Welcome to Episode 7 of Stephanie’sThreads, a knitting, crochet and handmade textile podcast focused on thoughtful making, practical craft solutions, and intentional handmade living. In this episode, I’m sharing two finished gift hats, the Marrow hat and the Hill 60 hat. I'm also knitting a third hat to gift which is the Leaolea hat. Are you familiar with the viral Emotional Support Chicken from The Knitting Tree in LA? ESC's were even featured on CBS news due to their popularity! I'll show you how I finish my knit 'stuffies' with fabric scraps. You'll also meet the newest member of the ESC family, the Emotional Support Chicken Jr!

She’s stitched with love and snugged with soft yarn to be your personal comfort-companion, ready to lend a wing (or a cuddle) whenever life gets a little clucky. Whenever your day needs softening — give her a squeeze. May she bring you giggles, calm moments, and a steady reminder: you deserve kindness, warmth, and a little poultry-powered peace. Cluck-cluck and lots of yarny love. A Note on Keeping Ms. Rose Lovely & Fluffy Ms. Rose is filled with soft, eco-friendly fabric scraps that may gently settle over time — especially after many hugs, squishes, and heartfelt pep talks. If she ever starts looking a bit smooshed, don’t worry! She just needs a little “coop-side spa treatment.” To Re-Fluff Ms. Rose: Give her a few light shakes, as though she’s stretching her wings after a nap. Gently massage her sides and belly with your fingertips, moving the scraps around until she feels evenly puffed. If she needs extra lift, use your thumbs to press and fluff from the bottom upward — like helping a tiny chicken find her posture again. She’ll perk right back up, good as new — plump, perky, and ready for more emotional support adventures.
