[@robinrhodes8064]

That blanket is gorgeous, but oh my word that poncho is fabulous. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day.

[@fiberfunwitholivia]

Wow! You got some Noro yarn! 💕 That is a nice bag. I like the color combo in the spring evening pattern. And your poncho and blanket are beautiful! 😍

[@ShielaSoares]

I absolutely love the blanket and poncho...they are gorgeous! Looking forward to seeing the wrap🤗💗

[@heidicook2395]

This is lovely yarn. I've heard of Noro, Bag O Day gets it occasionally. It is expensive yarn. I look forward to seeing your poncho pattern. Living in Florida I doubt I'd ever make it for myself, but I have family and friends in Washington state who would enjoy a cute poncho. Thanks again Sheila! 😻💗😊

[@NanasCrochetIdeas]

I love that Noro color way! Tfs Sheila, until next time . . . . 🤗

[@Distinctivelyhandcrafted]

Hi Sheila! Your poncho is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing the kit.😍🤗

[@TheCrochetNurse]

You are so welcome

[@crochettimewithdonnaarsena2946]

Hello Sheila! Love the blanket and poncho! Great job! Noro is expensive yarn. Never used it before. I think the colors will look good together. Can't wait to see what you make! Thanks for sharing!

[@southerngirlhandmadeknit]

Can't wait to see how your item turns out. I'm 95% sure you'll change it up a bit to add interest like you often do! Thanks for sharing Sheila 😊❤

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Oh yes, I do not need another long scarf...lol. So it is going to be something different.

[@totolyozum]

Wow, those colors go beautifully with your hair color! I can’t wait to see the finished product on you next month. Your throw and shawl are gorgeous! I am just starting my very first corner to corner. I might have to watch several different tutorials to get it right. Take care and stay safe 👁❤️🧶

[@sylviamaxwell504]

Yes watch several,, that's how I finally figured out how to make it.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Thank you! You too!

[@maribelishooked4378]

Love the blanket and poncho.

[@lorelebeverland5585]

I got the same kit with a very bright multi colored Noro (color 6) . Beautiful but very bright in every color colors.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Bright can so hard to work with.

[@mistyfan69]

I love your baby blanket. I can't read patterns yet. I wish you had a tutorial for your poncho. It's beautiful.

[@eileenallen1986]

Thankyou for the review Sheila.

[@jodyfink1924]

Wanted to let everyone know. Joann's has regular Mandala cakes on line for 3.99. There's a 20% off coupon for online and picking up at store. Caron 1 pound on sale for 7.99. Can use coupon for that too. Love watching all your videos. You motivate me. Thanks and 🤗😇

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Thanks for sharing.

[@sylviamaxwell504]

Noro makes wonderful yarn!

[@TheCrochetNurse]

So true. I have started working with it and it is very nice stuff.

[@nicolehedley4831]

I actually just finished a baby blanket in that green. It’s really pretty. Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Nice

[@teddadoyle4909]

I got mine today and was waiting for your video... was so excited about the Noro! I've wanted to try this! Mine is a blue mix like the picture.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Oh how nice! I was torn, I really like the blue and browns.

[@madonnaballard3008]

HiYa Sheila!! Pretty yarns, Noro is a very high end yarn!

[@TheCrochetNurse]

It is some nice stuff. It is a nice pairing with the MM

[@mascrochetandothertopics4606]

I love your work by the way, 🥰

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Thank you! 😊

[@mascrochetandothertopics4606]

Yay!! I got my Mary Maxim crochet kit also, I got the blue yarn, can’t wait to work it up in the pattern, 😁 I know this my be a little late, but I’ve been stuck on the Bella Wrap for awhile now, if you could explain better row 15 for me or do a quick tutorial on it I would really appreciate it, I’m still learning how to read patterns, thanks in advance 😊

[@justdi3347]

Hi Sheila! I love that afghan you made, so pretty. The poncho is equally as pretty. All the colors are just beautiful. I love that Noro Yarn, I always see Crystal BOD, review this and one day I will purchase some. Not sure if you've seen her video where she discusses a yarn company in Washington State (Little Knits or something like that) and the prices are crazy good for many many of those expensive yarns which really makes them affordable. Anyhoo, I am looking forward to seeing that wrap, the colors are so pretty. Thank you so much.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

I will have to try to find that place. Little Knits. Crystal is always on the hunt for yarn. She is a power crocheter.

[@melsbookishera]

I stopped subscribing to MM CC - but I love watching your videos about it - since I do intend on picking it up again in the future :-). Thank you as always for such a thorough explanation of this month's package.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

I think many people stopped after the Nov Dec kits. I almost stopped as well. But in my mind I committed for 1 year, so I am sticking to it.

[@pattijones1452]

Noro is top of the line yarn, and quite expensive. Tfs this month's kit. If you are looking for very soft Mary M axim yarn try the Mellowspun yarn.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Oh for sure.

[@DebraWomack]

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with it. ❤️

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Me too!!

[@tammieingram4289]

hello crochet nurse, how are you today. love the kitty.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Hello back. I am doing well. Have a fabulous day!

[@SandyzSerious]

The peices you make are so pretty. I was excited when i saw your video was up.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Awwww, thank you.

[@lisahartmann7236]

Noro yarn can be very expensive. But is a lovely yarn to work with..

[@inannashu689]

I love the Noro yarn,I bought two more skeins from Webs for 9.99 each.There is no way I'm putting that Noro with an acrylic yarn-lol So I'm just going to make something with the Noro. I'm not keen on acrylics too much. Love,Love,love your poncho and the blanket is lovely.Thanks for the review.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

So far leaning toward not using the acrylic with the Noro.

[@dorcasfields6624]

I know the noro was pricey and I love Mary maxim yarn.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

It is pricey. I am happy to have it. This yarn is new to me. Nice quality stuff. Yes, I like MM yarn as well. So happy to get it.

[@rayroughley491]

In Canada it is 32 dollars.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Seriously!! They have a shop in Canada. Why so much?

[@BeeWOWdbyAprilLee]

I'm still trying to grasp the concept of the C2C pattern. For some reason I really struggle with it.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

Hey girl, good to see you. It is a huge amount of double crochet. I found because I made my own size I had to pay attention to the size as you wanted to strike a balance of using almost all of my yarn that I planned for it but did not want to run out with part of a corner missing.

[@HappyCraftyHomemaker]

👋👋👋

[@SandyzSerious]

I love the colors and I'm wondering what you'll do with it. I love the changes you make.

[@TheCrochetNurse]

You know I won't make that scarf. I have started the project three times. Now I moved on to making a rug and will go back to it. LOL

[@melissaotto7873]

I’m reading all these comments about how great Noro yarn is. Meanwhile I’ve been thinking it’s the worst yarn I’ve ever worked with 😂. I like the color I got which was super colorful, but it’s been terrible to work with. It’s fine once I get it into the pattern, but getting it there is a problem. Guess I don’t know what I’m talking about with though lol. Edited to add: I’ve never used it before. It’s possible I just got a weird under quality skein. Mine wasn’t as “fluffy” as that looks, so I’m guessing yours was spun better which most of my issues I think come from how it was spun. So willing to admit maybe I just got a sub par skein that doesn’t represent the norm. It happens.

[@bethanynatale2098]

did you hold two strands together to make the c2c blanlet

[@TheCrochetNurse]

For the Mandala yes, for the Just my stripes no.
