    Omg these girls are my cousins and they are just as beautiful, talented and kind IRL as they are in their show! They are always wearing their own clothes and I can tell you, they look professionally made! If you want to up your knitting game and find super cute modern ideas for projects, these girls are it! Congrats girls! We love you!

    As a twin myself I love this podcast!
    Please do an intro and let us know more about yourselves!
    I learned to knit about 6 years ago when my twin learned to knit. She was taking a hiatus from work after a move and learned to knit...Our competitive spirit made me think "if she can do it I can do it!" (HA!)...so I used "Knitting for Dummies" and UA-cam to learn...she stopped knitting but I kept up with it!
    I am finishing the "We are Makers" shawl...Hoping to tonight or tomorrow!

      We will definitely do more of an intro next time! We realized after we were completely done that we hadn't even said our names, but didn't want to go back and redo it. Its so exciting to hear you and your twin have also found knitting! We 100% have that competitive spirit too! Hopefully she picks it up again. 😊

    You are both great and although twins, each has your own fun personality - so, much fun and amazement to see how advanced you are with your knitting and sewing (love that you are doing some clothes also. ) These things will bring much to your lives, always. Not only your self satisfaction but the sewing/knitting communities.

    Being a twin myself, this was so fun and enjoyable to watch!
    I started out knitting 6 years ago and found it too difficult, so I switched to crochet. After exclusively crocheting for 5 years, I have once again found knitting! Those years of crochet helped me understand the differences in fiber, material, and brands. Plus, it helped my understanding of how the skill works.
    Now I'm teaching my twin to knit after being apart for a few years, and it has helped us to become closer than ever!
    Love your channel! I'm looking forward to more content!

    • @thosetwinswhoknit
      @thosetwinswhoknit  Рік тому +1

      Of course!! For both of us, it took 3 skeins, but there was not a lot of extra leftover so if your gauge is a lot bigger it might take more.. but you could also shorten it just a bit and it would really only need 3 skeins! :)

    I agree so much on the Chiaogoo needles! It adds so much to experience. They are soooo smooth and fast. I'm at the point where if I need a size that I don't have a in my metal Chiaogoos, I will go buy some even if I DO have the size in my wooden needle set. 😅 Knitting with the wooden needles just leaves me longing for the metal ones the entire time I'm knitting. So yeah, 😂 I resonated for sure with that. Glad youtube recommended you to me! I am a fraternal twin, but she definitely doesn't have the knitting addiction I do. Subscribed. ♥️👍🏻

    • @thosetwinswhoknit
      @thosetwinswhoknit  Рік тому +1

      I just recently decided I am going to do the same! I was trying to save the money, but the wooden needles made me not want to work on a project and I just didn't want something so minor to stop me. So I definitely resonate with that too! 😅 Ahh it is so exciting hearing from other twins, even if maybe the knitting addition isn't quite as strong! 🥰

    I really enjoyed watching your podcast. Your pi top is beautiful. You have inspired me to make one. I have just finished the Audrey Top and the Mini Mock Neck Tank and looking for another summer knit - even though it is still winter here in Sydney, Australia. I am still working on the Cumulus Tee - it has turned out a bit larger than i was expecting as my gauge on the Knitting for Olive Pure Silk stretched out a lot in the garment than it did in the swatch. I just finished my third version of the Sorrel sweater and that was a great knit. If you enjoy knitting with mohair, that one is a winner. If you choose a fingering weight yarn with some flecks, they pop through really beautifully but subtle. I am tashbalaz on ravelry if you want to see. I also have a UA-cam Channel Mostly Knitting. Looking forward to your next episode. Thanks for taking the time to record and share what you have been making.

    Great podcast, as always, enjoyed all you have done and are doing. - I am more beginner - you remind me of the Scandinavian countries that start knitting in elementary school, we should do that here in the States♥️

      Thank you so much! I have a friend who went to a private school and shared a story about how in elementary school, the last half hour of each day was quiet time, so students could choose to read, knit, or crochet during that time. Apparently not many of the boys were into reading, so most of the boys she went to school with were great knitters and crocheters. 🤣 I wish we had that at our school growing up!

    I’ve been following the two of you on IG for a while and loved see this video come up in my suggestions. Your champagne cardigans look lovely!! Since you’ve been knitting for so long, would it be an idea for you to share knits from past summers and how well they wear for you? Or summery yarns you’ve enjoyed ? Obviously just suggestions, I’m also super happy to watch your podcast episodes ☺️ I was knitting on my cottage cardigan while watching, it’s a really nice pattern so far !

      Those are both great ideas!! If we do either, I think we will expose how much faster Jessica is at finishing projects than I am. 🤣I (Rachel) actually already have the pattern for the cottage cardigan! I thought at one point I had the perfect yarn for it, but changed my mind and hope to go back to that pattern soon. I'm sure yours will be beautiful! 💛

Beautiful projects!

    Long I sound in Eiderdown. I first saw this word in a sweet babyboard book called 10 little fingers and 10 little toes where one of the little babies was wrapped in an eiderdown. Then I found out what it was when I read Ola by Ingrid and Edgar daulaire. It is the downy feathers found in the nests of eider ducks and used as a filling for quilts or pillows. So there you have both a good children's book list and your trivia for the day😊😅

Billies Grocery and Messenger are always some popular ones if we can get around early enough to beat the rush on weekends! If you have recommendations on the KS side we would love to hear them!! ❤

    Lovely to meet you both. Yes Please introduce Yourself’s in the next podcast. Just a little tip for the button bands on the Champagne Cardigan, technically bands are knitted in 2 needle sizes smaller than the body as they are there to hold your garment together, so to speak, especially the main button band, it needs to be firmer so it will sit flat, knitting it in a larger needle will give it stretch and won’t sit properly and as you wear it, it will stretch even more so, and even more when you attaché buttons. Hope this helps. You both are Beautiful Knitters. ❤❤

    • @thosetwinswhoknit
      @thosetwinswhoknit  Рік тому

      Thank you so much! That is very helpful! The champagne cardigan recommends knitting on a size US 7 for the main body and US 2.5 for the button band, which I think is a bit too small for us, so having a size reference of 2 sizes smaller is very helpful!
