Amber of A Lovely Yarn in the US recommended your video. So glad she did. I love knitting videos from other countries. Your shop is lovely. Would love to visit it.
another great episode. I am also using this month to make all the socks I can, it has been a great motivator. I love the look of the White Rainbow, it looks like the most beautiful water colour version. My granddaughters favourite colours are pink and 'rainbow' she would live in a garment made in that yarn. How luxurious would those fingerless gloves be too.
Another great episode! Such a nice chatty yet informative style. Glad you solved my confusion about plys and about possum yarn. Your version of the night shift shawl is amazing and I liked your use of artistic discretion...it sounds really fun.
We use 'ply' as well in Australia. Eons ago, plys used to be commercially standardised, so a 4ply had in fact 4 strands, 8ply used to have 8 strands. I'm in my 60's now, as a child, to find what ply a wool was, unravel the end a little bit & count the strands. It's all different now. Thank you for another enjoyable episode
Im looking forward to your sock pattern. When I have a new sock pattern I pick one size and do it to the letter. Then I make adjustments to fit me. I have never had a pattern that I could just follow and it fitted perfectly. My tension changes and not just over the years. I have a pair of socks that I did everything the same, yet one is larger than the other one and I do the socks one after the other
Love your podcast-would love to visit, also try the cashmere-possum-silk yarn. The cloudburst mitt sounds dreamy. Also the dark & light rainbow yarn-love!
Thank you so much for explaining your plies compared to our fingering DK. What did you say your sport weight would be in New Zealand. I love all your socks. You did a great job. Very nice. They fit you perfectly. I like your cardigan. I like everything you made I love watching your podcast thank you.
How do you find the fit of the short row heels. I have tried them but they are always an uncomfortable tight fit. You obviously have solved this problem
Wow! So many socks!!! Love your Q&A section, always something new to learn, that’s what makes me love knitting and this community!
Love your show, you do a great job explaining your projects. I enjoy seeing your choice of yarns, they are all so beautiful.
Thank you so much! Loving your channel !

Yes. Wow on the lighter rainbow skeins. Such talent from all the dyers out there.
That hat in that yarn is gorgeous! Love the dark rainbow colour.
Just a wonderful podcast Alana, so enjoyable. Love your projects especially those mitts, looking forward to the next one ❤

thanks for putting my thoughts down so we'll, it was the same in NZ.
I love the whitened rainbow yarn! ❤
Thank you. Lovely episode
Omg I love that red sock yarn you used. Also we mostly used ply when referring to wool in Australia but I’m getting used to both

I love you channel. Liked the part on yarn weights today. Most of Europe uses the ply terminology as welk. I think I prefer the North American terms
She could make a ki5 with both of the rainbow skeins called Rainbows on the Dark. 😂 it is really nice.

Always very interesting! You knit and wear a lot of sweaters, which is great. Does it get cold there? Do you get snow ❄️?
