    Thank you for the work you put into creating this fun list of projects! The Riviette tank is so pretty. I wondered if you thought it could be made in a different yarn that would give it more drape and be less boxy. Thanks again for an enjoyable show!

    Still waiting for the name of the yarn you have been talking about for 17 .minutes now. I hope you tell us. It's hard to get lots of the yarns used in the overseas podcasts in the United States which is very frustrating. I wish alternate suggestions were included for all the patterns featured.😢

Our Great Pyrenees puppy finally just turned 1 and I feel like we turned a corner in terms of behavior. They are adorable but so much work. lol

    Hi girl! I still can't believe that we're both making the Salty days sweater in the summer time, and at the same moment😂 it's just too good of a pattern to wait for the "right" weather to make isn't it? I definitely agree with you, I would have liked a lil bit more guidance for picking up stitches, since it's quite difficult to figure out, especially for the sleeves, and it takes a couple tries (or four or six in my case😅) But it's my one and only complaint about the pattern so far since it's a great design and very well explained in my opinion. I'm making mine in Drops Lima, in just the white color, but I made a rookie mistake with it😅 soooo after the midblock I left it flat to dry in the sunlight... well, the color faded (of course it did silly me!) and now the front is like a warm white, leaning almost beigey while the back is the original neutral white. Well it is what it is, and all I have to do now is finishing the sleeves and than washing and putting the sweater back under the sunlight, with the back facing up this time, hoping that the color will uniform (right now you can see the color difference quite clearly on the shoulders and it's not really nice 😅😅)

    • @themindfulcreators
      @themindfulcreators Před 16 dny

      Hahah it’s such a coincidence right 🤣 well for the sleeves I just heard that she apparently explains that in her salty days video. I completely forgot that she makes videos about most of her sweaters designs so I’ll have to look it up there. Haha oh nooo not the sun bleaching 😂 well I think indeed putting it in the sun the other way around will help. It definitely makes for a very unique sweater right 😂👍

      @alicemarchetti4340 Před 16 dny

      ​@@themindfulcreators I saw the video and it helped a bit but unfortunately I still had some problems figuring out how to pick up stitches, let's hope it'll be easier with my second sleeve! And yep, I'll have a one of a kind sweater for sure hahaha

    Kutova kika has a video in where she teaches how you should pick up stitches if it isn’t specified. It is really nice! I never struggle now anymore Also I hope your sleeves still fit if it is a smaller size then recommended. They are quite fitted normally already

    I agree with you about Dark Matter, the ending was a bit anticlimactic compared to the rest of the series. I so badly wanted to say that on your last podcast, but wanted to not give you my opinion before you watched it!! The word you were searching for is classifies. Douglas Adams is a bit of an acquired taste, I think. I love the Hitchhikers series, but understand it's not for everyone. Tonight I'm knitting a dishcloth because I have zero brain power, but hope to cast on for a Tolsta tank tomorrow or Monday.

      Ah right!! Thanks for not spoiling 😜 but yeah that was definitely the case especially compared to the rest of the season and to the buildup to that moment.

    Hi Fem! Lovely episode, your Barberoe top turned out AMAZING and making it with the undyed version of Lovely Linen was also a great idea cause you can always dye it a color you love later on (even though I think it's an adorable neutral as it is). All the summer tonals are so beautiful but I was in love with the buttery yellow, I know that it costed you quite a lot of troubles but let me tell you it was worth it in the end😍 (I know the preorder closed tonight, I really hope the collection went well, you're doing and amazing job here and you deserve it!)

