Operation Platypus: Time to Plump Him Up! Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-25 | 🧶 Operation Platypus: Time to Plump Him Up! | Live for 45Our platypus adventure continues! 🦆🦫💜Last time we made more progress on our little fellow, but now we’ve reached a rather important question...Just how fat should our platypus be? 😂In this episode of Live for 45, I’ll be spending another 45 minutes working on our platypus while we figure out his shape, proportions and just how delightfully plump he ought to become.Remember, Live for 45 isn’t about finishing a project in 45 minutes. The rule is simply that this project is worked on only during these 45-minute lives, completely on screen with you. When the 45 minutes are up, down go the hook and yarn until the next episode!So grab your knitting, crochet or whatever crafty project you’re working on, settle in, and keep me company for 45 minutes. And I definitely want your opinion...Too slim? Just right? A little chubby? Or gloriously round? 🤣🧶Maggie and Joey will, of course, be supervising proceedings. Whether either of them is qualified to judge appropriate platypus dimensions remains highly questionable. 🐾💜 SAM’S YARN BASKET🧺 Website & Shop:payhip.com/SamsYarnBasket/home▶️ YouTube Channel:youtube.com/@SamsYarnBasket💜 Become a Channel Member:youtube.com/@SamsYarnBasket/join🧶 Ravelry Patterns:ravelry.com/designers/sam-clayton/patterns☕ Ko-fi:ko-fi.com/samsyarnbasket💙 Facebook:facebook.com/profile.php?id=61593177722659💜 PayPal:paypal.me/SamsYarnBasketThank you for watching, chatting, liking, subscribing and simply being part of our little yarny corner of the world.

🧶 One Row, Gorgeous Results! | Learn the Close Shells Crochet Stitch LIVE Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-24 | 🧶☕ HOOK & SIP – CLOSE SHELLS CROCHET STITCH TUTORIAL ☕🧶Welcome back to Hook & Sip, our weekly get-together where we grab our crochet hooks, something nice to sip, and spend some time learning, chatting and crocheting together. 💜This week we’re adding another stitch to our growing collection of crochet techniques: the beautiful Close Shells Stitch.This is a wonderfully textured stitch made from groups of double crochets separated by single crochets. Once you understand where those stitches are placed, the pattern settles into a lovely rhythm and is quite easy to remember.Make yourself a small practice swatch, experiment with different yarns and colours, or make a larger piece to add to your freeform crochet sampler blanket. Remember, our swatches don’t have to be wasted—we can eventually join all these different textures, shapes and techniques together into something completely unique. 🧶As always, crochet along with me, ask questions in the chat, and most importantly—enjoy yourself. There are no crochet police here! 😁🧶 CLOSE SHELLS STITCH PATTERNMultiple of 6 sts, plus 1 for the foundation chain.Row 1:2dc in 4th ch from hook, skip 2ch, 1sc in next ch.*Skip 2ch, 4dc in next ch, skip 2ch, 1sc in next ch; rep from * to end, turn.Row 2:Ch3, 2dc in first sc, skip 2dc, *1sc between 2nd and 3rd dc of next group, skip 2dc, 4dc in next sc, skip 2dc; rep from * ending 1sc in sp between last dc and ch-3, turn.Repeat Row 2 until desired length.💡 US crochet terminology is used in this pattern.🧺 FIND SAM’S YARN BASKET🛍️ Website – patterns and morepayhip.com/SamsYarnBasket/home❤️ Become a YouTube Memberyoutube.com/@SamsYarnBasket/join📘 Facebookfacebook.com/profile.php?id=61593177722659🧶 Ravelry Patternsravelry.com/designers/sam-clayton/patterns☕ Ko-fi – support Sam’s Yarn Basketko-fi.com/samsyarnbasket💜 PayPal – support the channelpaypal.me/SamsYarnBasketThank you so much for spending part of your day with me.

