About frogging blankets (or anything): frog with a ball winder

i would like to use the yarn type combo foe the eva cardigan and wondered if you could give ma a ballpark of how much of each to buy. please thank you. love your knits n videos

Wonderful knits Do you work or just knit? You often mention an office, are you allowed to knit there? You have chosen beautiful designs and colours. I recommend that you see Teti Lutsak's designs and perhaps try one of them, she is fenomenal. Happy new year and happy knitting.

I had a similar experience with the Lenu hood listed as being DK and being way off gauge

I just found your podcast and I really liked it because many of your finished pieces were ones I had not heard of! They are beautiful!

All of your projects are so gorgeous. I especially love the Moby sweater.

I agree with all your choices except for project bags which are a weakness. I love Atenti bags which are an indulgence. I have a collection of gorgeous bags and move my project from one bag to another as the project grows. Having a lovely bag makes me feel good and in my mind, shows respect for the project that I’m knitting. I cannot understand why anyone would put their precious knitting project in a grocery bag. However, I agree with the rest of your ideas and I have no interest in purchasing Needle sets. I would rather have a fixed circular needle for a project anyway as the way I knit causes interchangeable needles to come undone no matter what. I can also relate to your comment about single skeins as I am not a sock knitter. . I’m trying to use up my collection of single skeins knitting baby items as gifts.

Me thinking you were going to say “Finish what I’m working on before casting on something new” but no YAY! I felt so seen because I came home from the yarn store today and immediately started swatching with a new yarn that was giving me all the feels even though I just cast on something else yesterday (which I also love and am excited about!!!) 😅🎉

I think you are fast! That’s a lot of sweaters. Did you forget the Moby Sweater Man for your father-in-law? I would have spent most of the year on that one…….

Thanks for another wonderful video! So glad I found you. I love petiteknit patterns but now I will have to check out Ozetta too😂. I have a lot of knitting time on my hands now since I broke my leg just before the new year. Its a complicated fracture that will take at least 3 months to heal. Still getting my head around that. Love and best regards from Christel in The Netherlands!

What about the Norma sweater from My favorite things. It is a bit like the Terracotta sweater or the porcelain sweater.. they are alle three colour work but not all over colour work ❤

Michelle, what beautiful knits! I love all the colours you chose, especially the green sweater! I really enjoyed seeing all your makes and hearing about them. You are easy to listen to and are a natural in front of the camera.

Currently, I am knitting the Hebrides Hood as I had lots of worsted weight acrylic yarn in stash. I am making this for my grandma and needed it to be low maintenance. My mother just saw it a few moments ago and has also requested for a hood so I will be making more. Even though I thought I met gauge, I ended up with more rows which meant I picked up more stitches for the finished front edge. Not a big deal though.

I weave, not knit, my homewares. I despise mohair. I used it in one sweater and I rarely wear it because it is so ITCHY!!! I actually agree with you in most things.

Your SIL’s sweater - did you block it before you sewed it together?

Joann bags work really well for a $1 - $2 dollars.

You've convinced me, I now have lots of Ozetta in the queue. Also, you look so attractive in the colors you choose for yourself!

Michelle, I always love your episodes! And since I started following you maybe late spring, I’m getting to catch up on some items you’ve made that I have not seen you talk about. I have to say I really think you should wear that green sweater a whole lot more!!! I think that color is perfect for you. And regarding the color red being a neutral: I had my colors done recently and when you look at the primary colors, yellow blue and red red actually goes both ways. It goes into the yellow colors and it goes into the blue colors so I think that’s what you kind of were hitting on when you said you think of it as a neutral. People in any color way can wear reds! Last note, I totally agree with you on a single layer collar. I just think the double layer collars look more professional and store-bought. And I want my sweaters to look so good that people cannot tell if I made it or if I bought it. So I’m with you all the way sister! Happy new year and happy Knitting! (I may have already told you this and please forgive me if I’m repeating myself, but I have started my own channel. I would love for you to stop by. You are in my Top 5 episode! @MamieGraceDesigns)

Curious: I’d like to make the Moonset Tee but out of a DK weight yarn. Do you think using the pattern for the sweater and shortening the sleeves will work, or do the proportions differ enough to make that a bad idea?

This is my ideal "Everything I Knit" video! I love these videos as a way to get inspiration and discover new channels. But often when I watched these videos from RUclipsrs I followed along with, they are very redundant and focus on too many details that have already been discussed at length, like construction. I love how you emphasized how the garment has worn and what you like and don't like about both the pattern and the yarn. Although I've been watching your channel for most of this year and have seen these projects before, I feel like I learned even more about these projects! Thank you for the thoughtful video, wishing you well.

Your knits are very lovely! I find it super interesting that you can make your colour palette look both neutral and also colourful ☺️ Hope to see more of your knitting in 2025

Seeing your peggy sweater again really made me want to make one for myself too!! It just looks so beautiful, especially in that amazing green! 🥰

I made a 2 color Basket that was made with lion brand fisherman yarn. I practiced using both hands, (I usually throw). Once the project was done, it was felted and any areas that may not have been sweater perfect, disappeared with felting! Love your episodes, thank you!

Love your aesthetic and that you wear all your knits . I encourage you to embrace your Ravelry projects page - it doesn’t actually take that much time once it’s set up as it’s all there easy to fill in. Whenever I start a project, when I have all the ball bands handy I fill it in and then once I’m finished I weigh what’s left and amend the amounts and the needle sizes I ended up using. And this is so helpful when buying yarn and deciding what size to make , I see you use the same yarns over and this way you can easily tell how much to buy. I wish everyone put in the amount they used, most don’t but it’s really helpful when planning. Give it a go xx

Finding your RUclips was such a gift this last year! I really enjoy your topics, point of view and dry humor! Hope you have a fabulous 2025!

