    Just found your channel and couldn't be happier about it ! I am knitting my very first raglan and i cant thank you enough for your tremendous videos with such clear instructions ! Of course... my stitches are off... there's some holes in there ... but thats the first one.. I can't wait for your new projects! If you take requests : please make a video with knit along for a v-neck tee shirt (long or short sleeves). PRETTY PLEASE !

    The yarn looks lovely and such pretty colours. Will look forward to seeing how they knit up. I'm hoping to do a Flax light!! But may review that option and go for a smaller project! 😅. So lovely to see you again. Thank you Tina xx

    Hi Tina. It was very nice to see a video from you pop up and to see your summer knitting plans. At the moment I am knitting a little baby cardigan as I know several young mums to be who would like hand knit baby items, none of them knit or have family members who can, very sad if you ask me, but Anita to the rescue. 😁

    • @Simplyinstitches

    Lovely to see another podcast Tina. I hope you will share your progress on these lovely summer tops. I live in Canada and order from the Wool Warehouse regularly. The selection and prices are amazing and shipping is fast. It is now my go to for yarn, especially Opal sock yarn. I am about to start the Flax Light. Just waiting for the needles I ordered. Take care. ❤️. Gail

    Love your summer knit plans! I get just as excited for summer knits as fall knits I think 😊 I’m knitting a summer tunic. Pattern is Padma by Tonia Barry using Lachiwa cotton/linen blend. I’m also swatching for the Remi Camisole by Caidree with a lovely skein of yarn by Southern Skeins, which is a 50/50 SW Merino/silk blend. The feel of it is divine! Can’t wait to see your summer knits develop 😄

    Fabulous choice of yarn. The cream yarn for your top would look great if you added fabric sleeves with a bit off puff give it a vintage look. I'm crocheting a cardigan. Free patterns on lovecrafts.

    You should check out the “Quetzal” sweater pattern by Rachel Brockman. It is a free pattern that looks similar to the “Rosario” sweater, however it has an interesting textured pattern and appears to sit higher up on the chest. Very pretty. 👚 Great knitting patterns you picked out for the yarn you purchased. 🧶 Thank you for sharing 😊
