Oh Lisa,Lisa,Lisa - you do inspire me so much with all your lovely knitting, future patterns, yarn shop and now beautiful spinning! You do such a great podcast and when I am interested to make something that I know you have made I always go back through your podcasts and get all your tips and advice on your experiences during the making and yarn used etc - thankyou 🌸
Hi Lisa, I love your Alpine Bloom Sweater, it is stunning. Great to see an alternative to higher end yarn that looks so great. Your spinning is looking very good. Practice makes perfect. I would love to see you spinning. Take care
Thank you Lisa for all the inspiration, interesting little side bits and for your colour knowledge. Your podcasts are always very useful and full of good things. Loved the video at the end, made me feel cold but it was pretty. Thanks again, take care.
Your Alpine Bloom is gorgeous. Well done. We don’t mind your ‘spinning’ chat. Andrea talks about it, truly myrtle has her wheel out as well. Getting very popular. I just can’t get all the knitting done - especially when you show such beautiful patterns and gorgeous yarn. Even though I am retired where does the time go. Love your chats.
Lisa ,thank you so much for another lovely podcast!Besides your inspiring knitting and spinning ,your tips for choosing yarns and projects are super helpful to this avid Canadian knitter!
Love the yarn substitution for the Alpine Bloom jersey. Now that you are a very good spinner you will be able to make your own spin cycle type yarn. Exciting times ahead 😀👏🤩👏😀
Love hearing all your cast ons and yarn ideas. Love your alpine bloom. Looks so stunning !!! I’ve knit the helix cardigan and made the round neck version. I’ve also just bought the weekender crew - never like the original boat neck. And another designer who I’ve a few designs of is Isabelle Kramer. Gorgeous simple designs !!
Hi Lisa. You've given me the nudge I needed to get my spinning wheel out. I bought it during lockdown and am scared of it. Had a lesson but I was rubbish at it. Think I might sit quietly by myself and try again.
Yes you should. practice makes perfect is what i tell myself, my spinning definitely needs more practice. I find it so relaxing and rewarding, now all i need is more time.
Love your podcasts Lisa. Your Alpine Bloom is superb. The e spinner is lovely and can see how portable and convenient it is. Your samples are gorgeous. What a fabulous place you went to for a little break. The falling snow was lovely. Thankyou for the advice on the chiagoo products, through you I am getting a nice supply now and great storage. Do you categorise your favourites in your ravelry a/c. Can you show us how to do that if you do so.Always look forward to the next video.
Hi Shirley, thank you for supporting my podcast and online store. I really do not use Ravelry to its full potential and to be honest i need to learn more about it myself. I don't categorise anything, I have so many patterns in my favorites that it is ridiculous. I need to make more time to learn about the programme. Im sure there would be TH-cam tutorials i should watch.
Thank you for another informative podcast. Canada can be very hot at the end of May! I just finished the Alpine Bloom as well. I have ditched the kitchener stitch as soon as I discovered the Finchley graft. I game changer 😊
I hear you about the spin cycle! I had to go into the second skein for 2 rows! 2 rows! At $45 Canadian a skein - not cool lol. Yours is beautiful and I would not have known any different! The Alpine Bloom is a beautiful knit. Can’t wait to see it finished.
I’m just learning to spin too, made cowls, cushions, used in crochet blanket etc. one day hopefully I’ll make a garment. Like to use some for colourwork But for now into summer knits 😊
your substitution on the Alpine Bloom is beautiful - and may I say this yarn snobbery has to stop - who the heck is Spin Cycle anyway what are they using spun gold?or yarn - it's just piffle.
I had a completely different take on the comment. Spin Cycle is a couple of American women who started out hand spinning local wool, so it’s a closed loop business. I thought that person was complimentary, that the wool was so lovely and well spun that it was comparable to machine spun yarn and the colours were so lovely it looked exotic. I feel the same as you though about locally bought hand spun, hand dyed wool. It is much better to support our local wool producers and dyers if we can and when we choose to, then buy from other countries who have similar sustainable practices.
I agree that spin cycle is very unique and i really enjoyed using it for my Calypso sweater and I will use it again in the future. In saying that the local hand dyed and hand spun is also very unique and special, and it is so good to support these local talented people. thank you for sharing
Thank you, I think it is really good to show substitutions as we all have different budgets. Thera are a lot of beautiful patterns that feature spin cycle so it's good to get that message out there so knitters are not put off and they know they can yarn substitute for great results.
@@UnwindandKnitwithMe Yes, I completely agree. ⭐️ The diversity of beautiful yarns is so wonderful. We have so much to choose from. I do love your colour sense, the selections are always gorgeous.
What a beautiful place this is. It seems odd that snow is on the palms. Was this a rental . We are coming to Christchurch in Jan. Our kiwi family are taking us to South Island. We will be flying from Palmerston North
Thank you for another most enjoyable podcast, especially all your pattern finds and ideas for accompanying wool. Your colour work on the alpine bloom is stunning!! Lisa, did you see - th-cam.com/video/BTZZkFLBQuI/w-d-xo.html - it is an interview done with Elizabeth from Amikihia Knits earlier today. Thought you maybe interested. And don't under-estimate the recycled yarn from Wild Earth Yarns - I knitted the Tii Pullover by Joji Locatelli in it and as far as value for money goes, you can't beat it. Have a great week,

