    Excellent thoughtful episode. I am trying to keep a knitting journal but sometimes it looks like random thoughts and numbers. I am more likely to post in Ravelry if I do the recording of my process if I write it down first. That might be a helpful topic.

      Thank you very much! I keep a knitting journal, but definitely see how recording my knitting in Ravelry would be beneficial and potentially superior to my written journal (e.g., access when I'm out of my home, other knitters can benefit from reading my recordings, data is kept in one place).

I am jazzed to start new projects and naturally want to dive right in, which is totally great with some cast-ons, but find with others, putting in the time upfront can really increase the joy in my knitting experience. I find it interesting and helpful to allow myself to pause and reflect before jumping in, of course whilst knitting on a WIP to keep my hands busy!

    Skill level can vary so much, for example I consider myself an advance lace knitter, but a fairly beginner brioche knitter. I also would say I am an advance cable knitter but a fairly new double knitting or colorwork knitter. I get so bored knitting miles of stockinette, but I often appreciated the classic look of simple designs. Sharing with friends about patterns they knitted and the experience they had is also useful.

    • @pairswellwithknitting
      @pairswellwithknitting 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I think the gold yarn would be "perfect" in your Soldotna sweater. Although it is the same color family as the brown yarn, it is light enough that, in my opinion, it would just pop. I also think the richness of the gold would enhance the other colours. Will be looking forward to seeing what you choose!

    Hello...I've recently found your podcast and am enjoying it! One suggestion on the decreases for your hat. Maybe try double decreases. The only reason I thought of it is because I am doing double decreases on a heavily ribbed sweater I am knitting for my adult son. The decreases are stunning! And they flow as you described. (Brooklyn Tweed Pattern "Grist")

      This is wonderful suggestion! I have pulled out my decreases that I showed in the episode and started over again with a 4-point decrease with k2tog and ssk that flank one of the knit columns and still not the look I'm after. I will try the double decreases today. Thank you!!!❤️

    I wonder how it is to rip this very fragile unspun yarn, how did you manage it ? I am so touched you got this yarn and chocolate from Marielle in Norway. What a great community we have !!! I like the cream yarn the best for a contrast in your Soldotna.

      The knitting community is the warmest! Ripping out unspun yarn can be tricky. I slowly pull from the closest point possible near the stitch and do a tugging motion. Sometimes there's breakage. Sometimes there's quite a bit of breakage, especially with the Forgarn I've been knitting with. It's not perfect and can be a humbling experience. Thank you for your vote on the cream yarn!

      Good morning, Taylor! I'm so happy you're here. I have so many things on the needles right now and of course, being fall, I am so inspired to be making. Happy autumnal knitting!

    Soldotna! This put together with the Holst yarn will be fabulous. My Soldtona needs to get some love and now I see yours ( and to knit again….). Just need to wear. You do inspire me. So enjoyed today.

      You're too kind! Thank you. Yes! Wear your Soldotna. It's a beautiful design and one that when I find myself wearing it, makes me happy and feel proud that I've knit it!

    Hi Jennifer. I was pleased that your channel showed up in my feed yesterday and I have squeezed in watching several of your episodes since. I enjoy your substantive, detailed and light delivery. Thanks for another good knitting distraction.

      I'm thrilled that you're here! Thank you. I love sharing about my knits and aim to do so in a clear way that other knitters can find helpful, all while experiencing joy along the way!

    I’m a 99% sweater knitter, so your podcast are most enjoyable Jennifer! The other 1% are socks and mitts 🤭

    • @pairswellwithknitting
      @pairswellwithknitting 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

      We are twin knitters! Sweaters have my heart. I wish a had a second set of hands to knit socks and mitts along side my sweaters, but sweaters are the star of my knit time.

    the mustard/gold color works if you are going with a "moody" scheme

      Thank you! I do love a moody, autumn colour theme. Your vote is noted!
