How Much Can I Knit & Crochet in a Week? | Vlog

[@thethriftyfawn]

Watching and listening to these videos seriously feels like stopping by to visit a good friend you haven't seen for a week, hearing all about what they've been up to (movies, music, food, workouts), and sitting with them as they crochet and show you their progress. Seriously, unsurpassed VIBES here, real and genuine, along with calm, comfort, and happiness 🩷

[@ikoxun]

you’re too sweet beloved 🥺🥺🥺🥺

[@Kaxillio]

This is exactly how I feel like watching her videos ❤

[@ilovetocrochet-hk1mb]

100% agreed👍🏻

[@huaiscrblol5077]

idk how else to explain it, but your videos are soooo cozy. I feel like I'm sitting down wrapped up in a nice crocheted blanket every time.

[@StrawberrySweetart]

I can't believe that blanket took you so little time 😭 but like you said it's different when you're not working a "typical" 9-5, but i still think it was super speed HAHA! they all look so good. I'm very excited to see the redo of the kiara top!!

[@kanjifaith6619]

Sometimes I have to remind myself that I knit and crochet for fun and relaxation too because I want to get things done and move on. I have so many different projects I work on at once for that reason. When one gets stressful, I move on to something else for a while.

[@MandalaBunnyhome]

I get so excited when you post 😂💕 Edit: 10:10 ngl I envy your time, I used to have so much free time to knit and crochet but now I work 9-6 everyday and hardly have any time. My advice to anyone in my situation- look specifically for quick projects to keep you motivated and have 1 long project you can do off and on. Nothing wrong with taking your time and enjoying the process :)

[@nicolezarroc6261]

I felt that Hispanic judgement with the "Mija, its only August"! My family is the same way :) You do you, keep up the fantastic work!

[@okami7amaterasu]

hey i really love u saying its not about ur working speed but how much time u have; social media sets unattainable standards for crafts sometimes.

[@darkdest6664]

i have ASD and mentally break down every time i try and get a "real" job. I do take crochet very seriously even if i dont make money from it. I dont get disability bec im not "disabled" enough in the eyes of the government unfortunatly. Thats what woman with ASD tend to deal with... I never feel offended by others who can work it. Never be sorry for being yourself. You always seem so humble and you make so many impressive peices of art. ❤ Also im a goth whose birthday is in Aug. So its AUGTOBER 😂😂😂

[@ikoxun]

I'm sorry you don't get disability -- that's exactly what my brother is going through right now and it's quite frustrating 🥲 and yessss we love augtober!! :D

[@SparklingGlitterCookie]

Fellow autistic woman here. I relate to all of that lol

[@sabrinakaze6480]

You are amazing. I do 35-40 hour work weeks and can only crochet on my days off to unwind and relax and have to use vacation to yarn bust my collection. Getting inspired by your cozy videos helps alot

[@WanderingInNaturesBeauty]

So glad I’m early 🎉 you inspired me to start crocheting. Keep up the great work

[@asulisa9312]

ugh actually i hate when you listen to an audiobook and you just know you can't fully appreciate it without reading it! ur iconic iko keep it up

[@miraswan672]

your videos are so peaceful, I love listening to them while I do other things!

[@julia_hlcz]

I always love your videos, they’re so cozy and chill to watch and they’re my favourite to watch during crocheting 🫶🏼 also the vlog style of the video is really cool - it’s so calming to hear you talk about music, series or other stuff.

[@moda78z]

Björk?! Homogenic is one of my favorite albums ever! 😍❤️ I still have the CD I bought when it came out. Yeah, I’m old (46) 🤣😂

[@thethriftyfawn]

Nah! Chronological age has nothing to do with physiological age! You're not old for either of them, and your physiological age is certainly bright and vibrant! 😊

[@ikoxun]

i finally listened to it! i think my fav is Joga but omgggg the whole album was so good!

[@ilovetocrochet-hk1mb]

Omg i love yr vlog videos I’ve been watching you for a year now and you’ve inspired me sooo much in my crochet journey and I’m learning to knit bc you’ve inspired me and I loved the blanket the sun and moon keep going never stop yr absolutely amazing 💗

[@cadencel827]

it’s always a good day when ikoxun uploads🤭💗

[@babyjki444]

i love ur vlog-ish style videos, this is such a win for me.

[@lorrainehendry7892]

I only found your channel a few months ago and I love watching you xx your voice is so soothing you always make me feel relaxed ❤

[@QueenofmyPlantpot]

I am watching this while crocheting my first 6 day star blanket. I really like your voice and the way you talk 😊. So thank you for keeping me entertained.

