I just Love the multi-colored cardi! I purchased the pattern, just trying to finish up a few WIP's so I can get started on it. Gorgeous afaghan's!! And Thank You for the Crochet World magazine I won!! I received it, and there's lots of nice patterns inside, Thank Again! Take Care, Blessings Always 💕
Hello my southern Belle...seeing family is always wonderful...been busy with Hubby having surgery and he comes home from rehab on Wednesday...so grateful he's out of pain..have missed so many of you videos...so will play catch up this week..we are getting cold weather in Northern Illinois ...you look amazing in your cardi...😊❤...take care oxox Syl p.s.the knitted dishcloth is great and that funky thing is just what it does..😊 the 3 weight is also softer..use for a face cloth...try the smaller needles..and your "kitchen" cotton projects will shrink...
Good morning, Jeanne! I love the cardigans you have made and the afghans. How could anyone write bad things on your comments, you are the sweetest friend ever. I was finally able to budget and just purchased that beautiful pouch. Love all the wildflower items, so very pretty. Have a lovely Thanksgiving with love, hugs, and prayers.
Hi Jeanne…..so glad you will be having your family for Thanksgiving this next week! 😊🙌 I know you are so excited to see them all. Love the colors in your cardigan…..very pretty Fall colors. Diamond painting is coming along beautifully……..can’t wait to see it finished & to see what color frame you choose. You’re doing good with your knitting! Thanks for sharing your frogging & winding up yarn experience! Your blankets are gorgeous. I agree….not a fan of square blankets due to not being long enough to cover up. Ohhhh I can believe I won this week….the Jeans yarn! Yay! 🙌🙌🧶🧶🙌🙌 Thank you Jeanne for all you do and wishing you & your family a very Blessed Thanksgiving!! 🙏❤️
I think you did the right thing by altering your CAL throw. There are times when, as a crafter, you know that something isn't working to your expectation and liking. By changing your throw, you can use it with pleasure and enjoy it without being bothered that you didn't go back and fix it when you had the chance. I love the cardigan you are wearing. The colors suit you and look very nice with the caramel color you are wearing with it. I wish you and your family a very Happy Thanksgiving!
I don’t usually like yarns with abrupt color changes. However the yarn in your cardi is beautiful and I love it. It has a southwest feel to it. Your dishcloth turned out lovely. Your blanket looks beautiful with the way you did your top and bottom. It’s such a beautiful pattern. Sofies Universe is a beautiful blanket too. After a certain point square blankets feel as though they’ll never end. Congratulations winners 👏🏻!
Congratulations to the winners! Your Multicolor Cardi is so pretty, it would look fantastic with so many different outfits.. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours Jeanne!
Love that cardi you're wearing. I Finished a throw the same way and it worked fine. I agree that longer works better than a square for me too. Have a wonderful holiday and don't stress over wips. Enjoy your knitting.
I went right away to your ETSY page and bought the sweater pattern!! Love the diamond painting and the afhgan!!! Thank you for your wonderful video!! Vicky from Michigan!!! Take care and happy crocheting and knitting!!!
Hi Jeanne, I have a knitted sweater made with acrylic yarn that knitted up pretty well. I will do one in #3 weight yarns, to make a sweater. Congrats to the winners.
Hi Jeanne, thanks for the informative video on how you ripped out on your afghan. Congratulations to the winners, happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Hi Jeanne! Congratulations to this week's winners! Knitting is fun! Beware black dyed cotton sugar and cream will bleed. 😮 I think your Sophie's Universe blanket is beautiful! Your cardigans are so pretty! I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family! Take good care!❤
I’m absolutely in love with your spun color multicolor cardigan!!! The colors are gorgeous…love how you paired it with your top and slacks!!! Beautiful outfit!!! I’ve gathered yarn to make one, hope to start sometime in December. I have several blankets and hat/scarf sets to make first. Love your blankets…we don’t always have to follow the original pattern to the T…I often will add my own flare to a pattern, making it unique to me!!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family…enjoy!!! Stay safe and be blessed ❤🤗🧶
Hi Jeanne, I am new to knitting too and am having similar issues, but I am loving the positive and humorous way you have of looking at mistakes! You are so lighthearted about it all and it kinda lifts me up! I can get so frustrated with my mistakes but your lighthearted manner really helps me keep going and trying again. Thanks so much for being there. I feel I have found a new friend. Happy Thanksgiving!
