Love the knits you are both wearing. I agree with you, Kim, that new knitters know way more than many of us who have been knitting forever. Most of my knitting years I was a lone knitter, no blogs, no u-tube, no knit group, limited resources, so not many how to books- now I seem to be learning something new from rookie knitters every day. I discovered life lines when knitting a lace shawl for my daughter for her wedding about 7 years ago- how did I go 45 years before I found this amazing tip? Intarsia drives me crazy, so cud’s to you Kim for knitting that beautiful, but challenging sweater. Jonna your grandkids are adorable and so sweet to get a call every day. Thanks for another great episode, lots of inspiration!
Hi Jennifer! Sorry for the delayed reply, but thank you so much for watching and for such thoughtful comments. I personally learn so much from Jonna every day! And I've been knitting so much longer than she has. And guess what? I finished my Amina!!! E16 airs on 3/3 and you'll hear all about it. :) Kim
My grandaughter lives a5 minute drive away but she Facetimes us alot. She is 5 .Yesterday she FaceTimed and was a Vampire with bright red lipstick smeared on and around her lips. We talked to her for about 45 minutes. Then Mommy came in her room and we found out she had been sent up to her room to clean it.
Everywhere we go on holiday, our children ir friends go on holiday we always get a teatoel as a keepsake. We have one that we're bought our Mum and Dad before they died and its nearly 50 years old and still going. Happy new year ladies 😍
Another great episode. Love to see the progress on the baby blanket. I haven’t made one in so long and trying soon to design one for my nephew… he is just 2 weeks old!
Y'all are so fun to listen to! It's like sitting in with a great knit group. I use it as spinning time but dream of all the knitting I'm inspired to do! Kim, I'm a project knitter like you. Towards the end of the project I just want to get done because I want the thing I'm knitting. I only allow myself 2 WIPs; my main project and socks (I always have socks on my needles for car knitting). Kim, you have also inspired me to pair my stash yarn with projects I want to knit. Once I did that I was scared at how many projects I have! 😲 Jonna, you inspire me by your fearless knitting. You seem to jump into projects for the opportunity to learn something new or try a new yarn. 🤗 I so enjoy your videos! Many thanks for putting them out there!💟
I had a true record scratch moment when Jonna explained lifelines and the small hole on Chiaogoo needles! I've often wondered what that was for. Kim, the yarn choice in the sweater you are wearing is gorgeous. The ladies at PUES are so helpful-especially to husbands that are in search of Christmas gifts. Thanks so much for sharing ladies!
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna I received a sweater's quantity of Knitting for Olive pure silk in dove blue. I'm planning on making a cumulus tee by Petiteknit.
Hi, first time I see your UA-cam channel.The yarn Snefnug was nice ❤ Here in Norway snefnug is spelled snøfnugg and that is the name of every snow drop that fall down.
Love all your hat yarns Kim!! Ambitious for sure!! Your blue sweater is beautiful 💙! The red sweater/scarf combo is gorgeous 😍 The baby blanket is beautiful and looks so cozy. Keep going!! Jonna you look so Regal in your shawl! The neutral color looks great on you too. The Musselbourgh hat is dreamy. Love it!
Jonna you looked so beautiful put together- may have finally found a shawl worth spending time and money on - and Kim - just love that sweater - gorgeous- so much fun listening while working on my project 🧶happy knitting
This was such a fun one to watch! The door opening/closing or bumping around in the shop makes good exercise for me… I’m constantly running upstairs thinking one of my toddlers is awake and escaping their room 😂 I know that sounds like negative feedback, but it’s not… nothing beats the relief of being able to come right back downstairs knowing they’re fast asleep and I can resume my me-time haha.
I had a wonderful trip to NYC with my daughter 5 years ago when I didn’t knit so much. Now I said to my husband we need to go to NYC so I can buy yarn 😂. He’s not up for it 😉🙁🧶🇬🇧
Yarn sub is a great website, I've used it several times! When I'm traveling I usually ask for a locally died yarn but I'm going to try asking about an exciting yarn next time. That was a great idea!
Thanks for another great episode, you are such a good company, just love it ! Your grandson setting up an alarm to facetime you everyday, is so precious. The red sweater in mohair, definitely caught my eye....will check it out when I visit Pick Up Every Stitch. Cheers to a great 2023!
Tynd/Sno is absolutely lovely and wonderful to knit with but at certain gauges, it does pill horribly on 2 garments I've knit at ~ a 24 stich/4" gauge. It seems to be holding up a little better in cardigan that I knit at a 28 - 30 stitches/4" gauge, and I think it'll be much better in a hat and super soft and cozy :)
Kim, I haven't read Kaffe Fassett's early books for years but I think he recommends doing intarsia the way you're doing it - leave a long tail and knit it until it's used up.
