Great catching up!
🌴☀️Just missing you 🤭 so stopped by to watch for the 5th time lol☀️🌴
Thelma writes: Hello Denise, I am from New Zealand and I am relatively a new-ish subscriber/follower and have found your channel/tutorials very informative and lovely to listen to. I just love the way you present yourself and the way you walk through every tips and tricks on socks knitting; so calm, clear, simple, that makes the whole tutorial easy to understand and a pleasant to listen to. I do hope you will continue posting new videos on new projects. Thank you Denise for creating and presenting a wonderful channel.
Hi Thelma,
Thank you so much for your lovely comment and compliments. I will be back very soon with new episodes.
It is always so uplifting to see you on here Denise! I am one of the lucky ones who purchased So This is Love and am currently knitting up a pair of socks with it. No exaggeration it is one of the nicest sock yarns I have ever knit with and I will soon have one very beautiful pair of socks!
Oh I'm SO happy you like the yarn!! Michele is an absolute genius!!!
nice to see you back!
52 weeks vol 2 is definitely on my to buy list. From the reviews I’ve seen so far there are so many patterns I love. Also, I’m loving your Dutch heel tutorial!
Just found you channel and. I Love it!!!
Welcome!! I’m so happy you found your way here!!!
Had to interrupt this video to go to Ravelry and purchase Alacrity Socks. Thank you, Denise!
Oh thank you SO MUCH Sandy!!!
I started on my sock knitting journey a few months back with the help of a coworker. I came across your videos and I refer to them alot. Your ability to teach and explain is exceptional. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
I gave the garter heel a try after seeing the video. I put pics on the gram but still not finished yet. Loving this heel treatment.
Too funny. Just looked yesterday to see if there was a new video. Shazam, there was one today. Watched while working the shadow wrap heel. Like it but still getting used to triplet stitches.
52 Weeks will be added to my wish list! I purchased the Mouche & Friends Book. Just looking through this book brings back the child in you. Makes me happy! Thank you for sharing! 🥰
I use the Rose city roller’s pattern for the shorty sock too. Sometimes I Frankenstein it with another pattern if I want a non vanilla sock. Lately, I’ve been using the Dixie sock pattern by knit on designs for the foot. I’m loving that pattern for shortie socks. I’ve knit a couple of pairs this month.
That's a great idea! Thank you so much for sharing it here with us!!
So nice to see you. Your calm excitement boosted my mood. Also, I love the OOAK of your sock yarn and will be awaiting an announcement.
great video, can’t wait to try your sock pattern.
Thank you so much!!
Your podcast here was SO ENJOYABLE!!!! Thank you for your time, your sharing of your creations and your enthusiasm for books. I love books too. Our son bought a Kindle for me to load books onto but unfortunately, I found it is not for me. I would rather have a real book. I really enjoy the feel, aroma and the substance of a book (if that makes sense.) I have a wip in a small bag tgat I take everywhere...just incase I find a few minutes to knit my socks! I just love when I get notice that you have a new podcast! Thank you Denise 💖 Blessings from Alberta Canada...Deb
I prefer physical books too. There’s nothing like holding a good book in your hand, and flipping pages!!
Palisades are perfect! I lived across the Hudson and had that view for 15 years. Inspired and inspiring episode! Thank you 💜🧶💜
Good Morning Denise! It’s so wonderful to catch up up with you! I just can’t with all the spectacular goodnesss in all you shared! Have an amazing weekend!
Your socks are amazing!!
Thank you so much!
Thanks!
Thank you so much, Martha! Your support means more than you know!! I’m very grateful!!!
Nice to see you Denise and I lovely your excitement and enthusiasm in things you do 😊😊😊
Hi Denise, I'm wondering if one day you could do a tutorial series on how to knit a nordic/icelandic sweater? For beginners..?
❤❤❤
Nordc/Icelandic sweaters are amazing. There are so many tutorials on UA-cam and books on this topic, I'm sure you could find that would help you.
So nice to se you again, Denise. Love your sock yarns🥰. And the three Laine books are all so gorgeous, I have all three of them.
Hi Denise! Love your Alacrity socks, those garter heels and toes are so squishy. Beautiful books, too! Now I want all of them 😁📚❤️
🌴☀️Omg first off I FREAKIN MISS YOUUU🤭, second tks for waiting to put those other skeins on the site bec I’m watching this 2 days later whew 😅. I like the darker version better & I couldn’t participate in the pre-order but it’s so ON now😂.
❤❤❤
A beautiful episode. Love the socks and the books. I am delighted with my yarn and can't wait to knit it up but I am making myself complete the socks on the needles first. 🇬🇧
I am trying very hard to start a sock pattern but am avoiding it as it is scary. I am trying so hard to get over this but so far without success. I feel I need to focus so much and am not into doing that at this time but want to. Your podcast is great and I would live to someday say that sock knitting is my way to relax. I am really enjoying watching you and hopefully with your inspiration I will get there.
There are so many things in life to be truly scared of, sock knitting should not be one of them!!! Take a deep breath and cast on!!!
I’m so sorry to have missed it!
Stay tuned, I may be putting some one-of-a-kind and a few extras in the shop in the coming weeks.
I love making socks - 2 at a time on 2 circular needles. And when I watch any of your videos I want to run out and set up another pair and just keep knitting socks! Your videos and techniques are so tidy and workable I just want to keep knitting even on fingering yarn and size 1 needles. Thank you for striving for excellence!!!
