Let’s talk about how our Craft — knitting, crochet, or otherwise — helps us cope with things like chronic physical or mental health issues.
Make sure to find some time this weekend to care for yourself! 👊🏼💗

The March YarnYAY! Box crochet project is 𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘵, a crochet, boomerang shawlette. The shape is more commonly seen in knitted pieces, but I love it because if you want the piece to be larger, you just keep working it in the established pattern.
𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘵 is worked with a sweet, as-to-go edging and optional, appliquéd, chain-florets. I designed it to be worn as shown here, scarf-style, but with the option to go full-shawl. You do you!
𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗼𝘆𝗮 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗼 𝗟𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 — 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘁 𝗝𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗿 — 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗬𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗬𝗔𝗬! 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗕𝗼𝘅 (𝘁𝗮𝗽, 𝗴𝗼 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝗯𝗶𝗼, 𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝗬𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗬𝗔𝗬.𝗰𝗼𝗺)
MODEL FUN FACT:
The gorgeous human modeling this shawlette, Kat Roberts, was the main featured young woman (swipe to see) in the infamous 1992, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dog video “Nothing But a G Thang”. That video didn’t age well, but man, she sure did! 🤩

We are so excited that our friend and YarnYAY! Design Manager, @juliamadill's Overprint Bag design was published in the Spring '23 issue of @pompommag !
We love the graphic look, and environmentally conscious purpose of this crochet tote so much, that we've put together two colorful, Montoya Merino Light kits to celebrate!
Go to the YarnYAY! shop link in my @vickiehowell bio to learn more AND get a 20% off discount for the digital issue of the magazine.
Oh, and keep your eyes open for a crochet-along, coming on 3/29!

The YarnYAY! 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩 𝘉𝘰𝘹'𝘴 featured shade of 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘰𝘺𝘢 𝘔𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘰 𝘓𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 (Desert Jasper), feels right at home with this holiday, so 𝘄𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗮 𝗯𝗼𝘅 𝘁𝗼 𝗧𝗪𝗢 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀! See below for details.
Side note (that likely no one by me will care about): Giving away hanks on St Patrick's Day, of my Montoya Merino yarn feels appropriate as my dad used to always say that my brother and I were Spirish (Spanish + Irish). Thank you for listening.

Am I the only one who finds it a cruel twist of fate that the first time this show is on the air in my country I’m going to miss it because I’m on a plane coming to be on the show?
See you tomorrow.

Bummer!…I couldn’t find it on my DishNet guide…I did manage to tape an old one on DIY. Boo hoo!
Great show…way to go!!
Good for you and your crew!!!!!
Yaaaaa,hoooooo! I get a whole hour of KG! It’s on HGTV just before it’s on DIY. Does it get any better than this? Oh yeah, we get to see our favorite Yarn Harlot and all her green socks on KG soon.
I diddo the lady who is excited that I get a full hour of KG now! Way to go Vickie!

I think it’s great that KG is coming to HGTV. A lot of people don’t get DIY, for whatever reason, so this will definitely broaden your viewing audience.
(Oh, and it looks like you’ve got duplicate posts here. Hate it when that happens). 🙂
I have been DVR-ing the episodes on HGTV. I’m so glad I actually get to see you now instead of hearing about it from my mom who is blessed enough to have DIY!
Full hour of Knitty Gritty a day. What more could I ask for….2 hours a day LOL
that sucks about being in school, being unable to watch knitty gritty 🙁
wahoo!!! now i can watch knitty gritty too!!! wahooo!!!! and, i will get to see our purrfectly catchy sock blockers on when cat and scout are on!!!
oh i dvr your show every day from diy because i have a 3 month old who dictates when i can actually pay attention. I love the projects, and have made several.
much love!!!!
