:) Knit picks has a great 50/50 cotton wool blend called Woolen Cotton that I love as someone who runs hot myself, also it is soft and some of the easiest yarn I have worked with.
I would recommend a wool blend for her husband's sweater. A cotton wool usually about 50/50 or hemp and wool (like Hempathy). For those of us who live in warmer climates these garments get the most wear.
Thank you for another informative video. I knit your DRK Everyday Sweater, turned out great. Now I’m starting the Weekender. I’ve wanted to knit for quite awhile. Also knit the Tincanknits flax that got reworked a lot. I am determined to. Have a wonderful day! ❤
For the person asking about yarn for their husband's sweater - I also run hot all the time. I recommend a cardigan rather than a sweater, because then he can keep it open or button it on the rare occassion he feels cold. And then it doesn't ruin an outfit or turn into an ordeal when taking it off (I hate pulling things over my head because of hair and makeup). I'm a cardigan only wearer now, and I love it.
Thanks so much for the trick on putting skeins in ball, I had a very togh skein to ball once and, in retrospect, I think it proobably was because of one strand not being in it's proper place. 🙏
In regards to the hot husband question: depending on his style preferences, maybe consider a cardigan as it may be easier for him to regulate his body temperature.
My stitches are typically very consistent, but I find when I am knitting in the round and then switch to knitting flat when I split for the sleeves, my purl row stitches appear a little twisted when viewing them from the front. I am an English knitter. The difference is noticeable compared to the section knitted in the round. Do you have any suggestions on how to prevent the twist? Thank you.
I love your videos! I’m getting back into knitting after a long hiatus and gleaning a lot of useful info from you. Thanks Andrea!

Love your videos. Thanks for the tip about checking for overlapping yarn before putting the skein on a swift.
I love how you said "don't make a mohair sweater for that hot man" :)))) Love your podcast and find your work so inspiring 🥰
Your patterns are always inspiring. Thanks for answering questions, I learn something with each one that you answer.
Thank you for explaining why at times there is a Robles when winding yarn! This was so helpful to me, ❤

Hello, Do you have suggestions to reduce rowing out on circular needles? Thanks!
