Thank you Kelly for sharing the Barbie clothes you brought back great memories of my childhood. My mom knit and crochet clothes for my doll also, unfortunately I dont have them. I am 65 and she would have been 100 Sunday. Great show you and Noelle do.
Susan, it’s wonderful that you have beautiful memories of your Mom and the love she stitched for you! Thank you for sharing!💜
Thanks both of you for the podcast! Kelli, I am a left handed crocheter as well. Kudos on learning from a right handed book. I just could not wrap my head around right handed crochet, I’m a skilled and lifelong needlewoman, and I was super confused being shown right handed, and it wasn’t until I got a leaflet at my big box craft store that was a ‘learn to crochet left handed’. I still can’t crochet right handed. I do a lot of things right handed, but not that. So often my projects are backward, but that makes little difference at times. Your crochet Barbie doll clothes are priceless. I have a collection my mother sewed for me, just exquisite stuff. Not sure a good way to preserve it. I thought of a shadow box. Anyway, appreciate you showing those treasures, and congrats on raising a son who recognized you might be interested in them.
Thank for the lovely feedback! The shadow box idea is a great one that I had not considered! I do most things right handed too but my brain can only support left handed crochet!😆
I love all your pattern choices. I always leave with notes and printing of patterns you gals share. Your podcast is in my top 5 fav's.
Thanks Mary, so nice to chat with you today!!!
Loved the Barbie clothes, Kelly....Thank you for sharing! Also, Noelle, For the Marie Wallin sweater... if cannot color the chart, you can write the color symbol on the yarn ball label for each color to try and keep it all straight in your mind....Good luck with it! So excited to see how you are coming along with it! I really love your podcast and hope you both do many more together! I missed your live one, so thank you for posting after so I could still enjoy it!
Thank you so much for watching! I will definitely be writing the symbols on the ball bands, especially since the some of the colours are close. I have a few things to finish before I start the sweater, but I’m really looking forward to it, the yarn and the colours are beautiful.
Thanks for a great podcast. Your knits are really interesting and it is great hearing about your experiences of patterns and yarns. Happy knitting!
Thanks Catherine. Glad you’re enjoying the podcast.
Love all your pieces all beautiful😃
Thank you so much Jeanne!
You guys are becoming one of m6 favorite podcasts! Many thanks for your time 🧶❤️🧶
Thanks for watching Holly, so glad you’re enjoying the podcasts.
I love your podcast!
Thank you so much for watching!
Another great podcast ladies! I so enjoy you both, and all your projects, thank you!!
Thanks so much for watching Jill, glad you’re enjoying the podcasts.
O my! I have a book very similar called 900 stitches patterns. Published in 1972, I bought it at the Hudsons Bay Store for $1.98.
Barbara, they may be oldies but they are still goodies!!😉
Thanks so much for another great podcast! I so enjoy each one!
Thanks Ann, glad you’re enjoying!
Hi Noelle. I don’t have that particular Marie Wallin book but I do have the Shetland book and it says somewhere that you can get a pdf copy of the book and gives you an email address to send your request to. I did that and I was then able to put the Yell cardigan pattern into KnitCompanion and knit it very successfully. So hopefully if you look in your book, it will have the same thing. I think it was near the end of the book somewhere.
Thanks so much. That is awesome, going to check that out right now. Just figured out how to colour a graph using the Magic Marker feature on Knit Companion so if I can get the PDF I’ll be all set. I also have the Shetland book and Yell is definitely on my list.
Found the note at the back of the book and have already emailed them, thanks again!
Hello- I am new to your podcast and I enjoyed it very much and learned a few new things. Kelly- thanks for sharing your Barbie clothes that you made; they were adorable. It reminded me of all the knit and sewed pierces that my mom and my aunt used to make for my favorite doll and Snoopy stuffed animal. Lovely memories.
Deepti, they were definitely a happy discovery for me too! Welcome to our channel...we’re so glad to have you here with us.😊
Lovely ladies, thank you so much for another podcast. It’s so helpful - UK will be in lockdown until March so I’m spending all my time with the knitting community.
I love knitting socks but I have been on a sweater kick (plus I usually knit them during meetings and surprisingly there were v little in Jan). I hope that I’ll be able to join your KAL soon - I miss knitting socks.
Thank you so much again for the podcast and brightening up my days 🤗
Thanks so much for the lovely comments Laura! I don’t know what we would have done without knitting during this pandemic! Socks are a wonderful project for Zoom knitting, or any time when you have to concentrate on something else but still want to knit. Luckily I have a lot of knitworthy people in my life who appreciate handknit socks.
I just looked up your cardigan and it’s already in my queue
So great to watch your latest podcast.
Kelly, I have the exact same Knitting Dictionary (800 stitches) that I remember buying in Montreal when my daughter was just a baby. That was 48 years ago!!! I referred to it a lot before Internet but picked it up again last night, looking for a shawl stitch pattern. Noelle, you never cease to amaze me with all that knitting going on! :-) Those Briggs & Little socks are very tempting indeed.
Keep up the great work ladies; I have February 7 noted in my agenda. Looking forward to that!