Hello Michelle, I allways love your videos. You choose beautiful patterns and very beautiful colourchoices! I live in The Netherlands and cannot always buy the yarns you used, so that is a pity sometimes. I also think you are funny, love your humor. I laughed outloud when you said that you feared that you might look like a medieval executioner. I do not think you do, by the way.

My first colorwork stranded sweater is from Jessica McDonald. She has very detailed patterns and videos to go along with them. I had never done stranded and have tried English and Continental style knitting. Doing the one color in each hand wasn’t as big a deal as I thought it would be. Just have to take some time to get the muscle memory going. Either way the outcome is what’s important. Good luck with your colorwork journey!

Thank you so much for another thoughtful video!

Happy New Year! I made a sweater with Cascade 220, not superwash, and it pills like crazy!

It was so great seeing your beautiful projects again. 🧶 Excellent color choices!

Oh Michelle, I have the complete opposite problem! I have about 10 lingering wips that I'm determined to frog or finish before I cast on anything new because they are stressing me out!! I also have enough yarn in my stash to work completely from it without buying anything new for about two years, so that's what I'm going to do. I love these intentions for you and look forward to see how they pan out. I think the Alpine Bloom hat is a favorite among knitters for beginner colorwork. Happy knitting!

Admittedly I had to restart the video. Your voice is so soothing i fell asleep 😂 Your garments are beautiful. I really like a lot of your color choices. Ozetta is in my to do list this year. Her designs look so clean and I feel like wouldn't succumb to obsolete fashion. Looking forward to keeping up with your 2025 knits. 🫶

Loved your intentions, would really enjoy knitting in a coffee shop with you and chatting about them!

I'm an English knitter too, but I love to do two-handed colorwork. Using the left hand for colorwork isn't difficult once you get used to it. You could try it out by knitting a square Continental style.

Hi Michelle, thank you for the video. The garments you knitted are beautiful and very well made. Thank you for your comments on the patternes: very helpful.

Probably the reason it pilled so much was because it is superwash. I use Cascade 220 all the time in non-superwash, it really does not pill, but then I am not knitting for a 3 year old either.

🫶💫😊 ditto on multiple cast-ons and yet another ... to 'spark joy' and hummm along RE: colorwork- several yrs ago, first saw Andrea of frty knitting wearing M.Wallin 'Blossom' ... ( more sort of intarsia work ..) . Then saw Andrea's interview with Schoolhouse Press - bought the DVDs of Elizabeth Zimmerman --- engaging, fearless ... knit 1st colorwork hat - fun, easy THEN, invested in M.Wallin Fairisle - Unique Masterful designs - WELL WRITTEN patterns and Charts and videos Completely complimentary yarn colors and Perfect wools for colorwork oh, Marie herself does colorwork by alternately picking up one yarn, then the other Dive In 😊💫🫶 You're already on your way with being drawn to it

Thank you so much for this. I’ve spent the last two months slogging my way through a long sleeved fingering weight raglan sweater because I felt obligated to be monogamous so it would eventually get done. I’ve now decided to knit whatever I want to and have cast on a cute hat and a new sweater on size 9 needles that I’ve been dying to start! Yay!🎉😂❤

I'm inspired to knit an Ozetta pattern from your makes. I also want to knit a saddle shoulder sweater this year as I've been seeing a lot of people talking about how much they love them. I love watching these videos and particularly listening to the designs people wear the most! So glad you are feeling better and you were able to go on your trip. All the best!

Think I need to try an ozetta pattern this year. Great video. Happy new year!

You have most likely finished the Moby for a man and I hope the length turned out well but I still want to say that a pattern is probably supposed to be a kind of average to different sizes. You need to take measures from the recipient or ask them to measure an old sweater for the length or maybe ask some one else to do it if it´s a secret gift. We all have our personal body type so one just needs to modify the pattern. It´s not easy when you can´t try it on on the go.

I’m a flicker right hand knitter I found the tutorial by very pink knits just what I needed to get over my fear I tried to use both hands but couldn’t keep my tension correct

I knit both Peggy and Storm sweaters with folded neckline and then unpicked it and did the single layer neckband instead. I really dislike the folded one. It only looks good on people with skinny long necks. Otherwise it looks like a sausage around your neck and is very unflattering. So yeah, if you don't like the neckband, just re-do it - it takes an hour of your time and then you'll like the sweater much more :)

Wow! What beautiful makes. I think you are fairly prolific given that you work and two small children. I think that I too, could become obsessed with both Petite Knits and Ozetta.

Thanks)

I am new to watching your channel. You are an amazing knitter. You are incredible at RUclips. Are you a professional presenter or performer? You are so natural on camera. I hope you have fun doing this because I’m hoping you’ll be around for a long time.

I also have a "long torso" and I appreciate you mentioning that you do and how that comes into play with your knitting garments. Helpful ! My long torso definitely is a characteristic that I have had to take into account with fashion and garments. Lovely selection of knits. Thank you, and Happy New Year!

What a wonderful collection🤩

Love, love all your makes!! 🤩😍🤩😍👌👌 thank you for sharing your experience. You inspired me to knit ozeta patterns. Happy New Year 🎊🎈🎆 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I’m swatching for the Robinia sweater, it will basically be my first colorwork project, I hope it’s not a terribly confusing pattern 😬
