Thank you for this video, I absolutely love pattern reviews to get inspiration for new projects. I have watched your podcast from the start and also love seeing how you got much more confident, using techniques you learned in previous projects to modify later ones. Thank you for showing the pattern photos and details and leaving them on the screen for a long time, so I really have time to look at the info without having to open dozens of tabs on ravelry and combing through them after watching the video :)
Such a fun video to watch and it was very helpful to hear what you liked or disliked about the patterns/yarns. I'm currently knitting Sweater No. 23 for the second time with a few modifications and love the fit of that pattern. I've had the Daily Pullover on my list for some time and ready to add some fingering weight basics - you've given some good tips and I think I will forego the short rows on the back and maybe add them to the shoulder for a better fit. Looking back at all your patterns, I see that you love the classic pieces which is why I enjoy patterns by Petite Knit and My Favourite Things Knitwear - I'd rather have classic patterns and add variation by way of texture or color than a super intricate garment. Great podcast.
This video is great! I have knitted 2 daily pullovers, and after watching your video am inspired to start my third. The two I have are among my most worn sweaters. I live in a warmer climate so I need the lighter knits. ALL of your sweaters are fabulous!
As a person with broad shoulders that go a bit forward, I absolutely must add short rows in all of my V neck garments. I usually add short rows, if the designer omits them for whatever reason. So I’d definitely recommend assessing one’s figure before making a decision of adding/omitting short rows to elevate the back
Great video! It would be easier for me to come up with a list of my least loved sweaters. I try hard to regularly wear all of my very many loved sweaters and cardigans. My levitate wrap is definitely very high up on the favourites list (in a single strand Nutiden plus mohair) and I will for sure make another one. My most worn piece is probably my caridigan No.8 that is my throw on warm piece that is always on my chair and never makes it into my wardrobe. It's in Rideau Arcott from Long Way Homestead in the most beautiful undyed light grey yarn plus mohair. It so soft (for me anyway), cozy, warm and goes with pretty much any bottoms I own. I really hope to get my hands on Kinross 4ply one day!
@@thewoollyworker For me this is the perfect cozy oversized cardigan. Not a chic date night piece but otherwise goes with everything! I just finished my second one 😁
Really interesting to hear about your projects and what was good for daily life aswell as tg process of knitting them. I thought your knitting and finishing techniques looks so neat and polished too.
Very fun video! You definitely have me thinking about saddle shoulder sweaters now. I think my two favorites are the Louvre Sweater and the champagne cardigan. I love how I can just throw them on and they look great. Basic pieces are the easiest for me to wear in everyday life!
I’m in the process of making the eclair pullover currently in a plum color with flecks of teals, reds, blues and purples and I’m excited to be able to wear it this fall! It’s exciting to find a video of someone that already made it and to hear thoughts about it
Lovely episode!!! Love love love the Holly sweater. I don't have a top 9, but i would say from my sweaters I would pick the Lakes pullover (like you), the Farnham sweater (my most worn), the Harlow sweater and the Magda sweater.
Great video! I LOVE how articulate you are. Interesting and entertaining to listen to; time flies when you speak! Thanks for the review. You made some excellent points about yarn quality and pattern preferences. I am never left with an unanswered question because you are downright thorough! On video you glow in the red sweater....it's simply lovely on you!
I like the Holy sweater on you the best. The color is great as it compliments your skin tone, fit is best of all 9 sweaters. I do not like oversized clothing - my bias. I am 33" bust and 5' 1"
I love the Eclair and the Holly jumpers! I’ve already got plans (and yarn) for the Holly Sweater as my Christmas jumper, but I have added the Eclair to my favourites on Ravelry and hopefully I’ll be able to knit it later this year or next year ✨
Thanks for this GREAT podcast! I really enjoyed seeing all your favourite pullovers and how you ranked them. I particularly love your Lakes Pullover and the Syrah. I have been looking for a drop shoulder pullover in fingering weight and now thanks to you, I have the Syrah pattern. Happy knitting! 😊
Well done! You really have a lot of helpful and interesting things to say in your videos and are so easy to listen to. Thank you, and also I am loving Gilliatt as well! Happy Spring from British Columbia 🇨🇦
Really interesting! Thanks for the effort you put into making that. I haven’t favourite sweaters - I’m still yet to make “the one” I reckon - but I did discover last year that drop shoulder looks meh on me and that I much prefer alpaca fluff to mohair. You look great in all of yours but I especially like your V necks. Maybe it’s the promise of spring …
Loved seeing your top 9 sweaters of the year! The eclair pullover is so cute, I also do love a high split hem! It was helpful to hear about your thoughts on the isager ecosoft - I've been interested in using it and worried it wouldn't hold up super well but that's awesome that it's actually been wearing really nicely in your experience!
oh yes, im sure you'd love one ! And yes, very impressed with the eco soft ones considering how much I've worn them this year and how soft/tolerable they are for me day to day !
Great video, it's always so nice to see things work out well. I havn't made enough jumpers yet to come up with a list of my own, but hopefully by the end of the year. You have really inspired me to try and get my hands on some Kinross 4ply (it's not available here in Germany, so I will have to order from the UK). Also, the Holly Sweater is a NEED for next christmas, yours is just too pretty!
This was a great video! As usual your thoughtful interpretation of each make is delightful and helpful! My most worn sweater is my Bonnie cardigan by Orlane Sucche. Such a cute shape, simple but cute details. I love her patterns. A few other favorites are Cozy Classic light, Aphra, and After the Rain. The shoulder and sleeve and body shape on the Aphra are sooo good. You might check it out! ❤
All the sweaters look neat and well knitted I personally think that they look too oversized for your frame. There's too much fabric around your ribcage for almost all of them, except maybe the burgundy one. Have you considered knitting a smaller size or even better, adjusting the patterns to your own body measurements? You look like you have a feminine frame that would easily drown in too much fabric. I've seen the more fitted garments you've knit (like the ankler tee and Blouse no 1) and they suit your frame very well. If you would adjust the fit of more oversized garments (ex: knit less increases in the raglan, add waist decreases etc.) to match your body measurements. it would make a world of difference! Anyway, I really like seeing your makes and you've inspired me to consider the first v neck with the same yarn combination! Merci 🙂 Flourish and Prosper 🙂

