In Live Chat #72, I’m hanging out with you in real time and doing what I love most—building up the crochet community. This one is all about getting to know each other better, so I run through a set of fun icebreaker questions and let the chat lead the conversation. If you’re newer to my lives, this is a really easy one to jump into because there’s no pressure to “perform”—just come as you are, grab your project, and talk yarn with us. I also share a few ways you can stay connected with me outside of the live: my Facebook community and Discord are where a lot of the day-to-day crochet talk happens, and it’s a great place to find crochet friends who actually get it. And of course, I mention some of the behind-the-scenes tools and links I use (like StreamYard for lives, my favorite crochet tools list, and my Amazon lists) in case you’re trying to get organized, upgrade your setup, or just want ideas for what to try next. The big takeaway from this chat is simple: the crochet is great, but the community is the best part—so come hang out and let’s get to know each other.