My copy of Worsted is coming today- from Stars Hollow Yarn! And most of the yarn I will use is in my stash, waiting maybe 20 years for this sweater. Long strands on the intarsia section all the way, lesson learned from Kaffe Fassett color work.
Such a wonderful episode. Looking forward to seeing your finished sweater Kim. What an accomplishment! And I 100% agree with Jonna about Pascuali Tibetan DK. I’m in love with the yarn and have to eventually use for a ME sweater.
hi guys! Loved every minute of your vlogmas so vlog away! With Christmas done and my baby set sent and received, I'm working on finishing my wips for 2022. 2 oversized cardi's(what was I thinking? lol) left. I have 2 sweaters ready to go, both Andrea Mowry patterns. Love when she plies her yarn and shows us what she is doing. I have learned so much watching her friday q and a vlog. Sheep - I found out virgin wool is the very first shearing the sheep gets. I had no idea. So now I am hooked on watching the sheep videos and learning about sheep. So many. And sheep that shed their wool??? yeah it's a thing but evidently mostly bred out of the sheep here. Who knew that was a thing? And the musselburgh hat. I've seen so many people making them. I'm tempted to get the hat pattern. Knittyknatty Natalie has made a ton of them and done lots of modifications. But I had no clue about being able to use other weights of yarn. I am also tempted to get the monster cable pattern. It looks so scrumptious. And the colors Kim chose. I live vicariously through you since I have no local yarn shop and no one to knit with. Good thing I like my own company...
Hi Kat! Thank you so much and Happy New Year. Sounds like you will be busy! Jonna's cousin in CA has two of those sheep that shed their wool. They're from the Outer Hebrides...can't remember the breed right now. Love Andrea's Q/A podcasts!
I recently found your videos and have enjoyed getting to “know” you and to see your WIPs and FOs. I’m so glad that Jonna says she can’t knit as much since the puppy came. Our puppy Gracie arrived in early December and my knitting time has definitely shifted to puppy care. Fingers crossed she’ll grow up soon and the needles can get the attention they deserve!
It’s unbelievable how much time those puppies can take up. I got a baby Maltese in October and had forgotten how much time they take up. Good luck with yours.
@@dianeberthelot5618 it is amazing the amount of time an 8 lb puppy can consume! My kids are grown, but it takes me back to having toddlers. I hope yours is getting easier now!
@@kellycaffarelli83 it is getting a little easier but he is so full of energy and mischief. We,we’re ten years younger the last time we had a puppy and she was very timid and laid back. Toddler years is a perfect choice for,a,description.
You are always a source of knitting inspiration and joy! Loved the Vlogmas series; definitely voting to add that shorter and informal format on your "menu"! Maybe call it Swatch-cast or something to that effect? 🤣
Hey my sweet ones. I'm so giddy from this episode! Your vlogmas' were amazing. You were both so professional!! Thank you for the history behind the names and pronunciations. I always look those up too.
Thank you for the episode. I looked at all of my Chigoo needles and could not find a hole in them for inserting a life line. This hole must be on interchangeables not fixed circulars.
Enjoyed Vlogmas with you. I like that they give us a glimpse of you and your family and enjoy that they are short. I got a bit behind but think I am caught up now. You have inspired me to knit everything. I did start a pair of Arne and Carlos’s basic felted slippers. Wishing you both a Happy New Year!
Thank you, Karen! WIPs are an inevitable part of being a knitter. And where do you want to insert a pic? Unfortunately, it's not possible on UA-cam for viewers to insert/post pics. Annoying.
so excited when receiving the notification from this channel that there’s a new video! I enjoy watching so much. Is there a trick to keeping the Cocoknits Stitch Stoppers on the needles? I purchased a set and they always fall off my needles! Are they only for wooden less slippery needles? Thanks
Hi ladies enjoyed the podcast . Kim let us know when you start your Felix cardigan & what you think of the pattern. I cast on mine during the xmas holidays. I'm using Jamieson of Shetland aran weight. Loving the knit but hoping I can get the fit I want. It also looks like you ladies have some gorgeous yarn shops over there. Happy New Year to you both & thanks for keeping me company whilst I make dinner. Take care. X
The Hoarfrost is a lovely shawl but my pattern did not include a chart. I much prefer charts. I probably wouldn’t have done it if I had noticed sooner. I’m also making the musselburgh hat after realizing I’m not going to find the hats (maybe 5 of them) that I put away after last winter. I know, it’s crazy!! I once took care of someone’s dog who pooped out a pair of thong underwear🤭 Love your podcast and look forward to extra shorts.