thank you, although i think i'm a long way off creating something that special. Im busy practising and loving it.

Sounds like we have similar taste. I have done a couple of Isabel Kramer also and have many more in my favorites.
Love hearing about your spinning journey, I am the same, knitting and doing some spinning [with purpose] as well.
I'm going to knit my first couple of spins that are not that great into beanies. I hope to have one done for my next podcast.

Thank you for another informative podcast. Canada can be very hot at the end of May! I just finished the Alpine Bloom as well. I have ditched the kitchener stitch as soon as I discovered the Finchley graft. I game changer 😊
Thank you, i will definitely check out Finchley graft.
Depending when you are coming to Canada especially Southern Ontario, we have very hot and humid weather. High80,90s so you will not need your socks
I will be there is May so your right I may not need them.
Live dangerously Lisa. You said you want to get away from blues a bit. Knit the helix cardigan in another summery colour😊
Im tempted, I really do need to live more dangerously.
I hear you about the spin cycle! I had to go into the second skein for 2 rows! 2 rows! At $45 Canadian a skein - not cool lol. Yours is beautiful and I would not have known any different! The Alpine Bloom is a beautiful knit. Can’t wait to see it finished.
I'm really enjoying it and hope to have it finished for next week's episode.
I love that you suggest several yarn alternatives!
thank you, there are so many beautiful yarns we are spoilt for choice.
Loved this episode. The look and sound of your snowy retreat was idyllic 👌🏻
Thank you, it was really magical.
Loved hearing about your spinning, I started spinning a year ago, I'm tempted to get an espinner now I've seen yours 😊
You should! they are amazing.
Loving these vlogcasts Lisa, really appreciate your time and effort putting them out Giving me a large queue of wishknits 😊
I'm so glad you enjoy them and thank you for supporting my podcast.
I’m just learning to spin too, made cowls, cushions, used in crochet blanket etc. one day hopefully I’ll make a garment. Like to use some for colourwork But for now into summer knits 😊
I'm really enjoying the spinning and hope to do more to improve. Enjoy your summer knitting, I have a few on my list for this summer also.
Love all your yarns and projects. The Alpine Bloom is gorgeous!
Thank you so much!

It was a rental, but very small one bedroom, not suitable for a family. Christchurch is such a lovely city to visit im sure you will love it.
Thank you for another most enjoyable podcast, especially all your pattern finds and ideas for accompanying wool.
Your colour work on the alpine bloom is stunning!!
Lisa, did you see - th-cam.com/video/BTZZkFLBQuI/w-d-xo.html - it is an interview done with Elizabeth from Amikihia Knits earlier today. Thought you maybe interested.
And don't under-estimate the recycled yarn from Wild Earth Yarns - I knitted the Tii Pullover by Joji Locatelli in it and as far as value for money goes, you can't beat it.
Have a great week,
Thank you i will go a watch that now. I hope to have Elizabeth as a guest on my show in the near future.
