I've found that during the summer, I like to sew in place of knitting. My summer knitting plans are all socks, easy on the hands and not hot on my lap.
I knit in winter, but spring and early summer is all about the gardening. When the weather gets hot, I retreat into the a/c and resume knitting.
I took a water color class and our instructor focused on drawing first. He recommended the book, “drawing on the right side of your brain.”
That's a great book!
Great book and a good read, isn't it? It's good for all but specially for those who think that they can't draw , don't have tallent ... I love the book!
You my dear are an enabler! “Watercolor workbook” and “Botanical Line Drawing” jumped into my Amazon cart and are now on the way to my house. More things to dabble in. 😂😂
Isn't she though!!!
I am just relieved that I don't have to spend money on anything else, it all goes to handwork/art supplies!!!
I go between knitting and crocheting and also taking care of my 70 orchids. I fell down that rabbit hole full force with orchids.
Hi everyone! I'm back and feeling so much better. Join me for a cozy ramble on the things I've been keeping busy with since we last met. All links are in my bio. ❤
PS For the sake of time, the remaining MAL submissions will be shown in the next episode.
(Pardon my fresh-out-of-the-shower hair. 😬)
❤ the hair😂
I saw that video about cutting the roots too!! I’ve been doing a lot of planning around my indoor plants. It’s so cool to watch them sprout little leaves!!
Oh I know right!? I feel like I’ve given them new life! ☺️
I love Angela Fehr watercolor you tube. Who doesn’t love happy little 🌲 trees?
It's great to hear you are feeling better.
I dabble in too many hobbies - not in any particular order - crocheting, knitting, furniture refinishing, paper mache, scrapbooking, gardening ....
Tayler! I purchased the Palette Perfect book based on your recommendation and I’m OBSESSED! So many gorgeous combos and color inspiration! My scrappy blanket game is going to be elite and unmatched this season 😈
Also, your hair looks amazing! The curls are so retro and adorable. The length, the texture is *chefs kiss*.
I really connect with the part about, having lots of crafts to do, but wondering around, not knowing what I want to do and not getting anything done. I've got so many things to make and I spend all my time knitting. But if I think about the quilts I want to make, or the adult coloring books I've collected and want to color, or the piles of books to read, I just feel the tension in my shoulders start to build and hurt. I have to only think and do one thing at a time or I get nothing done.
I hit the 14 minute mark and it really resonated with me when I get overloaded with choices of things I *could* do, but then I'm overloaded and hit ADHD paralysis, so I end up mostly not doing anything. 🥲 These days I've been trying to plan two things I can do every day (even simple like tend this part of the garden and weave 4" of my current towel project) so I don't get stuck like that so often.
My craft seasons definitely follow my mind set energy. Sometimes if life is crazy I just need something that doesn't require too much thought.❤ We have been doing lots of physical work, and for this granny, that means more naps.😊
On the plants--Ha! I'm 65 yrs. old & sometimes wonder if I have undiagnosed ADHD! I dive into new projects like this all the time!
Totally agree that hobbies have seasons! I also just started both knitting and watercolor so this was my perfect podcast 😊 Glad you’re feeling better!
I’ve fallen down so many creative rabbit holes too! Knitting is always first but I am learning embroidery, cross stitch and dabbled with watercolors. Great episode!
I love the placemats from tshirts! So cool!
I’m glad that you are feeling better…you were missed! I don’t paint, but I still find it fascinating to watch. Have a lovely day!❤
I’ve fallen into the exact same house plants wormhole (Sheffield Made Plants). 😂 I just had the one snake plant and I felt like it wasn’t growing, so I looked for videos to learn. My YT feed is now all plants, crochet and knitting (and cats!) and I bought two new plants and separated the snake plant in two pots. It’s good to keep busy, whatever the hobby!
He is really soo enjoyable to listen to and I watched the same video on snake plants (I have two hanging in front of this big window where I film) and it was an eye opener. And yeah. I’m strangely more interested in the indoor plant section at Home Depot now. Lol. 😅
I'm glad the "Break the Curse" KAL is continuing. My mother sent me a neck light a few days ago and I can now SEE my stitches, which has helped immensely! Still have quite a few miles left to go to complete it, though, so you're not the only one who still isn't finished with it.
