In this video I’m chatting through a fun little mix of yarn haul goodness, what I’m currently testing, and yes… a story that’s honestly kind of gruesome 😳. If you love seeing what yarn I’m bringing into the craft room (and why I picked it), you’re in the right place. I also talk about the patterns I’ve got on my hook right now—plushie-style, of course—and what I’m noticing as I work through them. I share the designers and links for the makes I’m working on, including the Sakura Cherry Blossom Bear, Clover the Carrot Farmer, Leo the Leopard Gecko, and a heads-up about Raisin the Raccoon. This one is very much a “come hang out with me” kind of video—yarn, tests, market-prep brain, and real-life crafty chat all rolled together. If you’re looking for plushie inspiration, pattern leads, and a cozy check-in with a fellow crocheter, this episode has you covered.
