[@Rizzy.Lizzyz]

Every time I start a tapestry, I cry a little bit. You are insanely talented.

[@BlondieKnots]

I cried alittle bit too each time 😉😂😂

[@Mynameis_lizzy]

@@BlondieKnotsyour still amazingly talented no matter what you crochet ❤ I personally like to make amigurumi animals (but I’m making a granny square blanket at the moment haha for a bit of a difference) and my friends are still very impressed so to see what you do is outstanding I’m so impressed with your skills and your amazing 😊 please don’t let anyone else say otherwise 🙏

[@AtlasAurum-]

for the flower tapestry: at first i agreed that the colors felt a little off, but with the multicolor tassels at the bottom the whole piece feels really tied together!!! good call :) (also the panther is GORGEOUS!!! it came out so well and it's HUGE!!!! it would take me a week just to make that one haha)

[@BlondieKnots]

YAY! thank you so much! It helps to know other people like what I did with that!!

[@uncannycory1565]

for the wildflower tapestry, I think the colors have a very retro hippie feel that makes it super cute! i think at first the colors probably just seemed off in comparison because the blues gave the original color palette a very different vibe than the green bright pastels

[@codycrochets]

I don’t know how you find the motivation to finish so many in one week! You are super human!! Side note I LOVE the multicolor fringe on the crochet or cry tapestry it really makes the colors pop. Thank you for your continued support; to be mentioned in a video with designers like Lakza and Crochet or Cry is INSANE 💕

[@BlondieKnots]

Ahhhhhh love ya!!! Sooo happy to support each and every one of you beautiful people!!!🫶🏻🫶🏻

[@tamiruiz2766]

Your tapestry crochet videos peaked my interest and I’m now addicted. I’ve made 5 in the past 3 weeks along with a graphite drawing. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@BlondieKnots]

You’re kidding?! I’m obsessed!! Omg so happy to hear that and so glad you’re loving them! That’s incredible 😍

[@xtcharmed]

the mermaid OMMGGG i need to make that! when i get a couple more tapestries under my belt i will be doing that! props to you for doing all those tapestries you are awesome!!!

[@BlondieKnots]

You do!! She’s so gorg!! Thank you so much! Im so excited for you to get to a place where you’re ready to give her a try! You’re awesome too friend!!

[@bethferguson705]

It's hard to choose but I love the flowers & tassels the best. But all are amazing. Awesome work Dana💚

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you so much my sweet friend!! 🥰❤ Youre so wonderful

[@meganlaynecrafts]

You are so talented and capable of crocheting so fast! Thank you for sharing your work! ❤

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank YOU for watching! I’m so glad you enjoyed!

[@shaniquebrown6623]

They all look amazing. My favorite would be the mermaid and the panther

[@BlondieKnots]

I’m so glad you like them all! I agree those two are breathtaking

[@TheGingerRat]

I love your videos Dana! I am working on a granny square cardigan jacket thing, but school starts in a week and my little cousins have to stay with me all week, so im gonna hope i get it done! 🤞🫶❤🥲 you, kamryn cain, and pasioknit kelsie are the only crochet-tubers i watch, your videos are so entertaining! Also, what I do to help stop cramping in my hands when I hyperfocus on crochet, is I will alternate the way I hold my yarn, so I will hold the yarn between my index and middle finger, and then when my hand starts cramping I will change how I hold my yarn, I usually wrap my yarn around my pinky or something like that. Might help, might not. Idk but it works for me!

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you so much my friend!! 🥰❤ Im so glad you enjoy my content! I hope you get it done too! Im rooting for you! Also yes!!! I do as well do that and it helps an immense amount! It crazy how much doing that can help!!

[@michellem372]

I think they are all gorgeous, but the flower one is my favorite. I know that the color choices weren't your first choice, but the multicolored tassels at the bottom really sealed that whole piece. It is beautiful!

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh thank you so much! It’s so nice to hear you think that! I think the tassels helped a lot too! But I’m so glad you liked them all 😊❤

[@lindacole3399]

My favorite was the flowers.

[@catherinefeuer7642]

i think the Panther is my favortie. all of them are amazing in their own little way.

