Hello, just wanted to thank you for having spoken of the Blouse No1 on your channel because I cannot get away from this pattern since. I already used the shoulder shape twice, with short sleeves and coton yarn, with long tulip sleeves and cables. Love watching you.
Hi Olena. I love watching because of your enthusiasm. I think fingerless mitts/gloves make a great gift especially in this age of texting. Merry Christmas and Godt Nytt År
I don't do a lot of gift knitting other than for my kids and husband but when I do it is during the year and not for any specific date. Keeps it stress free. We also don't really do Christmas gifts anymore. Very freeing! Happy Holidays! Looking forward to following along with your 2025 knitting!
I always say to myself that I need to tone down the gift knitting next year after the last stress knitting before Christmas Eve, but I'm always back stress knitting the next year😅😂 I'd rather do knit gifts than buy gifts, but no gifts does sound nice! Happy Holidays❤️
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. I do plan on knitting next year. I have been busy quilting this year. Making one for myself, one for me grandson and one for a friend.
Thank you for this year of knitting with you, I'm looking forward to 2025. 🎉 As christmas gifts I've knit a couple of socks, some Sophie Shawls, a Slipover (without a pattern) and the most relevant: 3 Louisiana Sweaters in different sizes for my kids. At the moment I do the first sleeve of the melange sweater man. This will be the last christmas project and it will be the present for my husband. I thought about doing a christmas cast on, but I think I will just continue on an already started project for myself. But if I would have done it it would have been the Basic V from Minimi Knit Design. 😊 Perhaps it will be a new years cast on. Merry chirstmas!!!
I lovvee Hillesvag yarn! When I was living in Norway I got to visit their mill and it was a magical experience. :-) Right now I'm also speed knitting before Xmas, I'm making a Manitou pullover for my dad!
It's an amazing yarn to knit with! I LOVE IT❤️ I'm almost jealous you got to visit their mill. I hope I'll be able to one day! Good luck with your speed knitting!
God Jul og Godt Nyttår til deg og familien din. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Jeg er sikker på at du klarer å tømme kurven innen nyttårsaften. Neste år skal jeg strikke 14 eller 15 par sokker for julegaver, så blir å starte tidlig.
Your son’s Christmas sweater will be fine, I’m sure. It won’t be noticeable on and shouldn’t affect the fit. It’s gorgeous. I hope you have an amazing Christmas.
I hope so🤞🏻 3 stitches on 4mm needles shouldn't make much of a difference, and I think the fact that I didn't even notice when working the body or the sleeve is a good sign🤞🏻😅 Merry Christmas!
Hi Olina! I very much enjoyed watching this podcast. I am stress knitting the final pair of gloves for our Christmas. While watching this, I finished knitting the pair that was on my needles and I have one pair left. I'm getting tired of making fingers! But, this is the last thing to make! I do not have a Christmas day caston planned, but I do have a sock I started last month that I want to work on, they are Christmas colors.
Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you and your family. Hope 2025 is kind to you. Looking forward to seeing what you have planned for the new year. ❤
I don’t knit, but I want to learn how, I crochet and my Christmas “cast on” is going to be some little sweaters for the local NICU using some pastel yarn from my stash. My goal in the new year is a color work crochet sweater and to learn how to knit!
I asked for basically yarn and yarn store vouchers for my only gifts. 😅 I’m waiting impatiently for a huge order from Wool Warehouse to arrive to me in the USA with the wool for working up Sari Nordlund’s Marzipan sweater. I was watching Mejn Wolden’s channel and she wear that sweater often and I’m obsessed with it now. 😅❤ I’ve been ferociously knitting ribbed hats for quick gifts for the last two weeks and now I have a bag of hats family and friends can just pick through to choose their gifts.
Yarn or store vouchers so you can buy yarn are some of the best gifts🙈 The Marzipan Sweater looks so good!!! Knitting loads of hats and letting family choose their own is such a cool idea!
Thanks for your nice podcast once again :) The red color of your Christmas sweater fits you so great👍I had one 100g skein of Ask, trying to find project what to do with it, this yarn looks and feels so nice
Thank you! It's such a pretty color❤️ Ask is a great yarn to work with! Let me know if you find the perfect project, because I have more Ask I have no idea what to do with🙈
Your error on your son's red sweater will "never be noticed on a galloping horse" (or on an active little boy). It is beautiful and he will love it and look great in it! Merry Christmas!
I like that saying! And you're right! I had to actively search for it for quite a while to even notice it, so when a moving kid is wearing it no chance I'm spotting it😂 I hope he'll accept wearing it🤞🏻 Merry Christmas🎄
I just found you on TH-cam the other day and I have already watched so many of your past videos. I really like the feel of your videos. It feels like I am just sitting talking to an old friend, you’re great! What size did you make for your Sweater No. 20? Also, How many skeins of Alaska did you purchase? You have inspired me to knit myself a Sweater No. 20 and I really like the fit of yours so I’m hoping that I have ordered enough of the yarn 😊
I think you inspired me to NOT get into gift knitting 😂 Don't get me wrong, I do knit for my loved ones from time to time, but I always tell them " you will get something if I feel I have the capacity and the motivation" Knitting on a deadline stresses me out. Even the thought of choosing the people I'm able to knit for... 😮😅 Of course selfmade gifts are always the best and seeing the joy that it gives to others... but knitting is still my creative hobby and I want to knit what I'm passionate about and enjoy the process. Don't Stress yourself too much, Oline! People will understand and still be happy about a late gift ❤😊 Merry (relaxed) Christmas to everyone 🎄🎁 AND NOW WORK ON THE WEDDING DRESS!!!! 😂
I think I'm inspiring myself to not knit gifts😅😂 Too bad I'll forget all about the stress by next year😅 I, too, prefer gifting my knits more at random when I feel like it! Next year, I'm going to try to be better at remembering knitting is MY hobby, and it's supposed to be fun! But also I'd rather give handmade gifts than bought ones, so we'll see if I'm able to🙈 Merry Christmas🎄 (And I'll work on the wedding dress tomorrow! I promise! Just 2 more mittens to knit first😅)
You shouldn’t stress over your basket of shame weaving in ends. Work on your Christmas gifts first, you have the 26th to the 31st to finish up that basket.
Christmas gifts are definitely the priority! We give gifts on Christmas Eve, so I don't have time to not make them the priority😅 Hopefully "Romjula" will be calm and give me plenty of time to weave in ends and everything else I want to do❤️

Hi! Blouse no1 really is a pattern that gets stuck in your head😅🥰 Your knits sound awesome🤩

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Quilting has always been something I've wanted to get into!
Merry Christmas to you and your lovely family, and congratulations on all those ends! 😄❤🎄
Merry Christmas! I'm so happy I don't have all those loose ends looming over me anymore❤️
Thank you for this year of knitting with you, I'm looking forward to 2025. 🎉

Your sweater is amazing!!! Merry Christmas to you! Congratulations on working through your basket of shame…such a huge accomplishment.
Thank you!! Merry Christmas🎄 I'm so glad I won't have a basket of shame next year!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Olina and family!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you too🎄

Why don’t you do a count down to your wedding on your phone 🤔
@@moiragarner1253 I do have one! I just never check it😅
