I really love these videos Mel! In the midst of the new pattern hype and chronic castonitis, its sometimes too easy to forget that knits are meant to be used.
To share time with you is not only inspiring, it is a celebration in human ingenuity and commitment to purpose. Bravo. And both of these feed ones spirit. Thank you
Great reviews! I love this format, this is so useful in a knitting world of too often just overmaking and no reflection around the after…the friday tee has been on my wish list for a long time! I am thinking of making it in a more summery material…will see… thank you 🌼 and the top you are wearing is gorgoeus the color suits you so well!
Your pieces are stunning. I would make all three based on your review. I may make a friday tee soon. I definitely see value in a fingering wool tee for fall/winter/spring.
I really enjoyed this episode - as I do all of your episodes, especially your review episodes. Question: What sweater pattern are you wearing? You mentioned that it is mohair - what brand of mohair did you use? It also looks great on you!
Thanks so much for watching! I am wearing the "Dare to Mohair Top" by Thorson Knits. Yarn is Hobbii Friends Kid Silk in the colour Cognac (gifted). I knit mine with more positive ease than recommended to achieve a boxy look. I have a Hobbii review video with more details about the yarn and top.

Hi Mel, I just came across your channel. I really like this video, but there's certain times where you speak quite quietly and it's difficult to hear you. Just a note for future videos :)
Hi, there are 3 garments reviewed (they appear in the video thumbnail). In the description you'll find the timestamps for all 3. Feel free to skip to the garment(s) that interest you the most.
Hi, sorry the audio isn't working for you - any settings you can check? Perhaps captions may help? I haven't had anyone else comment regarding the audio.
I like your style and the projects you choose. However, in my opinion, the videos are too long and the content has been stretched unnecessarily long. This video would benefit from editing. For example, everything essential and even some extra would have fit in 15 minutes. Otherwise good job!

So true! I have to consistently ask myself "Do I like this or is it just the hype?"
Thanks for watching!

I love the wrap cardigan. It looks perfect for wearing over dresses.

Lovely detailed episode, thank you.
Love this video concept! The Levitate Wrap looks so cute on you!
Thank you!

Wrap cardigan comes in sizes xs to 4xl and states it should have 30-35 cm of positive ease ❤
Oh my goodness you spent a lot of time reviewing the garment shaver…your red sweater on you looks lovely.

Hi I’m curious how did you handle the stripes in the Friday tee? Did you carry the color or cut? Thanks, I love these reviews
Hi! I used the jogless stripe method and carried both colours. It was really nice to not have to weave in so many ends!
Hey! whats the sweater you are wearing in this video? the color is just wow! :)
Thanks!

Hi - you mentioned the shaver from Amazon, but I don't see the link. Could you add it? Thanks! 😊
Hi, sorry I forgot that one! Should be there now at the bottom of the description box. 😀

Thanks for letting me know! I've bought a new mic so future ones should sound better 🤞

Tried your video, unfortunately I couldn't hear you. :-(
