    The question about the unfinished crochet project reminded me of an organization that completes yarn projects that have been left unfinished by a loved one that passed away. It’s called Loose Ends Project. You can sign up to be a Finisher. It’s a wonderful service!

    Ravelry has a yarn store finder and trip planner. You put in your starting point and destination and it will show you shops along the route.

    He may not like driving or van life, but Toaster is in his element in this video. Lying on the bed while listening to his Natalie talk is so familiar it must be his comfort zone.

    Hey Natalie! I was able to meet the Leading Men when they came to stitches west in Sacramento! Such great guys and lovely yarn! Toaster might like a Thunder jacket, works like a weighted blanket for anxiety. One of my Schnauzer’s wears it when we get a thunder storm, also takes a ThunderWunders Hemp Seed calming Chews for dogs. They work wonders and don’t make him drowsy.

    Natalie, have you ever used Ravelry’s Road Trip planner to look up yarn shops? You click Menu > Yarns and the third section down is the Road Trip Planner. You can specify your starting location, your destination, and a number of miles that you are willing to detour for the yarn shop. I’m sure it wouldn’t find the newest shops, but it might be a great and easy starting point for you! I’ve used it a number of times to find yarn shops on vacation and long road trips. It’s a cool feature!
    Love your podcast and seeing your most recent adventures. Happy travels to you!

    2 skeins on the body, alternating to obtain a double stretch of each colour might equate to knitting each sleeve with 1 skein. It will depend on the # of stitches arm/front/back.

    #question. This isn’t really a question but a few other tips to find local yarn stores while traveling. I have had similar luck with Google but another option is using ravelry. In the yarn section there is a LYS local yarn store search. It’s not the most accurate but it will count up the number of shoppers that have stashed into ravelry from yarn bought in store. So if there are a lot of shoppers it really does help narrow it down. I also find that opening the shop website helps gauge if they are still in business. And when in doubt just call the store! Combo of these tips has worked even internationally where the shops websites aren’t in English (went to Denmark and Sweden this year and heading to Montreal next week).

    I like that you have facilities for boarding Toaster when it would be too hot to take him around with you. Sometimes it’s not always possible to take your dog in certain places and boarding him for a day seems a good alternative! I’m sure he will get used to the van after a while,

    Oh my gosh, that little yarnover tip!

    #question Hi Natalie, I ordered the knitty natty colorway from Leading Men and I’m curious if you will we be doing a KAL. I know it might not be that easy because everyone will not be receiving their yarn at the same time. However, if you are doing a KAL, I would be happy to wait for it. You might have already mentioned it. If so I missed it.

    #question When knitting socks for someone else, how do you know how big to make them? Do you ask them to measure their foot? If so, what measurements do you ask for? Or do you just ask for their shoe size and hope for the best? 😅

I have one question for you, I wanted to by you a coffee and I noticed you don’t have a link in your videos, why is this? Is it because you don’t really do tutorials? I can tell you are a very unassuming person, but it’s obvious you put a lot of work into your videos and you really do deserve it! Hope to see the link in future videos. Stay safe and have blessed travels.

    #question Hi Natalie! I have a question about knit companion. It was really cool to see your tip about moving the row along with your voice. I would LOVE to use knit companion for a sweater I'm knitting. The colourwork chart has only 1 repeat per round, and there are about 400 stitches on the body. So each row is about 200 stitches in the chart. What I would like to know is: is there a way to have knit companion break up the chart not only in rows but in sections of stitches? In order to have any idea of where I am on the chart I have split it up into groups of 10 stitches, so that means every time I knit ten stitches I have to put my knitting down and move my bookmark over by one section--I would love to be able to do this with my voice! I love your podcast, your attitude is a real inspiration for kindness and positivity!

    I think for the sleeves on the Allen Glow you probably did 2 repeats on right arm, then 4 repeats left arm, then 4 repeats on each for the rest of the sleeves, ending with 2 on the left arm. (:

    Thank you for all of that information about Toaster! I think all of us dog lovers are really worried about him and hoping that he’ll settle down and start to enjoy the trip. That worry in the back of your mind can’t be fun. My hubby and I are huge Duck fans and jealous that you were there at that nail biter of a game. We live on the border of Washington and Oregon (Portland/Vancouver) so we could have been Husky fans but hubs lived in Eugene next to the stadium for years so the Ducks are our faves!

    #question Hello Natalie. Ive been really enjoying your channel since I discovered it a few months ago. Though I'm more of a crocheter than a knitter watching your videos makes me want to learn how to knit a garment. Garments have been a whole category I've avoided because getting guage is intimidating for me. However I'm reaching a point where I'd like to expand my skills. I think I'd like to try a knitted tank or tee since living in the south means a sweater wouldn't get enough use. Is there a good beginner pattern or two that you can recommend? Also, I don't want to leave anyone out so please say hi to Kent and give Toaster a pat on head for me.🙂

I can also help you with anything you need here in Oregon. I know it’s strange to make this offer as we don’t really know each other but, I think that is how we make friends and I have made really good friends through Instagram and my TH-cam channel. I’m from Brazil and that is just how I am … I know it might be a while before you get to Oregon but let me know if you think we might be able to meet in person and if I can help you with anything 💖
