lol I found your channel (and other smaller ones) through that craftsnark post! I'm not anti petite knit, but I unterstand the fatigue of watching bigger knitting podcasts of different creators that consist mostly of pk patterns. I think it's less about liking a certain designer than seeing the same thing over and over again! love your podcast! (and james n watts patterns!)
totally agree! I don't rock with petite knit so I really struggle to find podcasters who don't *only* knit her stuff. Variety is the spice of life! hahah
First of all, love the fit in this one, your best vest is so pretty and the styling rocks! The pink nails make me so jealous, I cant wear anything on my nails right now (in training at a hospital position) and they are the perfect shade of pink 🥹 Sending you all the good vibes for big changes. When you know, you know. Thank you for sharing your makes, it made for some excellent vibes for me to have some self care knitting. Cheers :)
Grace, your comments are always sweet as pie and give me a big big smile! I always thought it was so odd people couldn't have nails (my acrylics have never chipped once, but then again I do have the best nail tech ever!)- but I know some places that don't allow nails allow lash extensions so that always makes me confused! I hope when you're all trained up you can have perfect pink nails!
First thing: I am so with you about colours. As a redhead who loves wearing ALL the colours (especially pink!) it really drives me nuts when folks have somehow convinced themselves they can't wear something. I had a person in one of my knitting classes tell me they love my colour choices but could never use the same palette for themselves because they just want to fade into the background and be invisible and holy smokes that made me so, so, so sad and actually pretty angry. Wear what you want! I get so riled up when I hear folks not being confident about themselves. GAH! Second Thing: I need to make a bunny hat like PRONTO. I have some Spincycle Plump that I tried knitting into a ribbed beanie but my gauge was too tight for what I wanted. I think it would look really wacky as a bunny hat -- are the ears essentially little hats that poke up from the crown like slug/snail eyeballs? I need to make one!
just finished watching your latest pod- obsessed with your colour choice. It's truly perfect! And I'm glad I have a redhead's approval in my dislike of the season colour theory!!! ty~
Ahhhh! You're reading ACOTAR!!! You know much I love those books ❤ OMG Elton's face when you picked him up lol! He looks like he knows he's made a mistake 😂 I love your Best Vest, did you marl the colours or knit them single? I want to knit down my stash this year, but I'm feeling personally victimized by all my favourite yarn dyers -- they're all coming out with collections I want to buy from! 😭
they're marled with a hot pink! And I totally agree- knitting from stash is haaaaaard because the indie dyers are putting in the WORK this year hahah I've been hiding my ACOTAR reading from you because I wanted to surprise you when we knit together again but I'm only at the third book! I'm taking a break from them because I don't want to finish and the end of book three was satisfying enough that I don't have to stress about my favourite characters hehe
If you ever make it down to Pennsylvania in the United States I will tattoo KNIT PURL on your knuckles in exchange for one skein of your favorite Canadian yarn!
A) That yarn you spun is absolutely stellar and I NEED to see what you make with it. B) That dress/vest combo is amazing. C) Can someone please explain the petite knit thing? Pardon me for asking, I live under a rock. D) The socks WIP gives very much sock monkey vibes and I love it.
you are SO right about the "season" color theory. i'm so sick of people who avoid colors bcuz of it !! Just wear what makes you happy!!! who cares if some imaginary term says you don't suit lavender? if the color makes you happy, just wear it!!! rahhh!! (I apologize for yelling)
Love your vibes, love your energy. Can't wait to watch more!
happy to have ya!
I absolutely loveddd the "flattering colors" tangent. I was basically yelling YES out loud to everything you said.
ty for reminding my deep autumn ass to wear some color every once in a while cause I wear so much black 😂 yet my owala is blindingly hot pink
I love your podcast and your colorful choices. Enough with the beige and grey ❤ I love James work too. So cool
So happy to have found you! I've been hunting for colourful joyful knitting. Thanks for the great podcast 💕
I love your podcasts!
