Thanks for taking a few minutes. That looks like a popular place. Does the ship offer regional specials at meals based on where you are along with other fare? Glad you've been able to find a few moments to crochet. Enjoy the remainder of your trip and safe travels home 😊

Nice to see you-armchair travel is good for me at the moment! Happy sailing 🛳️!

Thank you for making time for us❤❤❤❤

This came through great. Loved this video!!!

Yarn is an awesome souvenir 🧶

This pattern is gorgeous I like the colors you made them I'm going to watch you again and then I'm going to try thank you for showing us

I accidentally pulled out the first part that was already done 😢 how can I start it again? Been wanting to do this for so long

I'm glad you made it. I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time now. Would love to see pictures and any videos of the boat or places you'll see. The European cruise down the river is on my bucket list❤ Take care.❤❤❤

Hi, Ellen! Thumbs up from across the pond! Hope you enjoy the rest of your vacation! 😻

Bonjour Ellen when I was in college I went to school in Stasbourg for a year. Beautiful city. I hope you saw the cathedral. Alsatian is a mashup between French and German. I once had my change counted out to me in German. Enjoy the rest of your trip. Au revoir.

You didn't do anything wrong with your stitch count. It was already 15 on the blue. The gray & red was 13.

Thank you so much for this video. Im a left handed crocheted and find it difficult to read the graphs and basically work in reverse.😞

Enjoyed watching your creative mind at work!

Thanks😊

Have a safe and wonderful trip! Prayers for you dad that his health gets back on track.

I’m gonna use this to try and make a parasol lol

Praying for your requests.

Now that you hopefully made it to your destination, I hope you're enjoying your travels, relaxing, eating marvelous food and drinking in the local sights😊 I look forward to seeing a few glimpses into your experiences and hearing about your activities if you're able to share. As long as you have your passport, a credit card, yarn, adequate footwear for walking and clean clothes you're well prepared. Bon voyage 👋👍❤

Have a wonderful and safe trip Ellen🤗🤗🤗

Good morning y’all and happy Friday!!

Those are some nice colors and what looks like pretty squishable yarn to pack. Remember though, the most valuable use of your time will be to enjoy every moment of your vacation

Hmnmm. 'Wondering what the other side looks like. You might have shown it and I didn't catch it. Also (just my personal preference), the background or backdrop would probably work better if it were PLAIN. What we "students" really want to see (!!!) is the WORK in progress--not some mishmash of a previous crochet project. Again, IMO.

When we went to Australia, I learned to only pack a couple of balls of yarn. The one skein beanie would look lovely with the yak yarn❤

Is yak extra soft? Something around the face or neck maybe.

Thanks!

Even though I'm awake and actually on my tablet, I still manage to miss the Live😢 Can't understand how I don't see the pop-up:-( Funny about what sticks with us over time. Since Nate's in a whole other stage of life, I wonder if these are still a focus with him. My first reaction was "well, he's not retired and spending whole seasons in different homes, or he can afford a housesitter for those "living things"😅 In a way, I suppose it's like how crocheting changes during your life. When I was much younger I did quite a bit of thread crocheting, simply because I was so fascinated watching the beauty of intricate patterns becoming something useful. Although I still appreciate this, I am no longer able to use my hands this way, so I've had to change both materials and pattern choices. And the more different designers I become familiar with the more I see how crochet is still changing. It makes me remain interested and hope that my hiatus isn't permanent and I will be able to get back to making things. 🙏

Great tutorial, I could see this as an ear warmer. Climbing roses, clematis,vor morning glory. Have a great day Ellen. Hugs 🤗🤗

Very cool and nice clear directions, as always. 👍🏻

Thoughts on chair seat cover: A tapestry cloth could work (in a simple design) to give the fabric substance and strength. Or a piece in soothing colors done in waistcoat stitch should be strong in the right material. (Maybe a fade using several natural wool colors) Not knowing size, shape and how it would be applied to the chair limits my ideas😅

"Have a relaxing and valuable use of your time." I think it's subjective. Right along with Beauty is in the eye of the Beholder. Valuable to one isn't necessarily valuable to another, but it is important to our soul to feel we've accomplished what we needed to do, to have created something with our own hands. I'm sure it's Wednesday where you are, Happy WIP Wednesday! 🧶

I've picked up knitting again (with --gasp-- two needles!) and I had some down time at work today to make good progress on my hat :)

Thanks so much for your words of wisdom today. It gave me a new way to look at it and has me feeling very positive. I'm definitely going to try it.❤

Im just loving double ended tunisian crochet!!! Just cant find enough patterns!! I love the 2 patterns ive seen of yours!! ❤❤❤🎉 You are an amazing teacher, you explain so clearly and concise!!! Thank you! ❤

Belated good morning and thumbs up, Ellen! I just saw this as I was busy doing laundry and other fun stuff! 👍

Thank you so much! I have never crocheted before and I am learning, alongside my 11 yr old daughter, as we make a wooble together. She thought she had made a mistake. I undid it for her to start again but by accident took out the knot holding the starting loop together. Your video has saved the day. Thank you. :)

Thanks for the video! The instructions are clear & I can finally understand how to make adjustable loops! I've been practicing the technique by making granny squares. ☺

Thank you Ellen for this video. I have been crocheting 50 plus years and still struggle to this day with patterns. It upsets me that designers have no empathy for us lefties. Like we don't exist but we do and WE BUY THEIR PATTERNS and so many will not have a clue on how to assit us. This video was magnificent! Not only showing how to work the stiches but how to cast off which is eaqualy important. Bless your heart for helping the south paws!!! (((hugs)))

Hi Ellen nice to see you .....i have been away taking time off....its good to be back....

Maybe you could take your new Tunisian stitch pattern book and play around with that. If we don't see you tomorrow have a fun, relaxing time at the lake.

I can help proofread too.

🧶💜

I know maybe this is a big ask, but what would be fun is if you could make a quick 5 minute recorded video showing your Lake spot. I enjoyed the video you did outside. When I was a kid, my grandparents lived at the Lake of the Ozarks and seeing pictures and videos of lakes just brings back such great memories. ❤

Rock 'n roll hair works for you!❤😉

I would be happy to proofread your new book. I have a red pen. 😂
