ✝️💜

[@myissagcreations9729]

I have a bunch of wips too. Lol Thanks for sharing the scripture and the reminder with it.❤

[@kristencrochets]

You are so welcome!

[@bettyloumallet7081]

I’ve got tubs of WiPs ha ha!

[@susancoleman4833]

What a neat video 📹. I currently have 3 wips i am actively working on (this doesn't include all the abandon ones in the closet). You have inspired me to finish up these wips and go after some of the old projects. Your wips are beautiful, and i look forward to seeing your progress on them. May God bless you and your wonderful family ❤🙏Happy crocheting 🧶

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you so much Susan! 🥰

[@Oceangirl_505]

Looking at your WIPs and thinking of mine, I'm overwhelmed!

[@kristencrochets]

I totally understand that!

[@SusanRBruce6]

I have 8-10 wips, I'm trying to keep it down to 6. I make myself wait to start a new project till I've finished one. It's hard though when you see a cute project or get a new yarn & you get excited about it.

[@kristencrochets]

That's definitely something I should be doing! Lol

[@rosea9375]

I have around 7 wips that I need to finish, but there are so many more that i want to start too. It stresses me out as well.

[@kristencrochets]

Since I posted this video I have already started at least two more things! Lol

[@angelatalbert5114]

I have 5 wips and probably some in my closet. I have lost my crojo a bit, so it will be awhile before I finish all my projects.

[@kristencrochets]

I understand how that feels! Hope you get it back soon 💜

[@CarolMaggart]

Love the mosaic pillow case!

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you! 💜

[@meaganm77]

I *think* I have 4 wips…one is over a year old. I had more just a few weeks ago but I have been trying to finish up one then “allow” myself to start a new project, then finish a wip, repeat. lol.

[@kristencrochets]

That's a good idea and probably something I need to do as well! Lol

[@tamieneal2343]

I have 3 knit wips two are blankets and a mini crochet sweater ornament and a macrame plant hanger. I seem to start a bunch at once and do a few rows on each everyday except the crochet and plant hanger. I tend to ignore them lol

[@kristencrochets]

I love macrame but haven't done it in quite a while!

[@joyjoyjoyfolie]

Love all your wips!!! We have similar taste!! Love the mosaic crochet as well… i havent tried that pattern yet… kinda scares me!!

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you! 💜 You should try it! It's a lot of fun and not hard at all. It just requires a lot of focus! 😊

[@thatopalgirl]

My chase is filled with wips . My goal is to Finnish my wips this summer

[@kristencrochets]

Good luck finishing them!

[@kimmmy86]

I have 3 wips. But I only started crocheting 5 months ago. I have one wip that I’m trying to finish first as I have only a couple of rows left but it’s so hard to pick it up to finish it. Hopefully I’ll finish it off soon

[@kristencrochets]

I understand how that is! Sometimes, it's the projects we are so close to finishing that take the longest for some reason!

[@suzannebridges7334]

Kristen…I just found you…and enjoyed this,…but you need to hold your display item up, n’t on your lap, and when you do,..hold it still, please?…FYI, I have about 20 WIPS….and am persevering to finish,..but like you, I have Startitis also!…😊

[@kristencrochets]

So glad you found my channel Suzanne!

[@roxeyserckie5414]

Just finished today only one had going for a time. Reason: limited yarn stash now...reduced income so makes difficult to purchase yarn. Not sure when or what next. No project supply on hand

[@kristencrochets]

I understand that Roxey. I have some yarn that I'm getting rid of that I would love to send you if you want to email me at [e-mail] with your address :)

[@roxeyserckie5414]

You are so creative and diverse in your projects!

[@debbienewton909]

The mosaic crochet, could you stop there and use that for a rug??? It's beautiful!! I have about 6 WIPs right now, 5 blanket/afghan projects and 1 wearable. They all are slightly beyond my experience level and I'm getting frustrated. AMEN to God's Word ❤

[@kristencrochets]

Thank you! I understand the frustration I definitely have been there many times!
