Love your podcasts. I want to make several of your patterns. And knit with the Sandnes Line yarn.
You’ll love Fruity Knitting podcast! The best.
Yes! I love Fruity Knitting. I agree it is an outstanding podcast. Thank you so much for commenting and watching! Have a wonderful weekend! 😊❤️
I love your podcast, Bobbi! You can say “talk about” as many times as you want 😊!
Your Ilha sweater is just gorgeous ❤🎉ˋˋˋ couldn’t resist and went straight over to Ravelry and bought the pattern 😊…… the yarn and the color is very elegant looking … just love it 💕 🎈🎈🇪🇸🇩🇪🇨🇦🌻🌈🏖️
Hello! Thank you so much for the lovely compliment! I truly love my Ilha Sweater. I knew it was a winner the first time I saw it on Ravelry. I know your going to love knitting it. Thank you for watching my little podcast and for taking the time to comment! Have a wonderful day. 😊❤️
Hi Bobbi, I love your Ilha sweater, to. I liked hearing how you made it. I am glad I found your podcast, you are great. Also, Danish Musings is a great podcast, and makes lovely sweaters. Yes Knits&Pieces with Kelly and Noelle are great. I try to catch the live to, but being in the west I have a 2 hour time diff. I have to go back and watch all your podcasts you are fun too. Thanks
Love that you talk about knitting 😜 new to your podcast and a few minutes in and love this ❤
Thank you Mark, for your calm and reassuring tour through Rsvelry. I use it fairly often but your presentation has made me realise that there is a lot more I could be using on the platform. Bless you.
Hi dear Bobbi. Thank you sooo much for your recommendation to my podcast. You are so lovely and kind. I am so grateful for all the kinds words you said and again I have the same book and we did hit it off. I wish we lived closer. Another great podcast and your sweater is gorgeous. 😍💖
Hi Taci! You’re welcome. I always enjoy watching your UA-cam videos and shorts. I hope you have a wonderful day in beautiful Oregon! 😊❤️
So happy to find you! You are full of info that I’m writing down! Thank you. You inspire me! 🧶🤍✨
Great video thank you for recommending other videos to watch. 😊🇨🇦
I am a 48 yr crocheter. I'm a knitter just since mothers day and if I ever get the touch! Pray for me lol your work is just beautiful, oh if I could knit like you.
Hello Charlene! You are so kind! Thank you so much for the lovely comment. You actually have a “hands up” on knitting because you already have a feel for tensioning yarn because you are a crocheter. I crocheted years before I took up knitting. I really enjoy connecting with fellow knitters. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment! Have a wonderful day. 😊❤️
Awesome episode as always Bobbi, thank you for sharing your beautiful knits with us! xoxo Judy
How lovely to see you back you made my day
Joyce, you made MY day. You are so kind. It is so nice to connect with fellow knitters on UA-cam. I appreciate your viewership so much! Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment!!! 😊❤️
Your Ihla is so lovely. I’m currently knitting my third ranunculus out of drops belle and now know which sweater I will cast on next.
Thank you for your channel and your enthusiasm.
I knitted the ilha 2 times together with a knittingfriend. She made 3 of themand i lo ve them.
I never knitted a ranunculus. Love your podcast. Greets from Belgium.
Keep your “talk about.” Love it
Great episode. I also loved Ysolda’s podcast. I’m really excited to see when she releases her new sweater pattern. She has given everything so much thought and I’m sure it will be a well fitting garment. Loved your Ilha sweater. Beautifully made.
