I subscribed because finally someone who enjoys crocheting and understands storage and setup. I am not into paper crafting, so watching their room organization videos leaves me flat.

[@therumimillcrochet]

I was the same, I love many of the ideas but so much of their tips don’t necessarily pertain to crochet. I hope this was helpful! ☺️💕

[@Ck12340]

I like your pig with glasses reading the cookbook. He is adorable. I can see why you needed him. Thanks for sharing.

[@therumimillcrochet]

I am so glad others also see the value in a pig that cooks and wears glasses. It wasn’t a wasted purchase. 🤣😂

[@manfasmakes-sam]

Wow you have a heavenly craft space 😍 I’m super jelly at how pretty and organised it is ❤

[@therumimillcrochet]

Oh thank you! Yes, it’s definitely my happy place😍

[@juliekoester7776]

I don’t use the medium of yarn in my craft, but I’m glad that I found this video because you’re very funny! You’re very relatable no matter what the medium is. Thanks for making and sharing this video. 🥰

[@therumimillcrochet]

Oh, thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed my video. I just did another room make over that is in that video list. Thank you for being here! 💖💖

[@lindadunham2964]

It is good to find like minded people on UTube.

[@therumimillcrochet]

Indeed! It’s always nice knowing we aren’t alone. ❤️🥰❤️

[@BluebonnetsandWhiskey]

I love it! What a blessing to have a whole room for your crafts. I love all the little mini yarn skeins. The minis always get me!

[@therumimillcrochet]

Thank you Kristen. 💗 Meeeee too! It’s like babies, you just want to squish them. 😍

[@theresesoderkvist5816]

You are so inspiring and your humour is right up my alley! 😂 the pig and the 👓. Now when I “found” your channel I need to se all videos, maybe multiple times. 🫣 you made me a stalker. But I live in Sweden so you are quite safe. 😉 keep up with what you’re doing!

[@therumimillcrochet]

Oh, what a great stalker to have!!! 💗I’m so glad I made you smile and when you go back in the videos, try to act like the first 3 or 4 were amazing, even though they were absolutely pit-a-ful!!!! I’ve only been doing this since June…so it took some work to get comfy with the whole camera and technology thing. But the last 3 videos….I’m finally acting like myself. Weird, quirky and saying the things that maybe others are smart enough to not to. 🤣😂🤣 Thank you so much for the sweet comment! 💗💗

[@theresesoderkvist5816]

⁠@@therumimillcrochet oh only since June, that’s even more impressive! I just need to shout out to the world to subscribe you. Please continue, forever end ever - it’s hilarious. I mean, can you ever have to much safety eyes, or containers, or black yarn - or amigurumi books? I also have a command post, with some bags of yarns close to it 😂😂😂 not crazy at all❤

[@therumimillcrochet]

@@theresesoderkvist5816 it’s like we are twins on different continents. 🤣 it’s so nice when others understand the plight and thank you for spreading the word. It’s hard to get traction because of the constant KZbin changes. Slowly but surely though….we will trudge through the black yarn and row counters to reach the beloved yarn stash in KZbin. 🤣😂🤣💗….I think that comment was was a bit over the top but I think you will get it. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

[@momster2552]

Glorious craft room! I gotta drag my hubs to IKEA, only because he is my voice of reason, and get some of that peg board.

[@therumimillcrochet]

I love my peg board. IKEA is probably much more reasonable than the container store. That whole wire shelving is the container store…I love it. I try to not go there often because…well, I’d need my husband to contain me too. 😂🤣

I also love to. Richest. Right now I am into crocheting marshmallow toppers. Small projects are easy on my arthritis. 16:54

Agreed! My elbow is what is hurting me, and small projects definitely are my go to. I’m ADHD, I can’t focus on one thing for too long.

[@karencostanzo7147]

I need to organize my "stuff" after seeing this! Wish I had a room since I am sequestered to a corner in the basement! LOL

[@therumimillcrochet]

Oh no!!! Not a corner. Girl, you’re definitely the entire dining room material. Totally!! And remember in the words of Patrick Swayze, (my lifetime crush) “nobody puts Baby/Karen in a corner.” 😂❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kelleytortorice1283]

You are a true crafter! Love your craft room! It is beautiful! My craft room is a yarn room. What a great idea to put the Sheepjees little bonbons in a basket! Mine are still in the falling-apart box. I still want to try Dishie. It looks soft.

[@therumimillcrochet]

Oh that I you! Yes, I dabble in a little bit of everything, but crochet has truly become my greatest love. I’m a sucker for a basket. I felt so bad for those little guys being trapped in that box. Now hopefully I’ll actually use them because they are within reach. And yes, try dishie. It is so soft!! And as long as you aren’t doing tight stitches like amigurumi, it’s amazing. It is soooooo soft. 💗😁

[@Yarnover_PullThrough]

I think we’re long lost twins in terms of addictions 😂

[@therumimillcrochet]

Family is always welcome, especially when we like the same stuff. ☺️❤️

[@LindaHollis-nk3go]

Love Love all you do. I am working on my doll room. I knit crochet and Tat so I’ve collected all of that stuff but I also collected a lot of dolls lots of dolls. We moved all of them from California to Indiana and just in Barbies I have probably over 100 of those and then at least 100 of everything else it’s too much, but I love it all and I’m trying to make room for everything and I have a piece of a building that I get to put all my knitting crocheting and Tatting in that is really a lot more. Oh well it’s all fun isn’t it love you bye

[@therumimillcrochet]

I’m so glad you enjoy the videos. What is tatting? I need to know if this is something I need to make room for too. 🤣😂 I truly think it’s a gift and medicine to be able to create. Glad I’m in good company. ❤️😁

[@LindaHollis-nk3go]

@@therumimillcrochet I guess the easiest way for me to show Tatting is to tell to look it up on KZbin. It is very old Tatting is what the Kings & Queens wore around there nick. I make earrings & doilies. It is made with a shuttle. Wish I could put a picture here, but I haven’t figured that out . Hope you can find it on KZbin.

