- another vlog style video! this time I knit a boatneck top using yarn I bought in the UK and a little bit of handspun :^)
I hope this video wasn't too chaotic, I didn't really talk a lot about what I was doing with the top as I was making it (in part because it was loosely based on a tutorial) but I tried to include as much info as possible in the captions. if you'd like to know more you can always message me on instagram!
I'm going to be hard at work spinning up yarn for my website launch later this summer so I hope you guys are keen for more spinning content. I'm also working on a pattern for the raglan I knit earlier this year so definitely follow me for updates if you'd like to get in on that!!

Turned out gorgeous! I was so drawn in by this video, I watched it all the way to the end
So glad you liked it! My husband is Danish and I moved to be with him :^) I love talking with other crafty people so if you'd ever like someone to chat knitting/crochet with I'd be super keen to talk or even meet!!
@@jinspun aww sweet! Yess definitely! Do you have an account on insta for your knitting/crochet? 🫶🏼
It would be fun if you showed the handmade items you're wearing. Just a bit 😊 I love seeing people wear what they make ❤
That's a really good idea! I just always forget to say anything haha
the top is so beautiful! I love the colours you used and the stripes the yarn created. Could I ask which type of fibres you used for the handspun yarn shown on 7:50, because it looks gorgeous
Thank you so much! And of course :^) I used merino, silk and alpaca in shades of pink, green and brown. Then I plied it with a white alpaca bouclé I had!
@@jinspun thank you!
