    Knitting is so good for your mental health! I'm in the office all day so knitting is only done at night when I'm not too tired. Your Feldspar Tee came out beautiful!

      Thank you so much! Yes I totally agree... days without knitting a few rows are never great ;)

    You are quite right when you say that it is difficult to knit the first
    few rows after joining sleeves to a body. It is kind of like trying to
    knit around a figure-eight shape, and so those short needle tips would
    be ideal. I recently finished reading The Handmaid's Tale and the word
    you used to describe it is exactly the word I had in mind after reading
    the book ... shocking. It certainly is a shocking premise, but a
    surprisingly easy read despite being a Margaret Atwood work. Thanks for
    this lovely episode.

    Your Feldspar top is beautiful, the yarn has such a luminous quality to it. All your names are beautiful as always.

    Another fun episode, Anastasia! I wish I was as good as you at choosing colors that suit me. That coral pink Feldspar tee with the touches of the same colour in your makeup - you look summery and just radiant! Thank you for showing the top I knitted for the KAL - it made my day and I had to wear it again, even just to walk the dog 😁

    Hello Anastasia! Always so nice listening to your vlogs filled with lovely knits and ideas. Love your Feldspar Tee in that pink color. So cute babycardigans you made and your friend will be so happy receiving it. I also like the idea of sharing some of the finished garments from your Free your summer knits. Lots of great knitting and new ideas. Thank you! I also sometimes struggel with joining the sleeves to the body so thanks for the needle tips. Lots of knitting greatings from Sweden.

    Your Feldspar Tee looks so beautiful! I really want to knit it for next summer. I know exactly what you meant with struggling to knit around the arms when joing sleeves in the bottom-up construction. I've just experienced that in my last project and these tiny needles look like such a great gadget which can help solving the issue!
    Once again, thank you for the shoutout! 😘

    You couldn't be arsed to match the sleeves - oh my, thank you for the laugh! Those baby cardigans are so cute - love your yarn choice. I'm sorry you've had such a hard time recently in your personal life - same here. Knitting is so centering and something to cling to for me during those times: I hope it did the same for you. ❤

    I have watched all your podcast episodes in the last 3 days and I have enjoyed them a lot 😊 I love Lily Kate France patterns I have just finished the Anyday Vest I might just have to get the Poisoned Apple top pattern. I am also working on a summer top hopefully I can finish it before 10 of September. I leave in Melbourne Australia and we are in a hush lockdown here at the moment knitting and crocheting is keeping me happy 😃

    Hi Anastasia,
    I love seeing your amazing yarn hauls. The poison apple sweater knit in colors is gorgeous, but it turns wonderfully elegant in white! Lots of WOW factor going on; I see it with narrow-legged pants (Audrey Hepburn) and flats or even kitten heels. You would turn every man's head. Baby knits are so much fun, and you pick the cutest little items to make. Now about the cool weather you have...I will give you all the sweltering hot, humid weather you want for just one week of your weather. :D If I could, I would move to the UK in a second.
    Have a wonderful weekend,
    xoxo's Sandie

      Hi Sandie,
      Thank you so much for your lovely comment! You have amazing styling ideas there, I will have to try out a few of those 😋😉 I wear jeans and sneakers everyday so I might have to change that 😅
      How about we swap for a week? I miss the heat, and I promise you, you'll get enough of cold weather here in the UK 😋 Have a lovely weekend 🤗

    I love the blue of your short needles! I am like you in this - needle obsessed and have one for each need. For me, the right tool for the job makes the job to well and nicely and I'm all for that. I have a Lykke shortie set and I love them. I also love to use Lykke 12" needles for sleeves - fantastic.

    Funny, i've knitted the poisoned apple top in the same colour now for my niece and finished it a few days ago. She loves it! I did it in size 3 in pink for my younger one und now in size 2 for the older one. Great pattern! Ravelry Javor1945.
