I'm so glad I found your videos! Thank you!

Incredible!!! Thank you for your effort to collect all these Infos. I loved your pattern choices and the yarns you found for them. Theybwere actually way prettier than the High Street ones 😂

Finally catching up on podcasts. Your colourwork projects are so beautiful! Never thought of looking at Vinted for yarn. I need to try selling some of my yarn there and seeing what else other people have. Thanks for the tip!

I embroider, knit, crochet, quilt, sew

❤🌈🧶 Very interesting, thank you 🥰

I love this video! Muchas gracias por mostrarnos alternativas para recrear piezas que podemos ver en tiendas, y hacerlas nosotros mismas. En especial, gracias por el dato de la cashmere yarn. Saludos desde USA 😊

oh this is sooo interesting, thank you for doing all this research

Hello! I'm in if you do a Andrea Mowry Challenge/KAL. I'm so embarrassed to say how many of her patterns I've got so I'm not going to fess up. But it's a lot. 👀A LOT. I have actually made some, and I've started and frogged some too. Anyhoo, I'm in. 👍

Really enjoyed this, so tempted to try something with the classic cashmere.

Love these types of videos 😻 Recently I fell in love with a red cashmere sweater from COS, decided to count the price of Eco Cashmere vintage by Gepard for it, and understood that the price was reasonable 😅

An interesting podcast - thank you. Regarding the zippered sweater, you need to add in the cost of the zip. Best wishes, Alex

Rebecca, great video! I really enjoyed the way you compared pattern, yarn, cost etc… I’m going to think about the Eton Slipover- I have some de Rarum Natura Gillat that may work for this pattern.

Really enjoyed the details in this podcast and the styles, patterns and yarns that you chose. Very useful info. Thank you!

Drops daisy pills and felts very fast so I recommend holding it with a lace weight yarn

Love these episodes! Thank you for doing the research for me/us. I also needed an excuse to purchase Cardiff Cashmere 😂❤

Loved this video! I love all of the ideas and modifications you mentioned!! So helpful!

I really enjoyed this video!! Thank you.

Watching you with dinner 🩵🩵

Wonderful video Rebeca. Talking about cashmere was really interesting. I have not tried it myself but heard to be so super luxurious. I ordered a cashmere hat from H&M that was on a pricy side but the feel of it was not quite as what I expected... Actually this would be great small project to dive into cashmere rabbit hole :)

Another great option for the Arket sweater could be the purpurea and purpurea light by Leti Lutsak! It not only comes in 2 weights but also comes with a few different sleeve and body options 👌

Thanks for the great video Rebeca! I always love these high street dupe roundups. Find myself guessing which patterns the person is going to pick.

What a charming episode. You seemed so very happy, so pleased with life. I was excited for you when I saw your new Singer! And that your parents are both sewists! Wow, that´s fabulous. It was sweet to hear about your dad checking the machine, giving it a test and showing you how to use it. That´s lovely. Both my parents are gone and I miss such moments with them. Enjoy the machine! (And I hope your friend didn`t bail on you!)

Such a nice group of patterns. I hope you make the Claret because it´s the one I would choose! I learned to knit making bottom up (seamed) sweaters, so that was my introduction to garments. Now that I know how to make top down sweaters, I rarely want to do bottom up anymore. I don´t mind knitting them, but I HATE the seaming part. I actually decided to rip out a sweater that was almost done (I had one sleeve left to sew up and attach to the body) simply because I was so done with the seaming. I really dislike it. Anyway, I think the items all are lovely, so any one you choose first will be good. And help you move forward to doing them all!

I love your Lentos... and your joy in your knits!

Some well known designers have goofy personal gauges, often very, very loose with light weight yarn. I notice on Nordiska that the gauge is supposed to apply to both stockinette and the colorwork (already a red flag that I'm not going to match pattern gauge), and that the designer says needle sizes are just a suggestion. That suggests to me that she already had trouble with test knitters not getting anything similar to her gauge. Doing a search of ravelry projects by the wrod 'gauge' turns up plenty of baffled comments. I'd use whatever yarn and needle combo gets you a nice fabric, then do math to see which size you should knit. The suggested yarn is a single with some linen content, so that may be making it work up oddly compared to a more typical plied 100% wool yarn too.

Excited for you to enter your Andrea Mowry era!! An idea for possibly using the cream in the cuffs would maybe be to stripe it? Kinda like a tennis sweater cuff? Either way, it is looking stunning so far!

