Hello and welcome to the Cat Crafty Knits TH-cam channel! I am Cat, an independent knitwear designer living in Devon, UK, building a small business around my family and love for crafts. I love creating beautiful and versatile knitting patterns for all the family. Here you will find knitting 'how-to' tutorials to help with many of the techniques found in my knitting patterns (and of course, other patterns, too!). Also home to the Cat Crafty Knits Podcast, where I like to chat about my crafty antics, mainly knitting, but also sewing and maybe a little crochet from time to time. Let me talk to you about my ideas, my design process and random thought processes!
Cat Crafty Knits Podcast Episode 9: Yarn Overwhelm!
Hello, my name is Cat and I haven't bought yarn for 169 days....
Welcome to Episode 9 of the Cat Crafty Knits Podcast! It's another long one today... I don't share any works in progress OR have any finished objects, what sort of knitting podcaster am I??!! Instead I natter on for an hour about some of the yarn in my stash and share the stories behind it. I don't share everything, but quite a lot of it!
I am going to keep these notes short as there would be a lot to cover if I were to write down everything that I spoke about in the video. I think I have most things covered on-screen but if there's anything more you would like to know then please do ask in the comments!
Wishing you lots of love and knittyness! Thank you for being here and watching me again.
Knit and be happy,
Cat x

Hello and welcome to Episode 4 of the Cat Crafty Knits Podcast! This time I come to you from my bedroom floor, right by the window! The weather in England right now is pretty darn shocking and this was the best lit place I could find to record!

Hello and welcome to Episode 3 of the Cat Crafty Knits Podcast! Third episode filmed on camera no. 3! Focus issues are better but the glare at times is a bit annoying!

Hello and welcome to Episode 2 of the Cat Crafty Knits Podcast! This Episode is a little shorter and hopefully more palatable than the first!

And to you too!! 😊💖
@@catcraftyknits Thank you!🥰
Stash dive please!😍
Hahah I'll maybe see what I can do then in the future then!
Absolutely love this. When do you think it will be available? Any idea of your price. So clever.
Oh I am so pleased you like it! I was hoping to have already launched with an 'in stock' set of files/inserts but unfortunately I didn't quite get it done before the summer holidays, now with two young kids around my sewing time has disappeared! I hope to be back on track and be ready by early/middle of September. Not sure about price yet, because it will be fairly 'mix and match' I need to work out how to charge for the individual parts and then a full file 'set'! I am also hoping that with practice they will become less time intensive to make but also want to price accordingly for my time. Sorry both of those answers are so woolly!!
This is such well thought through product idea, I think there will definetely buyers for that.👍
Thanks Caitlyn!! I really hope so!
I love the look of the new lace panel!😍
It's working out really nicely!
Lovely video. Looking forward to seeing your products and seeing how the journey develops x
Thanks so much! So pleased you liked the video! It's taken a little while but I'll soon be ready to share another one!
Felicidades por tu. Eguerso
Hi Cat! I hope you're feeling better. ❤ I'm curious if using ribbing around the arch/foot section of your husband's socks would be tighter, too tight, or if the slip knit version you knit, is more comfortable? 🤔 I'm planning a pair, using the modified heel from your Speckled Pop Sock pattern, for my husband. 🙂
You could work it with ribbing instead, I think the overall effect would probably be the same, maybe a little more stretch with ribbing than you get with slip stitches? I don't know if there would be much difference in how comfortable it would be to be honest! Would be worth experimenting! Scott likes a ribbed sock as he likes them to be snug, in this instance though, I went for slip stitches to achieve a similar outcome simply because I like the look!
I love it so much
Thanks so much!!
🏳️🌈 idea for your tatoo...rather than editing the tattoo every time just use a stock photo of the edited leg and simply do a neat cut and paste of the sock you want to shoe off❤
That's a great idea! I may try that next time, thanks!
Wow I love it where did you get it😮
Thank you! I made it 😃
A video is worth a thousand words!