Love this round up. Thank you for taking the time to pull all of these together. I love the Holly sweater and need to make one for sure!
Thank you so much! Enjoy it!

On your inspiration I’m doing the Holly sweater for Christmas. I’ve swapped out the cranberry for redcurrant . I hope I complete it on time.
Your sweaters are absolutely gorgeous, love the burgundy on you. Think 5hey are all lovely ❤
Thank you so much!
Vanissia that pastel purple is your color!!!! It's absolutely stunning on you and I hope you keep playing with muted cool pastels. Gorgeous!
Thank you, I will!! Definitely stands out compared to some of the other pieces !
This was so much fun !!

oh yes, i'd wear my champagne way more if it wasn't in mohair, so i can see myself making another, because it's so classic !
The Holly Sweater is my favourite out of the 9 chosen.
it was such a joy to knit and wear ! will be hard to top this year
I like the color that you chose for the Joan sweater. 😊 I like the color on you more so than the greys. ❤
Oh thank you!
Happy birthday dear Ruth. 🎉
I love Jo and Rachel too. Happy you can call them your friends now 👍💛
oop, i think you left this on the wrong video!

Really helpful round up episode as always. I also wanted to say, love your hair in this one, it looks super cute with the headband too😊
Oh thank you!

ohh yes, i like to vary things up with necklines ! definitely don't love turtlenecks on me. it's nice to slowly discover what is for us !
Loving all the sweaters, but especially thought the lavender stripes in the lyon sweater looked extra cute on you!
Oh thank you! i really love how spring-like it is !
Loved seeing your top 9 sweaters of the year! The eclair pullover is so cute, I also do love a high split hem!

Your ribbed necklines are STUNNING!
aw thanks !! it's not something i often think aha !
Great video, it's always so nice to see things work out well. I havn't made enough jumpers yet to come up with a list of my own, but hopefully by the end of the year.
You have really inspired me to try and get my hands on some Kinross 4ply (it's not available here in Germany, so I will have to order from the UK). Also, the Holly Sweater is a NEED for next christmas, yours is just too pretty!