[@BlondieKnots]

You can do it! I just know it 🥰

[@Mandas_Life]

One of my first big project was Crochet Tapestry I made a blanket I actually didn't/don't know how to read patterns and I was able to do Crochet Tapestry easier. Love the mermaid.

[@BlondieKnots]

My tutorial should help with all the questions you might have! The playing card is a great start of you’re interested! Or would recommend sticking with a 2 color pattern at first!

[@_karlavane_]

The Panther is stunning, you’re insanely talented!

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you so much!

[@Dorkyshelbs]

How can you choose a favorite?!? I have this huge blank wall in my house and you are really inspiring a tapestry wall. Make sure to have a spa night to rest your hands! Wonderful work as always ❤

[@BlondieKnots]

I couldn’t agree more!! They are all so beautiful!! I’d love to inspire you to make some for your wall! You’ll have to let me know if you do! ❤ and that’s a wonderful idea, I’ll let my husband know I’m in NEEDD of a spa night… possibly full day 😂

[@barbaramcmahon3956]

Holly Molly, beautiful work.

[@JessRodriguez1111]

They all turned out amazing, you’re so good at tapestry crochet 💗 I’m definitely making the mermaid one at some point! I’d love to frame it and hang it up, I hope it doesn’t cost too much 😅

[@mannameeves4423]

SO impressive!! Wishing your wrists a happy recovery lol

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you so much my friend!! 🥰❤ I need it! lol

[@lisahybarger8089]

I love the wildflowers!

[@reneeriley6629]

WOW good for you! Love the flower!

[@hookedoncece]

I’ve started so many tapestries and I’ve finished zero 😂😅 if only i had your drive for it. So stunning ❤

[@BlondieKnots]

That’s okay I get it! I have plenty of those too trust me😂 these videos just help me stay on track! But thank you 😊❤

[@exploralaura92]

I love them all so much! Amazing work

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you!

[@keycaru]

I love the flower tapestry, the blue color you used looks like glass. So it looks like a marble or the flowers are in a lil terrarium or something. I also love the different colored tassels, it really tied it together in the end!

[@BlondieKnots]

Ohhh love that perspective on it! Gave me a whole new view on it and I love that! Thank you!!❤

[@krissi_kreations]

The tapestry QUEEN 👸 ❤

[@BlondieKnots]

🫶🏻🥹❤️

[@Okihenlo]

These all look beautiful!!! This was an amazing video- but I was worried about you! Definitely put your health first ❤ my favorite for sure was the fish. I’m gonna have to make one!!!

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you friend!! Don’t worry, I took a few days off to recoup after this!❤️

[@sisabell]

So amazing! I just started some tapestry myself, but from an alpha pattern. I felt like it worked up kind of weird, so I started over with all sorts of alterations to make some of the color changes smoother. I'll have to try from an actual pattern sometime to see if it works up easier!

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you Spencer! Definitely try a "real" proper tapestry pattern! I promise its sooo much easier! Ive used alot of alpha graphs and have messed up alot of times doing so! So i totally get it!

[@sisabell]

@@BlondieKnots Yeah I'll definitely try an actual pattern next! Your video for tapestry crochet has been sooo helpful too!

[@jenbrooke403]

47,000! 😱 Way to go! I think my favorite is the wildflower, but they are all stunning! You’ve inspired me to pull the tapestry I’ve been working on back out. Thanks for sharing, Dana! Have a great week. ❤

[@BlondieKnots]

Yayyy! I’m so glad I could inspire you to pick it back up! You’ll have to update me how it goes!!❤ thanks for stopping by and commenting! I’m so happy to have you here! Have a great week friend 😊❤

[@jacqtubing]

All of your work is wonderful! I really like the panther. Bravo on all the work you have done!!!🎉🎉

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you so much!! 😊❤❤

[@carlyvoell7857]

I think the mermaid is my favorite. I can’t believe you got those 2 big ones done so quick 😆 amazing! I definitely want to make the flower one, she is so cute 🙌🏼

[@BlondieKnots]

I really can’t believe it either😂 thank you so much!! I would HIGHLY recommend the flower one. She’s dreamyyyy

[@shirleychase170]

Super!!!! Loved them all.

