Oh, Jesus Calling is just the loveliest little devotional! That one is very close to my heart ❤

[@jas2627]

Christmas is over already! I just started watching Vlogmas. What a wonderful way to capture the daily hustle and bustle. Great memories to rewatch later on and reminisce of years past.

[@ruthannbull6515]

You started drinking your coffee and I said good grief mime was sitting there getting cold. What a bunch of advent. Love that.

[@chelsr4976]

I always look forward to your vlogmas! Beautiful yarn and totally cozy vibes--also that advent candle is so interesting! I've never seen one like it before.

[@sarahgamson8828]

My son would love a rubber duck advent calendar 😊

[@soniaboyko2703]

The yarn is awesome! Love your nails! So Christmasy! ❤️❤️🧶🧶

[@kiwijenniferknits]

Such a wonderful Day1! I can't believe how much knitting you did on all your Advent projects in this first day - they are all gorgeous!

[@Waninggibbouscreations]

Loving your advents so far. My hubby loves your guitar walls!!

[@carolineberk7525]

The pouring of the coffee. The glimpse of the boys. Watching your fingers fly. What a wonderful start! I enjoyed it immensely.

[@carolrobertson7723]

Hi Kay, one of us started knitting at the wrong end of the cozy knitter sock!! Loved day one!!

[@CrazySockLady]

Maybe I did 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 I had a lot of advents going so it’s for sure a possibility! Oh well, I don’t mind. 😂

[@mrsjudys]

Ahhhhh.....you included the pouring of the coffee! Show your knitting progress every day please. Enjoy seeing what you've accomplished. I saw the little dog steal Dexter's bone when he went after the toy! Lol! What a handsome young man driving you around. Thank you. 🌲💕🌲

[@vadec5909]

Lovely video!! Great advent yarns! I have a dog same as your Black and White one, and we have a dog advent calendar!! When I ring the bell its cookie time, lol

[@kaybellor2284]

Love the nails! What a cozy wonderful video.

[@shymoment]

Always enjoy Vlogmas with you each year.

[@nancykeate]

Today I had to make the cookies you shared last vlogmas! I haven’t made them since last holiday season and they are just the best thanks again for sharing so much 🍪🍪🍪

[@terrioxford2119]

Looks like fun. Kay your nails are just great. Stay safe. Walk in Peace.

[@barbmckinlay5108]

Over the years I’ve watched all your podcasts and vlogmas episodes. Love watching your family grow up and change over the years. Love the polka dot yarn the best today.

[@kathycrouch2291]

Absolutely love watching! And that look when you filmed the driver!!!! Priceless! You made progress on your advent items!!! The dogs and cats are cute!!!

[@CrazySockLady]

[@rdeniserhinehart7512]

[@EveChan1804]

Huge congrats to Austin for the first part of the license ! The end of the vlog gave me a big aww and a smile. The round throw will be so beautiful 😍

[@juliemccullagh3962]

Thank you for vlogmas Kay. Lovely to see all of your advent projects from the start xx

[@kristinahill3708]

This is my first year doing advent knitting and viewing vlogmas…what fun!!

[@dianaemmick1811]

Love all the progress on your projects already! You are always my favorite vlogmas and podcasts to watch! 💜

[@marianna-gypsysoulfibers141]

Happy vlogmas!! Love seeing what you have planned for your advents!

[@patriciaboughton5501]

I had never heard of Vlogmas or advent knitting until now😊. Love it. This has been very pleasant and calming

[@alissarice9725]

The polka dot yarn is so so pretty, I love seeing the progress on your projects ❤

[@carolg5770]

It's so much fun seeing you open each advent...and you have such a nice variety of projects that you're making with them too. And a duck advent too? So fun! I love seeing your pups they're so cute! Ahhhh, how well I remember having an teen driver. My daughter got her license after she graduated-boy was it nice not having to run her around. She said the same when her oldest son got his license. She loved having him cart his brother around so she didn't have to stop what she was doing to go.

[@elizabethparkes683]

Great video and love all the advent yarns, looking forward to seeing them all knitted

[@kathydehnel6172]

Love the first yarns. Makes me very excited to see each day. Thank you for sharing your pet family.

[@O1iviaR]

Yay Vlogmas!!! ❤

[@marilynwalker3311]

Love these videos for Advent. Beautiful yarn and music 🎶

[@Teresakloeppel]

Lovely colors. I think I’ll get the anthology throw pattern, love ❤️ it.

[@marissas8112]

I'm so excited for Vlogmas this year Kay! You got me right in the holiday mood, especially with your great music picks and all your Xmas deco! I'm also mind blown by how much knitting you can get done in a day! Happy Vlogmas!

