Hi from Hobart, Tasmania. Thank you for the lovely Vlogmas you generously share with us each year, also thanks to your family. I was sad to hear that you've been dealing with some nasty people online. You're among friends here, all over the world. Best wishes to you and yours for the holiday season and the year ahead.

Hi from Melbourne, Australia. Inspired by the vlogmas intro with your range of mugs I purchased a new mug this morning. I tend to use the same mug every time for my herbal teas I have daily. I am now endeavouring to find a mug tree/rack. My local supermarket, Target or Kmart have nothing that grabs my attention, I may have to purchase online which I am loathe to do. Thank you for sharing and inspiring us.👍🏻

I also knitted some Sophie scarfs. I just put a light bulbstitchmsrker in the increase/decrease. That helps in the rowcounting.😊 Thanks for your vlogs.❤

Sandy I use a Lightbulb Stitch marker to mark the Edge on the Increase Row on my Sophie Scarf, count 4 Bump Rows for next Increase.❤

As a Danish person I love to see Danish designs on your needles 🥰😍

Your Niagara Falls trip was a great surprise. I live in Michigan but I've never been to Niagara Falls. Thank you all❤

Hey Sweety. If you dont see the point, where you must decrese one tip. I take a leftover from a different color and when i decrese i twist it around the new stitch and go on and on. Then you can see it better and when you finish you can pull and all is fine. I enjoy beeing with you in vlogmas. My husband passed away last year with 54 and i was so afraid of christmas, it is so hard. But you make me a few minutes better❤. Greetings from germany

I am so sorry for your loss. Glad you are here and thank you for your tip.

I use the Eucerin eczema body stuff for anything i have that needs to heal but especially eczema patches. it is the only thing i found that actually gets rid of my eczema which i get in the winter, it uses collodial oatmeal. it is available in any drugstore! maybe that is something to give a go if you have other spots of eczema.

Hi Sandy. I've had the same thing with my eyes. I only use hypoallergenic makeup now, specifically mascara and no more issues. Not sure if it would help you but just thought I'd mention it. Thank you for taking us along on your trip. ❤

Hello from Mounds, Illinois!

[@mariamclauchlan8180]

Have you changed your mascara and application brushes? You could be reinfecting your eyes everything you put makeup on.

[@bythelakeside]

I have changed it, I think it’s hormonal (perimenopause).

[@mariamclauchlan8180]

@@bythelakeside ugh, - it’s the worst isn’t it? At least you look like you’re only 30! 🧡🧡
