My favorite time of day is dawn or dusk. I'm not a morning person at all, but I love the sunrise and sunset, the quiet, the birds and other animals stirring, the calm and peace. So many chances for beauty and serenity during the day!
My favorite time of day is dawn... the adorable sounds of little birds just waking up for the day!
I'm not a morning person. That said, I truly enjoy getting up before everyone else and enjoying the quite beginning of the morning. I will sit with a cup of coffee and watch the sun finish rising, enjoying the beautiful colors that never stop changing. After that, I feel like I can begin my day. 🙂
I was thinking the exact same thing!
I'm a fan of sunsets. I love the peaceful feel that I've finished the hard part of my day. I always said "if God had wanted me to see the sunrise he would have made it later in the day". I worked night shift in the hospital for 10 years-so I could glimpse sunrise before my shift was over.
Not exactly a time of day, but I love waking up to the rain. Being a water sign, something about the sound and feeling of being surrounded by rain always brings me a sense of calm when I wake up, which is always a good feeling and amazing way to start the day.
I've always loved the night time, after midnight when everyone is asleep and there's no traffic noise. It's the most peaceful part of the day
My favorite time of day is right after lunch when my coworker and I take a walk. I just loves our talks and the fresh air!
I think morning is very special when the sun is just rising in the east and the mountains to the west turn bright pink, then peach and finally gold. The mountains glow. What a wonderful way to start the day.
My favorite time of day has always been the early morning hours. I love to look out the window here in northwestern Wyoming and relish in the beautiful nature that surrounds me. I sit with my coffee, and truly enjoy the quiet, mostly alone time, at this early hour. I embrace the day, with gratefulness, and reflect on the many opportunities for exploration of this wonderful world.
My favorite time of day is the morning. I retired a few years ago and no longer have to jump up in the mornings to get ready for work. I enjoy taking time for myself in the morning to gently wake up and start the day.
My favorite time is in the morning when the sun is starting to rise and the sky is filled with pinks and oranges. It’s just so beautiful.
Hi, Sunshine!!! My favorite time of day is the really early morning right after I wake up. I get a hot cup of coffee & go sit on the front porch in my rocker & watch the sun coming up & the birds begin to wake & sing. Thank you, Chandi, for this wonderful tutorial!!!
I love the early mornings when the sun is just rising and the world is just starting to wake up. 🌇
Night owl here! When everyone is settling down for the night (including my four dogs), I can relax and enjoy the peace and quiet while I knit or crochet.
My favorite part of the day is sunrise it’s so magical to see. How the rays of the sun shine . Is another chance a new beginning.
I love both dawn and dusk. At the break of day I’m grateful for another beginning and wonder what this day will bring. At the close of day it’s a quiet peaceful time to reflect on the joys and blessings of that day.
I love mornings best. No one else up. Birds chirping. The world just coming awake. So calm and relaxing.
I’m a morning person but my favorite time of day is in the afternoon taking care of my garden and watering my trees when the droplets 💧 of water in the plants catches the changing light just so, they look like diamonds 💎. Thank you Chandi for another beautiful pattern it is gorgeous. Good luck everyone.
Beautiful yarn and pattern! My most favorite time of day is before sunrise and as the sun rises. I've never been a morning person, but after having children, i must get up before them to ready myself for the day. Early mornings have become coffee and prayer time, readying me for the day ahead! Some mornings, if time allows, I also love going out to the garden in the early morning, checking on the plants, cutting flowers, and harvesting goodies for the day 🩷💚
I love early, just after sunrise, before everyone else has woken up, when it's just you, the birdsong, and the rising sun. Magical time ❤
I find both sunset and sunrise quite special. Living in the desert, the dust that is constantly in the air gives both sunset and sunrise an incredible canvas of shapes and colors that is simply spectacular. Mesmerizing! 🤩
I've never been a morning person, all my life I've felt more energy as the day goes on - and that means more brain activity too. Last year I was diagnosed with ptsd and as I've gone through my past and started to heal, I've gained such an appreciation for the morning. Its still so hard for me to get out of bed early but I'm growing and trying it out! When the 9am sun shines into my apartment it fills me with such peace and hope for the day ❤ in the afternoon I love being outside until the sun sets bc I just want to drink up the rest of the shining day! In all I think the afternoon is my favorite time of day right now! ☀️
Aww, thank you for sharing! 💚
my favorite time of day is sunset. Watching it over the ocean at San Diego with all the beautiful colors of the clouds and reflection of the sun glistening off the water, the peacefulness of listening to the ocean and watching the sun set. Sadly I live in NH and usually only get to watch this about one trip a year, but looking at my pictures, they always bring the sunsets back to me. Some of these colors remind me of the sunsets. thank you for bringing blossom fingering back even if for a short period of time.
