Reach Your Crochet Goals By Year-End

[@ValerieHollifield]

Thanks Shannon. My son and I are still painting my yarn room. It’s coming along slowly but at least we’re working on it!

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

I’m excited for you! It’s going to be awesome

[@bonneswartzfager4190]

Yes, this month has been super busy so crochet has taken a back seat. I'm not sure when I'll get back on track.

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

I agree, this has been super crazy lately!!!

[@leahk8555]

I like setting crochet goals. It's fun & motivating. Especially since I have to schedule my time to craft.

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

That's awesome!

[@PamelasCrochetKnitCorner1]

Awesome vid!!! I have been doing things like frogging projects that no longer brings me joy....rewinding yarn, finishing my wips. Next is to destash!!!!

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

I’m done hanging on to projects that don’t bring me joy either!

[@racenelasater]

You look so awesome in beanies

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

@@racenelasater thank you, I really enjoy Malians wearing them!

My son lives in Iowa he and his wife are police in Omaha

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

That's awesome! Omaha is a nice city. My daughter lived there for a year after she graduated college.

Hi Shannon! I feel like this year I have been more on track with my goals I’ve set this year than past years. Writing them down definitely helps me. Unless it’s projects I “want” to make/design, then it stresses me out. Makes me feel like I have to do everything right then and there. Thanks for the tips and will be looking forward to your next video and Saturday!😁

I made a goal to challenge myself by making a “Sophie’s Universe” blanket. I’m halfway through and enjoying it. I take breaks from it and make small fun projects. They give me the joy of finishing something and help me not get bogged down. Thanks for another great video.

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

That’s awesome! It’s such a good way to balance out and pace yourself!

[@meaganm77]

Another great video!! ❤

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

Thank you Meagan! ❤️

[@joannunemaker6332]

I enjoyed this video. Good luck with your projects.😊❤

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

Thank you! 😊 and good luck with yours too!

I’ve reached some of my goals, but not all. I had a few things I wanted to make until I realized it’s probably not a good idea to take on more complicated projects in the middle of getting ready to move across the country lol 😄… but the year isn’t over yet, I still might reach my goals 😁

I've known for 7 months that our son was returning after 8 yrs overseas. It's now 15 sleeps before he arrives! He'll be staying with us briefly to rest and find his new direction. Trouble is, the guest room has become the dumping ground for miscellaneous supplies. Did I pace myself throughtout the year and get small sections done? No. Did l leave it all to the last minute? Yes, yes I did. Am I now desperately trying to clean up and clear out? Yes, yes I am. Sigh...

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

I’m pretty sure we have all done something similar! Don’t be hard on yourself! How exciting to have your son staying with you!!!!!!!

[@leahk8555]

​@@ShannonTalksYarnshe should check out the video or podcast you made about cleaning the craftroom!

[@cocoscrochet6380]

Hi Shannon 🤗 good idea! Will try to find that goals list! 🥰🧶🤩

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

You are great at lists and completing them!

[@Christena1601]

I'm starting a big granny square project for one of my grandparents that is due by xmas. I am not a fan of granny squares, so it is a real challenge for me. I also am working on expanding my wearable skills.❤

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

That is tough when you don’t enjoy a particular project…. I get that!!! Hopefully you can break it down into manageable chunks to keep it from being overwhelming. Maybe treat yourself when you hit certain points to keep motivated!

[@showandtellmeg]

Yep its that time of year that I wonder what ive been doing with my life lol. Im being nice to myself about it since I got married in that time, but its hard to remember the other things you had going on when you're looking at your finished objects and wondering why there aren't more. Even so, I realized I've made 4 sweaters already and thats nuts, so clearly I've done more than I feel like I have. Im about to jump into sewing mode and make myself a bunch of clothes, but I have a few gifts I need to finish as well. Always something to do!

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

You have done amazing things all ready!! And you’re right, we do need to remember to be kind to ourselves and realize how much other stuff is on our plates!

[@LyraStitchery]

One of my big goals is to do my crochet dress. I was originally going to make it in Coral and Teal but coral yarn I have is too much on the orange side so I am going to make it pink and teal. Like a dark pink.

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

Oooh that would be pretty! 😍

[@LyraStitchery]

I thought I was going to make all the clothes. Only making clothes is hard. So amigurumi then. And now I am trying decorative useful pieces and will try clothes again since I have been crocheting for a year or so.

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

Oh yeah, there’s no reason to push yourself past your comfort zone!

[@donnafiore3782]

Love your hat!!! Those colors are gorgeous. Do you remember what yarn you used? Thank you so much

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

Yep! Here’s a video where I talk all about it! 😃 Halloween Yarn You've Been Waiting For.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGqQmpeoZq6AjtU