[@dasolaj9572]

I can never not be early for a ikoxun video, love you and your work girl!❤️💖

[@CrochetbyVirtue]

Been waiting for another video 😢 It's finally here 🎉🎉

[@TREELAND28195r]

you are so good. troughout the entire video in every project that you did i was like. wow. i couldnt finish this in an entire month let alone 2 days😭

[@Lea-om5jk]

Im pretty sure 80% of the people watching these videos are watching them while crafting something themselves. I literally love watching other people crochet whilst crocheting it gives me motivation somehow😭😭😭

[@esmewarmuth8780]

lolll your calling the New York shirt a spiderman shirt cracked me up bc those are everywhere in NYC, I didn't realize those were thought of as a spiderman thing outside of New York. I also love making curated playlists, it's so fun! & it makes me happy when people like them on spotify. & the projects you made were so cool! I love setting crochet goals for myself, especially if I have a few days off, it feels so good to dedicate a few days to a project and then finish it within that time.

[@ikoxun]

hahaha i went to new york i think two years ago and saw those "we are happy to serve you" cups and got way too excited to get my hands on one lmao & ooo send me the link to your playlists! I LOVE listening to other people's playlists 🥺

[@camillereadss]

i love this is how tomorrow moves it’s so good! i’m gonna see bea in a few weeks im so excited

[@ikoxun]

you’re going to a lot of concerts hahaha i hope you have fun :)

[@camillereadss]

@@ikoxun i am!! i’m so lucky- haven’t seen any this year except for these past couple weeks, everyone loves fall i guess

[@ikoxun]

@@camillereadss haha yeah fall time gets a lot of concerts. I wanted to see Clairo but it was out of budget but maybe next time 🥺

[@camillereadss]

@@ikoxun she’s playing near me too but it’s so expensive, right?? i need to get into more underground artists so i don’t have to pay >$50 for any concert

[@DesGaming-qp8ir]

Love d headband and d cardigan, so amazing how u did dis so fast

[@hysteric-and-hysterical]

5 is a major accomplishment! They look great!

[@teschiosauro]

love the persona 5 transitions!!!

[@Pickles6115]

Thanks!

[@ikoxun]

thank you so much ! 🥺

[@Ateliê_Marques]

Uhuuuu video novo da Ikoxun 🎉. Quase pulei de felicidade quando vi 😂😂😂 como sempre, amando seu vídeo

[@coffee_angel511]

Now I also wanna try this out, once I start school :D, it'd be a fun way to keep me pre-occupied

[@skygoose4142]

I LOVE THE PERSONA 5 CUTSCENE THINGGG

[@mauraccc6491]

you can use the mug cozy for a coffee to go or other drink, because it will keep your hands a bit warm when you have a cold drink and it will prevent your hands from burning with a warm drink

[@ikoxun]

yesss, that's a good idea to keep the cozy with me for to go drinks :)

[@xhorrork1tty.]

Yess i love making music playlist and poems about characters i like or even ocs

[@teacherlovesbeauty]

You literally have my dream job!❤

[@annikawallner765]

Aaaaaahhhhhh I love youre vlogs ❤❤❤❤ weekly vlogs would be so nice!!! I also would love to know about your planning and Tipps for Productivity.

[@NunofUrbeeznis]

You could use the mug cover for the glas and put your pencils, brushes or needles/hocks in for display❤❤❤❤

[@sarafreitas6988]

I'm very impressed by your speed, if I did a blanket in two days my hand would fall off. So cool to see some people can be very fast. :o

[@olt4life._.]

you already said it, you can crochet all day, but I still want to point out you’re a fast crocheter 😭 i’m currently making the harry styles inspired cardigan, and it’s been 3 weeks 😂 i do work a 9-6, but it takes me 20-30 minutes to finish a 4”X 4” square 😂 (i’m a beginner who learnt crochet by watching YT videos).

[@camillereadss]

your dedication is so admirable! i’m making a project for a concert tomorrow wish me luckkkk

[@ikoxun]

omg how did the project come out & how was the concert??

[@camillereadss]

@@ikoxun it came out great! i got to meet the artist after and she complimented it 2 times 🥹🥹 (liana flores)

[@ikoxun]

@@camillereadss omggggg you're so lucky! I just know her concert was so beautiful 🥺 i love her music

[@camillereadss]

@@ikoxun it was so nice! highly recommend going to see her if you ever have the opportunity. glad to find another fan! 💕

[@_maqw_5989]

Whenever I TRY to crochet I always put your videos on because it feels like I'm learning from you. Seriously, when I started watching you I improved a lot. I'm so glad I found your channel

[@paigedunne7905]

I looovve hearing all the “my boyfriend, my boyfriend , my boyfriend” stuff, it feels like watching your long distance friend fall more in love over FaceTime

[@MollyPatricia5]

Such a cute cozy video! I totally get that disappointment with projects that take a while but you finished so many and they were all very good! Well done 🎉

[@jujuneccie]

I'm a super fan and I love what you do and your passion shows through. I'm a silent watcher but I think I'm gonna comment more because your awesome ❤

[@peglamphier4745]

I crocheted most of today and got 1.5 sweater sleeves done. Granted its sock weight yarn.....but still. And my hand hurts. Good thing tomorrow is a teaching day. A whole week is a lot of work...color me impressed with your fortitude.