I love the mornings but now I really look forward the evening when I’m done with whatever I need to do and enjoy myself knitting or crocheting. Nothing is more relaxing.
Waking every morning is a blessing and to be enjoyed for all the new chances we have day.
I became a morning person through necessity. Now retired, I no longer need to get up at the break of day in order to get to work, but when I wake naturally at that time, I love to watch the sun make its way onto the world.
I have to say that I am usually a night owl, but I had the gift of an apartment with a view of the city at one time and I could watch both sunset and sunrise and adored both. My favorite was one thanksgiving morning the sky started with these deep purples and highlighted by bright pinks. I literally felt like the sky was a painting in a storybook it was so surreal.
The colors of this shawl are so perfect. I also like the length and the flow. It also gives a feel of walking on the beach, super nice for someone living in the desert. That feel of water and freshness would be super welcomed
Over my life, my favorite time of day has changed. I was never a morning person when I was young. After having my children, early morning has become my favorite time. I enjoy the peace and quiet when everyone else is still sleeping and watching the light as it crests the horizon. The early morning is peaceful. I love the new shawl pattern! The choice of colors is amazing!
Good morning Chandi
I Love the early morning sunrise!
I have a high bay window in my sitting area facing the east. Every morning I open the curtains to watch the sun rise slowly as it warms lighten the room where I’m sitting while crouching and drinking my coffee.
I love how it fill my heart with warmth and lifts me up to begin my day. 🙏🏼🤗
A cup of coffee and quietly watching the hummingbirds is my way of starting my spring-fall mornings. I can see the sunrise through my bedrooom window and love the changing colors and beginning of the day. Happy FriYay. The shawl is magical!
Firstly what a lovely shawl this is. I would say my favourite time of the day is in the morning. When everyone else is still in bed and I am sat down having my first cup of tea of the day, watching the birds in the garden flying about. Watching the sunrise and the sky changing colour from pinks to nice shades of blue.
I get up early every morning,it's the best time of day when it's quite and all you hear is the birds and if your blessed you can see squirrels and deer in the woods behind the house
My favorite time of day is getting off work to head home and spend time with my daughter.
I'm definitely a "night owl" . . . I love the peace and quiet I get after everyone else is asleep 🥰
Good morning Chandi, thank you for sharing this beautiful pattern with us. I am absolutely a morning person. Love the quiet time, having a cup of coffee and watching the sunrise. I enjoy it more now that I am retired. When I was working I would sometimes stop driving and pull to the side of the road just to admire the sunrise. Sunrise, Sunset…..Love the world we live in. Feeling Blessed. Have a wonderful day. ☀️🌜
My favorite time of day is early morning when it is peaceful and quiet. I love listening to the birds and watching the sun come up.
I love the beginning of day when the world seems fresh and full of possibility!
I just love the quiet tranquility of the night, with it's shining stars and glowing moon to keep me company after everyone's gone to sleep
I like mornings right before the sun comes up. I love to hear the birds singing. It is so peaceful at this time of day.😊
My favorite time of day is morning. I love listening to the birds sing!
I love the quiet mornings when it’s not too hot here in Florida and I can open up my windows and get fresh morning air. Listening to the birds.
I love early in the morning, when the deer are out and I can watch them as I drink my coffee.
The quiet start of a new day is my absolute favorite, with just the sounds of nature as I walk outside to catch a glimpse of the sun rising and creating a magical splash of color❤
I love the mornings. The sun is just coming up and the birds are singing. Giving thanks for another day.
I love sunsets, especially when the sky is full of purple and pink clouds
My favourite time of day is when the work is done and I can finally pick up my crochet project again 😄
I am definitely a morning person. I like to watch the sun come up and plan my day with a nice cup of coffee.
I enjoy late evening, past midnight when it feels like everyone is sleeping. It’s peaceful.
The time sun is long gone but the sky is still a tiny bit higher to see the insects buzz, the birds sing their song and you can be outside. I love that dark blue colour, the cooler temperatures. The colour gradient of the shawl is beautiful
When I wake up in the morning it is quiet and the birds are singing. That is my favourite time of day. Have a good day!
