    I was thinking about the Cloud Sweater. Yours just convinced me to add it to my queue. I'm on my second pair of After Midnight Mitts by Thea Colman. They're kind of addictive. Thanks for turning me on to her!

    Shawl - I’ve been watching your podcast since the first few episodes and you ladies never disappoint. Your friendship and laughter is contagious. Are you friends because of knitting or knit together because you were friends. Diane from Boston

    I always enjoy watching you ladies--you are so real and so fun!! I agree with Laura that knitters need a posse! I have a group I knit with most weeks--we met at a LYS that closed during Covid, so we are grateful to have each other!! Laura, I LOVE your Tuku sweater--gorgeous!! I can't wait to see what you have to show next time!

    Laura, I am in love with your Lenu sweater. I think it looks great on you and the color is very nice. Even though you have doubts. Grey goes with everything. Can you please share the two colors you used. I greatly appreciate it. Your podcast is the BEST and always look forward to it. 😘

    Another lovely podcast ladies. Laura-I found your yarn in someone stash on Ravelry-even same dye lot. Left a previous comment but I don't see it, also sent a message via Insta. Hope you get what you need.

    I finally caught up to date w/ your podcasts ...... I've been bingeing from your #1 for the past 3 weeks. Don't know what took me so long to "discover" your podcasts (except that I don't often Instagram), 'cuz the Ready Needles fellows certainly mention you, but often by first names. I soooo envy your camaraderie and opportunities to actually see and feel the yarn. I'm a Nutmegger, born (87 yrs ago) and raised (UConn grad) and still have family in CT. My Swedish g'mother taught me to knit combo continental at age 6-7, but in those days, it didn't have a name except "wrong" or "backwards" (my Mom knit English because of WW2 sentiments ) so I was mostly self-taught after Grandma gave me the basics...... til the miracle of the internet. Imagine my surprise to find that the style not only had a name, but people wanted to knit that way!!! After 30 yrs of dial-up and DSL (we live rurally .... no cable and cell service is finally giving us 2 bars at the house so we don't hafta long distance down at the cattle guard 2 mi down the road any more), we got StarLink 2 months ago (ah, the joy of no buffering!). Your podcasts are charming, informative, and lethal to the purse (somewhat restrained because computer representation can be kind of iffy).. We've a newly started knitting group at the nearest library branch and I'm hoping there'll be enough interest to get to the June Black Sheep Gathering in Eugene (like your CT Sheep Festival) this year. Thanx much for providing some knitting "family" for us out-lyers.

    Thank you for another great podcast, ladies, so inspiring! Laura, you found the way to wear your gray knits : this pop of color with your pink shawl is just the perfect way to go! So just knit yourself a few small shawls in different vivid colors that suits you and you are all set! 😉

    maybe Laura can do a small version of all the hedgehogs shawl to wear with her grey sweater :) And Kate, I am addicted to granny squares, we can Granny together. Can't wait to see Campbell in that sweater, Kim! Great episode posse :)

  • @joanmather7218
    @joanmather7218 11 місяців тому

    Nice baby sweaters and buttons...I'm knitting a few jacket type. Choosing the buttons was the funnest part. Laura, if you have to finish the sweater with a different yarn I'd go a bit of a darker gray, not black. Also doing the sleeve cuffs with the darker gray would make it look more purposeful.

    I love watching the 3 of you. Inspiration and fun! I have a lot of knitting goals but I confess to being a shawl 'aholic'. I am always cold in A/C and they are great to have when it's 100 degrees outside but 60 in a restaurant! Laura, I think you should embrace the color block idea but consider the idea of making the bottom of the sweater lighter than the rest and allowing the Rico yarn to stand out more in that section.

Laura…inasmuch now dreaming of all things green-lol.thanks for the shout out. Happy Crafting❤

Laura, the way you have styled that shawl is great, and looks so good in that color on you! Those that have a Ravelry page would remember what the pattern is, lol.

    As soon as I saw Thea Colman's Goldwyn Folly, I knew I had to make it. I love everything about it, including the styling. And it just had some cables...I've done cables before, but they are not my favorite! So when I heard about the knit along, I cast it on.....I'm about halfway done now...

    Hello ladies! I enjoyed your discussion about life before Ravelry. I remember thinking that, if I didn’t subscribe to Interweave magazine, I wouldn’t know anything about new patterns. Thanks, Kim, for the baby knits inspiration! I am expecting my first grandchild any day now and love getting new pattern ideas! Sea Monkey hat on the needles!

I find it a really warm one, great for really cold days (you’ll want sleeves), perfect for Vermont! Love everyone’s knits. Laura your recent FO is GORGEOUS! The motif on the front is so pretty. Kate - you have me inspired to knit some lovely textured hats. Thea Coleman is sooo talented! Thanks again!!!

    @marybarker4646 11 місяців тому

    Laura, when I feel a little washed out from the color of a garment I put on a gold necklace that has a little bit of presence to it, and maybe a simple strand of pearls with it. That breaks up the color from your face and neck to the garment and adds a little something something, Just a thought… for when you might not want the warmth of a shawl or a scarf around your neck.

    Lovely as always 🥰 Laura I use my phone like it’s my brain… your languishing wips maybe put them into your phone in the calendar with an alert to go off in a months time so that reminds you, if you’re not ready to think about it again just move the date forward. With things I need to do, but I don’t want to do, I set an alert on my day and also the day before. When it goes off the day before it gives me a warning but in 24 hours I need to pull my finger out 🤭😂 I like to be organised, especially with the “ugh” things in life. I also though colour block the bottom of your yarn chicken loss sweater. Thanks for sharing, happy knitting 💕
