Hello & Welcome | A test knit, birthday sweater Brooklyn Tweed yarn | Knitting Podcast Ep. 1
Thank you for sharing! I am a new sock knitting enthusiast and as a 7-7.5 shoe size, I wonder how many stitches do you cast on for Summer Lee basic socks?
Love your tour as I sit knitting at home!❤
Found you and have watched all your videos. Love your toy designs! Looking forward to seeing more of your projects.
I love the German Twisted cast on for my top down socks. I do two at a time, but consecutively on two separate needles.
Beautiful!!
I have no idea if anyone still reads the comments after 9 months, but we have Selfmade (formerly Stoff&Stil) here in Germany as well! They are primarily a fabric store.
Hope you post more videos- really enjoy your podcasts and seeing your projects.
Love that yarn!!!I had a sweater in a tan color and miss it.
It came out great! I’m so intimidated by the double knitted band
I used to feel the same way until I watched Handmade by Florence's recent video of her Step by Step cardigan tutorial. She also uses this Noro yarn 😀She makes it very easy to understand how to do the double knit button band.
I prefer yarn tours and talking about what yarn people have than just yarn hauls.. these are so much fun
Love your project bag, can you please share the pattern you use? like how to get the bottom and the strings done? thank you
So nice to see you again and to hear you sharing about your creativity! Cheers. ❤
Thank you so much!
Your pattern and yarn choices are always so beautiful! I’m so happy to see you back! I was keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Your critters are all so adorable! The moose is incredible and his CLOTHES!❤ I can’t wait to see more!!! Take care of yourself!
Great knitting ❤love the sheep 🐑 thanks for the podcast
beautiful sweater in neutral warm color for us blonds, lol, hopefully you will finish it and wear it, go with your inner self, not what a book says, they come and go,
hi, where did you order your logo tags for your husbands hats? thank you
Hi there, i love your sweater No 11 so cute, hey what do you think the difference is between her Sweater No 25? and the 11? just thinking about if I have to buy another pattern? lol thank you your dog is so adorable
love your projects
I like ur yarn storage ! That is great that u found a shelf that the bins fit in !
Thank you! 😊
Loved your Ozetta cardigan on you. Looks so professionally knit and just gorgeous. Amazing colour choice for the Marseille too….loved your mods…..just “made” the sweater I think 🥰👍🏼
Thank you so much! 😊 they are both such great patterns!
I just love the knitted animals, they are all so cute! Your garments look really great too, lovely patterns.
Agreed, the designs are great! Thanks for tuning in ❤️
Love your sheep and your moose is great. I don't crochet well, so knitting critters works best for me, I love the designs by Claire Garland, they are small but so cute, right now I'm in the process of making the "Emotional Support Chicken" I find it a great break from making garments.
I’ve seen that chicken pattern and think I need one too! Knitted animals are the best 😊
Hello Svenja, I came across your podcast by chance and I’m glad I did! I dig in your timeless yet contemporary style, those staples knits in neutral, toned down colors… I’m French so I’ll keep note of the Faroese wool you ordered here to pair with mohair for your jacket: you certainly were able to convey the perfect feel of the combo! I love miniature stuff and I am charmed by your little knitted stuffed animals, please continue sharing! As I’ve never knitted small circumferences, I’d be super interested if you would share the tools and techniques you used. Looking forward to the next episode, kind regards, Marie (Bordeaux).
Hi! Thanks so much for watching and leaving a nice comment ☺️ so glad you like my knitting and overall style! Not sure where you are located, but the shop I ordered from is Laine des Îles. Highly recommend!
@@svenjaknits Yup, they’re located in Brittany, so further up north from where Bordeaux is (Southwest of France, world-renowned for its vineyards). I’ll still have to order but shipping expenses should be reasonable, just like the price of this yarn so thank you for the finding (the yarn + the niche on-line shop)! I wonder how you ever came across with it as Snaeldan is such a confidential brand? Anyways, cheers to you🍷☺️
🤩🤩🤩
I've been looking for a knitting vlogger who does stuffed animals along with typical knits, yay! Your sweaters are lovely, the sheep are adorable, and that moose 😍 I grew up traveling with my dad in the airforce and we were stationed in Alaska for 3 years. Your little moose friend instantly brought me back to that childhood 🥰 Thank you for sharing!
Oh that is so sweet!! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment ❤️
My favorite stuffy animal is your bunny! Can’t wait to see how you dress her up!😊
❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
I'm obsessed with that little moose!!
