So i do recommend using a stitch msrker with a number attached to the right side near the edge to remind you changing the needle tip ❤ begginning of the r
I loved your podcast episode so much! 🩷Throughout the whole episode I really strongly felt the Lord’s presence without you even mentioning that you are christians. I then *had* to know if you are christians!🤓 But your graceful way to talk to each other and this very sweet and special atmosphere in your video & your personalities just DID something to me. I’m so happy to have found you! You really inspire me to look at knitting through a different lens and encourage me to be a more soft spoken and encouraging woman of God🫶🏼 Very excited to see more of you guys!🌿
Ahh this was lovely! You both seem so nice. I do agree that you are very active listeners what is great but less ideal in the video. Looking forward to the next video! 💕
Aw thank you for the sweet words! Recording / sharing this has been humbling but so grateful for the kind feedback like yours to learn and grow from 🤎 - Liz
Beautiful makes. Thanks for sharing. Paige - I love your green Step by Step. I have some Madelinetosh yarn in the colorway Seaglass which is a lovely spring green and you have inspired me to make a cardigan with it. Either the Eva cardigan or the Step by Step. I want to make more cardigans and i think a nice V neck cardigan would be perfect. Liz - Well done on so much progress in one year of knitting. I understand your desire to improve on your butter yellow cardigan but it looks great, at least on camera. Going down a needle size for purling is a great suggestion or you could also try wrapping the yarn in the other direction as it uses less yarn. Then on the knit row, you just have to knit the stitches through the back loop as they will be mounted in the other direction. I have so many makes from 2024, it is hard to pick a favorite. I do love my Storm Sweater and my Champagne Cardigan. Also my Armor Sweater by Ankestrick which i did as a test knit and Camisole #9 out of KfO Cotton Merino (love that yarn). And, and, and.... Happy to have subscribed and look forward to you next video.
@@mostlyknitting thank you for such a kind and intentional response! I love both my Step by Step and Eva Cardigans, and would definitely recommend either pattern. I knit my Eva cardigan a couple years ago and get sooo much use out of it, and definitely want to make it again. Thanks for sharing about your favorite projects! They are all such beautiful patterns 🤍 -Paige
Yay! I love new podcasts and especially knitting podcasts with two people. You both have great energy and look forward to hearing more from you in the future 🙌
Your butter yellow sweater experience resonates with me a lot. I knit continental and my knitting tension differs when knitting in the round vs flat. I am relearning to purl when knitting flat and it is helping in making the tension a bit more even, although purling in this new way is breaking my brain and is taking a long time 😅
@@rutakavali Aw I’m so sorry you’ve had this experience as well! I know it can feel discouraging. I am cheering you on!! I’d love to hear - what is the new way you are purling while knitting flat? - Liz🤎
This is very fun new podcast ❤ love seeing knits from new knitters very encouraging to a fairly new knitter!! I think you girls should have some fun creating an interesting background for yourselves!! You’re both too cute to be up against such a boring backdrop! Congratulations… keep up the good work 🎉
@@CarylBurroughs - Aw thanks for the sweet words! We are so glad we can be an encouraging watch. We are cheering you on in your knitting🥰 also we may or may not be thinking up different backdrop options for the next videos😉stay tuned!
Congrats on your first episode! I've subscribed. You didn't ask, but I can't help myself giving advice and I must nominate mittens as a great first stranded color work project because they are super forgiving when it comes to fit. Also, don't be afraid of intarsia if you like the look of it. I actually think it can be easier than stranded because tensioning is not so much a part of it. Good luck, Liz! Can't wait to see what you make.
Ok, also... three things you might consider trying to make your purl tension tighter to match your knitting tension. 1. Use two different size needle tips, so that you're using the smaller one (it's in your right hand) on purl rows and the larger one on knit rows. 2. Wrap the yarn in the opposite direction on purl rows. Note that this will result in your stitches facing the wrong direction so you will need to knit through the back on knit rows so that they don't end up twisted. 3. Try knitting continental on your knit rows and continue English throwing on your purl rows. While the other two methods may tighten your purl gauge, continental knitting can loosen your gauge on knit rows to help it match purling tension.
@@CelesteKnits Thank you for watching, Celeste! That truly means a lot that you’d want to subscribe🤍 I also appreciate your thoughts, support and insight on both the recommendation for a color work project (mittens sound so fun) and tips for my tension! I’m currently working on a drop shoulder again so I will have to give an update in our next video on how it is going / goes! I appreciate you and your advice is valued! - Liz :)
I loved your first episode, and appreciate the conversation about creating vs. consuming. Can’t wait to see your next episode. My favourite knit from 2024 is my Wharf Vest by Elizabeth Smith. It’s a great layering piece.
@@matriarchitect7809 - Aw thank you for watching! That’s so exciting that you just knitted your first sweater and that you have loved knitting! 🤎What pattern did you use for your first sweater?
