Absolutely in love with the sweater you're wearing; the colours are a dream! I also don't like Italian bind-off; I've tried to because everyone else seems to love them, and it's never worked out for me. Glad to hear I'm not the only one.
I don't use any animal yarns, so always nice to hear the use of non-animal fibres. However, was sad to see the use of angora though, as it is such a cruel yarn to use. Please look it up yourself, but collecting it causes intense pain and suffering to the rabbits it comes from. Some try and say that it is only the natural moulting of the rabbits, but I think we all logically know that businesses are not going to wait for that and gently take bits and pieces that fall off, so they will strip the fur from the rabbits to get it. Just something to bear in mind before deciding to use angora again.
Anyway, great to see the things you've knitted and I look forward to future videos! ☺

Thank you so much for your comment! Thank you for letting me know about angora yarn!! I will look into that

The sweater you are wearing is so pretty!! The clours are lovely. How was knitting colourwork with cotton?

[@slow_knits]

Thank you!! I held the cotton strand with wool so it was that big of a noticeable difference
