Really cool to hear you shout out Eweknit. They're my local fibre arts shop, I love them dearly. Looking forward to checking out the new book of patterns! 🥰
The colours of your tee are perfect together! I completely relate to using a different gauge so I'll keep that in mind if I get the tolsta pattern, as I don't think i'd like such a big gauge. Beautiful knits as always!
I have just tested the Mala Tank by Anna from the Bluebird Box. It’s a lovely size inclusive sleeveless tank with pretty lace detail. It will be released in May. A good option for you to research for your upcoming video. Thanks for a great episode.
I love marled and tweed yarns. Planning on knitting a poncho but with ocean colors and color work with sea shells. Haven't thought it through yet all the way. Basic pattern make it my own 😊. Love your inspiration. 💕
Your Tolsta Tee looks absolutely stunning! I have been wanting to make this as soon as the pattern is released, but you inspired me to try marling yarns for the first time in a garment! Thank you for the inspiration, I can't wait to see how it'll turn out :)
I enjoyed your video as always! I want to knit a top for the first time, and I have not much experience with garments. What patter would you recommend for a beginner? I'm looking for a sleeveless top, and I think I have similar measurements as you 😊
This is a great question! I think the drinks on the patio crop is a good option as it’s knit in worsted weight yarn. My friend Rachel from night Sky knitting has made some of these!
I knit headbands/Earwarmers (Mirella Moments patterns) with leftover cotton and linen yarns because I wear them when washing my face or in the shower if I’m not washing my hair!
If you are looking for some scrappy ideas for spring and summer yarns, I think beach bags or market bags are really fun. Could be for yourself or gifts!
I’ve recently knit two samples of the FORTH HAT by isolda Teague, which is a top down construction recipe that works for all sort of different gauges. I loved making these because it’s so customisable, and the shaping at the top of the head works super well for my head shape. Fingers crossed that the weekend hat hits your perfect formula, but if not, maybe the forth hat would be worth looking into ☺️
Thank you!! I think the tolsta it’s edging a bit more toward intermediate knitting as the short rows are done simultaneously with the raglan increases which I still find a bit challenging to keep my attention focused to. This is in contrast to a raglan without short row shaping. I’d definitely suggest that someone have at least practiced the increase and short rows separately on a swatch first!
I just discovered you today. I crochet more than I knit but I definitely will watch more of you.
Welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed the content 😄
The 'Look at my holes' tee looks so great! Makes me wanna knit one for myself for some music festivals during summer :)
It would be such a good festival fit! Especially if you went really long!

Your Tolsta Tee is so pretty! I'm considering making one as my first knit garmet... 🤔
It would be a perfect first garment!
Great tips for marling! Your Tolsta tee looks so good.
I'm really into marling too. Your living room is so spacious and elegantly inviting ! ❤
I love a spicy mid-project block - more info always helps my knitting :) looking forward to the outfit video and all your other plans!

Ohohohh! What a tee! Seen alot about Creabea’s Tolsta tee, but now I want to be off gauge too 😂😍
There’s a fingering weight version now too for tolsta love yours
I'm so excited for that tee pattern release! Yours looks super nice and I'm thinking about doing a similar one
Can’t recommend a marl enough! Such a good way to use really thin summer fibers!
Also if I’m working with like 100% alpaca or another fiber that grows a ton, I always do a spicy mid project block on the body or the sleeves or both!

So worthwhile!!
Your tee looks gorgeous!
Love the tshirt. The bottom colour looks like intentional colour blocking. It looks great.
That’s how I’m choosing to think about it! Thank you

@@highfiberknits Thank you! I'm looking at it right now on ravelry and I love how it looks! This is a great option for me to try.

Such a good use of those scraps!

Ah also, i love the finished look of your tolsta tee and your ideas of marling variegated yarns! Your channel is such a source of inspiration ☺️
Thank you for your kind comment! I’ve also been thinking I might try a musselburough later this year for a different look!
I use disposable “socks” (like the ones you use to try on shoes at the store) to keep those tricky fibers in their ball.
That is SO brilliant!!
You can hold it double by holding the outer end with the inner end of the yarn of one ball. That way it won’t tangle 😊
Have you tried the Bankhead hat ?
Beautiful vlog as always Emily. The Tolsta looks great. Would you recommend it for a beginner knitter?
