Thank you so much for the prayers. Congrats to you for adopting a new furbaby! What is your baby's name? I hope you and your family have an amazing holiday season!

[@cfalviso87]

How to make your own eyes video next. 😊

[@moweelimeyoutube]

I agree. Yasss I clicked on the Amazon link and I don’t know how to get it from the bottle to the safety eye. 😢

[@thecozybuckeye]

Are you asking about the embroidery on the cat or the safety eyes?

[@desireeayat9520]

Aloha from Hawaii 🌴 The dinos and the chick's in the eggs are the best!! Much Aloha to you and Raja. It's not easy. ALOHA!

[@thecozybuckeye]

Prayers for Raja, furry friends are the best and they understand how much love you have for them. Love the crochet sweater 😍OMG!! Yes a video on eyes 👀 would be awesome. April your videos are awesome!!!!

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you, Azalia! I hope you are well! I have so many ideas for videos right now and not enough time, lol. Today I'm working on Etsy orders for Christmas and filming, but that video will be coming soon. I promise. Happy Holidays friend.

[@KraftyKaren-7]

Hello April, thank you for sharing another video of your day to day activities and market preps. Hugs and Prayers for Raja and You. It's so heartbreaking when our fur babies are ill. it's understandable that you'll need time with Rajas passing, but just know we are here with you, and for you. God Bless and keep you sweet heart.

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so much Karen! I appreciate your support, hugs and prayers. I am preparing and enjoying my baby while I can. I have been down this sad road before and understand the impact and short time we share with our furbabies. He will always hold a special place in my heart. Happy Holidays to you and your family!

[@shellieposavatz5235]

That variegated yarn makes very cute turtle shells and jellyfish tentacles

[@thecozybuckeye]

I agree with you on that suggestion. I have so much of these variegated yarns I need to get creative.

[@Ashes_lit]

@@thecozybuckeyeoooooh it’s super cute inside of ears and bottoms of feet or hats for plushies and such too :)

[@ME-ns3pc]

Ohhhhhhhh! He’s so, so, sooooooo precious!!!!❣️🐢 42:49

[@jahairamartinez9771]

The cozy buckeye great video

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you for stopping by and spending time with me. I appreciate you!

[@sk13507]

Lol, yes definitely not enough time in a day to do anything. It seems as you get older time just don't wait for you. Plus, crafting takes time. You make beautiful hats and plushy. Yes please make a video on embroideries eyes Praying for Raja he knows your family love him.

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you for your prayers! Time definitely does not wait or slow down for anything. Thank you so much for your continuous support. I am going to make a video on eyes soon! I hope your holidays are filled with joy!

[@carolrutkowski7280]

You have given me a lot of good advice about running a small business from start to finish. I was a first time crochet vendor held at the Waverly Woods Golf Club, in Maryland, 2 weeks ago. It was an exciting event and I made a lot of people happy. Happy Holiday to you and your family, including your fur babies!

[@thecozybuckeye]

@@carolrutkowski7280 That’s incredible and I’m so happy for you! I love doing markets so much! Thank you for sharing and supporting me. Happy holidays!

[@ASquareGranny]

JUST thinking of you & here you are, dear friend! Xxx☺️🧡 ps…I’m looking forward to things after the holidays, too! Can’t wait to work with you 🥰. I was a pattern tester for the “no-sew Christmas critters” pattern pack a month or two ago…it’s by coffee n crochet 01…(and pawgys place, I think. They often work together). Such little chunky minis ❤️

[@thecozybuckeye]

I’ve been thinking about you too. I hope you are doing well. I am looking forward to working with you. I would love to set up a meeting or call after the holidays.

[@dawn_crochets_a_lot]

Great video, I like the way you share so many close ups of the eye details, etc. Loved the big fluffy chicken 🐓 Thanks for the sweet pic of Rahjah & the update, although not the best news. He will be loved as much as possible while he’s still with you. ❤ I hope you have a really nice Christmas with friends and family!

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you for your kind words. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video.

[@ReneeWalker69]

You’re doing amazing. I’ve been watching you since the beginning and I just love your style and everything that you do. I can’t wait to see some of your patterns.

