I’ve said it before, but it was your video tutorials that taught me stranded colourwork! Thank you thank you thank you! Also, you have theeeeee best eye for colours! You are adjusting awesomely to braces. I had them as a teenager and one of my best friends got them as an adult like you. The time will just fly by! You are such a delight to watch on a Friday morning! Have a great weekend!
You’re an absolute JOY to watch and “hang with”.
Hi Summer: Here’s a thought - tuck the ball band in your cake while winding and there it would be when you use the yarn in the future. I look forward to your Friday videos - Thank you! 🧦
I can’t get enough of your socks!! I bought your book and am watching all your back episodes.
I knit socks more than anything else but was starting to get bored of them until your book and videos came along and inspired me all over again! Love this one!
Oh my gosh!!! The octopus reference has been my phrase for many years! I say I wish I were an octopus so I could knit, cook, crochet , sew all at the same time!! Or knit 4 pair of socks at once!
Hi love your videos and can’t wait to get my book in the mail
You'd need to knit 4 socks at once if you were an octopus 😊
@@chrissy24-7 maybe two at a time on magic loop….😀
I know the feeling so much in my head I want to do but I too only have 2 arms!
So glad I found your channel last fall. Im upping my sock game. Wouldn’t you know , something is happening in my wrist…. Not carpal tunnel. Been there done that. I’m seeing the hand Dr next week. I’m knitting anyway and taking otc pain meds and resting it. I tried last spring to up my sock game and something interfered with my knitting. I’m bound and determined that 2024 I will knit more than 2 pairs of socks🧦🧶🧦. Love watching you knit and love all your color combinations
Beautiful porch 🥰 oh glories of southern heat 🥵 north Texas is the same miserable summers. Adorable socks!
Hi Summer! I love your book! Your book is how I found you on UA-cam! I want to thank you for your sock goodness and for sharing that Designing Women is on Hulu! I loved it then and I am knitting socks while watching it now! Thanks, Holly
I am ready to give color work a try and will definitely be using your tutorials!! Thank you for sharing!! LOVE your podcasts!!!
Summer I love your videos!! I just got your book and made some fun striped ribbed socks (branching out with the colors). I love them!! Thank you for being so kind and inspiring 🤍🧦🧶
Thx so much for pulling yarn from your stash each week❣️🧶🧦
I haven’t tried colorwork in socks yet, although I’ve knit colorwork sweaters. I’m going to try it with this sock. I didn’t see it when you first showed the colors, but you nailed it. I’m really enjoying your podcast! Thanks for sharing your process.
Love it all, the socks (of course) the porch and your living room, that cute little Beesly, and you🌸. Who is the adorable Husky who snuck in there?
Yarn and You in Farmersville introduced me to your amazing book the sock project today. Amazing color combos
I'd love a tutorial on how I can use excel to create charts!
Summer,
Your socks are beautiful!
I stumbled upon your channel earlier in the week, I watched last week’s episode and immediately bought your book, which I absolutely LOVE! I’ve been knitting socks for years, and I always have a pair on my needles, they make fantastic take along projects and I wear my wool socks every day, unless it’s over 75 degrees, but if I’m hiking and it’s 80+, I’m wearing wool socks. I’m looking forward to knitting your patterns and trying your tips.
BTW, I can’t remember ever laughing and smiling so much, as I do when watching your videos; I’m making my way through your other videos and they’re so much fun and you’re projects are so inspiring. Thank you!
Same here! Watched one video, ordered the book (pre order here in NZ and delivery mid June) and then have been watching all the back episodes and videos I can….i feel inspired again to get back to knitting socks, I had kind of fallen out of love with t(em but Summer has given me so much inspiration! 😊
I love the socks and enjoy your channel. Are the front porch chairs from a big box store?
Good Morning Summer ... It always makes me happy to open up my computer and see a new UA-cam video from you. Of course I bought your pattern but first I am trying to knit all the socks from your book - The Sock Project. I love the fact that you include the names of the different yarns which you have used to make the beautiful socks. You have a great eye for color. Also, thanks for the info. about the needles. Enjoy your week!
I like the 9" for colorwork too! I find turning sock inside out and knitting from inside helps my tension
I love your tips on colorwork! AAANNNDDD, I just got your book! It was the last one in the shop (Chattanooga Yarn) and full of fingerprints of the people who came before me but I nabbed it like it was the winning lottery ticket! Already in love with the tips and patterns!!!!!
