    Literally cannot wait for a pattern for that blouse! 🎉 I think it might be the best hand knitted garment I’ve ever seen 😍

      @@starcrossedknits I save and love all of your patterns but I definitely think this one is just so special 😭 it’s so impressive I love everything about it and can’t wait to cast one on! I think I’ll do the same as you in black and then a second one in a chocolate brown would also be amazing… 😍

      thank you so much 😭 i know im biased but i think the black is really perfect for this top, it really makes the lace pop!!! dark brown could be so cute too!@@462mars

    I love all your designs! Can't wait to see more. You should call that v neck vest the "Varsity Vest"! And your lace top could be something like "Butterfly Garden" since the lace looks like butterflies.

      omg varsity vest is brilliant!!!! and butterfly garden is pretty too, i honestly didn't notice the mesh lace stitch looked like butterflies until everyone else said it on instagram but it's so true!

    Really excited for the release of the lace top! The name its giving me is Maeve or Maven because its kind of fierce yet reserved

    I use sock projects the same way. I live in Florida, o I dont really "need" wool socks, but I love having a quick project I can easily grab and take with me or just work on between bigger projects for something more mindless. I try to always have a sock on the needles to fill in those gaps and to use the cute single skeins of yarn I love but wouldn't necessarily wear in a top or something. They work very well for all those things.

      so true, i feel like it gives you a great reason to buy fun yarn without much planning!

    I saw your black lacy top on Reddit first and immediately favorited it on Ravelry! Didn't know you also have a CZcams channel!

    Hey, what kind of chair do you knit in? I am having some pain when I’m knitting and looking for a good chair to knit in and yours looks really comfortable. Do you know what kind it is?

    • @starcrossedknits
      @starcrossedknits  Před 11 měsíci +1

      ah that sucks, what kind of pain are you having? this is a vintage eames replica i got on facebook marketplace (the real ones are $$$ unfortunately!!) - tbh i don't knit in this chair super often, i'm usually on the couch or an ikea poang chair! i definitely think neck and arm support are important though, you can use pillows to prop your elbows up on the couch if you don't have arm rests on both sides for instance. i also get up pretty frequently to stretch and take breaks!
