I like the variety of your knits and your pattern inserts. Good discussion on your needle types, I like using the really small needles and cord circumference for sleeves, either Lykke or Karbonz brands. Good luck with your channel, your straightforward approach is very pleasant.
Hi Kitty, great first podcast, congratulations. Your Rosabella sweater is very pretty and I have added it to my favourites. I'm also knitting the field sweater, my second one actually. I gave the first one to a friend because the wool irritated me but the pattern is lovely so I had to make it again 😊
Try Knitting for Olive for your mohair. I find that the color on the website is true to what you get, so you should be able to hold your yarn against the screen to color match.
My experience with using mohair held double with a fingering weight is just with Leo & Roxy (Canadian dyer), but when I use mohair, the colour tends to dominate the fingering weight yarn, even though it's thin and not as fuzzy looking as some, but when I use their Suri Alpaca yarn instead of the mohair, the fingering yarn colour dominates, even though the Suri Alpaca is much fuzzier and thicker looking than the mohair. I don't know if that is the case with all mohairs and Suri alpacas, but it is with the ones I knitted with, and I've used them multiple times. So maybe consider Suri Alpaca to hold with your fingering yarn instead.
Hello from New HampshireUSA. I enjoyed your podcast, your white sweater is beautiful.
@@sharonhoughton8057 Thank you!
I love my red lace interchangeable Chaiagoo needles. I’ve had them at lest 10 or more years. I have never had any problems with them. Good podcast

I wonder if some people think you have to knit a jumper from the bottom, so think your collar on the needles is the hem ?
@@jennistevenson796 maybe!
I find that Chio Goo have the most flexible cords especially when doing magic loop. Lykke are my least favorite cords too stiff.
@@karenfeek1706 I’ve never used Lykke, but they are so pretty!
100%alpaca, will it expand?
@@TheManeemana it grew a bit with washing/blocking, but not too much. Less than what I’ve experienced from super wash wool.
@kitty.clark.creates thank you ❤️, I was worried I want to use it too.
