I am a new male knitter and I enjoy watching your videos. I started knitting after a stroke. I found repeating the movement helpful but I also find that knitting is not easy. I would very much enjoy a beginners video. So much to learn.
Hi Jack. When ever I choose a pattern to knit, I learn at least one new technique. It will take you a life time to learn them all.
Hi Jack, I had a stroke in my 30’s and found knitting help with the spasticity. My physical therapist helped me find ways to knit easier. There is a really good book by Carson Demers called Knitting Comfortable that helped me a lot. He is featured on Fruity Knitting on TH-cam. Fruity knitting is inspirational and you learn a lot. I always do Stephen’s knit alongs as I learn so much. Wishing you all the best 💗
@@susanlmackie thank you for the support and information. I plan to check on the book. I find that my left side does not always agree with my right side so I tend to make mistakes but when the knitting goes well it feels better.
Try some earlier patterns they are simpler knits.
I’d love a tour of the shop please and some chat about how you got started and where you see it going maybe.
Stitch gets more relaxed as you talk about relaxing knits🧶
Would love a knitprovisation workshop for shawls. Like if you don’t fancy a particular section how you can vary? As for dog size I have a mini dachshund who never stopped stealing all the suri…
I’m so glad you are making a series and it is so nice to meet Stitch. You have such a joyful positive persona and we need that positivity. Thank you so much. 🥰
Yes, yes, yes!!!….doggie sweaters. I signed up for your Brioche Class so by the time your doggie collection starts, I’ll be ready for the one Stitch is wearing…woohoo!!!
I love how Stitch was sleeping in your arms
I came for you and stayed for STITCH!,,,😃😂🥰
stitch has to be the most laid back pup ever. I wish my two tiny Yorkies were so calm. They are crazy, always chasing around having two speeds, super-speedy or asleep.
This was like having coffee with a friend to catch up and it was relaxing and fun to watch. I have a retriever/border collie mix, lots of energy but more of a blanket to curl up on kind of dog, though in the winters here in Wyoming , he could use a colorful out for walks sweater. He about 40 pounds.
I have a Frenchie too
I LOVE the idea of a modular sample piece. All the different types of stitches knitted into blocks, so, stranded, brioche, cable, lace then brought together West knits style in a modular shawl or throw xxx
Favorite tips and beginner techniques is always great to.watch!
So happy that you’ve started this TH-cam series! Love everything that you mentioned for upcoming episodes and workshops and will definitely take the brioche workshop. I’ve been so intimidated by that stitch and based on your MKAL tech videos I’m sure I’ll be able to learn it. Looking forward to the next episode!
Let’s see/hear it all!! Your history to present would be great to learn. A modular project with lace, cables, stranded color work, and other Westknits craziness all in one would be an awesome shawl.
I like it if you do a beginner episode. Thanks.
Love love love everything , show the shop , show the studio , show everything , brilliant thanks for sharing xxxx
loved listening about your projects and how you work your patterns. I have been a knitter for about 50 years and have always followed patterns to a tea. Then i discovered westknits and my internal knitter was twitching as i love love love colour, texture and the unique process of your patterns. To make items to suit yourself to change and play and experiment is truly marvelous i now incorporate this fun behavior in my other craft spinning, weaving and dying and it makes me happy. snuggles to brioche and stitch pets are a blessing and fill you with unconditional love.
Yes, please ! More episodes 🥰 and please put a pocket in the cardigan 🤩
Oh my goodness Stitch is a curie patootie!
Yes please to dog sweaters and a workshop. Please consider larger sizes. We have a 110 pound mastiff lab mix who loves the custom sweater I knit him. He actually takes it out of his box when he wants it on. I had no luck in finding a pattern for larger sized dogs so I made one up as I went. It would be fabulous to have a well designed pattern.
I love to hear you create and brainstorm live, it is wonderful.
Yessss to a dog sweater workshop! I have a Chihuahua and a Dachshund who love sweaters! Congrat.s on Stitch she's adorable.
🧶 Loved the format of this video! Stitch is adorable 🥰 and yes to the Mash up and mixing textures, fading, and modular knitting 🧶
Omg - would love to have a pattern. I make dog sweaters for shelters so I make all sizes. Looking forward to the pattern. Love your shows and instructions.
