this is so precious!! also: absolutely head over heels in love with the patterned/fairisle cardigan you're wearing. did you knit it? if so, PLEASE may i have the name of the pattern 🥺 it's just what i've been looking for!

❤

I know you don’t consider yourself a professional or a teacher, but I need help! I just got my first drum carder (it was found in a barn, in bad shape, I got a new drum and licker in). I just used it for the first time on a fleece I’ve used and successfully spun with handmade rolags, and some alpaca from the free table from my guild. The problem is I ended up with so many neps, and from 210 grams of fiber, I only ended up with 90 grams of usable batts and 120 grams of some usable fiber but it was mixed with so many neps it seems unusable. Has this ever happened to you? I’ve never used a drum carder at all so I don’t know if it’s me, or the fiber, or the carder!

The color work well because it looks like a floral shrub, like hydrangeas or something. They look lovely together!

My great grandma taught me to do the continental knit stitch through the backloop. That was all I knew about knitting for years. I taught myself to crochet this year through youtube then I did the same with spinning about 1,5months later. When I later learned to knit in the same manner, I learned regular continental. But by that time I had already started plying my yarns Z twist (Clockwise) bc of crochet. I didn't want to bother switching back and fourth on which direction I spun my yarns, so I wrapped my needles the eastern way. Now I have apparently gone full circle and I'm once again knitting through the back loop just like my great grandma taught me 😂😂.

I think YA novelist Kenneth Oppel would agree with your belief on the afterlife, as the ending of his book series absolutely crushed me with. <3

The finished product reminds me of the little butterflies that were visiting your garden! It’s like you’ve unintentionally pulled inspiration from them.

Was that a bit of Queen you were singing? Not one of their well known songs, either. I wholeheartedly approve 😂

i use dpn for socks , the socks look great

Your scarf is sooooo pretty! And the colour suits you very well. Really like these skinnier scarves. They take no time to knit and are ideal for when you need a break from larger projects. Think the idea of rolling the dice was gold! 😜❤️❤️❤️

you can make an earwarmer headband

🤧I love these colours combination, and hope that it will grow on you and you're gonna actually wear it, because it's so gorgeous and really makes a classic pattern to stand in the crowd of similar projects!

PK patterns are a good base for adding your own colorwork, I've used a few of them with my own intarsia charts. My worst/best one is an image of a man with big tits bursting out of his shirt 😂, knit onto her Aros Sweater pattern. It's an iconic panel of my favorite manga character.

ONLY FIVE projects haunting you? Wow, congrats!

Wat voor merk is dit mooie spinnewiel enis dit een spinnewiel voor een beginner of kan ik dan beter voor ander kijken

Fingerless mitts, that's what I vote you make. I like the Maker maker cozy handwarmers by Emily Bolduan. They are fast and easy to make.

Came out great, love it. I have not done the Sophie scarf yet either, guess I am not cool either. 🤣 You may not be a story teller but you keep people engaged really well, I wish I could do that as well as you do.

Hello, I am from the Netherlands and found you on youtube today. I have been binge watching your video's today while steaming and winding some of my own handspun yarn. I enjoy your video's alot. This one makes me want to knit a Sophies shawl as well. I have not made one (so I will look for the pattern later) yet. I am inspired by your chaos chenanigans and the D20 to decide how many rows to knit. I will borrow that idea and use it myself. I have a lot of hand spun yarn, that I do not know what to use it for. Thank you for making this beautiful chaos content and keep it up!! ❤

This was great!! I see that you have added some new video editing techniques, and this was a really fun video to watch. The scarf is fun. I have been making simple fingerless gloves for Christmas presents, and I bet you could make one or two pairs out of your remaining Polwarth. Also, I am a huge fan of pompoms and tassels, so maybe you could make a pom pom garland out of it?

Silly is just what we need around death. It’s so important to talk about it!! Thanks for sharing.

Also, this is a very cute little scarf! And still more polwarth left! Maybe you can make one of those cute headbands with a twist in the front?

I currently only have one (big) knitting project and one spinning project in progress! I need to change that!! Thanks for the inspiration and the scientific support to cast on a new project!

I love the idea of combing RPGs with knitting!

Those colors together are gorgeous! It reminds me of the garden with the last fruits in autumn and the snow that is freezing them (it’s snowing in Switzerland at the moment) 😊 I think a hat, a balaclava or some fingerless gloves would be lovely with it!

