OMG! That chocolate brown is divine !!! A color tip that seems to really work is having some part of your make to include the color of your hair. It’s such an easy concept but not that easy to pull off. Thank you for all the Yarny inspiration ♥️
@@knittingagoodyarnpodcast5765 yay!!! You both have beautiful hair and looking forward to seeing how that works out. Have a lovely weekend and thanks so much for all you do for us. 🥰
Hello! I’m the crazy girl who wrapped you and my Ellsworth Shaw at wool and folk! My name is liz I live in Connecticut and it was so fun to hear you talk about it! But in all seriousness, the Elmer is so soft it gives such a beautiful way to that shawl. I’ve made several things in Elmer and it doesn’t pill. It’s incredible! I also do yoga, but I don’t think I could do the KAL.😂😂😂 thanks for doing the podcast. I love seeing your ideas, very inspiring!
Jackie, we can definitely see the experience on the Astrid pullover. It striked me as the most luxurious piece you ever knitted, not in terms of money, but love and attention to the quality, the magic of the fiber and the fit. SO many more things to say, but you say it all, girls. This podcast deserves a full academic study. Love this so much ❤
Oh, you two crack me up! I was in full shouting-at-the-screen mode with the Traveler's Shawl try on, my husband thought there was someone in the room with me. "Move the point to the front, move the point, a little, no, yes, back - you got it!" Jackie - you've made me want to knit the Travelers Shawl now after modeling how many ways you can wear it, and they all look so good - yes please! Both of your Twigs continue to be stunning; I cannot wait to see how your Astrid comes out in that gorgeous yarn Jackie. I've swatched for Plum and just need to commit to Nutiden or not for the colorwork. And Carmen, CONGRATULATIONS on your new yoga teacher status!!!
Omg Megan I needed to hear you! Haha poor Jackie was so patient with me but I clearly was NOT getting it! Can’t wait to see what you come up with re the travelers!! And thank you so much for the congrats on the YTT! I feel so happy to have completed it!
Hi from Sweden! My namn is Anna. I just recently discovered your podcast and I love it!! The chemistry between the two of you, your amazing knits and long episodes is a pure joy to watch! My husband has been away for 4 days and my teenage daughters are busy doing their own stuff, so I have been binge watching your podcast 😂. It has been such nice company, thank you 🙏. Knitting is a huge part of my life and I am also into yoga and mindfulness so I totally identify with the two of you! Even though i live in Sweden I have never tried Nutiden...😂. I have knitted alot in Plötulopi. I like it alot, but think its a little bit prickly. So i Will definitely try Nutiden as soon as possible 👍🏼. Thanks again for a wounderful podcast 👍🏼🥰. Anna
Aw Anna!!! Welcome and we are so thrilled that you are enjoying the podcast! Haha we definitely are a bit out of the ordinary but we know that our tribe will find us and enjoy it! So glad you’re here!! And I hope you try nutiden! It is really unlike anything I’ve ever knit with and is completely full of magic!
I ordered nutiden this past week!! From de older collections, White, dark grey/brownish and light grey. It feels so soft and wonderful 👍🏼. I will cast on something as soon as I finish a super big blanket in brioche that I am making as a graduation gift to my daughter 👍🏼. I wish both of you a wonderful weekend! Anna 🥰
❤ love the ebb and flow of your sharing. The puppies mirror your opening excitement then all flow into the rhythm as you journey along. I love that and am drawn in by it. Near the close you touched on knitting as a meditative activity - so true for me - yet not all meditation is the same for me. Knitting is an emergent meditation, sometimes also immersive but truly a space-creating meditation that invites expansion, growth, possibilities otherwise unknown. So appreciate your openness to knitting as an expanding pathway for being.