Jonna would love to know what you will be knitting for the new baby. I'm expecting my first grandchild in April. I still have time to complete some baby projects if you'd like to share some knowledge. Congrats to your family
I just finished an overall and cardi set for my sisters daughters baby girl. It was so cute and just a tiny bit of cable work. And quick to knit up. It's on ravelry if you are interested. I think it could be done in a neutral color and work for either boy or girl. I knit it up in 3 weeks I think. Found out around thanksgiving and had it to her before Christmas. She's tiny so it won't fit for awhile even though I made the 1-3 month size. I so enjoyed knitting it up. I'm sure whatever you knit will be beautiful and you'll have way more time to make things. lol
Hi Donna. Congratulations on your first grandchild! How exciting. Honestly, I am not sure what I will make. We don't know the sex of the baby yet. Also, they live in Texas and the baby will be born in the hottest time of year! I have made the Tin Can Knits "Rocky Pants" and the Newborn Vertebrae cardigan. I love making bonnets, especially the Baby Bear one from Knitting For Olive. I would love to knit the baby a blanket for posterity. I don't love making blankets though! Keep us posted on what you choose!
I can’t knit with WoolFolk Yarns . I don’t know why this happens with me and certain yarns I’m assuming it’s vintages? Honestly no clue why some yarns smell when you knit with them. Its so intense that it burns my throat, nose, and eyes. Its very bizarre. I had to return the yarn I didn’t cake up. I always only cake one hanks at a time because I have run into this before . Its VERY rare. Its unfortunate because I honestly love how it knits up, its lovely, so very soft, squishy and light. If anyone knows why that happens or has a similar problem with some yarns, if you know what that is I’d appreciate knowing. Thanks so much. I never know until I knit with it, its very disappointing. I love the fabric I got with my swatch. I could only knit maybe 6 rows on a at 6 inche wide swatch it was too uncomfortable my throat, nose and eyes were.
Wow, that is crazy. I am sure you are not alone though. Must be something in the processing of the wool/dye? I wonder if it would be worth inquiring so you could narrow it down?
Kim-Happy New Year to you and Jonna! I have a question for you-please tell me how you blocked your Tweed Tee. I am finishing that tee now with the same yarn you used. Since it has yak in it-did you soak your sweater or what. Please let me know!! Many thanks, Angela ❤
Jonna, I have a glutton-gut dog that eats any thing he can get his mouth around. I keep an unopened bottle of hydrogen peroxide in my cupboard. If he eats anything he shouldn't, I take a turkey baster full of HP and make him drink it, allowing him to swallow every few seconds. Within seconds, he is retching up the offending object or substance. That has saved me several urgent care vet visits.
Oh gosh. I had to do this once when a lab of ours got into some brownies that were on the counter! She was fine, though. Evidently there’s not enough chocolate in a brownie or two, to cause illness. Yes, my little guy does not have a discriminating palate!! Lucky I got a turkey baster for Christmas 🤣🤣🤣
I found Ysolda talking about Musselburgh in a video, so you can listen to her say it. The 'gh' are silent. Here is a 5 second clip. ua-cam.com/users/clipUgkxkwaWvL4UOp-M7VeZvJexXS_9cWLGFrJA
Heather is the owner of On the Lamb Yarn Shoppe in Grapevine, TX and she is simply LOVELY! I'm so happy you got to visit that shop. 😻😻😻😻😻😻

Black pompom
Entre lac is not difficult
Jonna, I have a glutton-gut dog that eats any thing he can get his mouth around. I keep an unopened bottle of hydrogen peroxide in my cupboard. If he eats anything he shouldn't, I take a turkey baster full of HP and make him drink it, allowing him to swallow every few seconds. Within seconds, he is retching up the offending object or substance. That has saved me several urgent care vet visits.
Oh gosh. I had to do this once when a lab of ours got into some brownies that were on the counter! She was fine, though. Evidently there’s not enough chocolate in a brownie or two, to cause illness. Yes, my little guy does not have a discriminating palate!! Lucky I got a turkey baster for Christmas 🤣🤣🤣
Where are. you getting your pompoms?
Kim bought all of them at Pick Up Every Stitch in Mt Kisco, NY.
How do you find new designers? I would love to get some feedback on mine. Thanks!
Good question... and we don't really have a good answer. I think I just found and followed you on Instagram, so that's a start. :) Kim
I found Ysolda talking about Musselburgh in a video, so you can listen to her say it. The 'gh' are silent. Here is a 5 second clip. ua-cam.com/users/clipUgkxkwaWvL4UOp-M7VeZvJexXS_9cWLGFrJA
Yes!! 😉
