I love your sweater design!

Your colourwork advent raglan is turning out so gorgeous! My name suggestion is rather descriptive, but I think the Flower Tile Sweater would sound really cute 💕 sending you hugs and well wishes for your job situation!

Your colourwork raglan looks amazing!! I look forward to seeing the colour shifts in the advent you're using for it. Even in just two colours, it will be a stunning design.

I love how the Nora Neck turned out! It still looks good enough to eat! 😊 I love the sweater you are designing and the pattern looks like tiles to me. It sort of reminds me of a board game with tiles called Azul. Speaking of games, we have the board game version of Stardew Valley-it’s one of the cozy games I have on the list to get played this year. Thinking of you! Hang in there!! ❤❤❤

I am also sorry that public health funding has been cut. You are wise to be circumspect on social media. Love the color work raglan you are designing. How about "Starflower" for a name. Wishing you all the best!

Your flower sweater design is beautiful!!! Sorry things are going the way they are right now. ❤

Oh I love Stardew!! I wish you a lot of cosy knitting and playing

It was so lovely to see what you’ve been working on❤ we’re gonna get through these next few years 🥹

Your colour work design is stunning! And sending you all the best wishes with *everything* - it’s so tough out there right now.

Thank you so much for providing a bit of a distraction during these scary times. I’m so sorry your job is caught up in all this chaos. I can’t imagine how unbelievably stressful that must be. I always love watching your podcast 😊

My canadian heart is with u ❤

I have playing SO much stardew lately!!! It’s such a comfort game for me (has been for a while) and I hadn’t played in a while but I restarted a new farm using the stardew valley expanded and its hooked me back in and definitely taken away from my knitting time haha

Fellow US based global/public health girlie here - I can totally empathize with what you’re going through in your work and it’s been a really stressful and uncertain time ❤ Unrelated to knitting and government issues but you look absolutely gorg in this video

the blueberry patch on your beanie is just too cute!! it gives it a bit of a 90s vibe in my opinion, in the best way possible.

Liked, already a subscriber, and just bought your pattern! Hugs from 🇨🇦 😊

My jaw DROPPED when you showed your colorwork design! That is so gorgeous!! Also, loved the embroidered patch you sewed onto your hat, it's such a cute idea:)

I'm from Canada and it's been hard watching what's happening in the USA. I'm so sorry you're dealing with such uncertainty right now. Happy to watch when you're able to post. Also love your knits. As always they are beautiful ❤

Hey, do you have more info on the second garment you put into the cabinet? :)

Your bingo card is so cute! My knitting friend and I have been talking about making a knitting bingo card since the beginning of the year, and I'm so glad you shared yours so that we can use it as well! I hope you're able to have a more relaxed year <3

I love Drops Brushed Alpaca, I made my Mist Sleeves out of it. Drops Kid Silk is terribly itchy for me, I haven't used any other mohair yarns because of budget reasons.

Great suggestions! The climate in Australia does make mohair a bit tricky to wear. For these type of yarn comparison videos, I would find it helpful if you also mentioned the yardage of each of the yarns.

I have been waiting for this video since a few months ago when you showed us a look at your video plans lol

I'm finally getting caught up on TH-cam videos, and oh my goodness, that colorwork sweater looks like so much work! I really want to improve my stranded colorwork skills this year

That cabled swatch is ethereal especially in that yarn combo! I can't wait to see what you do with it :)

i did a WIPGO board this year!! i put projects i procrastinate on (many duplicate squares) and each month call 2 squares, then each square needs 4 days of working on it to fill the square. last year was my "mess around" year and it was really fun i hope you enjoy yours !!!! but spinning a sweater quantity of yarn is #1 actually really hard to do well, holy cow, huge learning curve, so do not feel bad if you dont get to that one, and #2 HAVE SO MUCH FUN

omg ! i also did aknitting bindo and i loooove the way that it helps keep me focused. i have almost the same graphic design and a whole video on how its helping to manage my stash HAHA

You inspired me to do 12 in 12 in 2024, and I think I'm gonna do it again this year! I have way too many single skeins of sock yarn sitting around anyway lol

Hello ! How do you call the "thiings" you're using to gather your needles in your case (still learning the knitting vocabulary in english) ? Where can I buy such things ?

mountains and seas 🩵

i LOVE the idea of a swatch bag!

Rush knitting a beret. I am also nosey in the way that makes me love "whats in my bag" videos. I was obsessed with the swatch bag. It's so cute and I need to make one.

Loved hearing you talk about the 2024 knits!

You made sooo many lovely pieces ❤

That is the cutest pear yarn display shelf ❤! Wishing you all the best for 2025! Happy crafting :)

I love these aesthetic videos!! I never thought balletcore was my style but you've proven me wrong 😍

So many fun goodies to play with in the new year. Not sure if this was intentional or just my hearing but I heard you say hiber-night (instead of hibernate) and I love this word play as it describes how we treat the winters on our homestead. Don't be disappointed about the lack of nylon. I find that my socks all wear in the same spot after several years of regular use regardless of fiber content. So if anything consider adding that nylon where you typically have wear and tear. I figure when socks wear out it's just a reason to keep knitting more!

The fish pouch is sooo cute! Interested to see how adding the nylon to the socks works. I've also seen some people use mohair, but no clue how well that wears lol

We got the same cable stitch book for a gift! 🎁 none of my gifts were a surprise, I asked for it, but that means no one wastes money on unappreciated gifts. I also got many balls of yarn 😅

Thanks for your videos! I have been knitting all my life and enjoy knitting content. You are by far my favorite You Tube knitter. I am also hypermobile. Have you tried strength training ? I did push ups to strengthen my forearms and no more wrist ganglions.I haven't had one since I was in my early thirties, and I knit even more now as I am retired.. Hypermobility does improve with age - my brother's hips were so loose he limped and couldn't really run as a child, and was excused from sports against his will. He ran marathons in his early sixties, until plantar fasciitis stopped him. But he doesn't limp anymore.

for your old-people reading kick... have you read 'The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared' by Jonas Jonasson (it's also been made into a movie and comics). If you haven't it's kind of different but a nice surprise. Thanks for a good year of chill-out time. And happy knitting in the New Year :)

This aesthetic is best described as The Burrows meets the The Weasleys. At least that's how I'd describe it. thanks for the recs, will check some of these out!

What is the mic you’re using in this video?

Love that you put these in chapters and a Ravelry bundle. Thank you!

Just wanted to add a shout-out to Starcrossed Knits! She has a lot of ballet-inspired patterns on her site. (And she has a fantastic youtube channel!)

I was a ballet dancer growing up and a dance major in college too! This is a great list clearly very well informed/researched! I too love that browns are becoming more common colors in place of nude/ballet pinks. It’s often listed out as part of the dress code for students/preprofessional dancers what colors they are allowed to wear for classes. I know for me in college, we could only wear neutral colors or dark gem tones for classes but we could go crazy for rehearsals (and we did). Once you get to the professional level everyone sort of just throws on whatever they have for their warm up layers and their outfits end up looking sort of funny sometimes but they are all super functional!

Please please please do whimsigoth next! I absolutely love these videos❤

I needed this! My daughter is in ballet. 🩰

This is so inspiring, I love the ballerina wrap so much!

I know you can't talk about every single pattern, but I would like to add: there's a beautiful free pattern for cabled leg warmers from Irene Lin, called Heidi Leg Warmers, but unfortunately there's only one size. But I think playing with gauge, there are still options. Also for wraps, Cara Wrap from Rebecca Clow is really nice and her patterns are great. And for bows, Fran Lopez has free pattern for a bow and she also has very cute beret with this bow.
