Will Premier Plush Yarn Work For Plushies? --Will It Ami?

[@OliverJanes]

What an adorable teddy bear!

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

I’m so thankful to have this opportunity to pair up with you! I LOVE your project sooo much!

[@Tfwcrochet]

Thank you so much Shannon. This was such a fun idea!

[@ShannonTalksYarn]

@@TfwcrochetI loved it! ❤

[@kfraser4344]

A little yellow pompom on the hat would be perfect! I love him!

[@Tfwcrochet]

That would be so cute 😍

[@stephaniecrosson1538]

This yarn is listed on Dollar Tree's website, but is currently unavailable to ship from the warehouse. If it does become available again, one would have to order a case of 48 (uneven assortment of the colors). You did get all 5 colors that are part of this set.

[@susancoleman4833]

Wowwwwe that's such an adorable bear 🐻 ❤

[@luck-e42]

Danny the dapper bear. If I had made it, I'd put a pompom on the hat. But I like pompoms, so that's just a me thing. Such a cute and fluffy bear. I may have to keep an eye out for this yarn. Maybe make a cute spider out of it.

[@Cinder.kelric]

i'd love to see a christmas themed bear o: seems like the red, yellow, and white would look good

[@Tfwcrochet]

Great idea!

[@AnimalLover101195]

Super cute!!!!!!!❤

[@barbied4473]

That is soooo cute!! I have to check out the dollar tree near me. Thank you for another wonderful video!

[@justclaycrochet]

Oh my goodness he is absolutely adorable, what an amazing job you did. I love him. He looks like a Jasper or Timothy ❤ I have Covid at the moment and your video definitely cheered me up ❤

[@Tfwcrochet]

Awh I’m so sorry you have Covid. Glad to keep you company though. Feel better soon!

[@justclaycrochet]

@Tfwcrochet aww thank you so much ❤️

[@MissEmmyJay]

I’m working on a cat ear beanie! Double stranded worsted yarn so I can use up my huge stash. 😂 I have also made a bear (I only found Pooh colors at my local DT) with this yarn! Except I paired it with a regular worsted yarn so I could see the stitches.. But next time I’ll use a thinner yarn to pair it so it isn’t as noticeable. Fantastic video to crochet to! ❤❤❤

[@Tfwcrochet]

Cat ear beanies! So fun!

[@starred56]

I was making a Gummy Bear. New to me. I've tried the plush yarn, jury is still out! Thank you

[@daschuhow]

I don’t celebrate z Halloween but I put up the fall colors, pumpkins, straw etc until Thanksgiving then after Thanksgiving we decorate for Christmas. I love Christmas so much I left the tree up and decorated it for Easter one year!

[@mountainjune]

My guess as to where you live, well, as a NorCal girl myself, you don't seem to have an identifiable accent, so west coast. Maybe another Cali girl. That guess is also based on the wind your area is experiencing and the trees outside, but I might be dead wrong, LOL. I also can't say the word 'Outside' my little dogs would go nuts. 🐿🐿🥜🥜I found you because of Shannon, I haven't made many Amigurumi. Just a few pieces, a football two football seasons ago, x4 Baby Yodas, back when their was no Merch for the Mandalorian. I made one for myself, and... then a few people wanted one too. 🙄 Loved your video!

[@Tfwcrochet]

I wish I was in California. I’m from Oklahoma. 😬

[@mountainjune]

@Tfwcrochet Every state has its ups and downs, Our autumn has another name, it's called fire season. I had to be evacuated once already this season, fortunately my apartment wasn't harmed and I was able to return home. You're from the Midwest, so tornadoes 🌪 instead of Earthquakes. 😉 🧶🪡🧵

[@stephaniechaparro]

I have this same yarn, also in brown with the intent to do a bear. But it's been sitting, collecting dust. 😅 I'm fairly new to crochet. I tried chenille for the first time a few days ago and was unsuccessful, so I figured I'd fail with this plush yarn, too. Lol. 🙃 Your teddy came out adorable! Edit: Got to the end of the video. I was crocheting the hair for my very first doll!

[@Tfwcrochet]

It is definitely a learning curve. You’ll get there! I really didn’t start loving chenille and fur until the past couple years and I’ve been crocheting for ages.

[@selinamargetts6720]

So cute! Looks like a Jacques to me lol

[@PheonixCheeseStudios]

I recently used fluffy yarn! I made a bag and the "wrong" side is the side out since its so fluffy and soft! I cant wait to use this yarn since i havent used it yet! My bag is made out of the fuzzy friends lion brand yarn (its discontinued along side the rest of the sesame street yarn(

[@rosesteinmacher5632]

Should make your other daughter a teddy bear but with the colors different than in different rows than what that one is if it was red you should make it blue if it was the gold then you should make it a different color just so that the girls both can have one make the scarf for the next bear red and the hat gold That's what you should do with the rest of your yarn Love your videos

[@haileylimon9410]

I was crocheting a tapestry fish 😅

[@Tfwcrochet]

Cute! I have never really done tapestry crochet.

