It's hard to believe that the white sweater came from upcycled yarn, it looks so good, congratulations!
I love the Roving. I've made 10 sweaters and a vest with it.
Yes please to a project vlog video, love your vintage yarn very much, looking beautiful as it finally gets to be a garment! Plum sounds perfect for your hat.
thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching!
I am in love with your Spot sweater. Your color work is gorgeous! Loved listening to all your thoughts and seeing your projects. I am inspired by your recycling of yarn. I rarely see wool sweaters in thrift stores but will definitely keep my eyes peeled. 👀 👀 👀 blink blink 👓 😁
thanks for watching!
Vlogging the whole process of knitting a garment would be so much fun! And I'm in love with your Spot sweater (and how clean the floats are!)
The green Briggs & Little yarn really brings out the colour of your eyes. It will be a beautiful sweater on you.☘
Thank you!!
The colors of garments you wear in the video compliment you so nicely! You look absolutely gorgeous!!
Every time you upload it is a gift, your makes are absolutely gorgeous, especially the guernsey sweater!
You're so sweet, thank you for making me smile!
Absolutely yes to a project vlog! ❤
I think your hat colour is so beautiful and suits you so well! I love the slight uneveness - it makes it special. I enjoyed your podcast so much, yet again :) Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Plum would be lovely for the hat! Also, I appreciate your resourcefulness in knitting -I've never seen a knitter take apart a thrift store sweater and use if for a project -that's a good idea. And the Sandnes Garn sweater collar looks fine.
Probably too late to chime in but I think the August hat would be gorgeous on you in a color that matches your eyes. It is a lovely pattern and suits you really well.
I like the color and cables of the avacado pit hat maybe a Christmas gift for someone not sure redying the color would be what you expect. The boxey white sweater is beautiful looks perfect on you. Enjoyed seeing your work, you must knit incredibly fast. Thanks for sharing
Love what you did with the Eddie Bauer sweater!
Hello 👋 from WA as well happy to have come across your podcast
Your eyes are gorgeous in this episode! Loved how you gave new life to the second hand sweater and the Eddie Bauer sweater
thank you! I think it's my favorite sweater I've ever made, I wear it at least once a week now!
Yes please share your sewing also! Glad to have found your channel, love watching a fellow Washingtonian.
Thanks for watching!
Enjoyed! I would leave the hat as is. The hat and Guernsey sweater colors and patterns compliment one another.
Maybe a nice grey for your hat...the blue is perfect for the retro looking design..
New subscriber - UA-cam suggested you, watched this video, and will now go back and watch some of your older videos. Love the idea of a project vlog of one project. I´ve been knitting for years and year, but only simple projects. Stitched my first set of socks and am now obsessed. Everyone is getting socks for Xmas ;-) Would love to stitch my first garment and watching a project video would be exactly what I would need to gain the confidence to give it a go.
sock knitting is so great! good luck on your first garment project!
Holy cow that yarn! 1961! That’s the year I was born 61 years ago.
That tan hat would be stunning in a forest green
That spot sweater is going to be stunning ! I have wanted to knit that but it looks challenging. The samples I have seen on Instagram are all stunning : )
Thank you! It's not really technically challenging, it's just kind of a slog. I'm sure it will be worth it when I finally finish!
I think the hat colour (from avocados) suits you very nice, it shows off your blue eyes but I look forward to see your decision about it
Love a project vlog 😍
Hey! For your avocado hat, you can alter the color easily to a purple-grey by doing an iron-water after bath. That would be my recommendation!
I got a lot of my grandma's old yarn and even some from my great grandma with is around 100 years old!
Hi Anna, I’m glad I found your channel. I love your style choices and you knit beautifully. The Norland hat would look great in a berry color. You don’t need to redo the collar on your favorite cream colored sweater. It’s not noticeable, unless it drives you bananas 🤣. I get that! I also don’t care for the arms being too small compared with the body size on tops & knits. Thank you for sharing! Watching from Chicago.
Thanks for watching!! Chicago is a great city.
I also made the 'Spot' knit by Anna V. I did struggle with the sleeves as they were quite tight with my knitting and I was rusty on the colour change techniques but lovely and soft for my Sister in Law in Pittsburgh!
Good to know about the sleeves, thanks for the heads up!
I recently fixed the collars on two sweaters and I wear them so much more now! I actually have one sweater that I keep pulling the sleeves and I need to add some length to those.
Crazy how a little change can make a big difference!
The sweater surgery at 8:18 just confirms knitters are lowkey badasses. Thanks for the info on increasing the armhole(11:25) on sweater no 11. Your spot sweater looks beautiful. I have this at the top of my queue and would like to start this, but it seems so challenging. Maybe I watched their KAL at the wrong time because my brain was not computing. I love yours - so beautiful. I may give it another go to work on simultaneously as I decide on my next project.
it can be tricky at times but it's a really engaging project.
