I love the finished t-shirt, the stripes look really fun. It’s hard to imagine a warm kind of yarn with a summer style pattern. Your cats are very entertaining.
No weirdness at all. I love the construction of your new striped tee and what you did to modify it. I actually like the way it fits better than either a raglan or yolked tee. Looks so comfortable to wear. You are a smart knitter.
I love your multicolor Everyday Attitude Tee! The shoulder chevrons are a nice detail. 🙌 for getting back to the cardigan. Looking forward to seeing your progress.
Sat here enjoying the podcast while knitting with CamijoKnit yarn (swoon) on a CamijoKnit pattern and then you mentioned her delightful podcast. Camilla is such a talented designer and dyer! Speaking of talented designers: your yet-to-be-named infinity cowl is GORGEOUS! Thanks for an inspiring episode Michelle 😊
The red, gree, and light pink, white would make a lovely Christmas shawl! If you have enough maybe something like the Lunae would be great in those red, gree, and white.
Way to go working on the cardigan! I had a similar problem with a sweater I started in February. Once I got through the yoke I got sick of working on it and didn't touch it for months and finally I started working on it a little bit at a time before bed and now I'm almost done with the second sleeve. You'll get there even though it may not feel like it right now and just think of the relief you'll feel when you're finally done!
Love your podcasts. Your Everyday Attitude Tee looks amazing. I wouldn’t worry about the armholes. They don’t really look too big. You wet it some and toss in the dryer a short time and may make it seem better fitted for you. Your new cowl pattern is gorgeous. I made a scarf this past spring made the same way. Fingering weight and colorwork but all different patterns. It was knit in the round and I hated working on it at first but it didn’t take long and I was obsessed with working on it and finishing. It turned out so soft and blocked incredibly and I absolutely love it. Yours will tempt me. Congrats on finishing the viking socks. They look amazing and it would feel so good to have them finished. Also, I love your desire to get back to your husbands sweater. You will be so happy once you get a little ways along on it. Then it will fly. Great plan to do a bit a day or thereabouts. It will make such a difference.
Thank you so much! I've thought about tossing it in the dryer if it starts to stretch over time (just based on the fabric). I've yet to do that with a knitting garment, but this might be a good one to try if need be. I appreciate all the kind words. 🥰
thanks for another great podcast! Love to see that you are working on those lingering WIPs and even finished one. Maybe I need to make a video about mine too, to get me started with them again.
Thanks so much! Once I tucked it into jeans I felt a lot better about it. Sometimes it just takes a bit for me to figure out HOW to wear something before I like it!
The Everyday Attitude Tee looks wonderful on you. It doesn’t look too big and the arm/sleeves look just fine when your body is at rest or with your arms raised. It only looks a bit big when you grab at it 😊. So just don’t do that 😂. I really had some doubts about all the multi colored stripes but it turned out great!
Your Ever yday Attitude Tee looks great, the sleeve depth looks perfect on you. Excited for the cowl pattern - I live in FL so it will have to be a gift but excited to try it. And I can't wait to see your sweater that made it back into the active wip pile! Not sure whether you watch Tash's podcast called Mostly Knitting (it's a great one) but she called you out today, talking about your flock socks. 😊
Thank you! So excited to hear you want to try the cowl too. I love Tash's podcast but haven't watched her most recent episode, so that's awesome to hear! Going to watch it today 🥰
Also, you might consider trying Portuguese stlye for the purling to help it not feel so much like a slog. It is my knitting preference but it definitely goes faster than traditional purling!
I like the way your top sits on you, including the armholes! As for the yarn with silk, I would look for drapey tops! Maybe the newest Caitlin hunter? There is a sweater called Margit sweater by Sara Stark (on Ravelry) what I’ve been eyeing. The yarn she uses is wool, silk and flax, but maybe that works all the same?
I like the multi color for your Everyday Attitude Tee better than just the two colors. I love how you did your colors.
Thanks so much! I'm really happy with it now.
This made my day. Thanks so much for the sweet comments. 💚💚💚
Of course!! I love your podcast 🥰
I love the finished t-shirt, the stripes look really fun. It’s hard to imagine a warm kind of yarn with a summer style pattern. Your cats are very entertaining.
Thanks so much! I kind of love having some options like that with short sleeves so I can keep my core warm without overheating.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Knockin’ it out!
Good motivation for those of us who have a little languish in our bags.
I love both of your cowls.
Thank you so much! I'm glad I can help motivate you 😊