[@squitten.]

Currently working on a knit bottom up cowl vest in wool ease thick and quick in the color Kale on 15mm needles :3

[@mrswendyrob]

Your bear is adorable! As I watched this video, I was weaving in the ends of a knit sweater for my son. I finished 3 sweaters in the past month (some had been started ages ago), so I’m feeling pretty good. Ready to swap the needles for a hook now though!

[@Tfwcrochet]

That’s amazing! I failed on my first crochet cardigan lol. I have to start a new one soon.

[@LyraStitchery]

I love Hannah Alonzo!

[@Tfwcrochet]

Same! Her influencer insanity series is my fave.

[@LyraStitchery]

@@Tfwcrochet you should check out her MLM Horror story series. Those get wild.

[@stacytwite3851]

I’m working on a graduation gift. I gift the seniors in my band and choirs an Afghan at our last concert in the spring. I don’t do amigurumi but I love your reviews!

[@Tfwcrochet]

Glad you still Iike my videos even though you don’t do Ami. Thats amazing that you make your seniors afghans. What a beautiful gift.

[@melodymalone4076]

I love how the bear turned out!! Hes so adorable!! Makes me wish and hope they have this yarn in a gray to make an elephant cause I wanna make a cuddley little elephant with a scarf!! I always assume you are in Illinois or in a state by the Great Lakes. I also couldn't help but snicker at "Premier is one of those companies where they always say they are a size bigger than they actually are" cause I have a dirty mind and the quote out of context is too funny to me.

[@Tfwcrochet]

A lot of people think Midwest! I’m actually from Southern Oklahoma! Omg I thought that as I was editing and giggled. I wasn’t sure if I should point it out but it was quite funny.

[@melodymalone4076]

@Tfwcrochet Its the lack of accent that makes me think midwest but Oklahoma checks out as you mentioned heat in the fall. It was such a good bit and im glad I got a snicker out of it while at work.

[@maudorsano]

Your little bear is wonderful! Even though I failed miserably the two times I tried chenille yarns, I'm tempted to try again. If I were to make this, though, I would use the furry yarn for the body but regular chenille (or even acrylic) for the clothing. Thanks for another enjoyable video.

[@Tfwcrochet]

Glad you liked the video! I think that sounds like a great idea for a project!

[@ATurtle24]

I had to work the evening of Halloween. I have dressed up at work in the past but didn't this year, just made sure my Halloween socks could be seen. My husband got to take the kids trick or treating. I'm practicing new stitches with a washcloth made with dollar tree cotton.

[@elizabethmoore2853]

I made a cat out of that. It was impossible to work with, because I could not see the stitches. I matched the color with regular yarn and doubled it up. That worked well.

[@Tfwcrochet]

@@elizabethmoore2853 I’ve heard of doing that! Shannon did that on her video. I want to try it sometime.

[@jenbrooke403]

On Halloween, I made a costume for my 19 year old son, who told me at noon that day that he needed a Woody costume for his girlfriend’s sorority party. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I then called my dad and thanked him for all the times he stayed up late with me helping me with all the things I always waited til the last minute to do. lol I have no idea why I’ve thought this, but for some reason I’ve always thought you were from the Midwest. I don’t really hear an accent, though, so I’m not sure why I’ve been thinking that. lol Your little bear is so sweet! Your girls will have to have joint custody. 😉

[@Tfwcrochet]

That’s so funny. I waited til the last second to do a DIY element on my older daughters costume and we ended up having to scrap it. But it was my fault not hers lol. Not Midwest but maybe Midwest adjacent? There’s debate over what section of the country it actually qualifies as but I’m from Oklahoma!

[@jenbrooke403]

@ Oh cool! I was thinking either Kansas/Nebraska, or Iowa/Ohio. I’m from Georgia, in a suburb of Atlanta. 🍑

[@Carlaiscrafty553]

He looks like a “McFurson the Bear” to me 😂 Very cute. I hope to find this yarn, our dollar tree stores tend to not get the plush or fur yarn, they did get the worsted premier big skeins.

[@Tfwcrochet]

McFurson is adorable! You really just have to get lucky. We have multiple dollar trees in my area and some have lots while some have none. It’s so strange

[@rhondapham2219]

New subscriber here. Totally enjoying your videos. Also, I love the color of your eyes. 😍

[@Tfwcrochet]

Hi!!! And thank you!!!

