[@GardenWitchStitch]

Thank you for being you. My grandma passed away two days ago. She was my everything. Being able to sit down, crochet and watch your videos has been a comfort. Thank you

[@BlondieKnots]

My dear friend , my deepest condolences. I am so so sorry for your loss… I just lost my grandmother in January and I know it’s hard. I hope you take this time to enjoy crocheting, take it easy and be kind to yourself. Grief is hard and it’s okay to not be okay , you’ll be in my thoughts and prayers ❤️

[@virginiacopping8830]

I love this cotton from Hobby lobby . That is my go to cotton yarn. I did a lot of crocheting taking my granddaughter to her cemo treatments. She fought for a little over 3 years with stage 4 bladder cancer. She lost her battle in April. 42 was way to early especially when she had to young daughters still to raise. I so enjoy your channel. I hope you get around to making that cowboy hat.

[@virginiacopping8830]

My Prayers to you and your loss.

[@StrangerReads]

No words will ever be enough to say how sorry I am about your mom. I hope you're taking good care of yourself and doing things that make you happy and that would make your mom happy.

@@BlondieKnotsI lost my nana in January too. ❤️

[@trinityzibbell9287]

I think it would be such a cool idea for you to do a video similar to your crochet for a week video and make stuff from your Pinterest board for a week, or even a series where you make one item at a time. I know I would personally love to watch it!

[@BlondieKnots]

thats a very cute idea! Thank you so much for the idea!🥰

[@premieryarns]

Meanwhile im sitting here in summer crocheting a sweater so it will be finished before winter :D

[@BlondieKnots]

LOL thats okat friend! Weve all been there done that!

[@bobby7359]

Maybe try Coboo yarn? It’s got the silky texture of bamboo, but lighter weight because of the cotton. No worries if you still hate it hehehe

[@AbbyBlume]

I just started crocheting and I have been loving your channel! Lots of great ideas 🫶

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh yay! Im so glad youre enjoying my content! Welcome to the crochet community! Im so glad I could give you some good ideas! 🥰

So many great ideas! I’m literally making passionate Kelsie’s lily top while I’m watching your video! I love that granny stitch tank, especially in that orange color. Toooo cute. I absolutely love your blue top you just made. I need to try that pattern. Thanks for sharing all the great ideas ❤

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh how funny! I’m sure it looks beautiful!! And yay! I’m so glad you enjoyed all the ideas🥰🫶🏻

[@elizabethjohnny682]

So I'm deep in winter over here in Australia with my Oodie on right now (7*C) 😂 but I've actually been looking at t-shirts and tanks lately to prep for spring and summer! I really want to try the "Crochet Mesh Tank Top" by For the Frills, the "Chasing Summer Tank Top" by Knits n Knots and the "V-Stitch V-Neck Crochet Top" by MJ's Off the Hook Designs. You've given me inspo to look at a light jumper/pullover!

[@BlondieKnots]

Ohhh that sounds chilly willy!! Im glad I inspired you to try a little pullover! How fun!! Stay warm my friend!

[@courtneyquarzenski3206]

I am curtainly crocheting a floral square top to match my bucket hat. ❤ love the video. The sea shells on the is so beautiful! I have to try it out.

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh that sounds lovely my friend!! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! Definitely test out the shells!

[@misokyoryu1416]

First of all, I love your outfit today and the hair is adorable, Dana! These were all fantastic ideas, I've been interested lately in trying out wearables so this definitely is pushing me to start. Have a nice rest of the week! -Ash

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh thank you so much my friend for the kind words🥰 Im proud of you for looking into trying something new like a wearable!! You go friend!! Have a lovely weekend!

[@Hooksandsnuggles]

This video came at the PERFECT time! Thank you love! ❤️

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh youre so welcome! IM so glad you enjoyed 🥰

[@margaretmmg]

My future daughter-in-law bought a bucket hat kit from Wool and the Gang. I ended up making her the hat and the cotton yarn, that was included, worked up very nicely. Also, thanks for the suggestions!

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh great! Thank you for the insight! I’m glad you enjoyed my suggestions🥰

[@mrscooper1000]

Love these ideas❤

[@BlondieKnots]

YAY Im so glad 🥰

[@toro8star]

The strawberry-looking cup cozy is cute looking pattern! You should make some. 😊

[@BlondieKnots]

It is soo darling.. I know I just need to do it already!😅

[@madisonheise]

Love your recs! I’m happy the paradise pullover is out, I’m pregnant and wanted to crank it out before I got too big to wear it! I made a cowboy hat for my sister in laws boyfriend for Christmas and I had to size down my hook and use a tighter gauge for the brim so it didn’t flop around and then I placed it in the shape I wanted and put mod podge on it which worked well ! I’ve also seen people recommend floral wire to help with shaping ! Lastly, I’ve never used it but have been told Coboo is better than truboo since the cotton adds some sturdiness and lightness to the bamboo and it doesn’t stretch and wear out as quickly

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh awesome! Im glad it came out in time for you to make!! Thank you so much for the cowboy hat advice, I will def be using those recommendations when I make one!! And i have never tried caboo! Thank you for letting me know! I was nervous it was very similar to turboo! Ill have to give it a shot!

[@sm-wg2yg]

cup koozies are the best best best summer project 🙌🏻 work up so quick i can’t ever make enough lol can’t wait to see what you make!!

[@BlondieKnots]

Ohhh good to know!! That helped motivate me to try one for sure 🫶🏻😊

[@Ohitskelly]

Thank you for all the wonderful inspiration!

