I get so bored with stockinette sweater bodies also! I have found I have to take it to the movie theater & work on it instead of socks, then I get quite a bit done.

Happy belated New Year! Love you wips for your make nine board. Look forward to seeing your progress - very inspiring, beautiful knits. 😊

I love what's called "Scarf No 4" by My Favourite Things Knitware. I'm new to this so don't really know how to read a pattern yet. This must have a cashmere knit yarn. It's stunning.

Great video with lots of new ideas. For scarves! May I ask what your sweater is and what you knit it with? It looks lovely on you!

I don't do Make 9s because I feel that would take the joy out of my knitting but that being said, your Make 9s are SO DOABLE! I think you should start with the one most done already (the steeked sweater) and work your way to least done. It would be so cool for you to wear the steeked sweater in Scandinavia!! Looking forward to seeing your FOs. I have now added Le Triangle to my queue.

I love that you made a make 9 with your WIPs. Also, just get that button band picked up!!!

Can’t wait to see your alpine bloom for rose city. I was thinking that could be a goal for it then you said it!

I love the idea of the make 9. I would be struggling to breathe if i had 20/30 wips lol. Congrats on your crochet shawl, it is beautiful. when you can do the granny stitch in crochet you do anything. I want to do more cables and have a go at colour work. Happy New Year from Ireland🤗🤗🍀🍀

I have not made a Make 9 board. I am afraid to lock myself in to those 9 projects. I am afraid I would loose interest and have to switch around too much. 😂

Love how you're making the "Make 9" concept work for you! I don't do a Make 9 because I just don't feel the need to make one (others can do whatever works for them!). Cheering you on as you finish those WIPs!!! YOU GOT THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

Great great podcast! You can do all 9 for sure! Icelandic sweater would be great to finish…with support! The Zoom idea is great! Just do it! ❤

I thought you'd like knowing that you totally motivated me to finish my heirloom quilt cardigan. It took 10 months, and it is a dream to wear. Can't wait to see yours!

OMG girl just pick up that buttonband and do it! It will take you like one or two nights and then boom you've got a finished sweater! (says the woman who procrastinated knitting sleeves for like 3 months and then it took 2 days to knit them) 🤣🤣 Anyway, love the idea of a make 9 with wips instead of new cast ons, you got this!! The only knitting related intention I am setting this year is getting to spend time with you in person again ❤

I loved your Make 9 WIPs. I don’t do a Make 9 board because I change my mind so often about what I want to make (or need to make for gifts). I also get distracted with learning new techniques, so when I find a technique that’s interesting, I want to cast on a project for that right away. I do have a goal of finishing my first sweater. I’m on the sleeves, so I’m almost done. It wasn’t nearly as difficult as I thought it would be, but like you, I just got bored. My first new technique I’m trying this year is ladderback jaccard since I love color work, but the lack of stretch in the fabric and catching the floats only to have them peek through Eve once in a while not so much. Ladderback jaccard is supposed to bestretchier and the caught floats don’t show through, so we’ll see. I’m fairly new to your podcast, and I’m enjoying it so much! Super excited for the next one!! ❤

Hello and Happy New Year from Iceland, Love your sweater , Hope you are gonna have a lovely time in Iceland in May. Love to hear all about it 🤩

Very useful, thank you 🫶

Nicole, that you so much for sharing your make nine. I’ve never made one, but as soon as you said you were including wips it made me want to make one with my wips and maybe a few new cast ons. You were genius for using your advent for your heirloom cardigan, I have to use an advent that might turn into the heirloom cardigan thanks to you.

I have never done a make 9 because I love the feeling / process of daydreaming about what may be next while I am finishing the current big work in progress. I try not to have too many big things going at once so that I can actually feel like I am getting somewhere and don't feel overwhelmed. I have many sweater quantities and plans in my queue but part of the fun is going with my mood for each next project. Good luck on finishing up these WIPs! You will feel amazing when they are complete and you can enjoy them off the needles.