[@knittingghost]

I think your podcast was the first knitting podcast I ever watched when I got more into knitting last year. I loved your vlogmas videos last year, super excited for this year's vlogmas! 🎄

[@barbaramartin6837]

The Polka Dot Creek yarn really caught my eye. It will be fun to see the yarns from that group each day. The snowman duck is over the top cute!

[@katiecaparco]

omg LOVE that new mug… and the grinch yarn was my favorite from your day 1 advents as well!! looking forward to tomorrow ❤

[@thefriendssister]

Happy Vlogmas Kay! I really enjoyed your relaxed vlog & seeing your basement Christmas decorations🎄I hope you & your loved ones have a peaceful holiday season ♡ See you tomorrow!

[@brandysears3546]

Sending support, love, and kindness from Lexington MI USA.

[@dianegratcofsky6134]

I love a Homespun House and all the rest! Next year I'm going to get the Homespun House. So fun watching you open your advents!

[@denisewessman1079]

Loving all your advents!!!!! Such an inspiration. ❤congratulations to Austin. Love your pets.

[@heather168]

What a lovely video, thoroughly enjoyed watching. I LOVE the grinch advent color!! All are wonderful but that's my fav.

[@BosomFemme]

This was so lovely to watch ❤ yay advent!

[@lauracurry9917]

I love the music that you’ve chosen. I’m waiting for yarn to cast on my Candy cane socks!

[@allyfain]

Austin... that look... is all like "Mom has to be all extra again for Christmas 🤣" What a great day 1 of Vlogmas Kay🎄🩵✨️

[@RiRiGetsCrafty]

Ohh I love the countdown candle! And I am also doing the freckled whimsy socks 🥰

[@patriciaboughton5501]

Love the Vlogmas idea. My first day of Vlogmas was spent making Christmas Jam😊. I will work on my socks this evening

[@jananselmo9391]

So calming and peaceful to watch your videos. Jesus Calling is a favorite of mine also. I mean why would I get up and read the news on my computer when I can watch Vlogmas!

[@LindaSimpson]

Love the music, so relaxing. Enjoyed the first day of Vlogmas. Have a wonderful day ❤

[@shetlandlace]

Delighted to see Calvin! I have missed him.

[@12cspence]

Love! I’ve never watched a vlogmas before that was so much fun. I got my daughter the Christmas duck advent calendar too!

[@CrazySockLady]

♥️♥️♥️

[@suetupper9162]

Loved this!....and the Grinch yarn!...ohhh mmyyyy....

[@sandyenglund6732]

Loved seeing your pets

[@gaylejoseph6942]

GREAT day 1 of Vlogmas~HAPPY KNITTING! ❤️

[@pindyluwho]

Love the candy cane pattern on your fingernails. Super cute

[@butterflysoar1]

Love, love, love seeing you return to your homemade podcasts! So relaxing to see you pour coffee and be joined by your darling pets. Missed this in your shop. The progress you are making is amazing! Can’t wait to order your new sock pattern. Just a side note, my son owns a jeep and I would like to get him a set of ducks that you showed in this video. Could you put that information out? Thank you, God Bless You!

[@remembrancespottery8222]

I'm behind on advent watching already. I just started yours tonight and got such a little shock when you showed your mug cupboard. I guess I wasnt paying close enough attention to nsmes when I sent out that batch!

[@CrazySockLady]

❤️❤️

[@michellehenderson2773]

Beautiful yarns your going to be busy 😊

[@carolynlambert6989]

🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄

[@ericallerton809]

Thanks Kay!!!that was🙂🙄😂lovely,,, Really enjoyed it all,,,!!! Wow,,,You got alot of advents started!,,! Elaine😍

[@nancyrickenbrode9981]

Nice. Video and fun Packages

[@lena3494]

I wanted to let you know I just finished my first ever sock using your vanilla sock pattern and tutorial on 9inch circulars (and your DK sock pattern because i used DK yarn) and finished the toes on flexi tips. AND I HAVE A SOCK! I never knitted before but it was pretty easy (the heel overall was the hardest part for me). Thank you so much for the tutorial and patterns! I immediately casted on the 2nd one before stopping for today ;) I think i'm hooked now... Take care :D

[@CrazySockLady]

♥️♥️♥️

[@alisonsmith376]

Aren’t 🐈‍⬛ just the greatest?! 💙

[@knitty781]

Pretty colors, Kay. I love Polka Dot Creek. It's a great company. Can't wait to see your socks. I put a note in my planner to look for those next year. I'd love to get one for my daughter and myself. How is Wyatt enjoying wrestling? What's his weight class?