I have hobby seasons too! I’m doing some embroidery as I watch you right now. I also wanted to say that I don’t always comment but I always watch and like and your videos are great! Thanks for the book recommendations. I always love those! ❤
This means a lot Star. Thank you! Enjoy your embroidery! ❤️
A bag from swatches! Brilliant!
I feel your making struggle for sure. I’ve been sewing more lately for our new grandchild due in August. That has been fun. Knitting just hasn’t been my go to right now. The struggle is real. I paint, draw, knit, weave, crochet, embroider, needlepoint, garden, sew etc etc. You can see that I’m called in many directions. Recently I thought I might want to learn how to throw pottery, but stopped myself and thought I can pull from the list above instead. Even retired, I can’t find time for it all. (I just bought that watercolor book. Thanks for enabling😊).
Phew. Hearing that there isn't a date in mind for the #breakthecursekal was what I needed to hear to rip apart the oversized sweater I've been working on for my husband! Glad you're feeling better.
Since seeing your book review of C J Sansom I am just finishing my third one and have a fourth on order with the library. What great books. I live in middle England love history so these books are so fascinating to me. Bring history to life. Thank you for your recommendation 👍
Oh that’s so great Carol! Aren’t they fantastic? So immersive and engrossing. I’m almost finished with the fifth now and just received the 6th in the mail yesterday. 🤓🤓❤️❤️
And I can’t wait to visit England one day soon. Soo much fascinating history!
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS Hello Taylor. I have just finished my fourth C J Sansom book ‘Tombland’. I listen to audiobooks as I am registered blind and have very little vision left now. All I can say is “how thick is this book in print?” Most of the books are two to two and a half hours listening time. Tombland is 37 hours 41 minutes 😂😂. Brilliant books and so addictive. Now listening to Dissolution which is only 2 hours 14 minutes 😂😂. Love your latest rescue shawl. I am wanting to knit a very large shawl but going to have to wait until the weather gets cooler.
Fall and Winter just feel knitty and yarny. Warm drink, warm yarn, yadda yadda. But come Summer I need to read outside as much as possible! Great book recommendation, I will look for that. Just finished The Forgery of Venus by Michael Gruber, kind of a mystery about art forgery, artists mentality in general and totally engrossing. Glad you are well and full of energy again!
I learned about the Ilene Bag from you, and I’ve already made 3 of them! It is a great project for me to take with me and knit when I’m out and about. 😊
Thanks for reminding me of the Shardlake series. I'd forgotten how much I'd enjoyed them. Downloading from Audible as I type ...
Thanks for sharing all these watercolour resources!
Last summer I had a momentum with lettering and air dry clay ( this last one urge is coming back strong at the moment) but I always regret not following up on drawing classes when I was a child so I think I might dip in watercolour ☺️.
Lovely episode❤
So glad you’re feeling better! 👍❤️🧶🧶🧶
Hi Tayler. I'm so glad that you're feeling better. It's good to see you back and to see what you accomplished while you were sick and recovering. Have a lovely and crafty week!
Hello, It was fun to see all the projects everyone is doing. I'm definitely going to check out CJ Samsom books. I love the Tudor era. Thank you for always have such a fun podcast...
My knitting mojo has dwindled but my sewing mojo is flourishing! Sewing all sorts of collared blouses, jeans and pants. My yarn can wait patiently until I decide to come back to knitting. This happens every couple of years. Sometimes annually
Glad you are feeling better. We missed you. Love your repurposed Grandma bag! What a special project. Beautiful work from your followers as well. Thanks for sharing.
Knitting is my first hobby, but I also LOVE Scrapbooking. Scrapbooking takes a back seat for the summer months...one, I have a large garden, two...the humidity causes havoc with paper! It soaks up the moisture and then doesn't cut cleanly.... So for now, it's knitting!
I get it! I get into rabbit holes and explore new things randomly. Summer definitely brings about a whole new vibe for the things I do. And there are times in the year when the focus is different for hobbies and interests. ❤😊
Love this video, Tayler! You perfectly express how I feel every summer about creative exploration and self-expression.
