    Hey 😊 do you have any tips for the neckline to be more stretchy? Unfortunately when I knitted the neckline on to the rest of the blouse it became ro small to pull it over the head.. thank you!

    • @myoldsoul
      @myoldsoul 2 месяца назад

      @@lh774 hmm, good question! I actually have to unravel the neckline of the sweater in this video because I can’t get it over his head anymore. I think I just need to cast on more stitches than what the pattern says. One thing to keep in mind is that if the actual neckline of the sweater is too small, it probably can’t be fixed without unraveling the whole sweater. I can’t think of any way to make the knitting more flexible without adding more stitches from the start. But I’ll think about it and get back to you if I come up with something clever!🥰

    I just found you today and watched all of your podcasts. I love it and hope that you will be posting more. I did have a comment about the double Sunday yarn. The outfit was so cute I know you must’ve been terribly disappointed in how it behaved. I went to Ravelry and looked at the yarn and it has such an incredibly high rating, that is so weird. Did you call the company and tell them what happened?

    • @myoldsoul
      @myoldsoul Год назад

      Thank you so much for your nice comment! I know it is so weird. Everybody loves Petiteknit (me included), but can people be too forgiving regarding this yarn? When i posted a story on Instagram I got a lot of comment saying they too experienced a lot of pilling with this yarn. So I am not alone. I have not contacted the company, I know pilling can be worse on some people than other. Maby this is just not the yarn for me! :)

    very beautiful sweaters! would love to see the other ones too(: I´m curious to know what you think of the holst supersoft -would you say its "rustic" yarn? I'm thinking about buying some cones but I´m more so used to really commercial, soft yarn like Drops.

    • @myoldsoul
      @myoldsoul 2 года назад

      Maby I can show some more sweaters? I do have some beautiful sweater that I never wear and some Norwegian traditional knits:) yes the Holst supersoft is a more rustic yarn. But I am not sensitive to itchi wool. And I always wash the garments two times before use, because it gets a lot softer after wssh:) I actully have used it for a jacket for my boy when he was 6 months old and he was not bothered eather:) And there are so many beautiful colors to choose from! Hope I answered your question:)
