Might you share where you purchased your Knitting for Olive yarn. Thank you…love your podcasts!!!
such an enjoyable podcast!
Just found your channel. Thank you for sharing! Loved the Audrey jacket, do you know when the pattern will be available?
such a nice podcast ! i'm working on the Collette pullover
Thank you for another lovely episode. I think that green mohair is going to look amazing once it is knit up. I look forward to seeing what you choose 😊
Such a lovely episode as always. Would the Sunday sweater by petite knit be an idea for your mohair ? I think there’s a mohair held double option for that one. Also, thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Colette pullover – I got yarn for Christmas to make that one and I’ll be extra sure to gauge swatch and figure out the right size + needle size for that one ☺️
I love your storm sweater Jessica! Also the donut yarn with plumy purple in it is so, so pretty. I feel like that with the purple yarn you already have stashed would be cool for two color brioche as well! ♥️
Thank you for another inspiring episode🥰 I have been knitting on a weekend hat (petiteknit) with Sandnes Peer gynt scraps while watching😊 Looking forward to your next episode🧶
Thank you lovely ladies for another fabulous,inspirational podcast.I really enjoy watching you both.I have always been a monogamous knitter until this year and I have started having an easy scarf on the go with a sweater.Sometimes after work I am too tired to concentrate so this has been giving me a nice option as there is no shaping.Have a fabulous time at your retreat it sounds amazing 🤩 Looking forward to hearing about it.Happy knitting 🧶🌺
Love your videos Jessica and Rachael! Your sweaters are just so perfect! I am working on finishing up Parnell sweater by Berroco Design Team.
What are your preferred needles for socks? Looks like the ones you both showed use DPNs, I'm a beginner knitter and trying to decide if I want to do DPN, magic loop, or 9in cable for socks I want to cast on
When knitting horizontally, row gauge is important. My row gauge is always different than patterns and it changes the length of the garment and I’ve had to do a lot of math ahead of time. Just something to keep in mind to avoid disappointment. Great podcast!
Love watching you two – the inspiration is spot-on for me! Have you considered the Ulla Sweater by Gregoria Fibers? I was just looking at it today to use up some lace yarn. It's 3 strands of mohair.
What about Petite Knits Cloud sweater for your WAK mohair? Thats a casual sweater and has an open-ish fabric
I love the colour on you and I can picture it as the Cloud
That mohair yarn from We Are Knitters is beautiful, you should check out the Soufflé by Laura Penrose
Enjoyed your projects ❤ so lovely “chatting” with y’all
An absolutely lovely podcast as always!!!! I totally agree about knitting second socks but I never write down what I do for the first sock because I always think I'll remember (which I never do!) so second socks are sometimes hard 😅
love the honest reviews of patterns! is the peer gynt yarn itchy?
I absolutely loved this episode from you ladies! Such a beautiful and inspiring pieces I would love to make one day. I saw on Instagram that you were sewing some new garments and in your 2024 plans you mentioned that you would like to commit more towards sewing. I would be very interested in also seeing sewing content on your YouTube 🥰🌸
Totally inspired by your beautiful projects. Thanks so much for sharing. 🙂
Hello Jessica and Rachel! Y'alls projects look amazing as always. I really like y'all style your knits.
Maybe CamilleKnit's Up In The Clouds Sweater for the alpaca/mohair yarn? Thanks for another entertaining podcast, ladies!
For your double stranded mohair project I made the Mousseux by espace tricot… it’s free
I have heard of you saying you are a tight knitter. When I use fingerling and make socks, I use a U.S. 2 to get gauge because I am such a tight knitter. I am making my first sweater, the autumn league sweater and I am using 7 and 8 needle with sk because the dk with a 9 seemed like string on the needle. My gauge swatches were still smaller but I didn’t wet them and block them. Any advice would be appreciated
Another awesome video! Wonderful knits – finished, wips and plans!!
I am currently working on the Stepaside Sweater by Jennifer Beale. It is BY FAR the most interesting knitting pattern I have ever knit. It is yarn origami at its finest!! I have had to learn all over again the lesson of trusting the pattern!! 😅❤😂 I am using more muted colors than hers, with two natural alpaca yarns. My main color is from a medium gray alpaca and then the natural color is from a white alpaca. I am loving the yarn almost as much as the interesting knit! See y’all again soon!
I just finished my first throw over sweater bt Andre Mawry and loved the knit. I lovef it so much i found stash yarn for another and may cast it on tonight. Also working on the two colour version of the grain sweater. Getting through the yolk was a bit of a slog. Using Ask yarn and the stickiness made the k2tog and k5tog a challenge. I might try another 2 colour version just using 2 different yarns no mohair. Am also free styling a toque to go with the throwover, using yp leftover ysrn and the throwover chart.
Lovely podcast ladies,beautiful knits,I am currently working on the Arctic light sweater by Kutavakika,really enjoying it, but have had a bit of a break to use some stash up and made 12 hats for the homeless shelter in Warrington,Uk , nearest town to where I live. Look forward to seeing your baby knit 🧶 ❤x
Souffle sweater by Laura Penrose would work great for the mohair yarn!
You guys are adorable. Thank you for sharing all of your beautiful sweaters, socks and hats. You are amazing knitters. So beautiful. I really enjoy seeing what others are working on. This winter I did a beautiful Chunky Chenille Afghan for my Queen sized bed in Bernat Big yarn in vintage white. And it is so warm and cozy. I just love it. I also did a sky blue and vintage white, a 50' x 50" throw with several throw pillows. I made the Sunday Brunch Sweater by Kika which turned out amazing. And I'm working on another one. It's from the bottom up on straight needles with drop shoulders. I altered the sleeves to make them longer, because I didn't want 3/4 length for the winter. I'm knitting another one in pink and white. I also did about four different hats, three scarves, a two cowls and a couple of chunky chenille hats, which I don't like as well as Kika's chunky beanie style. I also designed one of my own cute artist type hats that sits to the side and I left a spot in the back to pull my braid through, so that turned out really cute. That's a lot. It's been fun and warm here in the Midwest with all of my projects. Thanks for sharing. (^Note: I was having a hard time hearing you guys at times with my volume all the way up.) Other than that, awesome job!:)
Thank you for another lovely episode! 🥰 A note on the olivegreen Sandnes Garn: The number under „Parti“ is the dye lot. „Farge“ means colour, so that’s the colour number/name. 😊
My first time watching you and I’m amazed at the amount and quality of your knitting! Beautiful choices. I would love to hear more about how you find time to knit so much! Looking forward to bingeing your back catalogue!
