    I was inspired by your videos to try knitting, not something I expected would happen being a 43 year old man. I have watched your learn to knit videos and I am sticking to practising the basics with aiming to knit a jumper within a year maybe

      43? Try 64! That was how old I was when I learned to knit. I was about to be a first-time grandmother, I was retired, and I figured it was time to learn a craft. Baby sweaters? Why not? This was about the time when it seemed that so many young adults, male and female, were taking up knitting. It’s great to see knitting becoming so exciting for people of all ages and walks of life. I’ve enjoyed Kika’s delightful videos and can see why she inspired you to get started. I waited too long to try my first adult sweater, and it was silly of me. I could have done it in the first year. Go for it!

      I love that knitting is for everyone, when I was 3 years old I saw a woman knitting something and I just was so amazed that I dreamed to be like her but noone on my family knitted, but last year finally I started knitting by learning here in youtube and one day if I have kids I'll knit for them too ❤

    I bought your book as soon as it was released - I live in the Uk and the shipping costs were almost the same price as the book itself!! I'm so glad I bought it though, the patterns are gorgeous and I'm currently knitting the Stay Up Till Dawn sweater for my pregnant daughter, which is a lovely pattern and fairly easy to follow. I'm already half way through it and I only cast on 3 days ago. Thank you for creating this lovely book 🧶💗

Hoping to somehow get the book in the future, maybe in 1 of my trips to Europe in 2023. You’re an inspiration, & thanks for sharing all your stories that make me want to follow you more on social media. Keep up on all what you do.

    Thanks for the really interesting video! Your book came out just in time for my daughter’s birthday. She loves it! She lives in Norway and I live in Minnesota, so I had the dilemma of very high shipping costs for gifts from home. Then I remembered your book! Great gift and more much more reasonable shipping. Thank you so much! 🧶😊❤

    I bought your book and immediately cast on the fisherman’s knit cardigan. I have spent many hours trying to duplicate your perfection ripping it back to the ribbing three times. Will you consider doing a video of how to pick up after ripping back? I don’t want to admit defeat, I absolutely love that sweater.

    I love your aesthetic and I bought your book because your UA-cam channel shows your aesthetic, it's so special

I then remembered you blocking your knitting whilst on holiday so I’ve just soaked it in hair conditioner and it’s lying in the sun drying. I can’t wait to read your new book, my children have bought it for me as a Christmas present.

    Your videos are so exciting and inspiring! In 2018 I published my first book and I can relate to all of the stories you spoke of in your video. I also illustrated the artwork for my book. It is amazing how much I learned from the experience. Listening to you tell of your experiences as you prepared for publishing brought back so many memories for me also. I watch your videos often to be inspired as I knit and crochet. The time passes by so quickly. I’d like to send you one of my books if you would like? Please let me know where I may send it.
    Thank you for your energy and enthusiasm!

    I enjoy being inspired and learning from your videos. My husband saw my joy and ordered your pattern book for my birthday. I was so very excited. However, I write this as a caution to others ordering. Even though he specified English print,I he received a pattern book written in Finnish. I enjoy challenges in knitting, but knitting in another language would be a real challenge. I hope he can get it exchanged as I was really excited to start the New year knitting the Honey cardigan. KEEP MAKING VIDEOS!

I never was a e-book or kindle reader, with books I´m old school. BUT I saw that the book itself is now 32 €. I think in August it was € 24? The shipping costs to Austria are the same as before. I´m waiting...😗🎶 in the meantime I am enjoying the e-book. Love your photos and your designs. I will start to knit the first of the sweaters in your book soon. It won´t be my first sweater but my first Kika-Sweater 👕🧶💛and I am looking forward to it so much!

