This has quickly become my favorite knitting podcast. I love your dynamic, the pacing, your enthusiasm, and your taste in patterns. So excited to see a new episode!
So happy to see another upload! I love learning about Australian yarn and I love your enthusiasm. Jacob's reaction for his gift is exactly what you hope for in a gift knit. And it's gorgeous!
Discovered your channel last week and I started watching your older podcasts since I absolutely love the energy you two bring! Seeing all of your FO’s actually inspired me to bring out one of my WIP’s that’s been in timeout for the past two months. Halfway through sleeve island and should be ready to cast off in a week or so! -Ky
Oh wow, two Australian gals! Your rapport and vibe is so great. You are both so cute too. Totally loved this video and my husband and I are watching Mrs Maisel right now. I made the Petite Knit Novice Slipover in Double Sunday and Isager Mohair Silk in a similar brown and it has the same gorgeous drape and marle. Subscribed.
One of the girls in my craft group was contemplating knitting a jumper for her boyfriend. I told her about the sweater curse but also shared this video because you talk about the reverse sweater curse. 😂
How will a significant other be able to prove themselves as knitworthy if we are eternally beholden to unfounded cautionary tales. Lean into the reverse :P
Your boyfriend's jumper turned out amazing Paige!! Really wonderful to see when someone appreciates the work involved and becomes a knit worthy person. Sarah, I too have been looking for larger or just men sizes sock blockers. I watched you video where you made some but I have the KnitPro Aqua Sock Blockers Large (EU Sizes 41+) on order. So they are possible to find. I hope it does the job on my hubby sized socks.
I love how excited Jacob was for his sweater and that he is now checking every project in hopes it’s fo him! A Knitworthy King! And both of your slipovers look great. I need more!
It's coming back into the sort of weather for slipovers here again, and thinking it's time for some more. Jacob is the living antidote/contradiction to the sweater curse 😁
I recently ran across your channel and I’m really enjoying it. That Noro Silk Solo is my dream. I have an entire bin of Noro older yarn kureyon, silk garden, and silk garden lite. But the color ways are so bright. That was the style 20+ years ago when I bought it. Maybe if I mix it with alpaca silk or something like that. Idk. I can’t justify buying any yarn because I have an entire loft filled with it. Yikes.
Ugh I know the feeling. There's so much yarn I want to get but had a lot of acquisitions latley which is starting to weigh on my consciousness. I remember a lot of that Noro yarn when I was working in a yarn shop ~15 years ago, lots of clashing brights. I recon a mohair or an alpacca would tone it all down a bit, pull the whole thing a bit more towards a single colour perhaps. Also adds fluffiness which is always a good thing :)
Hi from Pennsylvania, USA! So much fun! I’ve been wanting to make a zipper sweater for so long and am so intimidated. Maybe I’ll take the plunge! Love your podcast….I’ve been binging and I’ll be so sad when I have to wait for more than 2 hours for another episode 😂 Hope you stick around for a long long time!!!
I think like all knitting things, the zipper is not as hard as it initially seems. I think you'll surprise yourself. And there's some good tutorials out there if you get stuck 🥰
Hi from rainy and autumnal UK. I’m so happy that TH-cam algorithm send me your video. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it and I look forward to your future videos. I’m definitely your new subscriber.
Oh another recommendation for hand cream, because I have the same issue where I find knitting really drying and any amount of yarn catching on my hands drives me bonkers : o'keeffes working hands! Get it in the tub, not the tube. A tiny bit goes a long way, and I love that it doesn't leave any residue on my hands the way some of the more scented or bougie products do
Was SO excited to see your next podcast was up! I bust out laughing with Jacob’s little side video modeling the zip sweater! So glad he likes it. 😂 (You guys are too cute together, Paige!) Also, it was ironic that both of you (Sarah & Paige) were wearing sweater vests today - I just finished a vest last weekend & was inspired to knit it after watching your podcast! Another wonderful episode! Keep ‘em coming! 👍👍
I’ve just finished the Stockholm Slipover’v’ neck and round neck in Rowan felted tweed and love them both. Morris and Son’s is my local yarn shop,love it.
First time watching your podcast, so great to discover more Melbourne knitters podcasting (almost tempted to give podcasting a go!). I really loved seeing your knits and enthusiasm for all the petiteknit patterns. Am going to go back and watch your earlier episodes
Thanks for the video, totally cheered me up when I needed it 😊 Am also feeling very tempted to knit a zipper sweater for everyone in my family! 🤔 a bit much maybe! 😅
I'm glad :) that's the power of knitting. I think a zipper squad would ultimate goals, and given it's quite a buky yarn with lots of stockinette it flies. I recon start with one for yourself and see how you go (cos priorities are self sureley)...
Hi there just found your channel! How fun! I wanted to recommend a hand lotion. I’m from the USA but the company is Australian! The company is called “Australian Scent”. The owners are Eddie and Meghan and they were living in the US but have moved back to Australia :(. Though, we can still get their products. They are organic, clean, all natural- no parabens, nothing bad!!:)
First time watching and I really enjoyed your video, so much inspiration! I will go back and watch your other episodes. I wanted to ask what is the colour of the Noro silk garden solo yarn you are using for your sweater and the pattern you are knitting. Thank you!
Here’s two more for you to try both are health and beauty Dead Sea minerals extra rich avocado cream the second is their powerful olive oil and honey cream they have a website but these two creams are amazing
I went searching back in the archives for this after watching the 2023 recap video - I’m considering knitting the Zipper Sweater Man in the knitting for Olive heavy merino. Any idea how many skeins you needed for the size S? Shipping to NZ to hoping not to order too little or too many!
Great life choice! Hmm I'll check with Paige, not sure what size she did but think she ended up with a ball left over from whatever size she estimated. Better to err on the side of caution cos sourcing more is a bit of a nightmare, but stay tuned...
This has quickly become my favorite knitting podcast. I love your dynamic, the pacing, your enthusiasm, and your taste in patterns. So excited to see a new episode!
Hello! I'm so glad, thanks so much :D
Paige's bf reactions are just too cute!!! Loving the two slipovers too.
Haha thanks. Yep he's definitely very knit-worthy....