Some of my favourite knitting podcasts are: Mel Makes Stuff- she has top level skills in fit and finish, very informative; Danish Musings - she has a wonderful nordic/Scandi esthetic to her knitting and a beautiful voice; Edible, Thoughts, Makes - she has beautiful fit & finish for her sweaters and very informative about how she does that. Waving hello from 🇨🇦
Just found you. Love your podcast, great to hear someone else knitting in the south. I’m is northern Mississippi, love sandnes barn yarns too. Looking forward to binging the rest of your UA-cam channel, Suses💜💜💜
Hi Bobbi, Debbie here from the UK, I’m knitting the Felix cardigan, my very first knitted garment. Hoping to knit the dahlia cardigan next. Love your videos, only problem is….wish you uploaded more because I can’t get enough of your inspiring podcasts, blessings ❤
Hi Debbie! The Felix is a great pattern, but the Dahlia is absolutely my favorite cardigan I have knit. Thank you for the lovely comments. I know, I should upload my videos more often. I’ll have to work on that. 🙂 I appreciate your viewership so much. Thank you for watching my little UA-cam channel! Have a great day. 😊❤️
@@knitterskniche thanks for taking the time to reply x
Ooh I love your Ilha sweater. I have made this sweater too and it is my absolute favourite ❤️ I plan on making more and I think I might have to make one like yours. It’s beautiful. I’ve just subscribed to your channel and I’m looking forward to watching more.
I love your podcast. I'm in wet and windy New Zealand! Love your style Bobby.
Hello Karen! It’s terribly hot here again today. Sounds like it’s winter for you. Great weather for knitting those cozy projects. I really love connecting with knitters all across the world! Thank you so much for the kind comment and for watching my little podcast! Have a wonderful day! 😊❤️
I love your vlog have been following for some time. You have made the most beautiful things, truly inspirational. I’ve made many of he same items you have made, anthology throw, purl soho 1/2 and 1/2 , dumpling the bag, a ranunculous, etc. love your Ilha sweater, looks like a fun knit. Will have to try Line, sounds like a nice yarn to work with. Also love your Steven west shawl, I gave up on that one but your color combo worked!
I just found your podcast-I LOVE your outtakes-you are a delight
Hello! When it comes to podcasting I’m still learning, so I have plenty of outtakes that’s for sure. Lol. Thank you so much for the lovely comment and for watching my little podcast! Have a great weekend. 😊❤️
What a beautiful sweater. I may have to add that to my list.
Hi Ruthann! Thank you so much for the lovely comment! Not only do I love the Ilha sweater, I really enjoyed knitting the pattern. It has a lot of beautiful details. Thank you for watching! I appreciate your viewership so much! 😊❤️
Such beautifull things! I love your style!!!lots of love from Lisbon!!!🥰
Hello Paula! Thank you for such a lovely compliment. All the way from Lisbon? It’s so nice to meet a fellow knitter from so far away. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment. Have a great day! 😊❤️
Your sweater looks great!!
Thank you so much for the kind comment! I truly loved knitting the Ilha Sweater and I hope to knit another one soon. Thank you so much for watching my little podcast and for taking the time to comment! 😊❤️
Thanks for the info regarding new podcast. Kelly and Naomi as such fun people to watch, always laughing! You might be interested in Little Big Knits with Selma. She has done some great knits. I think the Ilha will be put into my knitting list.
Knit quilt block as you practice the new stitches, it would make an amazing blanket!
Great idea Vicki!! It would be beautiful! Thank you for watching and commenting! Have a wonderful day. 😊❤️
Hi Bobbi! I just stumbled upon you and had to watch the first 4-5 minutes twice because you sound so much like me when I get my speech stuck in a loop😀! It was hilarious! I love the Italian knitter and will check out some of your suggestions. I’m knitting my 4th Musselburgh, this one is for me finally. Love the Ilha, now in my queue. Nicely done!
Awesome podcast! Love your Ilha sweater 🥰. Added it to my faves on ravelry! Thank you
That’s so thoughtful of you Karen, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Your Ilha is beautiful! 💚
Just love your podcast! I had to click on your photo as you’re wearing the same top I’m wearing haha Currently knitting on the Alpine Bloom too 🧡
I love all my ranunculi……now perhaps I should binge on Ilha.
Beautiful Ilha sweater. Thanks for the bind off tip- I was binding off a Ranunculus while watching this so tried your method and really like the result!