So many beautiful knits. I would definitely dye the hat in a darker color, a darker brown or maybe dark blue navy to go together with the Spot Sweater? I just finished my Sweater No. 11 and the Spot Sweater is on my list next. I will be doing it with unspun. And I am absolutely in this oversized, dropped shoulder team right now, so nice to find your podcast ❤
Ooo the spot sweater in unspun sounds so dreamy!
Your makes are all so gorgeous! And I especially want to say that your knitting with second hand yarns is so inspiring to me- I was considering preordering hand dyed yarn and have completely put it out of my head thanks to seeing all the beautiful things you create.
Do you have any tips on unwinding a cake of Country Roving? Carefully, I suppose. I am curious to try this yarn because I love Briggs and Little but don’t want to knit a bulky weight anything 😂
Hand dyed yarn is special in a different way! There is a lot of artestry that goes into those gorgeous skeins. Definitely carefully! I end up splitting the plys in half and then half again, and make very delicate piles all over the floor until I can ball them up. It's a process but it's worth it!
I love your podcast! Your guernsey sweater is so dreamy and beautiful. I love that you thrift yarn and harvest yarn from old sweaters. I would love to see a video of the process you do to harvest yarn from old sweaters. I’ve always wanted to try it but I find it intimidating. Do you have to wash the yarn to get all the kinks out? What type of sweaters do you look for? Etc. I would love to be more sustainable 😊
Wow I just saw you do have a video on repurposing sweater yarn! I should have looked first. Thank you!!!
I'm glad you found the video, and thanks for watching!
I love your spot sweater! So classic and wearable. I may have to look into it, but I have never done color work. How difficult is the color work?
It's pretty simple! The longest float is only 5 stitches. The only tricky part is the beginning, and there are support videos, but it might be a little overwhelming to work the flat part if you haven't done any color work before. I'd say start with an accessory like socks/hat/cowl to get comfortable working with multiple strands and then you could take this on no problem.
I would like to watch making that SPOT SWEATER, I don,t have the courage to knit that yet.😑
That spot sweater is gorgeous!! I think you may have inspired me to make one for myself. Do you find that older yarns need more care when knitting with/washing them? I’ve always been told that older yarns can be more delicate but have never actually tested it out for myself.
The spot sweater is slow going but I'm hoping it will be with the work! I haven't had any issues working with older yarns. This yarn in particular has a lot of spinning oil in so it needs to be washed well when blocking, but there are plenty of modern yarns that need that extra rinse too. I haven't had a problem with them being extra delicate
Heather Nolan has a forthcoming shawl pattern in unspun and herringbone!
that sounds right up my street, thanks for the recommendation!
If you go to Anne Ventzel’s UA-cam channel I think she has a video on how to adjust the depth of the yoke for this specific sweater. I’m about to cast on her crosses sweater for my mom 😊
she has several support videos that I'm sure are super helpful! The colored crosses is gorgeous! what colors did you choose?
Watching this video again as I'm putting away the yarn I got from Hillesvag...I think the unspun would be perfect for the Guernsey sweater. I made the Ingrid using wool and it's heavy as expected. Hillesvag's unspun is surprisingly soft and would make a lighter weight sweater. I believe you have their unspun - how do you like it? Would you suggest using it double as is or with mohair for strength.
I love it! It is very soft and light weight. I have used it single and double, and both were fine, although you have to be careful when using it single because it is delicate. I've never used mohair with it, but Inga from knitting traditions has, and she also talks a lot about it in her channel.
Hi Anna your videos are so wonderful to watch. I learn so much from them. I had a question for you, how do you separate the 5ply county roving yarn? Would you be able to makes a short video to show how you do it? or let Me know how you do it? I don’t have any tools ( ball winder or swift). Appreciate your response. Thank you.
Hi! thank you so much! It has 5 plys, so I split into two piles (one with 2 plys, one with 3) and then split it again until I have 5 piles with 1 ply each. It takes a lot of floor space and there's always a little breakage but as long as you're gentle it's not too hard. Once you have the piles, you can wind them into balls by hand from there. Hope that's helpful!
That is so helpful and thank you for getting back to me so quickly. I love working with plotulopi, so when I saw your take on the country roving I was so interested in that yarn. Appreciate your input and thanks for making such great videos.
A couple of the insert pics weren't there
Just got my hands on the sandnes garn booklet and planning to knit the guernsey too!! I just started the gia zipper sweater and the neck part seems scary... are you planning on knitting the gia??? lovely podcast as always!
