Whenever I hear something blue I always think of weddings. I like using the red lace needles.
Love that something blue as it's my favourite colour! 💙 😍 💙
Something blue. Blue is my favorite color.
Something Blue looks perfect for a project I’ve been wanting to start!
Love your Podcast. The blanket it looking amazing! Incredible how much you can get done by knitting 10 rounds of a sock per day.
The Something blue yarn looks amazing. It reminds me of the ocean.
Thank you! I definitely plant to do another big blanket next year this way too!
Something blue would be wonderful. I am always delighted when your videos pop up in my feed.
Thank you! :)
Something blue. I’m knitting a blue vest hooding to finish soon. I love the chiagoo lace knitting needles.
Something blue it is! What beautiful yarn ❤️
I have something blue on my needles, it is also my favorite color.
I think your podcasts are terrific. Your projects are always interesting especially the ones that use small amounts of leftover yarns like those lace designs and your shawls. I’d love to make something blue for my blue-eyed daughter.
Thanks so much. I love puzzling through the scraps of yarn when they come up! 😊
My favorite radio show is called Breakfast with the Blue (s) =). Love how your Harvey Wallbanger and your chicken form your mom's yarns came out! Like you, I usually prefer needles on the blunter end though it depends on the pattern - sometimes cabling with a cable needle works better with pointier tips. Hope you are having a great time at your retreat! Can't wait to see what you bring home.
Had a great time at the retreat - I think I'll have to record a separate video for all the goodies! Just the initial goodie bag was a full shopping bag of stuff!
Oh I am also made in Ohio and something blue will go nicely in a single crochet linen stitch corner to corner blanket I am obsessed with!
This skein went to it's new forever home a while ago, but check out my next episode, there should be another skein in search of a new home then. :)
I'm starting to like blue, I've given myself the task of using blue and red.
Something blue is a beautiful yarn. Would be great in my stash. Lol. I enjoy your podcasts very much. Thank you
Thank you!
Something blue is so pretty! I hope Odo feels better soon. ❤
He is just such a happy guy, even with this going on he's irrepressible!
My daughter needs something blue in October, she's getting married! Loved your purple sweater and the Anna Tee looks intriguing! Thanks!
Very cool, perfect for something blue! I can't wait to get to the 2nd color on the Anna Tee and see how it looks, the construction is really neat.
I love the next section on the blanket. I enjoyed making it too. Looking forward to seeing yours put on.
I just cast off something blue and am about to make a blue themed project bag.
I think I'll do a Dutch heel technique when I get around to making a Brioclava. I guess Steven made it a sewn flap as that is maybe the easiest way for most people when dealing with brioche.
The heel flap type treatment was definitely more complicated! But I think worth avoiding the seaming. :) I'm looking forward to getting to that next section on the blanket!
I’m so thrilled that you took my suggestion about the heel and toes for your curio socks! They look absolutely lovely😍 I’m currently sitting outside with my dog and with my feet in the grass, knitting on a linen summer top. The sky right now is my perfect something blue.
It was the perfect way to use the skein! Hope your beautiful weather continues! :)
Ooohh…So beautiful 💙 something blue! I’m one of those that like the ChiaGoo lace tips 😉
I do think lace tips are much more popular. :)
I need to devise a system like yours to use my stash. Something blue would make a wonderful Christmas gift for my neighbor who loves the color blue.
The random picks definitely get me using older yarns and scraps in my stash, but it helps eliminate analysis paralysis too when trying to make a choice of what to work with. :)
Great podcast as always, and so helpful for ideas for functional use of our single skeins and leftovers. Thank you! I was inspired at a recent Fiber Fair to collect yarns to marl for the Elizabeth Z. Magic Sweater. Something blue would be a lovely addition.
Oh, I have to look up that Magic Sweater!
bless ur heart
Always love your podcast and process! Something blue is beautiful
Thank you!
I watch your CZcams shorts and am Always intrigued to see what you make of your picks. Love the concept. To win the something blue yarn would be great.
When I saw the shorts format I thought they'd be a perfect compliment to preview the choices, it's fun to set those up!
I need to knit something blue very soon! My stash is lacking that color :)
Something blue! How about an emotional support chicken. I like making them in fingering weight yarn. I am new to your videos. I took a few minutes and watched the three-needle bindoff of the chicken tail. I'll be coming back to that one. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! I'll have to try a chicken in fingering at some point, I saw one on another podcast and it was so cute!
I currently have something blue on my needles.
something blue
I love the color combination of the emotional support chicken...Will you name her after your Mom ?
Oooh! What a great idea! Working through some possible chicken puns with her name now!
Hi Anna. I have finally finished all of the Snowmen I am making for Christmas gifts so was able to cast on a pair of socks last night using Opal yarn. Something Blue would make a pretty pair of socks as well. The emotional support chickens are cute but I don't think I will be jumping on that band wagon. As I was teaching my niece how to crochet, however, I have joined in on the granny square chicken craze. Your Harvey Wallbanger sweater turned out beautiful and I am looking forward to seeing what it looks like on. Quick question...I am knitting my socks with a K3, P1 rib pattern. My knit stitch before the purl stitch looks great but my knit stitch after the purl stitch looks looser than the other two. Any idea how I can tighten up that stitch so it looks like the others? Happy Knitting!
The trick with going back and forth between knits and purls is how far the yarn has to travel from the previous stitch. Take a look at how much yarn is between the stitches going from k-p and p-k - depending on how you form stitches, this may be different. You may need a light tug to shorten it when going from purl to knit, but that's just a guess. Hope this helps! I just found a video that might help - check out: czcams.com/video/IR1-ga90l50/video.html
First time viewer. I have a question. I just finished the Be on an emotional support chicken which happens to be purple and gold and I do not like the seam on my tail at all. Do you think I could just take it out even though it’s all put together and then just redo it with the three needle bind off. I don’t think it would affect anything else to you? Thank you very much.
I think the main concern would be where the stitches were picked up for the body. You should be able to remove the previous bind off and cast it off this way, but you may have to use the end to smooth over where it's attached to the body. I think someone on the video for the three needle bind off did exactly this, so it might be worth asking over there too. Hope this helps! :)
@@theyarnrandomizer I took out the yarn that I crocheted the back together with then I undid the the bind off on both sides and redid it with the three needle bind off. It looks beautiful thank you.
@@kimbarone7409 Awsome!
