Can't See the Car for the Trees & Crochet Podcast Episode 59! | The Secret Yarnery

[@marykleege]

I'm a pencil grip and I love clovers very comfortable and my hand does not get tired. I have never used a tulip hook. I think it is wonderful you donated all that yarn! “The heart that gives, gathers.” ― Tao Te Ching

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi, Mary Kleege!! Thanks for sharing! Hugs to you and yours!! xx

[@EvieO1950]

Oh I love that shoulder shrug -- love, love, love the color!! Can't wait to see the new version (not in eyelash) sounds like that one would be perfect for me! Can't believe how much yarn you had to donate. Girl that was unreal!! Adorable kiddos! Thanks for taking us along on your hike!

[@ellen4284]

MY 6 PACK CHALLENGE!!!! arrived lat Friday!! Love it!! For anyone ordering from Canada it shipped out on Monday the 11th and I received on Friday the 15th. It did miss a flight connection so I guess I could have had Thursday - no worries!!! SO - I also had to pay import fees. Total cost (including shipping and import fees - $104.99 CDN. Works out to $2.18 CDN per skein. It was the $20.00 USD shipping which at the time of ordering was @ $27.00 CDN (exchange was about 1.34 USD for 1.00 CDN !! ) Still a good deal even with the exchange rate! Can't wait to use it and already have more in my cart!!! I love the yarn - thank you for introducing it to us!!!

[@SecretYarnery]

That's fabulous, Ellen!! Great information. Thank you SO much for sharing!! xx

[@lauririvera1820]

[@karenc.3689]

Just received my first order, $20.95 in shipping. Bought from the garage sale, 6 bags, 44 items ($42.89 total). Loved the yarn and was amazed by the shipping time. Ordered on a Friday and received the following Tuesday afternoon. Turkey to Minnesota, USA and the weather here was bad. One of the last big snow storms (hopefully, this year who knows). I am new to your channel, joined a few weeks ago. You can't imagine how Kenya and the temperatures seem like paradise to me. Love your channel, am hoping to join the next CAL. Thanks for all your comments and recommendations about yarn. I will order again from ICE I'm sure.

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh I am so glad, Karen C.l! So happy you found me! Thank you!! xx

LOVE the colours you chose for the chair slipcover.

[@SecretYarnery]

Thank you!

[@danim3738]

@Beth Churchmack, I am able to crochet with both hands, but I hold my hook differently for each hand. I do hold it in pencil grip in my left, and I have found that with the ergonomic hooks, as long as I can keep the hook facing the right way, and there is a flat spot, it's not too bully. And I have just many different brands of hooks with the ergonomic handles

[@MrKristiegk]

OK Christa, you've totally tempted me to stop making hats and scarves for a while and make a shoulder shrug! I've never made a wearable but I know I can do this. Thank you for the inspiration!!!

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh I am so glad, MrsKristiegkl! Go for it!! xx

[@tanyabarker4406]

Yes I hold my hook pencil style a d find ergonomic hooks great. I have used several different ones and they have all been good to use.

[@SecretYarnery]

That's awesome, Tanya Barker! Thanks for sharing!! xx

[@knitpurlsquirrelwithgrannydee]

Love, love, love the color pooled blanket! Love trying to get that effect and finally achieving it! Love the colors also. I’ve never done a granny square or any type square yet with crochet, and I love yours, but wouldn’t enjoy putting them together; I don’t think anyway. Have some ICE in my cart just awaiting payday - will be my birthday pressie to me from me. Ha ha!

That's fabulous, Dee Thompson!! Happy early Level Up!! xx

I crochet pencil style because I have more control in holding and maneuvering the project. I use Clover hooks and they feel great in my hands. I have arthritis and crocheting with the Clover hooks I can crochet for hours with no pain or discomfort.

[@RIODJENIRO1]

really like your shoulder shrugs, I have many dresses without sleeves and need cover ups for, thanks so much for this! Also I would add some small bobble stitches to the back scrubber this would give more of an abrasive scrub feel for the back, IMHO... just a thought. sorry I missed the live feed, I have been dog/puppy sitting and my attention/time was taken away. thanks Christa for all you do and share..

