The colors of that batt!!! 😍
Love your spun yarn colors:)
Love the Wax or Wane Hat!
Oh I didn’t know about that fabric store! Just what I’ve been looking for. Thanks - I’ll go check it out.
You need to do some digging, but it's a great shop with very friendly staff ❤️
Ooo I also needed a braid from wonderland dyeworks!! For the sage green, maybe the love note by tincanknits. I’m making one right now and it’s so fun and satisfying.
So so happy to see you back in this space!
Looking forward watching it tonight :))
Hi!! Loved the update, beautiful sweater, the grey and purples look so good together!
I love lambtown too. Seems to be the only wool festival in our area.
Isn't it wonderful? And it seems to be it, especially since Stitches is no more.
So good to see you!! That pressed flowers cardigan is so beautiful!
Thank you! I've been catching up on your podcast too!
So nice to see you!!!
Aw nice to reconnect with online knitting friends!
Your hand dyed yarn is beautiful!
Very nice socks!
Have you tried Portuguese knitting, very low stress on hands and fingers.
Maybe line only the bottom/skirt of the dress and wear either a cami under, or a sweater over the top?
The linen looks very pretty. I Might choose Yarn like that, for a summer Ranunculus. 40 stitches short: It occurs to me that the yoke of your sweater does not show the right number of 4-leafed flowers (should be 30). However, it does show the right number of “rosebuds” (SECTION 3: Yoke, row 2, should also be 30) Look closely: exactly between each 4-leafed flower, you should find a rosebud, juist two inches above it. In your yoke they do not follow that rithm. Right under the rosebud you should count 5 stiches, but I only see 4. So I think you accidentally skipped row 8: (K3, RLI, k1) repeat to end. And, I have the impression you also skipped row 9 (and 10?).
Be patient with yourself! Last fall I changed to Norwegian style knitting. It was a big change but so totally worth it. Your gauge will get better as you go.
Hi enjoyed watching ;) I'm just working on my first ranunculus and I made a huge oppsy ... I completely missed an increase row and had to tear back geeez lol .. yours looks just lovely!
My daughter found you we are located close to you. I am a mad felter. I would love to connect with you. God Yule
Hi Jillian! Tammi here from the Wool and Wine podcast. You should calculate how many inches/stitches you would like to decrease. There should be at least 2 plain rows between decrease rows. You might consider making the decreases a few inches away from the sides on both front and back. It will look more like a design detail and keep the sides from having a jagged look.
I think you Felix looks perfect as is! That's just one random viewer's opinion. If you aren't happy with it, rip back. I would be curious to know how much length you are able to gain with a few sets of decreases...it doesn't seem like it would be significant, but maybe I'm wrong.
I think your blue vest is beautiful and worth it! For all the time such a work of art takes….. I would 😁
Yes, you should always use polyester thread however there is some cotton coated polyester thread. Cotton thread deteriorates so much quicker than the government so it’s not wise to use even if you’re using natural fiber garment. I always use Guetterman thread. You can get it at Joannes or WAWAK which has quality sewing supplies that cost way less than at Joannes. What is a good secondhand store in Sacramento? The goodwill near me is horrible
I'm really enjoying your Blue period! The Rosenlund top looks so good, and the colour looks so cohesive. A labour of love for sure!
Color makes me happy and Jillian makes me happy!!! :D Start the waist shaping after widest bust circumference. I like the idea of cotton thread, but you've got to keep in mind that it will shrink. I think that's why some quilters like it, because it adds to the puckering of a quilt after it's been washed. Even if the fabric you're sewing is cotton, the thread and fabric will shrink at different rates. <3
Amy Chris…stoff…ers
Thank you! I can finally pronounce her name.
Working on a Musselburgh hat since I quit the Stephen West MKAL.
Loved this episode! Your cardigan is beautiful! Idlewild Clay has some beautiful handmade buttons that would look amazing on it. Also, you look really good in your sweater vest! I think you should totally wear it.
Thank you! And thank you for the recommendation you are so right, these buttons are beautiful
We get it! We sew our own clothes too. Have you considered joining The American Sewing Guild? We have a very large group here in Sacramento
Hi Edina! Thank goodness we're in good company. I forgot about the guild! Thank you I'd love to check it out.
I really enjoyed the pokeberry dye segment of this video. As a matter of fact, I have a 2 5-gallon buckets full of pokeberries soaking in vinegar, I am curious, how well has the dyed held up in your pokeberry dyed yarn?
That's exciting! It has worked really well. I have this yarn worked into mitts. While they are not washed often, the have gotten good wear, and the color still looks true.
Just found your podcast - love it! 🎀
And would love to sewing too 🪡
Would love to see your sewing projects in another video
Coming soon!
Please share what linen yarn you used for your sweater?
Just came across your site and truly enjoyed it. Regarding your dress; many dressmakers will line the body itself but not the sleeves. Also the lining many times only comes to the knees rather than the entire length of the dress. You could also just make a black slip or buy one that would serve the same purpose and make it easier. Hope this helps. Diane from Boston
What size of needles?
Lovely to see you back! Yes to a garden video. Thanks for the lovely content
Thank you Erinne!
Please do a garden video!!👩🏻🌾
Sigh, I need to build up my confidence to finally show my garden :)
I’d love to hear about your sewing projects as well as these gorgeous knitting and crochet ones. The Felix sweater is so fun, the cardigan version is actually really fun to make too.
I think a Felix Cardigan may just be my next cast-on!
Yes, please re: sharing your sewing!
Muy lindo tu podcast!😃 Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
Coming from someone working on her millionth grey sweater while watching, you can never have too many grey sweaters!
Welcome back! You've been missed. Enjoy your podcast so much.
I’m not a spinner, I feel it would be another rabbit hole for me. I have 2 WIPs, a Ranunculus which I’m knitting the bottom hem, and a Stripes!. Also a pair of socks.
Thank you for your podcast! Your voice is really pleasant to listen to and I'd love to hear about your gardening. Please keep these episodes coming. 🤗 And by the way I've practically lived in my linen Ranunculus because of these heatwaves. Have a lovely summer! Päivi from Finland.
Hello all the way from Finland! Linen is the only way to survive the heat. And thank you so much ☺️
Hi! The short ribbing on your Gregoria fibers Vest: Why don’t you cut off the tubular BO. Just cut one stitch in the ribbing a couple of rows over the BO and pick out the yarn out all way round. Thank you for a lovely podcast. Ulrika from Sweden.
Hello there in Sweden! That's a great idea, I'm going to go snip and rip it out NOW.
Nice to see North Coast yarn being used. I sometimes forget how much there is out there.
There is! I want to use more.
Another motivation technique I use is weaving in my ends as I go so I don’t have a lot of ends when almost finished. Using the Weavin’ Stephen method from Stephen West.
Loving your podcasts, even these old ones.
I do love to start projects. I don’t mind sleeves but procrastinate when I have to stitch pieces together.