[@ikoxun]

omg with sock yarn??? that's a huge accomplishment. definitely let your hands rest !

[@huniwater]

Another great video 😊 I keep saying this!! Slow down. The project isn’t going anywhere but you are. Crochet takes time for a reason

[@PandaEngene-vf4xj]

Early🎉 glad to see you

[@SSchloe0321]

Love love LOVED this video and everything that was made!!! Thank you 😊❤

[@rosemaryiwuanyanwu1871]

I just saw Beetlejuice this past weekend and as soon as Jenna Ortega’s character came on screen in that distressed knit dress, I immediately thought of you. Would LOVE to see you recreate that dress!

[@ChantelleArts]

I've been doing challenges like this on my channel and it's been a lot of fun so I've loved seeing you do this too 🥰

[@user-uy1oe3vr2l]

Watching you from Japan 🇯🇵 I really love your works ❤❤❤

[@lindasakseide282]

The headband and the mug-cover are really beautiful 😀

[@blufaerie]

You make me want to pick my hook up again… Instead, I’ll revel in the fact that you enjoy yarn arts! ❤

[@misssunflower2599]

i love crocheting while listening to your videos :)

[@tarhabrown8038]

Hello friend!! So great to hear from you today 🥰 I hope your week is going amazing, your projects are always so beautiful. Thank you for spending time with us 🥰

[@ikoxun]

thank you!! I hope you're week is going great as well

[@atate43]

I love your projects and the Totoro hoodie you have!!

[@hades_head_empty]

3:58 where can i find the patterns you used for these squares?

[@grandmastatus]

Me: working on the same blanket since 2018 IKOXUN: one blanket in one week

[@ShdonnaBolden]

Anyone who is very good with crocheting and really knows how to use the right crocheting hook while they are crocheting can crochet up so very lovely and very beautiful items and projects

[@zohahassan6785]

I’m so interested in your playlists!! You should consider making them public or sharing them :))

[@moonsoul754]

Ohhh my days Ur such an inspiration 🥹

[@CoolAnagram]

Genuinely!

[@thislittleghost]

Maybe its random, but I just noticed you are also doing growingannanas workouts 🤩

[@ikoxun]

yes!! her workouts are the only ones on youtube that actually challenge me and give me results 🥺

[@Shettikkawoodscrocheting-dk4qz]

Blessings 💞🙏🏾 and crocheting 👋🏾🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶

[@megancanflyy123]

would you consider doing some livestream/ coworker type videos? like with less cuts, longer videos? i work from home and spend most of my solo free time knitting and crocheting and i run out of things to watch and listen to. i love your videos and i like listening and watching along to the music and movies you watch! it would be fun to listen to a chill livestream with minimal chatting while i work. i get really lonely because my job doesn’t require me to talk to anyone, and i find your content very easy and calming to watch while im doing other things.

[@jujujensen]

I was already impressed but the fact that you got as much you did off the hook/needles was crazy! I also like to put on stuff that I have watched a lot on while I knit. Ghost Whisperer is my go to right now. I also listen to audio books, currently listening to The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna.

[@ikoxun]

omg i've been wanting to read that book! how is it so far?

[@zyryiah]

this made me want to rewatch ghost whisperer again 😭

[@jujujensen]

@@ikoxun I'm only on chapter 13. I'm enjoying it. Listening to it via audio book and i like the narrator.

[@jujujensen]

@@zyryiah I like the ghost of the week format. Didnt care for the Sam story line tho. Just personal preference.

[@laurano5385]

i love ur vibe so much

[@pearl_b]

Omg the blanket 🤩 but ya I work a 8-5 job and I mostly get to crochet on the weekends . I take so long to finish things 😅

[@jamyjewelify]

10:33 I am so grateful for this comment! I always feel slow and like I'm never going to finish. I need to enjoy the process🥰❤️💕

[@Shettikkawoodscrocheting-dk4qz]

Your braids are so cute 🥰🥰🥰

[@ikoxun]

thank you! :)

[@NunofUrbeeznis]

You could do a Tangled Rapunzel themed project with these granny squares from the beginning if you ever wanna do an episode of "recreate" with something from Disney❤❤❤❤

[@lindasakseide282]

Yeah, - and the blanket, - LOVE the colors..,.