Julie, I have read this 5,6,7 times and continue to be in awe of your eloquence with words. Couldn’t agree more and grateful that you’ve not only made my inner experience manifest but are sharing in it with me! Thank You!!! ❤❤❤
Omg when I first read this comment I knew I needed to savour it! And now I come back to respond and see that Jackie even responded to it in the interim. This was so beautifully en pointe and so intoxicatingly thought-provoking. I have a belief that creative process is a co-creation of the humans involved plus an extra force/entity that joins to manifest art. When I read your words, I felt like you not only see things similarly, but that you’ve even expanded it furthermore to show me how, not only does our podcast unveil itself as we sit there and are open to the offerings, but even our dogs are in on the orchestration. There is such wisdom that exists beyond even the person/people that are “doing the creating.” I have always loved the study of literature, but I remember times, analyzing a novel and the ways everything dovetailed so perfectly together, and thinking, “no way did this author plan all of this.” And in this moment, writing this now, I realize that it’s true. That author had ideas and plans but the absolute impact and power and beauty of the novel any author writes is actually outside of them. The interaction between the human and the other forces involved means that the final product is just soooo much better than any human could have ever planned. And here you are showing me the same thing with Jackie’s and my creation. We do things but we don’t plan any of this. Haha we obv don’t tell our dogs when to bark or when to quiet down. But we have also never discussed this fascinating idea of knitting as an emergent vs immersive meditation. And yet you have language for this and can read something in what we create that is beyond any intention we ever had consciously. I think that is just beyond incredible and joyful and affirming and just solidifies my belief that we don’t need to know what we’re doing at any given time, we just have to act with love and the rest will take care of itself. Thank you for the blissful, peaceful, hopeful state you have just created in my body right now! ♥️♥️♥️
@@knittingagoodyarnpodcast5765 beautifully woven - thanks Carmen and Jackie 💕 So appreciated. I am continually amazed how being open on multimodal and multidimensional levels breathes in and allows for energy to perpetuate, evolve and create. Part of me is deeply pleased to have connected with you both. Another part of me is laughing with and at myself as part of what we do seeps into how we are with others - my roles as a researcher and professor of literature, culture and society mediate my ways of being whether I am “doing” that job or moving on to other things. Such fun to share time with you
You two are such good company! It's always a treat when a new episode comes out. I was tempted by the No.28 but then didn't like the loose hem as it appeared on the photos. But seeing it on Carmen totally changed my mind! On my needles: Cordelia tee for the swiss yarn festival KAL.
Aw thank you! I can tell you that I’ve now finished it, left it cropped and it’s one of my fave sweaters of all time!! And I just looked up the Cordelia tee and that is gorgeous!!
Ohhh, that Sunday Morning Luxe Sport looks and drapes beautifully. Must catch that drop! I also had a visceral reaction to the Diagonal Pinstripe Shawl. And that grey and pink yarn Jacki held up instantly brought to mind my favorite sneakers I had in high school, 42 years ago. So my shawl will be grey and pink! (which is quite out-there for me as I am NOT a pink fan.)
Funny, I went to youtube this afternoon to see if there would be a new podcast from you gals! I was just telling my husband you must both be quite busy because it's been a while... and there you were! And imagine my surprise when you mentioned by two latest knits! Oh my gosh, thx so much for the shout out! I feel so humbled!! And now I understand why I woke up to so many likes on my ravelry project page for the Friday I'm in Love! LOL!! Really though, you are both so inspiring and I love every mn of your podcasts so thx again for this new one! And jackie I have some VIrvan left and already all separated out by shades! Yours if you want it!! 😁
About aquisitions, I love watching even though in Brazil the good yarns cost 8-10x more than in Canada. I don't mind, and from time to time I can buy Drops and am very happy with it. I just makes me dream. Love your work ❤
I'm a new subscriber to your channel and so enjoy others that can talk hours about their knitting! While watching I was finishing the 7 stitch i-cord bind off for my Artus shawl. It's a bit of a slog but really finishes off the shawl. I have had this shawl on my radar since pattern release, but then just had to cast on after I was catching up on your last episode and you two were just getting started. Looking forward to your next episode!
Welcome Donna!!! So great to have you with us!! Haha although there’s a 7 st i-cord coming at the end of my Artus?? Haha I had no idea and I’m so so jealous that you’re done yours! Would love to see your version if you want to dm me on insta!
Lovely episode ladies. Love to hear the puppies. We’re back to normal, lol. I love how they echo the excitement you both express 😊. Congrats Carmen! That’s a huge accomplishment!
Congratulations Carmen! 1 month away sounds hard & fun and the retreat sweater will be so beautiful! Honestly I am just loving all your knits so much! It is always such a pleasure to watch your episodes! The Twigses are so beautiful - can’t wait to see both finished. I probably could never get myself to knit it but it’s great to see yours come to life ❤️❤️❤️ I just cast on the Gem Sweater to balance out my 2 stranded mohair knit … 😅 Have a lovely March!
