Hi Linda! Have fun on your trips 😃 I’m going to London for a week mid October, and flying Ryanair means only 1 small carry on bag- so I’m opting for socks too! Not doing the Mkal this year, one reason being my trip; I’ve found that when I can’t ’keep up’ with the Mkal I lose the fun of it. But I’ll enjoy watching your progress 🤗
How many suitcases did you take? Going to Petra/Egypt/France/Norway in 2wks. Taking 1 WIP only. Max 9kg allowed on our domestic flight (Laughable) to catch our international flight. The aubergine will look lovely but be careful where it sits to bust area. Last year signed up for my 1st SWest MKAL last year, then the fiasco, so never started it. And now travelling so no time or suitcase space.
I love it! Everything you brought looks so fun and exciting! I particularly like the stain glass sock pattern (and your yarn choice naturally) and the other color work sock pattern (can't remember the name). I think I'd like to knit those.😊 Have fun on your sightseeing trip today. I'm off to Shenandoah Valley Fiber Festival now to see what trouble I can get into!😂 ENJOY!!! ❤❤❤
Lovely knits. Love the various sock patterns. For your sweater I would just do the yoke in the colour work and then do the snowflake motif on the sleeve just before the cuff with a 2-3 row stripe of one of the contrasting colours just before and just after the snowflakes. Thanks for mentioning Once Upon a Sheep. Unfortunately I live too far away to visit them, but will look at their website. Have fun on your adventures in Spain. Take Care.
Hi Linda! You’re sweater is beautiful! I think the color work will have a greater impact if you stop after the yoke. Just my opinion since you asked. ☺️
Hi Linda….for Patrick’s sweater, would it work to knit the sleeves flat and make the sleeve cap as per instructions and then seam them and attach?? Good luck with the MKAL, last year’s kinda put me off so I’ll watch for the sidelines this year.
Hello Linda, Just wanted to let you know that I love to watch your podcasts. I llive in Pokemouche, North-East of New Brunswick and I'm packing up my yarn to go to Spain also.. I'll be in Torremolinos from the 6th to 21st of October. If by any chance you pass by the Bajondillo Hotel, I would be so happy to meet you. Hope you have a great time on your trip... 🙂
Making great progress on all your knits, Linda! My eyes popped when I saw the sticker... and then you giggled for me LOL Love it! have a wonderful road trip and enjoy your car knitting! Oh my goodness I'm getting fomo seeing your Go Go Dynamo on the screen... arrrgghhhhhhh I wanna do it toooooooo!! lol
Hi dear Linda, so much looking forward to Barcelona, especially now it is getting closer.🥰🤩 I always get a big smile on my face when I see you with that pouch.😃 About your Christmas cardigan: I have made one myself approx. 1,5/2 years ago and did the colorwork all over. Last year I have made the sweater and did the colorwork in the yoke only, and that was also very beautiful. With your beautiful colors I would knit the colorwork only in the yoke, and knit the body in mc, because the yoke will then already be so gorgeous. And yes, I am ready to Go go dynamo; we’ll go for it.😂🤣💪🏻 Love your color combo. Have a great roadtrip in Spain, dear friend. 😘💕
I think your beautiful colourwork sweater would look best with just colour in the yoke. Doing all colourwork may distract from the beauty of it. Enjoy your time in Spain.
Hey Babe Stick with just the yoke colourwork and make those 4 colours shine. Can't wait to hear about the Barcelona knitting world.... I am walking the Portuguese Camino next year and would love a good excuse to visit Barcelona when in Spain. Love your podcast. Jeannie from OZ.
I'm interested to see how the neckline and shawl collar goes for your husband's sweater. I'm hoping to make and for my husband, but I'm slightly intimidated. I dobplan to knit flat through because I don't mind flat knitting.
Hi I'd just make the yolk colour work and many your favourite motif by the cuff of the sleeves as it would be very busy all over. You look beautiful with and without make-up .
Looking forward to the SW mystery shawl, too!! I am not daring, so I am making mine totally out of two shades of cream with vanilla mohair!!! I figure I will learn lots of fun stitches, and not have to worry about a crazy end product.😊

Loved this Linda, all your knitting is so gorgeous. Those speckled socks are amazing, those colors are fantastic. Happy travelling & knitting! :)
Lovely to see you Linda, I would just do the yoke on your Christmas jumper, it looks amazing. Have a great time in Spain 🧶
Hi Linda! Enjoy your time in Spain! I think you should only do color work on the yoke of your Festive Sweater because of all the different colors.

On your sweater, I would just do the yoke and something on the sleeves near the cuffs. Love the colors.
Have fun with all your beautiful projects Linda! Love the apple green color 💚. Have a great time in Spain! ❤
Hello hello...I'd like more, if you do just the yoke in colourwork for your festivesweater, but everything you do is so wunderful 🥰

Love all of your projects, and I would just do yoke colorwork on that sweater.
Yay 🙌 glad you’re doing the SWMKAL so looking forward to it too 😊.

Good Plan! Cant wait to see your version🤗.
I’m going to Barcelona too! I am so excited but nervous as going alone. Will look out for you!
Hi Melanie! If you are travelling alone.. or with a group… happy to meet up! Just let me know your preference- no obligation🤗
