ooh you had me googling, I love the ones with the weird construction! I have a bunch of old issey sewing patterns actually, they're all so delightfully odd - I should make something with them soon!

ooh I hadn't - it's so delicate!! I don't think I could hack the 3.25mm needles though 😅 ahh I'm so glad, thank you so much!!

oh yah 100% a yapper!! thanks so much 💚

That is so weird - I literally watched that video of hers today and discovered her!! I can’t get over taking colour palette inspiration from renaissance paintings - such goals!! Thank you so so much!

oh noooo - I am such a big fan of Daruma yarns, I have spent an embarassing amount of time scrolling projects using their stuff on ravelry. I didn't know they did pattern books, I might have to purchase this immediately now!! 🙈🙈 thank you so so much!!

aha, I'll take it, thank you!!!

Ahh that Pringle of Scotland Spring 2018 sweater at 30:16 is amazing!

hehe I had to jump back into the video to see what you were talking about 🤪 that's a heck of a lot of intarsia!!! thanks so much, I appreciate it!! 💚

omg yes totally, I think you're right!! ooh Prada knitwear is gorge, I say go for it!

ahhhh stop you'll make me cry!! Love you chicaa

yeah I feel like either Rebecca Clow or Laura Penrose mentioned this before - definitely feels like it makes more sense to just have that one reference and have all your bases covered rather than keep looking for individual patterns! the tincanknits strangebrew is another that looks super useful, but I guess I just don't gravitate towards circular yokes as much! thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out 🙏

ohh thank you, that means so much!! I hope you're right 🤪

oof! they are so pretty!! thank you so much 💛

ack - you are so kind!! lol I was going for a wes anderson vibe but mostly just needed a way to unify all my totally random clips, I hope it translated! ooh ok noted, I have started on that ganni argyle vest so will get to filming some clips!!

hehe it totally was, thank you again!! ooh that dries is super stunning, immediately adding to pinterest ahaha. it looks like a tape kind yarn - I feel like the multicoloured bits would be hard to source? could you use something like a ribbon instead? I've been thinking of crocheting a bag out of satin ribbons recently! oh man my partner likes those ralph lauren bear jumpers and I've been promising to recreate one, but it pains me to knit a whole plain boring jumper just to duplicate stitch it... I think maybe I should just thrift one instead 🤷‍♀️ I don't think I could brave a nakedknit tee - looks like a lot of knitting!!

@@nadia_makes Ribbon is maybe a good idea! I was looking at it again and wondering if I could cut strips of silk fabric but then I'd worry it would fray and look too ragged in the end. Thrifting your base seems like a really good idea. I have started a nakedknit tee in black and white stripes and I'm taking my time with it, just put in a little mindless stockinette once in a while -- usually I pick it up and get into 'lets at least change to the other color stripe before we put it down' (8 rows each), maybe end up doing 8 or 16 rows at a time. I think I want the product so much that I hope I won't forget about it forever. I also want a pure undyed cashmere one (if I have enough leftover colourmart cone after the cardi I'm making) so that one will lack even the stripe motivation but I hope putting in a progress marker I can trick/convince myself to keep going.

omgg tell me about it - I am trying to drum up the motivation to continue on this fingering weight oslo and am trying to trick myself by putting it next to my laptop whilst I work, so that I will absent-mindedly put some rows in whilst in meetings.... can't wait to wear it in 2026 lol i loooooove the idea of duplicate stitch on stripes, that sounds so cute!! silk strips would be beautiful but yeah would definitely end up fraying - could you maybe serge the edges like this etsy listing? www.etsy.com/ie/listing/716872773/ I feel like the different coloured thread would end up bothering me.. depending on how close to the original you wanted, maybe even hand dyeing some cheap cotton twill tape? you're tempting me with that colourmart cashmere... I am on a self-imposed yarn ban and ignoring their sale emails 🙈🙈

@@nadia_makes I have a serger I got aaaaages ago but I haven't used it... possibly ever...?! I really need to get over the wariness/fear that I don't want to thread it or that I don't like that it trims as it sews? Or fear that it's actually broken from my neglect. But yeah prob not quite what I picture for this cardi either... and also imagining processing time for two edges of all the yardage seems possibly too much. Twill tape appeals to me for sure. I don't think I need it precisely duped, I just need the gist/vibe in some way that looks good and not like a barf of craft supplies. Be careful of beginning the colourmart buying, you get credit back for your purchases and then you start rationalizing spend those bonuses... 🤪

​@@nadia_makes I should probably stop spam chatting you today but I thought I'd share 'one weird trick' I found recently... I am using knitcompanion app for some of my projects (new habit so it's not universal) but I've been enjoying using the 2nd counter to set a target number of rows or repeats, and toggling the 1st counter as I work... it's weirdly motivating and satisfying to make the numbers come together.

eek, thank you so much!! Have a lovely start to your week :)

ack I appreciate it so much!! love to colorado from Ireland!! ☘️

ohh a red one would be fab!! such a staple pattern ☺️

mmm, this is good shout! I was hoping to do a larger scale scallop kind of like this one? vspconsignment.com/en-eu/products/simone-rocha-black-mohair-knit-floral-cut-out-cardigan-2-5174-167 And I think that would be harder to do with a foldover? I suppose I could bind off between the scallops then decrease, then bind off each scallop individually... and then sew up the little gaps? ugh I guess the obvious answer is that I need to swatch!! isn't that always the answer? 😅 you've given me loads to think about, thank you so much!!

wow I didn’t even realise it says not to soak it 😮 how would you get it clean otherwise?!? man and garter stitch also grows loads - I will have to be super careful. Thank you so so much!!

