Thanks for the transcript! It’s nice to understand more of your podcast. I can’t believe how much knitting you get done in a week! Amazing! Everything is lovely.
Wow! You are so productive! I usually knit a couple of hours a night and 20 or so minutes each day, during my lunch, at work. The bulk of my knitting happens on the weekends, I’m an early riser (4am) so knitting is the perfect quiet activity. I really enjoyed this video! And I am SO looking forward to the release of your Lauder vest/sweater/cardigan patterns. Thank you so much for sharing and all of your lovely designs! Take care.
Thank you so much! This really drove home how much knitting you can get done in those times where you have a few spare minutes! Also wants me to be more organized so I have more free time after work!
Loved all your knits as well as colours. A cup of tea is a good way to knit for an extra hour any time. I like to carry a small flask too along with the cup.😅
Oh..I had to laugh..seeing you knitting with ear phones on..that's what I do everyday..and while I'm watching your podcast😂..I'm lucky enough to knit for a business at home so can knit for hours on end..😊Love, love your podcasts and knitting..❤
Just me watching on my wfh lunch break, while picking up stitches on the 2nd sleeve of my stick season. So that I have something to knit on during my meetings after lunch!
It had honestly never occured to me that knitting and reading was something i could do at the same time until you mentioned that you do it all the time with stockinette projects! I've tried it out this week and i am so happy! So thank you Rebecca. Love this vloggy video. The little snippet of you and Sam was super sweet
I'm so glad you like it! It's become one of my favourite ways to chill out. I'm not sure Sam knows I left that clip in but it was too cute, I couldn't bring myself to take it out.
What a fun podcast Rebecca! You are such a natural in front of the camera. Amazing you can knit and read a book. I love the cable vest! Thx for a view of your knitting/working room. Looking forward to the next podcast!
This was such a fun week to "spend with you," rather like a lovely holiday whilst still staying cosy on my sofa. Thanks for sharing your progress, and ~especially~ for making me feel better about how many project bags I have stuffed into corners & crevices - each one bursting with WIPs. I hope your "spend a week with your favourite designer" becomes a regular feature. On a side note, that flower motif on the bottom row of your swatch board *needs* to grow up to be a jumper (AKA pullover sweater.) ❤ I *NEED* it in my life! ❤
Ah this is SO lovely! I can promise you that I have yarn in almost every single room of our flat, and on more than one occasion I'll find a lone scrap on the bathroom floor. The floral motif is currently being knit up by some testers for a magazine pattern! It's not a sweater, but when I rerelease the pattern I will be adding a cardigan option.
Rebecca..I’ve not posted in awhile but…you made me literally laugh out loud when you were vacillating between casting on your new sweater or not during lunch…oh my, that smile you gave (27:59) when you made the decision….and the next scene..the winding of the YARN…rofl..I think we’ve all felt that way. I know I have…such a Cheshire Cat smile…” I know I have other things to do but……this makes me so happy” I love that yarn color btw….thanks for all you do and making me laugh at myself today.
Love what you can create in a week. Your patterns are amazing and love that you make so many samples, very inspiring! Looking forward to seeing your week as a knitwear designer. Yeah to a long sleeve Tolsta!❤
Thanks Rebecca, this was really interesting. Ripping back can be annoying but cathartic. Your patterns and yarn choices are lovely. That purple, ❤💜💜. I can’t wear mohair,itchy, itchy so use suri alpaca instead. It is lovely to knit with.
Such a fun video. Nice to see how you take 20 minutes here or there to get some knitting done. Amazing how much you can get done in a week! Would love to see your week in a life of a knitwear designer.
Thank you Rebecca! I love how you integrate life into your knitting. Can’t wait to see a week of a knitwear designer. One day could you take us for a walk to your knit night? Would love to see a slice of Edinburgh.
Fantastic video, I thought I was doing well with my knitting as I have finished 4 WIPs in January(1 sweater was on my needles for almost 2 yrs, 1 poncho, 1 vest and another short sleeved sweater that I cast on just before Christmas. Love your inspiration, and you are right I’m an Aberdonian and the weather makes you want to coorie in and knit
