    I’ve been enjoying your podcasts- the sweaters you’ve knit are beautiful! So far, I’ve only knit two sweaters- love note and Nuuk. I’ve been thinking about the no frills sweater for a little while as I’ve heard other podcasters speak well of this pattern too. So no frills is my choice. Thanks for this opportunity for a give-away!

    Hi Francesca from New York! What a sweet channel - and thanks so much for the inspiration..
    My personal favorite (it's SO hard to choose!!) would be the CLAUDIA GLOVES - so pretty. I just found you and will happily watch your earlier shows ~~~~~~~!

  • @susannehockert9116
    @susannehockert9116 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've knitted since I was a child, but I'm still learning so many new things. I have to say the way you talked about the cumulus tee made me really want to try it, i-cord I haven't done ever. I love knitting lace and your whitmoor is gorgeous. I just found Ami Lowden's patterns and I can't wait for more. ❤️

    • @AnItalianKnitter
      @AnItalianKnitter  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I must say that those i-cords at the "edges" of the Cumulus Tee are quite boring to knit honestly 😅 Listening to a knitting podcast while doing that saved my sanity hehe
      I'm with you regarding Ami Lowden's patterns. They look both intricate and classic at the same time. I love that! Happy knitting, Susanne

  • @bennyknit

      Hello Amanda! I sometimes feel I was a little bit more adventurous with my knitting, but on the other hand I truly love that I get so much wear out of the garment I knit. I don't think it would be the same if I did lots of cable patterns or very punchy colors.
      Happy knitting and thank you for your support

      Hello Mel! It's exciting to see you here. I enjoy your videos and love your vibe.
      I would definitely recommend the Whitmoor sweater: it's very addicting and I think the final result looks modern enough and doesn't have that, ehm, vintage-y look that some lace patterns have 😅
      Hope you're doing very well and I'm sending you good thoughts re: the last stretch of your pregnancy!

Possibly so inspiring I can't decide on one pattern ^^ I love the Whitmoor Sweater, I do have the cardigan version and I think the sweater will be a lot more agreeable to knit. But the Cumulus Tee is also beautiful and so wearable! Definitely try out the Pure Silk, the yarn is amazing. Thanks for your generosity and greetings from Germany :D

      @@AnItalianKnitter I've knitted two camisoles so far and used both times a lot less than two skeins ☺️ and I think we have roughly the same size.
      I have knitted the Whitmoor Cardigan last fall! Super pretty but it was a pain to knit the body, especially with the buttons bands 😔 but maybe a day after I've watched your episode, a friend gifted me the sweater pattern and it's lovely! I did add some short rows in the back, and while it may improve the fit a bit, I think the look is nicer when the lace begins directly after the ribbing.

      @@princiknitting Your comment about the two skeins is actually super helpful right now! 🙏 I was debating if I had to order three just in case. What happens is that some camisoles or tops in general come very cropped and I don’t love that. So sometimes I buy an extra ball to make sure the length is right for me, so a bit longer. Hopefully two balls are good enough for a regular length camisole. I plan to finally knit the “famous” Camisole No. 4! I’ve been eyeing that one for a long while.

    I really love all of the sweaters you have made, though I could not wear some of them. I would choose #5 the Cumulus Tee by PetiteKnit. Congratulations on your subscriber milestone. It is great that someone who is not overly active on social media can still be found and have many people follow them. It just means that you are putting up interesting content and that we enjoy your presentation. Thank you for sharing.

    Just found your channel. You are a delight to watch. I do hope you will start to do cables, they are simple to do. I love your Whitmore, the colour and texture looks great on you. I see so many people knitting that and I’ve become hooked on doing it too. Fingers crossed I might get the pattern soon❤️

    • @AnItalianKnitter
      @AnItalianKnitter  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Hazel, I don't have any real plans for cables. I find them a little intimidating and I foresee they might be a little slow to knit? Not sure. Do you have any patterns you would recommend as first cable patterns?
      If you can, you should totally go for the Whitmoor sweater. I found it so addicting. I couldn't put it down until I finished the lace yoke! I also really like the look of the final object.
      Happy knitting and thank you for your support

I actually commented on another podcast that although it's great to receive yarn and goodies, I so much prefer digital books or patterns, afterall I do enjoy knitting and an extra pattern is never too much ;) I go for the Choice #6 - Leafinity Top by Melanie Reinert, I "blame" Martina as well haha!
    All the best! :) Hi from Portugal!

    • @AnItalianKnitter
      @AnItalianKnitter  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I must say I'm not a fan of button bands either, especially because of picking up stitches, which sometimes doesn't turn out as pretty and smooth as I'd like hehe
      Either way, I hope you'll get to knit one of the Whitmoor garments at some point. The lace is so pretty and addicting! Happy knitting and thanks for stopping by

    I just recently found you and am enjoying your podcast! I’ve been wanting to try the No Frills Sweater for awhile. I’m interested in your comparison between the No Frills and the Cozy Classic Raglan since you’ve knit both. Thanks!

    • @AnItalianKnitter
      @AnItalianKnitter  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for your message and your support, Elizabeth.
      I'm going to share some thoughts in my next episode, but so far I think the two patterns are pretty comparable. The Cozy Classic Raglan is more fitted (for example the sleeves are a bit tighter, which I don't know if they're my favorite honestly) but I like that the gauge is a bit looser (18 sts/10 cm instead of 21 sts/10 cm) so I think it's quite spring-appropriate.
      Happy knitting in the meantime!