The Colourful Controversy - Let’s Talk Yarn Bombing Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-24 | 🧶💣 YARN BOMBING: GOOD OR BAD? | Fibre Facts ClubThis week Fibre Facts Club is doing something a little different!Instead of me simply sharing the research while you sit back and listen, this episode is going to be a discussion, and I want YOU to be part of it. I’ll also be joined by special guests as we take a closer look at yarn bombing and ask whether this colourful form of fibre art is harmless fun... or whether there are some problems hiding underneath all those beautiful stitches.🌳 BEFORE we begin, you'll get to vote:Are you FOR yarn bombing, AGAINST it, or UNSURE?Then tell us WHY!During our discussion we'll look at some of the big questions surrounding yarn bombing:🧶 Does yarn bombing actually hurt trees?🚲 What if we're covering something that isn't alive, such as a fence, bench, lamppost or old bicycle?🌎 What happens to yarn when it's left outside in the weather?🐦 Could loose or deteriorating yarn cause problems for wildlife?♻️ Does using acrylic yarn create an environmental problem?💰 Is yarn bombing simply a waste of perfectly good yarn?🎨 Is it public art, decoration... or something else?🌳 Can yarn bombing be done responsibly?We'll look at beautiful, freshly created yarn bombing as well as installations that have been left outside to fade, deteriorate and fall apart.And importantly, we're going to separate some of the things that are often said about yarn bombing from what the available evidence actually tells us.Then, after we've heard the facts, discussed the arguments and listened to each other's opinions, we're voting AGAIN.Will you still be FOR, AGAINST or UNSURE?Or will something you hear during Fibre Facts Club actually change your mind?☕ Grab your hook, needles and current project and come join the conversation. There isn't a “correct” side you have to take. Bring your opinion, tell us why you think that way, listen to what everyone else has to say and let's see where the discussion takes us!🧺 SAM'S YARN BASKET🌐 Website & Pattern Shoppayhip.com/SamsYarnBasket/home▶️ YouTube Channelyoutube.com/@SamsYarnBasket💜 Become a Channel Memberyoutube.com/@SamsYarnBasket/join📘 Facebookfacebook.com/profile.php?id=61593177722659🧶 Ravelry Designsravelry.com/designers/sam-clayton/patterns☕ Ko-fiko-fi.com/samsyarnbasket💙 PayPalpaypal.me/SamsYarnBasketThank you for watching, chatting, sharing your thoughts and being part of Sam's Yarn Basket.

We’re experimenting, learning and building our skills one stitch at a time.

How Did We Get From a Stick to a Spinning Wheel? 🧶 Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-20 | How did we go from twisting fibre with a simple spindle to the spinning wheels we recognise today, and eventually to modern electric spinners?In this episode of Fibre Facts Club, we’re following the fascinating evolution of hand spinning. 🧶We’ll start with the humble drop spindle, then follow the changes that gave us the Great Wheel, the development of the flyer and bobbin, treadle wheels, Saxony-style wheels, modern castle wheels and finally the electric spinner.But this isn’t quite a story of one invention simply replacing another. Some of these spinning tools continued to be used alongside newer inventions for centuries, and amazingly, people are still happily spinning with drop spindles today.And yes, we are deliberately walking straight past the Industrial Revolution this time! 😂 This episode is about the tools used by hand spinners, how they changed, and what each new idea made easier.So grab your knitting, crochet, spinning or whatever is keeping your hands busy, settle in and join me for another trip down the fibre-history rabbit hole.💬 I’d love to know:If you could try just one method of spinning, which would you choose? A drop spindle, Great Wheel, traditional treadle wheel or a modern electric spinner?🧶 SAM’S YARN BASKET🌐 Sam’s Yarn Basket Website & Shop▶️ Sam’s Yarn Basket on YouTube💜 Become a Channel Member🧶 My Ravelry Patterns☕ Support Me on Ko-fi💙 Sam’s Yarn Basket on Facebook💜 PayPal SupportAll for yarn and yarn for all. 🧶💜#FibreFactsClub #SpinningYarn #SpinningWheel #DropSpindle #HandSpinning #YarnHistory #FiberArts #Knitting #Crochet #SamsYarnBasket

When was knitting more than a hobby? Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-14 | 🧶 When was knitting more than a hobby?Welcome back to Fibre Facts Club at Sam’s Yarn Basket, where we settle in with our yarn and explore the fascinating people, stories and history behind the crafts we love.Today we're travelling back to a time when knitting wasn't simply something people did to relax. Knitting was work. It was a skilled trade, and for many people it was a way of earning a living.We'll explore the forgotten world of professional knitting and discover how men, women and children used their needles to help support themselves and their families.We'll talk about some of the earliest surviving evidence of knitting, the rise of professional knitting in Europe, knitting guilds and the extraordinary skills expected of a master knitter. We'll also discover just how important the stocking trade became, why the English government once cared about whether people wore woollen caps, and how William Lee's invention of the stocking frame helped change knitting forever.And yes — men knitted professionally too! 🧶So how did knitting travel from profession to hobby? And when did our modern picture of knitting begin to emerge?Grab your knitting or crochet, make yourself comfortable and join me for another trip through fibre history.💬 JOIN THE CONVERSATIONI'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments:If you had lived at a time when knitting was your profession rather than your hobby, do you think you would still have loved doing it?And what piece of knitting history would you like us to investigate next on Fibre Facts Club?🧺 VISIT SAM’S YARN BASKETPatterns, Sam’s Yarn Basket and more:Sam’s Yarn Basket website💜 BECOME A BASKETEER — CHANNEL MEMBERSHIPIf you'd like to become a member and help support Sam’s Yarn Basket:Join Sam’s Yarn Basket on YouTube🧶 FIND ME ON RAVELRYPatterns and designs:Sam Clayton on Ravelry💬 FOLLOW ON FACEBOOKKeep up with Sam’s Yarn Basket and join in with the community:Sam’s Yarn Basket on Facebook☕ SUPPORT SAM’S YARN BASKETIf you'd like to help support the channel and the work that goes into creating tutorials, patterns and Fibre Facts Club:Support through Ko-fiSupport through PayPalThank you for watching, commenting, sharing and spending some of your yarny time with me.