[@SecretYarnery]

Awe! Thank you so much, Rio DJeNIRO! And great ideas!! BIG hugs! xx

[@crazygamerchickcrazy-g-c7569]

Wow that was a lot of yarn, I do a Yarn work shop and we teach people with disabilities and Learning problems.. We get donations but not very often.... That amount of yarn would of made so many people happy....

[@knitpurlsquirrelwithgrannydee]

FoH_Crazy_MF, yeah, know what you mean. We take yarn donations at my church for the prayer shawl group I started four years ago, but shipping would definitely be a problem for someone as far away as Christa. Don’t know where you are. Sounds like she picked a good group to donate to though. Have you asked for yarn donations locally for your group?

@@knitpurlsquirrelwithgrannydee I'm from London UK so a bit far away lol

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi, FoH_Crazy_MF and Dee! YES - even I wanted to gift it to my subscribers, but the shipping would be thousands and thousands of dollars. SUCH a bummer.

[@crazygamerchickcrazy-g-c7569]

@@SecretYarnery yeah it is a bummer lol, not many people donate yarn near me as I don't know anyone that Crochets or Knits near me. Just read your reply and it's 6:16 here in London UK haven't been to sleep yet as I have a poorly two year old.

[@kerrynwright]

Soooooo excited to see your colour pooling blanket featured!! 😊 My 1st order from Ice Yarns was specifically to buy the Gumball yarn (which was on the "daily deal") to crochet a colour pooling blanket after seeing yours! Yay! In that same order I bought a pack of eyelash blend rainbow black as it was crazy cheap & 2 baby cakes! My order came to about $50 AUD.... yarn was only about $20 & shipping $30 to Australia, which I choked on, but it came within a week. I LOVE the eyelash yarn soooo much that I ordered 2 more packets of eyelash blend rainbow black a few days ago, which was less than $6 AUD for 800g!!!! WHAT?!! Then shipping was $14 AUD for regular shipping as it was a lot cheaper than express & I'm not in a rush for the yarn! The yarn still works out cheaper than anywhere else..... even with expensive shipping! I've made back washers, but I only crochet a shorter section than you (about 1/4 to 1/3 of your length) & then put a handle on each end using just chain. It uses way less yarn & dries much faster. You only use a small section of yarn on your back anyway & it's small enough to hang up easily in the shower. I use a pencil grip on my cheap aluminium hooks. I have the ergonomic crochet hooks, but don't like them & don't use them as the yarn clunks unto the thick section of the handle & drives me nuts!! I've never tried Clover hooks, so maybe they'd be better, but for now I'm sticking with the hooks I crochet fastest with & that I enjoy..... just cheap aluminium!! Oh my...... soooo much yarn you donated!!!! Congrats on the big cull! 👏 I was wishing it could go to K4C (Knit 4 Charities) an Aussie group I'm part of who send 1000s of handmade items to Aussie charities. Glad it's going to good use to bless others....... very kind of you, Christa! Blessings from South Australia, Kerryn 💕

Hello Christa, though I am new to your channel I can answer your question about Ice Yarns. As it so happens I have just received a shipment of Natural Garden (4), Silk Merino (5), Cotton Bamboo Light (3), Organic Baby Cotton (3) and Pure Wool (1). I paid about 130 USD for the yarn plus 43 USD for shipping. I live in Germany and it took them about 5 days. But I ordered on a Friday evening and the package arrived on the following Wednesday. I hope this answers your question. Thanks for your wonderful videos. They make me see crochet in a totally new way. Greetings from Germany!

The Secret Yarnery it feels beautiful. I also have ordered over the last month several types of each Aran Variegated , baby lollipops cakes, wool worsted, rock star, saver, bamboo light, color twist, natural cotton, GumBall, wool cord, Alara, Fireworks, Flamme wool and Winter navy copper. Now do you see why I’m going to need to hide in Kenya from my husband ? (Just kidding)

Hi, Erica Bates!! I will definitely show the Hippo in next week's podcast. YES to a tutorial on the African Flower - even the same as the Pressed Flower Granny Square I just did. HUGS! xx
