My husband's grandma brought a ton of "been in a box in the closet for a long time" yarn up to us that smelled old but still looked fine. Thank you so much for this video!

Thank You. Love from Ontario, Canada ❤❤❤

This is gorgeous! A perfect bodice for a toddler dress.

thank you very much for this video, i m not sure if i understood , if we never cut yarn?

Actual advice at 5 30.

This video is so helpful thank you!! I have a question tho, how much vinegar should I add to the tub to help with the smell?

This was so helpful. Thank you so much. I bought a bunch of yarn and it smelled. I couldn’t even describe the smell. All gone now. I had to buy a few things but that’s okay. I got a great deal. ❤

So so pretty!! Has a rustic look. 5⭐ project that makes up quickly. And a great way to utilize scrap yarn too! 💜

Great tutorial, thanks.

Good skill to know!!

Wow- I need to pull out my new kitchen scale and put it to use! Thanks

Could not hear what u were saying volume safe

Thanks so much for this information. This is applicable across the creative crafting community. I have recently become aware of these realities and it has changed how I purchase patterns. I refuse to purchase or even acquire patterns that violate copyright laws-even though I am on a limited income. There are more than enough patterns offered for free by the original designers to keep me busy. If I choose to buy a pattern, I now make sure that it doesn’t violate copyright laws and hurt the original designer.

Thank you so much 😊

Oh my goodness! Suzi, this is wonderful- thank you for sharing this adventure! Confession- I haven't knitted in years, but I want to get back into it. I've also never knitted socks, but have always wanted to... and currently a lot of my higher end store bought wool blend socks with thick padded soles and heels are finally starting wear out after many years of enjoyment. So this is a sign I should go on an adventure of my own and start learning! If I start now, hopefully I'll have some toasty tootsies enjoying some hand knitted socks for the autumn months! Or crochet, which I would also be interested in trying for socks! Just subscribed to your channel and I'll gradually check out more of your videos. Thanks again, and God bless you! Fawn 😊

Hi, could you please tell me what that lovely multi coloured wool is and if it’s still available? Thanks 😊

Thanks 👍👍

Oh, this is fantastic! I have got to try this. Thank you for a very clear tutorial.

How many stitches in the foundation row??????

Larger needles. Larger thread. Dark thread or Dark background. Shut the window.

Gosh I wish I'd watched this before my last project. It was only when I was blocking it that I noticed that the different dye lot was not only a slightly different shade, but also a different thickness!!. Now I do check the dye lots really carefully, but, armed with your tips, I have more purchasing freedom, if needed. Thank you

This is GENIUS.

thank you! this is super helpful for dealing with thrifted yarn

Thank you so much for this tutorial ! My grandma recently gave me a whole chest of yarn and it definitely need a could washing 🧼🧽 Very excited about starting new projects!

I wonder if you did two yarn overs and knit the stitch. Then on the return row knit all three together . Would that give the same effect .

Oh wow!!! I love this! I have tried so many methods to add durability. This is so much simpler. Thank you!

I don't have an option to dry outside - other than things getting wet/mess etc...ok to dry inside?

Thank you sm for making this tutorial!!

I do the magic loop two at a time toe up socks all the time, but I think I am going to try it with two sixteen inch needles and do the padded bottom which I think is a such a clever idea!!! I hope you will follow up on this and tell us how it feels wearing it and show the whole sock when it is completed. Will be following you❤

I use mohair silk : cut a piece long enough to knit across the sole plus one inch then double it. Fold in half, and loop it over your needle , Knit one strand with your sock yarn across the sole sts leaving the remaining half of the length ready to be picked up on the next round. When r2 is complete, knot the mohair ends together , or just leave them there, they dont come out. Alize make a mohair with nylon at about 3. 3€ for 50 g. Drops make a mohair silk for 3.5 to 4.7 euros for 25g. Not much is needed for the ball and heel and it gives a lot of strength and warm luxury to your socks without bulking out your shoes. Mohair is strong, silk is strong, nylon is strong.

Very well done,this adjustng to the width of the foot but may I ask: are all you knitters suffering from halux toes?. My socks are either left or right, the big toes are not that angled and my right and my left foot are not exactly of equal length

This is so clever! Thank you for sharing! My husband likes a really cushy-soled sock, and this looks pretty foolproof. I'm excited to try it!

This is what I was looking for. Thank you. ❤

Thank you so much for this video. I was worried about putting my skeins in the washer and your video came up in my feed after searching. Your method worked perfectly and my yarn is drying even as we speak.

I think it is great that you have raised this. I did a video on my first time crocheting a few months ago and I made sure to credit the people's videos that I had used when learning. As a community, the crafting community seems to be one that people take advantage of as there are so many scams out there. Well done for raising this issue.

Vodka. Vodka takes out all kinds of strong smells (cigarettes and body odor) It evaporates quickly without a residual odor. Not as inexpensive as white vinegar but an option for that final drying spritz if needed

Thanks!

Thank you! Finally found a project for some old stash yarn and now I am confident I can use it

The very first thing I do with “old” yarn is check it’s strength (by breaking a bit off). It’s important to check integrity first!

My grandma gave me her yarn It’s very pretty but her cats jumped in it and now theirs cat hair I don’t want to ruin it so what’s an easy way when I don’t have all the machines and all that

I love the pattern and the colorful yarn! so beautiful

Hi Thank you for this video. I was just wondering if I made the 2 fronts of the cardigan first using self striping yarn and ensuring that I started at the same point in the yarn so the front stripes matched, would I then be able to make the back by using 2 skeins of yarn. So start with one and complete 2 rows ( starting at the same point in the yarn stripe pattern as for the fronts) then add in a second skein (again starting at the same point in the stripe pattern) complete 2 rows with the new skein. Then instead of cutting the yarn carry it up the side. This would effectively give you double the amount of yarn in each stripe colour which in theory would make the stripes the same width as the front. Do you think this could possibly work X

A few years ago, I had severely injured my wrist from knitting on end for hours. It started out as tendonitis. Because I kept ignoring the pain it ended up being tendinitis. I had to do physical therapy for a month and a brace for three months with no finger movement. Drove me crazy for weeks that I couldn't knit. And I recently started knitting again and I occasionally get flare up and I have learned to stop when the pain hits and wear an over the counter brace until the flare up ends. Which takes about a week. And I recently discovered I have early on set arthritis which complicates the flare up.

How did the socks work out for wearing in your hiking boots, and did they/are they wearing out?

What can be done if the colour is bleading ?

I assume needle size is relevent according to what you are using. I am going to try a scarf first. I love this!

Loved the dental floss idea.

II have a question I printed out pattern so happy to get it but your instructions for increase rows say use N1 then N2 but in your video it's the opposite Which is it ?? ???

I am looking for written pattern for Audrey hooded scarf .The PDF has been taken down appreciate any help Thank you
