Gary, will see you later on your channel! I am always excited to see your color work, I find it inspiring!

We love Gary !! He’s just the sweetest ! I just love how he combines colors. We love you too !! Crochet Queen ! ❤❤❤❤. Love the yarns and colors.

kay, I’ve always scratched my head about the obsession around the kislux book totes and their practicality, but this one is adorable!! Congratulations

My grown daughter has 2 axolotls. They don’t do much, lol, but she loves them. They don’t look to be too hard to take care of. My daughter suffered a massive stroke after giving birth to her third son, 2 years ago (at age 31). She is partially paralyzed and manages with them just fine. She has a deep aquarium for them with lots of places for them to hide. Her other critters don’t bother with them.

That blue is the deepest darkest navy I have ever seen. Beautiful 🤩 😁💜

Dogs in back ground and talking. That's awesome. Beautiful yarn.

I'm holding my breath waiting to see what you made out of the new Premier Gradient! (Ombre, lol) ☺

Gary is awesome thank you Crystal for introducing me to him so long ago. The yarn is beautiful.

I love when you break out in songs that you make up on the fly🎶🎵😊

I am always grateful for your gracious honesty in all the yarns you talk about. It helps a lot of us navigate the overwhelming world of "what the heck do I spend my money on!"

Crystal, what an array of beautiful yarns. The pink n orange is my favorite colors together also. I think your favorite of the bunch is the darkest blue.

Hi Crystal. Very Gorgeous yarn! I have to admit that when I decided to go outside of my comfort zone and learn a stitch that I was not familiar with, it was your tutorial that I went to. It was the cable stitch. I love the stitch and the scarf I made with it. Thank you for sharing your amazing skills with us.

Hello Crystal, it’s been awhile, life it gets in the way. Love these yarns, beautiful. The Queen Bee, is a gorgeous color. I see some beautiful hats coming up! Thanks for sharing! Have a wonderful crochet hat day.

I ordered the Premier Anti Pilling Gradient Yarn after watching your review. It came yesterday. Your review was spot on. The colors are gorgeous and it's so soft. I got one each of Teal, Yellow, Sky, Green and Pink Tones. I wanted the Purple too but it was out. Will definitely buy more. Thanks Crystal for your dedication to our yarn world. You are the best.

Axolotl?? I thought that was a Pokémon!!! Wow--always learning new stuff on this channel!! Love ya Crystal

Great haul! Beautiful yarns! My favorite is that midnight blue one! Gorgeous! Wow! Thank you! God Bless. Take care. Love you. ❤️🙏😇

I’ve learned so much about yarn from you. You’re an excellent educator. ❤

The blue in the Chroma reminds me of blue corn. That was my favorite ❤

Had no idea you could get an axolotl as a pet! Wow! Beautiful yarn 🧶

🎉🎉 I love all the yarny goodness! I knew that dark blue was your fave. I'm sorry I don't know anything about ocelots. I know Rose will love whatever you make. Thank you Crystal!🎉🎉

Hi Crystal, just what I needed a yarn video. I worked NY primary yesterday, 16 hours helping people vote. Relaxing today, and knitting, and excited to see new yarn. Wow, really Bag O Day colors for sure. I like allot of brighter colors but, that dark blue would look great with some other blue colors in a gradient scarf or cowl. Really like the twill yarn color, I want to make a cowl or scarf with gold yarn mixed with multi color yarn. Provincial Tweed, really nice color with those flex. Argyle has this gold and multi color yarn I want to make a hat and cowl out of in their Luminous Brooklyn hand dyes yarn. Going to wait till Septembers NYC Yarn Crawl. Man Crystal, you should see some of the ads they have during your video. Just saw an ad for how to remove wrinkles around the mouth geez, just what I need to see at 12:30 am. Oh the spice color is beautiful and like the blend. Wow, now your talking my language, I love bright pink and fuzzy is nice.

Most of the crocheters I follow primarily work with acrylic yarns. It is good to find someone who is comfortable working with natural fibers.

I can't bear the feel of acrylic yarn 😖 gives me the heeby jeebies, especially when it's just washed😬. I like cotton, bamboo or alpaca/silk mix. I don't use wool cuz I can't wear it unfortunately. Kind of limits my scope but there's so many beautiful things to make with the yarns i do like❤

@juliegraham5033 There are certain wools I can bear, merino and ramboullet (spelling?)are fine. I haven't found a lot of the second in commercially available yarn, but lots of good spinning fiber from the Western US and Canada.

You always rock. Thank you. U help me as right now is difficult. U help me take my mind off of it all……😊

Yarn fingers!!!! Love the oceana yarn. I've never heard of an axolotl. Just googled it and its so cute! I can see why Rose wants one!

