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 😮😍

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!

Love your podcast! What happened to your hair?

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. 😀🧶😀

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!

Purple Lamb fiberarts yarn has a stainglass sock line that has the black/white plied in the hand dyed that you might like.

If you are driving, you can take all of the yarn. If you are flying, I would suggest smaller skeins/projects.

Some nice projects and ideas there! Nice to catch up with you! I would take some small projects, so i would also say the Oslo hat and the 2 skeins for the Dotted Rays shawl :) Have fun and thanks for sharing!

I watched Amy from The Fat Squirrel, and she will be at WI Sheep and Wool. I am from WI. I always liked the cheddar cheese with salami in it. Also try and have some kind of meats from Usingers. I also love, love, love the brand Milwaukee Polish Pickles. If you can, get down to the lake front in Milwaukee. If you are not close, Madison is a great town. Enjoy family, festival, and of course, knitting. Kim

I can't help you deciding but when you held up the bigger vs the smaller cake I thought that as your knitting the bigger one will get smaller quite quickly! 😄

Have a lovely holiday, Kristen. It was great to catch up with you again.

Sister in law’s husband would be your brother in law at least that’s what I would say. I love the yarn you used for the Oslo.

Enjoyed hanging out with you! I'd say Dotted Rays- that yarn looks gorgeous and the Oslo Hat.Both easy for hanging with family and socializing at the festival. And Shane will have his hat ready for the cooler weather. Safe Travels! Have a great time!

For what it’s worth I am voting for the Dotted Rays. That yarn is really fun and will keep your interest and then you’ll have some thing to switch off from the traveler. 😊

It was so good to see you again. How fun that you were able to attend the festival. How did you do with all the walking? It will be fun to see what all the yarn becomes. Enjoy where you are today😊 Kim

Wow thank you for this information. I’m now going to sort mine out. I first used ravelry a few years ago to buy patterns. I then learned there was so much more to it but never got a good grip on it. I’m planning to move house next year and so o am going through the whole house including my stash. So now I feel o can do that a lot better!

Stupid question: what exactly IS a sweater quantity?

I also like to note ‘closest color’, esp with fancifully-named yarns Ike ‘salty dog;.

I’m so happy to see you ❤❤❤. Look at those new plants behind you😊😊. Beautiful knitting Kristen. I’m glad you took time for yourself and recognized that you needed a break. Love you friend❤

Question answered! Indeed, you were at Flock! I should have came over and said hi!

Maybe that loose plied yarn you could knit it with an added yarn and have almost a boucle effect. Cute cowl and hat maybe?

Hooray for Brave the Seasons getting you multiple bingo squares! I love them in that moody colorway. Wow!

You took a well deserved break but it’s good to see you back. I love all the yarn you got at Flock! It’s sounds like a really fun festival. 😀🧶

I finished the sock bingo black out this year too. It’s amazing how different our socks can be while ticking off the same squares. Flock sounds like a wonderful event to attend. Maybe someday.

Lovely to see you back. Flock sounded wonderful.

Hi Kristen, it was lovely to catch up after your summer break with such a long video. We all have our preferences for sock knitting needles. I started with dpns and they remain my preferred sock needles. It's good knitting weather in the southern hemisphere at the moment. I'm in progress with a pair of socks and a fingering-weight cardigan. Take care and I'm looking forward to more frequent updates.

I want to be you so I can knit all those sweaters and vests so quickly. Great job on the test knit. -A

It was such a special treat to spend my Friday night knitting and watching! It was a perfect way to end my work week. Love everything that you are doing. It’s so much fun to get a front row seat!

I'm not sure how to put in non full skeins into my statch. I get confused.

It’s lovely to see you, Kristen, and catch up on all your projects including the pretty embroidery. Waving hello from Tasmania 👋🏼

Hi i don't know if you still check this but i can't figure out how to add an ISO post to the destash page - or is that not the correct place to put it? help would be very much appreciated - Michelle

I love the way your corner to corner is coming out! It looks beautiful ❤

Gorgeous fiber! I love them both the dark jewel tone and the light that you chain plied. Loved watching!

As always, I truly enjoy your podcast . That scrappy blanket is going to be so cozy! I am so excited I won the sock set !! Thank you so very much ! I sent you an email, and I hope you have a wonderful week.

I am knitting the Spiral Knit Tube socks by Leef Bloomenstiel and they are fun to knit. Very different with no heel. It's a free pattern on Ravelry.

ICord maker? I didn’t know such a thing existed. What one do you use?

I don't really have any spring knitting planned. It's still quite cold here. My bulbs have bloomed but we had snow again last week so I'm not feeling too spring-y at the moment😄 P.S. Love the colors for the g****away 🙃

I love your hoodie! Now I want to make one. 😂 it will be nice for those cool spring evenings and mornings.

Great to have you back. Spring is here in the UK but it's chilly here. I'm knitting the crunkled socks currently, and wondering what to do next. Our next festival here will be Unravel Autumn for me.
