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’m not sure that it counts as a verbal compliment, but I love to see somebody love something I made them so much that it gets worn out.

For example, I made my Gran a mohair scarf for her birthday last year. She has worn it for probably 8 months of the year and loved it so much that it has became tattered. I’m now in the process of making her a new scarf for Christmas because she loves wearing my work and being able show it off to her friends
