    Whew! I am heartened to hear other knitters admit they don't always like how a project turns out.

    • @purlswirl3354

      I agree! I've made a habit of reclaiming yarn from projects if I don't love them. 🙂

  • @debranorton6434
    @debranorton6434 Před rokem +2

    I figured out a way to actually end up with two socks! I knit both together, not two socks on one needle, I tried that, and it was too tangled. So this is what I do - when I'm winding the yarn into balls I weigh it as I'm winding, so that I end up with two balls of equal weight. Then I cast on toe up, and knit just the toe box. When that's done I cast on my second sock onto another set of needles and knit the toe box. I go back and forth between the two socks knitting one or two inches at a time so that they're finished at the same time. I use the same process for sweater sleeves and have found they turn out better than one at a time. I enjoy your videos. Thank you!

    I truly loved this episode!!! As this being my first year as a full time knitter. My me made list is long and I am feeling overwhelmed! Would you consider making an episode of the top things a beginner should focus on knitting wise for a me made closet ??? It would be so helpful!!!! I am so inspired by you!! I don’t have the sewing machine yet so just focusing on the knitted side and I love your taste and how they are very wearable!! Help ❤ please and if not it’s ok I know you are busy!

    A great episode thank you! The Ursa sweater is beautiful and one I'll be adding to my list to try ❤ I've made one knitted and one crocheted yoke sweater, with a second knitted one on my needles. As a full-busted woman, I really don't think they suit me hugely, so it was reassuring to hear you talk about the fit of yours. I want to try a drop shoulder sweater and a v neck design. I've not knitted a cardigan yet either, so that would make my list too 😊

    I just started the Sophie Shawl. If you’re looking for a mindless knit , this fits the bill. It’s a bit of a plain jane but I think it’s going to be a very functional and well used knit.

    I have issues with yokes sweaters as well. I'm a small boned big gal with bosoms for days. I usually got for minimal to negative ease around the bust just so I'm not swimming across the shoulders. I love seamless sweaters but I always have to play with the pattern (read frog and re-frog) when I make them for myself.

    So many beautiful items! I was thinking about what you said about the fit if some yoke sweaters. In a couple of my later yoke sweaters I did knit 1 size smaller on the top (I picked the size that was my more exakt measurement +- positive ease that is included in the pattern). That has turned out great for me.

    Hi there. I just found your channel and I’m loving it and I’ve subscribed. Going to be enjoying watching all the videos I’ve missed. I do have a question. In this video, the last shawl you made with the foxy lady yarn (bandana something) I looked it up and it says it’s fingering weight. Is that sock yarn? I have two skeins of beautiful sock yarn I’d like to make what you made. I’m hoping it’s enough and that it’ll look like yours. What needle size did you use? I just love yours. 😊
