Omg you are so right about Killing Eve! That is the best show! Also you got so much done this year - so impressive! Can’t wait to keep watching all your updates and stash tales. I usually don’t make any resolutions but I really want to use stash this year and am considering keeping track… kinda lol. Happy New Year!
Love all your makes! I should do a blanket to use up some minis, but I've got so much on the needles now! Your afghan look so cozy! I'm going to try tracking grams in and out. Im hoping I use more than I buy. I am trying Yarnable this year. The January colorway is divine! I'm also doing Desert Panda subscription. Her theme this year is National Parks.
Love all the WIPs! I really like the socks for your mom too! All our Christmas decor is down too but we still have the two trees up as I love the lights at night !
Thank you so much for the tip on Knomad yarn. I got the same thing and I'm going to be using it with one of my Advent sets to knit the Cozy Comfort Throw, too. I'm also planning to get more of their bare yarns for future projects.
This year is definitely going to be a no buy year for anything knitting or crochet related - no yarn, paid for patterns, needles, hooks, bags or progress keepers. in the past I have said Thais, but in the last 4 months, my carer has helped me to sort out all my stuff (I am disabled) and now I know what I have got, the thought of getting more makes me feel ill. So, I am actually looking forward to it. I have also started a crafting journal, to keep photos and details and stats of how much I use per project. Jinny - UK
Love your episodes so much :) my goals right now are to do a pair of socks for my hubby every month, one pair of mittens a month and work on things for my Sunday school class and family
Love your Cozy Comfort Throw! Now I want to start one lol. I started a knot ball of just Ruby and Roses scraps. Not sure what it will become yet. Killing Eve is so good!
As I'm watching the episode, I'm on the last half inch of my Garter Marler (hurray!!). I'm going to wash/block it before doing the hem and cuffs because I'm not sure how much this will grow. This has been a project to just work on once in a while, but now that the end is near I don't want to put it down 😊❤
Hi Lisa! Love the socks that you've started. You have inspired me to track my yarn and skeins. I do have a lot of skeins that were not particularly useful for socks, but I would love to knit more from stash. I can highly recommend the Expanse, but listen to the book first. The series are pretty close to the book, but you would enjoy it way more.
I think i insomnia shopped and somehow bought two dragon hoard yarns advents. Luckily they coordinate so i have been knitting the cozy comfort throw with that!
I wish I were as organized as you! I might keep track of stats for about a month, maybe two, then it dies. I always get in the mindset of, "I'll write it down after I {random unrelated activity}" and of course, then I forget. My goal is to make at least 50 "Baa Humbug" Christmas ornaments to give away next year. I was in this year's production of A Christmas Carol at the Tulsa PAC. It was their 48th year and my first experience of it. I had so much fun, and I knit the ornament for the Ornament exchange. Next year, I'd love to have an ornament for all the cast and crew.
❤❤good morning Lisa 🎉 Such a snowy morning ,,,, Look forward to stash tales,,,, You have knit a pile!!!! Love the socks with the stripes from ruby and roses,,,🎉🎉 Love the cozy comfort blanket,,,,, We loved :killing eve:: Elaine❤☃️❄️ Have a good week,,,,
I got my freckled whimsy yarn too. It’s my first month for the subscription and wow, you’re right, it’s a stunner! Halt all of your knitting and cast it on! I’m going to! Race ya!!! 😂 ❤ 🧦
I just look at my Ravelry STATS. I struggle with math, and numbers. Knitting is probably helping me understand math a little bit more. since it's in front of me instead of coming from a math book.
I made a video and put it on my UA-cam channel about my plans. I’m doing 30 minutes of knitting on my memory blanket each day, I’m going to finish it this year.
I was thinking you could just get some LED fairy lights for your coziness. My goal is to not buy any yarn other than 3 events I’ve already decided. I have too much yarn and fiber and I need to work it down.
Yarn distribution to mail seems kinda odd to me at tmes. You said your January freckled whimsy monthly club subscription arrived on January 2nd, mine arrived on December 24th. That's 9 days apart and you live in Michigan and I live in Indiana. Just as well we have ours. I am on the heel flap of the 2nd sock now. Again, being my 1st freckled whimsy and watching you knit all those stripes for years I just felt compelled to join the monthly club. Never knitted stripe socks before and I like it very much. All my sock yarn are ruby and roses, hedgehog fibers, malibrigo, opal, and many others of the like. Once a month for me is fine with freckled whimsy. I can always tell how extremely enthusiastic you are with those stripes. Feeling kinda indifferent with the return of Felici there L? You bought 2 color ways, "Lisa" and something else. I really think that returning to any kind of books to reread is a very special thing to do. My genre is classical books from the 19th century. Mostly mid century Russian novels written between 1850 to 1900. Ok. Moving on with me. Thank you again for this special beginning of 2025 podcast from me and all your viewers. And all the knitroverts, many blessings and keep suggestioning to your family and friends to get out of the house more often. The longer the better. Prayers for 🌧️☔
I have the YOTM and the Halloween clubs from Freckled Whimsy. Maybe she had to ship mine later since I had both clubs? Who knows. But I’m excited to cast on the YOTM. I’m glad you’re enjoying her yarn, I absolutely love it!
sorry, got a burning question. if the skein is 100gr and the pair of socks is around 75gr, do you count all 100g out from your stash, or just 75gr out? or you do that after deducting some of the yarn for the cozy memories blanket?
I count the full skein out of my stash, and how many grams the socks weigh. For my cozy memories blanket, I weighed the first square, and it was 3 grams. So I count all the squares to be 3 grams.
I’m like you I watch the hobbit and lord of the rings movies a couple of times a year and the Harry Potter movies and books I watch and read at least once a year
Hi Lisa! Love the socks! And the blanket is just amazing!!! Happy Wednesday 💜
Love hearing about all the stats! Not boring at all 😊
Your socks and blankets are gorgeous, as always 💚
Happy New Year, Lisa and your family, from Swansea, Illinois. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I really enjoy your podcast! I look forward to your weekly episodes!

Killing Eve was just wonderful. I fell in love with both characters.

You’re inspiring me to knit from stash in 2025! Hope we can keep it up!

Yay for Stash Tales! ❤

Girl I’ve been looking all over for pumpkin spice creamer because you’ve had it in your last few episodes not knowing that you’ve stock piled it 😂
Yep!!! 🤣🤣🤣
i am about to rewatch Friday Night Lights
Love that show too!
I made a video and put it on my UA-cam channel about my plans. I’m doing 30 minutes of knitting on my memory blanket each day, I’m going to finish it this year.
Yay! Good luck!

I thought about getting fairy lights. 😆

As someone commented earlier, the color way is absolutely stunning. And I do surely agree.
❤❤❤

Amazon prime has Rings of Power, which one s a LotR story. The wheel of time. The boys is great. Gen V is a spin off of the boys.
Oooo! Yes to all of those shows! 🤣
What did your dad think about his pink pair of slippers?
He thought it was funny. And he’s still wearing them. 😆
I’m like you I watch the hobbit and lord of the rings movies a couple of times a year and the Harry Potter movies and books I watch and read at least once a year
