    Hi Emma! My mom uses a white bed sheet as a tree skirt, it looks like snow! Meanwhile, I have one from target that's a knit color-work tree skirt which looks like something I could knit. Both look great under a tree!

    Hi Emma I agree with your ethos. Not buying unecessarily is hard as we are faced with so many forms of advertising and I quite often get swept away buying stuff I don't need. Trying to be more intentional. Still working on my Eurus seems to be taking forever. Was that one of the knits you regret?

    • @granolagear

    Hi Emma! I don’t know what “norm core” is because I’m old. I would say you are”real” ❤ And that is why I love your podcasts so much. I am in Northern NY now where the wind is whipping and it is icy. I treated myself to a small latte and knitted on the final sleeve of my grey space sweater by Tif Nielan. I’m very excited about this sweater. I am using some Lion Brand and some Knit Picks and I think they were good and affordable choices. If you could see my home and where I am sitting right now by my Christmas tree I think you would feel right at home😊 If I don’t get the chance I want to say Merry Christmas. May you be truly blessed this season.

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It’s just a silly way of saying I like being normal, I don’t need things to be curated to some specific style haha. I may place a knit picks order this winter for some yarn, I haven’t tried much of it yet but they have some affordable bases, I hope you’re having some cozy knits by the Christmas tree :)

    Hi Emma. Hope that your holiday season is lovely in every way. Hang in there with the sleeves. Maybe you are due for a “palette cleanser” project…something quick and easy, you know? I am working on a scrappy blanket…just my scraps held together with a bare yarn, all garter stitch. Perfect for mindless knitting and warm on my lap. I always look forward to your videos. Thanks!!!!!

    The weekend hat is supposed to be double folded, you shouldn’t be able to see the cast on! that might explain why it still feels long even though you shortened it? I love love love your Eurus slipover, so inspired to make one for myself now ❤

    • @granolagear

      It’s folded up but I think I expected it to be a total of 3 layers on the brim, maybe I missed something, I don’t always pay enough attention reading! And I love my eurus slipover!! It’s so much fun to wear :)

    Your brioche is gorgeous! I am curious, when you thrift yarn or purchase a sweater and reuse the yarn, do you worry about pests? How do you prepare the yarn before you use it?

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear หลายเดือนก่อน

      I wash any sweaters I thrift for yarn, and don't buy anything with moth damage because it's not worth unravelling anyways. I don't usually see evidence of bugs in thrifted yarn but if I'm not sure I stick it in a ziploc an throw it in the freezer for a month!

    I like S, M, L for sizes. As a larger woman, I want to see the pattern on larger women. If I search for 'XL' as text in Projects on Ravelry, I'll see results for XL, XXL, XXXL. I don't know of another way to search finished projects by size. I don't think this method works for the smaller sizes since they use a single letter.

    So sorry you dont love your cardigan. I understand what you are saying about the cable on the top of the sleeve. Thanks for sharing, this is something I will consider when selecting a pattern or creating my own. I do disagree regarding the sizing. My size is M but its all over the board and it doesnt take into consideration the amount of ease I like. Having size numbers 1,2,3... makes so much more since (if finished measurements of all portions of the sweater are listed) because then I can get a clear picture of how the sweater will fit and I may be able to knit three different sizes depending on my yarn and desires.

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear หลายเดือนก่อน

      I totally get that, I was thinking about it more after filming the podcast and I have 2 reasons that I’m of that opinion though I know it’s uncommon. #1 I realized I was actually more frustrated with the sizing of the Eurus Slipover, its sized 1-5 with no recommended ease so I was frustrated having no reference point from which to choose. #2 is that I’m tall for my category of bust size and sometimes find myself right between sizes. Because of this I’ve kind of trained myself to avoid anything smaller than a size “small” just to be safe. We all have a system when it comes to picking sizes because we’re all a little different :)

    @emilyp3647 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks for sharing about your experience with the Gregoria cardigan! Looking at it on you, I think if I knit it I’d knit it at a slightly looser gauge (i.e. size up on the needles) but knit at my recommended size to get a little more give on the fit. I’d also probably just figure out my own sleeve decrease rate and length because I hate when my sleeves are too tight and short! It’s a shame because it’s a gorgeous pattern and the FO looks beautiful.

