Great work, thank you! One little tip: Don't hang the maker at one single stitch, take two to three, dnder and over means the stitch and 1 to 2 stitches under it so it woun't make the stich log and longer. The heavier the maker is the faster it hangs out the stitch.
Had to smile about your Texas food stops. Live in AZ, grew up in TX. When we visit family in TX also have a list of must food to eat while there. Have Whataburger in AZ. But for some reason Whataburger in TX always seems to taste better. Also a must have when in TX is barbecue and catfish
How fun to watch your trip to Texas! I live in Amarillo, Tx and loved seeing your first stop was Whataburger 😊. It was a fun episode , and I look forward to seeing your finished sweater project!
New subscriber here! I lived in Ft Worth for 3 years and I still miss the food. I have my usual stops, too. I also always try to visit West 7th Wool in Ft Worth when I'm there. :) They're my favorite.
I get the food thing. I've been plant based for over 2 years, but when I go back to Mississippi twice a year, I intentionally plan to eat fried catfish and BBQ a couple of times from my favorite places.
Thanks Natalie for this great vlog. I always struggle with how much knitting to bring. I usually have too much . I’ve only done one trip this year to London and I got that about right with one sock project , one baby project and a hat . Funny enough my daughter and I spent most of our time eating at places that are usually super hard to get a booking at but London was much quieter this year
I am currently knitting a 2x2 ribbed hat in Felici self striping. I am happy with the results, and I am not knitting a round, because each stripe is only 3 or 4 rounds. It looks fine.
Hi Natalie, quick question: when you began the yarn winding, you attached something to top of your swift to hold the end of the yarn. What is that called and where did you get it from? It looks immensely useful.
Ramona, just watching your blog in Texas really made me homesick. I was born in Sherman but grew up in Amarillo many, many years ago. I am now living in Maryland.
Ramona, If it is what I think you are talking about, I made that for Natalie using a piece of packing foam. It cuts easily. Once you have the shape you want, just create a hole in the bottom and notch in the top. Office scissors work great for this. Beauty of it is, it doesn't cost anything.
Natalie you should do a vlog where you show us all your project keepers! You have such an awesome collection 😍

You are such a cutie! And you inspire me. I'm 72..........old enough to be your great grandmother!
I love seeing that I'm not the only one who spends so much time planning travel knitting!
Same!!! I can pack my clothes in 15 minutes, but my projects take me a solid 30 to make sure I have all situations covered. 😂
Wow so fun! That LYS looks amazing!
Super cute the pizza and your other stitch marker is a Hispanic pastry called “a cónchá” sweet and soft when fresh.
The sweet bread on your stitch marker is called a “concha”, meaning shell . A Mexican staple. 😊
I am looking at your yarn swift. I see a stopper for the end of the yarn. Ingenious. What is it called? I need one.
Yep - definitely a Texas trip - Whataburger, Wienerschnitzels & El Fenix -- all my favorites :-)
The North Texas Yarn Crawl was a ton of fun (but expensive!). Glad you had a good time while visiting!

I enjoyed your podcast ! Thanks ❤
I just got back from Texas on Saturday. I didn’t get to visit my favorite yarn shop. I took a lot of knitting with me since we drove.
Omg the broken rib pattern yarn combo is BEAUTIFUL! Great idea!

Hi Natalie! Thanks for sharing your Texas travels! I wanted to taste all the food you got...Yummo!
I really miss the wiener schnitzel and whataburger too. I haven’t been able to get back to Texas in years. Maybe decades thanks for sharing
Ohh Whataburger-they are my favorite fries 😍😍😍
I was thinking of you when I was on the crawl and went to McKinney
Its always nice to peek into your trips😊
Thank you for Vloging and taking us with you!! All of the food looked so Yummy!!!
Whatabuger is a must!
So much fun Natalie. The food and yarn are most important-loved it! I can't wait till Vlogmas!!
Fun video! I love the travel ones as we can tag along vicariously with you 😂 and you give great tips for traveling with our WIPs 👍🏼

You are lucky, I would not get near an aircraft in Europe with knitting needles, let alone scissors.

Toaster so did the side eye while your were talking lol
Very fun, I love ur videos.
Your hair curled look very pretty.
How many stories high is your apartment? I would be dizzy all the time. Beautiful views though.
Okay I need a playlist of these songs😂

Your little project tote is perfect. Do you know where you found them?
Do you think you will move back to Texas eventually?
Thanks for the the video
Where did you get that white thing you wrapped your yarn tail of your sock on?
Where do I get a bag like the one with the socks in it?
And where do I find the patterns for your yarn cozies and bags