[@Nadinecrochets]

I have been wanting to try premier bunny. Wondering how this compares because it looks similar

[@Tfwcrochet]

I didn’t think to compare it to that but I like this one better. It’s isn’t as thick but I like the texture better. Little bunny feels more like a shag rug and this feels more like a fluffy stuffed toy should imo. And little bunny snapped on me while working on it.

[@Nadinecrochets]

@Tfwcrochet I am so glad you told me. Going to delete it from my cart

[@tiannagraham5210]

i spoiled myself to the answer of where you’re from but my guess was going to be somewhere in the southwest, maybe new mexico or the west side of texas. i’m an arizona girlie so i kinda recognized your accent/bit of a lack of accent as being from this area so i was kinda correct lol also i was still working on my wool ease aire scarf but i switched to a plush bunny i’m making for a memory care facility as part of a collection of items i’m giving them!

[@ElainefromPenguinPlaceCrafts]

I was working on some beaded hedgehogs. I'm hoping they'll sell at my show this Saturday. I need to get to Dollar Tree to get more beads!

[@Tfwcrochet]

Beaded hedgehogs!?! That sounds amazing!

[@ElainefromPenguinPlaceCrafts]

@Tfwcrochet I put a pic on my community tab last night. I'm stopping at Dollar Tree today to get more pony beads!

[@JellieGHope]

Oo, I have 2 skeins of the dark blue collecting dust. Maybe this will help me figure out what to do

[@Tfwcrochet]

Shannon likes to pair hers with an acrylic which I think is genius! Hope you find something to do with it. Such a pretty color

[@CharlyMane-s4g]

Premier has 5weight called little bunny. I also bought all colors when I first saw it in the store. It was my first time using it. You can’t see the stitches and it’s hard to feel it too because it’s a bit thin. If you want to try furry yarn the little bunny is better than this. It’s softer and thicker too.

[@dogchyk]

Adorable!!! And... i think you are from the midwest.. Indiana or Ohio?

[@Tfwcrochet]

Midwest seems to be a popular answer. I’m from Oklahoma actually. I consider us southern but there’s debates about what part of the country to officially call us

[@BexagonBestagon]

Love that you did a collab and made an adorable bear! Did your kids name the bear?

[@Tfwcrochet]

They didn’t but they’re still fighting over him 😅

[@ayanadixon4763]

Your bear needs a bunny friend .❤

[@Tfwcrochet]

I agree!

[@LynneRedick-su1ji]

So cute! I will have to try that yarn, for sure. My guess about where you’re from would be Ohio. (?). Also, what is your dogs name? He’s so sweeet

[@Tfwcrochet]

I’m from another O state: Oklahoma! That’s Lily! She’s my ever present side kick. I think she’s been in all my videos at this point. And yes she’s sweet and a bit sassy. 😆

[@LynneRedick-su1ji]

I didn’t pick up an Oklahoma accent 😀

[@CharleneBryant-kz6gm]

Can you create a Shetland Sheepdog? This could be cute in a sable, white and blk sheltie.

[@Tfwcrochet]

Awh I used to have a sheltie as a kid. If I had black fluffy yarn that would be so cute

[@LyraStitchery]

I am actually working on an ami. I am making a tiny dragon for my mom.

[@Tfwcrochet]

How sweet 😍

[@artsandarthropods]

I can not handle it being winter yet lol

Named Ted the dollar tree bear

[@allycantspell8111]

i dressed up as jeannette (a chipette) w a group of people and then i went as pikachu and my bf went as Ash! I rlly like the halloween vibes too ;/ i feel like the vibes get SO good the week of and then suddenly theyre gone

[@Tfwcrochet]

Omg ash and pikachu. So cute. I’m still soaking in the fall vibes as much as humanly possible even if spooky season is over 😭

[@gaylewinds4808]

I guessing you're either from Oklahoma or Texas. There's a little bit of an accent but it's not full on drawl. ETA My first thought was to name your bear after a well-known train station, like Paddington, but Grand Central Station the Bear really doesn't have that much ring to it, and I don't really know of any other well-known train stations.

[@Tfwcrochet]

You got it spot on!! I’m from Southern Oklahoma. I feel like it comes out with certain words or when I’m tired.

[@gaylewinds4808]

@@Tfwcrochet Yay!

[@squeekee35]

I don't hear an accent. But I don't have one either. Maybe the Pacific Northwest somewhere

[@Tfwcrochet]

Oh that makes it seem like I have a cool girl vibe lol. I’m actually from Oklahoma but I try to pretend like I’m cool lol

[@tamraplautz2611]

Halloween is a 3 day Holiday in our religion. Oct 30,31 and Nov 1. all Saints Day

[@graceobregon1599]

I’m hearing a hint of an Oklahoma accent.

[@Tfwcrochet]

You got it 🤗

I guess it’s a personal preference thing but I prefer this yarn to little bunny