@@Pauline-uo8zw Pauline thank you for the suggestion about needle size. I’m trying different sizes as I have figured out I am a very tight knitter. I am trying to train myself to not knit so tightly.
Great video. I am new to knitting too. I have made numerous dish cloths and use a US 7 ( 4.5mm) for Sugar & Cream 100% Cotton Yarn. Have a Great Thanksgiving🙂
I use size 7 straight needles for dishcloths with any cotton yarn. I’m a loose knitter and want the cloths to be a little tighter. Love your cardigans, I’m getting ready to crochet your cardi vest. My sister made it, and gets lots of compliments
@@sharendeardorff7235 So nice that your sis has already made the cardi! It’s one of my best patterns for sure. And quite useful all during the cool weather.
Good evening Jeanne, I watched a review of electric winders by Toni Lipsey at TL Yarncrafts today and she had a 40% off if you used her link. It appeared to be a little more than $40. I am contemplating getting one for myself. I also saw the Cats Meow as a kit from Herrschners that looks very nice. I really like your afghans from Juan and the Sophie's Universe.
Hi !! The Cat's Meow blanket ,,, if you have time you can see different colored ones made by people for boggy creek on Juans channel on the replay lives of boggy and you can see Nancy's too that she has so many different ones every week there is a couple has to be the replay live ones for both , pretty cardigan !! Nice color !! The cal with Juan looks awesome like ur ending instead of bobbles , Have a Happy Thanksgiving !! Enjoy !!
I love your cardigans--they are so nicely fitted and not baggy. I’ve never made one of yours yet because I’ve not had a lot of success in making sweaters. They never fit and are always too baggy. So I’m a bit gun shy now about trying it again. Perhaps I’ll take the plunge in 2025 and give it a whirl! That Sophie’s Choice Afghan is gorgeous. I saw Llama Mama Kayla work on hers in videos she put out probably a year or two ago and I thought then about attempting it. I’m a beginner knitter too and have never learned how to pick up dropped stitches. I tried to make socks a year ago--that was an epic fail!! Too complicated for me! Loved your video--hope you and your family have a blessed Thanksgiving together…🦃🍁🍂 ❤-Brenda
@@bhallmark3390 I encourage you to try a more fitted sweater. Not baggy!!! Those do nothing for your style. They are comfy though. I would not suggest the SU for a beginner crocheter. After a few rounds, it becomes quite a challenge. It’s doable but not fun if you have never attempted a large project with stitch counts on every round and complicated stitch combinations. Just a thought. You may be ready!! I will be knitting a lot longer before attempting a pair of socks. Sheesh!!
I don’t care for square afghans either. Beautiful sweater. I’m new to knitting too AND struggling. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving
@@rondahoskins9997 Same to you, Ronda!! I understand about the knitting. It’s a craft I’ve never really tried until now. I did knit a very simple cowl last year out of a 5 or 6 bulky. Totally different from a dishcloth with small stitches. We should keep going to learn it. If all these other people can do it, we can too!
I need to make more knitted dishcloths. I usually make mine tighter using smaller needles. I can't remember the size. Great job! 😊 Mistletoe should be lovely too. Walmart doesn't have those pretty color ways in our store. The knitted scarf is pretty. I've got to learn how to make lifelines in knitting. Lol The afghan is impressive. ❤ That's large cakes! Do you use a scale to measure the yarn? I've thought about getting a basic scale. 🧶 Sophie's is fabulous! Pretty!!! 🎉 Congratulations to the winners! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 Stay safe and well.
