    It was fun to visit with your knit group. We have a knit morning at our (not mine) yarn store here in KY, then a bunch of us just drop in to knit and visit at least once a week.

    Thank you so much to you and all of your knit night knitters for sharing! It was so great to “meet” them, and see all the different projects, patterns, and beautiful fibres! And I agree the felted bag looked terrific. It’s also helpful to hear ideas for how to cope with injuries that can impede knitting (which I have had as well, maybe even caused by knitting😉), e.g., knitting on bananas lol-love it! I love your channel and hope to see many more episodes 😊 Happy knitting!

    I heartily endorse the position that you knit what you are drawn to for your first sweater. When people ask what they should start with to learn I tell them to find something they like and start there - after all, it’s really just combinations of two stitches. If you like it, you are motivated- if you are bored, you are not!
