It’s so nice to show examples as you speak.

I am on the last part of a variation of your sock. I started toe up since I am good at really nice rounded toes this way. I am never happy with how my toe winds up from doing cuff down patterns just not good at it I guess. I used two sets of the cables on the front with a nice border made of four pearled stitches on either side of the basic pattern. Then I used the knit stitch after that and on the back. So far very easy and fun to do! Thank you so much for actually showing the work on the cables...others make this very confusing.. They do a single cable round and tell you to do 5 or 6 more rounds but don't show it so if you don't see a patten below, you have to buy it. So great that you did this so well as a knit along and I can now incorporate this in other projects~

These are cute. I like and have made several patterns from Lisa Chemery aka Frogginette Knitting. Very timeless pieces.

Another idea are dresses! A short sleeve top connected to a skirt is quite stylish and can be worn several different ways if the skirt part is nice and long - either maxi or midi for more styling options

So happy we live where there is fall! I just saw a picture of my little granddaughter with her hands tucked up her sleeve so I’d say I’ll be knitting mittens and hats. Hope you continue to enjoy your cozy knitting.🧶🍂🍁🍃🫖☕

Is there a skill or handicraft you wish you had been taught growing up? I was always creative as a child with scrapbooking, writing, and sewing, but it wasn't something that was mixed into school and learning, and eventually I lost the motivation and time to continue. I look back on it now with fresh eyes (don't we always!) and plan to teach my kids what education means in a totally different, more well-rounded way than I was taught.

What do your kids and grandkids really enjoy reading? Mine are so interested in adventures lately!

Another great episode and encouraging. Showing how versatile being creative can be beneficial and opportunities to both learn with and learn from. I think that is a BIG difference that the educational system is missing, other countries and cultures offer creative courses into the education as a core curriculum even if for a short period of time but it is implemented more. I'm glad I had music classes and options for band, choir & orchestra but nothing on a life skill till one short lesson of sewing in home ec within Jr. High. Make a pillow class. Great presentation and support of life skills, nurture learning and reflection of a child's interest to make it relatable as a craft or gifting opportunity. You did a great job presenting and being well rounded/versatile to encourage creativity in & with learning.

That's a great way to teach them to cast on! I love it! Do you have tricks like this for when they have already cast on and they're working back and forth on their rows? My daughter was struggling to remember where to put her needle.

Love this episode. It’s just in time for Christmas shopping. Thank your children for their reviews.🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶💕

This such a great episode I think many will appreciate esp for parents and finding the right books for kids in a craft genre that is supportive and not forced. Can also provide or stir excitement for being creative or offer understanding as to why others enjoy it, also important. Thanks for sharing these books and your time with us.😊

I love Ned the thumb!! ❤😂

Blessings Queen Beautiful family 💕💕💕💕💕

Omg I love it!❤❤❤

Hi Dana. Its Caroline. I just wanted to say. The harry potter books are not good for children. Too dark side I heard you mention you are a church going person. Please remember garbage in garbage out. Take care and God bless you and your precious family. 🙂

Dayna, this is wonderful! I have three kids and I homeschool. I was one of the lucky ones as my mother knits, crochets, sews and beyond and I learned from her. Both of my older kids (youngest is too young for anything yet) love to sew. My daughter can crochet now but my son chose knitting as his preferred craft. In fact he was knitting today because he wants to make our kitties a blanket lol Such a wonderful idea and I’m definitely subscribing ❤❤❤

I love that you are doing this! I am so hopeful that knitting, and all needle-fiber crafts, will not fade away. I knit, crochet and cross stitch. I homeschool my youngest who just turned 16. Thankfully she was very eager to learn all of those around age 12 & 13. She is not currently working on any projects and I half expected that with her current age. I’m thankful she has the skills and know she will return to her WIPs at some point.

So good to have a knitting visit with you. I grabbed the sock I'm working on and enjoyed your company. It always feels like having coffee with a friend. Thank you!

The Mitford series is my all time favorite comfort read. I love those people, they have become "real" to me over the years. If you have access to the audio version, the narrator for most of the series. John Mc Donough (sp?) Has the most soothing voice which just makes Jan's wonderful stories even richer.. You didn't ask but I'm thinking frog your woodsy sock and use the yarn for a non-sock project or donate it. If it is splitting as you knit. it probably won't hold up to the wear and tear of being a sock. Socks have a lot of time invested in each one so use the yarn that'll hold up to wear. Enjoy your summer and your Shawltember to come.