Hi Rebecca. Thanks for this, really enjoyed it and found it very interesting to see how much knitting you managed to fit in around your work and home life. I’m now longing for a bright pinky purple long sleeved Tolsta now that I have seen yours - even though I would never have picked such a vibrant colour before seeing your example 😊❤ Very much looking forward to ‘A Week in the Life of a Knitwear Designer’, and thank you for taking the time to vlog your knitting life x
What a fantastic podcast/vlog! It was so fun and interesting and I just loved it. Thanks for sharing your week with us. More more more of that please. I love your patterns too. i think I’ve bought every one of them. Have you considered maybe doing like an hour tutorial on one of your more intricate cable patterns from beginning to end? That would be so helpful for us newer garment knitters. Thanks again and see you next time.
Hello Rebecca! Super interesting to see what your knitting / living week look like. I'm curious to know at what time you go to the gym in the mornings? Will be interesting to see what your designing process is! Can't wait to watch! It's a good idea to have a way to know who's applying for your tests many times without having the chance to be chosen. Maybe my turn is coming ;-) I love your patterns so much! Bye!
Wow, you are amazing and what a lot of energy you have. I enjoy your podcasts. I’m looking forward to your next one. Also, I can’t wait for that vest pattern to be released.
I love that cascade yarn! It’s also crazy how fast you knit, and how much you can stay focused on at once. As always, I’m knitting while watching you knit! And as soon as you post a video apparently. Happy knitting!
Really enjoyed this more relaxed vloggy type of video! Really looking forward to your designer vlog as well! Very inspiring to see your knits and how you fit it into your life! 🤩
This was fantastic to watch 😊 Amazing that you can knit with not much light and also ready a book at the same time! I have been knitting on the Daft Days Shawl while watching 😊
Thanks so, so much for this video, it was so much fun to watch its so generous of you to take us inside your life in this way. It was really exciting to see your office with all the yarny goodness. Im deeply in LOVE with that cascade pink Tolsta you're knitting!! The colour is so gorgeous with your hair and colouring! I've made two three quarter sleeve Tolsta's, one in Kinross 4ply Seaweed and a striped one in Purl Soho Good Wool dk...I love them!!! You're are so inspiring Rebecca. I noticed a few times you mentioned that you'd knit for 20 or 30 mins here and there and I realise I wont knit unless I have a clear hour at least, so, Im rethinking 20 and 30 minutes. Love the Tides Sweater" you will be getting lots of hugs when you wear that!
I think you can get quite a lot done in 20 mins and I realised whilst filming this that they really add up. Often it's a 3 20min knitting breaks over a day that really end up adding up how much I end up getting through!
I really enjoyed watching your knitting week. I'm just spitting the body on my Daft Days cardigan and loving it. Now I'm lusting after that lovely cabled vest. Thank you for all these gorgeous designs (my bank balance is not so grateful 😆
loved this episode, your life seems to be measured in knitting chunks. interspersed with some work, sleep and eating. lol, Can't wait for that vest pattern to be released, it is the perfect combo of cables. Sounds like you need a database for your testing calls, 600 is an awful lot to go through manually.
I have the same big basket ! ❤ it holds many things .. usually what is going out ... Yarn I’m not going to use, puzzles or books , I’m passing on to someone new .. your knits are SO amazing ❤🧶💫 I’m always in awe 🥰
@@the.creabea Rebecca, I am curious what method you use to join your yarn in your sweaters, specifically the mohair. Casting on a cardigan held with mohair for my first time, and wonder about this. Thank you 😊
I like this format too! CAN NOT wait to see the purple long-sleeve tolsta in its full glory :) I did notice that since your voice is louder in some clips than others, and the music is consistently on the louder end, I did find myself toggling my volume back and forth. still watched to the end lol
I'm going to make that tolsta tee with long sleeves. Love that color. Hope you put the long sleeve add-on for the pattern. Did you find your favorite project bag??? I was hoping you'd discover it during the video and share. Great fun watching this.
I love this episode! It's a nice change from the regular podcasts. After all the Vlogmasses are over (I miss those), it's nice to see a vlog-style video again. Quick question: How do your colleagues react to your knitting during meetings? Do they notice it and ask what you're making? I still feel a bit embarrassed when I knit during a meeting or in public. Groetjes! Maaike