I love the peace and calm of the early dawn beauty as the sun rises. I also love the quieting down of the world as the beauty of the sunsets unfold. I taught my children, as we watched in wonder each sunrise and sunset, that is God telling us HE loves us. TWIICE each day HE shows us how much HE loves us with each splendid, unique day of beauty! I'd whisper in their ear, as we nuggled together watching, "Brandon, I love you. Brian, I love you. Bonnie, I love you!" And then we would marvel at how much HE loves us by giving us such a gorgeous show and display of HIS GRANDEUR! We still do that today, with the grandbabies. It melts my heart how my Bonnie has carried on the tradition, and now my baby King James (5) and Love Joy (2) also delight in HIS GLORY AND LOVE AND CREATION! ❤🩹💜💙❤💗💝
Love getting up before the world gets going and watch the sunrise with a cup of coffee
Golden hour is probably my favorite time of day, too. The light is just gorgeous and it's also time to switch from the hecticness of work to relaxing for evening. And I have to say how much I love the blossom fingering yarn! I used it in the past to make a beautiful, drapey shawl. Wonderful yarn to work with and wear.
I love sunrise, daybreak, I wake up at 5:30 just to see it from my sunroom as I sip my coffee ❤
This shawl is stunning! My favorite time of day is early morning when you can snuggle under a blanket and enjoy a cup of coffee before everything starts to get hectic
I’ve always been a sunset person until I visited the east coast and watched the sun appear out of nowhere over the ocean. It was spectacular.
I've been working 3rd shift now for over 5 years.
Nighttime has always been my favorite but now also break of day when most are still asleep.❤
I love when animals and birds are up and most humans are not stirring yet🐣💙
I love the late afternoon when the sun is still bright. All the leaves on the trees glow and seem full of promise.
The solitude of early mornings is my time to enjoy my tea and either my current book or my knitting project
Around 4 am is my favorite time of day. It is quiet as it is the time when the night people and animals go to sleep and before the day people and animals wake.
Ooooh those blues and teals along with the other colors!! 😍. Reminds me of the beautiful morning skies before the heat of the day. That’s my favorite time to sit and watch the birds with a cup of tea…and usually my yarn and needles, too. 🧶 ❤
I like morning with all the singing birds. Illinois is flat and boring, so we never see such spectacular scenes like those you capture with the mountains. I wish!!!
I really think I can do this shawl. I had such a hard time with the Ranier. My five friends have finished or are about to finish it. We all started a little after Valentine's Day. After several emails to your team, I gave up. Now I feel really left out because their Ranier shawls are just stunning. So, all the more reason to try this one. I need a win! Will download pattern and cross my fingers to win the yarn. I never saw beads on a shawl. Really cool!!!!
Go for it. I'm sure you can do it 💚
My favorite time of day is evening. The busy day is done and it’s time to relax and enjoy hearing about everyone’s day and watch a beautiful sunset.
My work mornings start before the sun breaks the darkness so while I’m have my tea and toast I get to appreciate the beautiful array of orange and purples that appear behind the trees! 🥰
I like the beginning of the day when my kitty is trying rub on me to wake me up to feed her. The birds are all singing and the day feels fresh.
Morning is my favorite quiet time watching the sun rise.
Hi Chandi, my favorite time of day is just before bed, when everything for the day is done, and the left over time is for me and my yarn. It’s the time when I sit in my bedroom chair with my lamp and an old black and white movie on CZcams and I just sit and either crochet or knit. I do this until I know I’m too sleepy to hold a hook or needles and then lights out. That’s my favorite time of the day.
I love the dawn of each day. Its a beautiful Spring season and our nesting Eastern Bluebirds, Mourning Doves and American Robins are busy feeding their broods. Our trees are leafing out and the glorious colors remind me of your gorgeous yarns!
I love when the sun sets and everything turns pinky orange, and then the blue hour after. It's so pretty and magical. 🧡
I used to hate mornings- but I’ve learned that new mercies are given to us every morning. I praise God and love hearing the birds giving him thanks for a new day. This shawl is beautiful.
I love when the sun is starting to set, how everything starts glowing. Then after the sun sets, I love when the lighting starts to turn into purples.
I love the mid-afternoon when the breeze comes up and the Sun is just starting to set
My absolute favorite time of day is dusk when everything takes on a subtle yellow/ orange tone. That helps me relax and breathe easy. 😌 ❤
What a spectacular pattern!
I love the stillness of the morning. I sit on my couch and watch the mystery of the day unfold in front of my eyes.
I live on the side of a mountain in Maryland. I don't see sunsets from my house. The sun just goes behind the mountain. But, that time of day, right before the sun disappears, it shines into my room and brightens my knitting for a time, as my chair is in front of the window. I'm flexible. My favorite time of day is the time I have uninterrupted knitting! 😂😊 The colors of this fiber is so pretty!
