    I’m Japanese! The yarn you got from Oomomo is called “Hitsuji chan Natural”, it’s 100% Uruguay wool and I think it’s sport weight. Hope it helps!:)

    I am in awe of your persistence with the vest! Whenever I make a mistake I have a really hard time recovering my drive for the project so that was amazing to me. I can’t wait to see your colourwork sweater take shape, all mohair seems like a daunting knit!

      Thank you - was very close to frogging several times! Two strands of mohair is going to be a lot…haha but after this vest, I think I’m ready 😅😂

    For your mini skirt yarn, you could alternate skeins every other row. That might blend it enough.

    I have to say that you have a lot of perseverance to have finished that vest!!! 😁 I’m not sure I would’ve made it through. I might’ve just rolled that yarn back up and started a new project! But it is super cute on you and you definitely should keep it and enjoy it since you worked so dang hard on it.😂

      I was close to frogging so many times! But then I thought idk what else to make with this plutlopi so might as well finish 😂

    Your Vest is a piece of art! I'm glad you're keeping it, it suits you so well! Excited for that colorwork sweater😊

      Thank you!! It’s definitely one of my most challenging knits and now a statement piece for me ☺️ and now onto this colourwork sweater which hopefully won’t be too much of a struggle haha

    What a beautiful knit! The colour combination is 🤩 Thank you for speaking about unspun yarn. I couldn't decide between manchelopis and Plötulopi and your opinion has been very helpful 💜

    • @hipknithooray
      @hipknithooray  Місяць тому

      Ah glad it was helpful! They’re quite different from each other in my opinion and I feel like it’s kind of hard to tell online

    Marking my repeats with stitch markers has been a game changer for me. Even if I have the pattern memorized, I still make mistakes and need to frog back every once in a while.

    I’m in my “grey WIPs era” as well 😅
    I don’t knit how it happened, but most of them are grey

    I also made the mistake of using two different dye lots with a black yarn. Unfortunately, it was soooo obvious to see in the finished garment. I wouldn’t recommend it 😬❤

      Ugh that’s so frustrating! But I needed to hear that haha 😂 maybe I’ll try helical knitting with it

    Your photos for the bolero shown you using a metal needle and wood needle for this project. Why?

    • @hipknithooray
      @hipknithooray  Місяць тому

      It’s mainly whatever needle I have on hand and I find my gauge doesn’t change too much when I do it! I was using wood needles to knit the main piece but the end of the needle is metal so it might have looked like that in some photos 😅😂 and then I bound off with the metal needle because I couldn’t find my DPNs
