How To Crochet, Sleeping Bags, PA, Thread Heads

I can't believe you are in Troy and Bradford, I was born is Sayre and have been to both these towns and my parents have many stories from their earlier married life in Troy and Bradford.

flowers look really easy.  sleeping blankets are really great. keep it up

Oh my gosh, those sleeping blankets are AMAZING

How cool?!  Upcycled goods to help others.  The use of ties for the ties, funny and functional at the same time.  Can ya'll do a tut on how to make those sleeping bags?  I kinda see how it's made, but I want to be sure to get it right.  Plus, it may be good to show during this time of need in our country. I am sure there are plenty of homeless that would need them.

This is for real fantastic.  I am learning to crochet and this helps a lot, thanks.  That sewing circle is hardcore awesome, too!  I mean, what a totally worthwhile reason to craft with friends once a week!

any one know what a 'four crochet stitch' is? i need serious help

this is probably my most favourite Threadbanger episode - i love the intragenerational D-I-Ying. gratitude and love to all those grannies, aunties, and progressive momma's who were DIYin be it was hip... hell i remember trying to go to sleep as a 5 year old and hearing my moms sewing machine buzzin away downstairs at all hours of the night - creating magic...

much respect trail blazers,

Your aunt made it to fast...

Is not your family and hometown just the best in the whole world. I think so.  Thank your aunt for the great tut. 

maybe i'm just special ed or something, but they go too fast for me to keep up with in this video.

just discovered your site last week, am so excited and am telling everyone who will listen.  Great! Hope to let everyone in Dublin and Ireland and France and England know about this.  Loved the slack dress.

YAY I finally got it. It took me a few times, but I did it.!! ^_^

Corinne. I really like your shirt at the begining, its really super cute. 

that was great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but im a guy and dont wear flowers that often... so isnt there somthing rely like cool 4 guys that u can do with crochet?

o my goodness!!!!! corinne i am from troy as well i honestly thought that noone but the people who lived there know where it is. i love your guys site it rocks my socks to the maxx!!! keep up the awesome work

wow your family is bigger than mine.

ok that was nice ??? i think????

What a hoot!! I saw things I've been doing for YEARS and in some cases GENERATIONS. The ski masks. I made the one that looks like a girl in'79? My oldest, now a lawyer, loved it, wore it all winter. The paint a messed up shirt, I have one waiting for me right now. My middle daughter won a best in show at the 4H fair with a redone stained turtleneck. And the drawstring jumper, that is how my mother made my summer nightgowns. Everything old is new again!! Keep it up, you're turning into me (it's OK I'm nice).

love your website,thanks for mentioning the sleeping bag project.  Flo. 

FYI for those who are interested in more info about the sleeping bags for the homeless in this episode. I went looking for it and thought it should be shared.

great episode, but its really confusing.

Hey, next time you're in town, e-mail me :P

I DID IT!!! It took some time but I really did it. Thanks Corinnne and Aunt Nett!!

Hey, cool, Troy's right down the road from here.

hes probabally going to sell the blanket and get drunk...lol

Hey yall, i got a myspace music page set up now, the name is: The Nautilus Shell , check it out if you get the chance.

heyyy threadheads! i looove all of your videos!! i want ot try them all... my boyfriend and i tried the coffee stain with the jeans this weekend and it didn't work. we listened to all of the directions... but we used regular coffee not espresso.... could that be it?? i really want it to work!! thank you sooo much!

That was clever to be able to take a vacation and still find content for the show. I guess DIY truly is a National way of life. Was great to see how even the smallest of towns do their part to help the homeless and despite the small town, it seems they had big ideas (and big hearts). I cant wait to see next week's episode and who that sleeping bag goes to...it'll be a nice payoff to see the hard work gone to good use. 

thanks so much for the help. my sister and i r really into diy. and i'm really excited about making my flower. this is the fastest i've ever been helped out usually it's like ten episodes later because so many ppl ask for help so thanks. u guys rock.

really great episode!

What a great episode! Momma would be proud!!!  So are you starting a DIY commune, or what?! 

Rad episode!  I like that you two are on the road looking for awesome projects!

You make my Fridays!  Great episode.  Thanks.