Don’t Throw Away Your Crochet Swatches! 🧶 We’re Making THIS! Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-11 | 🧶 HOOK & SIP — What Do We Do With All Those Crochet Swatches?What happens to all those little crochet stitch swatches once we’ve learned the stitch?We turn them into something wonderful! 🧶💜For this episode of Hook & Sip, I want to return to the original purpose behind this series: learning together and building our crochet skills by exploring a huge variety of stitches, techniques, textures and shapes of crocheted fabric.Hook & Sip is our opportunity to experiment. We can begin with simple stitches and gradually work our way through beautiful textures, lace, clusters, shells, cables, bobbles and all sorts of interesting techniques.But that leaves us with one rather important question...What do we DO with all those swatches?Well, I have an idea! 😁Instead of making dozens of identical squares for a traditional sampler blanket, we're going to embrace the chaos and allow our Hook & Sip swatches to become a completely free-form crochet creation.Our swatches don't even have to be squares!We can make long rectangles, short rectangles, circles, triangles, granny-style pieces, flowers and all sorts of unusual shapes as we explore different crochet techniques.And when two pieces don't quite fit together?That's part of the adventure!We might crochet an extra border around one piece. We could add a few rows to another. We might create a completely new little shape to fill an awkward gap or crochet directly onto an existing swatch to make everything fit.There are no perfect rows, no identical blocks and absolutely no requirement for symmetry.In fact, the more wonderfully mismatched it becomes, the better!As the weeks and months pass, all those individual experiments will gradually become something much bigger—a free-form Hook & Sip stitch sampler blanket that tells the story of our crochet journey.We'll be able to look back at the simpler stitches from the beginning and see how our skills developed as we tackled more interesting textures, beautiful lace, unusual construction methods and increasingly challenging techniques.Eventually, we won't just have a blanket.We'll have a record of everything we've learned together. ❤️So start rummaging through those yarn baskets!Choose one yarn weight for your project. I'm likely to use 3 weight / 8 ply / DK yarn, but you could choose something finer—or heavier if that's what you enjoy. Pick a crochet hook that works nicely with your chosen yarn and then use all those leftovers, odd balls and scraps you've been saving.Bright colours? Absolutely!Muted tones? Beautiful!A carefully chosen colour palette? Go for it!Every colour of the rainbow thrown together with absolutely no plan whatsoever?Now you're speaking my language! 😂But I don't want another blanket!Who said it has to be a blanket?Imagine turning this idea into the most wonderfully chaotic crochet cardigan or jumper!Different stitches, different shapes and different colours could all come together to create a completely unique garment. You could even design it as you go, adding pieces until eventually you realise...I've made a cardigan!That's what I want Hook & Sip to become.Not simply a collection of individual tutorials, but a long-term creative adventure where everything we learn has the opportunity to become part of something bigger.A masterpiece.An heirloom.Or perhaps the craziest cardigan you've ever worn. 😂🧶☕ So make yourself something nice to sip, grab your hook and your basket of scrap yarn, and join me for Hook & Sip.All for yarn and yarn for all! 🧶💜🧶 FIND & SUPPORT SAM'S YARN BASKET💜 Become a Basketeer – YouTube MembershipJoin Sam's Yarn Basket on YouTube🧶 Ravelry – My PatternsSam Clayton's Ravelry Designs🛍️ Etsy – Sam's Yarn BasketVisit my Etsy shop☕ Ko-fi – Buy Me a CoffeeSupport Sam's Yarn Basket on Ko-fi💙 PayPal – Support the ChannelSupport Sam's Yarn Basket via PayPal💬 Facebook – Join the ConversationSam's Yarn Basket on Facebook