I think you need to wear this while playing Pathfinder now. It's your lucky crit role scarf now lol

I love adding beads to all kinds of simple projects. 🫧 Don't know how you handled all the yarn ends, but have you ever heard of the "Weavin' Steven'? 😉 What about knitting a little pouch? 😊

Logwood is just as difficult to wash out as indigo, hence the saying...make it blue. Just wash it in hot water and it will be smaller again

I made a child’s flax sweater with all-over ACAB colorwork in shades of pink and purple

Interesting textures are great for weaving. I used spun sari silk to weave winter hats

Maybe some wrist cuffs? Love the colours & final look!

I love the pink and green! Loved this chaotic episode 😊.

Adding my vote as a new viewer (thanks r/handspinning for sending me here) for the idea of fingerless gloves / mittens. My hands have been feeling pretty chilly going out recently here in north west England!

Hello! Chaoticophy? Chaoticaphy? I Adore this word😍. Have a fabulous today, Steph

Thank you for all the Pathfinder talk reminding me I still need to go and level up my own Pathfinder character before our next session, whoops The colour combination is so lovely and bold! I may or may not be filing it away as inspiration for my very first spinning project I'm planning to embark on sometime in the next two weeks (I'll be blending a colour scheme from our supply of solid commercial wool on our drum carder, I'm so excited). It's very spring and cheerful! Also, I love the texture of it, the lumpiness and the variation between the two yarns! Looks like something I'd love running my hand along I'm not a scarf-making-person (I have two scarves and that's as much as I need, really, if not one more), but if I was I'd 100% try the d20 method for stripes, it looks like a really fun and math-free way of adding variety!

What about another classic - Musselburgh hat and again in combination with another yarn. Also - did you ever come across bannana socks? I would like to see hem done, but I don´t have the curage yet... but I bet you do.

As someone who knits a little but doesn't use ravelry, it's actually always funny when knitters drop names and assume everyone knows what it is. The secret lore. Anyway, the scarf tied as a headband looked really cute, so what about an actual headband in the same colours to match the scarf and protect your ears when you're outside in the cold?

You obviously need fingerless swamp mitts in your life that keep you warm when planting things in your garden. Just joking but i think they would go well. Or a nice headband. I just knitted some small shawls and gifted them all. I loved the 1 skein pluma morada shawl by Joji. It's so simple to knit without getting boring and lightweight. Loved it Knit a turtle dove last year but not a size i like so i gifted it. Still have the laulu shawl by sari in my library. Have a great day

Awesome 🤯I just unraveling my Sophie Scarf,thanks for Stoping me🤍🙏

Yeah gurl get that dopamine 😅❤

In my opinion, you are a cool kid! Maybe you could use the last bits of yarn to make some fingerless gloves? Or you could knit small leaves or something like that, and attach them to earring hangers? The dice gods are like that... In my last D&D session I rolled four natural 1's across two different dice! It was very funny though, because my character had just picked up a cursed druid staff that is definitely absolutely not evil, (ahem), so it was like the staff immediately made her just a bit ~off~.

I think with practice all types of spinning are efficient. I once saw a woman riding a donkey who was working with a drop spindle. She has to be very sure, otherwise she would have to constantly go down. you could have simply put your distaff in the oven. It's a shame that your camera doesn't focus when you hold something in front of the camera. I can understand your enthusiasm for the museum. Even in the castle when you were sitting at the window. I immediately thought, how many people were sitting there and spinning?

That came out very unique and quirky, and I love it! You should wear it. Also, you seem like someone I would love being friends with!

You’re crazy! ( IN A GOOD WAY ;))) I really enjoy watching you…. I’m actually dying and spinning polwarth, merino, and silk in purples, pinks and chartreuse color way. I’ll be knitting a sweater, my own design. From So. Calif I wish you happy knitting and spinning shenanigans.

My dear, you are in fact quite the story teller.

I think fingerless mitts would be good to go with the scarf and socks because they can help keep your hands warm and have your fingers free for spinning

Thanks for the analysis! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?

"Take cult items and just make them goblin stuff." Sounds like an excellent idea. I'd go for a hat with the left over Polworth, with lace weight yarn you should be able to win the Yarn Chicken Challenge.

You are a very cool kid. Sorry you missed your saving throw on the back story, but what you did give to us was wonderful.

How about a pair of mitts? 😊 The polworth that keeps on giving

So stunning - that polwarth is really going a long way, huh? Now I feel like it should be held double with another yarn and turned into a hat!