I love the socks, sooo cute. Have you watched the moomins (90s version)? I feel like your ghost looks a bit like the groke haha

Good for you. It’s important to recognise when you need more space. ❤

Oh geez the message today of pacing yourself and taking things off your plate was something I really needed to hear!! Thanks so much!! Also I am down for some fearless knitting challenges next year. I am afraid but eager to steek a cardigan... maybe all over colourwork. Terrifying but I want to soooooo badly!!

Your colour work sweater is AMAZING!👏I may need to also cast on a Stria Hat!!! xxx

Yes! Good to make the decision before you’re forced to by poor health or something, I am a total fan of slowing down and keeping life manageable. Three weeks vs two weeks is a great choice too. I’m terrible at posting on Instagram but I’m working on a sweater spin and doing some bits and pieces of knitting in the evening. No sweaters finished yet but seeing the end goal for some of them at least.

The Stria hat looks great- I’m now interested in the pattern so I might learn the stitch pattern. The sweater looks amazing- I always look at this designer’s work and think I will make one one day. I enjoy your podcasts ☺️

It’s so important to manage your time so you’re less stressed. I love the t shirt! That sock is adorable!

Mayflower jumper is gorgeous in the blue ❤ I never cast on my percy socks and now I want too! I am proud of you for acknowledging that you needed to slow down. I’m sure alot of us need to do the same. I’ll be here whenever you post. Take care of yourself ❤

I’d always prefer to knit in the round rather than in pieces, but having said that, every time I do mattress stitch I can’t get over how clever and neat it is. Like magic. I often think back to when I was taught it and we had to do the stitching in a complete contrast colour. So, for instance, the knitted pieces were grey and we had to sew them up in bright red. And when it was finished you couldn’t see the red at all. Brilliant. Try it!

Good for you listening yourself and taking the time you need! Also, for sharing the message about doing that. I really enjoy your videos, and clicked the bell to be notified, so I'll look forward to a video whenever you upload.

I think the hat looks nice! I can't wear beanies at all... The sweater is gorgeous and really suits you!

oh I love that beautiful navy for your colourwork sweater. What is the name of the colour?

Good for you Rebeca for making time for yourself!! Without YOU there can be none of this so you need to take care of yourself first (it's the mom coming out in me!). Content creators put too much pressure on themselves to stick to a rigid schedule - I know these take time and a lot of effort so whenever we see you, it's a pleasure but shouldn't stress you out! Your hat and your colorwork sweater are just stunning. I just finished my first colorwork project - a cowl (will share in the Falls Feel Knit Along) and you have inspired me to try a colorwork sweater! Thanks for your honesty and take care of yourself!💓

Thank you so much for your super fun projects, I will look forward to your next podcast, and of corse you must take the time that you need for all the life projects! We are just happy to see you whenever, kind regards🙏

Hello Rebecca, Actually knitting cables is more easy knitting flat, because then you make the cables on the right side row and knit the stitches at the wrong side row as they appear. So you have to concentrate one row and relax the other row. Non the less I prefer knitting in the round, but with cables you have to pay more attention in the round. Thank you for this nice episode, Happy knitting, Uschi

I feel like the color choice paralysis provides a great opportunity to do some creative swatching! I immediately think of making a series of zippered pouches, or even a pillow with four quadrants, each one being a different combo... I am very much a process knitter though and this would be a time consuming diversion/color experiment.

I’m still working on my Anker Summer Shirt. Here in my part of Californi it’s 100 degrees so very fitting. I was very inspired by the wave sweater and I had the yarn and swatch 2 times. I’m nervous about checking the gauge because I would die if I had to make a third swatch

I ❤ the videos!!

Definitely the Paul Klee sweater! I have my eye on it, too, and I have the same issue with color paralysis. lol I'm a neutral-color person, so I'm leaning toward something dark and moody with low-contrast colors. I have to look at the knitted projects to see if it may be possible to knit this pattern using a long color-changing yarn like Schoppel-Wolle Zauberball Crazy. Fn to think about!

I think the Caitlin Hunter pattern is stretched when blocked so that's why the guage comes up a bit different.

Lovely patterns. It sounds like you have a lot of fear round knitting things out of your comfort zone. I wouldn't put so much pressure on things. It's just knits and purls. I hope you go for it!

Love your podcast! I finally started The Pressed Flower Shawl, I have been looking at it for a while now and found it intimidating but it’s actually very easy pattern to remember. Enjoy your knitting.
