  • Welcome to a Special Episode featuring my Favorites and Failed projects of 2023
    *** It is not my intention to disrespect any designer or dyer - All these Patterns are great and I would recommend the all.
    The Fails I have done have been 100%on me, not following the pattern effectively or the final result not to my taste or personal style. This is just me going through my works and learning more about my making journey ***

    Hi Alice. I didn’t realize that you had just started knitting sweaters last year. You did a great job.

    • @soxynanaalice
      @soxynanaalice  7 місяців тому

      I have done a couple sweaters over the years,but mainly for kids. I used to do little intarsia, on straight needles.when k got backing serious knitting, I started small and worked up to my sweaters and colourwork.

    Everafter!!! One of my favorite movies!!! I have to watch it every year!!! I am a very beginning knitter... I made an imperfect dishcloth, I am just fine with it being imperfect... I am knitting a sock, I am 7 rows in on the cuff... I will see how I do on the sock, I'm guessing if I tried the 2nd sock, they won't match... I know it's a process! I loved all of your beautiful items!!! Yes... definitely put the eyes on the cute balloon dog!!! Your toys and dolls are soooo cute!!!

    • @soxynanaalice
      @soxynanaalice  7 місяців тому

      Thanks so much for dropping in! Happy you enjoyed the video, I had so much fun doing it! Even seasoned knitters have thier share of "design features" 😅

    Beautiful Ranunculus and your beanie is super cute! And so happy you are enjoying your mittens 🐸! And thank you for sharing your 'fails' - sometimes yarn wants to be something different and we must frog and try a new shape!

    • @soxynanaalice
      @soxynanaalice  7 місяців тому

      you bet! catch up with you soon love!! can't wait to show off my owl Mittens... they are on the needles 😉 ❤️

    “Just whip up a pair of socks” is something that I can’t say is in my life. All your makes were great. I wondered what happened with the blueberry yarn, can’t wait to see what you make with it next!

    • @soxynanaalice
      @soxynanaalice  7 місяців тому

      Hi 👋 haha I had to chuckle my Blueberry yarn is now Navy!

    Hi Alice, a very enjoyable episode. We all have things that go wrong sometimes and we should talk about and why we found it was not for us. Often a fit/style issue or a pattern and yarn mismatch. We live and learn.
    I love the look of your Ranunculus, it is so cosy and plump 🐈🥰

    • @soxynanaalice
      @soxynanaalice  7 місяців тому

      Thanks Anne!! Hope all is well with you folks and the weather is getting better. I do love my cozy Ranunclus that's for sure and my rocket tees too!!

    Love the Ranunculus in a more bulky weight wool. I've still yet to make one but it is in my queue for 2024.

    Loved this podcast…so cool to see your favourites and why your fails failed!! I keep thinking I want to make the Ranunculus, I have some gorgeous hand dyed yarn …just not sure about the mohair.

    • @soxynanaalice
      @soxynanaalice  7 місяців тому

      Im not sure why my first reply didn't post. I"ll try this again,... Yes you need to try one, they can be totally modified in so many ways. I only did the large one with the fluff because I didn't want the roving to be splitty.

  • @maralusis5434
    @maralusis5434 7 місяців тому +1

    It was because of you and your project that I have the yarn and pattern ready to go for the Shima sweater. Too bad you frogged yours. I will try to follow the pattern exactly.

    • @soxynanaalice
      @soxynanaalice  7 місяців тому

      Yes, Beatrice is an amazing designer, I will be remaking her Shima forsure. I will be following the pattern for my size! Thanks for coming for a visit ♥ xx