[@BlondieKnots]

Yay!! I’m so glad!

[@Helena-tw7pj]

Crochet tapestry is new to me. I have been crocheting clothes, a bag, curtains, pillow cases and towels never tapestry or amigurami. My favorite is the salty fish.

[@BlondieKnots]

It’s a really fun different form! And yes the fish is soooo cute 🐟 🤍

[@christagregg9363]

This is the first video I’ve watched with your new set up! Background looks great😊

Oh yay! Well welcome back and welcome to the new set up! Soooo glad you like it!!🥰

[@conniepeereboom8640]

[@Margot_Lazarus]

Wow super impressive! I have to say about the tassels I love that you varied the colors!

Oh I’m so glad you like what I did! Thank you, I needed some input from someone else 🫶🏻

[@teetaloo]

[@habeybaby77]

Oh wow I'm so inspired to try tapestry crochet now! All the pieces came out beautiful my the salty fish one is my fave, loving those colors together!😍🐟

Yes!!! That’s wonderful! I’m so glad I could inspire you!! The salty fish is just sooooo cute!! I agree!🐟🤍🥰

[@grannyarkue9199]

Yes!!! It makes wonderful wall art!!

You are DEDICATED

[@BlondieKnots]

To a fault sometimes 😂

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you! And oh trust me. I will be 😂😂

[@soniaansford82]

Not all are to my taste, but wow. Well done

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you so much my friend!! 🥰❤

[@allycantspell8111]

they all turned out so great! If u arent sure where you want to display the fish one I think it would look rlly silly in a kitchen!

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you!! And oh yes sooo true! That would be cuteeeeeee 🐟

[@pamelarobinson1379]

Thumbs up!! You are so good at this. My favorite is the pretty blue fish tapestry :)

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you so much!! And yes that one is soooo cute! 🐟🤍

[@chaoticleric]

All of these pieces look incredible!! I’m so tempted to try tapestry crochet because of you, but i’m also so nervous that i won’t stick with it 😂 I agree that the wildflower pattern is super cute but the color palette is not what I expected! I honestly think the sage green is the only thing throwing it off, but it’s still very cute!! I still think it’s my favorite (i love florals) Stunning work as always and I can’t wait to see what else you do! Also, I hope your unpacking and settling in is still going well!!

[@BlondieKnots]

Thank you so much!! You can always try it and if you don’t stick with it oh well!! But you also might! You never know until you try! I think you’re right about the sage, good point!! And thank you, I am getting settled in! I appreciate you asking 😊❤

[@ellsak]

Love the mermaid !

[@joaniefarrell1107]

Beautiful!

My hands and wrists hurt FOR you! These are stunnin' though! And love the lil Finn cameo! They've always gotta walk across our projects don't they hahaha

Do you use a program for counting your rows/stitches? LOVE your work :)

[@taber20107]

Where did you get the toad pattern?!

[@TammyHofer]

What kind of crochet hooks do you use? I’m starting to struggle with the end of my crochet hook handle rubbing against my hand when I’m doing long stretches of crocheting, and it’s really bothering me. Your hooks look nice and long and comfy in your hand!

[@BlondieKnots]

They are sooooo long! But it’s because I add a Susan bates comfort grip. I get them at Joann’s. It’s a 2 pack for $5 and I just don’t put them on all the way so it’s comfy and extends the length of my hook as well. It’s so helpful I would highly recommend

[@TammyHofer]

Amazing, thank you!! ❤️

[@LindsayBurneka]

Love all your crocheted items, but I saw a vacuum in the back of your video and I wanted to know which vacuum you use and if it’s cordless

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh my gosh so funny you’d ask! I could make an entire video about my vacuum! 😂 I have a Dyson v15! It is cordless and I will tell you. It’s absolutely incredible! Especially if you have wood/ tile flooring

[@LindsayBurneka]

@@BlondieKnots thank you so much for the information trying to figure it out because I don’t like corded vacuums

@@BlondieKnots is it worth the price?

Girl you are so skilled!!!! I want to try tapestry crochet but the idea of all the colour changing 🤮
