Lol gotta love husband math. We'll just go with their number 🤣Thanks for sharing all of your plans! I love learning new things, I've never heard of Miro before. I can't wait to use it to make my make 9 for this year!
I’m so impressed with your use of technology! I really enjoyed coming along with you during your planning process. Happy 2025 Knitting!
Happy new year! I am excited to follow your knitting/making journey this year))
Wow. Such a great plan.
Loved watching your thought process for both inventory and making.
I am hyper ventilating watching you. I could never inventory my yarn it would take me a month. I do track in and out and yardage used each year. Wish I could enter it all in Rav but no way. Great video!
I think the reason it wasn't too bad is that I have been logging all my yarn into ravelrry since I started knitting again in 2020. If I'd had to log all of that from scratch, that would've take a long time But I do think the value of it all being logged is so helpful in knowing what I have for projects
Yea, I was close! I guessed 400😁
That's a lot closer than Shane was!!!
I love your podcast. Saw this on Ravelry for the Traveler. Your insight is helpful. Could you possibly answer a question about the hood. In the first transition row, when it says to the end of the row, does it mean end of the transition row or to the end of the complete row? Thanks so much
Thanks! I'm so glad you checked it out. Foe the transition rows, you want to work to the end of the complete row. So transition row 1 is purling to the end of the row, resolving any double stitches, then transition row 2 is knitting across the complete row, also resolving the remaining double stitches.
Merry Christmas!
I have made the sopie shawl as well. I made it a solid color, but now, looking at yours, I want to make it again in a verigated. Beautiful, plus, now I want a croissant lol
Thanks for the update, Kristen.
lol editing Kristen is soooo smart!! ❤
I love the idea of a weekly Vlgomas. It’s just easier to stay current as a video consumer. Love your updates!
I so enjoyed this, thank you.
Sherwood needs a blanket to snuggle with.❤️❤️
A weekly advent is so much easier to keep up with even from the watching side. I cannot believe you can work a mitt in a day. Wonderful.
Sherwood is absolutely precious 🐾 ❤ I love the quilt behind you!
great idea steaming the beginning of the hat-can you share the name of the steamer you use
Hi! I got my steamer from Target. It is called the Conair Turbo Extremesteam
Thanks for catching us up with your November projects, I love the Gambit Cowl and the Sophie Scarf you made. ETA Your handspun is gorgeous
Kristen, Your handspun is absolutely gorgeous. I for the most part share your color pallette, and honestly almost any shade of green makes my heart sing. Beautiful projects, and just curious, when you were in Germany during the Christmas season you have had a circular Moose carousel that if memory serves me correctly was made out of wood. Do you know what I am talking about, and if so where did you get it. I look forward to seeing it, because again like you I love Moose.
I made knee socks with mine.
You do you, and I'll be here to watch whenever you can post. 🫶
Had to laugh when you said 'we're not super interesting people'. I'll be watching no matter when the videos come out.
Absolutely sticking around! What a great weekend treat it will be! I am excited to watch the hat and socks take shape. I have the Woolens and Nosh advent this year. I am sticking to a stripe a day, but I’m only trying to keep up on one sock. I figure that I will binge the other when I have time.
Happy Vlogmas! Looking forward to keeping up with you weekly and seeing your progress on projects. I love the idea of steam blocking the start of your Musselburgh for a more accurate measurement. Going to start doing that too 😉
Happy vlogmas! I used to steam these with my iron until I got the steamer and I think it's just so helpful for the superwash yarns. My first Musselburghs ended up stretching so I think this helps!
@@DoSoKnitsdefinitely going to try this
Happy Vlogmas, Kristen! Looking forward to your episodes whenever you put them out. Excited to see what you knit up.
Happy Vlogmas! I'm excited to knit up all of these goodies too, the projects are bringing a lot of joy right now!
Every 3 days or even weekly vlogs sound great! It is only the first week and I am already behind....I hate to feel like I'm letting the content creators down by not watching but work and family are a huge part of my day. I had almost 4 hours worth of vlogmas videos yesterday!
