    You asked, "what do I enjoy". Well I enjoy that you talk about your knitting, yarns and you quiet voice. As far as something to add to your UA-cam is tips and some trick that you have done as you knit your items.

    I appreciate your honesty. You didn’t like the way the yarn was dyed for your Love Note and you didn’t hide your displeasure. You didn’t name the dyer, which works for me, but you were ‘real’ in your review. You knit, or want to knit, items I would knit, out of yarns I knit with. I recently found you, and am enjoying your podcasts.

    • @OldeThymeKnits
      @OldeThymeKnits  Рік тому +2

      Yes, I know the ins and outs of dying yarn! It's not an easy thing, I am not here to publicly bash anyone, stuff happens, and I don't feel the need to run anyone over with the bus! Glad you are enjoying the podcast

    Watching your podcast is like sitting down with an old friend, sharing a cup of tea, and talking about our favourite subject - knitting. Please keep doing what you're doing: sharing your love of knitting with all its joys and challenges. (By the way, a challenge is a good thing.)

    Another great episode Marie. Thanks for the shout out to our local knitting group! I enjoy everything about your podcast but especially all the yarns and patterns you show. You find the most beautiful yarns! My goal for 2023 is to reduce my stash not increase it but the yarns you showed this time are so tempting. I am anxious to see what you knit from your subscription yarns in your future podcasts.
    And I absolutely share your pain on the white spots you found in your Indie died yarn. I encountered that same issue very recently and I am so disappointed in a project that I should have loved.

    • @OldeThymeKnits
      @OldeThymeKnits  Рік тому

    Hi Marie - I found your channel in Dec and have watched most of your previous podcasts. I appreciate your laid-back attitude and I like the setting into which you are filming. The small glimpses of your house looks lovely. Since I heard you talking about Knots of Love a few months back, I have started knitting hats for them - so thank you very much for that. And, since watching you I have learned about Palmer Yarn, Northwoods Yarn, and Sonder - all of which are new to me. There are a couple of yarn producers in my area that might be interesting to you (I live in western WA state). First one is Abundant Earth Fiber, who own a small mill on Whidbey Island and the 2nd one is The Lamb and Kid (the most beautiful cashmere yarn I've ever used). I am so happy that your channel is growing and congratulations on 500 subs!

    • @OldeThymeKnits
      @OldeThymeKnits  Рік тому

      Thank you for participating in Knots of Love, they are so awesome! I will check out your recommendations, although I already know of Lamb & Kid...yummy! Thanks so much for tuning in!

    As a fellow knitter, I find your podcast "real". I really enjoy you talking about your projects honestly. It doesn't sound rehearsed. I recently had a similar issue with hand-dyed yarn, where 3 of the 5 skeins I ordered were not saturated with dye and showed up as white stripes on my knitting. I am still trying to figure out how to knit my sweater with them. I like how your sweater turned out.

    • @OldeThymeKnits
      @OldeThymeKnits  Рік тому

      It definitely happens with hand dyed yarns, but that is kind of just part of what indie dyed yarns are! Thanks so much for watching!

    I enjoy your podcast so much because of your uniqueness. Sometimes, I feel like every podcaster is reading the same script and knitting the same things and projecting the same image.

    Oh my, those Magpie yarns are beautiful! I loved how your Love note sweater is looking, the stripes are subdued enough not to bother me. I am a very keen lace shawl knitter, and would love to make wearables now, just have to take the step to cast on a sweater. Any tips and tricks to confidently knit sweaters would be really appreciated by me. Thanks so much!

    • @OldeThymeKnits
      @OldeThymeKnits  Рік тому +1

      I would recommend the Flax from tin can knits as a first sweater. It is very in depth pattern and take it step by step. Thanks so much for watching!

    What a lovely podcast, Marie! My dear friend Beverly recommended your you tube channel. I’m so glad she did. I, too, plan on knitting a Love Note. I actually bought my yarn last summer along with the mohair but then there always seems to be another cast on for something else. Seeing as February is Valentines Day I’m thinking how perfect to cast it on then. Right now I’m knitting my granddaughter mittens with self striping yarn, which is so fun to knit with, as well as trying to finish some wips. Your yarn selections are so pretty.