Hello Beverly! I’m glad you liked the bind off tip. Now I want to knit another Ranunculus! Lol. Thank you so much for the lovely comment and for watching! Have a wonderful weekend!!! 😊❤️
Hello, new to your ‘talk about…’🤭I’m knitting a Ninilchik but I’m only using 3 colours instead of the 4
Your Ilha is lovely. The stitches are very even. It looks great on you. I love Tuesday knit chat cafe with Kelly and Noelle.
That’s so thoughtful of you Nancy, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Thank you for inspirering me🤩 hi from Denmark 🇩🇰
Hello! So nice to meet you! All the way from Denmark. It is so nice to connect with fellow knitters from all around the world on UA-cam. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment. Have a wonderful day! 😊❤️
Bobbi, just found your podcast a few days ago and so enjoy. I put the Ilha top on my next make list. I promised I’d finish my Heya tank. I saw in one of Ravelry’s finished projects where someone had added a lace hem and I loved it. I pulled out my Japanese Knitting Stitch book and added only one repeat of patten 64. So easy to follow and added some pizazz to the tank. I’ve just split for the armholes, may add one motif to the center front near neckline. Another Japanese book is Keiko Okamoto’s Japanese Knitting Stitches. (More colorwork,texture and some patterns). Also a great Symbol section in the back. I’m now very motivated to finish so I can start my Ilha top! Susie
Your sweater is lovely. I saw one of those knit up at Far North Yarn Co when I visited Alaska. I thought it looked similar to a Ranunculous but it was different. It’s about midway through my Alaska episode.
We really are quite close! I’m in southern middle Tn a stone’s throw from the state line. And you’re right. It is hot as blazes! 🔥
Your ilha sweater is very beautiful. And thank you for your tips on how to make the sweater fit so that it is not so big. And my compliments for the clear explanation, tips and humor. 😊
Hello! I truly love my Ilha Sweater. Thank you for the kind comments. Since I choose to knit with the Sandnes Garn Line yarn, which is considered a worsted weight yarn, my sweater was going to be a little wide. If I had knit a size 1 instead the fit would have been just right without having to have decreased any stitches. If you knit the Ilha, check your gauge first which is what I should have done. Lol. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment! 😊❤️
@@knitterskniche no thanks, i love to watch and the tips.
I am taking a class at my local shop and making my first sweater! It’s a bit overwhelming but I’m determined and you inspire me. I learned to knit during the pandemic and have made several blankets and scarves so I thought I’d challenge myself. It’s definitely a challenge! I’m in VA.🙂
Hello! That’s fantastic! You’re knitting your first sweater! A long time ago, my friend opened a yarn shop in our small town. She taught me how to knit while sitting in her little shop. I would have never thought about knitting a sweater without her helping me every step of the way. You are so fortunate to have a local yarn shop that gives classes. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! Enjoy knitting your first of sweater. 😊❤️
Love your Ilha Bobbi, and lol’d at the out takes 😂 you enabled me and I’ve just cast on the Alpine Bloom as well as working on clue 3 of the Westknits sock KAL 🥰
Oh my gosh! You are a knitting machine! The Alpine Bloom is going to take me a while to knit since it’s in fingering weight. I just started the color work last night. Thank you so much for watching and for the lovely comment! Have a great day!
@@knitterskniche I was just thinking that you are a knitting machine, I cast on so much it takes me ages to finish something unless there’s a deadline 😉😊
Just found your podcast and subscribed! Really enjoyed the episode 😊. Also just purchased the Ilha pattern! So inspired by yours!
