    Thank you for another lovely visit; it really feels like you are having a chat with us. Your vest was stunning; may have to put that in the knitting queue. It sounds like you are settling in at your new home and city, and good luck with your new job. I’m a looking forward to seeing your makes next time. Cheers, Dee

    I love that you take the time and explain your thought process in your projects. It is encouraging me to be more methodical. I am actually knitting a guage swatch this time! Ha! Ha! Beautiful knits as always.

    The Iza cardigan fits really nicely! I recommend that, if you opt to sew a button band down the side with buttons that you do the same on the side with the holes (though it will require that you machine sew the button holes or do hand bound ones). I've done it on the button side only and the other side, over the course of time, stretched length-wise more than the other side. It's not a disaster but it's not optimal and I wouldn't do it again. You could always put snaps on the non-public sides of the fabric bands if you don't want to sew buttonholes in the ribbon. It'll still look like the buttons are doing the job but the snaps will mitigate the need for the buttonholes.

    Hello again !! You totally inspired me!! I am doing the blizzard sweater! I wanted the dark grey, but the store I ordered from was out of it in the rustic yarn I wanted , so I ordered light grey fingering which I will have to hold double and a have a reddish rust knitting for olive for the contrast!! I’m going to cast on as soon as the yarn comes so as to have an easy enjoyable tv knitting project as I am finishing all the old works in progress!! Looking forward to your next project. I went to school in Buffalo in the 70’s 🤣, I currently live in the beautiful Hudson Valley, and also have two previous cats😺😺🧶!!

    So happy to see this episode. I never thought much about knitting a vest, but I love that green vest with the cables. I’m kind of a beginner, but have been wanting to try cables in a garment and I think the vest would be a perfect choice. Also, really fell in love with the Elizabeth Smith top. The us definitely going on my TBK (to be knit) list. Currently I’m working on my blanket project for your knit along and the Breezy V by Yumiko Alexander. Thanks so much for sharing. Stay safe.

    A few days late, but loved catching up with you 💕 I've had summer garments on my mind, it's nice to see what you are making on that front! That cable vest is so scrumptious 😍
    My knitting mojo has been low lately, I started a new job three weeks ago and I think it soaked up all my active brain power! I'm craving something soft and simple to do quietly in the evenings 🧶

    Hi there!! I’m so glad I found your podcast!! I got your name from Ruth loves to knit!! Your voice is so soothing , the knitting is just beautiful!! I also start a million things and don’t finish anything, at least right away!! I have four complicated garments that will get finished, but I have decided to only knit cardigans with small amount of color work or lace on the yoke, and then plain stockinette. I am finishing a cable funnel neck , an old pattern of Marie Wallin, and I’m never doing a cable again! I have sweaters that easily take more than a year!! Anyway, your work is very beautiful , I’ve had you on all afternoon !! Best regards, and thank you so much! Nancy

    I loved this so much! I'm going Mohave to go back to your older videos and watch! I'm new to garment knitting and love it but I've been trying to figure out what to knit this summer and it never crossed my mind to do super wash fingering weight project which will feel cottony and soft on my hands without being too hard because it's so thin. Perfect idea. I also love that you make so many cardigans. I'm a little afraid to do drop shoulders and panels so it's cool to see someone else make them. I'm a plus sized woman and have also been afraid to invest my time into cables and vests thinking it wouldn't be flattering on me. But seeing yours I don't even care. I need it. lol You totally sold me on your green vest. The color, the shaping, the cables, everything is just perfect. And yours looks so good on you!! I'm not sure what size yours is but I am going to have to go take a look asap. I'm just imagining it with some jean shorts or a white tee shirt underneath or a fall jacket. Can't wait for your next video and new inspiration!

      Thank you so much for the lovely message!! I completely understand what you mean by being plus size and afraid of cables making us look bulky! I used to feel the same but this vest is pleasantly flattering!! I made the 50” size which is size 5 I think! I highly recommend the pattern 😁 Thank you so much for watching the podcast 😊😊

      @@skeinsofdreamsknits that is exactly what size I would want to make!! Now I know what looks good on you might look good on me!! 🙌🏼 ❤️ I noticed that you said you did some shaping for the waist which I love. Are there any resources you recommend for that for a beginner like me? Or should I just stick to the pattern?

    • @skeinsofdreamsknits
      @skeinsofdreamsknits  2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love your ramblings and creativity. I hate to ask, but is there any way it could be louder? For example, I have no trouble with Andrea Mowry's volume, but if I watch skeins of dreams I have to make sure there is absolutely no noise in the background (fans, air conditioner, etc.) which is difficult (and hot) in the summer now. I can listen in the car where I can turn up the volume and not so much noise, but otherwise I am going to miss all summer (with air conditioning). Sorry to bring this up. Everything you make is gorgeous.