Hi Crystal 🔮 ☺ 😊 and the bod family. Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience. I have to say that the pink yarns were my favorite but I love them all great taste in yarn. I will be ordering from Knit Picks soon. Thanks again for sharing 😊 😀 🙂 ☺ 🙏 😘

❤❤❤I love your enthusiasm when opening and looking at yarn!!! Keep smiling , yarny friend...😊😊😊

Gary, Urban Yarns is a great guy with great videos!

Love the colour of the Capra yarn, burnt orange is such a beautiful colour. All the colours look wonderfully, great choices.

👋 Crystal! Beautiful selection of yarns. Gotta say I love the Oceana and that it contains "ocean plastic". THAT is the darkest blue I have ever seen. I know you will be going back. lol🫶

I love watching you. I appreciate all that you do. Thank you.

Hi Crystal. I just want you to know I am working on Hats for the homeless population here. Thank you for sharing your wonderful patterns. I know it’s early to start, but not really.

Wow! Me too. They're small and don't take to long. I'm making Crystals moss stitch hats, super easy and fast. Thanks for helping the homeless!😀

The Hawthorne fingering makes wonderful socks and mittens.

Loved the Chroma in fall colors. Definitely not dismal! The blue is for October blue skies! Also loved the Oceania color. A cool idea to blow one color through another color tube.

Axolotl owner here, they are fairly easy under the right conditions. They prefer cold water. Use aquarium sand or leave bottom bare. Never use aquarium gravel with axolotls as they can easily swallow the pebbles causing blockages! They are like little vacuums when they eat lol. Dew worms/earthworms are a great food for them if your pet shop sells them. A 20 gallon long tank would be best for one axolotl if you can find one. Tank length is more important than height. They do come to the surface for a gulp of air. They don’t like a lot of water movement. If the filter causes too much movement try a shower puff in front to slow the flow (I did this with my Spanish ribbed newts) Also, some will say you can keep more than one together but, in my experience it ended deadly & I wouldn’t recommend it. They are adorable neat critters. They can also regrow body parts! One of mine had his leg tore off & eaten by the other 🫣 it was neat watching his new leg grow back. My mistake was letting him back into the tank with the other. He was attacked again & sadly ended up passing away at only a year old.

I agree, Knitpicks customer service is phenomenal!

Pretty, love all the yarnie goodness. Hope you’re having a good night.❤

Another awesome posting. I love Knit Picks. I have bought a lot from them especially their merino wool. Their customer service is the best. I just live them

I don’t know how I missed this video but heard you talk about this yarn on your rerun live so here I am. Just lovely yarn. The darkest blue is your fav I think.

That blue is BEAUTIFUL!!!

Love seeing Doug in the background. Cute.

Hi Crystal. Very pretty yarn. I like the pink fuzzy.

I can't wait for the pattern of the beanie your wearing. I love the pattern and the color!!

The Chroma yarn is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for the review of all those nice yarns

That navy blue is stunning - will look so nice made into a hat ❤

Wowza, beautiful yarn! Dang, I hate that I'm allergic to wool 😢 You chose some gorgeous colors! I love pink & orange together, so I'd have to choose that one as my favorite. Rose will love anything you make for her with it 🩷🧡 Ty Crystal 💞💞💞

I have Woodland Tweed Bare and am knitting a Knit Picks design sweater with cables all over it. It's fun and beautiful. I love how you smell the yarn. I do, too.

P.S. Please make up the pattern for the hat you are wearing. I would love for that to be the first hat I crochet.

I had to pause you to cook dinner, but I have to say that might very well be the best and prettiest box of yarn ever 🥳🤩😍🤩

Love to see your pups....and the yarn of course! 😊

Thank you for sharing all the beautiful yarn!! Truly loved it all, however, that Oceana in the axolotl...love that pink!!! Need to check that out and hey...it's for supporting a good cause. Great reason to say it's a must get!!!

Doug is poising for us!❤❤❤

Hello Crystal. You are so amazing I love everything you do and are doing ❤

beautiful yarn! I love the Queen Bee.

Your fave is probably the darkest blue. I’m midway thru this.

Another enthusiastic yarn unboxing…love it.🥰

Lovely yarn haul. The issue with axolotl is keeping their environment constant. If Iodine is added to their water, which mostly is in our drinking water may cause them to morph into a salamander.

I like Knit Picks. I knit a lot, as well as crochet, and I use their interchangeable needle sets and have been knitting with Wool of the Andes for years. I love their Brava acrylic for crochet and have made many of your hats with it. You got a great box!!!!

Gorgeous yarns. Thanks for sharing. Love that pink orange yarn😍

Love your review of the yarns! I really liked all the yarns you showed but loved the chroma colors for fall! Woul

Crystal, my brother, had an Oxeloto as a pet for years. He kept it on a fish tank. Some water in the tank is not full of water, tho. My brother caught him from a lake here in Montana. Hope you are doing well. Love your videos ❤

Nice yarn haul. I like the colors.

