    Samplers do show your talent as a knitter, spinner, colorist. Wishing you continued success in your design process and I look forward to seeing more of your beautiful work.

    Enjoyed watching your podcast whilst enjoying my breakfast. 🙃
    Your shawl is beautiful! The diamond section is my favourite. 💗
    Love what you did with your cardigan to make it fit around your shoulder/arm better. I do this when sewing clothes too, as my spine is curved so regular patterns don't fit perfectly and I alter them to fit better.
    The Stephen West shawl, I'd rip out and enjoy the yarn myself. If you were nearly done and were not enjoying it, I'd finish and give it away but you're only at the beginning.
    LOVE your hair and the story behind it. Well done to your son, too.
    Yay for progress with your arm (though I sympathise with chronic pain, which I also deal with).
    Looking forward to your father joining in with an episode one day. He is clearly very special to you!

      Oh so cozy with a long breakfast😍. I'm leaning towards ripping out the twist and turn shawl, just like you say, I haven't made it that far so that yarn may end up in another projec🤗🤗t.
      Ohh so glad you like my shawl. Now I just have to have the courage to release the pattern😅. It's always fun when you can change things to suit yourself.
      Yes, chronic pain is no fun, and even when you have to explain to some 100 times why you can't do everything on certain days. I suffer and sympathize with you too❤.
      I love my son's ideas of being able to stand up for what he thinks is important🥰.

    Wonderful episode this week! I am working on the last clue of the MKAL while watching on my day off. If you not happy with your MKAL just rip it back and use the yarn for a new project 😊 I will pray for you and your recovery 🙏

    Such a wonderful episode, Emilia, with lovely finished knitting projects. Your own pattern for the shawl is especially lovely and cozy. I like your purple statement hair! Good for you and your family, and particularly your son. I like the wider format for the video ... I used to see the black sides to a smaller picture, exactly the same as your father saw. How weird that some would see it that way and other see a full screen! Take care, Alex

      Thank you very much Alex❤. It was so much fun making both the yarn and the pattern for the shawl special. So much fun playing with textures😀.
      A couple of years my son took it even further and had pink hockey equipment. But now it's team colors that apply, unfortunately. So proud of him and his friends who do this every year. and the boy who was bullied is today a very close friend of my son and I see him often💞.
      Funny that the tips my dad came up with have worked well so everyone has full screen now. But that it can be so different from different devices😅.
      Hope all is well with you Alex❤?

    Thank-you for keeping me company Emilia 🥰 Your shawl turned out beautifully and your Waterlilies looks gorgeous on you. Your mods were genius to make the cardigan fit you the way you wanted it to 🤗 I'd say you're doing a fantastic job raising your son as clearly he is kind and empathetic, just like you 💕 Here in Canada we have a day devoted to anti-bullying called Pink Shirt Day which has similar roots to the story your son's classmate lived through. I am in awe each day at the overall acceptance and kindness I see exhibited in my daughter's class and feel like things have changed so much (for the better) since I was in school. It really does give me hope that the future will be brighter for everyone 😊 Your father sounds like a wonderful man and I am looking forward to "meeting" him on your podcast. His advice was certainly helpful regarding filming as your video now fills my screen. I'm not sure if you were using your phone before, but if so, if you film with your phone sideways (16:9) it will also work. Also, I use PowerDirector for my editing so if you have any questions, I'm happy to try to help 🤗Fantastic news about your arm and I hope things continue to improve 💕

      Oh thank you Nikki❤. It's so much fun to have someone to share and bounce ideas off of and get inspiration from😻.
      I wished we also had an anit-bullying day at school here in Sweden. A lot has absolutely changed since I went to school and I'm happy about that🙂. I have hope for our children's generation💞.
      My father he is quite good to have💖🤣. But I never would have believed that there was such a big difference between looking at my computer and then looking at his computer😅.
      Ohh, good to know that we use the same program, I will certainly come up with a series of questions😁.
      Hope to see you on Thursday🥰

    Love your shawl. It would be so warm and cuddly. Discovered your podcast through Susan of Wild Cottage knitting. I live in New Zealand and love all fibre and textile related crafts. Enjoyed watching your podcast.

    Hi again, from north of Toronto! As you have now discovered the patterns from the owner of EweKnit, I thought I’d give you a tip…About every couple of months (maybe even more frequently), their newsletter subscribers are offered a FREE purchase of a particular pattern. So, if you don’t already subscribe, just go to the bottom of any page on their site and fill in the form. The purchase is not through Ravelry, so I just store the PDFs elsewhere. (BTW, in case you were wondering, the store is pronounced “you knit”. The English word “ewe” is pronounced like “you” and means a female sheep. Your English is amazing, and so are you!)

      Haha! I’ve been watching your channel in reverse chronological order. At this very moment, I’m watching episode 11, and you mentioned that you subscribe to EweKnit’s newsletter! I made Claudia’s Fox Baby Yoke Sweater for my 3 year old granddaughter. I paid for that pattern…and then I paid AGAIN in headaches. Why? Some of the yoke rounds have 3 colours. I HATE handling more than 2 colours. But the pattern itself is just fine. And my granddaughter is sooooo knit worthy. She always chooses to wear what I make her.