Omg…. A new baby!!!!! West knit pupperized!!!!! Yes!!!!!👏🏾. Yes also on the “things I wish I knew”
My 6 pound chihuahua could probably wear the size you made for Ditching. She's adorable! I can't imagine life without my little guy. I love your videos. You are so amiable and seem very approachable. I love how you explain new techniques and point out how to correct mistakes. More please.
Definitely more of these videos please, I loved it :)
I might be going there next week watch this space 😉😉
Stitch is adorable and quite the lady! I am so excited to hear of a Penquino workshop, and the Modular workshop. Thanks for the sneak peek at that workshop’s project. You mentioned incorporating different stitches in a modular project. I think that would look amazing! Really enjoyed watching this. I feel like I’ve missed you recently, so great to ‘catch-up’.
Stitch is sosososososo sweet. What a great addition to the west family. Really enjoyed your video. Cannot wait for the next one. Thank you. Cindy
I have four pups that all love sweaters, a Chihuahua, a Lab and two Great Danes! The Danes love clothing, especially since we live in northern New Hampshire where it sometimes gets to -30 F in the winter. So pup sweaters in multiple sizes would be AMAZING!! They deserve to look as fabulous as we do!
Pattern Idea: Stitch picks the next yarn, then Brioche picks one, then Stitch, then Brioche, and so on until the piece is finished!
I’m always curious as to what the reverse side of the knitting looks like…in shawls/scarfs. It can be part of my decision making process. I guess I really like reversible knitting…..
Keep up with the good work. The podcast just got a thumbs up from me….
I LOVE having a peek inside your creative mind!
Stitch is so cute, and the brioche sweater is not only adorable, but very practical as it stretches every which way to fit. I have a small long hair chihuahua, about the size of Stitch, that is begging to have a colorful brioche sweater.
Hi Stephen: Love this episode, seeing Stitch, your WIP's, hearing your ideas and learning about the wool (especially when and how they are best used). I have lots of your patterns but never know what yarn is best to use for which project. I've signed up for your Brioche Workshop as I really enjoyed the "Textures Unite" which was the first time I was successful with the brioche stitch. You are an excellent teacher so keep up the workshops. I've done the Vertices Unite and looking forward to your Modular Knitting Workshop. If you could show part of your store/workplace each episode (for those of us who can't travel). Please keep up with your short tutorials as I've saved most of them on TH-cam but if you put them all in one place, that would be helpful. Would love to hear your story although you have touched on it in some videos. Love to hear your different options in your patterns (i.e. you can do this, or this, or this ...... ) as it sure helps someone like me who can't design worth beans. Your don't stress attitude puts things in such a positive light for me and I'm looking forward to more Episodes like this. It's a good way to get to know you and how you go through your designing journey for your projects. Love to hear the previews and tidbits and I'm a sucker for details. lol. Thank you for all you do.
Hi. Love this new podcast. Stitch is so cute. I love Yr idea of mixing stranded knitting with texture/ garter/brioche, other Westknits techniques.
All the thumbs up to pupknits!!! My mini schnauzer definitely needs a sweater in her wardrobe!
Yes!!! Pup knits. I have a 10 pound Yorkshire terrier and a 5 pound Yorkie. The super small one simply stopped growing and she’s always cold. THANK YOU!!!
I honestly feel like I'm going to end up casting on all the Westknits sweaters this year. gone on a bit of a sweater knitting kick and I love me some Westknits patterns because of the regular changes that keep me on my toes either in colour or texture!
My knit worthy dog is my husband's service dog Cooper. He is a husky king Shepard mix so unfortunately no sweater for our house wolf...but my best friend has a Yorkie who is knit worthy too
My granddog is a big boxer boy! So sweet! I have knit a sweater for him. He doesn’t like the cold! Stitch is adorable!
My daughter has a rescue dog that has grown into a mixed hound breed called Mr Beau, as he is so handsome! I am going to knit him a sweater to open on Christmas Day so that he doesn't feel left out and I like the brioche design that Stitch is wearing.
Loved the video, and hearing about what’s coming up. I’ve admired your work for many years, but always thought it was beyond my ability. After taking the plunge with Shawlography, and loving it, I’m currently knitting my third Westknits design. :-) Would love to see more on pup shawl knitting. I have a 14 pound bichon/poodle mix and have knit sweaters for my boy, but he’d look so handsome in a Westknits design.
