Thanks for sharing your spinning efforts. I always like to hear how others resolve issues -- gives me hope that I can figure things out too! Your yarn looks fantastic. I just got my first wheel a couple of weeks ago and progress is slow but there is progress.
@beckyreeves8536 thank you & good luck with your spinning.
I was given a wheel but I have no idea what it is or how to use it. It also needs some maintenance
@marsy1480 see if you can find a local spinning group, they may be able to help you. Based on my wheel not bring used for 10 years after just 5 years of use before that. It did need a bit of a service: cleaning, change drive bands, oiling etc.
@@AnnikenAllis yes, there are classes at Ammonite Yarns as after La Mercerie closed in Cowbridge I had to find another place of yarn goodness 🤣🤣
@@AnnikenAllis I’m rather fancying weaving too!
Very entertaining! First spin looks great. Am looking forward to seeing it plied up! Hope you have a fab holiday ❤
@marsy1480 thank you. Looking forward to plying it when I get back.
I have a set of 35mm straight single point Karbonz I purchased one of those shorter 25mm ones actually by mistake, at the time I didn't realise single point needles came in that shorter length so I hadn't checked when I ordered them. Unfortunately they are too short to fit under the armpit which was how I learned to knit so I. Immediately replaced with a 35mm one. It was the experience of working with the Karbonz that enticed me into buying a complete set of them they were considerably smoother and lighter than any other needle. There is a proviso with that and that is the type of yarn your working with for very thin yarns they can catch the yarn slightly. I have recently picked up a set of interchangeable Karbonz to try get used to them and initially have been pleased with them but it's still a bit early to tell if they can prize me away from my straight needles or if they will stay in their packaging most of the time.
@@gges1605 I use Karbonz in my workshops, although these days most people use their own. But people liked them. I've not tried the Karbonz interchangeable. I imagine going from knitting with long straights & tucking the needle under your arm to circulars is quite challenging.
@@AnnikenAllis Yes it is very different I am also used to feeding the yarn with my right hand however I have noticed that with the smaller circular needles it may well be a much faster way to knit by using the left hand to feed the yarn so am going to try learn this method, I may need a little luck and a lot of patience lol. Thank you for taking the time to reply.
Thank you Anniken I have been knitting 65 years and recently knit for the first time top down fisherman’s rib cardigan with circular needles and found a mistake some rows down and really struggled repairing. This was using black yarn. What I learnt! Check each row 😂
@bevabberley1524 that's a challenging knit. Well done for fixing it.
Very helpful, thanks.
I wish I had been taught to read charts.
@SherriEvans-Stanton you can still learn to read charts. I was taught to read colour work charts as a teenager but when I started lace knitting I struggled with them. Once I realised I 'only' had to learn different symbols I found it easier. Now I struggle to knit from written instructions unless it's a very simple stitch pattern 😅
me too
You look great in that , you know what colours suit you . Enjoy your holiday .
@@NYKnitter thank you 😊
I don't do a lot of lace knitting, but tend to weave ends in as I knit, like when knitting two or more colours. Can you not do that with lace knitting
@mskla2185 you can, it depends on which method you use & how open the lace pattern is. It can sometimes show.
I'm a new subscriber
@@wendyhayne930 welcome. How did you find me? And what do you like knitting?
@@AnnikenAllis just looking on you tube for an easy knitting shawl,I’m enjoying making easy shawls and your joyful one caught my eye as great way to try a new stitch as well as show off some 4ply yarn I just bought
@@wendyhayne930 It's a fun shawl to knit. Happy knitting 😊
@@AnnikenAllisI'm still learning a lot but love shawls
The jumper is lovely and looks great - it's come out beautifully in the yarn. Enjoy your holiday 😊
@@DarylBatCarer-ms7od thank you 😊
Happy birthday and have a good holiday. It will give me time to recover from the pink overload 😂❤. Ooo yes, I live that erratic coloured top. It’s gorgeous. I love non even knitting. The lime green is yummy
@Hielancoo thank you 😊 I love pink overload 😁
Beautiful top Anniken ❤️❤️
@@marsy1480 thank you 😊
Thank you I struggle with weaving ends in lace and especially with plant fibers.
Thank you 💖
Thankyou. I always struggle with ends, probably because I hate that part 😂. Looking forward to the thin lace weaving in as I am going to try a shetland cobweb project ❤
Interesting to see weaving in of ends.
Can you make just basic color socks, this is too much with all the colors, honestly
@user-hh8eh7gb2j yes you can knit plain colour socks. I finished a pair of plain purple socks recently. I love all the colours though 😁😊 But there's sock yarn to suit all tastes. Rico & West Yorkshire Spinners do some nice solid colours.
Anniken I just finished knitting a blanket for a friend who during back surgery went instantly blind . I used dish towel patterns with her favotite things and made my own blanket pattern from them. I was thinking that the garter stitch is similar to Braile for the Blind and I also finished knitting 10 Baby Blankets for the Linus Club for Chariety,
@catharineking8640 oh wow Catharine, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. Back/spine operations are scary. I am sure she'll love the blanket. 💗
Get to the point
Never used or tried one (I often give my stuff away or never wear something at it's too nice to be used! 😂)so thank you for the reviews!
@@DarylBatCarer-ms7od nothing is ever too nice to be worn. 😁
Anniken the Gleener is the one i have.