Hello! You are going to enjoy knitting the Ilha Sweater. The pattern is relatively easy knitting yet the finished sweater looks more advanced. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. Have a wonderful day! 😊❤️
So glad I stumbled across your UA-cam Channel 🤩I just recently bought Sandnes Garn Line in Black and maybe Caffe Latte.. Anyhow the black I planned to knit a short sleeve Ranunculus….but after watching your video I’m seriously considering the Ilha… love the similar lace yoke and even more I love the side seam details ❣️I was going to risk not swatching probably for the first time ever and I was very curious how the Line would block out and if it would grow… so thank you very much for sharing your modification on the side seam with decreases… I’ll check out your Ravelry page for sure😍thank you for a great episode Bobbi💖
I’m working on 5 summer tops right now. They are all at the stockinett body stage so I alternate projects
Oh my gosh! 5 summer tops on the needles at the same time! That actually sounds like heaven to me. Thank you so much for watching and for commenting! I would love to see your summer tops. Have a great day! 😊❤️
I love your Ilha! Wonderful! I believe the designer’s name is pronounced or-lahn suke. I really want to try the Sandnes Garn. It’s on my wish list! Happy summer, Bobbi!
Thank you for the correct pronunciation. I knew I wasn’t saying her name right. Lol. Thank you so much for watching and for the lovely comment! 😊❤️
I have knitted the long sleeve version of the Ilha sweater. I was planning to order sandnes line for the Soho top but I think I have to order some more 😅 to make a tee like yours, a very beautiful tee. Greetz from Belgium
Your ilha sweater looks lovely on you. I think I will be adding that one to my queue! Thank you for the podcast recommendations. I watched Ysolda (pronounced Izolda) this week too. I’m surprised that she hasn’t made more podcasts as she has been around for some time. In fact I met her around 10 years ago at the opening of her friend’s yarn shop! She is Canadian I believe, but has lived in Scotland for a long time now and is pretty well known in the UK. I liked that sweatshirt-style jumper she was wearing. I was chuckling at you saying “I’ll talk about this, or I’ll talk about that” and I must admit I hadn’t even noticed! I like the way you “talk about” things, so no problems here. 😅
How exciting to have met Ysolda! Oh, and thank you for the correct pronunciation of her name. I’m never quite sure how to pronounce some of the designer’s names. Wasn’t I such a mess with all my “talk abouts? Lol. I’m loving the sweatshirt jumper pattern too. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment! Have a wonderful day! 😊❤️
Beautiful Ilha sweater. Great recommendations on other podcasts too. And now I think I need the 250 Japanese stitches to go with the Japanese stitch bible that’s been gathering dust. May just be able to understand the graphs now.
Hello! I just got some great information from a viewer saying a designer, Sari Nordlund, has patterns on Ravelry using some of the stitches from the 250 Stitches Japanese book. I think this would be a great way to learn how to knit these stitches without having to try to decipher the charts in the book . I found 2 patterns I’ll link for you that use the Japanese stitches techniques. You might want to look through her patterns to see if there are more than the 2 patterns I found. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!! 😊❤️ ravel.me/ciao-bella-cami ravel.me/empress-5
Workin on a Felix cardigan and an alpine bloom tee.
Great episode! Look at Sari Nordlund in ravelry, she uses Japanise Knitting Stitches a lot of her patterns🤗
Hi,are you doing any tutorial on any of your knitting pattern they are lovely but sometimes help is needed, thanks
Hi from California! First of all, I love your videos! Everything you make is so pretty! ❤
Second, I have that book and I have tried a couple of the stitch patterns. It's really amazing and there's such a variety. However, I have found a couple mistakes in the symbol guide. Hopefully you have a newer version. On mine on page 12, the stitch symbol 2nd from the bottom is exactly the same as the symbol on the top of page 13, but they're different stitches. The same mistake can be found on page 19 between the top symbol and the 5th one down. I've only tried a couple of these patterns, so just be careful. The mistakes, fortunately, have at least been easy to catch so far. The pictures really help so you know if a single stitch should be a purl or knit. Happy knitting 😊
Thank you Leah for the review of the Japanese Stitches book. I will look out for the mistakes on pages 12, 13 and 19. That’s the thing about knitting books, if there are mistakes it’s difficult to find someone to help you with the pattern. I appreciate you letting me know. Thank you for the lovely comments! You are so kind. I hope you have a wonderful day. Thank you for watching my little podcast. 😊❤️
Hi Bobbi, Thank you for all the fabulous information on your new favorite sweater. Would you mind telling me how you join in new ball of yarn with Sandness Garn. I'm knitting a cotton sweater and I'm having trouble deciding how best to add in a new ball. Thanks, Jan
I am knitting the Fjolla sweater by Isabell Kraemer with Cascade Yarns Ultra Pima, 100% Pima Cotton.