I'm wearing mine again today, I love it! Inga from Knitting Traditions is also making one and I lover her version as well. I am planning on knitting Gia, but I will probably omit the waist shaping to give it a more boxy fit.
@@apt.atelier yes!! i was also thinking about omiting the waist decreases! But I'm not sure I will have enough yarn though! I guess I am going to join the body and then knit the neck and arms and see how much yarn I have for the body and then decide! The instructions for the neck seem a bit dificult but I am hoping once I start they make more sense!
Looks like the Nature Spun yarn is made by Brown Sheep Company. Go for the plum color for your next hat.
Thanks for the tip on Nature Spun!
I thought I was the only knitter in Seattle….I’m looking for a community to knit with. Any suggestions? PS finally started Spot sweater myself last weekend! Your is lovely! Th . Juliette
Acorn Street Shop in Ravenna does biweekly knit nights! There is more info on their instagram.
@@apt.atelier thank you! I’m so far from there…West Seattle. 🙁
@@juliettemirsepasy2446 I've heard great things about Seattle Yarn in West Seattle, maybe they have an event you could go to!
Hello, i am very intrigate about the way you will separate the wollen 5 strands of briggs and little ? Can you tell me about your way to do it ?
Hi! It has 5 plys, so I split into two piles (one with 2 plys, one with 3) and then split it again until I have 5 piles with 1 ply each. It takes a lot of floor space and there's always a little breakage but as long as you're gentle it's not too hard. Once you have the piles, you can wind them into balls by hand or delicately with a ball winder from there. Hope that's helpful!
Sorry, i somehow hit the thump down button, although I love your Podcast very much. 🤗 Looking forward to learn more about you making journey. 🥰
OK first, did you get a new camera!? The lens focusing sound is gone! 😇For the August hat, I vote for a caramel/camel colour! I feel like Sari Nordlund herself has some cable patterns' samples that are done in that colour, and it's so neutral and can easily match everything.
Oh and Hi Anna! 🥰
I JUST started the Lodge Socks by Ozetta! And it's my first time knitting with Lettlopi, and can I tell you, I got a blister on my hand where the working yarn rubs against, from the roughness of it, no joke. 🤣 So I applied a bunch of hand balm/salve on that spot to prevent it from happening.
Oh my wordddd, your spot sweater is GLORIOUS!!! I've been dying to knit one!!
YES would love project knitting vlogs. I find those so helpful to show us knitters who are knitting the same item at the same time when we get lost and want to see what it SHOULD look like at each step, you know? :)
K last comment I promise: so Anna it seems that you're pretty dedicated to seeking out second hand yarn, did you know that Poshmark apparently has some solid yarn listings!??!??? Speaking of which, the other day I saw someone listing heaps of Jamieson & Smith yarns, do you know anything about this brand and how the quality is? OK over.
How often is the yarn sale?
They typically do it once a year and advertise on their Instagram.
Is drops ripping off other designers, or are the other designers using drops as a base for their own designs? I don’t really see anything wrong with that’s because they’re both different patterns but still. Just clarifying. Good podcast! ❤
Interesting thought! Its hard to draw a definite line because you can only do so much with knits and purls and there are bound to be patterns that look alike. I have heard from smaller designers like Fiber Tales that drops came out with free patterns very similar to their paid patterns. I don't think it's always the case, but when in doubt it's always better to support a person or small business than a large company! I'm actually abandoning this hat project because it's too small, but I think if I were to try it again I would choose a different pattern.
Omg you’re so cute☺️
ICE yarns is from Turkey and not from Iceland
That's what I meant 🙈
Please slow down a tiny bit.
Every time you hold something up to show….you move it away the moment the camera tries to focus or before my old lady eyes has a chance to adjust.
Just a tad please. ☺️
Your projects are lovely but it is challenging to see them in detail because you seem to be rushed. Sometimes the camera is still focusing when move the item. Please slow down so we can savour your projects.
thanks for the feedback!
This is probably for the better because she is not allowed to show many details of the patterns because these are not her patterns so it's IP
Hi Anna, loved seeing your projects, love your style choices. Just some constructive “criticism”: the video felt pretty long and i noticed you have a tendency to repeat yourself. I think it could easily be boiled down a little. I really think your content has potential for a lot more views and that’s the only reason I’m commenting. So maybe try out a shorter format and see what that does? Also thought it would be nice if you could make sure to get your close-ups well in focus as the patterns and texture of your knitting is really interesting to see. Maybe just get it in focus and then continue with your narration. Wish you all the best and please feel free to ignore my comment if you don’t find it helpful!
Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for watching!
Had to stop watching as all those blurry close ups was making me dizzy, otherwise nice podcast
