Hang in there while we get back on track
Lauren
00:00:00 - 00:00:02
Wait. What's this? Wait. What?
Lauren
00:00:04 - 00:00:05
Woah.
Lauren
00:00:07 - 00:00:35
Hey, guys. What's up? It's Lauren, and welcome back to my channel, and also welcome back to DIY Master episode number 2. Episode number 2. That's 4. Episode we're we're not there. It's it's only episode number 2. So if you missed episode 1 of DIY Master, this is the show where I put my DIY skills up to the test against DIYs that are bigger and harder and more difficult than any DIY that I've ever done on my channel. Episode 1 was interesting.
Lauren
00:00:36 - 00:00:53
I just found out I was supposed to do 2 on every one. Yeah. She super does too. I'm not independent. I don't know if I can go on. Oh. So if you missed that, make sure to go watch that. Also, yes, I am aware that I had dark, dark hair for a hot 6 seconds, 6 days to be exact.
Lauren
00:00:54 - 00:01:20
And, now we're at this. And when I filmed the actual DIY portion of this video, I had the hair before the dark hair. It is exhausting being indecisive. Let me tell you. Anyways, I'm so excited for you guys to see the DIY that I attempted, and let's just hop right in. Just me and my my ball of yarn. Honestly, guys, I thought this is gonna be so different, but it's kinda like the Santa beard knit fabric. I'm really stressed.
Lauren
00:01:20 - 00:01:36
Also, guys, I'd like practice with a piece of yarn. Not gonna lie, there's a little bit of homework beforehand, but like I I I This this definitely could be the first one that is a fail. I'm a little unsure. Honestly though, if we pull this off, I'm gonna quit my job and just open an Etsy store that just sells big chunky knit blankets. And I make
Lauren
00:01:38 - 00:01:40
this my full time job because, they're too expensive and I'm not
Lauren
00:01:40 - 00:01:56
trying to pay a bajillion dollars for a blanket. Honestly, those are so soft. If this does work, people have a sick blanket. The lady said 4 lengths. So one 2, 3, 4. Big giant ball. Honestly, like, what do you have for how heavy
Lauren
00:01:56 - 00:01:58
this is? I'm gonna try to look
Lauren
00:02:00 - 00:02:09
So heavy. Wait. Do I remember gonna do this? Okay. And then she was like holding it, like and was this right? No. No. Okay. Like this and then like this. No.
Lauren
00:02:09 - 00:02:23
Wait. I gotta watch the latest video again. So we do it like this, and like this. Yep. Like this. Like this. Sorry? No. This is where like you could potentially get myself real quick.
Lauren
00:02:23 - 00:02:32
You're loopity like this. Lippity lippity like this, and pull tight. Oh, yeah. Ready? And then repeat. Okay. Wait. No. No.
Lauren
00:02:33 - 00:02:34
What do I do now?
Lauren
00:02:38 - 00:02:44
Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. Got got got it. We're back. We're back. We're back. 1 and 2.
Lauren
00:02:44 - 00:02:55
Oh, my gosh. Guys, it's happening. It's super happening. Oh, yeah. Guys, we got it. We got it. Is this kind of what I picture like a unicorn
Lauren
00:02:55 - 00:02:55
mane to feel like. Also, I used
Lauren
00:02:55 - 00:02:58
to knit, like, these little mini scarves because I was too impatient
Lauren
00:02:58 - 00:02:58
to knit an actual scarf when I was, like, 12, and I'm just,
Lauren
00:02:58 - 00:03:04
like, feeling very nostalgic right now. But I definitely didn't use my arm to knit. I definitely, like, use needles like a regular person
Lauren
00:03:09 - 00:03:10
does it.
Lauren
00:03:10 - 00:03:21
How many do we have? 1234567. Halfway there. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Oh, this is the end. Wait. What? This is the end? Oh, no. That's right.
Lauren
00:03:21 - 00:03:25
Is that right? Yeah. That's right. Wait. What's this? Wait. What? Woah.
Lauren
00:03:29 - 00:03:33
Did I rip my head? What are you? Oh my god.
Lauren
00:03:33 - 00:03:36
Maybe because it's like cobwebs I ripped it. No.
Lauren
00:03:37 - 00:03:46
I'm so sad. I have a whole sleeve of wool. That is so sad. I'm so sad. Yo. I'm so sad. Oh, no. Okay.
Lauren
00:03:46 - 00:03:47
Let's try it again.
Lauren
00:03:50 - 00:04:07
I've created a new sleeve, and I've got lots of slack because we're not gonna break the cobweb again. That was some BS. I'm still sad my heart about it. But honestly, this took like 4 seconds. It's also so soft. Like, if I ever move back to Canada, I'm just gonna make myself a whole sweater of this. Okay. So I'm gonna watch that lady do the next part because this is the part I did not practice.
Lauren
00:04:07 - 00:04:11
Also, guys, I'm literally just, like, transferring this whole thing onto the other arm.
Lauren
00:04:11 - 00:04:19
Okay. Woah, lady. Going crazy. What just happened? What? What? What? What? Yeah.
Lauren
00:04:20 - 00:04:36
Then she's taking this back guy. What is going on there? What is that step? Pulls it up. Goes around. Oh. Oh. Oh. And then this one goes over. Oh.
Lauren
00:04:36 - 00:04:40
I see. I see. I see. Okay. And then woah. Woah.
Lauren
00:04:40 - 00:04:42
Things are going crazy.
Lauren
00:04:42 - 00:04:52
Is this right? Oh, God. I need to back it up. I need to back it up. Okay. Wait. And here, I missed, like, one split second, and now I all messed up. Okay. So I did that already.
