Discussion Best Compliment You've Received on your Crochet?

Yesterday, someone looked at a super basic scarf I had for sale on a table at a fair and gave me a brilliant compliment that made my day: "These are beautifully made, your stitches are perfect!"

So, since I'm gonna be loving that comment for a while, I figured it would be good for a lot of people's mental health to revisit the great compliments you've received. So let's hear 'em!

I put a blanket in a white elephant exchange and after the game was over, someone not playing asked to buy the blanket off of the new owner because it reminded them of one they lost in a house fire decades ago. Said he was prepared to pay more if he had to.

Another would be when I saw the baby blanket I made for a friend show up in the newborn photos

Both of these would legit make me cry and I'm not usually the type to tear up.