Lovely to see how you get so much done, I do love your vest pattern and am thinking I might to the v neck button up version when it's released. I am working on the Paloma top by Truly Myrtle in a merino linen blend. I love your purple tolsta
It’s so interesting to get an inside view of another’s week and thought process and progress mania. It helps it seems to me that you schedule everything. Imagine how much I could get done if I did that. What a concept! My husband’s plans everything; he’s an engineer. I’m so scattered. I change my mind when the wind blows. I’m amazed at how much you can get done in a week. Can I ask what kind of work you do you do other than knitware designing? I think you’ve said before but it’s not in my current memory, lol. When you say you don’t do this thats amazing too because you are such a natural. Thanks for doing this it’s a good lesson for me.
I'm a product manager for a tech start-up, so that's a very planning-heavy job too. I think that's probably spilled over into my knitting world and helped me become a better planner. That being said, sometimes the plans go completely to pot and that's okay too.
Loved this episode. I was knitting my Lanark Sweater right alongside you. It was also lovely to see your other half, well bits of him anyway. He was so sweet to you. Maybe he can be introduced to us in the future. Have you ever knit Jumpers for Sam?
Aww love to hear this! I think there is nothing he would hate more than sitting down in front of the camera, although he is a photographer by hobby so he is often behind it! He's never had a sweater, he's hat a few hats and a few pairs of socks but he's been vegan for about 18 months now and we've not quite landed on what he feels about wool. No rush to knit one for him now, I'm more than happy to knit a lot for myself.
Loved this episode. Very fun to see how you sprinkle your knitting throughout your day. Happily I do too so that made me feel normal LOL. Your next vlog sounds intriguing. I hope you do more.
Hi Rebecca, been following your podcast. Its fantastic how you juggle managed to knit so much in a week! Can't wait to see your finished sweaters. And yes lovely pink from Cascade ..what's the name of the color?❤❤❤
What are all the meetings about? 😊 It’s fun listening to someone else talking (basically) to themselves about their day. I do that constantly, and I don’t even have a podcast! And my dogs had to squeal right along with yours! 🐶🐶
A whole host of things! Usually projects we're running or clients we're meeting. They're quite varied. I realised that as soon as I carried the camera around with me I found myself talking nonsense at it a lot of the time. It was quite cathartic!
It's funny because last night I finished work and lay on the sofa for 4 hours because my brain was fried. So there is definitely a limit to the functioning!
@@angrytrees7519 I’m reading this as I’ve just finished work, want to wind my yarn but want to nap so I feel you. Might rest for half an hour and then try to wind and swatch.
It's not really but I love that thought path. It's inspired by a blue and white waistcoat I saw EVERYWHERE last summer. It's currently being developed for a magazine and should be out in April.
YES! The big debate in my head was whether to decrease or just do bell sleeves, so I've done what i usually do and we have options. I'm going to make the cardigan bell sleeved!
hi hi Rebecca, so nice to watch this. what a wonderful enjoyable video! i have some designs (lots maybe) but i don't know how to write a pattern really, i keep notes, and i don't know how to grade, are there resources you recommend to lear how to do these things?
Thanks for the video :) I love the cream (white?) jumper that you were wearing on a couple of days, please can you share what pattern it was? I'm jealous that you can knit so much during work - I have a lot of meetings too but I either have to facilitate (screen share) or take minutes so there is no way I could knit during them - maybe I need to get a different job 😅 x
It's not really a pattern, it's just a made up raglan, but the Tolsta would work well! It's a 16 stitch gauge and Tolsta is 17. it's drops lima and drops kidsilk mohair.
Loved this video. I can kinda look away when I'm knitting stockinette- but I don't know how you do it with cables! What's the name of the book you were reading? Always looking for recs.
Ohh I think I may have gotten through a few last week (I can demolish a rom-com book in a few hours). Forget Me Not by Julie Soto and The Graham Effect by Elle Kennedy
Thanks so much for your podcast. Amazing amount of knitting. Love the pink/ purple shade. What sweater were you wearing at the beginning of the podcast - the cream/white one and what yarn?