[@Allthingshamster]

Making playlists to fit specific scenarios/vibes/characters is so fun! But, my music taste is fairly small since I enjoy hyperfixating on only a few particular albums or bands at a time. And that makes it hard to collect music into a themed playlist.

[@diputston]

From kuromi singing "WOP WOP WOP WOP"​to this lol

[@loveharmony1793]

16:48 that sounds like something my best friend would say to me 20:44 slay it queen get some rest

[@lumewarm]

Premier yarns has a free pattern for the hexagon button up shirt

[@ikoxun]

ooo thanks for letting me know :)

[@alogg1360]

I love the celestial blanket

[@cindywilliams4960]

You did great I am a big fan of you. You are very Talented! 😊

[@Theinkbunnie]

my favorite spiderman film!!!

[@River8_arts]

Girl, you are incredible!!! Will you be finishing the sweater? Also the Apple bag? I'd love to see those. You are amazing! Oh! Also, the new Beetlejuice movie came out. Have you seen the striped sweater dress that the young character wears? I bet you could make it! 🎉❤❤❤

[@Thecreativegaliv]

ikoxun i have a video request can you i close harry potter stuff in your crochet or knit episode? i feel like a scarf wipl be really easy and you can pick the houses colors

[@Jessd85]

I really enjoy your videos!

[@LeDouxCrochet]

Uau eu acho que você foi incrível!! E você está certíssima, não devemos nos cobrar tanto, afinal, é um hobby para relaxar... Eu sou do Brasil aqui tem muitas meninas que fazem crochê e nós aqui vendemos muito também... Já me desafiei a fazer tapetes pequenos para portas, consegui fazer 4 em um dia... Fiquei muito feliz mas cansada também 😅

[@-ZombieFruit-]

What patterns did you use for the blanket?

[@e.scrochet]

the not weaving in ends and calling the project done is so crochet math🤣🤣🤣

[@pikkupinja]

omg for a minute i thought you had an Iittala glass but i think it's just a similar design, loving your videos from Finland!

[@ikoxun]

ooo I just looked up the littala glass and it's sooo pretty!

[@II_Emilia_II]

22:03 and by "hand warmer" do you mean glove?

[@lillianlillian]

i have playlists for some of my original characters 😭 because i too love making playlists hahaa

[@ikoxun]

i think that's so cool! & since they're your og characters, I think it's cool to see how their personalities blend with the music they listen to 🥺

[@figursk8inprincess]

Hi , thank you! ❤️ Love videos like this!!

[@moveoutproductions1835]

Yo my gf loves your videos. Keep the good work 👍

[@KerrisaGuyton-e6z]

It looks great 😊

[@debdobalina1]

Where can I get the pattern for the star and moon blanket?

[@milli6529]

Which tutorial or pattern did you use for the granny squares? I would love to make this blanket too

[@BeataKita]

Finishing 5 and half pieces of work in a week, and calling it a slow hobby, meanwhile me with my cross-embroidery pieces.... Anyway, i love the blanket! And i don't know if i jjust skipped it omewhere, cause it's late, but i don't have energy to rewach it, so i'm just gonna ask: you figured the pattern yourself? How? Could you like... walk us throu your mind proces, like what does your mind focused on while on it, what did you saw in the blanket picture that guided you onto how to do the pieces?

[@xdkjagy]

can you make a tutorial for the sweater?

[@PrincessOfSpace42]

Woah how fast are you crocheting!! But then again i always use really small yarn that would need like 3x the amout of time + i work and like to go out so i drop all my project not even half into them. My toxic trait is thinking over and over again i can finish a sweater with like sockyarn or something 💀💀

[@ikoxun]

hahaha even though it'll take forever, I think a sockyarn sweater would actually look incredibly beautiful because the stitches are so small.

[@Yokopalu]

Making a blanket in three days is so insane! How do you do it I would get so bored so quickly!

[@ikoxun]

the movies helped A LOT. I have to have something playing in the background or I just won't crochet at all lol

[@lillyperez1594]

I would LOVE to hear your playlists if you wanted to post them!!

[@ikoxun]

I have all my playlists here

[@Lady_dromeda]

Honestly, i dont make playlists, i just listen to full albums 😅 I have wanted to make them but i just never get around to it

[@tinotenda8564]

Do you think it would have been better to plan your projects with the ones that is faster and quicker to finish than the projects that take longer to finish towards the last of the list? Also AWESOME ARTWORK! I enjoy watching you while I crochet! Currently I am working on a hamper bag for my mom lol

[@ikoxun]

I feel like I def would've been able to get more done that way honestly 😅 good luck with your hamper bag!

[@tinalin7180]

Love it❤