Lauren
00:04:52 - 00:05:01
There's 4 on here. Oh, okay. Okay. Here we go. We're back. We're back. We're back, y'all. Over pull look at y'all.
Lauren
00:05:02 - 00:05:03
I think I messed up.
Lauren
00:05:03 - 00:05:08
No, maybe not. Maybe not. Maybe not. No. What are you? You don't belong in a blanket. She stopped. She's like now to
Lauren
00:05:08 - 00:05:12
the 2nd row. She just left me. Hang on. Let's scooch everybody up. Yep.
Lauren
00:05:13 - 00:05:15
Yo. We're making a blanket.
Lauren
00:05:16 - 00:05:21
It can only be the length of my arm, which is probably gonna end up being a blanket for Moose because it's not gonna be that big.
Lauren
00:05:21 - 00:05:23
But we're making a blanket, y'all.
Lauren
00:05:23 - 00:05:34
Oh, my god. Also, I'm realizing that at some point, I'm gonna have just, like, a giant blanketed arm. It's gonna be good. Alright. Next arm. Next arm. I feel like once I get it, we'll just like go.
Lauren
00:05:34 - 00:05:35
We're just gonna
Lauren
00:05:35 - 00:05:42
bang out some blanket. I look like I also have like Gandalf on my arm. More like professor Dumbledore. They're all here.
Lauren
00:05:42 - 00:05:43
Yeah. They're
Lauren
00:05:43 - 00:05:51
all here. Woah, lady. Okay. We have that. This. Oops. What is oh. Oh.
Lauren
00:05:51 - 00:05:56
Just kidding. We're fine. We're fine. It's all fine. Wait. She's letting go. She's letting go. Oh, god.
Lauren
00:05:56 - 00:06:25
I'm so stressed. So I look really stupid right now. I feel really stupid. I got it. I got it. I think we just go all the way Oh, no. That's a really big haul. Guys, we're having episode 1 happen all over again.
Lauren
00:06:25 - 00:06:48
I keep filming around lunchtime, and I'm so hungry. But I have stupid Gandalf on my arm, so I can't even go eat. Honestly, depending on how long this takes, we might just have to bring Gandalf downstairs, and we'll just have a a family lunch with Gandalf, Dumbledore, Santa. It looks so good, though. Like, low key? Yo. I'm coming for all y'all grandmas. Oh, sorry. I didn't see you there because I'm knitting a mother freaking blanket.
Lauren
00:06:49 - 00:06:52
Look at this thing. Yo. We're making a blanket,
Lauren
00:06:52 - 00:07:01
like an actual blanket. There's, like, a few holes and there's a few, like, hairball stuck in here, but mother freaking blanket. Yo, Gandalf. This yo beard.
Lauren
00:07:01 - 00:07:03
This yo beard, bro. The update status on our roll.
Lauren
00:07:03 - 00:07:25
So, like, I don't know how much longer I have of this because it's, like, getting tighter. Super starving still, so might have to get lunch soon with Gandalf. But yo, Moose gon' be so happy about this. Alright. Seriously, all y'all grandmas, I'm coming for you. Okay. I'm just a knitting pro now. I knew I was like an old person at heart, but like, I'm really feeling it right now.
Lauren
00:07:34 - 00:07:40
Go. Go. Oh my god. I need a motherfucking blanket. I am so perfect. Yeah.
Lauren
00:07:40 - 00:08:03
We're gonna take a lunch break, but the blanket has come with me because it's attached to my arm. That's problematic a little bit. At least I'm gonna dye in this nice blanket. Also, guys, I've got this end tucked into the side of my pants and the excess tucked into the side of my pants. I told you this series is gonna be, like, mostly just me struggling. 50% DIY, 50% struggling. A 100% fun.
Lauren
00:08:05 - 00:08:06
Guys, like,
Lauren
00:08:06 - 00:08:11
I think I think I think we did it. Literally think this is, like, this is it. Oh my god. I'm sorry, Gandalf.
Lauren
00:08:11 - 00:08:11
No.
Lauren
00:08:12 - 00:08:25
Oh. Oh. Oh. That's it. That's, like, literally it. Wow. Why was this so much easier than knitting anything I've ever knit in my entire life? Literally, like, I'm never gonna knit with anything that's super tiny ever again. Like, why would you? This is great.
Lauren
00:08:25 - 00:08:42
And we're just gonna have this a little bit. Hide hide it hide it. Okay. The last knot is done. Yo. We made a moto freaking blanket slot. This was so much bigger than I thought it was gonna be. Sorry, Moose.
Lauren
00:08:42 - 00:09:01
I know that we talked about this being yours, but I have to take it back. I'm sorry. Wow. This is soft, like, low key too. You could be like, oh, thanks for the snack. Oh, you're handing me a drink? Thanks. Oh, you need the TV remote? Thanks. Yo, honestly, if anyone comments fail in the comments down below, I'm just gonna disregard it because this was a nail.
Lauren
00:09:01 - 00:09:02
We nailed this.
Lauren
00:09:02 - 00:09:04
We so nailed it. I can't believe it.
Lauren
00:09:04 - 00:09:08
This only took, honestly, an hour of focus knitting. Matt, what do we think?
Lauren
00:09:08 - 00:09:09
It's a blanket.
Lauren
00:09:09 - 00:09:10
It's a blanket.
Lauren
00:09:10 - 00:09:26
Mother of a freaking blanket. It's a mother of a freaking blanket, y'all. So So I

one out. And let me know in the