I’ve only watched a fraction of this so I may need to comment again after I’ve watched more. Carmen that sweater #28 is so gorgeous. Had to stop and go find the pattern. That shade of grey is so me. I am trying not to buy yarn but yikes it’s beautiful. Jackie the Hygge Hug pullover is stunning. I’d have the pattern if it was available now. I guess I need to wait. Missed you two.
Aw thank you and so glad the dogs weren’t too bad for you! Haha we’re thinking we’ll prob stick with just my dogs moving forward though since the three all together just get each other too worked up!
so good to see you two again! congratulations on completing the training, Carmen! and i'm fascinated by the sweater no. 28, in part because you'd often said that you dislike ribbing (as do i), so HOW did you manage to make an entire sweater almost entirely of ribbing?!?! what secrets can you share for learning to like it enough? Also, it might be interesting to try the Aleks Byrd sweater using nutiden, as i've done roosimine-like floats in Teti Lutsak's Laneus patterns and it's totally smooth sailing to do...? And, i must be a weird knitting outlier, as i have yet to knit ANY patterns by Andrea Mowry. contemplating Birds of a Feather, but not there yet with the yarn choices.
p.s. small tip when trying stuff on that still has needles in -- one of my cats (George, who clearly has oral fixation issues) chewed up a silicone barber cord at some point into numerous smaller pieces (like 6-8" long, thereabouts), and it turns out they are GREAT to slide on to the ends of both needles when trying things on, functionally both closes the loop & makes the cable much longer. i use my cord scraps ALL THE TIME now -- thanks, George! (and re: dark brown sweaters, the yarn i'm currently contemplating for a MAYBE Twigs is mYak in chocolate... maybe)
and one more p.s. (always!) -- if you haven't seen Kutovakika's epic podcast on knitting her own wedding dress, you must find it and watch, posthaste! just an amazing process.
Oooh i have to ask Jackie but I think it was Nutiden and handspun??? Hmmm there might have been some painting with mohair in that too. Haha if this were reversed, Jackie would know every detail of my sweater…even more than I would know myself!
I've never been to Toronto, but will be going in September for a weaving workshop, to make a tartan shawl. Textiles are a great jam, and someone will set up the floor loom for me and let me try it out. Amazing, right?!
What I here y'all saying is you need to look at Kirsten Joel designs... I've don't the my Slipover test am and on another one coming out in the fall and they're both this rhythmic non stockinette that I think everyone needs ... And don't freak out they're seamed but it's so worth it and still knits > purls
I haven't watched in a while because I felt the they were too long but now I' ve hit the bell button😂 That was my sort of relaxing chaos, the dog tangles were hilarious. Just honest love of yarn and projects. Then I had an epiphany, I live full time in a motorhome, there is minimum storage what am I doing knittings endless progects, I adore Junko's work, I even have an Astid split for sleeves stored at one of my kids homes!!!! I have beautiful yarn in stash for atleast 3 sweaters. Im going to knit Junko with you, I'm going to enjoy my knitting and every stitch and stop searching for the next pattern. Thankyou lovely ladies❤
Omg I could not love this more!!! First, come and go as you please! Haha we do talk forever and maybe that’s too much for you sometimes and exactly what you need at other times. We honestly don’t concern ourselves with likes or subscribes and we recognize that that is bc this is not our full-time thing, so absolutely no shade to those who do really need that! But bc of that, seriously, you do you, and if we can bring you joy at any point, we are so happy to do that!! Also, the possibility that we are inspiring you to complete a project that you have been holding off on, is sooo uplifting for us as well!! Please please dm us on insta if you have an account and post your beautiful Junko progress!!!!
Haha aw thank you for the endorsement to stick it out with the dogs! It’s true, they do settle! Boy oh boy they were in fine form today though! So glad you persevered!!!
Aw we totally understand!!! Lily won’t likely come next time but we really do appreciate that the noise might just be too much! So sorry if we hurt your ears!!
Hi from northern MN. The dogs are hilarious, or at least the startle effect they had at the end of the video. You ladies might be extremely talented yarn managers and creators, but I think you need some tips on canine management! ha I am experienced at canine management but guess I would trade that for what you have (the yarn part) Thank you for sharing your talents..
Totally understand and so sorry for the barking! We’re thinking we may have to stick to just my dogs moving forward since the three of them together just excite each other too much!! So sorry if it hurt your ears!
Aw so sorry! They really are annoying but we love them. In the future we’re going to stick with just my two dogs who don’t tend to get as riled up when it’s just them together but totally understand if barking is just a dealbreaker!
