Hi dear strong and beautifel daughter ❤️ I am so proud of you, you have had a tough year and thanks to therapyknitting you are going into the new year strong. Good luck, health love and knitting in 2024. Love you, you mother 💋🙋♀️
❤️❤️❤️ the sweetest words 🥰 I love you 🩷
First time watching your channel. I’m so sorry you had a hard year. I too understand the need to knit for therapy. Also pretty yarn makes me happy. I was trying to knit fast and more and more but realize it’s stressful and now realize I need to stop slowdown and enjoy the process. Cheers to you and hope you continue healing.
You're so right. It's so easy to lose yourself in something you think will make you happier, but it doesn't always work. It's great that you found your own way now and found your joy in knitting ❤️
Watching for the first time. How wise you are to understand that you needed to step back and take care of yourself! I’ll look forward to watching your journey continue. Knitting is wonderful therapy.
Welcome to this therapyknitting corner 🥰 It wasn't easy to do, but I'm so glad I did take a step back. Hopefully knitting will keep helping you
Thank you for sharing!
Hi! Thanks for sharing. I can relate so much. I am a teacher and I also experienced severe burnout as a result of the pandemic and ended up retiring early and knitting A LOT in 2023. I find knitting such a soothing and joyful practice. I am so grateful for this craft and community. I plan to return to teaching part time a substitute this year because I do miss it. Hopefully, I can find a healthier balance. Anyway, best wishes for 2024!
Teachers just understand eachother. So glad that knitting helped you as well! ❤
I whish 2024 is a more peaceful year for you. You made beautiful sweaters. ❤
Thank you so much! I hope you will have a wonderful year too ❤️
Great episode. Lots of very useful information. That blue lento looks really super on you. A lovely colour with your complexion and eyes.
I just started the video and I want to give you a hug! I did something similar in 2021-22 where I took a step back to heal and work on myself. Of course, it's an ongoing project, and I had to return to the world, but I'm so glad I had the opportunity to take that time. All that "thinking about your thinking" and learning/utilizing coping tools is EXHAUSTING and really hard work. I'm so proud of you for taking care of yourself!
Thank you so much ❤
Claudia, your knitting skills are amazing! Sorry you are going through a breakup. I wish you healing, peace and joy in 2024!
Thank you so much ❤
Your knits are so inspiring!! Now I have to make an April cardigan. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much!🥰
You can take some sewing thread and make tiny stitches at the ends of each of your buttonholes on your cardigan to make them smaller, so the buttons don't fall out.
Why haven't I thought of that? Thanks for the tip!
Happy New Year. 2024 will be a better year for you. You’ve got this. 👍
Beautiful work. That blue sweater you are wearing is gorgeous. Love all your colour choices. 🥰🇨🇦
Thank you for being so open with all of this. I get it. Loved that you talked about the work, the yarn, and the wear of the garments. Your work is beautiful. I wish you all the best for 2024.
I too got back into knitting because of Covid. I live alone and tell people that I "had" to knit to keep my sanity. Now that covid is over, I'm trying to knit less and get out of the house to join fun activities/clubs.
Yes that is something I really want to do more! Connection with people and meeting new people. Knitting is fun, but I don't want it to be the only thing I do anymore
Wishing you a peaceful year. I suggest you. Knitvysing fingering weight yarn, and savour every stitch xx
Thank you! Yes that is a wonderful and useful tip. Will defenitely do
Enjoyed your comments, helpful points that you made on each piece. You are solid gold and don’t let anyone get in front of that, move onto a new chapter and make it yours. ❤
Aww thank you, that's sweet ❤
Thank you for sharing. Love to see you wearing your projects. I know it takes a lot of time and I appreciate it. Here is to hoping for you to have a fresh start and a very good year ahead.
Happy New Year! your knits are awesome❤ Regards from Beirut
Happy New Year to you too!
Happy new Year, I just met your channel. speaking of introductions, I can fully confirm that I too am a person for whom knitting is therapy. I always knew it, but seeing the intensity with which I started knitting in the last couple of years and analyzing how I feel, I can say, yes, it is my therapy that gives me inner balance and peace.
You described that so beautifully ❤️ Love how knitting can work wonders
Hey Claudia :) I've watched your whole video while knitting, your garments are amazing and look so good on you!! Best of luck in 2024 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much! 🥰 I wish you a Happy New Year ❤️
Lovely knits you have there, wonderful colour choice for the Cardigan no. 8. All the very best for 2024 and I look forward to following your progress, personal and knitting!
Thank you so much!
Love your content! 😊
Hi Claudia. I love your enthusiasm over colour. Have you heard of the colour seasons theory regarding which tones of a colour suit us best? I’d say you are a “summer”, which has cooler skin, eye and hair tone. So, according to this, cooler tones of say pink will suit you most. There’s loads of videos on CZcams about it. I don’t always stick to it cos sometimes I just choose a colour cos I like it, but I do find it useful to know.
