What great insight to Monique. One of the kindest enablers I know. I blame Monique as well for introducing me to Shetland lace back in 2017, I think. I was a follower of her in IG when she mentioned that she was starting a group on fb early 2018. I leapt at the chance and it’s the greatest group that I know of.
I’m still trying to find a reason to blame Karen for something, just for the sake of tradition, but I think our Shetland lace addiction is definitely Monique’s fault :)
Thank you, Irina and Monique! Lovely interview. Hopefully one day I will muster the courage to spin the required 4 km of 2 ply gossamer for Shetland Stars.
Thank you thank you for doing this interview I am beginning to do lace knitting learning by myself and you gals are such inspirations to me thank you for being here sending all my love. And hey are used to ride a Honda CBR 600 so love you you’re so rad❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰
You say here it's difficult to knit lace in public. Because of getting distracted. I think it depends on where and how 'in public' it is. I am thinking of knitting lace because the yarn is very lightweight ... I thought I can take it with me on my bicycle trips, to have something to knit in the evenings at camping sites. Most of the time I don't get distracted there (I am on my own and others camping there are as couples or families and we all do our own thing). Do you think I am wrong about this??? Even if you think I am wrong I want to try anyway. I already knitted with fine merino during other bicycle-camping-trips. 🙂
btw I ordered three of Monique's patterns and the needed yarn (for one of them) from the other Monique, right after watching those two interviews. I will probably be prepared before next summer ...

I love how real Monique is! Great interview!!
I rewatched it and noticed that I didn't actually answered some questions... i was so nervous but it all went well. Thank you.
We’ll have to do another interview because I still have a ton of questions :)
You didn't seem nervous at all!! I loved listening to you ❤️
@@Fiberchats Sure...

My main problem when knitting lace is good light. I can rarely knit it in the evenings, just too tough on my eyes, specially when it comes to gossamer
@@Fiberchats At summer evenings outdoors the light is good. I mean: from 6 to 9 PM.
