    Ok can I just say, the outfit, the hair, the make-up, I was knitting while I watched this and looked up and thought, “wow, Judy Collins”. Kind of exactly 😊

    THAT QUILT!!!!! Brought tears to my eyes, because we know just how much work went into it, how much love went into it, and how treasured it will be.
    Cole is growing up way too fast.
    Give yourself grace with the firsts of the holiday seasons and such. For me the second year was harder, because time is going so quickly, it was a kick in the pants to realise how much time had passed, and things were getting back to ‘normal’ without Mum there.
    Hennifer, might have come at just the right time.
    Thank you for putting out the episode today. I’m madly trying to get a store sample knit and I was racing to see how many rows I could knit in the span of the episode… (4 in case you were wondering)

    I’m a loose knitter so I knit socks on a size 0! If I use DK I can go up to a size 2. ChiaGoo does make a 1.5 size so maybe try that for your socks or go to 72 stitches but guessing they’d be way too big.

    I have the same issue with my socks. I use size 2 needles with 64 stitches, but they've started to either be too big or stretch out quickly. I tried size 1 needles with 64 stitches and they are snug. I went to the New England Fiber Festival for the first time this year and bought a set of size 1.5 dpns. When I get some of my current WIPS off my needles I'm going to cast on with the 1.5s and 64 stitches and see if that makes a difference.
    And I hear you on the holidays without a parent. My mom passed away the day before Halloween. I had my first Thanksgiving without her. Some days are harder than others. I hope you have a Happy Holiday!

      Someone else mentioned 1.5’s too. I’m not sure I knew that size existed.
      Sorry to hear about your mom. It hasn’t been a good year in the death dept😞Our year of firsts…..sucks

    Maybe you would benefit from trying different sock needles, like maybe the cubic /squared ones? Easier to hold atleast for that smaller size… a few brands make them…, ❤ the quilt is amazing ❤❤❤