I do the same thing with my indoor and outdoor potted plants every 3 years. New soil also. I have also started working on my long forgotten wips. I started also 2 top down yoke pullovers, but just working on the yokes and then putting them away until the fall to finish. I have a pile of books that I bought years ago and never got around to them...started a Nicholas Sparks book which is a fast read. Then I have a trilogy of Ken Follett books to get to. Too much to do and too little time
You are going to love the bag using the wooden handles...your yarn choice is perfect!!
Do we need to analyze everything? No, we do not. So your hobbies ebb & flow. It's not right or wrong. It just is. Do what makes you happy in that moment. 🙂
Oh, but I so LOVE to analyze absolutely everything. 😉 No i totally agree with you. Of course, being the host of a knitting channel on TH-cam does cause me to have to prioritize my creative time. It just IS that way.
Thank Goodness for today’s podcast! I now know that it’s normal for me to put my knitting or crocheting down and dive into something else for a bit. I bought a small cross stitch kit a couple of weeks ago and dove into that. It took me until halfway through to remember why I don’t cross stitch much (it tends to bore me to tears) but I finished it and it turned out pretty decent!!!
I have not been able to access the community tab from the app so I have to go into Google and get on TH-cam from there and it works but then I’m not able to edit my comments on videos from there. Anyway I just realized yesterday that I can access the community tab from the app now!!! YAY!!! The bag of your grandmas that you are redoing is so beautiful, Tayler. Your grandmother would be proud! 🌵
Glad you’re feeling better! That Watercolor Workshop book looks like fun!
Fun hanging out with you today. I can relate to dabbling in other things (normally I just go back and forth between knitting and crochet but I also take breaks and go down rabbit holes, lol. I’ve gotten into succulents during the pandemic. I do not have a green thumb (just to be clear) which is why I probably “fell into” having a bit of fun with them during the spring/summertime. And lately I’m dabbling into embroidery 🪡 🧵 with my teen daughter. :)
Welcome back Tayler. Once again your vid is sooo very timely for me. Like you, knitting for me is my main squeeze but my partner and I are about to head off for 5 months touring Australia in our caravan and the thought of choosing patterns, making sure I have all the wool and needles and then sitting around a red dirt campfire at night and trying to keep all that tidy… even with the best project bags…has just been too daunting for me. So I have decided this is the perfect time to CROCHET. I will be making the Sundance Throw you mentioned a few episodes ago. 5 cakes of wool, a repetitive stitch pattern and one hook is perfect! I will still be relying on your videos to help soothe my knitting soul but new craft crochet here I come. 😂
Perfectly timed subjects. I’m a daily crocheter who discovered your channel on my quest to take up knitting as well. I’m also an artist with loads of art supplies hibernating while I’ve been on this years long crochet obsession. I do get creative paralysis with so many options calling my name. LOVE the premise of the watercolor book. I ordered it to brush up on my skills and jump back into the paints. Thank you!
Glad you’re feeling better! 🙏🏻 Awesome watercolor book!! Great projects from so many creative people!!
Glad you’re feeling better 😊
So glad you’re feeling better! I have 2 bags from my great-grandmother with those same handles! I have always used them as project bags! Also, I really enjoyed learning more about watercolor…great episode.
Loved it Tayler, I knit all year round, but my other craft is spinning so the two go together. Really enjoyed seeing all about your painting and love your projects. Looking forward to the next chapter ❤
You just crack me up! Loved this episode and all it offered. My husband said, "of everyone she is the easiest to listen to". Loved the book "Watercolor Workbook" by Sarah Simon. I am buying it for my brother for Christmas. He's an accomplished artist in alot of mediums but he loves to just doodle . He's 72 and this will be so fun. I love the watercolor medium. I have said it before, will say it again...I always learn so much from your episodes.
Love the book series recommendation. I’ve been re-reading the Phillipa Gregory Plantangenet and Tudor series, but ready for something new. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻
I think I’m the queen of creative rabbit hole . Lol Especially if I am stressed
I’m so happy to see you back to your spunky self
Glad you are feeling better and yes listened to your body
I use to watercolour but really consumed me with drawing painting etc a little to much … but loved it but when I moved I left paints in bin and never got back into
You look like a natural so enjoy it !!!!