OMG! That chocolate brown is divine !!! A color tip that seems to really work is having some part of your make to include the color of your hair. It’s such an easy concept but not that easy to pull off. Thank you for all the Yarny inspiration ♥️
Oh that is FASCINATING! I’m literally choosing colours for a cast on and this is totally going to be something I think about!!
@@knittingagoodyarnpodcast5765 yay!!! You both have beautiful hair and looking forward to seeing how that works out. Have a lovely weekend and thanks so much for all you do for us. 🥰

Love love love Carmen’s brown sweater on you Jackie!! You are so cute in it and its a gorgeous sweater.
Carmen, that sweater is one of the most stunning pieces I ever seen! Put the messy insides energy aside and luxuriate in the outside beauty!!
Omg I love this so much…so much that I was inspired to wear it today! Haha and when my husband saw me he said, wow what a beautiful sweater!
Thank you so much!!
It most certainly will make most people take notice!

Aw thank you and so glad the dogs weren’t too bad for you! Haha we’re thinking we’ll prob stick with just my dogs moving forward though since the three all together just get each other too worked up!
Lol! It took my 3 days to finish this! Love you guys but now a yoga fan. I like kickboxing and Bootcamp. Yoga is too calming.
Haha I love that and totally get it! Yoga isn’t for everyone! And boot camp is way too hard for me! So glad there are so many options!!

Aw thank you so much!! Haha and so glad we could inspire you!!
YAY, you all are back! 👏🏼
We’re so happy to be back at it!!
Missed your podcast, glad to see you again.
Oh thank you! Hope you enjoyed it!!
so good to see you two again! congratulations on completing the training, Carmen! and i'm fascinated by the sweater no. 28, in part because you'd often said that you dislike ribbing (as do i), so HOW did you manage to make an entire sweater almost entirely of ribbing?!?! what secrets can you share for learning to like it enough? Also, it might be interesting to try the Aleks Byrd sweater using nutiden, as i've done roosimine-like floats in Teti Lutsak's Laneus patterns and it's totally smooth sailing to do...? And, i must be a weird knitting outlier, as i have yet to knit ANY patterns by Andrea Mowry. contemplating Birds of a Feather, but not there yet with the yarn choices.
p.s. small tip when trying stuff on that still has needles in -- one of my cats (George, who clearly has oral fixation issues) chewed up a silicone barber cord at some point into numerous smaller pieces (like 6-8" long, thereabouts), and it turns out they are GREAT to slide on to the ends of both needles when trying things on, functionally both closes the loop & makes the cable much longer. i use my cord scraps ALL THE TIME now -- thanks, George! (and re: dark brown sweaters, the yarn i'm currently contemplating for a MAYBE Twigs is mYak in chocolate... maybe)
and one more p.s. (always!) -- if you haven't seen Kutovakika's epic podcast on knitting her own wedding dress, you must find it and watch, posthaste! just an amazing process.
Hi! I am a newish viewer and Loved Jackie’s Lumme. I would love to know what yarn you used. Really enjoying your projects and humor!
Oooh i have to ask Jackie but I think it was Nutiden and handspun??? Hmmm there might have been some painting with mohair in that too. Haha if this were reversed, Jackie would know every detail of my sweater…even more than I would know myself!
Have your tried a paper bag on your wrap over the wax and then putting a hot iron on the paper sack! It helps take out the wax.
May help some XO
Cool idea!!! Thank you!!!
I’ll be looking for you at the Sonder booth at Knit City! It’s the first priority on my list!
Ooooh can’t wait to meet you!!
I've never been to Toronto, but will be going in September for a weaving workshop, to make a tartan shawl. Textiles are a great jam, and someone will set up the floor loom for me and let me try it out. Amazing, right?!
Omg! Amazing! Let us know how it goes!!
nice to see you again!
What I here y'all saying is you need to look at Kirsten Joel designs... I've don't the my Slipover test am and on another one coming out in the fall and they're both this rhythmic non stockinette that I think everyone needs ... And don't freak out they're seamed but it's so worth it and still knits > purls
Jackie, it may be too late, but some Linen Quill colors are 30% off!😊
Aw!! Thank you!!
I’m about to cast on the Seli Sweater! Yours is beautiful!!
Thank you! Haha I hope you’re using dk or worsted for the sleeve detail!!