Nicole, give your future self a win by finishing your Icelandic sweater now so that you won't be scrambling to finish right before your trip when you will have a million other things to think about. You will feel joy when you pull out that finished beauty and put it in your suitcase. Plus of all your wips this one seemed to have minimal work to finish.

Happy New Year to you and your family! From Swansea, Illinois.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Good for you for having your WIPs as your Make 9! You can do it!!!

I love that your Make 9 is WIPS! Loved seeing and hearing about them. Take care ❤

thank you for sharing your updates!! you need to tag up with a friend who likes the boring stuff in knitting who can do your button bands / etc. in my knitting group we have people pass around things like this!! lol

I made a list of 12 projects I wanted to make this year that I already have the yarn and patterns for. I’m also trying to work through some of my wips. I set a goal for myself to work two sections of one of my wips per day and then I can move on and work on one of the new projects from my list. I’ve made a lot of progress this week on my cardigan wip and hopefully I’ll have it finished while it is still cold outside.

Beautiful projects! 🩷fun to visit with you! xo

Wow I can believe you have so many things on your needles. I am jealous lol. I don’t think I could keep up mentally but your a young professional with a active mind. I am 64 don’t like but maybe a sock a shawl or scarf and then maybe a sweater. You are such a inspiration for sure. I was watching A lovely Yarn and she is doing A Granny Square Shawl by chrochetObjet it cute and was thinking of doing that one which she designed to just lay on the shoulders like a crescent. Not long in the back but seems to stay better on the shoulders. She also has a podcast here called ChrochetObjet Knitting. Good luck with all your projects and look forward to your progress Judy

Thank you so much for this list of lovely small scarfs patterns . So many pretty options ❤

Hi Nicole! I’ve just caught up on your Vlogmas and wanted to wish you all a very happy new year! I look forward to seeing what 2025 has in store for you and your family ✨💖

Impossible Creatures is amazing, I hope he enjoys it.

Merry Christmas! Your Vlogmas is so enjoyable! Safe travels and enjoy your family time during the holidays. 😍🎄

That Chelsea Yarn advent project look great. The only Advent I have is Woolens and Nosh and I have kept up with each day on both socks. Our colors are the same but the sequence is different. That through the wardrobe advent is kind of strange. Not so sure I like it

Hello Nicole and family. ❤❤❤❤❤

Ballet class looks so fun!

I love Howl's Moving Castle!! Such a good book. I want to read the sequels

Lovely that the kids were singing in Latin. We've just been going through a ton of Mum's old school reports etc and she seemed to always have 'could do better' for her Latin subject comments 😂

That Le Triangle shawl looks fabulous! The colours look great togehter (also, shout-out #festivemovieMAL!).

I purchased the pattern and knitting for olive cashmere 😢turns out one expensive ball is not enough, it’s only 2 ply and it recommends you use 2 strands of it , wish I just purchased one ball of Cardiff cashmere now . Sophie’s scarf is expensive for a tiny pattern . Stop moaning now …..

Make a magic knot ball for you pink/purple Le Triangle

Those matching pjs are so stinking cute!

I love that you got your book framed!! Is the whole book in there or just the cover print??

Hello Nicole and family, from Swansea, Illinois. ❤❤❤❤❤

Hello Nicole and family, from Swansea, Illinois. ❤❤❤❤

Me and Shane sometimes have a 'city day'. He works and I catch up on lots of boring stuff (like cleaning out my email and doing our business books etc). I find it so much more productive not being at home with all the other stuff to distract me. We often move about a bit and sit in different places around the city, it's fun.

I didn't knit the Sophie scarf but have knit the Sophie shawl!! And i love the concept of a triangular scarf that works up so fast!

Great that you think Mabel is feeling a bit better. It's hard to keep them quiet so they recover though hey!

It's hard when your pets get injured, you just want to cuddle them and make them better! xx

I remember last year I was really shocked by all of the advent calendars you had and how you must spend over $1000. But you explained that you are out of town for most of Christmas so I am guessing that these advents replace the large number of presents you would have under the tree. But except for the edible advents what do you do with all those little toys?
