Vacation Vlog: Exploring Ohio
During my vacation, I've been enjoying my time in Ohio, and in this segment, I'll be giving you a glimpse into my adventures. I apologize for the break in YouTube shorts as I took a break from posting to fully enjoy my vacation.
Airbnb Tour: Vintage Charm and Quirks
Let me take you on a tour of the Airbnb I'm staying in. This vintage place in Ohio is a hidden gem. From the beautiful wallpapers to the stunning chandeliers, this house exudes a unique charm. I'll show you each room, from the lovely dining area to the cozy fireplace. Prepare to be amazed by the intricate details and aesthetics.
Crocheting Project: Mouse in Suitcase
Now, let's get into the exciting part of this vlog: crocheting a cute little mouse in a suitcase. I'll walk you through the entire process, from planning the project to putting the final touches. Get ready for a delightful crafting experience!
Planning the Project: Picking Yarn and Colors
Before starting the crocheting process, I need to plan out the project. I'm visiting my grandma who has a wide collection of yarn, which makes it easier for me to choose the perfect colors. I'll show you how I decide on the yarn and colors to match the vibe I want for the mouse and the suitcase.
Hiking Adventure: Enjoying Nature
Taking a break from crocheting, I decided to go on a hike. Join me as I explore the scenic trails and capture some beautiful moments of nature. It's essential to take breaks and enjoy the surroundings during a vacation.
Car Crocheting Session: Time Lapse and Accidental Injury
While traveling in the car, I utilized the time by working on my crochet project. I'll share a time-lapse video of me crocheting in the car. But beware, a little accident happened when I accidentally stabbed myself with a pair of scissors. Learn from my mistake and remember not to play with scissors!
Progress Update: Inner Pieces of the Suitcase
Let's check the progress of the crocheted inner pieces of the suitcase. I followed the pattern and made sure to create a pink inner part. I'll show you the panels and explain the number of rows required for each section.
Finishing Touches: Pillow, Blanket, and Mouse
After completing the inner parts of the suitcase, it's time to add the additional elements. I'll show you how to make a matching pillow and blanket for the mouse's comfort. Plus, I'll introduce you to the adorable little crocheted mouse that will reside in the suitcase. It's an incredibly cute pattern that requires minimal sewing.
