I can't wait till I have finished my christmas makes so I can start on something new, I am feeling very inspired now 😊

I love that new Joji hat pattern--even though I'm not a fan of cables. I might join in that mitten gal if I make good progress on all my gift knits this month.

I love that you wear a different sweater/wearable every episode. They're all so beautiful

What a fun bunch of patterns! I need to knit faster and sleep less!

I just love your videos! You inspire me. Another awesome video! I don’t want to be entered for the pattern. Just enjoy listening to you.

I've knit a lot of Joji's patterns and have a lot in my library but I don't think I've ever seen that Always There Cardigan. It's gorgeous and looks like it would be so fun to knit. I'm going to have to go look it up! Thanks for sharing!

Great content as always. How long do you think your son will be able to wear the Flax for a year or two? My son out grew his clothes in spurts 😂

I love the new intro. I haven’t been knitting much. Instead, I’ve been working on junk journals as gifts.

I have made a ballet cardigan, the pattern I used for mine is a Jennie Atkinson pattern, it has about 1 1/2 to 2" of positive ease as I wanted to be able to fit a t-shirt, or light weight cotton top underneath. The one thing I would say about the pattern I used is that the sleeves were very long, I'm about 5ft 2" and I had to take about 1 1/2"-2" of length of the sleeves, but the body fitted me well without a lot of adjustment, which means it may be a little short for someone taller than me.

Hi Mandy, you little enabler you!!! Okay I jumped on the colourwork mitten mystery MAL with you 😊 we are finally getting winter weather starting. Oh and maybe the hubby can put studs on your wheels for winter 😊

Hi Mandy, I love your new intro/outro you did a great job!

The Always there sweater is beautiful especially like the color.

Again lots of fab patterns Mandy. So much temptation! I do like a Caitlin Hunter pattern. I have the Misurina on the needles which I must pick up again xx

Thanks for podcasting. Your son's sweater is gorgeous.

It was me who won the pattern it's gorgeous, and I will be starting it soon. X

O, I can see why your son is so enthusiastic about his sweater ! Those kitty patterns look quite fun, I especially think that my cats would enjoy a felted mouse, so maybe I should give that a try... As for those mittens; I saw it today, and signed up, it sounds like a lovely idea ! And I think you could perfectly well make a pair, if you like the idea as well. Thusfar I only made one pair of mittens myself, so... They didn't really fit, but they were stranded colourwork as well, one size only, and that turned out to be just a tad too small for me. But otherwise I had no problems knitting the mittens, and as you already did so much colourwork, I guess it would be a breeze to you. Although of course I don't mean to add another plan to your already growing pile.. 😉😁

I have the Ashford 24" rigid heddle loom with a stand and I can get my wooden dining chair between the legs of the stand, it is a useful size for both scarves, shawls and things like bags and cushion covers. If you measure the width of your wheelchair including the wheels, that may give you an idea of whether the stand is accessible for you, a narrower loom may mean that you have to move over to a different chair while weaving.

I do dream knitting a LOT. As in, looking at and planning knits instead of using that time to actually knit. I do it with all my hobbies (looking for books instead of reading all the books that are already on my TBR, same for cross stitch, diamond paintings, fabric and patterns for sewing, etc). I think what it is is that the newness factor has worn off for what I'm working on, so my brain starts hunting for quick dopamine in the same realm. So even though I'm not actually doing those, my brain rewards me for thinking about doing them almost as if I actually did them. The Constellate looks really cool. It sort of looks like dip stitch.

Hi Mandy. I was weaving before I started knitting. I have an Ashford 25” rigid heddle and a stand and I love it. Remind me on a Saturday zoom and I’ll show you some of the things I made. I really need to get back to it so thanks for sparking a reminder. P.S. I love the colors of your ESP chicken.

The fade on the Flax sweater is seamless. It is very nice to see what you are working on. The loopdigan ❤

knitting furiously at xmas cowls for the grandkids here😂the flax is looking fantastic in the gray black fade❤

That Caitlin Hunter patterns is beautiful! I've signed up for the mitten kal. I think it is small enough that I should be able to keep up. I have finished 10 hats for my grandchildren! Thank you for a lovely podcast.

The always there cardi is a very nice pattern. You should put snow tires on your wheelchair.

OMG, your Lace & Fade Boxy is gorgeous!! Those are totally my colours! I've had that in my queue forever and really need to make it! xoxo

That is so funny about your daughter forcing you to vlog so she could get the gnome. Has she claimed the hat from last week yet?

Love the lace and fade boxy! The colors play beautifully together 😍

Ooh, the Earnest Cardigan though! ❤❤❤

Your sons flax is stunning, it’s a shame Mandy isn’t selling the gradient sets at the moment (lack of minis due to advent season!)

Not a cat fan but that is so cute, no wonder your daughter wants it. Peacoats and trench coats are examples of double-breasted coats. Lion Brand is usually my go to yarn for larger items because I can’t make a sweater for under $50. I once participated in a make along using the recommended yarn for a sweater about $200! Never again.

Your (daughters!) cat gnome is amazing 👏😘

Your cat gnome is so cute, you did an amazing job 😊

Don't you just love when others are excited about the things you're making?!

You could do a blue crocus on the winter cat hat~ they can flower early, sometimes even through snowy times. Also, YAY, I won 😃 thank you!! I will contact you via Ravelry

Beautiful work

Lovely episode yet again Mandy. I think that the shawl reference is to do with the collar perhaps. Just doing brioche ribbing on my Go Go Dynamo, hadn’t understood 2 colour brioche sequence until now!

Your kitty gnome is just the cutest!

Your (E’s 🤣) cat gnome is super cute. Maybe a white cat with a red hat would be easier on your eyes?

The double breasted sweater looks like a classic you could pull off forever!

That cat gnome 😍😍😍

I love the colours of your sweater! Beautiful!

Weaving looks like so much fun!

When knitting with back or dark colors I put a white towel on my lap or on the floor in front of me where my knitting meats in the way the background is lighter so it helps to knit/ crochet

Thanks for another lovely episode. Your nails look beautiful, and they matched the boxy you were wearing ! You've got very lucky kids, for getting those sweaters. I love how the gradient in your sons' flax is looking. A lot of inspiration again ! The Luftmeer looks beautiful, hadn't seen this one yet, though I've been eying some of Bogdanova's other patterns. I also really liked the Airson Fir and the Earnest cardigan, but I'm not sure if I have the stamina for so much cabling.... As for the 'shawl' tag in the Earnest, I guess it's because of the collar.

Just up in the middle of our night so popping in to watch through quickly a first time! Love the xmas vibe with the amigurumi cat...the new caitlin hunter Barndance sweater has just been released, now I can go back to bed! G'nite!😋

would work for your cat if you put the beads/stuffing in a men’s black sock. That way the stuffing won’t show through and beads won’t fall out. I don’t know about you but I have several mate less socks on the dryer

The kitty is adorable! Thanks for sharing your projects

I usually have a few 4" fabric squares for quilts that I turn into a little bean bag if I'm making an Ami or stuffy

The Christmas kitten gnome is so cute! I make a gnome each year in December. I have a cute collection that lives around my Christmas tree.

Hi Mandy, that Christmas kitty is so cute! Good luck with all of your knitting plans in the coming weeks. But can I say… your fingernail polish is beautiful! Someone is very talented with the polish. Happy knitting

That men's sweater is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing patterns. And you did get a lot done on your son's flax. You'll have that done in no time.