We turn them into something wonderful! 🧶💜For this episode of Stitch & Sip, I want to return to the original purpose behind this series: learning together and building our knitting skills by exploring a huge variety of stitches, techniques and shapes of knitted fabric.When Stitch & Sip began, I wanted it to be a place where we could try everything—from the simplest beginner stitches to beautiful textures, fascinating construction techniques, stunning lace and, eventually, those wonderfully captivating cables.But there’s always been one question...What do we DO with all those swatches?Well, I have an idea! 😁Rather than making perfectly identical squares and carefully arranging them into a traditional sampler blanket, I want us to embrace the chaos and create a completely free-form Stitch & Sip sampler blanket.Imagine long rectangular swatches sitting alongside little squares. Circles meeting oddly shaped pieces. One swatch might be too short, another too long, and two pieces we desperately want beside each other might not fit together at all.That’s where the fun begins!We may need to knit an extra edge. We might create a tiny free-form shape just to fill a gap. We could pick up stitches along one piece to make it meet another. Sometimes we'll have to invent a solution as we go.There are no perfect rows, no identical blocks and no requirement for symmetry.Over time, all those seemingly unrelated pieces will slowly become one wonderfully chaotic creation—a blanket that tells the story of our knitting journey.The early sections will remind us of the simpler stitches we learned. Later we'll see our confidence growing as textures become more interesting, lace becomes more intricate and cables begin twisting their way through our fabric.Eventually, we won't just have a stitch sampler.We'll have a record of how our knitting skills developed. ❤️So grab that basket of scrap yarn! Choose one yarn weight—perhaps 3 weight / 8 ply / DK like me, or something finer if that's what you enjoy. Choose one set of needles appropriate for your yarn, and let's see where this adventure takes us.And eventually?We may just have created a masterpiece. An heirloom. Something completely unique that we'll cherish forever.But I don't want another blanket!EVEN BETTER! 😂Why not take exactly the same idea and turn those swatches into a completely chaotic cardigan or jumper?Go wild with bright colours and scraps from dozens of projects, or choose a beautiful collection of muted tones for something more subtle. Imagine wearing a garment where every section represents a stitch you learned along the way!There are no rules here. That's rather the point.☕ So make yourself something nice to sip, grab your needles and your scrap basket, and join me for Stitch & Sip.All for yarn and yarn for all! 🧶🧶 FIND & SUPPORT SAM'S YARN BASKET💜 Become a Basketeer – YouTube MembershipJoin Sam's Yarn Basket on YouTube🧶 Ravelry – My PatternsSam Clayton's Ravelry Designs🛍️ Etsy – Sam's Yarn BasketVisit my Etsy shop☕ Ko-fi – Buy Me a CoffeeSupport Sam's Yarn Basket on Ko-fi💙 PayPal – Support the ChannelSupport Sam's Yarn Basket via PayPal💬 Facebook – Join the ConversationSam's Yarn Basket on Facebook
🧶🎬 Behind the Basket: What It REALLY Takes to Make Fibre Film Club Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-07 | 🎬 Fibre Film Club | Copyright, Planning & Can I Finish This Sock?!Welcome back to Fibre Film Club — where we watch, learn, chat and, of course, usually have some yarn in our hands! 🧶🎬This week we're doing something a little different and going behind the scenes of Fibre Film Club.Putting together these episodes isn't quite as simple as finding an interesting film and pressing play. There are copyright rules to consider, research to do, images and footage to find, scripts and commentary to prepare — and sometimes an idea that sounds wonderful at first has to be completely rethought because of what I can and cannot legally show.So today we're chatting about:🎬 Copyright and Fibre Film Club — what are some of the issues I have to think about?⚖️ What's allowed and what isn't?🔎 Finding photographs, film clips and other material that I can actually use📝 The research and planning that happens before you ever see an episode💡 How I turn an idea into a Fibre Film Club topic🧶 And some of the ideas I'd love to explore with you in future episodes.But that's not our only challenge today...🧦 THE SOCK CHALLENGE!You may recognise my gloriously bright pink and orange sock — but there's a problem.It needs a partner!So the question is:Can I finish knitting the SECOND SOCK before Thursday at 9:30am Eastern US time?The clock is ticking, the yarn is waiting, and I'm not entirely convinced I've left myself enough time. 😂Come and keep me company while we talk copyright, Fibre Film Club, future ideas, knitting and everything else that inevitably finds its way into the conversation.☕ Grab your favourite drink.🧶 Bring whatever is on your hook or needles.🎬 And settle in with your fellow Basketeers.All for yarn and yarn for all! ❤️🧺 FIND SAM'S YARN BASKET❤️ Become a YouTube Member:Join Sam's Yarn Basket🧶 Ravelry — My Patterns:Sam Clayton Designs on Ravelry🛍️ Etsy — Sam's Yarn Basket:Visit my Etsy Shop☕ Ko-fi — Buy Me a Coffee:Support Sam's Yarn Basket on Ko-fi💖 PayPal — Support the Channel:Sam's Yarn Basket PayPal📘 Facebook — Join me between videos:Sam's Yarn Basket on Facebook👍 If you enjoy Fibre Film Club, please consider giving the video a thumbs up, subscribing and sharing it with another fibre-loving friend.

