I cannot wait for the new editions to the Tolsta range, as soon as they are out, I'm purchasing!! You are such a generous designers, there are a few out there that should take note and should feel embarrassed. Keep up your wonderful work, you are an inspiration x
Aww thank you SO much!
So nice to see you again and hear about all your makes and plans! As always, I really appreciate how you talk about your yarn experiences. Very helpful for future purchases. Happy knitting and hopefully sailing!
Rebecca, I do really enjoy your attention to detail regarding your patterns! For me it means a designer that’s really considering her audience and the knitting experience as well as a great fit! Thank you for that! ClaudiaSJI
Rebecca, I’ve been following you since day one. You’ve grown so much in your craft. I think I’ve said before that your brain is amazing to me. I’m exhausted when I hear of all you have going on, plus future plans plus life! Mind you I’m 68 and exhausted most of the time anyway. 🤪. Can’t wait for the sanna cardigan - lace is my jam 😊. Wish I could give you a hug, make you a cuppa and have you just sit and rest. Your mum must be so proud. 🤗🇨🇦
I feel the same, and I’m 69. Rebecca is amazing and I love her patterns.
Same! (Soon to be 61).
Loved catching your podcast this sunny afternoon ensconced on the couch with my current wip. Returned from a week of sailing around Ponui, Waiheke and Rotoroa Islands yesterday and love sitting on deck at sundown wrapped in my handknits, supping a G&T. Highly recommend 😊
Oh that sounds like PERFECTION
Pink looks great on you. Looking forward to the Tolsta Tank release. I have made the Tolsta Tee in both DK and Fingering. Love both! Thank you for the great patterns.
I love your podcast! You are a fabulous designer. I hope to get to Edinburgh someday soon.
I just made your Tosta Tee and I love it! Great pattern! Thanks a lot.
Thank you for another fun, engaging, informative poddy!. I love everything 😄
As soon as I saw your Instagram post from festival about that lobster, I went straight to Ravelry and bought the lobster pattern. Just started it and loving it. I can’t wait until it’s done
Awesome pink Tolsta. Waiting patiently for the Sanna cardi to come…love your blue one. ❤ Thank you.
Loved the podcast 😂 the polo top in fingering would be great for down under weather. The Lanark is going to be just the sailors form 🎉
Love catching your podcast and listening to your knitting passion. Remember to take time out to enjoy the sunshine 😊
That is honestly the most beautiful vest! My sister and I will be visiting Scotland in November and my plan is to find the pattern in a local yarn shop, buy Scottish yarn, and create a special souvenir from my once in a lifetime trip. I can't wait!
Bound off my Tolsta Tank Vest while watching and not considering ordering the drops belle in hot pink! I’m loving this yarn and just want to do all the summer knits in it.
Also I’m so used to your videos and the cadence of your speech. But my mom saw the intro and was like uhhh what did she just say? 😂😂😂
Rebecca, yes, please talk as much gauge and knitting geek stuff as you like. I love hearing that information and so much of the time I feel like the only one that enjoys that. Take care.
Love the herringbone pattern ❤❤❤
Ditto! I had been wondering where that one went ;) will definitely be knitting the Kip 😍
Thanks for keeping me company while I do a tubular bind off!
Thanks Rebecca, great podcast. Loved the pink on you 💓💓💓 x
Oh my god, the KFO cotton merino neon yellow colour has been on my mind CONSTANTLY since they announced it, it is so interesting! Love to see progress on your Kip sweater, I’m excited for that one :)
ME TOO. What other colours are coming!? I'm so excited.
@the.creabea theres a pale blue called blueberry icecream they also announced, and a lovely pink as well! Exceptional spring colours truly
Thank you for the elastic idea! I knit a wrap sweater and it is gaping so much I’ve never worn it!!! I’m going to try the elastic.
Thanks Rebecca, it’s nice to catch up with you again.
I love the orange vest! Is there any way to knit it, and avoid steeking? The 11th commandment “Thou shall not steek?”
I'm approaching the part on my Lanark where I join in the round. I'm curious when you say "knit inside out," is the stitch repeat the exact same? You just have the WS facing you instead of the RS? I'm debating starting it like that to see which way I match gauge the best.
Also, I'm using the same yarn as you, and I love it! It's so rustic, but it's going to be a wonderful outer layer (I hope)!
Scheepjes does indeed mean little boat or little ship. So many people pronounce it sheepies 😅 I wish I could get as much knitting done as you do but you always inspire me to pull out projects and crack on with them.
Lovely podcast and projects! Did I miss how to apply for the test knit? I’m definitely interested in the cardigan version!
The vest? I had just done the test call for Rhue so I emailed those who applied for that for the vest. It was an unusual one for me!
I love your Tolsta Tank. ❤ My days of sleeveless tops are gone (bingo wings...sigh), but I would so be on board if I didn't want to traumatize others. 🤣 Currently working on my first Tolsta Tee, and I love your attention to putting out a high quality pattern.
Love your videos, your thought processes, and your patterns. 🤗
That pink looks so good on your complexion!
