Crochet Chitchat Episode 4: Yarn Review Hello Gorgeous Sedona

[knitpickyknits-blog]

A fun pair of socks made in Tunisian Crochet. These are so squishy and warm and comfy!! I love how fast they work up and how I only need one skein for size 8 or smaller. Even for sizes 8.5+ I only need a few yards over a skein! Perfect for a contrast toe or heel. These are a gift, so someone will get a swish mail surprise soon! #crochet #crochetsocks #tunisiancrochet #tunisianknitstitch #handmadesocks #knitpickyknits https://www.instagram.com/p/BxdSzYXhM_m/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6opnkkz2pxff

Happy day! I got part 2 of my flower granny blanket uploaded and it's available on my YouTube channel. It is always a challenge for me to complete any project #ENTP so I'm celebrating this one even more because the past 2 weeks were so hard. Focus and keep the end in sight, and results will come! Yay for #finishedobjects and #smilingthrutears! #flowergrannysquares #crochetvideo #crochettutorial #knitpickyknits https://www.instagram.com/knitpickyknits/p/Bxa7qyxBR4J/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bpavmtz40c4o

It was a tough week at my house. My ex-partner passed away suddenly, and my kids are devastated. My dear friend Joni happened to be here visiting and was the perfect balm to our spirits. I made her some wool socks to take home and even managed to make a ravelry project page. These socks are green and gold, after the Robert Frost poem. "Nothing gold can stay. Stay gold Ponyboy" Indeed, stay gold Joni girl, we love you so much! #brokenheart #losingafather #woolsocks #warmtheheart #naturesfirstgreenisgold #nothinggoldcanstay #staygoldponyboy https://www.instagram.com/knitpickyknits/p/BxH3mhUhOLr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1koi8xil5xwi2

It's finally done! Yaaaaay! This little birthday/Easter blanket begged to get done, and yet I kept putting it off. Why?? Because I made a video!! 🤗🤗I wanted to make sure and capture all the steps as I created it, so sometimes work had to wait! Today it's done and I have photos to share. Swipe to see all its cuteness! Soon I'll put up the video. I just have to figure out how many parts to break it up into and get it finalized. It's almost anticlimactic to work so hard and just have the photo at the end, ne c'est pas? #eastercrochet #flowersquares #crochetinpastels #hardworkpaysoff #finishedobject #crochetbabyblanket #madewithlove #babalovesyou #crochet #hooked #knitpickyknits https://www.instagram.com/knitpickyknits/p/BwXYHn9BRa0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ttkay02sx4j5

Short socks for Farmer I started on our anniversary weekend trip are finally done, wool-washed, blocked, and dried! They were fun to make because I used Juniper Moon Farm "Moonshine Trios : Superfine Alpaca, Silk, & Wool". This yarn has a right slant (Z) so it is AWESOME for crochet!! Frogged it five times and Zero Splitting. Hallelujah! And the striping was fantastic. So fun! #tunisiancrochetintheround #tunisiancrochet #zpliedyarn #madeforcrochet #frogit #socksformyman #junipermoonfarmyarn #moonshinetrios #knitpickyknits https://www.instagram.com/knitpickyknits/p/BwII7d7Bs2k/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ixfdxeol6r28

Farmer took me out for a hot date yesterday: Shearing Day at #djsclassicalpacas - what an awesome day!! We learned so much and it felt amazing to be a part of the work, helping wherever and however we could. Every job matters! We are so grateful for the wonderful experience and thankful for all the hardworking farms growing amazing fiber animals. #hotdate #alpacas #shearingday #helponthefarm #fiberlove #knitpickyknits https://www.instagram.com/knitpickyknits/p/BvrNiLghSRv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=145ycqok39xx6