Hello from Kuwait! I know something about refinery fumes… 😂 I have only recently discovered your videos and they bring a lot of happiness and joy to my knitting! I have ordered your book and cannot wait to knit extra pair of socks when I go back home (not much use of woolly socks in the desert 😂😂😂) Have a fab weekend ❤
Hello Summer 🤗I love your videos and your pattern so much 🥰sorry my English is not so good 😅I’m from Germany
Have a nice weekend 😘
An idea to save the label, when you are cakeing the yarn, put the label in the middle of the cake
The sock was amazing! Love how the pink variegated yarn worked out. I don't know how you do it!
First of all, that bright blue is your color! You look stunning in it. Your hair and glasses go so well with it. I love those frames. Ok…now…you have always been my inspiration! When I found you a few years ago, I devoured your tutorials, ordered the “ color wok needles” and bought most of your patterns. ( couldn’t buy everyone because I wanted all of the yarn, as well). Anyway…I’ve yet to do one pair of color work socks! 😂😂. But this is it! My goal is to complete my socks I’m knitting now and then give the color work a whirl! I have some oral surgery coming up, and if I am able to concentrate, I will begin the pair then. I may even be able to send you a photo on IG. Btw, I wanted to add that it is so nice to see you knit English rather than continental. You are a fast knitter, too. I always felt badly that continental is just not that comfortable for me ( which is funny since I’m left handed). Thank you so much for your time, talent, and creativity. You certainly are “da bomb”. ❤❤❤.
Hi Summer, I have really been enjoying your videos!!! I love knitted socks but tend to feel bogged down while knitting them, so you have really inspired me to enjoy knitting my socks more and to have fun with colors. As I have been watching your past few videos I have been knitting myself some Regia self-striping socks in a coral, lime green, rosy brown and light gray colorway that I love for Spring. Also your house and your porch are beautiful!
I enjoyed that so much! Your socks are amazing. I just love your house. We don’t really have houses with front porches here in Scotland, at least not where I live, but I did live in Australia for a number of years and I can see similarities in house styles. I would love a front porch to sit and knit in, but the reality is it would probably be too wet or windy or freezing for most of the year. I suppose we can’t have it all. 🤷♀️ You did a great job sprucing up your porch, although I really didn’t think it was too bad to begin with! 👍💕
Summer, you are so darling…..your energy and enthusiasm are beautiful and you are gifted with creativity. Please be nice to yourself and thank you for sharing. Your new friend and follower, karen from Gaithersburg, md.
What to comment on first: gorgeous socks, fun porch glow up, the weaving in ends/listen to an old fave album tip, more vampire diaries, leaning in too far when on camera. I get you. Huge fan! Thank you for such fabulous content.
Love your videos!! I'm a new listener/watcher and love your sense of color. Keep bringing them on! Going to try the shortie needles for color work as it's difficult with magic loop. I didn't know why though until I watched your video! Thank you!
I received The Sock Project as a gift (I hinted first) and I am loving it! I don't know where to start. I might have to do a side project already! These new socks are great!
This summer I am going to tackle colorwork socks! I just got the pattern and a set of 9 “ circular needles. I love your knitting adventures!!❤
Hi summer, I've purchased the sock pattern last night and am looooving making my first ever colour work sock. And..... Have pre ordered your book. I lovingly own over 30 pairs of my hand knit socks. Theyre amazing to make. Both DK and 4 ply. Loving your videos. Thank you. Di in UK xxxx
Did you hear us all yelling for the pink variegated. Those socks are so fun. I'd make a ton in different colors, too. Great way to use variegated yarns. ❤ The porch looks so pretty and cozy. I'll be right over with my knitting. LOL.
I love those socks! I just got your Sock Project book in the mail and I can’t wait to dive in!
When you cake up your yarn skeins you can wrap the label around the outside of the cake and secure it with a piece of tape. This is assuming you like to pull the working yarn from the middle. I used to fold up the label and tuck it into the center of the cake but that was super annoying when knitting. The label around the outside works like a charm! 15:49
I’m so excited! My copy of your book has just arrived!! I relate to plain jeans and tees with bright happy socks in colours I could never wear close to my roseacia red face!!❤❤❤ 🎉🎉
Those socks! I want to copy them. 🎉 I am trying to procure the yarn and well distractions, distractions.
