Agree, just making brings happy contentment. I agree the sweater is not your vibe, but it turned out so beautifully. The pattern is super cute. I like jewel tones, too.😊
Thank you so much 🥰🥰
I am so glad that things are going better now. I have thought about you so much when you said last month, "What are we going to eat?! I can't eat anything!!"
That’s so nice of you 🥹
Wonderful episode! I know nothing about making bread but absolutely enjoyed hearing you talk about it. I've been working on socks but I might try making that cardigan for my daughter. It's cute! Nova picked fun colors
Your daughter would love that cardigan I'm sure! I just finished Nova's and she has been wearing it constantly for the last two days.
Your cardigan turned out perfect! I avoid, at ALL costs, any project i have to join. It eliminates a lot of pretty projects, but it helps maintain what little sanity I have left.
I don’t mind a little seaming but this was A LOT. Too much for me! Now I’ll avoid that next time 😂
I love the sweater. The colors are lovely. I would NEVER make it as I Hate finishing and sewing squares together. You did an excellent job making the sweater. A mini sweater for Nova is going to be adorable!
I don’t mind a little finishing but GEEZ lol there was so much on this cardigan! 😂
@@TheCozyCottageCrochet Have you sold it yet? If not I may be interested.
@@melhartley8376 I haven’t sold it yet! I’d love for you to have it if you want it. I just want it to be loved and worn instead of sitting in a drawer
@@TheCozyCottageCrochet I would love it, it is my size and It would get much more wear as I live in NC. How do we work this out?
@@melhartley8376 email me! Thecozycottagecrochet AT gmail DOT com. I can get your info there 🥳
How did I not see this video til today?! Good to see you, parenting is hard but your doing great. Peace and love
thank you so much for watching!
Love your videos ..thanks for all the smiles in the hard times .. love all your yarn makes
Aww thank you 🥰🥰
Your Daisy Cardigan is beautiful Hannah, but like you, I’d doubt I’d wear it even here in Vermont as I my body temperature runs warm to begin with and then there’s the whole hot flash time-of-life thing going on--sorry TMI! Lovely to see you as always-can’t wait to see Princess Nova in her new cardigan! Stay well and keep finding those small pockets of time for crafting and creating-it’s a balm for the soul!❤
Thank you! Yes it is super warm even for up north! I just finished Nova’s cardi and she’s been wearing it a lot which fills my heart
Hello Hannah, this sweater is so pretty, but when would you wear it, evenings at the beach, love the colors you choose. Love your binder books. I’m going to try and make sour dough bread, love it! Good to see you again, can’t wait to see Nova’s sweater done. Right now, I’m taking a little break from crocheting, but honestly can’t wait to get back to it. But I’m holding out for next week! Have a great evening! ❤🤗🙏
Good luck on your bread adventures! I just finished Nova's cardigan and she loves it, which is wonderful. I will show it on the next episode!
It’s lovely to see you again Hannah. I made the daisy cardigan for my daughter-in-law. I’ll pop a pic on insta and tag you so you can see it.
Parenting is hard. You’re doing an amazing job. Sending hugs xxx
I loved your daisy cardigan; it was just so pretty!
@@TheCozyCottageCrochet thank you ❤️xx
I am from Michigan and have retired to southern Florida with my husband. I learned to crochet from "you tube" during covid. I have crocheted blankets, throws, hats, scarves, etc. Each year when we go to visit family in Michigan I take all my makes and let others take their pick. I will never use any of these things here! So, I can relate to you not wanting a wool sweater, very beautiful work though. Hugs
That’s such a great idea! That way you can make all the things and they still can get enjoyed by your family 🥰🥰
Omg I love your daisy cardigan I would love to make one. ❤
I hope you love making it!
I have not made it, but I did make granny square cardigan for one of my granddaughters second birthday it was a kit from Mary Maxim and it is adorable my daughter absolutely loved it. Daisy cardigan like yours that your making for Nova is going to be adorable also, can’t wait to see her in it.
And create Mother's Day gift for your mom home.Maybe she would wear that
She most definitely would not wear it 😂 it would be way too hot for her. And she doesn’t like wool!
Good to see you back 🧶☕️😊
Thank you so much 🥹
Love the cardi, very cute. So glad you're back in action on RUclips. Can't wait to see the yarn box you got. I went to the Maryland sheep and wool festival, it was so much fun... And so much damage was done on yarn, lol. Hope you have a great week ahead. Love to the kids
I would love to go to the Maryland sheep and wool some day! It looks so fabulous. I’m glad you had such a great time 🥳🥳
The daisy cardigan is beautiful!!
Thank you!
Great job on your sweater. Congrats on its completion.