Sonja, I love the Fjolla sweater. I haven’t knit it yet, but I definitely want to. I love knitting lace. I also really like Cascade yarn. Sounds like a winner to me! Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment! Have a great day. 😊❤️
Oh my gosh, your Ilha tee is fabulous!!!. I’m inspired to knit one, I do have one already in my queue but have Sandnes Garn line and now want to knit another. Did you find the yarn stretches a bit? I love the video of you modelling it, you look great! Thanks for the suggestions of other podcasts.
Hi Susan! Thank you for the lovely comment! I loved knitting the Ilha pattern and it’s a joy to wear. I haven’t noticed much stretching, but I have only worn it a couple hours while I was filming my video. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. Have a wonderful day! 😊❤️
WIPs: two pair of socks for me, a pair of socks for my husband, Corran cardigan in short sleeves, Pi tank, winter Ranunculus, Musselburgh (purse knitting) and 1/2 and 1:2 triangle. I always have at least two pair of socks on the needles. As you can tell, I am NOT a monogamous knitter. 😊
Oh my gosh Deborah, you really do love to knit. Being surrounded by wips sounds like heaven to me! I have also purchased the Corran Cardigan. I think I’ll knit the v neck short sleeve version of the Corran. Thank you so much for commenting, I always love to hear what everyone is knitting. Thank you for watching my little podcast! Have a wonderful day! 😊❤️
I am making the Baseball Jacket by Debbie Bliss for my grandson who is turning 1 year old in August. I am making the jacket in Ohio State colors because that is my alma mater.
Hi Kathy! The Baseball Jacket pattern looks amazing. That is such a wonderful knitted gift for your grandson. I grew up in the Midwest so I am familiar with Ohio State. He’s going to look like a little athlete in his new sweater. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment! 😊❤️
So pleased to have found you. Loved watching your podcast and I have subscribed. Your Ilha top is beautiful. I love this pattern. I have made it twice but made short-sleeved dresses using the pattern. That braid down the side is such a gorgeous detail. I really enjoy your aesthetic. I have a UA-cam channel as well where I put out weekly podcasts and tutorials. I think you might like it. It is called Mostly Knitting and I am tashbalaz on ravelry. Looking forward to watching more of your episodes from here in Sydney, Australia. Have a great week. :)
Hello! Thank you so much! I know, the Ilha pattern is amazing. The Ilha knit as a dress, it must be gorgeous! I can’t wait to watch your UA-cam channel. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! You are so kind. Have a wonderful day. 😊❤️
I absolutely love the top you are wearing. Is it easier than the ranunculus? Love your color choices on all your knits. Thank you.
Hello! Thank you for the kind compliment! Yes, I would say the Ranunculus is easier than the Ilha Sweater, but sometimes that depends on the knitter’s experience. The Ranunculus is definitely faster to knit. I am currently knitting another Ranunculus to help with any questions regarding the two sweaters. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment! 😊❤️
Twist loop cast on?
Hello from South Australia. Is the sports weight chosen to compensate for the colourwork which needs to be looser? Knitting the No. 12 sweater by my favourite things. But knitting with a fleece yarn 3-4ply. So knitting with 2 strands and one strand of mohair. So its a thicker knit. As not able to get gauge. Can the Ranunculus be knitted in any gauge yarn? As I have more of the 3-4ply.
I know this isn’t the correct episode, but I thought you and your viewers might like to know that the Andalusia Top has been released on Ravelry. Apparently she had forgotten to release it there and when I contacted her to ask about it she quickly added it. Hope you can let your viewers know.