This will make you laugh when I tell you I watch your show on my 60” HD TV so I really do get to see every pore on your face. I ma glad you have a nice face. 😂😂😂❤
Your porch looks adorable!! I love the curtains!! I am inspired first I am looking for yarn like yours now u am figuring out where to hang curtains!! It looks nice when you are sitting there all breezy! We have 33 mph wind my yarn would end up in the neighbors cow pastures 😂😂
I love knitting 🧶
I am so excited my copy of your book will be here tomorrow just in time for my week long staycation! I’m a fairly experienced with knitting basic socks but I’m so excited to finally give colorwork socks a try!
The nap ❤ Got the pattern and am ready for a sleepless night, good thing I watched this on a friday 😅 I just pre ordered your book today, it’s supposed to arrive at my local bookstore during the first week of may and I’m super excited about it! It’s still pretty cold and very wet outside where I live, so I really need all’ em socks!
The socks turned out great! I haven’t attempted color work yet. Your porch looks wonderful to sit and knit. This video was a lot of fun.
You have inspired me to go outside my comfort zone with color. I ordered several bright colors of Jawoll yarn today ☺️
Wow! Those are such fabulous socks! I’m not sure if anyone has mentioned it but I think the main colour for those socks is Hedgehog Fibres - Sweet Pea…I think 🤔
I have just knit my first pair of socks!!! I hadn’t been knitting for very long when I happened upon one of your videos and now I’m hooked on sock knitting 😂. I’ve started my second pair of vanilla socks -taking your advice and going crazy on vanilla. 😂. I am definitely going to watch your color work video for future projects. Thanks Summer. I love your videos!!
My mom loves Vampire Diaries she has all the DVDs I read the book in high school and just couldn't get into the show maybe I'll give it a try again. I'll start once I finish Queen Charlotte on Netflix. I love watching you create your socks. My book will finally be here next week I did get the ebook too because I couldn't wait.
This was a SUPER FUN video to watch from design through completed pair! Thanks! And, thanks for the details on your favorite needles! I'm off to order some right now!
Great fun. Thanks for your inspiring socks - love them! 💕🧦🧶🧦💕
That was a perfect match on the socks with the pink variegated yarn!! Love the porch. We need a knitting party on your gorgeous porch!!
I loved the quote about taking on too much. You should just wait until we all knit all of your socks to see it in many different palettes. 🎨 do you provide hashtags?
I am really enjoying your channel. I love your approach to color. I have some variegated sock yarn that I’ve been struggling with, and now I have some ideas for it. I laughed when you talked about gameifying weaving in ends, as I had already decided to see how many ends I could weave in while I watched you today. I started on the last tail by the time your outro started. 😊
The socks are beautiful!
Love love LOVE the socks! Thank you for the coupon code. Just bought it. I’m finishing a pair of socks for my son size 10 1/2 men’s. And I can’t wait till they are done! Because they are a dark grey blue with flecks of burgundy. And it’s BORING me after watching so many of your colorful videos and looking through the your new book!!! Lol! Not really….but almost boring. 😊
I thought it was a wig on the couch next to you but it was a doggo 😆
Just bought your pattern because these socks look awesome & I will finally tackle colorwork socks!!😊
Received your book as a Birthday gift!🎁
Love the Braces!
Pretty, pretty, pretty socks, porch, braces what have you it's all good. Thanks for another fun video. Have a blessed weekend friends!
Recently found your channel! Yes, I have been Bing watching 😊
You are delightfully Fun!
My absolute favorite item to knit is socks. I have one to three pair on my needles at a time.
I ordered your book today! 🎉
Have a lovely week and keep climbing that rock wall!
Love the socks. I have a few skeins of verigated yarn and this pattern would be perfect!
Those socks are amazing! 🤩
Thanks, Summer. Just bought your book and will now forage into colorwork 😬(first time). Love your color combinations.
Beautiful socks! I love color knitting, and have knit many, many different color work hats. I am ready to expand into socks, and your episode was an inspiration. I love the porch-so peaceful. I hear you with the refinery odors. I grew up in a town near a paper mill and when the inversion sent those lovely odors of rotten eggs into our valley-it was NOT delightful. We also had many lumber mills with teepee burners in town, so lovely odors were plentiful.