Colette, I’m happy I found my book as I can see lots of patterns that I can incorporate into projects, especially socks! Thank you for the encouraging feedback and we’re looking forward to spending time with you on Sunday🙂
Hi Colette, today is a perfect day for the Briggs and Little socks, cold and windy outside but the socks are nice and warm for inside!!
@@KnitsnPieces Same here (Québec City) just ordered the Tuffy yarn. :-)
Can’t wait to see your socks!!!
Thanks for sharing! Kelly - I had an old makeup suitcase like that for my Barbie's too. It was red and I have no idea what happened to it. My husband found a white one at a thrift store and bought it for me - I now use it to hold all my circular needles. I'd like to be able to attend the Live event, but I've booked myself into a class at the same time through KnitSocial. Have fun, I'd like to be able to join another one in the future.
Julie, you’re so welcome...it’s such fun to recall happy memories! We’re hoping to have many more lives if we survive our first one...fingers crossed! Enjoy your class🙂
Hi from a cold wet miserable Scotland, new subscriber and look forward to seeing more of your podcasts
Thanks so much Sylvia! It is cold, windy and snowy here today, perfect for staying inside and knitting!
@@KnitsnPieces definitely an evening for staying in and knitting
How/where do I go to join the sock kal? BTW, absolutely love your podcast. I watched all of your episodes in a week when I found you. I have learned so much! Wishing you all the best and please keep up the shows!
Thank you Margaret, you can join the Kal’s on Ravelry in the Knits n Pieces Group. There is a link under the video that will take you to the group in Ravelry. Can’t wait to see your socks!
So sorry that I won't be able to join you on Sunday for your live pod cast. I made one of my granddaughters a sweater with Nua August Storm. It turned out so beautiful and was lovely to knit with. And the lace pattern on the yoke showed up quite well.
Hi Donna, hopefully the live will go well and we’ll do it again, and hopefully we’ll meet you at a future date. Thanks for the info on the Nua, I’m so looking forward to knitting with it.
Kelly! Straight hair!!!
I can’t find the show notes 😟
@@marnieleemckay5751 Show notes: @t
First time straightening in a year! I could see more grey 😩. It’s also getting much too long...may have to take the scissors in hand since our shops are still closed.
If you click the down arrow button just below the bottom right of the video and scroll down you’ll see the link.☺️
Great episode ladies! I loved catching up with you both 😁 I watched another podcast the other day where the maker gave a tutorial on playing with adding colour to black and white graphs for colourwork! I will go find it for you.
Thanks Tracey!
Could it be Very Pink Knits? I know she was doing some tutorials, but I have not watched them yet.
@@rutharseneault5745 Hi Ruth, it is a podcast called Hundred Acre wool ua-cam.com/video/h31P3C4zxoY/v-deo.html
Another lovely episode, thank you. So much inspiration and encouragement to keep the needles moving. It would be lovely if you could give the yardage as well as the grams of the yarns you use. 😍😘
Thanks so much, will try and remember to include yardage, I agree the yardage is probably more important than the weight of the yarn.
Hi from a very cold Lancashire UK. Really loving ur podcast. I just wondered can we also enter ur kals and Mals from the UK?
Thank so much for watching. You certainly can join our make-alongs, we love to see makers from all over the world participate, looking forward to seeing what you’re making.
Our photocopier at work will email a pdf of a photocopy. I think it would be better than a photo for KnitCompanion, but I could be wrong. That's what I'd do for the Marie Wallin pattern. Her charts are gruesome. But, oh, the sweaters! If you figure out a way to make the chart in colour, I would be very interested.
Thank you Ruth, I just figured out how to colour a graph in KnitCompanion, using the Magic Marker feature, now I just need to determine the best way to get a PDF of the pattern into the KnitCompanion app. Another viewer let me know that there is info at the back of the Marie Wallin pattern book that gives info on getting the PDF, I think I am going to explore that option.
@@KnitsnPieces IF you can make a PDF file, you can store it in the Dropbox app. KC will download pdfs from Dropbox. I must check my MW books to see if I can find that information!
There is an email address on one of the last pages in the book that you can use to request digital versions of the charts, I’ve emailed them so hopefully I’ll hear back soon.
Are there any show notes? The show notes are so helpful
Hi Maria, Just posted the show notes, sorry they were a little late.
@@KnitsnPieces Thanks.
Is there a selfcare hashtage for the KAL? I can't find it for some reason.
Hi Mary, haven’t come up with one yet, we’ll have to figure that out before the next podcast.
Great episode Ladies, Noel that colour work sweater is stunning and when you showed all the yarns and Kelly's reaction was awesome.
Kelly did you do something to your hair?
Sue a.k.a. craftyknitter7
Thanks Sue! Straightened the curls....probably the first time in over a year. I wanted to see clearly just how many greys I’ve accumulated in this year 🤣🤣
@@KnitsnPieces haha you look great. I started growing out my grey in Aug 2019 and it is almost all grey now!! Hairdresser said people would kill for my hair hahaha
Lol, when you said Hey Siri my Siri lit up.
LOL good old Siri, always there when you don’t need her and doesn’t work when you do need her.
