Looks like an awesome trip. Thanks for sharing. BTW, you were correct that Þingborg is pronounced thingborg. Þ is the letter Thorn, which existed in Old English, Old Norse, and still exists in Icelandic. It makes a sound similar to th in thing.

This video is outstanding. How doesn’t it have more views? Your makes are so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your insights.

Thank you!!!!

You did a great job on this video

Thanks so much for sharing your notes on not just the project - challenges with multiple charts, etc., but also the joy you found in the process of making and stretching just a bit to become a better knitter. The sweater looks terrific on you and you should be very proud of yourself!💕

It’s so great to see you. I’m looking forward to your new channel direction. (Though surely there’ll be knitting. Right? Of course there’ll be knitting.). My goals for the new year: Survive. Make stuff. Walk 1000 miles. (I won’t make that one.)

Lovely trip

Love ie❤😂

I recommend Ann Budd’s The Knitters Handy Book of Top Down Sweaters - the patterns are written for any gauge so they are perfect for hand spun. I knit a raglan sweater for my hubby with my Tour de Fleece 2023 marled 2 ply, and he loves it. :) (I added a bit of color-work to it too) The patterns in this book are lovely, but there are also recipes for various styles of sweaters so you can riff on them yourself.

Nice to see your face (and your knitting)!

Yay! Cannot wait for naptime to watch this

Hi Naomi! Have fun exploring the paths that make you happy! Your travel footage is lovely - I'm sure it will be wonderful to get out and see new places! But remember to buy some special skeins as you travel, for when the knitting mojo may strike again! 🤗 Take care, Cheers, Judith 💜

A wonderful pullover!😀 For those who love both knitting and sewing: I show reviews of fashion magazines on sewing for different years. There you will find great ideas for your creativity.🧵🪡🧥👖👕👗👚👙

Good to see you back! Love the Habitation Throw! Looking forward to see what 2024 holds for you and your channel. :)

Two of my favourite sources for ’plain’ yarn are Hitomi Shida’s books: “250 Japanese knitting Stitches” and “Japanese knitting Stitch Bible”, both translated by Gayle Roehm. I choose any simple sweater pattern in stockinette, garter or reverse garter stitch but that I like the shape and fit of. I’ll pick a stitch pattern out of the book(s) and swatch it to see how I’d have to adapt my stitch count in order to have one or two pattern repeats of the stitch running up the centre of the sweater’s front panel and maybe one running up the sleeves from wrist to shoulder. If I’m feeling fancy I’ll add one of the border stitches along the bottom but more often than not, I just stick to the original sweater’s bottom border. I don’t know if I’m making sense. The end result always looks spectacular. If I don’t want to do the math and swatching I stick to a shawl and knit up that gorgeous yarn and simply (well, depending on the stitch pattern not so simply) cast on enough stitches for several repeats of a pattern out of the books and keep at it until I’ve got a scarf. It’s especially effective with neutrals: whites, beiges, greys, lighter browns. Both the yarn and the gorgeous stitches get to shine. It makes a lovely present, either to a loved one or to myself. I’d have to check the books but one of them has a hat pattern and a pattern for fingerless mittens. I’ve made both. There’s also a pattern for socks but like you I hate knitting socks. No idea why. It just… irks me. Love wearing hand knitted socks. Hate knitting them. Even knitting baby booties falls into the “heck no” pile. So I’m not going to suggest that sock pattern. If you’re ever interested in an extremely simple and quick to knit lace scarf pattern for a short project that involves mindless knitting to alternate with your hat knitting, I’ve got a ridiculously easy pattern for an asymmetrical triangular scarf. It basically alternates increasing panels of all knits and panels of k2tog and yarn overs with the return row being all knitted stitches. Made in lace weight yarn it yields a scarf that is light as a feather, has gorgeous drape and if the yarn has a nice bloom to it, is surprisingly cozy and warm when it.s a bit chilly but light enough to never be stifling in milder climates. Perfect to wear in places where the aircon is always set too high and chills your neck and shoulders but not too warm to get from the car to inside… or for those evenings when you have somewhere and it gets a little nippy but you don’t want something heavy. I wouldn’t recommend it for the yarn you showcased, but if you ever want it, I’ll gladly translate it from Dutch and pass it on. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve knitted it (mostly inlace weight mohair blends).