Lastly, I’m lucky enough to be coming to Amsterdam this fall, and looking so forward to shopping at S&P’s in person, so I’d love to see a video store tour! Thanks for all you do, Stephen! You bring a lot of joy and beauty into the world .❤️
I would love love love a pet sweater knitting workshop!!! We have a Frenchie, Chihuahua, and guinea pig😆
Loved this meandering meeting Stitch. So cute!
Love to hear you and Stitch sit and chat. 🥰I would like to learn more about modular knitting, different ways of picking up stiches to create different looks and joining the different parts together and how to make different sizes of Icords and to make it look nice
Really enjoyed this video. Especially liked hearing about BFL and the benefits of this yarn. I would love to hear more of your favourite things, such as yarns, and what you would suggest using them for (pros and cons). Thanks!
Same for me!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this episode! you and now your pups are such a joy. I'm so intimidated by starting a sweater and I want to knit one. What confuses me is how to measure for a particular pattern. As a woman, do I measure chest with or without a bra, padded or non padded, lol do I measure underarms or is it shoulder to underarms, arm length....how do I know which style sweater will fit best....
I love the updates, behind the scenes, I like them all.
Stitch is adorable. She is such a good sport with you wiggling her all around. I would love a puppy sweater for my Chihuahua/fox terrier mix.
Yes! More please! What about a vlog... a day in the life ... favourites places to go around Amsterdam (potential vacation spot)... favourite foods, drinks, etc., of course knitting and more knitting!
Yes to the Mash UP workshop. AND the pet sweater workshop....I have two Chihuahua crosses.
i am soooo happy you got the pups. nothing better than woolly goodness and puppy belly. and in your case- lots of sweet snoring. love the Keith Haring wallpaper... i was fortunate enough to chat with him down in the NYC subway way way way back in 1982. we did not know then how big his artwork would become. so glad to see it now and then. yeah
Thanks Stephen for your infectious smile and all the fun new projects coming up. I enjoyed meeting Stitch, she is beautiful. I would love to participate in a pup sweater class. I have a Chihuahua/mix and she can always use additional warmth. Your current format was great and I look forward to more. Happy Knitting
This was a fantastic video! Welcome to the family Stitch and I look forward to seeing Brioche again too!
I thought my dog was well dressed until I saw Brioche and Stitch in their custom garments. My little girl is 15 years old and a Maltese X Miniature Fox Terrier. I’ve been knitting jumpers for Miss Pippi Shortsox since she was a tiny puppy. She needs jumpers more than ever now that her coat is thinning and she’s had a Vet check to eliminate causes. I loved this video, I think you’ve persuaded me to make a Penguono for myself.
I love the idea of the Mashup workshop. Love your designs and the full range from comfort knitting to adventurous!
Thanks for doing this. Lovely to see you and catch up Stitch is adorable.
I have 4 yorkies children and I love them whole heartly , 3 girls and 1boy and I look for new things to knit them all the time.
For my daughter’s pit bull. She is a sweetheart and has outgrown her sweater!
Brilliant. Thank you for such an entertaining view of you and the pup and of course all the yarny stuff. More of EVERYTHING please.
The idea of an amazing dog sweater pattern from you brightens soul.
My husband is the only knit worthy human in my life aside from my fur kids. I have big boys, but big boys like nice things too. Standard Poodle and Goldendoodle. 🥰
So nice spending the afternoon with you! Keep up the fun!
YES... do the fringe... that's my style... NO WASTE... no mistakes.. only creative opportunities!!!
Mash-up workshop sounds great! Love learning new stitches and different ways of putting fabric together.
Oh Stephen this is long over do thanks so much for podcasting your a natural .
Please keep it up you have so much to share, Thank you .
Stitch is heavenly. She looks like a real cuddler. I’d love to see a Day in the life of Stephen West - I’d love to know more about what it is like for an American living in Amsterdam. I’m also interested in your take on colorwork and, yes, dog and cat sweaters would be awesome.
Oh yes please a series of pup patterns would be superb Stephen. I have a toy poodle - Riley - our little girl lives the life of Riley for sure. She weighs in a a whopping 3.3 kilos!! It would be such fun to knit her a sweater. Love this new series - Thnak you
Oh yes Stephen!! Doggie knits galore please! We have 2 chihuahuas and an Australian shepherd. The Australian shepherd isn’t pocket sized like the two girls but he would look so handsome in brioche. I also love that you are including your children in the videos! They are adorable 🥰
Also I love the Keith Haring wall.
1st Timer ...really enjoyable episode. Stitch is so sweet and her sweater is very cute.