Hi Chrystal, greetings from Iowa 😊 Seeing you so excited about all those beautiful yarns is contagious. I agree with you. The dark blue color is beautiful. Thanks for sharing your new yarns with us❤

Beautiful yarn haul, I am never disappointed with knit pick yarns.

Hi there Hope you are all keeping cool. Love the yarns 😊🧶

I love the colors! - especially, the Woodnote ‘Rosewood’🤗🤎🌸🤎

That multi-color Chroma yarn reminds me of a parrot.

Beautiful yarn Crystal! Can’t wait to see what you make😊

Thank you for sharing. I've always had good experiences ordering from knitpicks and wecrochet. I like the yarns I've ordered from them, their acrylic brava tweed yarn and even their normal brava (acrylic) line is nice... especially when it's on sale. I usually order on sale. I have one of their alpaca yarns I haven't used yet and I think I may have the Hawthorne yarn but I haven't used it yet either. I did buy one of their mystery boxes once and it was nicely put together. I got it before I had my KZread channel so I didn't do a video unboxing of it. I haven't really looked to see if they have or have had any more mystery bags. I've heard that chroma yarn is really nice and I like to buy from them when they have their good sales. :). I also love fall colors and I like browns, greys and neutrals, strong reds and blues, dark ones too...

I have to have the Pico Heather! That is more than gorgeous 🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊

Yarn talk. My favorite 😊❤

Hey Crystal! Love yarn too! Love the hat!

That is some beautiful yarn.

Sweet Douggie photo bombing in the back!❤😊 And then Freddie went running by too! ❤🐩🐶

You mentioned Axolotls, I've spent several years working in a fish store, and know a fair bit about their care. The tricky parts are mainly temperature and water quality. They're a cold-water species, and prefer their water to be mid 60s Fahrenheit. This can be extremely tricky to maintain, but also incredibly important. If they're kept above 70F, they become stressed and more prone to illnesses. If you run your AC at 70 or lower, you should be fine. Water temp is generally a couple degrees below room temp if I recall correctly. Otherwise, I'd recommend maintaining them in a basement. True water chillers are extremely difficult to find nowadays. As for water quality, axolotls are amphibians, and have very porous skin. Anything in their water is also in them, so it's very important to properly establish a nitrogen cycle in their tank prior to adding them. Aquarium bacteria needs to be kept cold to be effective, so shelved bacterial starters are generally well past their usefulness. Water changes of 25% every week or two are very important, and the axolotl can stay in the tank during the water change process. Additional factors include that they should NOT be kept on gravel or sand, if they ingest any by accident, it can be an impaction risk, blocking their intestines, and causing premature death. They are sensitive to bright lighting, and it is typically not recommended to light their tank. They also can be difficult to maintain on dry foods, as they have poor eyesight. Their food should be "smelly" so they can find it, it's okay if you can't smell it though, smelling in water is different than in air. Worms are their ideal diet, though they can be fed frozen foods as well. Live blackworms and nightcrawlers in particular are the best worms. Ideally, you should cut nightcrawlers so the worm piece is no longer than their head. Red wiggler worms are not ideal, and frozen bloodworms can be fed on occasion, but are fatty and lack some vital nutrients, so don't make for a good staple diet. I was sooo excited about the Oceania yarn, plastic removal from Oceans is something I'm very passionate about. I've watched plastics on beaches increase over the years, and the knowledge of the Pacific Ocean garbage patch is just absolutely tragic. I'm hoping to make an even moss stitch sweater from it, the Irish Moss color is just stunning, but I'm waiting for a good sale.

They are all “gorgeous “❤

I love all of the yarn that you showed thank you again!!!!!!

I buy from Knit Pics a lot. The Hawthorne has beautiful stitch definition. Stroll tonal is my go to fingering. Love the haul❤

Very pretty yarnies!!! Can't wait to see the hats! 💜

Crystal, that almost black color would go GREAT with that maroon (?) Yarn.... Just sayin. I can see them together. Stunning.

The Bluefaced Leicester and Masham blend, won’t be the softest but probably one of the hardest/strongest wearing natural wool blends. Best for clothes etc that don’t go next to the skin

Yes cardigan tutorial with the woolen cotton . I just bought enough in the blue yarn you showed.

Ohhhhh...that Chroma yarn is 🔥!

Hi Crystal. I watched you all the time. Silent viewer here. But it will be great if you can do a yarn review after you finished a project. So we'll know how the it is after wearing and washing...if any pilling or keeping the shape. I know you have so much different yarns that's it's great to have a review after you make a project❤

Oh my goodness! Another yarny adventure for sure!❤

I see you ☺️ rocking your pink 🩷👋

AWESOME BOX OF GOODNESS 😊❤

I love how you squeeze your yarns. I do the same thing.

i just love how excited you get over new yarn, it makes me so happy : ) thanks, you have again cheered me on a bad day! love you!

Absolutely! We love Gary!!❤❤

Love the colors I think teal looks good with golds browns

Beautiful yarns, thank you for sharing.