Then when you announced the book, I immediately asked for it for Christmas from my parents, and it arrived before my birthday in October so I was able to get it sooner! (this is the first knitting book I have ever had because I normally just make it up as I go, but I have loved the challenge!)
    My goal this holiday was to make everything as gifts (or at least have the majority of my gifts be hand made) and I have been using this entire book! The lighthouse beanie was a hit! A few family members asked me to make that one for them specifically - and I even tried one where I used a synthetic crushed velvet for the inner beanie (Which was the best idea ever because it becomes more of a fluffy 'lined' hat, which will be great for our Canadian winters!
    I don't normally comment on videos, but I had to say thank you so much for relighting my passion for knitting, and providing this amazing book! I can't wait to learn how to do a brioche stitch, and how to make lace!

I bought the pdf version of your book and I m currently working on my second lighthouse bennie! Hope to be able to cast on the maybe forever sweater soon. The pdf version is not as wonderfull as having a Real book in your hand but it s so usefull to be able to knit your designs if you can t afford the shipping cost! I hope to be able to have the Real version of your book soon so I can go through it by night in my bed with a cup of tea! Thank you also for showing the process of creating a design in a lot of your videos. As a young knitter I was desperate to undo my work when I did a mistake. By watching the number if Times you had to do all other again Parts of your own projects, it completly changed my point of view ! A long message to say thank you! :-)

    One day i went to visit my LYS and the owner said to me " oh, i just found out a new publisher that sell english knitting pattern books. It seems that they are from finland and they sell this beautiful book "Knit This". Do you know it ? " I was like "HELL YEAH I KNOW IT. KIKA IS MY KNITTING GODDESS. GO ORDER THEM BOOK'S STOCK NOW.

    It's a beautiful book. My partner bought it for me last month in E-Book Version. I did really want the physical version, but as you mentioned the shipping cost to the UK was double the cost of the book. I'm really pleased you managed to sort all that out. I may treat myself to the physical version at some point as well. I'm having a new circular needle set for Christmas and the yarn to make one of the jumpers from your book. Looking forward to casting it on Christmas Day! 😊

    i recently discovered your channel and i fell in love with it ! your aesthetic, your videos, everything is perfect.
    i ordered your book for christmas and i can't wait to start knitting all those wonderful clothes that you designed (especially because i have never found a knitting book with ''pretty'' clothes in it, they are mostly not trendy at all or just for grandmas lol)
    hoping it's just the beginning of a amazing journey for you, i'll make sure to purchase all the books you may publish in the future : )
    merry christmas and happy new year !
    xoxo from France

    I absolutely love your style of knitted pieces so I had to buy your book! I really wanted a physical copy because the photography is stunning and following a pattern is always easier for me on print. Unfortunately the shipping cost would be more than the book itself for me, so I bought the e-book instead and printed it out myself! haha

    I love your videos and I love your designs so much. I bought the ebook right away since I’m in the usa. Then was able to get my hands on the actual book that I really wanted. It’s so so gorgeous and I’m so happy to have it in my hands.

    I've been following you since you were making videos mostly about photography some time back and it's so cool to see you grow and find success in this field now! You knitwear is beautiful and definitely deserves to be shared with the world. Also I really love your genuine vibe, your videos feel very authentic and are so relaxing to watch :)

    This was a very interesting and fun video to watch. I discovered your channel right around the time your book came out, and I’ve been wanting to buy it ever since. I finally decided to just go for it! It’s being shipped to California, so I’m sure you know why I have hesitated. I am designing a sweater for myself right now, which is very much inspired by your designs so thanks for that! It’s been fun. 🥰

    Hello lovely Kika, I just wanted to tell you, I've found your channel in early summer 2021, I think? And I've been following along since then. It was also the time I was falling in love with my hobby knitting all over again and turned it into a passion (which might brought me to your channel because I was looking for knitting content to advance my knitting techniques). I always find your content inspiring and aesthetic, plus you're just so authentic that you really are my favorite content creator in the whole world. I'm actually working on a pattern myself atm but I'm so afraid of grading. I would love for you to tell us more about grading for different sizes while writing a pattern. Anyways, sending lots of love and wishing you an amazing holiday season!! :)
