I love that you are natural. You shouldn't have to apologize for life noises and your bed. That is just life. I would rather watch you just being you than trying to be something or someone you are not. You talk to us like you are talking to a friend. That is honestly how you put people at ease, and they continue to watch. God bless you, your husband and your babies.

Nice! I made 2 of these blankets last year for my grandkids. Tip: place an empty tote on the floor or your table to hold the skeins your going to use to make your cakes. If your lucky enough to get a center pull on the skeins, just prop them upright in a small basket and you can buzz right through faster. Good job!!

@@kristencrochets you’re welcome. You inspired me. I went through my drawers last night and pulled all my smaller amounts of saved yarn, and ended up with 7 big cakes. And I didn’t sleep well last night, so I was up and got 6 rows done on my full size blanket. It looks good. All half double crochet. So thanks for the inspiration!!👍😇

You did a great job! I think it just makes you more relatable, because I would assume most people don't have a fancy setup (myself included). As long as you love what you're doing, it will show through the video. Also, the colors you chose were so pretty together!

You did just fine! Tip: tension has a lot to do with the wonkiness of the cake. Tighten it up a bit. Also I use a hook to pull the outside ends toward the middle of the cake. Hope that's helpful.