    • @OldeThymeKnits
      @OldeThymeKnits  Рік тому +1

      Be sure to use markers between lace repeats on your love note, it'll save you! Good luck and thanks for jumping on my channel!

    Hi Marie, Love your podcast. Congratulations on 500+ subscribers. I found you thru The Autumn Acorn podcast. I really like your format of what's on your needles, off your needles and acquisitions. Your Cozy Comfort Throw is beautiful! I also knit one and it was a very soothing knit. I am knitting the Boreal Hat & Mittens pattern right now trying to use up some stash left over from my Altheda Sweater I knit this past fall. I am thinking about casting on the Love Note next. Thank you for sharing your experience. I think it's so helpful to show what works & especially what doesn't. Happy knitting!

    Hi! I found your channel because of the Love Note Instagram kal. It showed up on my feed and I jumped in figuring why not? My goal for 2023 was to stash bust and no buy/ low buy wool this year, I have a lot, all beautiful but when finding a great sale or pretty colours it’s too easy to buy “ just a couple more” lol. The kal was fast and fun and I got to see a lot of new to me knitters, very enjoyable. As is your podcast, I like your straightforward honest way of communicating. See you next time!

    First time watching your podcast and it is most enjoyable! Congrats on reaching 500+ subscribers - that's awesome! Well done on your Love Note sweater - it was almost like knitting 2 sweaters to end up with the one! I must say that to me, your FO looks gorgeous and I think the variegated yarns look lovely. I can see you are truly and blue and purple fan, - me too!
    With the one skein of the blue yarn that you didn't use for the Love Note perhaps you could make a pair of mitts? Happy Knitting!!

    Another fantastic episode! I said I was going to join your kal for the lovenote but I hadn’t found the yarn yet until I saw that yarn from magpie fibres. Oh my gosh it’s beautiful. Going to have to try and get some. I’ve been looking for a colourway like the dark one for awhile! Thanks for sharing your trials with your lovenote, although personally I really like how it turned out, but I understand the disappointment of it not being what you envisioned originally. Hope to see more soon.

    New viewer here! Luv your little podcast! Great inspiration here! I think your lovenote is lovely. Fit is great! I've had that disappointment of indy-died yarn in a sweater before. I didn't rip it though! My sweater ended up being a fade sweater, oh well. I too knit for grandies! I do luv ALL your projects! Thanks for sharing.

    I’m really enjoying your podcasts, congratulations on 500 subscribers 😊I enjoy how you aren’t drawn in by using all Indie dyed yarns, and you use a variety of different yarns. I have quite a few hand dyed yarns, and sometimes it’s hard to find a good project if you don’t want to always use them for socks. I’m leaning more towards solid and semi sold yarns

    Hi Marie
    I love your podcast and love that you insert photos as you go. It is very helpful.
    I would love to hear tips you may have when you insert heels to avoid the lovely holes that can happen..also for the underarms of your sweaters. I think you have a nice, easy format that you follow and are very organized. I also thought your love note was beautiful but am sorry you had to rip it out...huge bummer!!!

    Hello from Montana! I am new to you podcast and I found you through Cozy Meadow Knits podcast. I like doing KALs whether there is a prize or not. I like videos along the way with helpful suggestions of what works and what doesn't. I wish I would have heard the trick about using stitch markers for the lace repeats before I started the lace portion of my Love Note.
    On a different note, I'm not much of a shawl knitter because I don't wear them.

    • @OldeThymeKnits

    I just found your podcast today and I really enjoyed spending time with you. You are a natural at this and I appreciate your down-to-earth nature. That sucks about your Love Note experience. I've knit 3 of them and always enjoy it. That and the Ranunculus are my favs. I really want to try knitting some DK socks. Can you tell me how many stitches you cast on? I do 64 in fingering. Looking forward to watching many more of your podcasts

    Your Love note is beautiful, great fit! I was thinking of knitting one, but isn't the lace too open? Belen is a Spanish lady, living in Oxford. She's a great teacher and designer, and her podcast is fantastic. At this moment I'm enjoying knitting an "All the time" sweater with mini skeins!

    • @OldeThymeKnits

      The lace is definitely open, you need to wear something underneath, but it really is quite lovely. Thank you for the info on Belen, I will look her up! Thanks for watching!
