If you’re hoping for some sweater weather in Michigan it’s already here! Midday is super hot but the Evenings and mornings are perf shawl/sweater weather (no jackets yet) for me atm

I’m a relatively new knitter so have made a few Sophie scarves & a shawl with lace rows. To keep track of the stitch count & increases, MS Excel has been my friend. I’ve extrapolated out what the stitches would be with the increases & it gives myself something to tick off as I go so I can keep track. May be over the top but I’ve found it to be a useful tool & eliminates any stress for me. Beautiful shawl, I love the natural colours and the fade from light to dark.

Love the roll neck modification! How many rows of stockinette did you knit after the ribbing?

So missed seeing your face on my screen ❤

I hid Ranunculus in my Ravelry years ago so I wouldn’t have to see it every day. Drove me crazy how it looked so sloppy, droopy and ill-fitting on almost everyone. One size DOES NOT fit all. However, I’ve seen a few knitters recently do a wonderful job with gauge swatches and yarn choices to get it to fit well. It looks great on you. Good job!

I don’t agree with some of the other comment. If you can fix the neck, you should. The best part of making your own garments is to get custom fit.

Great episode. Please share when you find out how to get stains out.

Wonderful episode! Have fun at the cabin. New subscriber here. Happy knitting 💚🧶💚

Your shawl is lovely, but I agree I cannot get to wrap them so they look good. Someone demonstrate them please.

Love the fact that you give honest feedback on the yarns that you use. Always enjoy the joy and happiness that you bring to the community. Enjoy vacation

Just fyi, I add strand of mohair to the rustic cooks. Not only does it give it strength to prevent holes it adds a huge softness. The whimsical sock collective #1 uses plots Lopi and mohair that takes just. Few hours to make and is so warm and comfy

I would Google 'how to style an asymmetrical shawl' because there are lots of lovely people out there willing to show us all the options! 🤩

Whatever you want to do with the neckline is up to you and your comfort both in knitting and wearing the sweater. I would caution you against using the word heirloom to describe anything that you’re making. Stuff is just stuff and adding emotional weight to something doesn’t change that. You seem fairly young, so by the time people are going through your things and deciding what they want to keep, that sweater could be long gone. Over the past couple of years my family has had to deal with the estates of several family members. My experience has let me know that the people left behind have different memories and put different meaning on items than the deceased person may have envisioned. I didn’t keep any of my great grandmother’s embroidery because it was fragile, stained with age and unusable. I kept her hand made, wooden embroidery hoop and it hangs on the wall in my craft closet and every time I open the door I think of her and the ties that connect us. My mother made a quilted wall hanging of whales as a remembrance of a family trip to Alaska. She gave it to my son. He likes it, but he doesn’t truly appreciate it. He wanted to keep a hand written poem that was scribbled on a piece of scratch paper. It reminds him of so many characteristics of his grandma. Sorry so long, but people need to stop talking about making heirloom pieces and perhaps more accurately describe them as their dream projects. It’s your dream ambition, not anyone else’s.

The hanui is lovely but pills to billy-o; knitted mine on 4.5mm needles for reference

Please dont try to do the collar again! I tryed this with a sock and it ended in a total mess!! You can`t get the stitches again on the needles correctly, unless it is knitted bottom up. This is the reason, why I ALWAYS start my sweaters with a provisional cast on at the neck. Then you can change the width or the length of the collar afterwords. I think your ribbing looks good. I would not change anything! Love the pattern!! 🤩

Before you cut into that beautiful sweater, practice on a swatch first. It is not easy to deal with knitting from the opposite direction that you knit it in. It might be impossible to redo the cast on as a bind off, in a seamless manner. Or maybe buy a sweater at a thrift store and perform surgery on it, so you understand what you would be taking on. I like the elastic idea ( if necessary after another block.) Enjoy your podcast!thanks for sharing your beautiful creations.

I'm enjoying my WIP down weekend while watching. 🧶💜

Oooh, pls. show kitty cat! So cute meow!

Love the Snow Crocus sweater, agree on the collar, maybe you could pick up the rib stitches, add a little more rib if you like, then your bindoff, maybe the roll/Zimmerman sew bindoff like the other sweater. Would that be too weird? I think you'd be happier. I love a rolled edge, softer than the rest of the structure. But, whatever you do, it's going to be a beautiful cabled sweater.

It is nice to spend some time with you again. Have a great time at the lake.

