      It was s refreshing to find a podcast that wasn’t about producing huge amounts of items every two weeks. I am cognitively challenged after 4 brain tumour operations, so knit slowly and enjoy both the process and the product. I love all the colours you have chosen - the blue in your wrap is stunning!

What kind of journal „bag“ are you using here in the beginning? I love all the pockets etc. I have been on the lookout for something like that. 😊 I wish you a wonderful new year with lots of cozy and creative hours with your journal. 🎉

    YT just suggested you to me and I'm so glad! Please, where do you get your sticker paper? I went on the Epson site because I have an Epson Ecotank, too, but they don't sell sticker paper. I was told you needed to use paper that's manufactured by the printer you buy,, that's why I looked there. Could you point me in the right direction? TIA

    • @hellorachelthefirst
      @hellorachelthefirst Před 7 měsíci

      I get it from amazon! They have different options at different price points, but even the cheapest one was pretty good. You definitely don't need to use Epson brand paper.

    ❤ so happy to see you again. I think your dog is bigger than a Westie, and yet in the snow day video, so reminded me of my friend Casper who was running around and having fun with the snow until last autumn. Bittersweet memories for sure. Anyways, if you are comfortable with reading ebooks and PDFs on a tablet or phone, then there’s loads of patterns available that way. Etsy and Ravelry (if it’s a comfortable place for you) are places to find independent published patterns, and then there’s also books for kindle and nook and others that have patterns too. I like that technology can be comfortable with taking the patterns with me without a ton of paper or whatever else. KnitCompanion is a app lots of folks love for charts too, though I have yet to use it. I have used pdf annotations readers (GoodNotes specifically) for highlighting sections and coloring the symbols on charts like I do with printed charts and color pencils. Anyways love to see BuJo and knitting and everything.

    Rachel, I've missed hearing your voice! Over the course of following you and listening to your videos, it feels like you have become a distant friend of mine who I check up on periodically. I think it's wonderful that you are considering making videos of sewing and knitting - and quite honestly I think you should do it if that is what YOU want to do. From my point of view, I'm here to listen to you and watch you do things you are passionate about. So I think it would be a lovely way to get to know you better. As for the teaching abroad, I think it's a lovely opportunity. Sending you all the good vibes as you continue to navigate career choices and your post-college adult life. :)

I have been substitute teaching in a 1st grade class and I’ve found them to be my favorite age group to teach! Beautiful journal like always.
