That Tolsta Tee you made is so upbeat ! Thank you for making this whole series of videos, where we can follow your long projects as they progress, over 2 or 3 sessions. It is fascinating. Thank you !
My friend is right: your channel is very special ! I enjoy the atmosphere here: knitting is a realistic, happy, rewarding activity. I am now recrankled !! Thank you !! 🌳🌳🦉🌳🌳
Now realizing that your Lily tank top is made of bamboo yarn ! I am discovering that fiber. Thank you for talking about how it is, that it enlarges after blocking, etc. Very interesting.
Watched from Canada Winterland ! I am amazed I found an Australian knitting podcast. You are bringing an all new mood to knitting, from your hot climate. I love it ! Your Saltwater Slip Dress is beautiful. You wear it very well ! I think there is a lot of sheep in Australia. That may help supplying yarn, I hope. Beautiful video !
Something very nice, you did with that yarn kit. I did not know such kits existed. The linen stitch is really cool. It is a great choice of stitch for accessories.
I agree with Eleonore Basinger, that knitting comes with so much happiness. This is hard to explain to a non-knitter. In passing, I like to knit the linen stitch. It takes longer, but the fabric is different, and I find it so rewarding ! Very very enjoyable channel, Emily !
Knitting while watching your nice podcast. A surprise happened in my knitting world : I received lavender yarn. I thought I was ordering light gray. It looked like it as displayed online. But when I received it: lavender. It is a color I never use, never wear, and don't liked. I decided to make long socks for snow shoeing, with a plum motif. It is complex color work but very enjoyable, and it is turning out beautiful ! My family agrees. I am so impressed. We should never say 'never'. That yarn is from Briggs & Little, Canada, in the Regal caliber ( DK ). They call that color " Fundy Fog ". There is a Bay of Fundy in Canada. The dye on the yarn is something I have never seen before : lilac, with subtle pink dots and subtle pale blue dots. The effect is beautiful.
Your version of the Tolsta Tee is such a success !! 🗨🗨 I am very encouraged, that you say it is a very well written and accessible pattern : I am very tempted ! Cheers !
You don't let us down, Emily, in this program ! I wish I could make the Tolsta Tee as good as yours. Here in Canada, I would not have the steaming hot weather that you have in your country, and that Tolsta would get a lot of wear. Excellent video.
I used to wonder 'what does it change' that I write a comment. You are already receiving compliments. But I think more people should tell you they like your videos. Your olive green Lily tank top is charming, and would be really useful to me, on very hot days here in Italy. I like the design with straps that one can tie while adjusting the depth of the decollete. Brilliant.
Your Lily Tank Top is very cool, perfect for a very hot day. I am also very fond of the colour. All your makes are very high quality and well finished. And congratulations on the Salt Flowery slip dress!
You certainly don't disappoint, Emily ! Thank your for the happy vibes of your programs. You spread serenity and provide a lot of inspiration. 🧧🎪🧧 I really like your Salt Water Slip Dress. Have a great week !
Watched while traveling on a long train itinerary, on a rainy day. Your program made all the difference between boredom, and a blissful time. There is peaceful atmosphere and a wealth of excellent knitting ideas, in your videos. You also present very well. I decided to try the bamboo yarn you are presenting ! 🪡🚆🚆🚆🪡
I am really inspired by your cushion cover project ! Seems simple, but a pillow cover is an excellent way to have a nice color work piece done, if one doesn't want to wear a design that strikes the eye too much. I have a beautiful squirrel color work chart, but I could not figure out on what garment to use it. Pillow cover would solve my issue, and be useful. Thank you !
Your Tolsta is sooo nice ! I agree with Pierette St-Denis: Here in Canada, I don't have your steaming hot climate situation, and that heavy cotton garment would get plenty of use ! Your channel is so pleasant to watch. 🐶🐶🐶
You are very kind to your viewers, explaining so well ! I love your Lily Tank Top and I want to make it. It is great for hot days, and will not take too long to make !
I like this video. It presents knitting as a realistic, no non-sense endeavour, that any person can do, with patience, curiosity and some support at the beginning. It can become a passion !
This is a really good video. Beautiful knitting, modelling and advice. Special thanks for showing your linen stitch and your Saltwater Slip Dress. Magical. But everything is really nice !
Everything very nice. The fabric you obtained with the green yarn ( Lily Tank Top in green ) is fabulous. I am discovering how nice bamboo yarn can be. Wow !
As a knitter, you are a rock star ! You take the time to prepare your projects, and then your work is well organized, with excellent results. Long live ! ! 🎂🎂🎂
I really enjoy the way you present your work. It is a plus that you very your designers: your projects don't have all the same creators. I had a wonderful time watching.
I like the work created by the linen stitch. It is peaceful, slow work, but good psychotherapy when I need to change gear from a hectic day. It leads to a very elegant knitted fabric.
You infused me with lots of energy and positivity, with your podcast ! I am an old days knitter, from before I got married. I have now decided to take it on again. Your Sophie Scarf will be my first project. Thank you ! 🧣🧣🧣🧣🧣
I agree with Ines, who says your enthusiasm is contagious ! ! Ah ! Ah ! And it is so refreshing to see that there is so robust a next generation in knitting ! 💚💚💚💚
Genevria Bossone sent me to see your channel, and I really like it ! My heart goes for the Lily Tank Top that you made. Thank you for showcasting many summer designs 🤽♀
Knitting while watching one of your programs is the reward when I come back from working. I work night shift, it is busy and sometimes difficult. I need half an hour of relaxation, change of beat, in my nice private spot, before I eat and go to sleep. Your podcast does it very well. I have a Tolsta Tee on the needles. Thank you for working hard on your series.