I know it can feel overwhelming, but don’t stress about keeping up! I know I'm also feeling like I have a ton to watch and keep up with too, but I'm trying to just keep the mindset that December should be calm and cozy this year. I’m so happy you watched!
So glad you’re doing vlogmas!! No problem post when you can it’s good seeing you and your dog!!❤️❤️
So nice to see you for Vlogmas, Kristen. Weekly vlogs sound ideal 🙌🏻❤️
Thanks so much! I think weekly is going to be much more manageable for me, too.
It was a lovely long catch-up, Kristen. Great to see you!
Shane’s Traveler looks so good! I love that color. I recently finished knitting this pattern in the crewneck and think I’ve worn it every day since. I can’t wait for the release of the grid gambit. The bandana style is my favorite to wear. I started spinning my CC for it while watching.
Thank you SO much for testing, the deep dive into the pattern, and the shout out!! Your feedback on this pattern made the final version so much clearer (Part 1 and Part 2 so the cables are FULLY separated out in the pattern - LOL!!) You're the best!
Great to see you! You’ve made some very lovely pieces! I think your dress form looks more like a Trixie than a Gertrude FWIW. Happy making
love your podcasts--would like in depth project videos-helps us who are out here on our own-love acquisition -shows us products we might not be exposed to
Hi Kristin. I was happy to see another video from you. I don’t feel like you need to explain your schedule/choices to me as a subscriber. I mean, this content is free so I’m just grateful to you and other podcasters for providing this opportunity to connect with knitters around the world via TH-cam. So, whatever you want to share makes me happy. I do love to hear about yarn/knitting travel, yarn stores and festivals and the sharing of purchases that knitters have decided to make. I’m always interested in yarn choices for specific patterns….why did you pick the yarn that you did for the project? I’ve been watching you since the beginning and enjoy your content.
I find queuing up projects to be very satisfying. It helps me remember why I bought specific yarns, and even if I change to something else down the road I at least know what I had in mind. I’m a visual person and just seeing all the things on screen is motivating. Great video.
It’s always nice to see a new DoSoKnits episode on TH-cam, Kristen. Monthly updates are great, and project/test knit vlogs appeal to me. I enjoy hearing you talk about and sharing your spinning, be it wheel or spindle fluff. You do you and we’ll be here for it 😊 Best regards from your friend in Tasmania 🙌🏻
I love using the stash functions in Ravelry for all of the reasons you’ve mentioned. I am always dreaming about my next projects and having the yarn already in Ravelry helps me to easily search and see what others have made from a particular ball of yarn. I recently started weighing my leftovers so that I can better track usage and kind it very satisfying.
Oh I just found your channel and you have the most beautiful voice 😮😍
Aww, thank you so much. That is so kind
Love the new format. I’d love to see a knit with me type vlog from you❤ Hope you are doing well. I’ll text you soon.
I love the monthly podcast with other videos idea--it can be so hard to have "content", especially if you're focused on one or two things at a time. The pressure is so real. Selfishly, you know I'd love to see a test knit vlog. Ha ha! Also, I've been eyeing my copy of Knits About Winter and am seriously considering casting on the Eastwind jacket after seeing yours. :)
Love your podcast & whatever timing works for you is great. I love your content just as it is but a project vlog, especially on a test knit, will be interesting.
It’s so great to see you! Monthly makes a lot of sense. I would love to see acquisitions!
Would acquisitions as a part of podcasts make sense or as separate videos?
Love your podcast! What happened to your hair?
I was tired if growing it out, so I cut it short again.
I would love to see a project vlog!
It would be fun to see all what you’ve knit in the years you’ve been knitting ❤
I think your ideas for posting videos are great. Love the items you knit! I would love to see your acquisitions each month. 😀🧶😀
Would acquisitions as a part of podcasts make sense or as separate videos
@@DoSoKnits If you have a lot of acquisitions it would make sense. If there are only a few then it probably wouldn’t. 😀
Thank you for this information
Great to see you back!
Happy to see you back after a much deserved break! I watched another flock haul video and that they purchased the Manor collection too and it looked so good. I was so happy to be able to find it and order the sport base from the Modern Skein, I got the light brown Aberdeenshire to make a Traveler Crew. It's soo soft and squishy!