It’s amazing when you see project come alive 😊😊
Great to see you back well and on board!!
Love your progress on all things knitting and painting and plants. We love seeing you regardless of how much you’ve “done”. That’s kinda not the point. 💚
Hi, I’m glad you are feeling better. Enjoyed the episode. Your book recommendation- You a girl after my own heart, and that is going on my list to read.
Spring/summer for me. I still knit and crochet a lot but I also do plants Or garden and plant new things in my yard plus reading and camping !,
I painted with watercolors for a couple of years before I started knitting. I loved seeing the watercolor books
New subbed here! Enjoyed your video. I love different hobbies. But I have to be careful bc I get so many going at once that nothing gets done lol. I started my own youtube channel as a mom and have a crochet/knit podcast on here. Really enjoying just being free to talk about my craft. I learned knitting first while on bed rest with my middle child and have been hooked ever since lol ❤
Kniiting is my main squeeze as well; it has always been a “pick up put down” hobby based on what was going on with my kids when they were younger and life in general. I find great enjoyment in it now with such unfettered access to so much beautiful 🧶 ❤.
Speaking of beautiful yarn, I am excited for a possible Golden Knights-Stanley Cup colour way….6-1 after 40 min….think we’re going to see Stanley tonight😉
Summer knitting (or crafting) is def differnt for me also. I switch to smaller projects or making final touches on (99%) finished projects (e.g blocking or weaving ends). Thanks for the video Tayler 😊🐑🌞
You were definitely talking about my life - seasons! Could not have explained it better. I also find reading to be a good move, except when I can't decide what book to read next.
I love the Shardlake series by Cj Sansom. I am listening to the last in the series now called Tombland. I am really enjoying it as I have the others. I am glad you are finding time to get back to your book. Glad you are making time to enjoy your book😊
Haha, I have ZERO indoor plants and I’m finding that plant video as soon as I’m done watching you lol
I wasn't able to participate in the something old/something new make along this time, but I hope you do it again next spring! Such a great idea.
Ohhhhhh ... I already have the whole shebang to pursuit that hobby...in a drawer...and pan pastels, and pastels, and a million coloured pencils museum quality, and paper, and ...you name it , I have it....but then, then I started knitting!!!!🫣🫥🙄😵💫🙃😄....and started going to meetings and knowing new people like me...and just don't have the time ...all that I love takes so much time!!! And it's done on a chair, I struggle to get some exercise!!! I'm always thinking about drawing or painting but it's so much easier to knit on the sofa.....( maybe if I had a room just for myself it would be easier...)...but really I just wanted to thank you once more to give me the absolute urge of buying that special book and give it a go😊🥰...about the sweater curse, I have been thinking and concluded it might be useful some day so not going to break it. 😉Lots of love from Lisbon 🥰!
So glad you are feeling chipper again, Tayler! Great to see your post. Yes, I have ebb and flows in my hobbies. I'm still plugging away on my granddaughter's baby afghan, but had a short detour to make a striped baby ball for a co-worker's baby shower and I did a watercolor graduation card for my niece (she's funky and artistic and thought she'd appreciate a one-of-a-kind card). I like to watch Jenna Lefebvre's watercolor tutorials and Ellen Crimi-Trent's tutorials, but will check out Paul Clark. I have the Jenna Ramey book and Barron's 101 Watercolor Techniques. Definitely I'm spending more time with my hands in the dirt and I love that too! Thanks for sharing!
Welcome back, so glad you're better! I think many of us can relate to the seasonal aspect of choosing how we spend our time. In the Summer I have a garden to maintain (so many flowers, herbs and tomatoes out there) but I still want to knit (mostly smaller projects) and work on my temperature blanket in the evenings. Reading (mostly audiobooks), too. But in the Fall, Winter and Spring I do a lot of cooking/baking, knitting bigger projects and general house/yard clean up. This Fall I plan to get back to writing (last year it was haiku) and maybe start drawing. There's so much to do, it's really hard to choose sometimes. Have you read the Charles Todd books, the Inspector Rutherford series? Very well written, good character development, interesting historical notes. Love the watercolor book recommendation, I might have to buy that! Thanks!
