I like the burgundy and blue for the accents to use with the granny square yarns. I would have chosen the same - my Walmart is just like yours.

The red

If my local Walmart had a yarn aisle like that, it would be an improvement. They literally have 3 small shelves of yarn. 1 for Red Heart Super Saver, 1 for Mainstay yarn, and 1 for mandala ombré. And each shelf has between 3 and 4 different colors. That’s it. I live in a yarn wasteland.

Crystal, I remember the Red Heart Butterfly. I came across one skein, partially worked while I was cleaning. I wasn't sure what I was making but knew the color was discontinued. I searched high and low and couldnt find any. I was going through my stash and lo and behold, I found a Butterfly stash, enough for a project! The Lord works in mysterious ways! If I can figure out how to get a pic to you, I will. You made my night as well as my days. Love and health to you and the family. JoAnne

My Walmart in Canada doesn’t have much for yarn either. And I agree that the granny square yarn is too frustrating to make granny squares with. I don’t want to tighten or loosen my stitches to make it work. I think the fabrics for the bags will look really good.

The dark red is absolutely perfect to go with your variegated yarn xx

It makes my heart happy whenever I open KZread and see you there holding up yarn, or sporting a new beanie, or showcasing a new project, or getting ready to open a new mystery pack, etc. Your enthusiasm for all things yarn is contagious. PS....get those plaques hung BOD. We're all so very proud of you. 😊

My Walmart didn’t have half as much yarn as yours. Your Walmart is paradise.😮

Hey Crystal, you ARE doing it- Idea for the bag yarn...a take off on a Victorian crazy quilt: pick a stitch, work that stitch until the color runs out, switch to a different stitch, even a different direction until that color runs out. Play with entrlac, mosaic, stretch stitches (forgot the name) where you insert rows below, Play. Start new shapes wherever you choose. Sew together even overlapping pieces! What do you think? By the way, Evelyn's current fave colors, bright pink and orange has a 1960s Mod vibe. I salute her!

Love to see how you’re going to make it work! The fabrics are fun with their respective yarns. Good times! 🦋

You, my friend are unstoppable. Nobody can make you stop until you're ready to stop. I look forward to the bag tutorial! Those are my favorite.

Never thought of putting the granny square yarn as a variegated. Thanks so much for that idea. You always inspire me in some way.

I’m glad that you were courageous enough to buy all of the granny square yarn! I bought the dark plum, lavender, crimson, coral, pink, granny color, and have made granny squares out of it. I got 15! I’m just thrilled to see someone with more courage than me try them all out. Can’t wait to see what they turn out like for you!

Ooo... I like the colors you chose for the granny square yarn. I'm a rebel... lol... I like to put unique colors together. Stay with burgundy!

The fabrics for all the linings are great for the yarns. You and your did a good job on matching them up. That will all keep you busy for a little bit!!

My walmart is about the same. I think the burgundy gonna look great with it!! You chose great soilds for all of them honestly. I made a quilt with that rose fabric you was like "oh that's pretty I wish I can sew" ❤

Loving the new Bag O Day hats! I love it when you take us on a road trip with you!

My Walmart pales in comparison to yours Crystal. The Red Heart yarn you bought reminds me of the corn people hang on their doors in the Autumn. The white, orange and pink yarn is beautiful! The fabric you picked matches so nicely. I can’t wait to see the bags you design! You say you aren’t good with colors-I think you do great! I love everything you chose!

Like the black and greys with that print for the lining

I love it when you take us for a field trip!! Such fun!! Thank you 💕❤️💕❤️ I’m on “probation”…. Pretty sure if I bring home anymore yarn…. Someone will report me to a 12 step program 😂❤

I actually like the red color the best, love your tutorials !! I've only been crocheting for about 6 months and your my go to person for learning new stitches, so thank you for what you do!!

i just finished making a poncho with the red heart warm wheat and it is gorgeous, i'm going to get more of that color again, didn't make granny squares either, but it took 2 balls of the yarn to complete. i'm 5'9 and drapes my body fairly nice, though my mom always love what make and she wears the items i make so much better than i do, she's 5'4 ,thanks for the tutorials, you've helped broaden my love for crochet😀

Hi Crystal, I can’t wait to see what you’re making. Thanks for taking me shopping with y’all. Watching. I love all liners for the bags, I think the one for the newspaper is dead on. I’m not a fan of black liners in my bags bcuz everything gets lost in the black hole. It’s funny you spoke abt making a bucket hat, only this morning I said I hope you make a bucket hat bcuz my teenage niece keeps asking for one. Have a good night my friend. The burgundy is nice for the border. Love the navy also, perfect match.

