Becci Barlow returns after a month-long break with Flosstube #13, filmed on a warm Sunday in August. She apologises for the gap, explaining that summer holidays and a lack of motivation for filming have kept her away, though she has been busy crafting. The video is packed with content: one finish, three fully finished objects (FFOs), two new starts, and progress on three works in progress (WIPs). She also covers thread club acquisitions, a giveaway for her 200-subscriber milestone, and plans for an upcoming holiday to Cornwall.

Becci begins with a round-up of Flosstube videos she has been watching, mentioning several fellow stitchers and YouTubers, including SJ Stitches 2023, Butterfly Stitches, Charlie Feathers, and Welsh Tenor. She then shows her finish: 'Garden of Halloween Boy' by The Witchy Stitcher, stitched on 28ct Cashel in pearl gray/dove gray with DMC threads, including some sparkly DMC. This is followed by three FFOs: 'An Emblem of Love' by Modern Folk Embroidery, framed as a circular wooden plate; a wooden kit 'Pumpkin Ghost' by Sweet Annet; and 'Cheeky Frog' by Barbara Ana Designs, stitched on opal linen from Coffee Craft Fabrics and framed by Atelier Picture Framing.

Becci then discusses her WIPs and new starts. She shows progress on 'Sugar Glider' by Cottage Garden Samplings, 'Bee and Blossoms' by Samplers and Primitives, and 'Hearts Over Kings' by Letistitch, a full-coverage piece stitched on 16ct white Aida with Luca-S threads. She explains a complex issue with the Pattern Keeper file for 'Hearts Over Kings' that doubled half-stitch counts, which she corrected after a brain-frying afternoon. She also introduces two new starts: 'Spooky Halloween Patchwork SAL' by Historical Sampler Company, which she is keeping up with, and 'Mr Bones in the Garden' by Modern Folk Embroidery, stitched on 18ct black Aida with Classic Colorworks Antique Lace.

Beyond cross stitch, Becci shares her knitting and crochet projects, including a 'Boo Halloween Blanket' kit from Woolful, a 'Lily Pond Blanket' by Janie Crow, a 'Buttercup Fairy' from TOFT, and 'Dewey the Bookworm' from TOFT's summer competition. She also shows her 'Dancing Droplet' socks by Stephen West, knitted with yarn from The Little Grey Girl, and discusses her plans for holiday crafting. The video ends with details of her giveaway for a purple pouch with scissors and a handmade fob, open to UK residents only, with the entry word 'pouch'.