when i watch Rebecca, i adjust the playback speed to .75--it really helps 🙂

Thanks for the tip!
"Cables gaslight me" is such a good line 😂 I'll use that next time I'm fretting about blocking!
I just want to stop and block it every 10 rows
Wow! You are so productive! I usually knit a couple of hours a night and 20 or so minutes each day, during my lunch, at work. The bulk of my knitting happens on the weekends, I’m an early riser (4am) so knitting is the perfect quiet activity.

That purple yarn makes your face light up. Cant wait to see it finished. ❤
Loved that, looking forward to a week in the life of a knitwear designer. 😍
I'm enjoying filming it!

Great podcast and lots of beautiful projects. Looking forward to seeing more podcasts.
It’s so great to see your week in knitting - thanks for sharing.
Thank you! 😊
What a fun podcast Rebecca! You are such a natural in front of the camera. Amazing you can knit and read a book. I love the cable vest! Thx for a view of your knitting/working room. Looking forward to the next podcast!
Aww thank you so much!
So great to see all your cable knits and patterns! I live in a warm climate so don’t make many garments but I’m determined to make one of yours 💜
You are very lucky to be able to knit through your meetings - now I can understand how you get so much done. I never had a job where I could do that.
OMG I love your patterns! Especially the new cabled vest!
I usually do not enjoy vlogs but that was fun! Thanks for sharing your week!
Thanks for taking us into your life, Rebecca. You are a natural at this kind of thing. Much love ❤
Thank you so much!

Your schedule would tie my brain in knots. I cant believe you can get so much knitting and designing in. Beautiful stuff.
It's the same pretty much every week now so I think I'm just very used to it!
I love your podcast and can't wait until your patterns are available for the knits you showed.

Love the vlog style of this video…excited to see the “week of a knitwear designer”
It was very fun to watch, and that pinky purple color is going to look fab on you!
This was fun to watch, it was interesting to see how and where you fit knitting in. Looking forward to the designing episode too.
Love what you can create in a week. Your patterns are amazing and love that you make so many samples, very inspiring! Looking forward to seeing your week as a knitwear designer. Yeah to a long sleeve Tolsta!❤

I'm not at all drawn to bright colours but I'm really trying to get out of my colour comfort zone this year and knit up some more brights!
What a nice episode. Thank you. Looking forward to the 'documentary-episode'! I'm curious about your progress for all your projects 😊

What a sweet vlog! I enjoyed watching your accomplishments.😊
Great video! Loved watching a week of you knitting and designing ☺️
Thank you! 😊
Yay for the Tolsta sleeves! Just cast on a woolly one with the intention of adding long sleeves. Hoping to see yours!
Yay! Beautiful knitting! I cant wait for the patterns to com out!❤❤❤
Thank you! 😊

I'm New to your podcast, and I love it ❤️ very chill, and inspiring...and I look forward to the next 🤩👍

Brilliant podcast Rebecca really interesting too. You a very quick knitter too ,looking forward to next one too xx
Thank you so much!
love your knitting segments!
You’re great knitting company 😊 So funny you clarified that the dirty dishes weren’t sitting in the sink for weeks 😂
Looking forward to week in the life of a knitwear designer!
I really liked this video, and I think it was great how you filmed and did it!
Impressive...trying really hard not to feel bad about how slow I am...dealing with it😁
Very nice episode! I really like the vlog format, it is really amazing how much you knit in a week!
Glad you enjoy it! I enjoyed filming it way more than I expected to so will definitely do it again in the future