I'm glad that your kiddos love Harry Potter. That was (still is) one of my favorite book series ever!! I don't think that I have finished any other book form the Chronicles of Narnia either. I would love to read those books at some point, but it has been so long since I have heard anyone talk about them

Lovely to see you back Dana. Love all the socks you showed And yes I too love full shawls As for the crochet. I’m a traditional person I guess and would want to stray from the “normal colors” BUT I think you could absolutely make little tea cups for the kids. And muffins/cupcakes. I would think about what “flavor” you could pass off for with each color. Like a pink can be a sorta strawberry cream flavor. Just play and have fun!

Dana. It’s so good to see you back! I was quietly suggesting The Lion,The Witch and the Wardrobe and then you said it. 😊 It’s a very special time of life reading to your children. Enjoy every minute! ❤️

Missed ya, so thrilled to see ya again 😊

I hope knitting together starts your weekend off well! 💛

🧶💞I miss your sharings because they are wholesome, cozy, friendly, gentle, natural, and NOT ostentatious or conceited. You are you, and your chats and knitting are very valuable . Most knitting podcasts i have watched are so full on that it scrambles my brain.

Baby size for 1 month old

I'm just going to try & learn myself, fingers crossed 🤞

Wow the crochet headband is beautiful. Where can I get a crochet patten from in chch?

Bought the pattern today, very excited to work these up!

Me siento tan identificada con lo que dices , soy esa mama primeriza con asiedad y depresion y despues de dos años a veces entro en colapso por el cansancio , amo tejer aunque siempre lo hago mirando algun video , pero me entristece mucho no poder crearlo o diseñarlo yo , no se calcular , poder volar esa imaginacion , no tengo esas herramientas y es muy frustante cuando te gusta tanto . 😢

I'm confused. My written pattern says nothing about a K2tog in row 15? Also, row 15 begins with k4, not p1.

Just to let you know, you are missed! I'm enjoying rewatching your older videos. I hope you are well. 😊

arigatōgozaimasu thanks so much you really saved me ❤❤❤

Can you show me the Dino Lovey pattern, it was adorable!

I'm new to your slow knitting TV but these are absolutely wonderful. It's like knitting with a friend <3 Thank you for making these videos.

What you said about the phone scrolling time is SO true! I did that, where I told myself every time I started scrolling that "wait, this could be knitting time!", and just during those scrolling times alone I got SOO much knitting done!

Thank you for your tips!

I love this idea! A lovely mindful way to look at my knitting and crochet.

Happy almost March! I'm ready for all things spring in my knitting, but I want to share the realistic, simple way that I keep inspiration going in my knitting during the season. Are you feeling the spring knitting inspiration yet?

I definitely agree with knitting for anxiety!! I had a really hard pregnancy with my first. I went into preterm labor and had to be on bed rest. While I was in the hospital a woman dropped by and loaned me a loom with yarn. She gave me a paper with instructions with a RUclips video link. It was such a memorable moment when I made my sons first hat!! 😭 it helped me so much during that time.

Such a wonderfully cozy chat! The honeycomb stitch pattern is so squishy and cozy feeling. I just love the look of it! 🍯🐝 It makes this sock pattern so unique too having it on the back on the leg. I’m excited to knit a pair up!

I just listened to your podcast where you talked about your call to do the podcast and slow knitting. Thank you for sharing 🥰 Have just noticed your corner at RUclips, and I love it. Stay blessed!

I seat by my fireplace Today to start knitting" The wonderful Wallaby" Sweater for my very first grandchild to be born in May, so how better to be listening at! thanks for your videos! that yarn that you are knitting those sock with it's sooo beautiful ❤❤

Thisssss 🙌 so much wisdom and inspiration in your words. I got caught up in the busyness of trying to create a knitted hat business and it was stealing my joy but I went into that same mindset as I started knitting garments just for myself and I had to take a serious step back. It's easy to fall into the trap of "wanting to keep up" with everyone on social media but I have been slowing my knitting down and falling back in love with the process.

Tutorials are always good to have along with your patterns! Nice cable sock!

Happy day after Valentine's! Let's knit and chat together 💛❤

I missed you! Thanks for sharing the progress on the stockings, they're so pretty! I also took a bit of a break from knitting but I'm back at it now. I really like your basket ideas and I may copy it. Love the shawl colour as well! I enjoy your case of the cozies segment as well! Take care 😊

This is a tutorial for a crochet headband for girls, the Peony Fields Headband. Check the description box for all the yarn and supplies info! What size will you make?

It has been sunny the last two weekends so we went for a hike by the river. I brought my sock knitting, but we didn't sit much. I'm nearly done with a pair of rose rib socks. Just the toe is left.

I do the same I stop knitting for a while! and feel bad about all the things I did not finish! it's just been a human I guess! love your basket idea! and love your channel ❤️