[@SigalAlon]

Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing. Your chair - the one with the turquoise stripes - looks interesting.

[@therumimillcrochet]

I love that chair. It’s from the container store. It’s basically strong elastic bands that form the seat.

[@kathydodson8925]

So nice i think summers tips and stitches did the granny square blanket she did not seem too impressed either

[@therumimillcrochet]

Yea….it was not that great. Plus the fb group for it also sucked the joy out of it for me. Lots of complaining. It’s hard to say which was worse, my own complaining about the colors or others complaining about everything. 🤣😂💗

[@tanysims]

U can use the squares u didnt like for your pots holders or hot pot mats or sell them 🎉

Great idea!! Thank you! 💗

I so so so wish I could show you my set up. I call it organizes choas 😅 is it functional? No. Can I find anything? Still no but I'm having a great time 😂

[@therumimillcrochet]

🤣😂 And that’s all that matters! Organized chaos is also a wonderfully grand thing. And all that matters is that you know where your favorite things are, the rest is just gravy on top. If it helps, after each video, that room looks like a tornado just went through it. 🌪️Glad you’re here! 😍❤️

[@user-zr8xo9ys5h]

loved the video, where did you stash the star wars crochet kit, the reason I ask is because I just purchased the Harry Potter one at Sams and it is sitting by my chair calling my name lol

[@therumimillcrochet]

I put it in my “content” box. I also have that Harry Potter Kit and another Star Wars one. My only suggestion is to use a different hook, and maybe different yarn. The yarn that comes in those kits is so rough and splitty. The Star Wars kit you saw in the video is actually for finger puppets. Why I needed it, I don’t know, but I did. 🤣😂Post pics in our group when your done. I love seeing your work! ❤️

[@sheilaw1273]

Love your organization! Where did you get your chair?

The weird part is yes!!!! I love, like love, to organize. It drives my husband nuts. But I at least know where his stuff is, unlike him. 🤣😂

Loved the craft room tour! What amigurumi pattern is the cute whitish toy with the bright pink little skirt next to the dk blanket? It isreally cute! I love the aqua paint-so fresh andit makes me feel happy to see it in you videos!

[@therumimillcrochet]

Glad you liked it!! That is a horse/pony from Khuc Cay’s first book. It is just the cutest thing. Her patterns are adorable and she has a new book coming out in March or May I think. Thanks for a sweet comment!!💗💗

[@kerriekean7401]

Thank you for taking the time to let me know wehere the pattern was from-it sure is cute and you did a great job making it. My amigurumi making is slowly improving but I seem to do a lot of remaking-especailly in getting limbs of creatures to come out the same size! ONe always seems to be bigger or smaller than the other one-very frustrating!@@therumimillcrochet

[@therumimillcrochet]

@@kerriekean7401 be patient with yourself, it takes time. I highly suggest a row counter, life changing. The other thing that might be happening is your tension changing. If I make an arm early in the day and one later in the day, always, without fail one is bigger than the other. One I’m not exhausted from living life and the other life happened. 🤣😂 I promise there will be a point and it’ll all come together and be just right. 💗💗

[@kerriekean7401]

Thanks for the advice! I hadn't thought about tension change connected to time of the day-but it makes snese that it would! I also wanted to apologize/explain that I am from Australia so I automatically use the spelling of 'Mum' instead of 'Mom'. I hope it wasn't inappropriate as I didn't think about the spelling until just now!@@therumimillcrochet

[@therumimillcrochet]

@@kerriekean7401 yes, time of day truly makes a difference, strangely enough. I have quite a few pieces that are a little “off” because of that very thing. It’s totally normal. 😉oh no! You are just fine. I knew exactly what you meant. My husband is actually working in Perth at the moment, so I think we are pretty much neighbors at this point. 😍💗

[@shazratuk]

Just wondering if there is a way for me to turn off the background music? Really love what I have seen but I really struggle when there is music and you are talking …..

[@therumimillcrochet]

Unfortunately no…I’m trying to get that volume adjusted. It’s a different level in my editing software than when it’s uploaded. Thank you for the feedback. 😉

[@mkmartin1630]

What pattern do you use for your ribbon yarn baskets?

[@therumimillcrochet]

The pattern that I’ve found that I love is by Yarn and chai, and it’s called the herringbone round basket. Super easy and a quick make. 😁

[@lunamalicreations]

You spoke about shipping stuff and writing cards to go with it do you have an online shop of some kind? I couldn’t find any link 🤔

[@therumimillcrochet]

Hi there! I have a small private group and I only do custom pieces for friends and family. I’ve kinda closed up shop though. I needed a change….so, that’s where this whole KZbin stuff came into play. I occasionally take orders but I honestly just don’t have time to get them done like I once did.😁

A stool, and I try to only put stuff up high that I know I won’t use much. In my second craft room video, I have a much better set up for my needs.

I'm really enjoying this video, but the background music seems loud to me, making it a little hard to hear you. I realize that the video is older, but maybe a note for the future?

[@therumimillcrochet]

Hi Kris….you’re right. 🤦🏻‍♀️That was one of my first few videos and it took me a bit to figure out my sound mixing. The good thing is now, I know how to get the levels right. Glad you enjoyed the video the though…I promise, they are better now. ☺️💖