[@debdouglas7345]

Thank you for another great video 😊❤

[@marilynderochie1007]

❤️😊

[@PrayedKnots]

Such a nice video. I remember teaching my three boys to drive, what an experience! What is that duck you pulled out? My daughter in law has quite a rubber duck collection. That would be a perfect gift for her.

[@joycepastore3860]

You pick the best advents!! I have resisted purchasing them as I don’t really have much of a use for all those little minis. But also, I have purchased minis in the past and sometimes the yarn is stiff and cheap. And I prefer soft squishy minis, like alpaca, or a cashmere blend. Which would you recommend that are very soft?

[@CrazySockLady]

All of the advent calendars I’ve ever gotten have been soft and squishy ♥️

[@Knitterbug]

I’m pretty sure that Polka Dot Creek is different from That Yarn Habit. Both are Canadian Dyers, but I am 99% sure they are different. Just want to make sure that Tara gets credit for her gorgeous advent calendar! I didn’t see Polka Dot Creek in your Advents.

[@thefriendssister]

I think Kay mentioned in her vlog right before this one that her advent was made up of a bunch of different Canadian dyers but it was put together by Polka Dot Creek ☺

[@CrazySockLady]

I mentioned in the 11/30 Vlogmas that the polka dot creek one is made up of different Canadian yarn dyers but was put together by polka dot creek. I did show that yarn habit label in this vlog so that everyone could see that is who the day 1 yarn was by. But this was put together by polka dot creek. That is why I just say polka dot creek grinch advent.

[@Knitterbug]

@@CrazySockLady oh! I’m sorry, I missed that vlog so missed that distinction. Thank you for your response!

[@Knitterbug]

@@thefriendssister I completely missed that vlog. 😬 Thank you!

[@Jan34]

Hey there I’m new to your channel I love the crazy sucks

[@heatherleask3752]

Love your vlogmas! I got into the advent socks because of you three years ago and learned to knit socks. Pleased to be knitting again this year and think of women all over the world doing them. #TCKAdvent2022 are you doing a pair for your MIL?

[@melissalampman7214]

Kay, I think you started from the wrong end,or else I did, it said to cast on from the blue? For the cozy knitter socks,? I don’t know?...,I was nervous about that, take care,Melissa.

[@CrazySockLady]

Hmmm maybe I did! I don’t mind though. 😂

[@patriciaboughton5501]

How do you have time for all this knitting! I am looking forward to knitting two at a timesocks with the 40" needle. My question to you is": why are you not using that yourself?

[@CrazySockLady]

I knit every second that I can. For socks I use whatever method I want to do when I cast on. ❤️

[@DelightKnits]

Just the corners of the brownies 😂Do your boys like the edge pieces too?

[@CrazySockLady]

Yes! I actually hid these in the fridge from Wyatt 🫣😂🤫

[@vickinestinghearts9367]

R u wearing Red Aspen nails?? Beautiful❣️🎄

[@CrazySockLady]

Nope, I get my nails done at a local nail salon. ♥️♥️

[@itsrainingyarn]

Where can I get them needles you are using for your socks? I don’t like dpn and not a fan of magic loop for socks. Them needles are perfect for socks.

[@CrazySockLady]

I have them linked in the amazons storefront. Link below the video. They are 9” circulars.

[@chentifj]

Oh I know this is SO random, but where are your dishwashing gloves from?

[@CrazySockLady]

Just Kroger ☺️

[@Roanoke-Deb]

Would you kindly link the pattern for the Anthology Throw? Thanks!

[@CrazySockLady]

Project pages are linked below and you can find the pattern linked within that. ♥️

[@serendipitousknitter2242]

I love your vlogmas videos. Did I hear you say that is your cozy knitter advent skein with the teal/turquoise color and then a pinkish? My cozy knitters first color is a perwinkle…are there different ones?

[@CrazySockLady]

I have a freckled whimsy and a cozy knitter. ♥️

[@jeanbeicher2420]

I love the vlogmas. I really enjoy seeing the daily updates and yarn advents. But please. I really don’t want to listen to Muzak cover overs. It’s like sitting in a hotel lobby or on an elevator. Sorry I just would rather listen to what you say and hear you tell your thoughts and ideas

[@CrazySockLady]

Vlogmas usually isn’t a normal podcast where someone talks the entire length of the video. Vlogmas is a daily vlog showing snippets of a persons life throughout their day. Music is just part of the nature of a Vlog. I can’t talk throughout the entirety of my day through every little snippet. If you prefer to watch something where I’m talking the whole video you may wait for regular episodes to come back after December. ♥️

[@jeanbeicher2420]

I understand. But when you open the advents it would be nice to actually see you open them. Like opening a present it’s nice to see your reaction and hear your thoughts rather than the music.

[@sandyenglund6732]

Loved seeing your pets