@catharineking8640 it was my favourite for years but its a bit of a slow process.
This is a beautiful shawl pattern! I’m beginning your lace knitting course today & I’d love to make this.
@maryjohnson2656 thank you 😊
Thank you for the review. I have the heirloom set of Lantern Moon, and I really like them. I find the ebony wood has a great feeling. So most of my knitting now is done either by Lantern Moon needles or Chiaogoo needles as I love both sets (for different reasons).
@stephanelarochelle2484 I've been using my LM more lately so will definitely get some more.
I can’t keep up with all your lovely designs! I’m having a clear out and found a copy of an old knitter magazine. There are two of your designs in it waiting for me to cut them out and knit them. You’re a very busy lady indeed!
@@rosinagreenwell1143 thank you 😊
That shawl shape is fabulous 😍
@@marsy1480 thank you 😊
Anniken, I received your book in the mail today ( Monday) and it arrived in good condition and I look forward to learning new stitches and patterns. Thank you!
@@catharineking8640 brilliant, that's good to hear 😊
Thank you for all this information! We will be in Oslo in Sept, staying at the Thon Hotel Opera for 2 nights as a post-trip on a Viking cruise. (We are taking the train from Bergen.) I am hoping to get to FruKvist, and Glassmagasinet looks good as well. Do you know of Tollugata? I think it might be in the train station--??
@cwanlin128 that sounds amazing. Do you mean Tollbugata? It runs from just up from the Opera to where Fru Kvist is. You ought to go up on the Opera roof too. Great views. More fun in the winter when it's icy & you think you might slide straight into the Oslo Fjord 😬🤣 Munch museum is next door to the Opera. The National museum (Nasjonalmuseum) is also great but you could spend all day there. Not got the train from Bergen to Oslo since I was a teenager on a school trip. 😁 Have a fab trip!
@@AnnikenAllis thank you for the suggestions. I am hoping to go to the Munch Museum.
Would 240 beads be enough for the new shawl?
@janemacdonald5808 I'm so glad you asked as I've spotted I didn't put the amount of beads in the pattern 🤦♀️And neither I nor my tech editor spotted it in editing. I'm so sorry. Have updated pattern & listing. You need 167 beads 😊
What size hook did you use?
@@catharineking8640 0.75mm hook
Those club colours are beautiful
Hi, the lavender, in my opinion, will make a lovely sweater that will go with your colour ways. The other one will make a lovely bright shawl that will cheer up cold grey days.
I love The Principles of Knitting book ❤
Congrats to your daughter! 🎉
Thank you 😊
I’m pleased that I’ve become a new owner of one of your books! ❤️
@@marsy1480 thank you 😊
Those colours… love the grasshopper!
another vote for the grasshopper but that purple is rather lovely too
@@Fionadilston yes, it is also lovely and would suit Anniken greatly!
I was wondering if my newly purchased Gusto Carmen would be any good for your Joyful Shawl. Just bought a skein to make my aunty something
@marsy1480 if it has 800m per 100g it'll be perfect!
Evening Anniken, sorry about all your internet woes. My mobile screen has come away from the case I think because of a drop and the heat!
@marsy1480 oh no, that's not good. Finally got Internet back Wednesday evening!
@@AnnikenAllis good to hear!
Wow, you knit so fast!! I live near Oslo, and I will definitely visit this one day. I just started learning knitting so I can knit for my daughter 😊
@windyrainStorm thank you. There are some lovely yarn shops in Oslo but also in the towns near Oslo. Good luck with your knitting
I may be interested in your book on crocheting called Beyond the Square Crochet Motifs, please let me know what it will cost plus shippinf to US?
@catharineking8640 it's on my website www.yarnaddict.co.uk/ourshop/cat_1561537-DeStash.html & it'll calculate shipping automatically.
@@AnnikenAllis Thank you!
I like the purpley navy
It's Rum Paradise😀
@ruthcooling3921 thank you 😊
I just love all the pinks and purples.🩷💜🩷💜. QUIVIT from musk ox in Alaska
@@debbylovesyarn5148 pinks & purples are my favourites 😍
@@AnnikenAllis of course! I knew that. And they’re mine too 🤪
I enjoyed this video so much! You have inspired me to do the same ...someday😊
@kasaritababe thank you. I find tidying up my stash helps me discover forgotten gems
😋💜
That will be great. Thank you
Hi, I can highly recommend the brioche course. Tracey
@TraceyFord-gf6zp thank you Tracey 😊
Hi, just watching your u tube video. I put in an order last night, PLEASE could you hold it until you've finished de-stashing?
@TraceyFord-gf6zp I'm so sorry I just saw your comment & posted orders today. If you order more, leave a note with your order & I'll do free postage.
Mmmmm the yarn subscription ...is there an element of FOMO dear Anniken? I think if it's not bringing you joy to let it go and be aware that you can find the yarn elsewhere ...you also say you are not a DK using mama sooooooo ....
@@Fionadilston definitely FOMO 😁🤣😁
I have never seen this done before and I found it interesting!
@catharineking8640 thank you Catharine 😊
I've been using Knitpro Nova needles for about 2 months and love the needles. However, both the 60cm and 80cm cables have snapped.
@samanthakeogh2490 oh that's not good. I've had a few very old Knit Pro cables that I used for teaching snap.
