    Thank you for a great show, Joyin. No reason to be nervous that I can see - you’re a natural! Thanks also for sharing your own mental health issues and diagnosis and for being willing to open a discussion. My dearest wish is that the more people open up and talk about mental health issues, the more it becomes a medical issue to be treated rather than something to be ashamed of.

    This is the first of your videos that I have watched and you are amazing. 2 years of knitting and able to complete a sweater in 10 days is simply awesome.
    Embracing knitting so wholeheartedly is definitely great therapy. Thank you for sharing your diagnosis of bipolar. I had a good friend in school who struggled with it and would be off and on the medication which was not good. Having a good therapist alongside your knitting is just the thing that will help you manage this.
    Thank you for sharing and I look forward to more of your content. ❤

    Glad I found your channel and so enjoyed this video. I can not believe how fast you knit and would love to see a video of you knitting. Your knits are so gorgeous and I am in awe of your beautiful knits - so many luscious textures. I hope you release the cardigan video soon - looking forward to see your compilation.

    I’m so glad TH-cam recommended you. Your work is beautiful. Thanks for sharing the bipolar diagnosis. Mental health is like physical health and we need both treated the same. ESP culturally. I’m African too and I know therapy isn’t a thing with our people. All the best. I had a lot of anxiety with having teens then over covid that went into overdrive. I picked up knitting then as a way to relax amongst other things and it was the best thing ever.

    • @toksknits

      It’s amazing how much knitting helps our mental health. I feel like I want to persuade everyone to learn how to knit. Thanks so much for watching!

    The Agnete cardigan - go for it! It's a beautiful and interesting knit. I just completed mine also in green. I used Woolyknit sage green and also drops dark green mohair. Since you knit so fast, I can see you completing yours in a couple weeks. :) Thanks so much for being open to share about your mental health struggles and your road to recovery. So many of us struggle in silence and I'm glad the world is changing where it is now okay to discuss this topic. Your knits are so inspiring and I could not help but follow you on IG.

    I’m glad to find your channel. I’ve been looking for more podcasters of color. Can’t wait to see more from you. I have 2 cable patterns in my library that I want to try, the Dornie and the Eclair Raglan.
    Also your hair is gorgeous! ❤

    Thank you for sharing your mental health struggles. I am so very happy for you that you are better with meds and therapy. So many of us suffer with mental health issues and many suffer in silence. My heart goes out to your. Knitting and creativity are a great help with mental health issues, I'm glad that knitting is therapeutic for you. I have read how knitting is therapeutic.