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you for following along and being here with me! I appreciate your support.

[@Connie.the.Crocheter]

Loved the green eyebrow grinch the best! Happy holidays!

[@thecozybuckeye]

Me too! Happy Holidays to you too! Thank you so much for spending time with me!

[@ReneeWalker69]

That pink sweater is absolutely amazing. I want one just like it. Maybe I should make one but then again it’d be so much easier to just buy it lol maybe I’ll check out Linda’s store.

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so much! She did an amazing job on this sweater. I know she has it listed in her Etsy shop. Let me know if you decide to buy one!

[@MimiMakesKeepsakes]

I may look into mystery boxes this Spring. Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas

[@thecozybuckeye]

@@MimiMakesKeepsakes You should! They were a hit for me! Happy Holidays!😘

[@lindasakseide282]

Another lovely video, and I was really surprised to see my cardigan. Thank you SOOO much for the shout-out, dear friend ❤. Your chickens in the eggs are soooooo, so beautiful and cool. I really love the whole concept, and when I did my market a month ago I copied your adoption of cats idea, and all 6 got adopted. I am so sorry to hear about your cat, though. I thought Raja didn't look its best in one of your recent videos, and it was so sad to see. Thinking about you all 🙏❤🙏.

[@thecozybuckeye]

I do love the sweater Linda! Thanks again for always being so kind to me. I don't know what I did to deserve it. I hope you have a wonderful holiday!

[@krystasimmons8611]

Eeeww I could never do that much sewing and embroidery on my stuff. Thank god for safety eyes lol. I like the grinch better with the scarf and the dark green eyebrows.

[@thecozybuckeye]

I understand. My crochet business has been based on ALOT of sewing so I can def appreciate low sewing or even better NO sewing, LOL.

[@mightymia10]

I ordered note cards from KohamcheColorado, which I've already received and they're beautiful. Plus a sweatshirt from BachWaveDesigns which I can't wait to wear. I told them both you sent me. 😁

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so much for shopping with these businesses & for telling them I sent you! You’re amazing! 😘

[@freckledbrunettecreations]

That little dino is a cutie! And sending you guys and Raja so much love and so many prayers. 🫶🏻

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so much for the love and prayers for me and Raj!❣🐈

[@Pocketsnuggies]

What about a turtle shell with that multi-colored yarn?

[@thecozybuckeye]

That's a great idea. Thank you! Happy Holidays!

[@pamelascrochet2]

Hello nice to meet you I'm a crocheter and i live in dayton ohio I have a channel and working on the small business ❤

[@thecozybuckeye]

Nice to meet you! Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

[@carinacorp5214]

Great video as always. Looking forward to seeing and purchasing your patterns. I've made reindeer and turkey hats. They all ended up being too big. I've gone down in size, changed hook size. I 11:56 deas what am I doing wrong? Merry Christmas 🎅

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you for watching. It's probably too big because you have too many stitches around, maybe lessen the increases. Hope that helps and Merry Christmas to you too!

[@theresashandmadegifts]

😘🤗❤️

[@brdxracer]

I just bought the chicken in the egg pattern and can’t wait to get started! How much do you sell them for?

[@thecozybuckeye]

I love this pattern, and it sells so well for me at $18 here in the Cincinnati area.

[@SecretWindowBoutique]

Do you sell the template for your adoption certificates? I bought a printer so I can make some! You mention it in the video but I haven't been able to find it. Thank you!

[@thecozybuckeye]

I am getting ready to list it real soon! I’m about to film a video with the cat embroidery and the cat adoption certificates.

[@ivawottle1144]

where did you get the shark pattern? God Bless

[@thecozybuckeye]

@allfromjade on IG I believe. Check out here KZbin also.

[@soft_threads]

If you don’t mind me asking you what type of yarn do you use for making your hats

[@thecozybuckeye]

For years I used Michaels Impeccable, but I also love Hobby Lobby I Love this yarn. Happy Holidays!

[@soft_threads]

@ thank you so much for your time to reply me back it really means a lot to me. Lots of love from India

[@ReneeWalker69]
