    I’m definitely here for all your Andrea Mowry knits and plans. The cowl is the perfect fit for keeping you cosy and warm and I just adore your Tessellated Pullover. The colours come together beautifully. I find it interesting how our gauge can change subtlety with different needles/knitting styles. I have a pair of socks where I knit one on DPNS and the other on short circulars. The latter definitely has a fractionally tighter gauge that you can’t see but I can feel when I put them on. 🧶🧦

      Isn’t gauge wild? I agree the tiniest change can make a huge difference! And I’m so happy you’re interested in the Andrea Mowry knits because it’s what I’m really into lately ☺️

    I love the colors you chose for your spinning! I can’t wait to see how they all come together.

    Loving the pillow so far!! I’ve been making tiny socks to make a little “stocking” garland to decorate my house

    Your towels are perfect Ahna! Anyone who receives one of them will be very lucky! Also, I'm so glad you will be using the bark yarn in your tessellated socks- looking forward to seeing them finished! The knitted houses too- so very cute!

      Here’s to hoping I’ll have them done by the end of the challenge next Monday ☺️ thank you again!! I know I’ll be able to make so many beautiful socks with the yarn you sent ❤️

    I was going to do the sock challenge but decided to work on finishing off some WIPs instead! I have like, three sock WIPs oops. Love your colors for everything as usual - the Tessellated looks amazing. The cowl is GORGEOUS. Also ughhh those housesssss

      ok wait more to say. I also LOVED Maggie's handspun Traveler Hoodie, and I'm so stoked you got Emily C Gillies - her fiber is incredible! Can't wait to see what you make!!

    I’m planning on doing the sock knit along. I don’t think that I’ll finish them during the weekend though.

    Wow! Your knitting and your weaving are really beautiful. I just love your podcast so much and I get lots of inspiration from you! I'm going to attempt to make some Christmas pillows similar to yours! Happy holidays and hugs from Texas!!

    Anna, your tea towel edges are 🤩, I like all your projects, you are inspiring me to spin, which I do, and make a house pillow! And a everyday cowl! And I am going to check out the podcast you recommended, and I have fawned over Emily’s dying through wool and waves, so I will check out her website. If you want a great pattern book that is easy to read, , I I believe it is by Ann Dixon,( weaving patterns)😊, I just went upstairs to look at what it is called, and I seriously misplaced my entire bookcase of weaving books! 😮re arranged up stairs to fit another loom. I know it’s up there somewhere! But, handwoven is great for tea towels! Happy thanksgiving!

      I am going to check out Ann Dixon 😃 thank you for the recommendation! And your compliment about my tea towel edges means so much, especially since you weave! Thank you so much 🥰

      @@brookwillow I found my book shelf, hah hah! Took a minute, or more like a day to spot it, the book is the handweavers pattern directory, by Anne Dixon, and my friend sister found it at the free store for her, and I took one look and ordered it right away, as it is I. Colour, and all the old books are black and white🐚

    I love all your current knits and spinning projects! However I have a question about a past episode, maybe even a year ago, where you showed the most adorable kids socks you had knit. Which episode was that? Is that your pattern, or someone else's? Where can I find it? Thank you!

    • @brookwillow
      @brookwillow  9 місяців тому +1

      Ahh yes! I believe you’re talking about the Fårbacken sockor för hela familjen av Erika Guselius. As you can guess the pattern is not in English but I plopped it in Google translate and it worked out great!