      Thank you so so much for you super kind comment Alice ❤️ It really means a lot to me. Loss is hard, but sharing it with others definitely help. Guusje definitely helps to distract me too haha. She is a feisty little girl sometimes 😂 Thank you again for sympathizing with me ❤️ Your projects sound super fun!! The summer league just seems like a really great staple

    Als je niet weet welke kleur je graag wil voor je breiwerk, zou je een keer kunnen kijken naar kleuranalyse. Dan weet je een beetje in welke hoek je kan zoeken😊

    • @themindfulcreators
      @themindfulcreators Před měsícem

      Ik heb vorig jaar een kleur analyse gehad maar heb niet helemaal t gevoel dat wat daar uit kwam echt mijn kleuren zijn. Dit was een kleur analyse met een klein groepje, niet helemaal 1 op 1. Daar kwam een soft autumn uit. Zeker sommige kleuren van dat pallet passen maar soms heb ik t idee dat ik meer naar een true of deep autumn neig of zelfs een winter. Tis een beetje moeilijk te bepalen of ik nu een warme of koele ondertoon heb haha

    Oh, I can't wait to get this merino/linen yarn, I love how the colour came out! About the Elisabeth blouse - I think that deep pinkish red would suit you very well - something like cranberry red maybe, with a hint of pink?

    • @themindfulcreators
      @themindfulcreators Před měsícem

      Oeh a cranberry red would indeed be nice!! And the yarn is coming your way 🥰 I’ll be sending out a bunch or orders today!!

    My Anker summer top is in bamboo as well. I did a crochet cast on, but you can also slip stitch around the neckline and that helps keep it from stretching. I’ve done that with another top and it worked great.

    • @themindfulcreators
      @themindfulcreators Před měsícem

      Thank you so much for the tip! By now I’ve haven’t put in an elastic but I did wash it in the washing machine which helped quite a bit with the width and neckline stretch. Just temporarily tho, if I wear it a few times it stretches back haha

    For the Elisabeth - a lovely autumn/brick red (a few shades lighter OR darker than your hair, just as long as there is enough contrast between the blouse and your hair!) or a deep plum. 😍 It's hard to tell if your skin tone is warm/neutral/cool in this video (the lighting is not natural so it's hard to tell?) but I think you should lean more towards neutral, whichever color you end up choosing!

    • @themindfulcreators
      @themindfulcreators Před 2 měsíci

      Thank you so much for these tips!! I think that will be really nice indeed. Honestly, I’m not sure what undertone my skin is. One day I think I’m warm toned and the other day more cool toned. Maybe there is something in between? Haha. I think a more neutral color for that specific sweater would be really nice indeed!

    Out of curiosity, do you ever do samples sales? I would love to buy one off skeins that are dye tests or something similar as I make a lot of baby / childrens items, I don't always need adult sweater quantity but it's so fun to have something unique and beautiful :)

    • @themindfulcreators
      @themindfulcreators Před 2 měsíci

      Hi there! I do 😄 from time to time I put up one of a kind skeins, I think I have one of those colors left right now. However I also regularly keep oopsie sales, around every four month. I will then sell oopsie skeins with a discount but also upload what I have left over of the skeins I swatch collection colors with. Those skeins have most of the times around 80grams of yarn left on them 😄 I’m not sure when that sale will be again but I update over on Instagram when those things happen 😄❤️

    Your tolsta tee is beautiful, I love the colors! It reminds me of seashells! I also have a preference for more snug necklines, the wider ones show my bra straps and slide around and totally bug me. I have had good success with adding in some elastic to my necklines to bring them up higher, it is very quick and easy to do. Hugs to you, the loss of a pet is one of the most painful experiences. He sounds like a very well loved and special little soul.

    • @themindfulcreators
      @themindfulcreators Před 2 měsíci

      Ah thank you so much! It does look like it right? I might just have try it again with this one. I find it a lot easier with double folded necklines, however this is a single one

    Hey Fem, I also have pain in my wrists and hand while knitting (too much) sadly, so you are not alone! for the last year and a half I had not knitted at all.. even picking up my phone was too hard :( Now it's much better and I can knit bit by bit now, but yeah it is really frustrating so just wanted to tell you because it's not weird at all! Even some older ladies in the train told be before I got that, that I should be careful with knitting too much ;)🥰

    • @themindfulcreators
      @themindfulcreators Před 2 měsíci

      Oh my I can imagine that has been really hard ❤️❤️❤️ I hope it will stay away now. It’s definitely a good reminder to not keep going when it’s starting to hurt. Thank you for sharing your story with me ❤️