Our Platypus Needs Legs! | But how? Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-05 | 🧶 LIVE FOR 45 – Building Our Platypus | Legs & Flipper “Hands”! 🦆💛Welcome back to another Live for 45 at Sam’s Yarn Basket!Our little platypus is slowly coming together, and this week we’re moving on to those rather unusual platypus limbs! 😂Today we’ll be working on the legs and those wonderfully strange flipper-like “hands.”As with the rest of this project, we’re figuring things out together as we go. The aim has always been to create our platypus right here on camera, stitch by stitch, so nobody misses part of the process. That means there may be a little experimenting, a little frogging, and probably a few moments of “Well... that didn’t quite work!” — but that’s all part of the fun!🧶 THIS WEEK WE’LL BE:• Working out the shape and size of our platypus legs• Creating those distinctive webbed/flipper-style “hands”• Looking at how they should sit against the body• Making adjustments as we go• Chatting, crocheting and enjoying 45 minutes of yarny company together!If you’re making your own platypus alongside me, grab your hook and yarn and join in. And if you’re simply here for the company, pop the kettle on, bring whatever is currently on your hook or needles and settle in with the Basketeers. ☕🧶There’s absolutely no rush with this project.

Are we making Ravioli? Sams Yarn Basket 2026-09-01 | 🧶 Stitch and Sip — Knitting a Quilted Baby BlanketWelcome back to Stitch and Sip, where we grab our needles, pour ourselves something nice to drink, and enjoy a little knitting together. ☕🧶This week we're starting a gorgeous knitted quilted baby blanket made from individual soft, puffy knitted squares.What I particularly love about this project is that it can be made almost entirely from scrap yarn. 🌈 There is no need to buy a whole new collection of yarns. Dig through your stash, find all those little leftover balls from previous projects, and turn them into colourful puffy squares.And the best part? The squares can be joined as you go! So rather than knitting a mountain of squares and facing a huge sewing job at the end, we can gradually watch our quilt grow as we make it.This makes it a wonderful stash-busting project and something you can keep beside your favourite knitting chair. Whenever you finish a project and have some yarn left over, make another square and add it to your quilt.💛 And why stop at a baby blanket?Keep going and you could make a cot blanket, lap quilt, throw, single-bed quilt or even a full-sized quilt for your own bed. Imagine snuggling underneath a thick, squishy, hand-knitted quilt made from memories of all the projects you've knitted over the years. It would be absolutely perfect for winter!As always, I'll include timestamps so you can jump directly to the full, uninterrupted tutorial for making the puffy square. That way, once you've watched the episode and understand how everything works, you can return whenever you need a refresher without having to search through the entire video.So grab your needles, raid that scrap-yarn basket and come Stitch and Sip with me! ☕🧶💕🔗 Come and join the Sam's Yarn Basket community⭐ Become a Basketeer — Channel MembershipJoin Sam's Yarn Basket🧶 Patterns on RavelrySam Clayton — Ravelry Patterns☕ Support Sam's Yarn Basket on Ko-fiSam's Yarn Basket — Ko-fi💗 Support the channel via PayPalSam's Yarn Basket — PayPal🌸 Join us on FacebookSam's Yarn Basket — Facebook🛍️ Etsy — Sam's Yarn BasketSam's Yarn Basket on Etsy#SamsYarnBasket #StitchAndSip #KnittingTutorial #BabyBlanket #KnittedBlanket #ScrapYarn #StashBuster #ScrapYarnProject #KnittedSquares #KnittingForBeginners #LearnToKnit #KnittedQuilt #KnittingCommunity #Basketeers🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

Eyes, Legs and Nostrils, oh my! Sams Yarn Basket 2026-08-29 | 🦆 LIVE for 45 – Platypus! Week 4 🧶Welcome back to LIVE for 45! 💜This week, we’re continuing our slightly weird, wonderfully wonky amigurumi platypus adventure, and our little friend is really starting to come to life!It’s Week 4, and today we’re concentrating on some of those details that can completely change the personality of our platypus.👀 EYE SELECTION & ATTACHMENTWe’ll be choosing the eyes for our platypus and deciding exactly where they should go before we commit to attaching them. Eye placement can make a surprisingly big difference to an amigurumi’s expression!🦆 THE THREE LEGS – SHOULD I WORK THEM OFFLINE?We’ll have a chat about whether I should work the three legs separately, offline, rather than trying to complete every single part while we’re live. There’s always a balance between keeping everything on camera so nobody misses a stitch and making sure the project actually progresses!👃 LET'S TALK NOSTRILS!A platypus bill needs nostrils — but how should we represent them in crochet? We’ll discuss the options and decide exactly how we're going to portray those little details on our platypus's bill.As always, this isn't about racing to the finish. We're taking our time, figuring things out together, chatting, laughing, and hopefully creating a rather fabulous little weird, rare and wonderful platypus along the way. 💜☕ Grab your yarn, your favourite beverage and come spend 45 minutes of yarny fun with me!🧶 FIND SAM'S YARN BASKET💜 Facebook:Sam's Yarn Basket on Facebook🧶 Ravelry – Patterns & Designs:Sam's Yarn Basket on Ravelry☕ Support me on Ko-fi:Ko-fi – Sam's Yarn Basket💰 Support me via PayPal:PayPal – Sam's Yarn Basket🛍️ Sam's Yarn Basket Etsy Shop:Sam's Yarn Basket on Etsy🧶 ALL FOR YARN, YARN FOR ALLThank you for spending part of your day with me.

