    Friends! I'm sorry if the music starting at the reveal now is jarringly loud... I got had to change the music because someone claimed it as theirs. My appeal was rejected, and I feel worried for any implications not changing the music might have for my channel, so I swapped the music, but I couldn't change the volume in UA-cam Studio. So, apologies if anyone got spooked by the volume change.

      Heads up, the link to the pattern in your description is broken or inactive.

    From the USA with the red fawn Akita Inu, Bear. I was just hoping to see you make a scarf or hat but gloves! You hit it out of the park. I'll be making a scarf, maybe one with pockets too put my hands in.

    Those gloves look nice and warm, ideal for these temperatures! I am thinking of knitting some mittens, but making them really big and felting them, so they are even warmer.

    You definitely have grandma energy but that's 100% a compliment. Chaos goblin grandma.
    The gloves are really nice!! And it's kind of a neat way to use the fur you'd end up collecting anyway.
    I love the look of items knitted on tiny needles but my shaky hands could never. So I'll enjoy it through you.
    Also please give your puppy love from us. 💗

    Hi Jente, I hope you're all OK xx ❣️
    I love your Gloves, they look so warm and comfy. I'm with you on having to refer to other pages within the pattern, it can be annoying.
    I hope it is warmer there than the part of England that I live in, we've had snow and temperatures well below freezing for well over a week. 🎑☃️
    Roll on summer.

    I had two Great Pyrenees who passed summer 2022 at 11 yrs old, littermates, and I miss them so much. But I saved their undercoats when they were young from brushing them out. I plan to spin it up and I like your idea of gloves. Was going to blend with some sheeps wool but I like the idea of just being able to 'feel' them better if I leave the wool out. Do your gloves 'feel' like your pup?

    • @MijnWolden
      @MijnWolden  2 роки тому +2

      I'm not sure I would say it feels exactly like our dog, but the gloves were in my pocket today when I was out for my day job and I found myself stroking or petting the gloves. I once tried to spin her fur pure and made a hat out of it and that was very pup-like. But that yarn wasn't very sturdy and gave way After a while, that's mainly why I blended it with wool now

    • @leahgroess5361
      @leahgroess5361 2 роки тому +1

      Maybe spin enough to knit a little swatch to just have as your "petting square". If it's not a garment it won't have as much repeated stretching and rubbing to cause the yarn to wear out. Blending with wool also lets your fur go much farther in terms of how much you need, so you'd be able to knit something bigger, or more items if it was blended.