"Potimarron" is a kind of squash in French (onion squash according to my dictionary...). Your pronunciation in French is amazing!
I love your patterns and color choices.
I LOVE THE KIP. An idea for sleeves, if you’ll allow… you could do a faux seam by slipping a single stitch one row, knitting it the next. Should look like your lateral braid, but vertical. That way you can break the pattern and do decreases while keeping the style. Just a thought! Can’t wait to make it
YES! I had exactly something like this in mind! Just need to do some swatch and make sure it's not too much.
Hahaha, I got the ‘Knit your own seagull’ kit at the Harrogate Knitting and Stitching Show!! Made it up almost immediately (including chip) - the book of patterns is brilliant. I was torn though between the seagull and the highland coo!!🤭😂
Love this! The samples were all so tempting
Scheepjes, does indeed mean " little boats" in dutch. I like the striped version of the Lanark Sweater.
I had to laugh so much when you registered that the new Bridgerton season is the same date as the cotton merino rerelease, because that was my immediate thought as well. How good can a day get 😂 very much looking forward to both
Loving the polo shirt pattern 😊
I love the polo neck sweater!
The herringbone looks great.
What is the yarn for the chicken sweater (Kipp-not sure how to spell)? I love that design! In fact, I really enjoy all of your videos and particularly the thoughtfulness that you put into your designs and how you talk about it! Thanks
De Rerum Natura Ulysse!
The basic trial garment is a 'mockup'? A pattern that can be tweaked before making/cutting fabric or knitting a wearable fitting thing.
Usually in sewing a "Toile" but as a person that works in tech, I much prefer mockup!
I would love the herringbone sweater in a v neck version ❤
I have a Briggs and Little Regal sweater I knit in the 90’s and I still wear it. Not much pilling at all and definitely a work horse yarn.
Love to hear that!
Hi Rebecca, @Creabea Knitting, Have I missed parts 2 and 3 podcasts about NZ knitting adventures? I'm a born again knitter from Auckland, New Zealand.
Myrtle is awesome! Brava!! 🎉
Thank you!! 😁
Striped Lanark, G&T, bandana for your hair on the boat! Picture worthy!
Perfection!
Hi.I the Tolsta Tee. Have you released the sleeve instructions for the 4ply version or have I missed it. By the way I have a lot of your patterns just need time to knit them
Not yet, the sleeves and the bust shaping are currently being test knit. Will be updated mid-June
Hi Rebecca loved the podcast. Can you say the name of the company that made your favourite project bag at 18:53? I got 'Apodonnie' but when googling that I couldn't find anything for project bags. Thank you.
www.apolonnie.com/
@@the.creabea Thank you! Was just one letter off 😆
I'm subscribed to a whole list of Russian and Turkish knitting channels that post videos demonstrating various stitches 😂 I use them as a kind of stitch dictionary, though that makes it difficult to reference if I ever want to write up patterns using the stitches 🥴
ME TOO!
This was the first time I actually had to slow down the video to catch all the words. 😃 It was funny because at some places it sounded a bit... drunk. 🙈 But at least I did catch all!
I'm sorry for the Tides, has been looking forward to knitting it. Nevermind, I'll wait. 🙂
Have a great weekend!
Myrth pattern going to be sold as single pattern? Its beautiful
It will, but not until next year. The pattern rights are retained by the magazine for 12 months
I don't know if anyone said that already: I think the sample for the Kip is perfect for the "chicken" part, since the texture reminds me a bit of a white chicken feather :3
Someone said the stitch looks like little chicken feet scratches! But I love the idea of it being like a feather too.
Pink really suits you Rebecca!
eee thank you!
Did you say that the "Appolony bag" is your favorite bag? I must have misheard.
Yes! www.apolonnie.com/
I'd like to start my Lanark but I never received the pattern.
Hey, pretty sure you've mentioned this before and I cant send you the pattern unless you email me, or I don't know who to send it to. Just drop me an email.
Is that a crew neck collar?
Yes scheepjes is little ships in Dutch 😅😂
If you don't have a fingering weight sample knitter, I'd love to make one for you!
What’s the eta on the release of the Tolsta Tank I so need to knit some
First week of June!
@@the.creabea yay can’t wait
Love your designs. Your pronunciation of Scheepjes was correct for little ship. There is a UA-cam video that sounds out the correct way to say it & you were right on - skep yez. Tired of hearing too many people say sheep jeez.
I speak Dutch so I probably have an unfair advantage on the pronunciation!
potimarron means pumpkin in French Rebecca 🎃 x
AHHHH. this is so cool
Love your Tolsta Tank…. I also hate seeing the bra strap
You look lovely in pink!
OMG how many lost nights of sleep have been had by knitters when they finish a garment late at night and try it on unblocked, no ends woven in, no bra, no makeup or hair on top of ancient pajama bottoms -- UGH!!!! Love the wrap top and the waistcoat. Congrats on the magazine release!!
It's so true! And then go to bed feeling so dejected
Oh my goodness you speak so fast I’m struggling at times to understand you even though English is my first language. 😂 I will struggle on.