Oooh - that is such a good idea I didn’t think of that!! I’m not sure the print would be consistent enough across balls - but I can give it a go!

omg yes!! I was screaming at myself whilst editing 😂 eeek thank youuu!!!

@@nadia_makes I thought it likely came to you later! It always seems to happen that way! Enjoying your podcast very much, thank you for sharing your ventures into the very /fashun/ realms, very inspiring!

omg I know, I seem to lose half of my vocabulary every time I sit down to film!! ack thank you, you are so very kind!!

@@urbanjunglegt 💚🍀

ahah I was going to ask for your recommendations because I didn't know many, then realized you were one!! 🤦‍♀️ for a country known for knits, I feel we're not very well represented in the podcast space lol eeeek thank you so much! your sweet shop is gorge <3

well I am honoured!! ahah noted, I actually don't think I'm capable of being brief so you're in luck 😉😂

no no, thank YOU for another lovely & heartwarming comment!! they're so so appreciated <3

oh wow yes you're so right!! rit dye it is then! yess when I was at my dad's last september it was 30 degrees, I'm just hoping that lasts all the way to the end of october ahah, I might be a bit too hopeful!

such a kind comment, thank you so so much! you read my mind - I finished the back panel in the last week, I couldn't be bothered to mess with the shoulder sloping when I cast on so went bottom up! then did the sloping by casting off stitches progressively instead of short rows/decreases. it felt very intuitive! I can understand the attraction of seamed knitting now - having said that, I have yet to seam a single piece together yet... 😂

ugh gawd I know!! my ufo pile glaring at me whilst I made that video lol thanks so much for your comment!! 🥰

Thank you!! 🥰

It’s so fun, would recommend! Although the real Marni sweater is now haunting me in my recommended ads everywhere, beware !! 😂😂

@@nadia_makes haha

That’s so lovely to hear!! I just feel bad making others listen to me talk for that long 😂 Ooh that’s an interesting idea, I don’t usually watch a lot of vlogs so I didn’t think of it! I’ve got some time to figure out how I’d go about it before we leave though, so thank you for the idea & encouragement 😊🥰

Have a lovely week too!! I hope you get at least one ray of sunshine before the weekend (or even better, at the weekend)! 💛

Hahaa, you can share in my summer pain 😂🥲 thank you so much for your lovely comments!!

Ack you are so kind! I’m glad RUclips connected us too 🥰 from everything I tend to consume I haven’t seen too many people knit with the cotton merino, so I’m curious too! I ended up buying the other balls needed, so I will try making that wrap soon. What kinds of things have you made with it? 😊

Yess doing all good now, it knocked me for a bit and I was a little worried my energy wouldn’t come back, but it’s been 4 weeks now and I feel pretty much back to normal 😊 I’m in awe of the people who have had it several times! Aha I’m glad it’s ok for you! I feel I gravitate towards podcasts that are ~1 hour or less. But, I’ve never been good at being concise 😂 I use the scrunchie as a scrunchie, ahah! It actually works surprisingly well in my hair, but I do find it a bit too much to wear on my wrist lol Your comments are so lovely and I suspect your one on my first video is a large part of the reason the algorithm picked it up, so I have to say a big big thank you!! 🙏🙏 I hope you had a lovely weekend and a chill week ahead 💚

@@nadia_makes That's such a relief to hear (and those nasty viruses better keep their hands off you and everyone)! Getting down with it sure is a pain. Of course I won't complain about the length from a podcast I love haha! 😂However long you enjoy sounds like the best! 💕I imagine the scrunchie is very flattering on thick, long hair, the yarn is beautiful! Please don't hand me the credit! It's definitely because your podcasts really deserved the (and more) attention. It's really enjoyable and comfy. The photo edits and links are so thoughtful too, it's probably quite a bit of work. I can go on about how happy I am to have found you and this channel but I'll save the ramble. 😅Thank you so much for the lovely reply and well wishes, please have a wonderful week ahead too Nadia!💕🍀

Thank you so much for your kind words!! Ooh those are good recs, I keep favouriting the cardigan seul and not knitting it but I should get to it!! Such a good basic 😊

Thank you so much!!

It’s nerve wracking for sure!! Thanks so much for your comment ❤️ wow, chile - that’s awesome!!

Je t’aime chica!!

Omg South Africa - I can’t believe it!! Thanks so much for your comment - filmed a new one this weekend 🤫🥰

Thanks so much! 🙏🥰

@@alicegroenewoud4471 100%, it is so nice to know, thank youuu!! The Regia is a great buy, if you had smallish feet you could even squeeze two pairs out 🥰

@@nadia_makes thanks!

@@kaybee7886 you’re so kind!! Ahaha hello from Kildare, how are you enjoying our ‘summer’ this year 😒🙄😂

@@nadia_makes Summer???? Did somebody mentioned summer? 🤣🤣🤣
