    loved this Lily Kate. Thanks for all the details. I agree - your chunky simple oatmeal double yarn jersey is beautiful - will have to make I believe. 💚

    I always love having a new Lily Kate video to watch - I know I'm always going to learn something new about construction issues etc, as well as getting to look at pretty knits ❤️

    Oh my god I am so happy I saw you coming up with short rows for the shoulder line. I knew that short rows work much better than increase line, I also dont like the bunching. But I was lazy to design my own sweater. + the short rows on the sleeves! You are amazing 💓 Waiting for the pattern a lot!

      Glad you like it! Short rows are just my favourite thing 😅 Thank you!

    Lamana is one of my all-time favourite yarn brands! 😍 Love both Como / Como Tweed and Premia. 🥰 I have actually knitted your Lawrenson Sweater in Como Tweed and your Surpass Sweater in Como 😁
    Thanks for the great podcast, as usual, and hope you got to enjoy that knitting session in your garden enjoying the sun and some tea! ❤

      They’re such pretty yarns aren’t they! I did manage to fit in a little bit of sunny knitting before the sun disappeared 🥰

    Great podcast, informative and your designs are always lovely. Looking forward to seeing more of everything and anything you want to share. I'm currently knitting socks and CO 1 right after another. Who knew Id get such joy from a small thing.

    Very light yarn has sometimes a tendecy to grow side wise. I had this surprise with drops alpaca buclé a few years ago.

    I'm working on my Tonight top! Up to the armhole double knitting so I might need to put it down for tonight and wait for the brain power to do it

    • @lilykatemakes
      @lilykatemakes  3 місяці тому

      Yay! The armhole edging takes time but it makes such a difference!

    • @theknitsewcro
      @theknitsewcro 3 місяці тому

      @lilykatemakes NGL, the armhole edging was the deciding factor in knitting this wonderful top. It's the point of difference that just elevates it from other similar patterns. It's hilarious, I raved about it to my boss because I plan on wearing the finished item to work and now she asks me where is it. I told her she can rush my actual work, not my knitting work.

    Hopfully swatching the colour work and then switch to stocking stitch will save alot of ripping out in the dots sweater.

    • @lilykatemakes
      @lilykatemakes  3 місяці тому

      Hopefully yes! Although I find gauge is often very different from the swatch to the actual item, and this often happens with test knitters too. It’s a good starting point but never 100%!

    I guess the slopped shoulder one is more sandy marled ❤❤❤❤that’s the pattern I love to get 😊❤

    • @lilykatemakes
      @lilykatemakes  3 місяці тому

      It is a lovely sandy colour! Thanks for watching 🥰

    Thank you very much for the patience to explain! One question, for the blue sweater, round yoke, the raglan line most be longer than for a simple raglan sweater? Thank you!

    • @lilykatemakes
      @lilykatemakes  28 днів тому

      thank you for watching! It's not a raglan so I assume you mean the yoke depth? I'd say it's pretty standard for a relaxed fitting sweater :)

    • @evacopae4553
      @evacopae4553 28 днів тому

      Yes, I mean the yoke depth, can you tell me please în centimeters? I am trying now a round yoke sweater. Thank you very much!

    Nice stuff, but just a tip. Hold the knitwear up for a longer time and keep it still for a few seconds.
