    I am very glad you are back! It's nice to see one youtuber with the same build and the same taste as mine, and also one who also lives in the South Hemisphere. Your videos always inspire me!

      Thank you so much, that means a lot! It's really great when you come across someone who shares a similar taste in design and style - especially when they live in the same climate 🌏🧶

      That's so kind of you to say, thank you! 💖 I also enjoy finding other knitters who have a similar taste in knitwear to me - feminine, tailored and simple 🥰

    Lively knits. For the corset, you could try sewing some poppers between the buttons to take up the strain.

    Knitting for Olive merino is oeko-tex certified which means it is superwash treated 😊I agree it behaves differently to other superwash yarns, and might have a diluted coating. I wish there was some standardisation of disclosure including the percentage of resin used in the treatment! great podcast as usual, thanks for all the chatty info 🤎

    • @acornknits
      @acornknits  Рік тому

      Oh really? I didn't know that oeko-tex certified yarns were all superwash treated - I thought it the certification could also just relate to the dyes that were used for natural, non-superwash yarns. That's good to know 😊 The Knitting for Olive merino is such a delight to use and feels so natural in comparison to some of the squeaky, heavily coated superwash yarns.

    Woohoo a Sydney knitting podcast! I am from Sydney too!! I have been trying to make the Honey Clutch - stalled a bit ...maybe one day.

    • @acornknits
      @acornknits  Рік тому +1

      Wooo!! 🦘🙌 You definitely should - and you can TOTALLY do it! The hardest part is getting started and wrapping your head around the honeycomb brioche. But once it *clicks*, it's so much fun and absolutely flys by!

      Thank you!!! 💞 ohhh yes, you definitely should! It's such a great pattern, really easy to follow and the finished object is stunning. I'm tempted to try it in a cotton/silk yarn for summer...

    Nice to see a new podcast from you. Your projects look beautiful - especially the Destination Unknown. The mosaic knitting really works well with the gradient. Someone will definitely appreciate that lovely shawl. :)

    • @acornknits
      @acornknits  Рік тому

      Thanks for stopping by 💐🤗 The Destination Unknown was such a fun pattern and I agree, I think the gradient yarn worked really well with the pattern. I'm tempted to do another but with a dark navy as the main and a speckled white as the contrast colour...

    For your Pictus socks: could you duplicate stitch or darn in some 100% nylon in the heel to give more strength/wearability. I live in 🇨🇦 and its easy to find this kind of nylon made just for this purpose. Thanks for the lovely podcast.

    • @acornknits
      @acornknits  Рік тому

      That's a great idea, thank you for suggesting it! I think that's such a clever way to add extra durability to a finished pair of socks 🧦