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear หลายเดือนก่อน

      Gauge is already honestly not as dense as I would like, if I cared to redo it I think I’d just totally rework the sleeves longer 🤷‍♀️

    I appreciate you sharing your concerns with the beatrix cardigan. Ughh the euros slipover is on my list to knit as well. 😍 I have the dagmar jacket on the go so i think i need to finish that before picking up another cabled pattern.

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ugh yes love the dagmar but I’m thinking I’ll knit the rather before I consider it. I totally recommend the Eurus it’s been a really fun knit for some reason!

    That FO is next in my queue… yarn bought… I’m processing.

    • @granolagear

      I think there are some really beautiful ones out there, and people who love their version so don’t let me entirely dissuade you! I just want to make sure I’m totally honest with my take because that’s kinda the whole point of this community imo. If you know ahead of time what you might face it’s easier to make edits in your own version:)

      @ I was already worried about the front not closing properly from another video. Honestly I’ve only been knitting for a year, I may choose another more at my level…maybe not. Processing… haha

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear หลายเดือนก่อน

      There are definitely other more traditional options you could use that gauge & quantity of yarn for. I also think there’s no reason not to add more buttons to close it up more too

    Which size did you make :)

      The size small but my gauge was a little large :)

    May I suggest that you get a good thimble? It would save your fingers and make pushing the needle through thick material much easier.🥰

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I was thinking just that as I was struggling to push it through on the first pair of pants😂 the problem was largely resolved when I sewed off camera because I had more control holding it closer to my body

    I figured out why I get meh vibes from Beatrix - I find it busy for my personal taste and the fit is odd (I like really long sleeves and oversized fits). But other knitters can probably make it look so good

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I just finished it and honestly it’s my least favorite sweater I’ve knit. I like the idea of it but I don’t think the fabric it creates was what I expected, it looks much more dense in photos than it is in person. I also don’t find that it fits well, the sleeves overall are very odd and the buttons down the front just aren’t not functional enough.

    So many patterns there's not just enough hours in the day 😅. I finally found some thrifted wool it's aran weight. Do you have any suggestions for a vest or cardigan in that weight wool x

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I believe the chunky version of the Lulu slipover is Aran weight, that’s a great one!

    • @bridgethope5375
      @bridgethope5375 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're right 😊. I also found the Eurus slipover which you mentioned in your winter makes video. Think I will make one or the other. Thanks for your help!

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The eurus is an undertaking but it’s been fun so far!

    Beatrix is next in my queue. Did you use the recommended yarn? I was listening to your podcast while I was driving so I might’ve missed it.

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I did not, I used yarn unravelled from a thrifted sweater that was predominantly wool. I hit gauge with it and the fabric isn’t too loose but I found the fabric to still be pretty holey, a mohair might remedy that slightly though

    Fun topic, Emma! I’ve got quite a few good thrift finds in my drawer as well. I think my favorite one is a wool angora blend cardigan with a shawl collar. It lives at our second home in Northern New York where it is absolutely my comfort on a winter morning with my tea. I have a lot more but I am too comfortable in my chair to count or look at tags. But trust me, you’ve got me beat.😊

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes I've always had a bit of a sweater collecting problem! It comes from living in a colder climate for most of my life I guess, always need to prepare to layer and still put together a fun outfit every day!

    I'm knitting my husband the twila pullover by Christina Korber-Reith. It's aran weight, a sweatshirt style. He won't wear cardigans.🙄

    • @granolagear

      If that’s a really nice one!! My husband is also not a cardigan man haha, limits the options for sure

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ugh yes I may consider knitting one for myself in a more reasonable size, then my husband and I can match!

    I have a stack of commercially made mohair/alpaca etc “fancier” yarn sweaters that I’ve had for years and I loooove them to bits 🙌🏻 also wear them to bits so the extra nylon/polyamide content is giving them longevity. My absolute favorite black raglan ribbed turtleneck is H&M 😅

    • @granolagear
      @granolagear 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes sometimes it’s nice to wear an ole reliable sweater you’re not as worried about damaging!