I work night shift at a hospital. Before we got so busy I would step out side for a moment at dawn before the world awoke and enjoy the quiet and hush. I rarely get to do that now. But every now and then I get a glimpse of the dawn thru a patients window and I find peace.
I’m definitely a night owl, but I do truly love early mornings. Like a new beginning. ☺️
My favorite time of the day is sun set when you see the amazing colors sinking down over the horizon. There is a magical feeling in the air and all is calm ❤️ what another wonderful day drawing to an end 🎉
9am sitting on my back porch with a cup of coffee & watching the birds. We have 2 acres so many species to observe
This is a gorgeous shawl, Chandi. Just before it starts to get the slightest bit of light in the morning, I like to sit on my lanai. I watch the outdoors start to appear from the darkness. This continues to amaze me everyday 🙏
Oh yes! The early morning Golden Hour is the most amazing wonder to witness. It makes the world feel magical. I can’t wait to knit this shawl. It depicts the Golden Hour perfectly.
I'm not a morning person so I rarely see a sunrise, but I do love to see the sun set over the water (Gulf of Mexico for me). I love these rectangular shawls/wraps! So versatile 🧶
I love the morning in the summer when everything is fresh and beautiful.
At home on the West Coast I am 100% a sunrise person, and always have been - I love watching the sun rising over the ocean, and this time of year love watching it backlight the blossom trees out my bedroom window. Currently though I'm living in Scotland where sunrise is much much earlier! Here, I'm still a morning lover, but perhaps a bit later in the morning - sleep is important too!
My favorite time of day is sunset. I love sitting on the back deck and watching the sun set over the back lake. Its a great way to just sit and reflect on the day's events and lessons learned.
I think the very beginning of the sunrise is the most beautiful sight. It is such a peaceful way to start the day with a cup of freshly brewed coffee and my latest project on my back deck.
The colors of the new yarn is so pretty!
I am definitely a morning person. Love the sunrise and the beginning of a new day. We all have the opportunity to do a mini reset and enjoy a new day!!
My favorite is watching the sunset. My husband and I go out to the beach at least once a week to have a dinner picnic and watch the sunset❤❤❤❤
Evening when everything is done and I can sit and enjoy the peacefulness without worrying what needs to get done. Sunsets are beautiful 😊
I have definitely become a morning person as I've got older. I love the tranquility of the start of the day before everyone else gets up especially on the weekend as that's my craft time.
Oh my God! The second tip for the beading is brilliant!
I am an early riser. I like to take a sneak peak through my blinds to catch a glimpse of the new sun rays dancing through the leaves on my East facing trees. I excitedly prepare a nice warm cup of Berry Tea. With my cozy cup in both hands I walk barefoot to my favorite spot in my garden. It’s so beautiful to listen to the birds singing their morning praises to the heavens. By now the warm sunlight is formed into a full smile on the horizon full of new hope and new mercies. This would be a perfect time to be wrapped in a soft knit shawl full of comfort and watching the little glass beads reflecting little sparkles of color. Thank you for your generous giveaways and free patterns. You have blessed my day! 🦋✨
best part of day is morning on a hike. when you wake up and you are already in the nature
Wow, the shades in this yarn are simply so beautiful! I’m not an early morning person, so my favourite time is that quiet restful time just before you fall asleep.. I lie there and simply close my eyes, empty my mind and just breathe slowly.. zzz
My favorite time of day is after the work is done, going home, hanging out with my husband and crocheting or knitting. :)
These are some of the best vids on UTube! Seriously! This channel deserves an award!
Aww, thank you for saying that 💕
This shawl is gorgeous. I love the addition of the beads. I love the solitude of early morning. I like to take my walks as the sun rises. The air is fresh and cool right now and the birds are singing to me. 😊
Shandy I think this shawl is beautiful I love the color ways that you are making it your yarn is amazing! My favorite time of the day is the morning! I am a find a power professional for the Philadelphia School District I work as a classroom assisted one-on-one for a in a kindergarten classroom and my favorite time is in the morning and the kids are first coming into school and the staff is first coming into the building and I see all the happy faces!
My favourite time of day would be after supper, relaxing and enjoying the evening 😊
I love this shawl, I love any project that has beads in it. I loved the second method of beading the yarn. Thank you for sharing it with us. Morning is my favorite time of the day as I wake up feeling energized and plan for the day. Morning coffee and breakfast make it even more enjoyable!
