Thank you both so much again for your visit and for highlighting my little shop! I'm still glowing from such a fun day, and I'm just so thrilled my yarns made it into your blanket! 💜 I hope you enjoyed your trip to Birmingham, and I'm glad you made it to our Bucee's, haha!
Love the new format! Looking forward to when you are back in Southern California. I missed you when you were at Hands On Knitting Center in Redlands where I live.
That camping ground looks so nice Natalie even though it looks very cold! Toaster is obviously warm and cosy snoring away in your van. Loving these tours around different places and also loving your beautiful cowl! Take care x
You could embroider over the orange and pink with a black, or burgundy, in the less contrast instant, to make the sheep detail stand out ...by the way that is so pretty ❤🧶💫 safe travels
We stopped at that Buc-ee's 3 weeks ago. It was our first time, and it was crazy but fun! Next time, I hope we are not going by at noon on a Saturday. I was at 4 Purls last week the day before your tour video was posted. I will definitely be going back. I really enjoyed hearing about the shop and Emma's yarn.
Looking forward to your video from paper crane yarns- it’s so much fun that you give us an opportunity to see all these shops we would never know about! Thanks!
Thank you!! If you’re new to colorwork, I’d give it a try, but pick only two color charts and the single-sided (shorter) cowl. It’s a great way to practice!
@@KnittyNatty I went to Portland last year. With my mom so her new pack coming out tomorrow has me intrigued. But I like your suggestion to start small!!
I hope your travels keep you in the southern third of the country during the winter! I moved cross country in 2015 and had to “slide across the ice “ in Kansas in March!
I don’t know if you’ll make it to the Pacific Northwest around the first weekend of March, but the Rose City Yarn Crawl is the first weekend and Ritual Dyes has a local shop and we have a lot of local hand dyers in the area! 27:25
Hey Toaster! 🐾🐾 For me, this style of shorter LiS podcast is better. Rarely can I get through the hour+ ones uninterrupted. My favorites are the Yarn Shops and dye studio tours. 👏
I’m so glad you like this format! I’m sure there will still be longer ones in occasion, but we’re aiming for around 45 minutes give or take right now ☺️
I am so excited that you will be coming to The Modern Skein. I put it in my calendar. Tip: If you are into cheese, there is a great Amish cheese shop called Slice of Amish next to the yarn shop.
In my mind I see one end of the cowl folded inside and attached to the other (kinda like the Musselburgh) so the cowl would be double, but still have the pattern remain oriented correctly. Not sure if I’m explaining it well or if that is what you meant to begin with…lol.
I really love the Clover Amours! Ergonomic handles and the hook head I prefer. Everyone has their own preferences though so definitely try them individually first. If you like them, the set is usually at the lowest cost on Amazon: amzn.to/492TsaZ
i might have missed in from a previous episode, but is the questions section still happening this year? i really enjoyed this section and learned a lot from hearing other people's questions. if you're taking a break from it, i hope it can come back at some point in the future!
I’m taking a break from this section for now, but I’m happy to answer questions still in the comments! I’m also thinking about doing an occasional questions only video. There is a good chance that this segment comes back in the future too!
Natalie is there any possibility that Briana from Little Wolf Knits would dye a 4th of July skein very close to the world champ skein? I love it so much with the red white blue and a touch of gold.
So here’s the ticket, the back of your cards show what the chart is, mine don’t. All 24 of my cards show what I think might be a sheep. They are absolutely identical and i can’t reach the designer. Emails go unanswered.
@@KnittyNatty I’ll try thank you. It just seems bizarre that the back of the cards are all identical. Are yours showing the design? I caught just a glimpse of yours and it seemed so. I have no desire to make a cowl, I can’t wear them but I wanted to incorporate the patterns in a sweater or socks or something. That was my main reason for purchasing the doodles.

Thank YOU! We had so much fun that day! I can’t wait to share your shop tour in a few weeks ☺️
Hello from my new home in Swansea, Illinois. Now comes the hard part of unpacking and putting everything away!
Love the new format! Looking forward to when you are back in Southern California. I missed you when you were at Hands On Knitting Center in Redlands where I live.
That camping ground looks so nice Natalie even though it looks very cold! Toaster is obviously warm and cosy snoring away in your van. Loving these tours around different places and also loving your beautiful cowl! Take care x
We love hearing Toaster snore. No need to apologize
Hehehe
13:53 Thank you for normalizing “drop and pick up” knitting during colorwork!🙌🏾🙌🏾🥰
Nothing wrong with that!
Oh my gosh this is just to funny. I also was working on socks and also made my heel too big.
I must admit I was worrying about you guys in the cold weather.
You could embroider over the orange and pink with a black, or burgundy, in the less contrast instant, to make the sheep detail stand out ...by the way that is so pretty ❤🧶💫 safe travels
Great idea!
I'm sorry to miss you so close to Birmingham, but I didn't know there was a yarn store in Calera, so thank you for featuring it!
It’s a great one too! We hoped to go to the yarn store in Birmingham as well but it was closed the days we had free to visit. Next time!

