Great yarns!!! So pretty!

Can’t wait for all the cool things you will do with all this beautiful yarn❣️

Mohair and lace weight yarns knit (or crocheted) on large diameter needles (or hooks) look really cool (they look underwhelming until you block them). I love the garment examples you show - these yarns will be so perfect. Keep in mind that crochet uses a LOT more yarn than knitting so buying boutique yarns is very, very expensive,

If you're in a city, I suggest checking if there's a fabric recycle location. My local will give you 5lb of new yarn in the form of never bought sweaters and hats for $5. It makes patchwork quilts almost as much about frogging the machine knit as making the new work.

🤔I like the idea of chaos crochet. Just imagine a stuffed ball with chaos crochet and massive black dots for eyes 😂. One day, I'd love to go from raw either cotton or silk cocoons, create thread, weave it, then create something with the fabric. Oooo the scarlet mccaw. I love the drastic values in it 👀. 9:36 I wonder how that would look with the first mohars maybe felt punched into it? Modern day Arcade/ Bowling Alley floor 😂. 12:50 Personally, I have found knitting to be easier with atypical yarn versus crochet. With crochet, I can't find the loops and it ends up looking weird. That may be why it's more common in knitting than crochet? I'd love to see what chaos you create with it for crocheting ^^. 14:55 I know socks but that's boring. The darn good yarn sub does sound like a good idea 🤔. Maybe after I pair down my project list... Dragonair- I managed to put sequins on the other eye. That was a pain because I used super glue to keep the ends in place. Bad idea for while you're working on it. Had to use a combo of my pliars and my bees wax to get it through. I also solidified which iris technique I'm doing. Next is just doing the black area of the 2nd eye now. Other crafts- This weekend, I got a yarn caker for like $17 on amazon and caked **all** of my yarn. Iiii alsoo maaaay have caved for the 50%+ off yarn sale at Joanns and ordered all the yarn for the stained glass blanket. Do I have a design? Nope. I do know I want it bilaterally symmetrical since I want to create a weighted blanket and it will be a giant scene, no symmetry at all. Note- If you use or cake a hank of yarn, at LEAST wrap it around some dining chair legs. I had a hank that was about half way caked and turned into a MASSIVE knot. Took 3.5 hours and 3 cuts to fully undo. 6:45 Yeah, I was sneezing all weekend from the lint 😂. Oh, if you get one, don't use your wrist. Keep your wrist straight and use your elbow and shoulder. Otherwise, it will hurt very quickly I also may have hopped on fb marketplace and found someone selling an embroidery machine for about $360. Considering they usually go for about $2,000... yeah. I'm picking up later today. Bad timing though because I have to do a fresh windows install cause I've been having weird issues with discord and fusion. Nothing's helping. So I need to backup all my data. I needed to get some new ssds because I didn't have enough space on my current backup for that OH, I picked up the tops for my desk 👀. Basically, this desk has become a meme in my friend group because I've been working on it for about 2-3 years now. I don't think it will be finished this month, but there is progress being made. Next purchases would be the leveling feet, which is weirdly expensive and probably some odds and ends. soon. soon.

i loveee fullmohairalchemist too! their work really inspires me :)
