    Yes, sign me up for your 24/7 knitting. I could watch you all day. You make me laugh so much and I love your knits. I’m working on a Rowan knitalong festive blanket. It’s made in squares using Rowan felted tweed. My first knitalong and so enjoyable. Keeping my stress at bay during a long long wait for moving house and my yarn is packed. Can’t wait to be released from boxes. X

    Your Pressed Flowers Shawl is FANTASTIC! I love everything that you make, but it steals the show. Wow! As for the bumpy ride recently, hopefully next week will be smoother for you ;) Thank you for taking the time to make videos for Patreon and for TH-cam even though you have to deal with bots, have a family & are a business owner. You are one talented lady & quite inspiring! Have fun with the gravel haha and enjoy the weekend 🥰

    It's so much fun when you are giggly from lack of sleep + caffeine. I always like to be relaxed without distractions so I don't miss anything. Your finished objects always look way better than the items one can get in a store. I endeavour to get to a place with my knitting where I can see an item in a pattern or in my head and start making it to completion. Being newer to this phase of my knitting journey has allowed me to stay monogamous, but I know that will change soon. I see my personal basket of UFOs somewhere in my future. 😯Thank you for sharing your beautiful makes with us, Jana. ❤

    Hi Jana. I finished three items lately; one I told you about, and it is the garter blanket for my granddaughter in stripes of lavender and white that I finished in three weeks working on it continually, and my granddaughter took it to the University where she left to go to last Friday. It turned out beautifully. She arrived at the University and she did a Face Time with me; and she showed me the blanket on her bed. It is rewarding to me that she likes it and will use it. I also finished two shawls in the pattern by the name of Simone Shawl that I knitted another one that came in a kit in the Rios Lettuce color. The new shawls are beautiful, one in a swirl of green and blue colors, and the drape is nice and the other one is in different grey colors and different burgundy colors. I like how both of them came out. They are for me when the weather gets colder. I a working on a blanket now in multiple colors that I started before. I like the top you knitted. The colors look good on you. Knitting is fun, and I enjoy doing it and creating knits. I wish you and your family all the best. Take Care. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

    I have thought about making
    the pressed flowers. Right now I am knitting the Snowy Forest sweater. I am loving it and find it hard to put down. I love hearing the joy in your voice and words about your new shawl, because this is exactly the way I feel about my sweater. Wishing you and your family a great and healthy week.

    • @FinnishKnittingStories

    The darker background in your pressed flowers really does make a difference. To me, I think of chocolate covered candies. t is lovely and I can see why you want to work on it and enjoy the process. Maybe the process will help you relax and level out from the rest of the daily stress. Could we have a STITCH stream? The idea made me laugh.

    I am so lucky today, it's a bit smoky here in the US inland NW! But, it's finally cooler and since I can't go outside I have a full day of knitting and knitting podcasts to luxuriate with! So happy to see yours this morning, it's always at the top of my watch list❤.

    Thanks for another fun video. I love your Anker Sweater. I wouldn't have thought to try to knit Anker from unspun yarn. You've given me lots of new inspiration! I have not knit any of the pressed flowers series. I think it looks wonderful, but I can't imagine it on me. I need to hire someone to rescue my yard/garden. So many rocks in our soil, I can hardly plant anything.

      I think I wouldn't knit it with solid yarn. Handspun is just so much fun! 😄❤️

    Yes the pressed flower cards, pullover and shawl are on my dream knit list as well. I just started spinning so I’m hoping to spin my yarn as well. So it may be a moment.

    Your Seela looks so soft & cozy; I understand why you love it. And I love the pressed flowers patterns. I think I'll be making a cardigan of it; I think my LYS is making some version for the fall KAL. I also have the yarn for Caitlin Hunter's Alpine Bloom, but have been working on my Maire dress while recovering from hip replacement 10 days ago; heavy opioids aren't conducive to much more than stockinette 😄 However, I need to wind more yarn & its upstairs, but my husband is in Maui doing relief work. I'm not confident in navigating stairs with no one to call emergency if I fall, so now I'm shifting to work more on Casapinka's Sharon on The Trail MKAL. Need to finish it because I need the needles for a cotton tank, and for the Aloine Bloom. Actually, I need to invest in more needle tops & cables than the basic Chiagoo set! I look forward to seeing the progress on your landscape project, and your WIPs. Have a good week.

      Also, I was able to make myself a BIG breakfast of sugar-free/dairy-free Blueberry pancakes, bacon, scrambled eggs, mixed berries, and ☕️. That was impossible for the past couple years with my bad hip & fatigue from long-haul Lyme disease! Having a visit with you along with breakfast was the best way to start the day!

    Love your Pressed Flowers. ( & your podcasts!!) I knit the PF Cowl & it has been great for winter in New Zealand. I’d like to do the sweater & maybe a little one using the same stitches for my granddaughter.

    Your Anker's Sweater looks so nice. You are inspired me to do the same with my Nutiden. I have to admit that I'm struggling knitting with Nutiden as the roving breaks for me ALL THE TIME.

      Are you a tight knitter? I'm a loose knitter, so it's easy for me not to pull on the yarn. It is very fragile. If you're going to hold it double for your project, you could try winding it in a ball holding both strands together. Make a ready double-standed ball. It will make it a bit stronger and easier to manage.

    Good episode Janna, Love your new sweater, and ptessed flowers. I have just finished a cotton all over lace knit. A very modest lace. Pattern Rico 155, essentials cotton DK. Thought it would be easy, but I managed to knit one front about 1cm shorter than the other. Aarghh..

    I have been looking at the pressed flowers cardigan also. It looks like it would be fun to knit. Your shawl is looking great. I love the hand spun! That dark coffee colour is fab. I am currently knitting a dragonflies sweater byJoji Jocatelli and the Lento sweater. I might have spelled Joji’s name wrong… but I have two more sweater I want to knit in mind as well and now you have reminded me of the pressed flowers lol. I have so many things I want to knit.

    I love your pressed flowers! I have the pattern but have yet to knit it…I think I have my yarns in mind and am glad to hear you aren’t using dk because the yarns I’d like to use are fingering and I was worried it wouldn’t work. Thanks for the inspiration! ❤

    • @FinnishKnittingStories
      @FinnishKnittingStories  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh, it totally works, it just won't be as big as in the pattern, but you could add extra flower repeats if needed. That's the best bit about the shawls, you don't need to think about the gauge that much. 😊❤️

    You are such a personality! I so enjoy your vlogs, and I love ALL of your projects. I’m going to go right to ravellry and order a pressed flowers pattern. I’ve treated myself to some spincycle so I may use that for the flower but will need to order the contrasting colour-I don’t really have a stash. I’m looking forward to winter here in Calgary.

    I haven’t knit any of the pressed flowers but I love your colour combination. It’s going to look amazing when it’s finished. I would definitely come and watch a live stream if ever you did one. I actually do Gaming streams over on Twitch under a different username and I love it. I don’t earn anything from it but I love chatting and meeting like minded people. I’ve not done knitting ones yet though 😅