Yep he's certainly very knit-worthy

My Noro Silk Garden bloomed and softened up beautifully once I blocked it. Your Zipper Sweater is going to be gorgeous.
Mmm I think seeing it blocked might just tip me over to getting some as well. What did you make with yours?
@@twopurlsinapod I made the PetiteKnit Terrazzo sweater with the Noro Silk Garden Solo plus a strand of mohair.
@@KnitsinMotion mmm sounds luxe

Both slipcovers are great. Kind of glad slipcovers made a come back.
Thanks 😊 I definitely am too.
Love your humour and your knits! ❤
Haha thanks so much 🥰
Love the relaxed chatty vibe of your video. Most enjoyable and I will need to binge watch your other videos now 😊

Great video, keep them coming! They brighten my day and inspire me to try new knits. Thank you
Thank you so much, I’m so glad 🙂
Just found your podcast and am throughly enjoying all the back issues! Thanks for sharing!
Hello! Glad there's now a bit of an archive for you to work through :P
I’ve just finished the Stockholm Slipover’v’ neck and round neck in Rowan felted tweed and love them both. Morris and Son’s is my local yarn shop,love it.
Ooo congrats! I have such a soft spot for Rowan felted tweed, and that will be so beautiful and light.

Hello! Hope you're getting to enjoy some of this glorious sunshine today :) What are you working on at the mo? Summer things?
I am knitting a summer tee which is a testknit and I am about to run out of yarn
Love your podcast gals! Keep it up! 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks lovely 🥰
Wow! The zipped sweater is so professional!
Yeh I think the zip makes it look less like a hand knit. Not that that’s a bad but recon it’s so polished like this
@@twopurlsinapod definitely polished!
Thanks for the video, totally cheered me up when I needed it 😊
Am also feeling very tempted to knit a zipper sweater for everyone in my family! 🤔 a bit much maybe! 😅
I'm glad :) that's the power of knitting. I think a zipper squad would ultimate goals, and given it's quite a buky yarn with lots of stockinette it flies. I recon start with one for yourself and see how you go (cos priorities are self sureley)...
Love your podcast.
Hello! Thanks so much 🥰
The way Paige has single handedly de-influenced and re-influenced me with the KFO heavy merino.
Haha I know right 😂 I’ve come completely full circle and deciding which colour to pick for my own…
@twopurlsinapod I went for their navy and you really can't go wrong with it 😭
@@tarknits3717 mmm it’s a classic. I’m thinking the same. Just deciding between zipper sweater and Lanark…
@@twopurlsinapod I vote zipper sweater! A classic pattern with a classic colour ya knowwww
Great Podcast!.🇦🇺
Hello! Thanks so so much :D

Ooo love that! Thanks for the tip, it’s crazy how “Australian” things aren’t available in Australia but 🤷♀️
First time watching and I really enjoyed your video, so much inspiration! I will go back and watch your other episodes.
I wanted to ask what is the colour of the Noro silk garden solo yarn you are using for your sweater and the pattern you are knitting.
Thank you!
Hello! Glad you liked it 😁 the Noro colour way is S1 and using it to make the Zipper Sweater by petite knit. Hope it’s giving you some good inspo 😉
Here’s two more for you to try both are health and beauty Dead Sea minerals extra rich avocado cream the second is their powerful olive oil and honey cream they have a website but these two creams are amazing
Omg they sound delicious, thank you 😊

Tell me you like Petite Knit without telling me you like Petite Knit... 😅
Haha I know. We should give up and just declare this channel a Petite Knit Stan account.