Me too ☺️ I just made him a pair of glasses and he just got 10x cuter
You have been missed! So great to see you today! Love the amigurumi! I think I spelled it correctly 😊
Aww thanks!! Yes amigurumi (I think 😅)…although does that term refer to mostly crochet toys?
I got this same yarn after watching this video of yours because your sweater was so beautiful. It’s been years since I knitted a sweater and I’m really having a problem with the instructions on this cardigan. So I was wondering if you could help me. The only other option I have is to pay $35 an hour And make an appointment for a local yarn shop where I did not buy the yarn. After the cast on, are you supposed to knit a row in order to place the markers? Then for row one, where it says turn, are you supposed to do something there besides just turn? Like are you supposed to take one more stitch then turn, then pull the yarn into the back to make a double stitch? I am totally stuck. Appreciate any help anyone can give me.
I’m happy to help troubleshoot your question…would you mind emailing me your question at svenjaknits@gmail.com ? Will be easier to respond there, thanks!
Glad to see you back! I really love your two sheeps❤ I have a question for you as regards mohair. You said using Knitting for Olive mohair with another yarn was a good combination. So far I only used knit picks mohair for my weekend v-neck slipover along with Wool of the Andes and it shreds so much. It's everywhere around me, on my desk at the office... from your experience, would you say that Knitting for Olive mohair shreds less?
Absolutely. I have had no issues with KFO mohair and shedding, definitely worth a try if you like mohair!
@@svenjaknits Nice ! I will order some!
would love to knit that moose and bunny up if you ever feel inspired to create a pattern , thank you for sharing!
Maybe one day! I’m not a pattern designer but will think about it! Thanks for watching 😊
All your knits are gorgeous, and those stuffed animals are adorable. Anytime you get to share your work is perfect, don't stress yourself with a schedule.
Thank you! Will do ❤️
Enjoyed this episode very much. Thanks for sharing 💕love all the socks and bags💕💕
I’m so happy your podcast popped up in my feed. Your makes are beautiful. Love all the animals 💕💕💕
Thank you so much!
Lovely to see you again. Your sweaters are beautiful and I love your cardigan xx
Thank you and thanks for tuning in ❤️
I have just bought the lamb pattern as I am watching this podcast. It´s super cute! Thanks a lot for the inspiration ❤
Hope you enjoy it, it’s such a sweet pattern!
I just wanted to mention a cabled pattern that I made for my granddaughter (in Ravelry). Baby’s Aran Jacket by Paton’s. Beautiful result…much bigger size than I expected (age 2 of 3 instead of 12 months)…a bit of a pain to piece together but ends up with a lot of structure.
I’ve seen that pattern, thanks for sharing your insight!!
Lovely episode as always. Thank you!
Have you tried unseeing the color and try knitting it down instead of sewing it. Might have a bit more give. Just a thought❤
Great idea! 😊
Omg I’m from Maine too! We sure did get blasted by that storm, but it was perfect knitting weather :)
Yes it was! Ready for spring though 😊
Nice to see you! Love love the knitted animals. I love knitting them though I have a difficultly as they are fiddly and mine don’t look as nice Love mr moose and his clothes are adorable!!! Love to see him in them!!!😊
Thank you so much! Knitted animal friends are a lot of fun 😀
The sheep 🥹
👍
Love your knits. And that dear sheep in background.
Love your sweaters and so great to see you again. Your stuffy animals are so precious!!!! Happy Knitting 🧶
I learned how to knit using the Portuguese method and WOW is purling so easy, even easier than knitting using that method. Sometimes I will turn a project inside out in order to do more purling because it is so easy using Portuguese. I would recommend for anyone to give it a try. The only disadvantage I see is that I have to be a little bit careful when doing any lace work because Portuguese is really great for sock knitting as it makes it super easy to knit tight. You can take advantage of the natural tension created by how you hold the yarn. However, once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy to release tension while doing lace work. I have nearly forgotten how to do continental and English style because once I tried Portuguese that was it for me. And I had been a knitter for many years when I switched, so even for someone who has been knitting a certain way, like I had, and become second nature, I still recommend giving it a try just to see how you might like it. I got hooked almost instantly. I love this sweater and very much enjoying watching this vlog. The yarn is absolutely gorgeous! And your knitting work is beautiful as well.
Interesting, I'll have to check this out! Thanks for sharing.
Good to see you back! Those animals are adorable🥰
SHEEEP!!!!! So cute!
