In this video I’m taking you along to the crochet retreat with me—everything I made, the behind-the-scenes hangouts, and all the cozy little moments that make these trips so inspiring. I share the patterns I worked on while we were there, plus fun retreat footage like the plushie exchange, meeting YouTube friends in person, and even a quick house tour so you can see the space we were crafting in. It’s very much a “real life crochet business owner” kind of vlog—projects in progress, chatting, laughing, and soaking up that creative energy. I also have a big business update: my Magical Market Ponies (Unicorn & Pegasus) pattern is officially released, and I walk through what’s included and why I’m so excited about it. On top of that, I announce the giveaway winner, kick off a brand-new giveaway for this week, and share a personal update on my husband’s recovery after surgery. It’s a mix of crochet, community, and the real-life stuff happening behind my handmade business—because that’s what we’re building together.