I bought the granny square yarn and was surprised how much I liked it… made my granddaughter a purse❤️ and looks fabulous!

I made a Mobius shawl, cocoon shrug, and fingerless gloves out of the granny square yarn they turned out pretty. I wore the shrug to church and a lot of the ladies loved it

I think the red will set it off beautifully! The blue's & solid is so nice together too!!

I love the flower material liner for the pretty pink colored granny square yarn. For some reason I love patterns like that matched together. I can’t wait to see the bags you make with the yarns. I’ve never made a bag.

My gosh! I absolutely love going shopping with you! So much fun!! It’s great to see how your creative mind works ❤

If you're looking for the granny square, make sure to check the end caps, I don't think it's gonna be part of the normal set.

I love the concept of using the RH granny square yarn as a variegated yarn. I can't wait to see what you're working on.

I like the color combinations you got. I think the red would be a great pop with the granny square and I love the lily pad with navy. Looking forward to seeing it used in something other than granny squares. Thanks for taking us shopping with you! 😊

Thanks Crystal for taking us along to your Walmart. I like see what you bought all the beautiful colors of yarn. Crystal I can hardly wait to see what you make with all the beautiful colors of yarn and material. Have a great day and happy crocheting.♥️

Our Walmarts are worse. Yep, I grabbed a bunch of PW's yarn for $3. I hadn't been to Walmart in a while but was checking to see if they had the Itty Bitty Stripes.

My Walmart has 1/4 the yarn that yours does. That red will look great on the all in one granny yarn! Hope you're having an amazing day!!! Trish

I think you are about to have a blast exploring the different ideas you have! I am excited to try crocheting the awesome results! Happy Creating everyone!❤

Oh boy I do wish we had stores in the UK like you have in the States, for yarn and the choice of weights and colours. Love your videos Crystal and listening to your extensive knowledge and advice, keep them coming, thank you and bless you ❤

I LIKE THE BURGUNDY COLOR. I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE CHOSEN THE SAME! ACCENTUATE THE LITTLE BIT OF RED/BURGUNDY IN THE BALL. 👍

Thank you for taking us shopping with you at Walmart

I so love that you are going "out of your box" with these yarns and projects! I'm also excited to see the items you make and to go stash busting in my yarn closet to make them too. Go Crystal! Ready for summer crocheting!!!!! Oh for the blanket, I would do the creamy color for border , then the reddish one for outer border!

I like the burgundy and the blue. I wish we had a store or stores in South Africa that carries more yarns. Oure stores only have a tiny section that covers yarn. We have to go to specialist stores and they are all very expensive. I love your ideas ❤

I absolutely love the fabric section. I wish my Walmart had that much. And your yarn section is a lot more then mine

Oh my I'm thrilled your gonna review the amigurumi kits. I had no clue red heart even had them. Just checked my walmart the kits are 16.56 to me that's to much.

Love the colors, I would love to see the finished projects. The red border will work better than the white. Love your talent.

that bold variegated. red/blue/green/orange and so forth..I got a bag of that in a mill ends bag down here in Australia a few years back..I finally made use of it..I made an open hat (that can also be worn as a cowl) matching fingerless mitts and leg warmers..I wore them to the Alice Springs beanie festival last June..they went nicely with a tunic top that was tie dyed in similar colours..Alice Springs is the Red center of the Northern Territory..

I like the Navy with the Lilly pad

Excited to see how the bags will turn out. Cant get the RH granny yarn for anything less than AUD$25 per ball here in Australia... luckily though some mill ends of this yarn came through in discount bags. Managed to grab 8 bags for AUD$44... woohoo, lol. Like you am not using to make granny squares.

I haven't seen as many around lately so am grateful to have been able to get the ones that I did, but hope they have some of the others soon!