My mom thought me how to knit when I was 6-7 years old. Since then I knitted small pieces time to time..but recently I have decided take it another level and now, can’t stop 😅 I have knitted winter bluff from Ashley. My next project is a striped sweater from Petiteknit and after that daydream cardigan from kutuvokika.. As you can see I am getting very serious over here! We’ll see☺
Hi! Love your step by step garments! I’m knitting the cardigan too right now, out of some handspun angora. I can’t wait to wear it. Love your styles.😊😊
Subscriber 273… love your color choices and welcome to TH-cam! So glad the algorithm brought me to you, your style is similar to mine ❤, on my third ever sweater right now as I watch…great to see beginners like me learning and being good friends! ❤
Congratulations on your first podcast! Re: tension- may I suggest you try Continental knitting? Throwing can be challenging with tension. Since I learned Continental, I have a lot better control plus my knitting has sped up a lot.
Hi Cindy! Thank you so much for your sweet comment & for your insight about the tension! I had thought about trying Continental knitting so you may have just inspired me to give it a go! - Liz
@ I’ve forgotten to say thanks for the tip to use mohair with Drops Nepal. Last year I bought Drops Nepal for three sweaters, it was a sale at Wool Warehouse and I couldn’t resist buying all that yarn. I made only one sweater and that one is pilling like mad. It is very soft and warm but the pilling is very disappointing. I’ll try holding Nepal with mohair for the other two sweaters. May I ask what gauge are your sweaters when holding Drops Nepal with mohair? Thanks.
@@jadrankacarmichael5392 - so glad to hear that it is helpful! I actually got gauge while holding the mohair! That was my first sweater ever though so I would be curious if I would still get gauge if I was holding both today since my tension has changed. I’d love to hear how it goes / your experience if you end up trying it! 🤎
Fantastic first episode! You both did great, and your knits are lovely. I'm only surprised you're using so many Scandinavian yarn brands. I felted my only sweater in knit picks simply wool, and if I had access to more of that, I'd knit 10 more sweaters. It's like peer gynt on crack. Lots of love from Stockholm Sweden 🇸🇪
I think for tensioning you should try the flicking method which is similar to how you throw but you don't let go of the needles and you position the working thread a bit different
I loved hearing about your favorite knits this year!! Can’t wait to see what you both make in 2025! Hopefully we’ll get to make some things together 🤗🤍
A really sweet sweater that I made as my second sweater was the Mellow Mood Sweater by Julia Piro, or K N I T W I T H E S E N I Q U E. it has details, casual wear with jeans feel to it, but the drape is beautiful and is an interesting pattern for a simple sweater.
This was such a sweet video to watch. Thank you both for taking the time to get together, film, edit, and post this. My favorite makes from 2024 were both cardigan patterns that I made several times: the Chestnut Grove Cardigan and the Sticks & Stones Cardigan. I’m actually hosting a cardigan KAL. (Feb 1st - April 30th) If either of you want to join let me know and I’ll get the info to you. 😊❤
Aw thank you so much for the incredibly kind and encouraging comment, Christie! :) It means so much to us! Also both of those cardigan patterns look beautiful - you are so gifted! :) We would love to hear more details about the cardigan KAL if you want to DM us both on Instagram!
What a sweet first podcast! Congratulations 🩷 I love your step by step sweaters, I was not familiar with that pattern. I am going to Copenhagen this summer for a few days. I am not familiar with the mist-see yarn things.
Aw thank you so much, this is so sweet and encourages us! Have a wonderful time in Copenhagen this summer, we are excited for you to experience the beautiful and inspiration there! :)
The olive green cardigan that with the black and white gingham Lane pants is the Eva Cardigan by PetiteKnit! I knit it in Berroco Ultra Alpaca in the colorway Hops :)
Pilling doesn't mean that the garment isn't wearing well. It just means that the short hairs are sticking up and need to be gleaned. Buy a sweater shaver. I know every knitting podcaster talks about this, but it's one of those things that's just a waste of time, and blames perfectly good yarn for something that's not true. Animal hair pills. Can't be helped.
@@RJ-qv8ku - thanks for sharing your thoughts! I don’t think it’s a waste of time to mention because it’s something I’d like to know even though I don’t mind too much if something pills. I think it’s just a personal opinion / value - to each their own! But I do love hearing your take on this so thank you for taking the time to share🥰
wow i couldn't get through the first 5 minutes because the girl on the left kept going 'mhm' 'yh' 'mhm' 'yh' so incredibly disstracting when you're trying to hear the other person speak. Please turn of your mic if you're gonna make annoying noises like that
I appreciate what you are saying here, and there are also kinder ways of requesting something from another human who is doing something for the first time and for free.
I noticed too but what really resonated with me was the encouragement/support these two have for eachother. Knitting friends are the best. Honestly, it warms my heart 😊😊😊 Maybe there was a better way to share that piece of feedback.
Your comment may come off as a bit harsh, but I agree. I first skipped through the video and now decided to just quit because I can't focus on what Paige is saying. I'll come back for the next video though, because I'm confident they'll learn from their mistakes in this first video!