Great to see you this afternoon. I was lucky to get some of the So this is Love yarn and I'm going to knit socks for sock Week in July with Knitty Natty - such fun. The yarn is really lovely and soft and the colours are amazing. Thanks so much
Love the garter stitch heel flap!! Can’t wait to finish and wear my socks
Your socks are all so lovely. I love the striped socks to! A lovely episode!
I was just thinking of your podcast and how I should watch it this afternoon. So happy to see this new episode! Best wishes ❤️
Congrats on your successful shop update. I have the first Laine 52 weeks of socks in paperback so not too expensive. It is photograhed so beautifully. Picked out 5 patterns I think I can easily knit. 1 pair down! Just need more yarn.
Cute knit toys. I've been using up some of my scraps for crochet amigurumi - my daughter would fill our house with them.
So happy to listen to your podcast. It’s wonderful! Love the yarn and new pattern. Looking forward to the shop update. I’ll be saving up for the 52 Weeks books now. May have to save for the other as I may have seen a donkey pattern as you were flipping through on the overhead shots. How cute are those knitted animals! Stay blessed and have a safe and wonderful summer.
Beautiful socks as always. I know it would be a huge thing but if you are ever up to it I would LOVE a book on socks by you. The Socksploration deep dive!
The white sweater! 😮
😂
@@EarthtonesgirlPodcast cannot wait to hear!
So glad you’re back. I really enjoy your podcasts. Can’t wait for the next new colorway.
Thanks for watching Wynona!!! It's great to be back!!
so glad you're back! your podcast always make me so happy. Your new pattern looks amazing and I will definately try it out
Thank you so much!!
I bought two of the 52 weeks books (the sock and the scarf ones) and was intrigued by a number of the sock patterns.... the harder (for me) ones of course! But I'll be making socks till I feel comfortable enough to try some of the more challenging patterns. And there are a lot in that book!
Welcome back! It's really good to see you again!
P.S. I for one definitely do NOT need a knitted pig. I hate pigs. I don't want them in any form in my presence. Give me a sheep, goat, dog, bear, otter, monkey, fox, elephant toy or item any day.
You made me laugh out loud when you said you do not need the pig. I get it!!! 😂
Noelle, just a little info to help you like pigs. In Danish tradition, pigs are considered good luck! Every Christmas we always got a little marzipan pig for good luck in the coming year!
@@christenagervais7303 thank you for the info. But I think I'm still not a fan! 😌 Though I DO like marzipan. My mother always bought it at Christmas and it was a real treat. The kind she bought was shaped like fruits. I liked the apples and pineapples 😊
I must say I'm afraid, LOL. I want to make a pair of socks, so bad and want that book, but, so far I'm not starting because I have this 'afraid' on my forehead. I love your website so much. love,hugs,prayers.
I would be more afraid to go grocery shopping, than I would to knit a pair of socks. They are very few things in life you get to rip out and redo. This is one of them. Just jump right in. There’s absolutely NOTHING to be afraid of.
🌻❤🤗
We will come back with it without the cliffhanger!
Aww, thank you!!! 🥰
Great podcast. I have my So this is Love and the Alacrity pattern ready to go🤗🤗
WOOHOO!!! Thank you so much!!!
I watched you do the heel and almost tried it then but I would really like the pattern. I don't want to mess it up!
I need that 52 weeks book!!! I want to immerse my needles in it! How much is it? Oh, oh! Maybe I have to wait?
I'm skipping my Culver's custard today for the giveaway contribution🧡 So good to see you! Lovely yarns and congratulations on the new pattern!
I’ve had Culver’s custard, so I know what you’re giving up and I’m very grateful to you for the donation. Thank you so so much. 💗
This episode is a great way to welcome in summer. The joy, laughter, and smiles you bring to each episode is infectious and we can’t help by share in the laughter and love your give to us.
Do you have a swatch of the first round of So This Is Love? It would be interesting to see the, side by side.
Can’t wait to hear the book review… we’ll just sit her on the edge of seats knitting away and waiting. Hehehe
So sorry, I thought I had done the book review.
@@EarthtonesgirlPodcast that just means we get to hear from you sooner. Hehehe
I soo love your channel!! And so glad i found it.
Im starting on your No fear sock tutorials!! Thank you so much!
Just wondering...... have you....or COULD you.... do a tutorial on thise adorable Mini Socks????
I downloaded the free pattern, but it says to start with 36, put 12 on THREE needles.... and then to knit in the round... omg...😵💫
I want to learn how... but im the type who needs to see something done.
Trying to read a pattern right now... seems to tangle my brain.
❤
I"m so happy to that you're enjoying my channel and tutorials. The mini sock is exactly that, a small sock and is knit the same as a larger sock, just fewer stitches and different distribution of the stitches. If you can follow along with my class you will be able to knit the mini sock with no problem.
Sahawnittasmith you love you too love 💕
Could you direct me in the right direction..I'm looking for a book that has different heel options in it. I've had no luck.
I just entered, sock knitting books heels into Google and there was an array of different options. I would probably scan through some of them to find the exact book that you’re looking for. My favorite is Sock Architecture by Lara Neel.
Where is the Shop. What is your website also ! :) Congrates to your middle school 🎓 Graduate!!!!
Thank you so much!!
