    Another wonderful episode! Love seeing everything you’re working on. I’m currently working on socks for my little one and my sister. In a sick mood at the moment.

    Hi Gabriella. That's going to be the cutest scarf. I bought these cute mushroom stich markers from paper crane yarns. I have them on a pair of socks. Love them. It's like jewelry for your knitting. The sock recipient is going to feel your energy and feel better. Beautiful lesson for your daughter

    Stephanie Dosen was one of my first favorite designers as well. I adore patterns for anything fairytale-esque, whimsical and woodland. One day I hope to purchase a collection of her patterns as well. I also understand your feeling about the yarn advent calendars. I have not had one before and I know that when I do get one, it will be precious and I will savor the surprise each day as I open one.
    My current projects are a shawl and fixing the collar and sleeve length of a sweater that I made so I will wear it more often.

      I am so glad we share the sentiment on Advent calendars~ I can't wait for that day for you, it really is so special (and made all the more special with anticipation!). I am also so inspired by your fixing the collar and selves on your sweater~ what a worthwhile and wonderful project!

    Thank you so much for a cosy episode! The fox Stola is sooo cute! 😍
    I also got a yarn Advent from a knitting friend! I think I will make cute ornaments for our tree with those yarns! 😊
    Right now I’m knitting on unicorn mittens for my little girls! 😅

    Dear Gabriella, I was so happy to see that you uploaded a new episode😊🥰 it‘s always such a joy to catch up with you. I am really looking forward to see the little polar fox stole you are knitting ot Esmeralda, I am sure it will be the cutest thing and she will adore it😃 I just cast on a Fluffy (the three-headed dog from Harry Potter) which will be a Christmas gift for my nephew. He really wants to have one, he even started to learn how to knit and crochet, so he could one day maybe make one himself. It‘s so lovely when the small ones appreciate what we make for them!😊
    What a nice gift, this surprise advent calendar! I am sure you will enjoy it every single day in December. Luckily it‘s not long until then anymore. I wish you a nice rest of November and I am curious what you are going to knit in December😊
    Ps.: hihi, my boyfriend was drinking the EXACT same tea as you, while I was watching the podcast, and I was concidering it myself but then decided to have a different one 😂

    • @MerryweatherKnitting
      @MerryweatherKnitting  11 місяців тому +1

      😍 I just love that you cast on a Fluffy for your nephew!! I am sure it's going to mean all the more to him because he is a new knitter himself (and how cool is that!?) Aren't stuffed animal type knits just such fun?? And they really do make the best gifts 🥰 I'm amazed that you were *about* to drink the same tea, and that your boyfriend was!! It's one of my very favorites at the moment and I hadn't tried anything like it before with the cacao ✨ I'm wishing you a wonderful rest of our November as well, lovley~ with all of the cozy late autumn knitting joys!! ❤❤❤

      @@MerryweatherKnitting I must say, I am not the biggest fan of the knitting experience when it comes to stuffed animals, but since I know, that it is for my nephew and he will love it, it‘s still a joy to make them 😊 I am sure, he will very much appreciate it and he is already looking forward to the next time we crochet together, which is so so sweet 🥰 it probably still takes some years before you can knit with your girls, but I am sure, they will love it as much as you do🧡🧶
      We really like this tea too😃 it tastes a tiny bit like cacao bean tea, which is really good.
      I wish you a great start into the new week!

      Thank you so much!! ❤❤ A frehand scrappy shirt sounds like such a fun project 😍 I've been eyeing so many scrappy projects lately and a shirt is a fantastic idea 🦋

    Hi Gabriella. I make knitted dolls and many other things. The book of knitted toys looks interesting. You might like to check out 'Jean Greenhowe' if your daughters lead you in the direction of knitted dolls. 😉 My mother knitted dolls from the 'Scarecrow collection' for some of the family many years ago. Enjoy opening your advent calendar. ☺️

    • @MerryweatherKnitting
      @MerryweatherKnitting  11 місяців тому +1

      Thank you so much for the suggestion! I am now looking through Jean Greenhowe's designs, absolutely enchanted!! They are so lovely and sweet, I am definitely going to put some of her books on my wishlist. 💕 The scarecrow book looks particularly adorable, I am sure the recipients of those dolls just adored them! 💖

    Hi! Hope you are well! I am planning to knit for Christmas the pattern Christopher bunny by Susan B Anderson for my two little twin girls grandchildren who are three years old … I plan to knit it in super wash yarn so they can bring it with them everywhere and washable !

    • @MerryweatherKnitting
      @MerryweatherKnitting  11 місяців тому +1

      Thank you dear Hélène! What a lovely pattern and fantastic gift for three year old girls 😍 How wonderful to have twins!! I am sure they are just going to adore it especially with all of the love in your knitting 🥰

    I'm excited to see how your fox stoll works up. The photos look adorable!🙂 I'm currently finishing up on a test knit pullover vest. It's in a vibrant pumpkin color shade. I look forward to wearing it soon. 🙂

    • @MerryweatherKnitting
      @MerryweatherKnitting  11 місяців тому +1

      Thank you!! A pumpkin colored vest sounds absolutely dreamy 😍 and vests are just the best in these months. 😌 enjoy every stitch, I find test knits to be so magical in a way~ getting to be among the first to knit a new design 🦋🤍🦋

    Lovely as always. I remember the Tiny Owl Knits book from several years back. Thank you for reminding me about that designer and the woodland patterns. What is the beautiful green sweater you are wearing in this episode. I saw it on your website but couldn't find the name. It is beautiful. Yes, hair conditioner and white vinegar can help soften up the woolies

    • @MerryweatherKnitting
      @MerryweatherKnitting  11 місяців тому

      Thank you so much for your kindness!! And tip on the conditioner and vinegar~ I am definitely going to try vinegar as well. The sweater is the Elizabeth I from the Tudor Rose book by Alice Starmore. It was an absolute joy to knit!

    While tuning in I wove the ends into and began blocking my Ballerina Wrap Top (a Two of Wands pattern). I'm very excited to share in your experience of advent-opening! I would love to get one next year and perhaps make the Anthology Throw by Helen Stewart (I get so inspired scrolling through the projects!) I would prefer an advent that is non-superwash, but that seems a little harder to come across. Do you think superwash yarn is more popular in America, or do Germans/Europeans use a lot of superwash too? Warm regards from chilly Washington state! - Era

    • @MerryweatherKnitting
      @MerryweatherKnitting  11 місяців тому

      That is such a good question Era, and I had to think about it for a moment. I think that Germans in general certainly use a lot of Superwash too (most standard yarn found in any local yarn store here is Superwash, unfortunately) but I think that Europeans overall do use more non-super wash rustic yarn. At least based on companies I know based all over Europe. I think a non Superwash advent wold be fantastic. How wonderful that you knit the Ballerina Wrap Top!! That is such a gorgeous pattern 😍
