that's actually so helpful!!!!! i'm still too much of a beginner to try and knit something like this but i definitely will someday soon. thanks for this!
I'm watching your video while knitting the vest by following your pattern! If this isn't a perfect situation, I don't know what it is! In parallel, I also started my cardigan like I wrote in your last video, I've done the back and the front panel right already but I'm procrastinating now 😅Anyway, all of this to say thank you for being my online knitting buddy!
@@mena_makes ❤️ It's also an hope macaulay inspired but super chunky and oversized! I used an hobbii amigo chunky yarn that I bought last year but I don't use a pattern so it's a journey 😅 I will tag you on Instagram when I finished it so you can see it too!
oh cool!!! yes please do, I can't wait to see how it turns out!😊 it is a journey isn't it? I rambled on so much about it 😅 but it's definitely how it feels.
I love the 90s vibe colour block (yes, the cat from Alice in Wonderland, creepy one lol). And how you are very cool with changing colours depending on how much yarn you have ;)
You are one of the most helpful knit youtubers I have seen and I have been BINGING 🤣 I hope to start to learn to knit over the summer hahahaha XD I hope it pushes through 🤞
Still working on the vest. It got hot and I'm like, "And you are knitting a warm vest... why??!!" JK. Actually I always knit in spurts. I'll go great guns and then lose interest, and then eventually go back and finish it up. Since knitting is truly a hobby, I don't like to pressure myself to finish. And I have ripped out a lot of stuff where I thought the color combo would be fantastic only to hate it when I got into it. I still love knitting, and have the vest packed for vacation driving!
haha yes it is getting rather hot for a wool vest! I know how you feel about the colour combo dilemas - I quite often hate something at first but start to like it as I go (or vice versa) I do love that with knitting you can always, always start again without wasting anything though, I really love that (:
So I am a very new knitter and my mom teaches a lady who knits as well with those needles and they are so great. Glad I get to try out to see what I like so I don’t waste money! When did you start knitting?
Yes! they are great aren't they! I learnt the basics when I was about 10 and knitted a lot of scarves and stuff as a teenager but then got more serious about it around a year ago during quarantine. How about you?
@@mena_makes so i actually started off crocheting a few years ago and so I picked up crocheting when I was in quarantine again, then I realized how the texture of clothing in knitting is way cooler so I started to learn a little. I really want a tank top pattern that is explained well, for a good project, but I ordered some yarn and am ready to do the vest!! But I’ve made lots crocheting!
can i just say i love your voice so much!!
eeeee thanks ! 😊

Thank you so much! (: (: (: good luck with learning, think of cute summer crop tops to motivate you hahaha
I think I would've used the lighter blue and the pink together, but ahhh I didn't finish watching lets see what u come up with :)
Ooo I didn't even think of that as an option but yes, I think that would've looked nice!

also may i ask what camera and editing program you use to make your videos? they look really nice
Thank you! I actually just use my iphone xr and imovie + canva for graphics and stuff.
i love your glasses! can you tell the brand and model? 🥰
thank you! I got them from a Japanese company called zoff. Quite a long time ago now so I don't think they make that model anymore
@@mena_makes probably not but thanks anyway! they might have some other cool models
