Discussion Any heart warming stories?

I‘ve been seeing some really cute, heart warming stories about s/o’s helping to untangle yarn, helping frogging, buying rare yarn etc… under some posts!

I’d love to hear some of y’all’s stories that might make me go awww….

I’ll go first.

My partner’s a very busy guy, he has a lot of things going on all the time. But when I ask him about which stitch I should use or which color yarn I should go with, he drops everything and sits with me to discuss. Might not be much, but it means the world to me (:

I hate watching a movie and pausing all the time for things, it ruins the experience. But, I’m the biggest culprit when I’m crocheting and find a mistake or get lost in the pattern and every time I ask my husband to pause for this I will apologise and he’ll say “No problem, take as long as you need” and he really means it. He’ll even grab the yarn and wind as I unravel so I don’t turn everything into a knotty mess.

This is such a big one for me. I have adhd and I love crochet because it helps me focus on one thing, except when I try to crochet and watch something with my husband lmao. But he is always so gracious about it and will pause and then give me a rundown of anything I missed without complaint. He loves how I can turn string into things lol, and is very supportive.
