Hi friends, I hope you enjoy the video. This is actually a repost of a video I shared a year or so ago that I’ve fixed the sound quality on . I’m currently away on vacation in Venice , Italy with my daughter. 🇮🇹😀 I see in the comments that the link no longer works for the caddy. What a shame. 😮 I did a quick search and see that it might be available on Amazon. I’ll add a link if so. My apologies on that. 💕

Perfect video for me at this time! I am usually so organized with my crochet, but my craft room has exploded and it is very stressful to see so many started projects. This will be so helpful in finishing those projects that my heart is no longer excited about (right now), but I know will be thrilled when it is completed. The wallflower blanket is gorgeous and I love the telephone timer!!

I want to revisit them all & this will help tonnes!

Then cross stitch on the panels. This is the scary part,now that I think I can do the crochet part.i gave the list of yarn to my son ,because he dosent think I know how. He think I will mess up the computer. (I'm not good with a computer ) He knows everything. I got the yarn today nissing a color but have extra a other color.
