@@thewoollyworker it is beautiful and ssssoooo soft. Ive just finished my rock it tee and its on the blocking mats and cant decide what to pick up next. I can’t face anything that takes brain power or picking up stitches tonight lol
Hello, first time viewer, had a look at your Instagram too. Love that you showed your wips. I only have 5 now that I finished a crochet granny square tote bag. One long time wip is a blanket which I think, will remain a wip as I dont need any blanket, sad to admit. Not any sock in my wips as I dont need socks either. I only "need" sweaters or cardigans, even summer knits are tempting, but I do not wear those I have. Think you should choose one wip you really like and finish it in front of us, a vlog with progress every day and final result.
@@nadinedetain6765 thank you so much for watching and your suggestions. I might do a finish it vlog again soon. I did one a few weeks ago when i managed to get my first sabai top finished and my feels right tee. Doing the WIP video has inspired me to work on some things this week 😊
Always enjoy your videos and seeing what your working on. I don’t have quite as many WIPS but my to do list is very long😂 I think you should work on the underlace top and salty days sweater next since they both seemed to be getting close to done.😊
My mom was watching this with me and she commented on how many ideas we have in common. I’ve been talking about doing a lot of these projects😂. As well, thanks for the idea of using the drops alpakka- I have the cool mohair but didn’t know which yarn to put with it as I had been inspired by the wooly worker too.
@@ajborthwick7239 yay so nice your mum was watching too. The drops alpakka is super soft. Ive no idea how it wears as this is the first time ive used it but that sweater is super soft.
Oh I would try on all the socks you have on the go too to make sure they fit before you go any further as you don’t want the disappointment of doing all that work and not having them fit!
Oh so many thoughts,… as usual lol First- so great to see all your WIPs! 13 doesn’t seem bad to me for a WIP list. I’ve definitely seen more on podcasts:) I think it’s a good idea to finish up the Paul and the Rock It Tee first as they do both seem close to a finish and will do wonderful things for your stash number!
@@ajborthwick7239 Yes I definitely need to get those two done. I finished the neck on the Paul sweater last night and today i will at least pick up stitches for the sleeves. For some reason that project is pretty hard on my hands.
I love the idea of doing voting but that’s just because it would be fun. I would think about how you like to knit- multiple projects in a day? One project per day? One project per week? Your WIPs seem as though they could be categorized into a few areas and then you could pick one project from each category to work on. For example- Socks- fallow, yucca berry socks, petal drop socks Summer tops- Rock it Tee, Underlace top, Sabai top, Nuus light Sweaters- Paul, Salty Days, daft days, cosy classic raglan Gift- single malt Accessory- ole mittens
@@ajborthwick7239 i think im quite happy to knit on one project for a few days in a row if i can see progress and its a pleasant knit after that i start to get bored lol. I really like your idea of grouping them though as I never thought to do that. I could then have two things to switch between from different categories to mix it up 😊
I think I might have more than you if I’m honest with you 😂 I’d go for the rocket tee as a quick win for the first focus, that will give you some quick dopamine and push you on to do more. I also would really love to see how the colours work up in the end
@@emily_knits_ i think that the rock it tee probably is a good option and will be nice to get it done as its something i can wear 😊 i wasnt sure anyone would have as many as me apart from @FinnishKnittingStories 🤣 i am not alone xxx
For the sabai top, I think perhaps block it now, see if the armhole works and if it has enough drape and if it doesn’t frog it so it’s not taking up space in your head.
@@mlea79 glad I could help. I’ll try another Suzanne Muller pattern but I don’t think I’ll make another Sabai- I’m lazy I just want to be able to follow a pattern and not have to adjust everyrhing
omg my vote is for the Cloud/Cozy classic sweater !! what a stunning suri !!

@@maradevincenzi8388 thank you. Both excellent sujjestions but i do think the underlace will take longer as its a 30st gauge but I could wear that xx

@@ajborthwick7239 yes i best do that. You know my track record with socks lol
@@mlea79 lol but it’s great I get to see all these socks before I knit them:)

@@mlea79that sounds like a good way to work through them:)

Was just watching another podcast and they did the Margaux top by Gregoria Fibres which is a textured boat neck.
@@ajborthwick7239 i have that on my favourites. Only thing that stops me is it looks quite high at the neck at the front 🤷🏻♀️
@@mlea79 oh that is a good point. I’ll have to look at projects as I love the stitch patterns. May also look at the love letter
I finished mine in January 😂
@@getyaknitsout ooooooppppps im a bit behind 😂
Only a little bit lol
@@getyaknitsout one sleeve to do