Hi Mandy! Well I had a coloranalysis a couple of years ago and I was a summer/winter so you are totally right! I think I can handle the saturated jewel tones of the winter, but also the softer colorful tones of the summer. I think it depends on the color which one is my preference. And I know all kinds of blue suit me really well. But as you say, sometime you just want a color that you like
I’ve been through your “year 2023” myself. I’m sorry I wasn’t a knitter then, and I’m so happy you found comfort in such a rewarding and colorful craft. PS that Monday sweater would cheer up anyone even on the grayest day! Great color! ❤. And your knitting skill is exquisite!
Hopefully 2024 will be a better year for you ❤
Happy New Year! Beautiful knits. A striped sweater has been on my list. So many choices. Best wishes for an easy move.
Happy New Year to you too! Stripes are the best so food luck with choosing 😊
Wishing you peace. What a wonderful podcast. Thank you for sharing everything. Your knitting is absolutely beautiful. Wishing you a Happy New Year. ❤
Thank you 🥰

Thank you so much! ❤️ this year will be better for all of us
I loved your knits...i guess I have told you before😊... it looks that you are empowered to face the new year of change💪.It looks to me me you are a great woman, as you overcame all the pressure and situations that you faced....maybe some are still a day by day conquest, but it looks that you "have it"!!!! You go for that change girl!!! What a great year it's going to be!!!!❤❤❤ lots of love from Lisbon ( I will look up and send you good vibrations throughout the sky!!! Be sure to catch them 😊❤
I forgot to say that I love teachers!❤
Awww thank you so much! You're so sweet and your words make me so happy 🥰 I really do feel ready for all the change in this new year and to feel powerful again. I wish that feeling on anyone! ❤️
Yes! Love you for saying that 😊
My heart breaks for you! I also had a hard year and knitting has helped me tremendously! Love all you’re sweaters, they bring me a lot of motivation for my future projects ❤️
❤
You are brave and amazing. Thank you for sharing ❤ you are so talented and I can’t wait to follow your knitting journey!
New subscriber here, just have to watch your older vidéos now 😂 I wish you a happy year, a cosy New home and heart warming projects.
Thank you 🥰
So glad to have found you, Claudia! Lovely sweaters, lovely person. All the best in 2024 from a new subscriber. :)
Thank you so much ❤
Heel herkenbaar! (weer) begonnen als therapy maar het is nu meer een obsessie :)
Ach een beetje obsessief breien kan geen kwaad toch? 😊
I’d wear the Barbroe top with a black skirt or white with a loose black belt on my hips and just pull a small amount of the top over the belt so you can still see the belt with a bit of the top draping over the top of the belt.
All your knits are wonderful and I hope you have a great 24 in your new apartment, hugs to you for your healing heart.
Thanks for the tips! ❤
beautiful work
The boyfriend knitting curse is real! It’s not just sweaters…
Oh gosh no! Well maybe I should knit just for myself then. To be safe 😂
Wow, that rainbow tweedy cardigan in the end is STUNNING! I really appreciate people using colors other than greige, beige and off white.
I discovered natural + tweed for myself and want to use a rainbow tweed in the future (i think there´s a shade of peer gynt but my lys didn´t carry that one today)
And I must agree that the Peruvian Highland Wool is such a wonderful yarn. It must be one of my favorites at this point. I made the Pippi Pullover out of it and have been living in it for 2 months and the pilling is not that noticable and the sweater keeps me warm in my 17° apartment.
Just now I´m making my first pair of mitts using Peruvian again and it´s so wonderful to knit with. This year I´m planning to make more small projects that I can gift to people because I only need that many knit sweaters for myself.
THANKS! I love color so much and I love seeing other people using color. Gift knits are defenitely a good choice to knit if your sweater quota is fulfilled haha
wat heb je veel gebreid en zo mooi! fijn dat het voor jou ook zo helend is. ik vind jou Sonja sweater kleuren juist prachtig!. Leuke video en ook weer wat nieuwe idetjes op gedaan! Groetjes, Julia
Leuk dat je wat ideetjes hebt gekregen!
Another dutch knitter, yaaay 😁
Yes!
I seldom comment, but this time I have to:...Enjoyed your (thoughtful) pod immensely, and the barbroe top landed directly among my favourites...
You're so sweet ❤
So nice to see all those colors in your knits, and I do have to say I quite like the color choice and the fit of your Sonja sweater ! But my favorite knit of yours would have to be the Cardigan n°8, this yarn combo just seem so precious and really up my alley ! (did you hold any of those double while making the cardigan ?)
No just single strands! Thanks!
Wat een jaar voor jou... Heftig, maar het klinkt ook alsof je er een creatieve draai aan hebt kunnen geven en een mooie uitlaatklep hebt in het breien. Het obsessieve is herkenbaar... En de armpijn ook 🙈 ik heb veel garen gekocht op marktplaats. Je kunt soms echt mooie dingen vinden. Geen trui-hoeveelheden vaak, maar wel voor kleinere projecten. Ik wens je een rustig jaar met minder brei-uren 😉
Dankjewel! Slim om op markplaats te kijken, ga ik zeker eens doen. Haha ik betwijfel of ik echt minder ga breien, maar wie weet
My dear
Those are the knitting rules!
No ring/No sweater
Scarves & socks for passerby’s
Haha😂 I'll keep them in mind
The pilling should stop after a couple times shaving.
That would be wonderful! Thanks for the tip :)