Thanks for your knitting vlog, I do enjoy it! I'm in East Tennessee and my sister is in Nashville. One of the things I love about knitting is the variety of projects, stitches, patterns and options. I stay interested. Great idea to knit both socks at the same time, I have only made a few pairs and the 2nd sock is always a slog for me, but it's a useless knit without it. 😁

Did I miss it, or where there no picture of the luxe cardigan 😅

So so happy to see you today!! We are coming to Nashville on the 11th for Anthony to participate in the Ryan Centennial festivities. He graduated in 1958!! I was at St. Bernard Academy. But you know all that. I would love to catch up with you and meet in person!! How might I find you? Just let me know! ❤ Angela

Helloooo ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 0:27

It's so great to see you again. 💜Your projects look amazing!🧶

what a treat to catch up with you! ❤❤❤

I’m glad you’re back! Thanks for the podcast. I’ve only knit the DRK everyday socks so far, and definitely recommend. I love Andrea’s tutorials and so many of her patterns.

So good to see you. I was beginning to worry about you. I need to see this blue yarn you ended up with. Glad you made it to Artful Ewe.

I’ve made the DRK Everyday Socks multiple times. They’re fun, fit well, and the fleegle heel is amazing. Beware, they look very odd while you’re knitting but it all works out. 😂

Good for you for taking space for yourself! Missed seeing you on here and glad you’re back ❤️

I've definitely missed you in this space and so happy to see/hear you today! That shawl is exquisite and I'm totally in love with your DRK Everyday, which has a handspun quality due to the variation of wool. I recently discovered Lavender Lune at Flock and it is truly special. xoxo

Glad to see you again! My favorite Andrea Mowry sweater is Wool and Honey. I knit it in the exact same color and yarn she used for the design and I love it!

So lovely to catch up with you, Hailey! I’ll definitely have to hop in the DMs and find out more of your lawn mowing/watering/weeding hot takes! 😂

Love your DRK Everyday sweater! I started it and enjoyed it very much, but the increases on the yoke were visible. What increases did you use? Wondering if I hold a Suri alpaca with my yarn that may help hide the increases a little? 🤷🏼‍♀️ Thank you!

Welcome back! Great to hear your voice and see Miss Sweet Georgia!

So glad to see you back! I am sorry it’s been a rocky time for you. I always look forward to seeing what you’re knitting!

Hi, this is the first time catching your podcast and I really like how much detail you give, and your experience knitting your projects. I too knit the DRK Everyday sweater and at the time I was a newer knitter so ordered exactly the same colour and wool required from her specs. I absolutely love how it fits me and immediately made me an Andrea fan 🎉it is still my favourite one mostly because of the fit and it feels like a comfy sweatshirt. You’ll probably get a lot of wear with the shawl even though it is heavier than you anticipated- it looks very cozy.

Welcome back! We all need time off once in a while! Funny, my husband is at Lowe's right now buying a new lawn mower because ours broke after 40+ years of good service! Love the shawl!!

I always enjoy your podcasts..so glad you are back! Reading and knitting are 2 of my passions.

It's wonderful to see you and your projects on here again! I miss you lots. Exploring WA with you was so much fun!!! P.S. I spy a matching shorts moment 😂❤

So happy for a new video! ♡

It's really beautiful!

❤ Lovely podcast. Thank you. How many grams, please, did your lovely Party Line scarf take?

Thank you for your comments... tried and true ideas make better knitting choices.

Can I ask a silly question.? Fairly new knitter and I am starting the mosaic chart on the Artus shawl. I am beginning the second row and starting left to right and I have knitted the three end stitches that aren’t on chart, and it states to make one first then slip next and there is white stitch there not grey due to end of first row you make one. I am so confused

You did great 👍🏼 Nice having you back. Hope your folks are doing well.

Thank you! ❤ New sub!

Just found you and subscribed. You are a delight to watch. I definitely enjoy the shorter vlogs. I don’t have a 2 or 1-1/2 hr to sit and watch a podcast. Thank you. Diane from Boston

The shape of the shawl is standard. Your edge on the Joji shawl is a little tight if it’s an i-cord. The curl shape is correct and the desired shape and curl for that shape of a shawl.

I'm new to your videos. I will watch the other five or whatever you have. Great job. I hope others feel safe sharing your feelings and how and why. Thanks so much; I subscribed.