Thank you, Stephen. You are a true inspiration.
Loved loved loved this video - please make lots more with all the things!! Would love workshops on the colour techniques like marling and fading. Also an episode or guide or which shawls or patterns to knit for 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 skeins or which ones use mini skein sets and how many minis you need.
Would love what's new in the shop, behind the scenes of the studio, your favorite spots in Amsterdam, pet knitting. Thanks for sharing! I am a better knitter because of your generous spirit and encouragement.
You have the most wonderful and fun way about you! Thank you for the sharing your pupdates!
Loved this video. Please continue. All your workshop demo are wonderful. You make it look so easy and slow enough where we can follow along. Yes,please more, more of anything you want to throw out there!!
You sharing tips with beginner knitters sounds awesome. It’s good to get inspired to try things when you are a new knitter.
Stranded knitting with your pink and orange background for inspiration would be quite something.
Workshop of all the different cast on/bind off techniques and when and why to use them … loved this video and all your designs.
Yes this set up is great-I'm all about randomness in the podcasts--We miss you in Denver
Stitch is absolutely precious
Yes to modular and stranded knitting. Tour of shop and favorite things would be fun!
Yes Doggie sweaters please, and marl cardigan, ohh just everything!
Love the video and love stitch.
Loved your video! Yes please to a full shop tour of Stephen and Penelope's and the beautiful city of Amsterdam.
Hi Stephen Peace and Love, It's Stephanie from Chicago ... my friends dog Champ who is a rescue pit mix loves to just open his mouth and close it over the yarn I'm working with and rest his head in my lap. My daughter's cat Cairo he loves the expensive stuff too. I threw acrylic at him and laid it out and he walked right passed it as if to say c'mon Grandma (rolling his eyes). Be well and safe. wavvvvviiinng
i love the idea of a day-in-the-life style videos, or studio tours! but honestly, i'll watch anything you put out! loved getting to catch up with you!
Doggy patterns would be grand! I have a cavoodle and a cavalier King Charles spaniel. I love Stitch’s jacket 😀. In terms of content - the variety you suggested would be really entertaining so all of it please! Thank you for injecting a massive shot of originality, colour and creativity into fibrecrafting.
This style of video is very inspirational and fun to see how much you love what you are doing! So keep on making them. Thanks much😊
Would love to hear more pupdates and sneak peeks of upcoming designs. I like the idea of showing new or favorite yarns/tools as long as there is a mix of price points to fit lower budgets.
Stitch is a funny girl! The flop over of her head like I’m over this! Lol
It would be a dream come true to test knit for you! Can you talk about how you go about choosing testers for your patterns and that process?
Workshops on how to swatch for sweaters with a colorwork yolk or all over colorwork would be very helpful. Workshops on how to carry yarns through different types of knitting projects would be helpful. A knitted capsule wardrobe discussion for an elementary school child would be great that allows the knit wear to change in use as the child grows (leg warmers, socks, cardigans, sweaters, tunics, hats, wraps, mitts, etc.). Your new sweater designs are delightful!
Stitch is adorable!!!! tail wags to all.
More of everything. I so love your videos. Workshops are wonderful. So much to learn!
Great fun. I would love studio and shop tours. Also I find it really helpful and engaging when you show and talk about your patterns, helps me understand them and choose what I’d love to knit. You are inspiring. And love your pups!
Love this kind of videos. Love to see modern lace, brioche fixing mistakes, would like to see monthly new yarns and your combinations of colors.
Omg! Stitch is super adorable!! I love the pupdates and yesss to the pup knit fashion 🤩😍
Hello my love - I knit for my mother's Havanese in Texas. Your family is beautiful! Congratulations.
Yes, enjoyed this episode and will enjoy many more. Doggie sweaters workshop would be great!!! YES for Q and A. Love your pups!!!
You have a PUPPY - of course you need calming knits!
I LOVE the idea of mash-up knitting!
Stephen, I've heard about you, read about you for years from hand craft people I love and respect. I've seen photos of your beautiful and glorified work. I NEVER thought you would be so kind and friendly, approachable and dedicated to helping your followers. I'm enchanted by you as I have been enchanted by your work in the past. I subbed and can't wait to become more engaged with your outreach. ❤❤😍😍
Stephen when he is performing his shawls reminds me a lot of Papageno.
I enjoy very much his channel and his experience and his lovely dogs.
I am Renate sending greetings from Tyrol!
