    Congrats to all the SSC winners-always fun to recognize names from the Ravelry group chat thread. I envy all of your socks....I'm in a knitting slump with life getting in the way. Hopefully I'll be able to find a project to bring me joy soon...I do miss that. I do have fun reading the chatter and seeing what all everyone is making. Have a fun 2 weeks!

    I do the same but cast on 8 socks at a time. They all get a cuff and then they are all at various stages. Trickier bits for home and concentration and legs and feet first on the go. Thank you for teaching me how to knit socks.

    I just popped on here to say thank you for sharing the Bible Recap. I have seen you post your reading on instagram many times but lately it really intrigued me. I started researching more to understand it and began 6 days again doing the daily reading and video to accompany it. It has brought me a lot of joy. It was just the type of bible “study” that I needed. ♥️

    I'm glad you're taking some time for yourself! I've been a bit under the weather for the past several months so my knitting has been my saving grace. I love your vanilka🎉sock pattern and am having a wonderful time making socks for gifts. My 92 year old mother absolutely loves handmade socks - they are a new experience for her. Thank you so much for the terrific tutorials!

    Every week is a lot. The behind the scenes is a lot more than most people know. I was so inspired by your red, white, & blue socks I cast on my only patriotic colorway to take to fireworks on the 4th. Plain vanilla sock. It's been a lot of fun to knit. So I'm working on a new pair of vanilla socks, an old WIP, and a pair of DK. I'm a happy sock knitting girl.

    So random, but since you like pop rocks I thought of it. Have you ever had the Oreos with pop rocks in them!??! I know it sounds weird (unless you've tried them) but they are my absolute favorite. We have only found them twice in like 5 years, but they're AWESOME. If you ever come across them, I highly recommend.

    Hi Kayla. Great you had a lovely time with your family. I love seeing all the socks you have been knitting. They are all lovely. I am looking forward to seeing the cardigan or sweater you are going to start creating for your niece's birthday. It is so great she loves receiving them and wears them. We are in winter here so lots of rain and it is quite cold in Western Australia.Take care and enjoy the 2 weeks break.

    I have been considering buying another 9” circular to knit both socks at the same time. I always thought I would knit the same on both needles, so knit the cuff and then knit the cuff. Knit the leg and then knit the leg. Interesting to hear your reasons for doing it differently.

    • @MsPoodlelove
      @MsPoodlelove Місяць тому +1

      I always knit my socks in tandem ie two set of needles I do the cuff on both then the leg & so on. Yes you do have to invest in another needle but for me it’s well worth it. No second sock syndrome for me! 😀

    Aloha Kay! Love that cowl you are working on! Also, after a 2 year hiatus from anything knitting or crocheting (because..life), I am so happy to be back and although I am currently knitting on another Oracle shawl, I am binge watching your vids (catching up) and am inspired to cast on some socks. Any socks at this point. I may cast on another "With Grace In Your Heart" shawl because I loved the pattern so much! Anyway, can't wait for the Fall knitting because summer right now in Hawaii is so humid and hot and just happy to be back to what I love doing (second to reading of course lol). Sending love and cool tropical breezes your way!