Enjoyed your video! I’m not familiar with the alpine bloom pattern. Is it possible it’s finger weight held double ? Have a wonderful summer ❤️🇨🇦
I made the same sweater and love it. Doesn’t look as nice as yours so I’ll have to knit it again😂
Hello! Wasn’t the Ilha Sweater a fun pattern to knit? I’m sure your Ilha sweater is beautiful!! Thank you so much for the lovely comment and thank you for watching! Have a wonderful weekend! 😊❤️
Thank you
Hi, Bobbie
I was wondering where you purchased the Sandnes Garn Line. I have been looking for a place to purchase this yarn online and have only found it listed on ebay and etsy. I would love to knit the Ilha using the same yarn you did for your sweater.
Hi Julie! My daughter bought it for me on Etsy, but I have bought Sandnes Garn at the link I’ve attached below. Located in Charlottesville, Virginia. They do have Sandnes Garn Line in stock online. Thank you for watching! 😊❤️ ewefibers.com/collections/yarn/products/line
Love this pattern! The prononciation is Ilyah. Do you think it is good for learning like the Ranunculus? Thank you for sharing, watching from under my wool blankets in the South of Brazil, very cold here.
Hello! All the way from Brazil! So good to meet you. Yes, I think this a good pattern for learning new stitch combinations. The pattern is well written and easy to understand. I truly love this pattern just as much as I love the Ranunculus. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment! Keep warm under your wooly knits. Have a wonderful weekend! 😊❤️
Hi Bobbi, lovely podcast. Can you recommend a source for Sanders Garn Line in the US? Thanks!
Hi Mary! Thank you so much. Here is the link to Haus of Yarn Nashville it carry’s Sandnes Garn Line. www.hausofyarn.com/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage&q=Sandnes%20Garn%20Line*
Have a great day! 😊❤️
I’m knitting the Joni summer tee, really enjoying knitting it.
What is the peach tee you have behind you ?
Hi Barbara! Thank you for telling me about the Joni Tee. I went on Ravelry, it’s beautiful. The peach tank behind me is called the Sunshine Bliss Tank Top by Rhonda Yerxa. It’s a test knit I had done for Rhonda a couple months ago. It is knit with We Are Knitters The Cotton in the color Light Salmon. Thank you so much for watching and thank you for taking the time to comment! 😊❤️
Hi Bobbie. I'm a novice/intermediate knitter. I love how you knitted the Ilha top and the Ranunculus patterns. I have not purchased either yet. How in the world did you make the Ranaculus so fitted? (I'm hoping it's easy as I'm still learning 😉. Nice.podcast!
Hello Debbie. The yarn I chose is a thicker fingering weight. I also knit with size US 9 needles instead of the US 10 needles. Both of these choices gave me a more fitted Ranunculus. I also used the long tail cast on for the neckband, which is a really easy cast on. Here is a link to the Ranunculus Assistance playlist. These videos helped me when I knit my first Ranunculus. Thank you so much for watching and for commenting! 😊❤️.

Twinset Purl is a podcast with twin sisters from the UK. They have an Alpine Bloom KAL going right now. I think it goes thru Sept. 😊
Hi Dora! Upon your suggestion, I looked up Twinset & Purl podcast on UA-cam. I’m watching it right now. Thank you for letting me know about this joyful podcast. I subscribed and I started following them on Instagram! Thank you so much for watching my podcast and for taking the time to comment! I appreciate it so much!! 😊❤️
I try to support them by watching. They have a lot of sock patterns, do monthly sock collabs with Botanical Yarn, and one of them is fighting myeloma. They don't have that many subscribers yet so thanks for watching them!
Its never a Dilemma with Spincycle to use it in Fingering or Sport weight patterns, with Dyed in the Wool or Nocturne
Hello. I love your information. I cannot find you on Ralvery. Can you share a link or the name you go by? Many sincere thanks!