A Lightweight Summer Top Sams Yarn Basket 2026-08-28 | Hook and Sip — Week One: A Cotton Top for Summer 🧶☕🌸Welcome back to Hook and Sip! This week we’re starting something a little different — I’m going to begin creating my own crocheted summer top design in 100% cotton, and you’re coming along for the entire design process!For Week One, we’re concentrating on two very important things: getting the sizing right for the person the top is being made for, and becoming familiar with the stitch I’ve designed and chosen for this project.This is the same stitch I previously designed for the sleeve of my Mrs Weasley Cardigan, so I’ll be showing you how that stitch is created and getting you familiar with how it works before we start building the top.If everything goes according to plan, we should be able to get our starting chain and first row completed during this episode. From there, we’ll build the design week by week and see where this little experiment takes us!🧶 Make It Your WayOne of the things I love about designing your own crochet is that you get to make the choices.Although I’m designing this version in 100% cotton as a summer top, you don't have to use cotton if that's not what you want.You can use any yarn you like, together with the appropriate hook size for that yarn.Want something lightweight and cool for summer? Go for it!Want to make the design heavier and thicker so it works for autumn? That's completely up to you!The idea is to create a design that can be adapted to your yarn, your recipient and your preferences.📐 The PatternOnce I have finished the complete item and tested the design, the written pattern will be made available through my Ravelry patterns for a small charge.That way, we're able to work through the design process together first, and I can make sure the finished pattern works properly before making it available.So grab your yarn, your hook, your favourite drink and come and Hook and Sip with me! ☕🧶💜 Find Sam's Yarn Basket🧶 YouTube: Sam's Yarn Basket☕ Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/samsyarnbasket💜 PayPal: paypal.me/SamsYarnBasket🛍️ Etsy Shop: etsy.com/shop/SamsYarnBasket?ref=seller-platform-mcnav🧶 Ravelry – Sam Clayton's Patterns: ravelry.com/designers/sam-clayton/patterns📘 Facebook: facebook.com/profile.php?id=61593177722659Come and join the Sam's Yarn Basket community on Facebook, share what you're making, ask questions and yarn along with us!Remember: No pressure, no perfection — just yarn, creativity, good company and a little bit of experimenting.Grab your hook, grab your yarn and your favourite beverage...Let's Hook and Sip! 🧶☕💜#HookAndSip #SamsYarnBasket #Crochet #CrochetDesign #CrochetTop #CottonCrochet #CrochetSummerTop #CrochetAlong #CrochetWithMe #Handmade #CrochetCommunity

How much should a skein of 100% wool cost? Sams Yarn Basket 2026-08-23 | 🎬 Fibre Film Club: The Yarn Manufacturing Process – Is the Cost of Wool Valid?Have you ever picked up a beautiful skein of wool yarn, looked at the price and thought, “How can wool possibly cost THAT much?” 🐑💰In this episode of Fibre Film Club, we’re following wool on its incredible journey from sheep to skein and taking a closer look at everything that goes into producing the yarn we love to knit and crochet with.We’ll look at the process step by step, including:🐑 Shearing – where it all begins, and why the quality of the fleece matters.🧺 Sorting & Grading – separating the fleece according to fibre quality, length, colour and suitability.🫧 Scouring & Cleaning – removing lanolin, dirt, vegetable matter and other material from the raw wool.🪮 Carding – opening and aligning those fibres and preparing them for the next stage.🧶 Combing & Preparation – depending on the type of yarn being produced, fibres may be further aligned and prepared to create the desired characteristics.🌀 Spinning – transforming loose fibres into actual yarn, including the decisions that affect thickness, strength and texture.➰ Plying – combining spun strands to create the final yarn structure and influence its strength, appearance and behaviour.🌈 Dyeing – exploring when and how colour enters the process, and the additional work involved in producing those gorgeous shades we all love.🧵 Winding & Finishing – turning the manufactured yarn into the balls, hanks or skeins that eventually make their way to our local yarn shops.🔍 Quality Control & Packaging – the final checks before that yarn can be labelled, packaged and sent out into the world.And then comes the BIG question:💰 Is the cost of wool actually valid?Are we paying too much for our yarn?Or, when we consider the sheep, the farmers, shearing, transportation, processing, machinery, energy, labour, dyeing, quality control, packaging, distribution and everything else involved, does that expensive-looking skein suddenly make a lot more sense?We’ll follow the wool all the way through the manufacturing process and see just how much work, time and expertise is hidden inside that ball of yarn.So grab your favourite project, settle in with a cuppa ☕ and join me for another Fibre Film Club!Because before we complain about the price of the yarn...maybe we need to find out what we're actually paying for! 🐑🧶🧶 Support Sam's Yarn BasketIf you'd like to support the channel, you can do so here:☕ Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/samsyarnbasket💰 PayPal: paypal.me/SamsYarnBasket🛍️ Sam's Yarn Basket Etsy Shop: etsy.com/shop/SamsYarnBasket?ref=seller-platform-mcnav🧶 Ravelry: ravelry.com/designers/sam-clayton🧦 Sock Challenge Facebook Group: facebook.com/profile.php?id=61593177722659Come and join the community on Facebook, and don't forget to subscribe to Sam's Yarn Basket so you don't miss the next episode!All for Yarn, Yarn for All! 🧶❤️#FibreFilmClub #SamsYarnBasket #Wool #YarnManufacturing #WoolYarn #Yarn #Knitting #Crochet #WoolProcessing #FromSheepToSkein #YarnHistory #WoolMill #FiberArts