Thank you!! Once I styled it I fell in love with it, just needed to tuck it into some jeans.
I love your multicolor Everyday Attitude Tee! The shoulder chevrons are a nice detail.

Thanks so much!!

How perfect is that!? I really want to try her yarn soon, she's just such a delight to watch. Thank you so much!! 🥰
The Everyday Attitude Tee looks fantastic on you.
Thanks so much!!
Hi Michele, loving your podcast a lot. Thank you for another episode!
Thank you so much!

I LOVE that shawl. Unfortunately I don't have enough in this yarn, but it's a shawl I've had my eye on making for awhile.

That's good to know! It feels like such small progress, but it adds up over time. And slow progress is better than NO progress!
Hi Michele, maybe you could make a shawl from the leftovers of the Everyday Tee. Looking forward to seeing your cats 😻😻😻
That's a great idea! It doesn't seem like much but this yarn goes pretty far, so that might work!
The everyday tee came out so good! I love the stripes!
Thank you!! I'm really happy with it now :)
Love the cowl! It looks like “On Flora and Vine” to me as a name!
Oh that's a great name!
I think the sweater is *very* flattering on you! I love it.
Oh thank you!
Your top looks gorgeous!!!❤❤❤
Thank you!! 🥰

Your Viking socks look so cool! 🧦
Aren't they so fun!?
I think that the pattern and the colors too would make a lovely sweater or cardigan with drop shoulders. Like the porcelain sweater kind of sweater.
I agree, this motif would look great on a drop shoulder construction!
thanks for another great podcast! Love to see that you are working on those lingering WIPs and even finished one. Maybe I need to make a video about mine too, to get me started with them again.
I highly recommend it! There's something about airing your dirty laundry that really sparks motivation 🤣
happy I just found your podcasts! love you designs!!
Yay! Thank you!
Really nice podcast thanks!!
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the watthe tee looks on you! I get it that you have to be comfortable in it, but i love it!

🤣 very fair, I think I was a bit too grabby. I feel a lot better about it tucked into my jeans; I think I just needed to style it!

You could knit some xmas decorations with the leftover yarn, the colours are kind of perfect :)
You're right, these are perfect Christmas colors! What a great idea!
Also, you might consider trying Portuguese stlye for the purling to help it not feel so much like a slog. It is my knitting preference but it definitely goes faster than traditional purling!
Thanks for the tip! I'm going to look this up and see if it would help.
Love the shirt and love the yarn! Maybe you could make a Drachenfels shawl, a pattern from Melanie Berg?
That's a fantastic idea!
I like the way your top sits on you, including the armholes!
As for the yarn with silk, I would look for drapey tops! Maybe the newest Caitlin hunter? There is a sweater called Margit sweater by Sara Stark (on Ravelry) what I’ve been eyeing. The yarn she uses is wool, silk and flax, but maybe that works all the same?
That would be beautiful! I don't have enough left to do another top, but something to think about for future stash buster projects.
Hey, I'm a new subscriber and have just watched your flock video. I already like your cat!
Welcome!! Thanks so much!
Your arms are down most of the time, to me it looks just like it should look. Love the stripes.
This is true! Normal day-to-day wear I think it works.
I am also a smaller bust and I feel like designers are not being size inclusive for smaller sizes lately. 🙁
It's tough with that sometimes! Especially with my pear-shaped frame, I often need to modify patterns a bit to best fit my shape.
