I'm currently making this right now, may I know how did you do the cuffs? Did you knit them in the round or just knit it flat (then sew them later on)?

Looks great❤ In Europe it's also called a spencer (vest)

I love your channel!! You deserve so many more subscribers

I wish I wouldn't have bought so much cheap acrylic yarn when I was a brand new knitter, but I kinda went yarn crazy. Now I have all this yarn sitting here bc I don't wanna make anything with it and I pretty much exclusively use wool or cotton these days. I think it's better to invest in a smaller amount of good quality yarn than just buying as much cheaper yarn as possible, for me at least.

That you really do learn from every mistake you make. And that you can always start again and that's okay.

Wow, so pretty!

The sun glasses completed the look perfectly

So cool

You look lovely!

It looks amazing. The belt is really pretty.

It's such a great idea to do a "show and tell" of your own stash! It really does make it feel fresh and new, doesn't it?

I am working on my stash now. I think I'll be where you are at in a decade or two lol.

The bouclè yarn seems to be a bulky weight (right?) and have the exact composition of the recommended yarn for the Sugarplum Jumper by Fabel Knitwear, except for being bouclè, of course. But I wonder how this would influence the design. I had a bit of troubling meeting gauge with that one, but I absolutely love my finished project, and it was super quick to knit. If you have someone in your family that would like that design and this color, well, it's a match made in heaven

What a coincidence Guess who’s made a resolution to stashbust this pile gathering dust In my case into: plant holders, fingerless gloves, headbands, holiday gifts, a small messenger bag, and scarves. Wishing you luck!

I have gathered up my stash, workin through it with triple strand corner to corner blankets

Yes!!.

It doesn’t bother me that people connect knitting with grannies. I’m lucky to have been taught by my mother, who was taught by her mother, who was taught by her mother, and so on. For me it makes me feel connected to the women in my family throughout the generations. I still have a sweater that my grandmother made for me when I was a toddler and my daughter wore it too.

I find the argument that ohne is better than the other silly, just because so many people I know can do both. It is a tool for different outcomes

you just gave me permission to quit doubting doing a solely garter stitch wrap. it’s just what i enjoy. thanks! :)

I consider knitting, crochet, and weaving to be different ways of making fabric. What someone does with that fabric is up to them, so I've never agreed with the idea that one is better than the other.

Bonitos videos ! Gracias

I have been knitting since. I was 5 years old Simple’s things to begin with.

I like your comments. Two topics I wanted to toss my two cents into the pot on. 1. Men were the first knitter's. All of the knitting guilds in the UK and Europe were men only until after the 1950s. Those beautiful chullo hats from Peru that tourists clamor over are largely knitted by boys and young men. There are tons of stories of our soldiers knitting their own hats and socks from old and or holey yarn to prevent losing their feet and ears. It's only in recent times, in this neck of the woods (world) decided that only women, OLD women knit. So the more I see men and young peeps knitting it public the more my heart warms. 2. Crocheting isn't knitting with a hook. BUT Tunisian Crochet comes closer to that. We've had knitting machines for hundreds of years. To date there's not a machine that can crochet. I think that does make it more special in that way. Other than that it depends on the project on which is the better choice. Hats, scarves, sweaters can go either way. Socks should be knitted since they can move with your feet, crocheted fabric can't do that. If it's bigger than a baby blanket I'm not knitting that! I'll crochet it and be done in 25-% of the time. Lol. weavers, spinners, crocheters and knitters are all in the fiber family.... We can all work together.

In recent decades clothing has become cheaper to buy, hence the need to knit your own has gone, unless you want something unusual or specially designed for you.

The internet has really made all the fiber arts popular. It certainly has helped me.

I sometimes give my hands a 2to 3 days to rest from always crocheting knitting sewing, I use my hand grips or ball to help❤thanks for this video

Oh, I loved this video! I always dislike when people tell me things like "I can never do that", because usually it's a prelude to like, "so can you make this for me?" I think that you hit the nail on the head when you said that knitting is seen as a women's hobby, and so I think people don't put a lot of value on it, until they see the results unfortunately :(

There’s a muppet knitting a pirate flag on the ship in Muppet treasure island (towards the end of the movie)

It's interesting how much throwing a project in a bag/closet for some time can completely change your perspective. It's just so raw and emotional at first. 😭 Especially when you've put SO MUCH time and energy. It looks really nice now! Glad the yarn could get a second chance. P.S. I can't believe you used the Solstice Spencer pattern! It's been on my "to do" patterns list for a while. Thank you for the review! Now I know to change it into the round. I just love the stretchy, almost ribbed lace look. Hopefully it won't be too difficult for me. 😳

Pin curls are wound all the way around the finger and then shimmied down off the finger to the scalp.

i just tried it and it took me 42 minutes, pray for my hair tomorrow morning 😭🙏 so the results... idk if im just completely unused to seeing myself like this, but it feels weird? definitely not perfect, but i think i kinda got it, i just dont feel like thats my vibe and im sad 💔

I have been outting this off, off, off!!!😫

I am a little mad at myself because I am looking forward to finishing my granny square blanket. But I need to stop for a little because I am feeling it in my head. 😢

How much fabric did it use up?

My super short pixie is growing out and I'm so excited to try this cause I'm in such an awkward phase. What setting stuff did you use?

I am finding it difficult to translate my experience knitting short rows on socks to pants.

looks amazing! I wish I had de patience to learn how to sew

I would love to make a regency outfit mostly because I love Jane Austen but also because you are right the construction seems much more forgiving both in construction and fitting

Not me, but I once saw a young lady knitting at a local tax help event! It was quite smart as there was a lot of sitting and waiting. Knitting on a hike certainly sounds like a very unique experience. ☺️

It looks fantastic. :D

Do you sell?

That is so cute! ❤ I'm so tempted to try knitting, but I should probably focus on mastering crochet first

Is that the botanical yoke sweater from Purl Soho that you're wearing at the beginning? Love it. I made a short-sleeve top-down version, which was a bit of an adventure since it was written bottom-up. Edit: lol, you answered my question two minutes or so in.

Looks beautiful on you ❤

Do you think i can make it with yarn size 6 instead of 8? I dont really like that chunky size but I'm afraid it wont look as good...

Oooh this is beautiful! What yarns are you using??

What approximative size was this supposed to be?

Wow it definitely doesn’t take me 6 hours to get numbness or pain lol more like an hour or even less if it’s a certain knitting or crochet with smaller sized needles/hooks