I have missed you ladies . It's good to see you back at it. I hope your sister decides to get back at it again soon too. Beautiful makes as always. I've. Been doing so much spinning . I love it even more then I thought I would. I've also learned to dye my own fiber. 💖🤗

Yassssss 🎉🎉🎉 So good to see your face!! Literally did a double take when you said you liked socks, I think we both had the same shocked face 😂😂 Soooo looking forward to more channel content, travel knitting vlogs sound awesome. Miss you girls xxx

My reason is to draw up at the side of the sweater. All my sweaters look like maternity clothing! Bust darts pull the side back much more organically than waist shaping! As a seamstress, darts are removing fabric, but knitting doesn’t work that way, so i need help figuring this out!

Thank you so much for this video! I just bought the Nano 2. Lots smaller, but your video really helps because it’s my first ever spinning wheel. I am used to supported spinning and spin lace weight & cobweb yarn. As I prefer to have really small skeins for my knitting, I thought even plying would work well on the Nano. Wish me luck!

Hello can you tell me where to get the Avena sweater pattern please?

I love the pottery, they really show the progression of skills. I’ve heard it takes quite a while to “get it”. You did it in 6 weeks! I have a neighbor who has a wheel and has offered to show me how to throw a pot. Ha! A one afternoon class. I have a feeling mine won’t even come close to your first one.

Took me 5 days but i finally got around to watching 😅 I really want to try pottery, i think it'd be really fun. Your tiles look fab! And so does your hair!! Curls galore ❤

Love the vlog and seeing a little more of who Naomi is! The kitchen looks great! We chose a similar blue tile for our backsplash. :D

I love love the blue tile in the bathroom, and I'm excited to see the finished new exhibit haunted house! Who is the family that donated all the stuff?

We have a similar climate where I live so this was a great video. Thank you💜

It's taking me a long time to knit this one. I had to start over. I love it, though. Thank you for doing this video.

What a good experiment. I feel for you about the heat. My son lives in Texas and I just can’t even imagine. Love your sweaters. Love the plumeria. I need a summer tee. And…love the dogs.

Thank you for sharing! It’s winter here where I am but you’ve got me thinking about my summer knitting plans - I’m interested in trying silk yarn and tencel too ❤

Beautiful! You are an expert knitter

That was great information! I live in NY and our summers can be hot and humid too. Not as bad, but hard to wear knitwear.

Love this!!! So fun to get to know you better.

Yeah, it's even been in the 90s here. 🥵Loved the parade of summer knits!

Your Misurina is beautiful. For summer heat, I have seen Misurina knit in cotton blend in ONE color. Really stunning look at the cable/lace structure in the pattern. Yay knitting!!!

This was interesting! I’m not gonna lie, I’m glad I don’t have to contend with that kind of heat here in Ireland! Stay cool xx

It's hot hot hot in Georgia. I can't imagine how hot you are down there in Florida! I'm burning up just watching you talk outside in the sun! Whew! ❤ Love the vlog!

Excellent instructions. Thanks 😊

Love the hairdo and the new backdrop.

Awesome job and yarn!!! Great work on the mods.

Stunning! (Not that you are capable of anything less.)

Wow amazing! I have a friend who lives in Iceland and I’m trying to visit next June! I think I’m gonna try and go in time for the knit festival :)

I love to hear about fitting modifications Naomi, thanks for the fun and informative episode. I am really noticing the need to vary the amount of fabric on the back of my knits and definitely want to experiment with bust dart shaping. 🧶Cher

The color is one of my favorites.

Beautiful shirt! It also fits perfectly!

I love your Misurina!! Can’t wait to see what you make with the rest of the Shibui!

Great video and beautiful sweater! I really like your color choices, as usual.

Thanks for such a detailed explanation! I recently saw bust darts were even possible in knitwear. I’m at that point in my pullover now that I want to try that technique.

The shawl looks great! I also really like how the Misurina is coming out. I guess it was meant for you and not me. 😘

My aunt had a mango tree in her back yard and it was amazing. We always had mangoes! My great aunt had a key lime tree and would always make limeade when we came over. My dream is to someday have a lemon tree. 🍋

I want it to be mango season in England!! I'd love it if we could grow citrus, instead we get berries, they're just not the same. Your totally going to need those shawls in October! I might have to knit a matching whitmoor, curly curvy crafty on tour in matching sweaters 😂

Yes, I think we should take another trip just so you can use your woven shawl 😂😂
