seeing your failed sock made me so sad :(( when you're ready to give socks another try, I really reccomend Summer Lee's Basic Bitch Sock pattern, It's so beginner friendly (it was my first sock pattern!) AND free AND comes with youtube tutorials - I really recommend it!

I bought Willow and Champagne Problems as well but both in DK! Hoping to keep and make next fall for a Stripe Hype

Yarn is so freakin expensive, glad that this can be helpful to your purchases!!! Love your videos. I think I remember you mentioning you are catching up on RHOSLC.....you are in for a treat haha the recent season is ridiculous in the best way. Sending love from one knitter to another! Love your Irene Lin pullover vest, it is on my TBKnit list

Hi Ally! Your FOs look fantastic. I would highly recommend Summer Lee's basic sock pattern. It is included with the colorwork cuff club bundle, so if you're interested in adding colorwork charts to it, it would be a good purchase! I knit 15 socks in October alone and 9 of them were Summer Lee designs. Summer Lee is also such a lovely person, it makes buying her patterns feel a little nicer :)

I started the first 12 rows of the Lana Vest a couple of weeks ago and then sort of didn't know if I wanted to keep going... but your endorsement has made me fall in love with this design all over again! Mine is in Baa Ram Ewe Winterburn DK in a taupe colour so I was questioning my choice. I LOVE the design in cream but I think I'll love it in taupe too. Just another neutral to throw over everything! Thanks for the inspiration! And the Jared Flood sweater is GORGEOUS!

Great job on your boyfriend's Rift Sweater! Excellent work. And the cables on your Lana Vest are stunning! 👏🏾🧶

My favorite go-to sock patterns are the Ol' Reliable Top Down and Trusty Toe-Up from Tanis Fiber Arts. They are such well-written (free!!) basic patterns, and I often use them as a base if I want to do a ribbed sock or some other texture.

the willow colorway is gorgous!

Rift sweater question! I loved watching your journey with it and I want to make one for my dad. He’s a large man so I was surprised his chest circumference is 48” so I’ll make the 51.25” size. I’m surprised his measurements don’t put him at the largest size. Does the pattern recommend positive ease or is it based on true measurement? I’m also worried it may fit his chest but not midsection. Any insight is appreciated!

I thought I was the only one who put yarn on their desk for emotional support 😂

Congratulations on the men’s sweater! It’s gorgeous! Your tenacity! 🔥🔥🔥

Great people for sock knitting you tube are crazy sock lady and earthtones girl. I personally like top down socks the best. Best of luck with your interviews and The Match.

So happy for you about being monetized! And seriously I bet it’s such a amazing feeling to get to buy yarn from doing something/sharing about something you enjoy!

Tin can knits rye socks 🧦 but also I find it interesting that toe-up socks confuse people. They’re so much easier for me bc I measure my foot toe to ankle bone, that’s the foot length and work the heal from there (or a little shorter for superwash yarn growth). Maybe you should get the big book of sock knitting patterns bc it’s goes in depth about sock anatomy.

My go to pattern is the 402 sock- I prefer going cuff down with a heel flap and gusset over a heel with short rows. It took me forever to figure out socks!! You got this! Also, love love love the lana vest! Makes me want to tackle a cabled vest or sweater

Hey, I get what you mean by that the sock pattern is confusing. As a German knitter I might be able to give some explanation. In Germany we have a lot of like big yarn brands that are well known for their sock yarn (Schachenmayr, Regia, Lana Grossa) and they often provide with the yarn sock knitting instructions for free (either online or as little booklet). But the instructions aren’t like a written pattern but just a table for all sizes. You have different tables for the yarn weights (fingering, sport, dk). But in the tables there is just the shoe size listed with the amount of stitches you need to cast on, the length for the foot and the decrease rate. It’s very bare and minimalistic. But that’s how a lot of people here learn how to knit socks. So I guess Susanne Müller combined this very old school way of sock patterns with a modern way of describing every step and just assumed people would rely on the table. Doesn’t make it less confusing but it explains the way the pattern is written.

Ohhh, I love when everyone is sick at the same time 😂 glad to see you upload again!

okay now that I've watched your whole vlog I'll give you more details on my Lana: I'm using Drops Nepal (65 wool, 35 alpaca) in color 0100. I bought it from wool warehouse and it was super affordable! This was also my first all over cable work project (and only my third wearable) and I loved how unnecessarily detailed it was because I don't really enjoy charts at all haha. I have made two mistakes (so far...), I did one of my larger cables the wrong direction (and of course its on the front and like 50 rounds back...I'm going to attempt to duplicate stitch it later on to fix it), and in the textured portion on the outer arm portion I somehow got out of pattern and have this random row of stockinette haha. But otherwise I'm loving it and just going for it. I live in socal so I'm hoping its pretty wearable. I've struggled finding things I could make that are practical to wear here. Thats all, love your vest!!

omggggg I’m on row 30 something of the Lana vest this is perfect! 🥰

Excellent job on your vest! Love the stitch definition. 🧶

Fantastic! I loved seeing your that you made this vlog. Congratulations!