I really enjoy your work, Emily. Both the way you think of your projects, the way you craft them, and then the way you put your video together. You present very well. I wish you a brilliant future.
Yes, I concur, your enthusiasm is indeed contagious ! 🤗🤗🤗 The Tolsta Tee is a success : good for work and also weekend. You are a sweet little fairy !! 🧚🧚🧚
I'm another one who likes the linen stitch. I also am very fond of your Tolsta Tee. I like everything about it. Thank you for your hard work and for inspiring me to knit with confidence.
Thank you for teaching me the characteristics of bamboo yarn. I took note that it stretches quite a bit. Good to know. There is so much to learn, in the world of wool and knitting !!! 🏁🏁🏁
Thank you for mentioning the characteristics of the bamboo yarn. It is very important to be aware that bamboo 'enlarges', after a while.🎍🎍🎍🎍 I like the way you are prepared, methodical, and "to - the - point", while presenting your projects. Excellent. 🎍🎍🎍🎍
This video is helping me "change the air" after a arduous day at work. Back home, your video came in my feeds, and now I have more peace of mind, dreaming of the next pair of socks I am about to cast on. 🐖🐖🐖 This hobby comes with so much happiness !! Take care.🐖🐖🐖
Moonstruck by your Tolsta Tee ! All good ! All good ! I am aware it is very popular, and I have stayed away from it for that reason: I am always contrarian to follow the crowd. But in this case, I may be conquered !
I also enjoy the linen stitch. I find it meditative. Once I have put myself in the right mindset, that this knit work will be slow and that I have to take it as a relaxing thing, that " will be done when it is done", I really enjoy it. 🐟🐟🐟 It makes a thicker fabric than usual knitting, and it is so rewarding to see the progress of this lovely stitch, the length of what I am making increasing. It is very rewarding, very zen. I once make a long skirt all in linen stitch.
Cheering for the Tolsta Tee ! 🌋🌋 There's something about the linen stitch that talks to me. And it is not only about the look: it also generates a thicker fabric. I like it. 🌋🌋 Overall, a really good session here.
Hi ! .. Watching from County Limerick, Ireland. I agree with what you say, about the linen stitch. I have used it before. Progress is slow, using linen stitch, but we obtain a thicker, cushy fabric. If used on the right project, it is lovely. 🦏🦏 The knitter also need to be in a patient, zen mind set. But it is very rewarding to see the progress, that original and elegant fabric. 🦏🦏
Also watched while travelling, and it made a great time for me, while knitting. 🫑🫑🫑 I am really drawn towards making the Tolsta Tee as same as possible to the way you did it. It looks so good. I live in a colder climate than you, so I will wear it for sure. I watched your other videos before, and I know the wearability issue you had with it, because of your hot climate. But where I live is different. Your t-shirt looks so great. 🫑🫑 Thank you for the inspiration.
Liked and subscribed ! You offer a very authentic and refreshing vibe to the knitting world. I like your realistic projects, and especially the way you talk about your work. You are passionate and very relatable.
Your cushion cover project, in linen stitch, is giving me an idea : I will make myself a nice pouch to keep my small knitting accessories neatly together ( like the small cisors, stitch markers, measuring tape, ect ).
A co-passenger on a train showed me your podcasts, and it made my day. Very interesting atmosphere and projects. I used to knit only socks, but now I will try the Lilly Tank Top, thanks to your presentation. Thank you ! 🐕🦺🐕🦺🐕🦺
Hi Emily. You touch the subject of superwash versus non-superwash yarn. Please would you mind giving more explanations, for starters, about the difference between the two ? What is the manufacturer aiming at, by making superwash yarn ? 🪆🪆 And what is it that the factory does to the yarn, to make it superwash ? 🪆🪆 Thank you very much.
There are lots of great resources on UA-cam on this topic! Superwash yarn is a chemical treatment to smooth out the wool fibres. It can be considered less sustainable because of the processing and waste and also changes the physical properties of the yarn. This is why some knitters prefer non-superwash 😊
Very motivating video, Emily. 🪴🪴 I have a question: regarding the linen stitch, do you believe the fabric reacts the same, in the long term, to repeated wear and washing ? Or is the thicker knitted fabric less susceptible to stretch ? Have you ever knitted a garment in linen stitch ? 🪴🪴 Thank you very much ! ! 🪴🪴
That’s a good question! I’m not too sure I think you’re right that being a thicker fabric it would stretch less, but I suppose it depends on the fibre and density of the fabric
We don't knit the same things, but for some reason, I get a lot of motivation in your sessions. It must be your enthusiasm and genuine, pure commitment to knitting. 🥾🏕⛰🥾
This recording was a good travel companion, today. 🚏🚏🚏It was very nice to watch during the long stop over, at the central train station. I sat on a bench with my knitting and Pepper Knits on my tablet. 🛤🛤🛤 It was perfect ! ! 🛤🛤
The Tolsta striped t-shirt you made is a winner. 🛤🛤🛤 I watched this episode on my phone while travelling on the train, and it made the ride so pleasant ! Thank you.🛤🛤🛤
