    For anyone considering knitting the Step by Step sweater, the designer has a video on her UA-cam channel going through every step of the pattern, making it easier to follow for people who are visual learners :) Great video as always! 😊

      @@dianeespinoza8647 it’s not that I have never found the use I just have seen the use since watching UA-cam. There’s a real possibility of losing power and it would help keep you warm and my mom goes to dialysis so it can keep her warm on the ride. Plus living in Vegas we are not used to the cold so this can help.

    Last year I knit ten pairs of alofosslopi mittens using a free pattern from tin can knits because I had so much yarn left over after knitting two Icelandic sweaters. They knit up FAST and are so satisfying. If you decide to cast on mittens, be sure to research how to knit a thumb gusset without a hole, which is the bane of most mitten patterns!

    Thank you, thank you for these ideas. As soon as I saw it on your video, I knew I wanted to make The Lone Skein Shawl and figured I had the yarn, so after a 30-second search, I found the perfect one skein that had been hanging around waiting for the right project. Well, this is it. Got the pattern, found the yarn, grabbed the needles and I am ready for Christmas Eve!

    I found an amazing cute lacy scarf for a skein of silk I bought recently (I feel so extravigant!) called Enchanting Scarf on ravelry. It's going to take forever as it's lace weight, but it's a lovely mix of purples, and it's so amazing to work with.
    It's also a pretty easy lace pattern for a beginner who wants to branch out a bit.

    I loved your suggestion of using a stash skein of self striping yarn for a sock advent. I pulled one out and cast on 2 at a time. I couldn’t stick to one stripe a day and before I knew it they were finished. 🫢😬🧦🎄😂

    I'm knitting the step by step sweater right now as a Christmas present for my sister. (Yes, I know I need to hurry 😩). Its really easy and nice to follow as a beginner! It's my second garment. My first was a chunky cardigan. Between Christmas and new years I will knit 2 pairs of mittens as birthday presents, hopefully fingerless mittens for myself and a pair of socks for my mom. I have a full 2 weeks off so I hope to accomplish what I planned 😂

Thank you for another fun episode, I headed straight to Ravelry purchased the Gro hat (have a particular yarn in my stash that needed that special project for and that hat is it!) and the heartwarmer cowl. Now I'm ready to knit for our upcoming Aussie winter. It's been remarkably cold for us Aussies so far this summer, had to resort to the cardi & ugg boots type of cold, usually it's treacherously hot by now.......

    That gnome is adorable behind you laying sassy. I am like you never the kid or adult comfortable with wearing even the fleece bottoms like pj’s out in public. Going on the Polor Express this year and that is what is encouraged to wear. I will probably do like you to feel comfortable and not like I should have a bathrobe on . These patterns are so exciting to do. I am planning several take alongs with socks for January. In the beginning to sit in the hospital when spouse has surgery. Taking a hot water thermos for hot tea and knitting.

Even wearing PJs for something like that gives me pause, but it’s for the kiddos…and you can definitely get cute PJ sets that feel much more like comfy clothes in general. It’s sort of silly I guess that I put soo much thought into this. 🥴 Also, I hope your spouse has a speedy recovery from surgery. ❤️