Waiiiit! i'm knitting the body of my Lana vest now. I love that I found this!

The melancholy bafflement about the election was very relatable ☹️ Beautiful project, thank you for sharing

❤ tolle Arbeit ❤ liebe es

Omg I LOVE only murders!! Thank you for this video, I'd totally be keen to see your take on the other seasons. I liked how Mabel's knitwear style changed from her "youth" to the present, just like when I was in University the "Gossip Girl" style was in with the preppy stockings and headbands - something I would never wear today! With regard to the ribbed yoke sweater, I thought the Biskrem from Nash Knits was close! Xx

There's a sweater pattern called Sea Glass Sweater that can use any number of colors, I think it's worth a try

I am knitting the Mabel Sweater, a fun knit with a great textured fabric. Joji's name? The Js are pronounced like Hs (as in HoHee). A nice round up of patterns.

I really enjoy your vlogs!! I've been lowkey knitting along this long weekend, its kinda like a parasocial knitting pal hahaha

Hi! Im excited I just found your channel!! I definitely subbed :) but may I ask since you love wool of the Andes yarn I was wondering if it was itchy at all?I’m looking for new yarn brands to try, and that one was on my list

I LOVE my 9” circular US1 and US2 needles for sock knitting! Almost exclusively what I use except like you said DPNs are better for colorwork

Loved this video. There is a beautiful knit from Mabel in one of the episodes where it is oversized and kind of a v neck with a collar, but the yarn is color changing and perhaps a bit self striping in red, yellow and maybe a bit of green I am not sure. But it is stunning. I think it is season 2 or beginning season 3.

oooo! Lana vest is on my list to knit but I've never done cables and I'm a little intimidated

So sweet of you to mention me, even though it wasn't me, haha! All of your gift knits are making me feel guilty, especially that scarf, WOW they are so lucky to receive that from you!

I purchased the Semper v neck sweater. OMG it was the worst most convoluted pattern I have used after 60 years of knitting! Pages and pages of pattern instructions. For such a basic pattern the instructions make it soooooo very complicated trying to figure out the number of stitches required for my size as well as increases and decreases! Would never ever purchase any of these patterns. When I reached out to designer questing some of the instructions I got support. Only that no one else had issues. Worst customer service!

Your Semper Slipover V-Neck looks great with your hair color. Thanks for the 3mm knitting needle info. 🧶

Love the vests and I wish the US would phase in metric system only. As a parent, fraction homework is horrible

Enjoyed your podcast. I would try the Sweet Shop blanket for your Wool of the Andes. Lately I’ve taken to knitting blankets and it’s such a relaxing project to have on the needles. I think there are also some neat new techniques that can be gained from this pattern as well esp since you like short rows.

I almost cried for you about your ruined Harlow sweater. That would have been PERFECT on you, shape and colour. Your friend’s Harlow colour is glorious, you have great taste. I’m going to make one too.

I don’t think I can make the Oslo Hat for my husband because the biggest size is small for his huge head 🫣 F1 I read rumors that Checo might retire actually 😳

If you don't want to alternate skeins the entire time you could just alternate towards the end of the skein so that the transition is smoother.

The green sweater with the sleeve detail: Wanderer Pullover. It would be best to steal the instructions for the fake layer on the sleeve (what the green sweater looks like to me) and add it to the recommended base pattern. OR just use the Wanderer Pullover, but do stockinette all over instead of charted sections, do double knit instead of rib on the fake layer and skip the fake layer on the body.

For the skein issue with the line you can do helical knitting with 2 balls of yarn of knit with one ball of yarn and then before you change balls alternate every other round for about 5-10 rounds and then break the first ball and continue with the 2nd ball

Wow how many gift knits you are making! 💪🏼🎄 I love the blanket idea, but I will throw in another pattern suggestion. I’m biased since it is my own design, but it’s a fun blanket to make a it has stripes! So I encourage you to check out Zigzag Zen blanket. 😇 I do love and recommend Laura’s patterns as well, I have made a couple and she writes her patterns really well.

I second the Stripe Hype!

You crack me up! You're so funny. Love your videos.

Best knitting video I've ever watched! (ok apart from the random stretchy bind-off video's I keep searching for when in dire need) Pleaseee make a part 2!

I knitted one sweet shop blanket and really did not like dealing with the finishing. It’s fun to knit the squares, tho. I find it better to crochet blankets. Lots of ideas on the Daisy Farm crafts channel.

Maybe do the Stripe Hype Sweater by Kutovakika! Perfect way to use scraps!