I love the watercolor workbook 😮 With my long-covid watercolor takes up too much of my energy, but this will be a great way to learn the techniques with half the brainpower!😅
To me, which hobby I'm drawn to seems to be mainly dictated by how soon I can wear (or gift) the finished product. Spring & Summer = break out the sewing machine, time to make some floral cotton sundresses. Fall & Winter = dig out that wool, it's sweater (& cardigan, shawl, hat, etc) season baby!
Lol great video. This reminds me of a time when I was visiting my LYS last summer. The gal there said business does taper off in the summer time and a lot more people go out and garden…(including myself)
I’m definitely still in my knitting season. I have so many summer items I want to knit, I haven’t even casted on all of them but bought more summer yarn in cones. Plus I want to knit a bralette. Also have gift items to knit: hats and socks. I have time but so much to knit!
Everything you are saying sounds so familiar! 13:39 I am wrapped up in so many different crafts that I don't know how to prioritise them and it makes me feel so overwhelmed. Also like you said I can't just sit and knit around my family. I need to feel it as a special moment, same as my time for meditation.
So glad you're feeling better! I absolutely have hobby seasons - when spring and summer come out I am outside/in the garden (especially at my parents', they have a fantastic one every year). Reading, knitting/crochet, and bowling are ones that I've had ebbs and flows with year-round, but I'm also into painting a little, video games a little, puzzles a little -- just things that I can pick up and put down with whatever's catching my eye.
I'm going to have to check out that author; I have so many books on my TBR, but what's another one? 😂
Thanks for the book recommendation. I read The other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory and was hooked. Will give this a try thanks Judy
You’re welcome! I’ve never cracked a Phillipa Gregory book and I definitely NEED to. I hear they’re fantastic. ❤️
Love that historical era! Totally reading that next. I’m starting a pottery class Friday (long time goal I’m finally doing) and hoping it’ll become my summer hobby😂
Omg Tish! I can’t wait to hear how that goes. I’ve always wanted to do a pottery class. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Potato chip knitting! I haven't actually heard that term and I love it😄 This can go along with my 'candy bar' books (things I read that are just fast and fun like urban fantasy series)
That watercolor book looks amazing. I got really into acrylic painting a few years ago by watching Art Sherpa and one thing she emphasized that stuck with me is that drawing and painting are two different skills. Tracing a design and then painting it is still painting. Thinking of them as two separate skills really helped me develop both because it made me realize that they both require different techniques to improve. For instance, trying to practice drawing on a canvas that I'm going to paint is not super effective. But practicing in a sketchbook and then tracing my final drawing onto the canvas to paint allowed me to practice both skills effectively.
Anyway, now I gotta go buy that watercolor book...
This is FANTASTIC advice and I’ve come to realize that it’s so true. ❤️❤️
One of the interesting things about having ADHD is the tendency to hyper-focus and also to squirrel. So I'm always rotating through a dozen hobbies. I got really into growing orchids for a couple years but now my mother looks after them. Taking care of plants was too much weighed with all the mammals I have to keep alive lol.
I love to read as well. Thank you for sharing this book recommendation, I will have to check it out. If you haven’t read Fourth Wing I highly recommend it! You can’t get in Canada right now because it’s sold out everywhere, it’s that good.
Thank you
Hi Taylor! I so enjoy all of your videos. When you talk about the ebb and flow of your various hobbies, I can totally relate. I would love to know where you source your butcher's tray and ceramic pallets. Thanks. Kath
I had to laugh when i saw your ilene bag in progress. I repurposed yarn for mine, and I'm at the same point with mine. It really does feel like "sloggin" through. It is bulky, and I can only knit a few rows before having to put it aside!
I have other things pulling on me-quilting, gardening etc. I have to do just one thing at a time (after prioritizing the list).