The Original Granny Square? Sams Yarn Basket 2026-08-21 | 🧶 Hook and Sip: Can I Re-Create the First Known Granny Square?Welcome to another Hook and Sip! ☕🧶This week, we're stepping back into crochet history and taking on a rather fascinating challenge:Can I recreate the very first known published Granny Square — using nothing but the original image?Long before we called them Granny Squares, this design was described as an “afghan square” for a “crazy” afghan. The design was created by Mrs Phelps and was published circa 1885, making it one of the earliest known published examples of what we now recognise as the Granny Square.But here's the challenge…👉 There is no modern pattern for me to follow.👉 I'm working from the historical image of the square alone.👉 I'm going to see if I can work out the construction, stitches and techniques for myself!Will I manage to recreate it?Will I get completely lost somewhere in the middle?Or will this little piece of crochet history reveal its secrets?Come along, grab your favourite drink and some yarn, and let's find out together!This is crochet, history and a little bit of detective work — all rolled into one. 🧶🔎☕ Support Sam's Yarn BasketIf you enjoy my content and would like to help support the channel, you can do so here:💜 Ko-fi:Ko-fi – Sam's Yarn Basket💜 PayPal:PayPal – Sam's Yarn Basket🛍️ Sam's Yarn Basket Etsy Shop:Etsy – Sam's Yarn Basket🧶 Ravelry:Come and join me on Ravelry for crochet, knitting, projects and community fun.🧦 THE SOCK CHALLENGE:Want to take part in the Sock Challenge?

The Golden Fleece Sams Yarn Basket 2026-08-17 | Fiber Film Club: Vicuna Yarn – The Golden FleeceJoin me for a fascinating episode of Fiber Film Club as we travel high into the Andes to discover one of the rarest, finest and most luxurious animal fibres in the world — vicuna!Often called the “Golden Fleece” or the “Fibre of the Gods,” vicuna has been treasured for thousands of years. During the time of the Inca Empire, it was so highly prized that vicuna garments were reserved for royalty.But what makes this little wild camelid's fleece so extraordinary?In this episode, we'll explore:🦙 What exactly is a vicuna?Where these beautiful animals come from and how they live in the high Andes.✨ Why is vicuna fibre so special?We'll look at its incredible fineness, softness, warmth and unique characteristics — and compare it with other luxury fibres such as cashmere.✂️ How is vicuna fibre harvested?We'll discover the traditional chaccu, where wild vicunas are carefully rounded up, shorn and released. Modern sustainable harvesting allows the animals to remain alive while providing an important source of income for Andean communities.💰 Why does vicuna cost so much?A single animal produces only a tiny amount of usable fibre, and the processing is incredibly labour-intensive. The fibre must be carefully sorted and dehaired before it can become luxurious yarn or fabric.🧶 What can you make with vicuna?From exquisite yarn and knitted garments to scarves, shawls and luxury cloth, we'll look at how this precious fibre is transformed.🌎 The conservation storyVicunas were once hunted almost to extinction, but international protection and carefully managed harvesting have helped their populations recover. We'll look at how fibre production can actually contribute to conservation — and why ethical sourcing matters.💎 And, of course… just how expensive is vicuna today?We'll take a look at the fascinating world of vicuna fibre, yarn and luxury textiles and ask whether this really is the ultimate fibre for fibre lovers!So grab your favourite project, make yourself a cuppa and settle in for another Fiber Film Club journey into the wonderful world of fibre!🧶 Stay Connected with Sam's Yarn Basket☕ Support me on Ko-fi:Ko-fi – Sam's Yarn Basket💰 PayPal:PayPal – Sam's Yarn Basket🛍️ Visit my Etsy Shop:Sam's Yarn Basket on Etsy🧶 Find me on Ravelry:Sam's Yarn Basket on Ravelry📘 Join me on Facebook:Sam's Yarn Basket Facebook Page💕 Thank you for supporting Sam's Yarn Basket!Don't forget to like, subscribe and share if you enjoy travelling through the fascinating world of fibre with me.All for Yarn, Yarn for All! 🧶💕🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

