How interesting, I have also started putting my stash on Ravelry after years of not using it. I think it’s because my stash is getting completely out of hand 😂. Lovely projects, I love your beanie, gorgeous colour but as I’m a pink girl at heart I had to do the neon pink Robin beanie 😊. I have also been casting on all the things! Good work on the crochet! I’m a bit torn about using my “good” yarn for blankets. I’ve used a few of the stylecraft kits for my crochet blankets, I’ve completed quite a few of Lucy’s from Attic 24.
Oh yes, you made the pink beanie! 🤭💕 I hope to see a colour-pop of bright neon beanies making an appearance in the sea of black this winter! Haha, yes cataloguing it all certainly is eye opening 😂 I don’t know about you but I was surprised by how much Nutiden I had 🫢 I really need to get knitting with it! I felt bad for my neglected sock skeins & leftovers so I feel better now that they’re being put to use in the blanket.
I love seeing my stash on Ravelry! The database is great. If you add where you've stored the yarn, it will add that to that page on your stash. Click on the field and it will show everything else that's in that place too! Genius! Herdwick is a breed of sheep that originated in the Lake District in the north west of the UK. They are grey and white, so the white bits in your Patons yarn are probably the coarser white bits from their fleece.
Enjoyed watching this arvo & seeing all your projects. Have you tried the Knit Companion app. I use it all the time for lace and fair isle knitting. You can mark off each row and you don’t lose track. Well done on your crochet blanket as well. Cheers Karen.
I'm new to this channel, lovely to see all your projects. Your last remark about easter made me think about seasonal colors. I've never been in the Southern hemisphere, so sorry if I'm asking stupid, but our easter (here Denmark) has a lot of pastel colors and first and foremost green and yellow, the colors of spring. Is easter in Australia in more autumnal colors like orange, red, brown, or have you kept the English "palette"? Happy knitting ❤
Welcome!! Thank you so much for watching! Yes, because we are now in autumn here Easter is a little bit more autumnal in terms of colour palettes. I like to be colourful and still wear my pastels and bright colours, but where I live in Melbourne, everyone starts dressing in black for winter 😂 Melburians are known for wearing a lot of black. Autumn and spring are my two favourite seasons, so as much as I love autumn, I’m also envious of you coming into the bright, colourful sunshine filled months of spring and summer. I hope you’re enjoying the longer days there in Denmark. Ps: I’m also very envious of all the wonderful Yarn suppliers you have up there and Denmark.
LOL - if I put my stash on Ravelry that might be too much honestly and transparency for me to handle! ha ha Loving all your projects and totally support you leaning in hard to the cast on excitement - cast on all the things!!
Haha, no hiding from the truth then! 😂 it is rather revealing 🤭 Hehe thanks! The variety of many WIPs is good for me right now (attention span of a goldfish).
I have some crepe yarn in my stash too! Lovely episode Sian and keep casting on new things as long as it brings you joy 😊 Welcome to the crochet club!
Yes! Thank you! And love the new knit that just fell on your needles over the weekend 😘
Cant wait to see the Amy slipover and cozy cowl!!! Those are SO pretty! Glad to see you and hear what's the news.

Ooo thanks you for that info about Hardwick wool. That makes total sense now 😃
I use coathanger sock blockers too!. Nice to see another podcast from you and to see your knits.
Haha, good to know I’m not alone. Why buy them when you can make ‘Em hey?! 😜

Thanks for the tips Karen
I just found you. We are close in age and have a similar outlook on crafting and making. I'm happy to be here.

I'm about to cast on a Perite Knit sweater. I keep hearing that I should size down. I'm in-between sizes, so I'm going down a size. Thank you.
Yes, definitely size down as there is a lot of positive ease in her designs. Which sweater are you casting on?
Hi. It's me. I'm the problem, it's me!! ha ha - now we can crochet together!
Yes you are! And can’t wait 😜
Some Dutch podcasters I watch say sheepjes (sch kèp ee us or sh kèp ee us). Loving that dickie!
Ooo it's the best when you inherit a stash. Your videos are dangerous - I have been stalking Nutiden yarn down
😂 keep an eye out on my revelry as I may be making some available from my stash soon.