Forgot to say that if you planned a Yoga - Knitting retreat I would definetely join in that! Not so sure about the knit in a yoga position though! LOL
Bahaha totally get it and maybe we will do the knitting retreat sometime! That would be so fun!!
Save some of that brown yarn for me girls!!! gorgeous!!!
You give me no choice… I need twigs in my life ❤
Carmen what type of printer do you have. My patterns never print out so nice. Or is it a special ink/paper?
Aw! Thank you! Haha I just have a run of the mill hp laser printer! I can get you the actual model if you’d like?
I was cleaning and listening so maybe you said, but could you do the seli sleeves flat?
I haven't watched in a while because I felt the they were too long but now I' ve hit the bell button😂 That was my sort of relaxing chaos, the dog tangles were hilarious. Just honest love of yarn and projects. Then I had an epiphany, I live full time in a motorhome, there is minimum storage what am I doing knittings endless progects, I adore Junko's work, I even have an Astid split for sleeves stored at one of my kids homes!!!! I have beautiful yarn in stash for atleast 3 sweaters. Im going to knit Junko with you, I'm going to enjoy my knitting and every stitch and stop searching for the next pattern. Thankyou lovely ladies❤

Love your podcast. I met you both in Rhinebeck. I will see you again at Knitcity Toronto in May. I also have a podcast. I just published episode 5.
Omg it will be so amazing to see you again Christina!! And love that you’re already on episode 5!!!
I will stop by the Sonder Yarn booth and say hi. @@knittingagoodyarnpodcast5765
Youre back!🎉🎉🎉😊
Hahaha yes!!! Longer than ever!!!
The loud dog barking is mostly done at 22:00, with one more episode at 26:00. You miss 1 sweater knit at a yoga retreat.
Haha aw thank you for the endorsement to stick it out with the dogs! It’s true, they do settle! Boy oh boy they were in fine form today though! So glad you persevered!!!
Thank you for this! I skipped these parts. My anxiety and my cats appreciate you!
Thanks for the heads up, I had to take a break from the barking. 😮
My dogs were joining in the chorus 😂
We definitely are realizing we prob need to stick with just my dogs bc the three of them rile each other up too much!!
❤❤❤
Legs up the wall .. (I forget the Sanskrit name) is my vote for the yogaknitkal.
Viparita karani?
Yaaaaassss!! And that’s exactly it @carolinvonfritsch5312!!
@@carolinvonfritsch5312thats the one .. I think it might work to knit for a little while … until you got too relaxed 😊
The dogs though 😅
I know! So sorry!! We’re not going to have all three together for a while I think
I would probably stab myself in my eye!😂
Haha I had a few close calls!!
#knitmastekal!
Omg!!!! Yes this is so good!!!!
#posesyoucanknit 😉
Ooooh I like it!!
Knitting- how are you?!how unreal traveler~bye,
I am so sorry. I would love to listen to your podcast but I just can't with the dogs. ☹️
Same here. 😅
Aw we totally understand!!! Lily won’t likely come next time but we really do appreciate that the noise might just be too much! So sorry if we hurt your ears!!
The pronunciation is "june-ko"
Hi from northern MN. The dogs are hilarious, or at least the startle effect they had at the end of the video. You ladies might be extremely talented yarn managers and creators, but I think you need some tips on canine management! ha I am experienced at canine management but guess I would trade that for what you have (the yarn part) Thank you for sharing your talents..
Omg!!! Yes we doooo need your canine guidance! Haha we are clearly lacking in that area!!
First one!)
Ooooh i love that!!!
With earbuds in, it can be pretty intolerable
Soooo sorry!!!!! 🙇🏻♀️🙇🏻♀️🙇🏻♀️
I ❤pizza, more barking! Don’t worry
Haha thank you!!!! Glad he didn’t drive you nuts!!
I really wanted to watch your podcast. I have never seen it. I just couldn't listen to the constant barking dogs! Beautiful sweaters!
Totally understand and so sorry for the barking! We’re thinking we may have to stick to just my dogs moving forward since the three of them together just excite each other too much!! So sorry if it hurt your ears!
Your barking dogs are annoying and it’s so unprofessional. Stopped watching because of the barking.
Aw so sorry! They really are annoying but we love them. In the future we’re going to stick with just my two dogs who don’t tend to get as riled up when it’s just them together but totally understand if barking is just a dealbreaker!
Hello from Finland and thanks to you two for showind your knitting 🥰
Aw so good to have you with us Pirkko!!!
