    I always enjoy your podcasts so much and look forward to sitting and knitting with you. It is particularly nice when it is
    has been a trying day and I retire for the knit with my knitting and Finnish Knitting Stories on my iPad. Thank you for the joy you give me.

    Life is too short! Definitely buy the 3 skeins of lighter wool you need for the project! I can tell your heart is with the lighter color and you will be happier with that choice! BTW- kudos to your husband for ordering a yarn that he knew you wanted! What a guy! And always helping with the children so you can record your podcasts! It’s those little thoughtful things that our hubby’s do that are so loving! My hubby will buy my favorite coffees for me even though he doesn’t drink coffee (I know- hard to believe), but it’s the little acts of love ❤️ that strengthen a marriage! They’re keepers! Hope you and your daughter get to feeling better!

    Another wonderful podcast! I so enjoy your podcast that I shared it with my knitting group, so you may have some new Canadian followers...moose and all! I think you should buy 3 more balls of the yarn you love for the sweater...life is short, knit only what you love and brings you joy! I'm not to familiar with Finnish knitters, but I loved the Maire dress that you knit by Vera, so that would be my choice..Had you considered opening a Kofi account, so we can buy you a coffee and you can use the money to support your channel? The fox sweater looked wonderful on you..perfect fit!

    You are such a breath of fresh air. I love your enthusiasm and celebrate your 5000 followers with you. I think it was so clever to suggest that we look at Finnish designers. I filtered by language and realized I had many patterns in my library and favorites. I also saw Joji do a vlog yesterday and she is knitting a sweater with Finnish yarn. I couldn’t figure out why it sounded so familiar and then I realized it is one you have highlighted and knit with.
    I like Wavws by tiina huhtaniemi, lemon slice by suvi knits, still light tubic by veera and so many more. Thank you for celebrating with us.

    Hi Jana what a great idea for the heel I have made many socks and tried different heels I have the same problem with my high instep foot and the sock becomes too tight and not as comfortable as they could be seeing your heel construction makes me think to try your kind of heel I think that would fit my foot much nicer than a regular heel. Thank you so much for sharing this 💡

    Oh my gosh, after commenting I've just realised if your cardigan has been designed by a Finnish designer, then I'd absolutely could knit it!!! so... let's add it to the choice!!! I love the cardigan you're wearing, so I'd choose it!!!

  • @vivianpowell1732
    @vivianpowell1732 Рік тому

    How very nice that Cynthia sent you the Lumme sweater pattern from Ravelry. You asked for our opinions about the yarn you're thinking of using. My choice would be the brown to go with the pearly ecru color. That combination is beautiful, and I believe you said you already have enough yarn in both of those colors. I think the brown yarn is a better choice for Lumme than the lighter color yarn you like so much. The brown and ecru really glow together.

    Thank you for a lovely chat. You made me laugh with the choice of yarns for your lumna (is that what it is called?) : my heart went with the paler contrast colour, so I reckon to buy some more of that! You look gorgeous in your fox jumper. Beautiful. And the woodland cardigan: totally love the colourwork bear and moose/deer. All just wonderful. Vera has a new design out with a very pretty cable panel: I forget what it is called.

    Congrats on 5000! Filtering my favorites for Finnish language I was pretty amazed how many Finnish designers were in there. And how many give us their patterns for free, like Sari Nordlund's evening delight and Tiina Kuu's gorgeous Keisarin Morsian colourwork socks. Whether I win or not I think I have to start contemplating yarn for Anna Johanna's bobelo cardigan

    Hi, Jana. Congratulations for your 5000 subscribers. You deserve it. Your Into the Wild is just gorgeous, and this darker green suits you as it is not next to your face, and th top part is in lighter colours. For your next project, I prefer with the lighter colour, the contrast is too strong with the dark gray. I would choose the Cotton Sky Sweater from Veera Valimaki, the ideal sweater for Springtime.

I have my eye on the woodland sweater but Anna Johanna , I made a love note ( very expensive version as was keen) but unfortunately do not love it and it has never been worn as I hand knit to be different and every knitting environment I find myself there are Lovenotes,, it has become the uniform or badge of honour , please keep sharing Finnish yarns and designers 😊

    This is a good trick to have projects here and there in the house!! 👍👍. I have many projects, and depending on my activities, I knit zéro brain while reading, more complexe in front of TV. 😊😊
    Crochet is a little bit more complexe, because I cannot crochet without looking at it constantly... 🙁
    My sons are now adults, so I don't have this constraint 👍. But, I am working a lot and not many times left to knit 🙁🙁.

    Congratulations on reaching 5,000 subscribers. I think Grain by Anna Johanna looks a nice knit especially with the colour work top and bottom!! Take care and have a great week.

    Congratulations on 5,000 subscribers! I’m not surprised at all that so many people adore your “keep in real” style. I’m a huge fan!
    I would love to have an excuse to cast on Kuutar by Sari Nordlund. It’s a pattern I do not yet own.

    Please tell your Hubby THANK YOU for watching the children so you could visit with your knitting buddies! So sorry to hear Sophia was sick all week, and that you seem to be getting a cold. Drink lots of hot tea with lemon and honey as it will really help your throat. I just really love your fox sweater! It is so rustic looking and suits you well. If you make another, maybe with a dark sage green and keep the foxes the same color??? I think it would look totally different. I really want to make one as it is so cute and when I wear it I will be reminded of you my friend! If I would win a prize for your Finnish Knitting Pattern I would like to knit CAMELLIA by Anna Johanna. I am trying not to buy yarn either as I have so much stash. So, I think this year I will try to be more creative and knit more sweaters with colorwork. Your Woodland Cardigan is so cute as well. You always bring me so much joy! I hope you will be able to rest and won't get a full cold....you don't need that in your life. I actually like the darker shade with the mohair for your next sweater project. I think from what I see on the screen that there is not as much as a contrast with the other. Sock Heels.....Knittingtraditions has two sock patterns that are with her grandma's sock heel, and it is really differnt. I think it fits a high instep really well....I have that problem too. Also, Roxanne Richardson, Rox Rocks Podcast has a whole series of tutorials on sock heels and how to make them fit a high instep. She has the same problem as well. She is a US Master Knitter so her tutorials are wonderful. I will be looking forward to Friday's Podcast if you are able to. Stay well and safe! Hugs, Sandy

    Your fox sweater is beautiful and looks so nice on you, Jana. My family on my mom’s side is from Finland (Jokirinta), I’ll have to find our where again! Looking at Anna Johanna’s patterns I would choose the Verso cowl pattern to win! Thank you Jana.

    Dear Jana, this is so sweet of you! I signed up last week and have been watching your stories every day! I would like to go for a shawl pattern by Anna Johanna and it is called Shake it up. Congrats on you more than 5000 subscribers!

    How great- 5k subscribers! But you deserve it. I love your fox sweater. I see that some rows are 3 colours and that would freak me out but maybe one day I would try it. For now two colours is more than enough 🤓 and that’s what lovely Lumme has too. I had to look it up when you mentioned it and it’s so pretty! It reminded me of a sweater that I had as a teenager. I saved and saved for that sweater and that would be lovely to knit. I’d love to see all your WIPs if you have time to show us! 🤩

    Just came across your Channel while knitting tonight and it was the fastest 46 mins of my weekend! Enjoyed it very much. Thank you for the giveaway. I’m sticking around whether I win or not.
    The Verso Beanie by Jenny Ansah has me feeling all the spring feels!!
