    Love your inspirational sharing.
    Make a casing for bumper pillow…… draw string close one end.
    Then you can change out cover for season changes 🙃

      That’s a great idea! I’m thinking about using part of the bedsheet to make a casing 😃

    Gorgeous tulips, they totally set the mood. I love that Hydrangea Blue that you're using for the tank top, I wish Purl Soho had that shade in all their yarns. The zipper sweater is gorgeous! And I love the vest you're wearing too, that design is so interesting. I never really know where/when to wear a vest, but they look great in an outfit.

    Love your projects...I suggest that you consider making a quick muslin to cover the stuffing and insert in your crocheted lumbar pillow so that you can wash...

    Hi! I completely love your podcast so much. Your knitting, crochet and sewing is all so pretty and I love your colors! Your zipper sweater and the one you are making with the flowers are both amazing so I think I'm going to make a flower one - looks like it will be both comfy and joyful! Your voice is really soothing too and I always get so excited to see that you have a new podcast up! Hugs from Texas!!

    😂 same story over here. Fairly expensive linen sheets and my dog also scratched a hole in the fitted sheet, I’ve been saving them for some sewing projects but at the moment I’m still too bummed to bring them out. Good summer project though! Thanks so much, great episode ⭐️

      Oh gosh I’m glad I’m not alone but also sad your sheets got ruined! I always dream of having luxurious sheets but I know they’ll just get the big hole 😥 I hope you find a nice project to use yours!

    Thanks for a enjoyable time, watching you content. Crocheting the lumbar I thought you could make a inner tube and stuff that. The end I am sure you draw string or make it accessible some way to wash. Going into autumn down here enjoying the woolly knits again.

    Isnt testknitting the point to follow the i indtructions and the yarn in the pattern??🙉😎🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
    The west got stunning, i really wanna Try Biches buches yarn, how is it to Knit with , ? I love the scandinavian style ,i do Are Norwegian knitdesigner 🙏💞 do you have scandinavian family ! Have a great knitting week

    • @brookwillow
      @brookwillow  Рік тому +1

      Well I think knitwear designers actually like people to test different yarns because it’s unrealistic that every single person who buys the pattern will use the exact same yarn as the sample. It’s more about discovering if the pattern is clear and easy to follow! Most of the work is done by the tech editor beforehand.
      I absolutely love knitting with Biches es Buches! I would totally knit with it again 😃
      I don’t believe I have Scandinavian ancestors. Most of mine are Scottish/English/German/French Canadian!