I’ve been out of the loop , congratulations 🥳 on your reaching one million subscribers !! You have worked so hard Crystal!!😘❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

I love the liners with the yarn. You do not "suck" at matching. Good ideas by the handful in this video. Thanks

I watched somebody on KZread use that granny square yarn Three different ways and corner to corner looked the best. 😊🧶💚

We’re lucky here in Australia, our supermarkets sell canvas shopping bags with a rope handle for about $3AUD, saves having to line the crochet bags or squares. Love to watch your tutorials, learnt just so much, Thankyou.

I agree with you about the granny square yarn. I can't get it to match up either. But it's in pretty colors and I grabbed some to make blankets.

I LOVE the flower and bird fabric with yarn. It's a beautiful combination. I think all your combinations are beautiful!

I like the lining choices for your bags. Anxious to see what you do with the short stripes too.

Your liner game is on point! I absolutely love the vibrant orange with that orange striped yarn! The red is totally the right choice with the warm wheat! Don't doubt yourself, you are amazing, and I am amazed that you write your amazing patterns without being good at reading others. With amigurumi, you want to wrap under the hook to avoid gaping stitches as this uses less yarn. You could crochet i-cords and use them to encase rope or paracord for stability. I'm currently knitting and crocheting a bag using the granny square yarn in soft white amethyst. The knit sections have an i-cord edge that I will fill with paracord and will make the strap with paracord filled i-cords that will be braided together. Have an amazing day!

Crystal? I wish I could have your creative mind! You do have a way of making things work together. Please show us your projects when your finish 🙏🏻

Hi Crystal, you have such great ideas and I love the color way you choose and Rose picks too and the colors do go together enough to pass, I missed your live but wanted to congratulate you on your million, you absolutely deserve it all 🙂😊thank you for all of your tutorials you teach so well

After the first few skeins, I became obsessed with granny square yarn & now have every color. Not for squares, but for making scarves and hats with different patterns. The ones I've liked the most are regular and moss stitch C2C. Really makes some interesting layouts! My Walmarts suck, too.

I like what you picked out. I think it’s less about “matching” and more about what compliments. It looks really nice.

The lining materials you chose works great with both of the bags. Can't wait to see how they look together.

I really like the red with the wheat color yarn it’s like fall leaves.

I love that you're putting the granny square yarn to a different use!! The lily pad and blue is going to make a beautiful top! And the red with the wheat.....I think its gonna make it pop!! The bright,,orange, hot pink, white.. it will be so cute, but woul also make a cute tank top for Evelyn!! Can't wait to see what you do!! Love it!!❤

I have the granny square yarn. I have used it for corner to corner for a 16" pillow. Turned out wonderful. I also make sold granny squares with it. Almost works out! I just love the colors. All the colors.

Scotland here, I'd be like a wean in a sweet shop with that selection! Wow! So you can pick up groceries, yarn and favric in the one shop?! We have wee independent yarn shops but I have to order most of my stuff online. I'm so jealous that you have Wallmarts, Joanne's and Michaels all offering big selections of yarn. It really helps to get to see and touch it in person.

I really like the lining fabric you found. I never can find ones I like. After seeing the yarns you have given me inspiration. Thank you.

I think that you did a great job picking out the liners for the bags. Spot on!

Great shopping video! We all feel the same disappointment in our Walmart aisles, sadly- but sometimes we have to make it work! Would love to see tutorials on lining bags as I have one to do- and maybe try a bunch of different stitches like C2C, shell, etc with the granny stripe yarn to see how it works up? No one knows more stitches than you and I haven't seen anyone do that. Thanks for taking us shopping with you! You rock!!

Getting older here and made a bag with a very dark lining and found I could not find anything in it, need to have light and bright to see what is in the bag. Always fun to see what you come home with .

Love that warm weather. Our Walmart has one isle of yarn and it's just part way down, that's it.

I'm excited to see the bags you make. What a great idea!

My Walmart near my house, doesn't have much yarn either. I bought some yarn in the beginning of January 2024 when they had a big clearance. Some for blankets. Some for your B&W Houndstooth and red for ruffle border. Some for stash. And a few Bernat Blanket to make slippers. I'd think the Granny Square yarn would have stripes that keep getting longer. I think it would be good for things NOT granny squares. I like their colors. Good yarn haul!!! TFS! Austin TX USA