Thank you Shawna! My Ravelry name is Bobbiknitsit! Have a great day!🥰
Were you thinking of Sari Nordlund? I know she uses the Japanese Knitting Stitches in her designs.
Hello! Oh, I didn’t realize Sari Nordlund uses Japanese stitches in her patterns. I’ll definitely have to knit some of her patterns using theses stitches. That would be a great way to understand how to read charts using Japanese stitches. Thank you so much for telling me about Sari’s patterns! The podcaster I was thinking about has also designed 2 hat patterns using Japanese stitches, is Tara Kennon. Her podcast is Loop Thru A Loop. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment. You made my day!! 😊❤️
😮Hi Bobbi, thanks for the Ihla info. Would it work with mohair and skinny alpaca too ? Looks fab on you. Did you double the yoke also ? 🥨🍻
Hello Fiona! I think the mohair and alpaca would be beautiful. If you go to Ravelry and search Ilha Yarn Suggestions you’ll probably find if anyone else has tried that yarn combination. For my sweater I knit with Sandnes Garn Line which is considered a lightweight worsted yarn. So I held the yarn single throughout the whole project. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! 😊❤️
LOVE your Ilha top❤ I have knit with this yarn before and liked it too. If you don’t mind, I have a question regarding knitting with cotton yarn since you are a very experienced knitter. When you pick up the sleeve stitches, in the transition from the stitches on the needle and the stitches you pick up at the underarm there are always stretched out stitches - at least for me - and they are more stretched out with cotton yarn than a merino yarn. Is there a trick to avoid this from happening ? Christine
Hello! Thank you for the complement! I love the Ilha Sweater too. Gaps under the sleeves of top down raglan sweaters will always happen because you are changing the direction of your knitting. Here is a good video explaining how to close the gaps. It’s an easy fix. The only thing I do differently than the video is I duplicate stitch the gap on the wrong side of the knitted fabric. That is a great question. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment! 😊❤️ ua-cam.com/video/Pc4EiYS17GQ/v-deo.html
@@knitterskniche Thank you!
Did you know “tink” is “knit” backwards? Thanks for podcast recommendations. I found some new one to try out.
That’s so thoughtful of you Jinhee, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Hoping you will see this comment. I have watched this video a few times, trying to get over my somewhat fear to start the Ilha, and I ordered the same yarn you used. My question is that the pattern calls for a fingering/sport weight, and the yarn you used according to the website you linked said it's a worsted weight. Is this yarn a light worsted, more like a DK? I'll probably need to swatch, but just wondering if you had any issues with the yarn weight for the pattern. TIA!
Hello! Please understand that if you choose to use Line yarn, it is a different weight yarn than what the pattern says and it will not produce the same gauge as needed. For it to fit me properly I had to make modifications because I chose to knit with Line yarn. Before I decided what yarn I wanted to knit the Ilha with, I looked at the yarn ideas in Ravelry. I saw that Sandnes Garn Line, which is worsted weight, was used in 6 other Ilha sweaters. Here is a link showing the other Ilha sweaters that were knit with Line. ravel.me/pvqr0h
I hope this helps. Here is the link to my Ilha sweater in Ravelry. My modifications are listed in the notes. ravel.me/Bobbiknitsit/i1
Thank you so much for watching! 😊❤️
Feel free to message me on Instagram if you have more questions. My Instagram name is knitterskniche.
@@knitterskniche Thank you, that was very helpful.
Did you say what the name is of the sweater vest behind you?
Hello Irene! No, sorry I neglected to mention it. The name of the tank is the Sunshine Bliss Tank Top by Rhonda Yerxa. Here is the link to my Ravelry project page. ravel.me/Bobbiknitsit/trm
Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊❤️
How can I get the pattern and any video how to do it please let me know

Thank you 💖
I had subscribed because I saw a thumbnail that was interesting and I thought you had tutorials, but, I haven't found one yet, and I can't read patterns, so I had to unsubscribe.
