    I’m on sensory overload from your beautiful knits. That tee, yum! It’s fun seeing you and Sean enjoy your boys, and they seem like wonderful kids. Thanks for another wonderful podcast Amanda.

    I LOVE your podcast despite(?) because of(?) the LIFE happening around you. You are amazing, hon. And normal is way overrated.

      Thank you so much! I completely agree. Why be normal when unique is an option?? :) :)

      Summer is wide open for me as a teacher so lots of knitting gets done! :)

    Congratulations to the winners!!! Amanda, your tee is gorgeous!! I can’t believe how fast you have knit this one. I didn’t think I could participate this year in PigSkinParty but I think I’m going to go sign up and get added to a group. I’m on book 24 of so far 24 of Louisiana Longshot (this is the first one and they all have cute quirky names after) by Jana DeLeon. I think you will like them. Also just started a series by Janet Evanovich. The first one is called One for the money and it is called the Stephanie Plum series (she’s the main character). Anyway, loving them.Congratulations on getting two sons!! I’m sure they are going to be blessed beyond measure with having you and Sean as their US parents. Sounds like you are getting sick again so take care of yourself, drink lots of tea and vitamin boosters!

      I have heard of the Evanovich series but never read it. I will check her out! Thank you so much for your kind words!

      Thank you so much!! I am excited with the progress I have made this year while working. It's been fun sitting and knitting in the evening, while watching the boys play XBox and chatting with them about their day.

    Oh my, your Vibes Tee is absolutely wonderful! You deserve to be proud of this project. 👏 I really like Sean’s socks and your knitting is beautiful - such even stitches. I’m Team 1 for my rookie year in Pigskin Party ‘23. For the umpteenth time, I’m thrilled to win the birthday giveaway and greatly appreciate your generosity! Thank you! 😊

    The socks for Sean turned out great. Love the scarf idea for the boys. Hopefully you aren't coming down with the newest crud going around. It's not debilitating, but an annoyance I've been fighting for 2 weeks now. I will be a Westknits spectator this year. I pulled last year's from hibernation and am half way through Clue 3. It is the most intense project I've ever done. I just want it done, though I really like it.😅

    • @DogMomKnits
      @DogMomKnits  ปีที่แล้ว

      I couldn't finish Twists and Turns - I had to stop. Clue 1 was so much and as the other clues came out, I wasn't a big enough fan to persevere. So far I am a fan of Geogradient. :)

    Another fun episode 😁 (I'm working my way backwards while catching up 😂)
    Your vibes tee js just so fun! I've only knit one of Tif's patterns, her Strata pullover, but I've knit it twice already (one for me and one for my sister) and I'm actually knitting a 3rd now! Eventually I'll have to check out some of her other patterns!

    • @DogMomKnits
      @DogMomKnits  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I definitely want to knit another of her patterns. It's been great!

    Your Vibes Tee looks fantastic! I added that pattern to my favorites immediately.
    My brain is usually sluggish in the morning, and especially so if I’m talking to a camera. 😂 Camera turns on, brain turns off. I probably could have made a Vlogmas blooper reel of me asking, “What did I just say?” Thank you for keeping it real! I appreciate you. ❤