Toaster intently looking out the window behind you is SO CUTE!!
Love the intro graphics. Very cool. Love these episodes. Stay safe.🧶🧶🧶marker is a hostess choc cupcake.🧁🧁🧁
Thanks!! I love what Kent did ☺️
I like the 2 little knomes on top.... You and Kent when you are in your 90's... still traveling around enjoying the fiber community.
Looking forward to your video from paper crane yarns- it’s so much fun that you give us an opportunity to see all these shops we would never know about! Thanks!
I love the new intro music 🩷
Thank you!
Seems like you could be using the hexie project as a blanket (and of course keep adding to it) and then it wouldn’t be in the WIP cabinet. 😉
That's a great idea!
I just have to say I got anxiety just at the mention of an escape room. 😂Trying to put it out of my mind! 🤤
That’s the Hostess cupcake! 😂
Ahhh thank you hahaha
@@KnittyNatty it’s actually my second favorite behind the Swiss cake roll 😋😋
Very pleasurable to watch as always
The progress keeper on Kent’s sock is a Hostess Cupcake. 😂😂😊
Your doodle cowl is so cool. It inspires me to try but it looks hard. 😅
Thank you!! If you’re new to colorwork, I’d give it a try, but pick only two color charts and the single-sided (shorter) cowl. It’s a great way to practice!
@@KnittyNatty I went to Portland last year. With my mom so her new pack coming out tomorrow has me intrigued. But I like your suggestion to start small!!
Awesome vlog as always! Have a great time. Toaster is adorable napping! Love your cowl and Kent's socks and blanket. Such a cute tote with the van!!
I hope your travels keep you in the southern third of the country during the winter! I moved cross country in 2015 and had to “slide across the ice “ in Kansas in March!

We will be there for the Yarn crawl!
Love your cowl, you are so talented, beautiful work!!!
Aww thank you! That’s very kind of you to say
Love the new flow of your podcast.
Thank you!
Thanks again Natalie and Kent. Always fun to watch and knit while spending time with you. Question? Will Kent ever learn to knit?

I am loving the new sections❤❤❤❤
Yay!! I’m so happy!
Hi Natalie your colour work cowl is gorgeous 😊😊 , what a pretty camp-site Kaye x
I am so excited that you will be coming to The Modern Skein. I put it in my calendar. Tip: If you are into cheese, there is a great Amish cheese shop called Slice of Amish next to the yarn shop.
Natalie the projects are beautiful. I was wondering where you got that darning needle you showed. I had one like it a long time ago but have lost it..
your van is super cool 😀
Thank you!

Great video. Do you have a favorite brand of crochet hooks that you prefer? Love the Hexie blanket.

@@KnittyNatty no worries! I’m enjoying seeing your travel updates too!
I need to buy those cards, searching...
Jamie sells them on her website! I’ve also seen them in some yarn stores.

Natalie is there any possibility that Briana from Little Wolf Knits would dye a 4th of July skein very close to the world champ skein? I love it so much with the red white blue and a touch of gold.
The Rhinebeck cowl is so beautiful so far!!wow!!
Is it something you are making to wear to Rhinebeck?
Thank you! Honestly I haven’t thought that far. I’ll probably wear it now and again at Rhinebeck!
Would you have a link for where your sock calculator can be found?
I do! Right now it’s only available through my Perfect Fit Sock course: loveinstitches.mykajabi.com/perfectfitsocks-registration
Could you add a little duplicate stitch of higher contrast on the face of the sheep? It’s too cute of a motif not to see their little faces😊
That’s a good idea!
So here’s the ticket, the back of your cards show what the chart is, mine don’t. All 24 of my cards show what I think might be a sheep. They are absolutely identical and i can’t reach the designer. Emails go unanswered.
Oh! That doesn’t seem right at all. Jamie is really sweet and will definitely right it for you. Are you using pnwknitdesign@gmail.com?
@@KnittyNatty I’ll try thank you. It just seems bizarre that the back of the cards are all identical. Are yours showing the design? I caught just a glimpse of yours and it seemed so.

So excited that you guys decided to go to the modern skein! I’m going to try my best to be there :-)
Hooray! Can’t wait to see you!