[@BlondieKnots]

You are so welcome!🤗

[@InmysparetimeCrochet]

So much inspo! Being winter it’s freezing here at the moment but heading to your Pinterest right now to save! You did a great job of your shell bag, it’s adorable! ❤ xx

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh thank you so much! Im sorry its so chilly by you!! Stay warm my friend! 🥰

[@krissi_kreations]

I love all the ideas!! Just started making a swimsuit cover with Hobby lobby “I love this cotton”. You definitely should try it, it’s super soft ❤

[@BlondieKnots]

Im so glad you liked everything! And ohh CUTE! I bet its looking amazing! Thanks for letting me know you like that yarn as well🥰

[@StitchofmyDreams]

I’ve been making cup cozy’s out of the tshirt yarn. It’s great in the pool because it has a handle and it can get wet!

[@BlondieKnots]

OMG Thank you!! I will be doing this as well!

[@StitchofmyDreams]

@@BlondieKnots 🤗

[@sarsparkles7903]

I would love to see how you made the shell flowers

Loved all these! ❤ Not that my list of things i want to make needed to get any longer haha 😅

[@BlondieKnots]

I know right!! lol Im in the same boat

[@cj-lx7bo]

4TH comment!!!! Daina ( Sorry if I spelt that wrong ) I love all your videos and each one is beyond amazing!! I hope you have a wonderful day!! #CROCHET

Close! Its Dana! BUt its no worries at all 🥰 Oh thank you so much! Im so glad you enjoyed everything! I hope you have an amazing too my friend!!

[@HeyitsMegan90]

Love inspiration crochet videos like this, thank you! You should absolutely try the I Love This Cotton yarn from Hobby Lobby, it’s incredibly soft for a cotton yarn! ❤

[@BlondieKnots]

Everyone has raved about it I'll definitely have to check it out! Thank you so much!

[@bbstch3]

I feel so inspired ❤

[@MarshaBass-l8x]

Love your videos and all your great Ideas!!! Want to make your pool bag but I’m having trouble finding appropriate yarn. Can you tell me specifically what brand and size yarn you used. Thanks so much!

[@agxx.z]

ugh that yellow bralette is to die for I need to make it. I'm currently working on freehanding a wrap skirt for the pool with double crochet chain 1. I see them everywhere and I've had to stop myself from buying them haha. I'm using a blue gradient caron cake yarn and I'm so excited!! 🌊🩵

[@BlondieKnots]

OMg SOOO CUTE! Im so excited for you , i tried to make one of those and I gave up lol I should really pick it back up as well!

[@simoneclarke5104]

Loved this video, it gave me some great ideas🥰!!

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh Im so glad you think so 🥰

[@todaysfixation]

I’ve worn an acrylic crochet top in the pool 😊

[@JessicaTaylorIO]

I like to use the cakes cup pads because they are silicone and don't have any sticky, easy to clean and grippy when wet/sweaty for crotchet bras lol

[@BlondieKnots]

Ohh very interesting, thats a great idea!

[@annikanoelart]

What yarn did you use for the second item? (Erin b - top down raglan long sleeve)

[@BlondieKnots]

All scrap yarn! But it just a large variety of cotton yarns

[@sherryrobinson9602]

Do you have strawberry festivals in your area? If so, the strawberry cozy may be a good options. Especially if are not seeing anyone else making them.

[@BlondieKnots]

That would be a fantastic idea!!! Sadly I have no adorable strawberry festivals near me or I so would!

[@SherlockRhodes]

As a bigger gurl, I have been very shy about clothing. I started a sweater last year for my mom, but now she's 6 sizes smaller, so there's that... But I love those tops. Like enough to maybe make one! Thanks for the ideas. I'm still staying away from dresses for now. Just saying. 😂

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh no my beautiful friend!! Im so sorry you feel that way but just know you can wear anything youd like as long as your happy! Give one a try!! And trust me I know the feeling! I started a sweater for my husband last year and now hes too big for it as well so I GET IT! lol

[@krishnalynne]

Omg passioknit kelsie mentioned! I actually an almost done making her retro top. Not difficult and love that she has a video tutorial!

[@BlondieKnots]

She really seems to be the top queen!! Im so glad your enjoying making yours!!🥰

[@emmagrace3368]

do you think you can make a video of the things you make with the yarn you wanna try? i’ve had the eddie bauer cotton yarn for forever and have no idea what to make with it

[@BlondieKnots]

Thats a great idea! I will try to get around to something like that!!

[@parveenmann7317]

Lovely inspo for my next projects, would you recommend cotton or acrylic yarn for these items (especially the polo t) thank you xx

[@BlondieKnots]

@@parveenmann7317 certainly cotton!!

[@BlondieKnots]

Really?! Fantastic news , Ill defintely check it out! Im glad you enjoyed the inspo! 🥰

[@Cymone90]

I love Circulo Anne cotton yarn sadly it’s fingering weight so I knit more than crochet with it. I’m hoping I can pump out maybe two moons tops by mermaidcat designs before the end of the summer. Thank you for sharing; I love the projects you picked.

[@BlondieKnots]

Oh soo cute! I hope you get those done too! Im so glad you liked the projects!

[@payton5707]

Question for you! How do you weave in your end with the shaggy scrap Ragland? I love making them but trebles are so spacey that I can’t seem to figure out how to hide them discreetly

[@BlondieKnots]

It is challenging, as you can see in the video you can still see the seam but I really think using so many colors helped hide and distract the ends woven in. I try to weave them in by crocheting the next row over them as much as possible!

[@PookiebearshawBooo]