❤❤loved that sock!!!!!🎉🎉🎉
So much excitement on a Friday!!!!
Your porch looks so perfect for chilling !!!
Thanks so much summer!!!!
Elaine ❤️🏠
Love your videos! You make me smile every time. Your book is fabulous and I enjoyed learning new sock techniques and patterns. Keep it up!
Love love love!!! 💕
The socks are wonderful 🎉
I can definitely relate to feeling behind all the time, thanks for this reminder :) Such cute socks!!
Thank you so much for the inspiration and the coupon code! I purchased the pattern and I also made socks from inspiration from your last weeks video! Love your podcasts so much!
Omg i love your Vonnegut t-shirt
Your variegated color looks like Hedgehog Fibers' "Pinkmas" ! I'd love to know your other colors ! Love the pattern !
First time watching your video and already loving your giggles 🤭, thanks for making me smile 🙌🏻😊. Knitted your socks a few times, never tried colour work though, so I might just 🤗
Love love love your socks….great colors💗
I thought when you were leaning in you had a sock knitting secret to tell! You just keep being you- joy to watch! Glad to find another person crazy about the craft too!
The colors really go well together.
Love your videos! You are so funny and I love tuning in!
So fun! Adorable socks and love your porch!
I’m always inspired by your videos. I just purchased the lovely pattern now off to my stash to start my pair.
Thank you!
When you gave your tip of picking an album you haven’t listened to in forever… No joke Green Day Dookie instantly popped into my head as my album choice as well!
I like to save the labels of all the socks I knit each year. I put them into a ziplock bag and write the name of the person I knitted the socks for on the label. This practice helps me remember what I knitted for each person, and it also includes the care instructions in case they forget. Gosh, I just love your videos.
If you have a Vampire Diaries hangover when it's finished I recommend watching The Originals.
Those socks are gorgeous,😍
Great Vidio
Great sock
Great porch
Made over 40 pairs last year
I am behind this year on pair # 15
That dark zig zag looks like an ankle bracelet! Love these!
The nap 😂😂😂😂
Omg I had no idea you had a ytube❤❤ I love love love your patterns. I just bought your latest sock book and I am just loving it so much. Your new porch area looks lovely and I really enjoyed how natural your video was.
Your porch looks great! I love your videos. I got your book, I'm knitting socks! 🙂🧦
Summer, those socks are insanely cute. And, no, I don't do colorwork. :)
I have no idea how you pick your colors, but they are amazing! I would never put the same things together that you do. It’s my loss I love what you do!
I loves these so much. Your design style is so wonderful. Would you ever do a non-knitting video about your T shirt collection. Maybe a fashion style video. Your casual funky style is so fun.
Love the socks and off to buy the pattern and your porch is lovely thank you for your great work 😊😊
Love your channel ❤️ you always make me smile x
I’m totally enjoying your videos, you are engaging, especially when you get close to the camera…. Have you ever thought about doing a how too video on working with an excell spread sheet?
I'm dealing with a clogged drain today. It' frustrating waiting for the plumber *but* your video cheered me right up so I bought the sock pattern! Thank you so much.
I too, have been watching an obscene amount of vampire diaries while knitting socks😂. I’ve been bingeing your videos and have been super inspired to knit more fun and colorful socks💕💕
A party in a sock! Porch looks fabulous. Thanks Summer
Love your video's, loooooove your colour choices for the socks! Ordered your book. Will have to wait for a few weeks before it arrives to The Netherlands, but it'll be worth waiting for. Thanks for your happy video's!
You make the best videos! The colours are perfection!! I remember the pain of braces it will get easier I promise. I love when you get in close with the camera it’s that great enthusiasm of yours bubbling over that makes the video a joy to watch.
Summer I got your book today! I'm so excited to read it and knit some more socks(but I gotta get 3 or 4 patterns off the needles first, lmao).
I love your videos! You make me smile every time you laugh. And your braces are stinkin’ adorable! Your book will be delivered today. I can’t wait!
I love them! I will definitely try when I’ve built up a stash of sock yarn 😊
I knit a lot of socks and it started becoming dull for me. Since coming across your podcast, that has changed and I am excited to start knitting some of your colourful patterns. I live in the UK, and have now pre ordered your book! You are a joy to watch. Love what you did to the porch. 🪴