Ugh Kathy! I’m so glad that I’m not alone with this. ❤️❤️
Hi Missus Earl, I hope you got my submission, and I realize that you can't show all the submissions, so I have no way of knowing. 🤷♀️
Anyway, I'm still working on that other plarn (plastic yarn) bag I think I mentioned in the e-mail. I did not finish the second one in time. I'm enjoying doing some colorwork on it (with different colored plastic bags, a couple green and some silver) and a couple skinny braids on the newer one. The bag is not half done yet, and I'm not even certain I have enough of the same types of bags, for the main color (by feel, texture, and elasticity, not necessarily from one store), in my possession to finish it yet, so it's a work in in progress.
I recently trolled your Ravelry favs, and noticed that Irish Cap; it looks so interesting.
The way you talk about being wishy-washy with hobbies reminds me of how I am with chores and tasks. I am learning recently that I need to make a plan to set aside time each day for each thing, and that scattered attention means scattered results. Perhaps, dedicating a specific day of the week to a specific hobby might be beneficial for you? But, it's not just a scheduling issue. We, as humans, need to change how we think about tasks and hobbies. We don't have to do something; we get to do something. So, sometimes excitement is the result of how we are thinking of it beforehand. Weren't you ever excited to vacuum?
Have a Happy Early Father's Day.
If you like that era for your reading outlet, try Sharon Kay Penman’s The Queen’s Man. It is set in the era of Eleanor of Aquitaine, a bit before Henry the VIII. I love her. She was quite a woman. (If you’ve ever seen Katherine Hepburn in The Lion in Winter, you’ll get a great idea of the kind of independent, intelligent, interesting character she was. Peter O’Toole plays her husband, King Henry II.) This series follows Justin de Quincy, the Queen’s private confidant, as he solves murders for Eleanor. Lots of period details, great characterization. I love to mess with watercolors. Two of my friends and I meet whenever we can to pick a “lesson” and have an art day. Glad you are feeling better. Such a bummer to be sick. Love the tote you made from your grandmother’s knit bag.
I too have a set of those wooden handles ! I made a crochet bag a 100 years ago lol
What yarn are you using I was thinking of using leftover sock yarn held double?
Just starting to watch you and really enjoying your podcast will go back to past podcasts to watch!
Thank you for watching Deborah! It’s great to have you here. The yarn I’m using for the bag is True Boo by Lion Brand and I’m pairing it with that tape yarn pulled from a thrifted sweater. It’s an overall Worsted weight. ❤️
Thanks for the info looking ahead a yarn with some structure would be a better idea like the acrylic yarn you mentioned !
I LOVE the cardigan you are wearing! was this handknit?
In the summers we have Viking re-enactment markets and at some point, suddenly, l get a sewing mojo! Usually at the last minute . . .
And then, every year, l start questioning why l don't sew clothing for myself for ordinary modern clothing . . .
When school starts again in the Autumn l will pack all the sewing up and my prep work for school will spill out over the big table again!
Tayler is there a brand of gwash and brushes that you would recommend? I saw your book mark on your newsletter and I have been thinking about trying painting for awhile. Thanks Julie
OMG. You need to stop showing us books!! Lol. My Amazon activity is being affected. Now I want to buy some watercolor books. Sigh. I bought True Colors after you showed it (it had been on my wish list for awhile) and I'm loving it!
Um, so did I do something wrong with my submission for the something old something new mak? I love joining in challenges and thought this a good one. I love prizes, but really joined in to be part of the community on here. I loved all the other submissions, but felt just a touch disappointed when my entry wasn't there. I did try to follow all that was expected, so please let me know how I managed to muck it up. No big deal, just wanted to know. Thanks. Always enjoy your podcasts and am glad you are feeling better. ❤ Oh, and BTW, I loved that series you are reading. I did find the last one in the series a bit heavy going with the history, still very readable, but it's a rather long read. 🎉
Hi Heather! The submissions I showed here were not the entire collection of submissions. I’ve shown additional submissions for the SOSN MAL in past videos from the previous weeks and i plan to show more in my next video. Due to the volume of submissions, I try to limit how many i show in any one video.
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS oh, thanks. That's great. 💜
I call my non-knitting hobbies “side quests” 😂
I love that!
Hobby ADHD!
Omg yes!!!
I’m just dying to know what the plant in the thumbnail is