Like this form of content and as always your knits look beautiful 👌
Thank you! 😊
The B A S K E T-😂😂😂
Yes you have a lot of knit hours…and you are a very fast efficient knitter! Nice.
The basket is HUGE. But I love it too much to send it back for the smaller size.
Oooh I have yarn almost identical to that purple! I've been trying to decide what to make with it for my first sweater.
I'd recommend the Step by Step sweater by Knitted by Florence if you'll looking for a bit of support with a first sweater knit!
@@the.creabea That is cute! I'd use grey or neutrals for that design though. I'll figure it out soon. I'm glad I found your channel! You're so cool

I love a hockey romance. What book was it?
The purple yarn combo is a stunner!
I love the orchid color new raglan. I to knit a sweater in that color.

What are all the meetings about? 😊
It’s fun listening to someone else talking (basically) to themselves about their day. I do that constantly, and I don’t even have a podcast!
And my dogs had to squeal right along with yours! 🐶🐶
A whole host of things! Usually projects we're running or clients we're meeting. They're quite varied.
I realised that as soon as I carried the camera around with me I found myself talking nonsense at it a lot of the time. It was quite cathartic!
how fun! I'm making a long sleeve tolsta before you! Race ya to the end! lol
So, where do I find so much executive functioning? You're a knitting rockstar.
It's funny because last night I finished work and lay on the sofa for 4 hours because my brain was fried. So there is definitely a limit to the functioning!
@@the.creabea I understand that. I just feel like zoning out more often than I'd like when it's knitting time.
@@angrytrees7519 I’m reading this as I’ve just finished work, want to wind my yarn but want to nap so I feel you. Might rest for half an hour and then try to wind and swatch.
My library app keeps recommending the hockey romance book. Kight have to go take another look.
omg i love all the projects! i just found your channel. i have an unrelated question, i really love your accent, where is it from?
Is the blue and white swatch on your board inspired by Delft Blauw pottery? If so I can't wait for whatever pattern that'll be a part of!
It's not really but I love that thought path. It's inspired by a blue and white waistcoat I saw EVERYWHERE last summer. It's currently being developed for a magazine and should be out in April.
For your Tides Sweater, have you considered a slight bell sleeve? I also like the idea of a no decrease balloon sleeve.
YES! The big debate in my head was whether to decrease or just do bell sleeves, so I've done what i usually do and we have options. I'm going to make the cardigan bell sleeved!
hi hi Rebecca, so nice to watch this. what a wonderful enjoyable video! i have some designs (lots maybe) but i don't know how to write a pattern really, i keep notes, and i don't know how to grade, are there resources you recommend to lear how to do these things?
Sister Mountain is a great place to start!
Thanks for the video :) I love the cream (white?) jumper that you were wearing on a couple of days, please can you share what pattern it was? I'm jealous that you can knit so much during work - I have a lot of meetings too but I either have to facilitate (screen share) or take minutes so there is no way I could knit during them - maybe I need to get a different job 😅 x
It's not really a pattern, it's just a made up raglan, but the Tolsta would work well! It's a 16 stitch gauge and Tolsta is 17. it's drops lima and drops kidsilk mohair.
Love your ribbed hat, how many balls of Camarose Snefnug are you using?✨
Loved this video. I can kinda look away when I'm knitting stockinette- but I don't know how you do it with cables! What's the name of the book you were reading? Always looking for recs.
Ohh I think I may have gotten through a few last week (I can demolish a rom-com book in a few hours). Forget Me Not by Julie Soto and The Graham Effect by Elle Kennedy
Thanks so much for your podcast. Amazing amount of knitting. Love the pink/ purple shade. What sweater were you wearing at the beginning of the podcast - the cream/white one and what yarn?
It's just a basic raglan in drops mohair and drops lima! It's pretty close to a Tolsta but I never wrote the numbers down
Rebecca, cant you returned unused ball of yarn in same conditions as was shipped? A phone call usually help gets that moving along here in the States.
