Episode 49: What would normal people do?

I show you all my Wyeth Pullover, a couple crocheted bags, lovely test knit stripes, and share your thoughts on Imposter Syndrome and lockdown lessons. 

Also, I probably didn’t edit this down enough, but I wanted to get it up and invite viewers to the #LoveYourNeighborMAL on instagram ASAP.

The inspiration for the Make-along name (but you don’t have to be religious to participate :))

My question for you: How do you feel about the monetization of crafting? Do you let luxe yarn turn you off or do you find an alternative? Does everything about your craft seem t have a steeper price tag on it and is this healthy capitalism or not? I’m interested.