A Hat Made With Love 💗 | Soft Crochet Chemo Hat for Comfort & Support Sams Yarn Basket 2026-08-12 | 💗 Hook and Sip – A Supporting Gift | Full TutorialToday’s Hook and Sip is a very special project, made with love, kindness and support in mind. 💗In this full crochet tutorial, we’re making a soft, lightweight chemo-friendly hat that can be given as a thoughtful gift to someone who is going through cancer treatment, has lost their hair, or simply needs a little extra warmth and comfort during a difficult time.This hat is made using lightweight 4-ply yarn, which is equivalent to US #1 / fingering / sock-weight yarn. The result is a beautifully soft and lightweight hat that is cool and comfortable to wear, making it particularly suitable for someone who may find heavier hats too warm or uncomfortable.But this hat isn't only about cancer treatment. ❤️It can also be made simply as a gift of support for someone you love — a way of saying “I'm thinking of you, I'm here for you, and you're not alone.”The pink ribbon is a symbol of support and can be adapted or changed to suit the person you're making it for. You could make the hat in their favourite colour, add a different colour ribbon, or leave the ribbon off completely.🧶 In this tutorial we'll cover:• Making the lightweight crochet hat• Working with 4-ply / fingering-weight yarn• Creating the supporting ribbon• Joining and finishing the pieces• Tips for making the hat soft, comfortable and wearable• Ideas for personalising your finished giftWhether you're making one for a family member, friend, loved one, or someone in your community, I hope this project brings a little comfort and reminds someone that they are cared for. 💗A small handmade gift can carry a very big message of love.🧶 Come and support Sam's Yarn Basket☕ Support me on Ko-fi:Ko-fi – Sam's Yarn Basket💰 Support via PayPal:PayPal – Sam's Yarn Basket🛍️ Visit my Etsy shop:Etsy – Sam's Yarn Basket🧶 Find me on Ravelry:RavelryIf you enjoy crochet, knitting, yarny projects, tutorials, chats and plenty of crafty fun, make sure you subscribe to Sam's Yarn Basket and join our lovely yarny community.And if you make one of these hats, I'd absolutely love to see it! 💗Remember: handmade isn't just something you make — it's something you give from the heart.#HookAndSip #SamsYarnBasket #CrochetTutorial #CrochetHat #ChemoHat #CancerSupport #CrochetForACause #HandmadeWithLove #CrochetGift #FingeringWeightYarn #4PlyYarn #CrochetForCancer #PinkRibbon #CancerGift #CrochetCommunity

Grab a Project and Unwind. Sams Yarn Basket 2026-08-10 | 🧶🎬 Fibre Film Club: The British Evolution of KnittingWelcome to the very first episode of Fibre Film Club! 🍿🧶For our opening feature, we’re travelling through the history of knitting in Britain — from humble beginnings and practical necessity to royal fashion, wartime knitting, the decline of the local wool shop, and the incredible resurgence of knitting we’re seeing today.How did knitting become such an important part of British life? And how did a craft that was once considered an everyday necessity become a beloved hobby rediscovered by a whole new generation?We’ll take a journey through some fascinating moments in British knitting history, including how a Prince helped make Fair Isle knitting fashionable, the influence of royalty and fashion on what ordinary people knitted, and the important role knitting played during times of war and hardship.But our story doesn't end there...After decades when knitting was sometimes dismissed as an old-fashioned pastime, yarn shops began disappearing from our high streets and fewer people were learning the craft. Yet knitting wasn't gone — it was simply waiting for its next chapter.Today we're seeing a wonderful revival. Independent yarn shops are returning, younger generations are picking up needles, social media has created enormous knitting communities, and people are rediscovering the simple joy of sitting down with two needles and a ball of yarn.So grab your favourite knitting project, settle into your chair, and bring your popcorn! 🍿🎬 This is Fibre Film Club — where every week we explore the stories, history, people and fascinating facts behind the fibre crafts we love.And remember...Don't talk about Fibre Film Club. 🤫🧶💕 Support Sam's Yarn BasketIf you enjoy the show and would like to support what I do, you can find me here:💰 PayPal:Support Sam's Yarn Basket on PayPal☕ Ko-fi:Buy me a coffee on Ko-fi🧶 Etsy:Visit the Sam's Yarn Basket Etsy shop🧵 Ravelry:Find Sam's Yarn Basket on RavelryThank you for helping me keep the yarn flowing and the stories coming! ❤️#FibreFilmClub #KnittingHistory #BritishKnitting #HistoryOfKnitting #Knitting #YarnCraft #FairIsle #KnittingCommunity #SamsYarnBasket #YarnShop #KnittingRevival🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