Beautiful cardis. If need to frog knitted items. Think of the lost stitch as part of a ladder, then hook up the ladder. Might help. Happy Thanksgiving to all!
I love seeing your knitting progress. I have a Christmas stocking that was knitted for me as a baby and have vowed to learn so i can make it. I'm also very new so cant do complicated things, like purl. But what i found works instead of learning to actually purl is instead of switching my needles for the next row of purls, i just do knit st from the right needle to the left! Unfortunately it only works if your doing the whole row that way but at least you can get the stockinette st effect still just doing the knit stich you know
@OnTheHookCrochetwithJeanne I've also heard if you work on circulars, once you finish a row, if you just push it around the wire to the left side and continue to knit it also results in a stockinette stich. This one I haven't tested since I don't have circulars, but seems like it might work as well.
I love your vidios. I go to Ruby Stedmens knit and crochet vidios she is so easy to follow and she explains everything so well. I knew how to knit but l like her knit items.Happy Thanksgiving.
When frogging ontoa winder i always find it most helpful to fold the project up so there is either only 1 or 2 sides pointing towards the winder. That way it can pull almost a straight line back and forth instead of it having to go around in a circle and the yarn catching on the project.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family ! I’m rewatching this episode and May I suggest if you replace your ball winder to buy one that has enclosed gears. Juan likes his Knit Picks brand, so just fyi ! Also, I love how you finished off your Afghan cal with Juan, especially your addition of the heart borderline ! 👏 👏👏great job ❤
@@sunshinesuzi5324 Thank you, Suzi! I’m finishing the Sophie’s Universe today and will be done with it. I’ll look at the KnitPicks winders. Thanks again!!
Hi Jeanne, it's very easy to pick up stitches with a crochet hook while knitting even if its way down your project. You can find videos on youtube to show you how.
If you are doing just a plain knit pearl then all you need is a crochet hook. find the open stitch and put the crochet hook into it. then slip stitch using the empty bar right above the stitch on your hook it is like climbing a ladder. then when you reach the top just put it back on the needle. hope this helps should the need arise.
Hello from Northern MN. I have made that cardi pattern twice and it is always hands down the best fitting sweater I have ever made. I am wondering if I can adapt the same principles to knit and hope to try it some day. (I knit too) I have a ball winder I really like. It is the same one used heavy duty at the local fiber group vendor shop I enjoy going to and having some of my sheepy products for sale (small scale). It is the Strach ball winder and a bit more on the pricey side, but well worth it. Do you think the white yarn on the edge of the frogged blanket might have been slightly larger than the other in the blanket? On such a large scale of edging it would ripple if that was the case. You did some nice adaptations.
@@trudydelich2920 Trudy, thanks for your ball winder suggestion. Also your encouragement about my afghan dilemma. The white yarn was Red Heart SS. Other yarns in the afghan were different - Caron SS, Mary Maxim, etc. It was a total mixture. Probably best to use the same yarn.

Don't you always tell us to "make it your own"? That is what you did with the afghan; your colors are very pretty. I have been doing BRIOCHE crochet---looks just like knitting--- and I am loving it!
Your cardigans are beautiful & you model everything so lovely. You might find it easier to knit with the needles & count the stitches at end of every row,sorry I know you don't like counting. Hope you & Mr On the Hook have a lovely Thanksgiving with your family. 🐥🧶🦃🍂♥️🏴
As a crochet person who learned how to knit, I found it awkward at first. Just keep practicing, it will come easier. Find someone who knows how to knit to show you how to pick up a dropped stitch. I found it pretty easy to do using a crochet hook, especially if you catch it early.
Hi Jeanne love everything you have made. Thank you for sharing everything.Congrats to the winners.You don’t worry about next week take it off and spend that time with your family.Happy Thanksgiving and God bless you all.