Thank you! 😊
❤❤❤ I've had a daisy cardigan on my list of things I want to make. It'll probably stay on there for a while. 😂
LOL Yep, don't do it unless you want to spend one million years seaming everything together!!
Hi Hannah, so good to see you again so soon 👋🏽. Your cardigan turned out really beautiful - especially the back panel, I had to freeze the bit when you turned round, so perfectly joined, gorgeous! I’d take it partially apart and make a lap or car blanket for the kids (but I live in the Midwest so 🥶). Thank you for introducing us to TSS - their selection is so good. On May the 4th I ordered the cutest Princess Leia tin, I ❤ it! Good luck on your baking 🥖
Thank you so much! That made me smile hugely that you noticed my seaming that I spent all that ridiculous time on. LOL!
I adore TSS. Everything they do is such good quality and also adorable
You make me want to crochet another cardigan 😊❤
Go for it! You can do it!
Love your intro, Hannah!❤
Thank you!
Great to see you again and you definitely have fresh energy in this episode, love it! Good to have your opinion on the cardi. You're right though, if you're not happy with it, you won't wear it. xx
I did have some fresh energy which felt amazing! I also organized my WIP bin last night for the first time in a year and that felt motivating as well. But I am SO tired. These kids are taking over my life 😅
I think the cardigan is cute. Not my style but I can see why Nova would want it. It is always great to see you. Wow! Noah is 8 months already? Crawling and pulling himself up! Hope everybody gets to feeling better. I'm jot a fan of sourdough bread, it's a bit on the dry side for my taste but I know it's the in thing right now. I would rather make a fast dough and eat it while it is still warm enough to melt butter. Yum
I LOVE warm bread with butter! Possibly my favorite thing on the planet to eat. It’s just magical
@@TheCozyCottageCrochet I so agree with you. I could make it my entire meal. I would be hurting after but oh so worth it.
Glad to see you on here again! The cardigan is cute! I made my squares out of I love this yarn , teal, mustard, white. Mine ended up as a baby blanket. I'll post on my IG soon. Homemade bread sounds amazing! Miss my moms homemade rolls. Just when I think about trying to make it, I talk myself out of it 😉 One of these days I will try it! 😊
A baby blanket in daisies sounds SO CUTE
I just recently found you, or your podcast found me, so I'm catching up. I love this daisy sweater. I don't care for any yarn heavier than a dk so i will be modifying the pattern. I also do not care for block style but with a better drape it should be fine. I love it.
I think in a DK weight yarn (or even a fingering) the daisy cardigan would have amazing drape and be fabulous. You'll have to make lots more squares of course, but making the squares was the best part of the whole thing!
I want to make a Granny Square cardigan so bad! I'm not quite sure when that will happen. I did just make the Dissent Cowl, by Carissa Browning in hot Barbie pink. I don't think I will ever wear it, but I wanted to make it and I'll have in my closet.
Hot Barbie pink is my favorite 😂 you should try and wear it! You might love it too! (Also no pressure I just spent an entire episode saying this Cardi was cute but I would never wear it lol)
Beautiful sweater Hannah & I totally get why you’re not going to wear it. Bulky weight & size XL 😅 I was actually surprised you are doubling the yarn for Nova’s. The colours she chose are fabulous! I’m on a bag kick lately. Oh & I just finished the BOD shawl. 🧶💜
I doubled the yarn because I couldn’t deal with how long it would take me to make her a cardigan if I held it single 🤣🤣
@@TheCozyCottageCrochet 😂😍
That’s to much work for me. 🤣🤣you did a beautiful job🧶🧶🧶
Thank you! 😊 it was definitely too much work 🤣🤣
I agree the sweater is not appropriate for your climate. I suspect if you followed the pattern in a worsted or DK weight you would like it better. The XL was too big but the L might have been been better with adding an extra row of squares to give you the length you desire. I recently also completed a project that was fun and stretched my skills, but was not something I would actually wear.
Join Nova's squares with slip stitch in the back loop might make that process go a bit faster.
One day when I'm a grown-up I will try the sourdough.
Parent is such a struggle. It's like playing a board game the the rules change every 5 to 9 minutes. Your doing great. I hope your giving yourself grace.
I love the sweater on you but I know what your saying it totally different from the sweaters you usually wear beautiful I really hate the finishing but I think I would love to make it
We all have a style don't we? And it's hard to break out of that!
It was good to see you. Your cardigan is pretty. It's to boxie for me. I can't use wool. Plus not fond of the daisy square.
Thank you! I love a boxy sweater but this one was TOO much box 😅
Wonderful to see you Hannah! Love the sweater, I'm sure I'd wear it here in Northern IL. The journal is very cool, I agree, its a great project companion. The socks are so cute - I did purchase a sock ruler thru your link 😊 What brand knitting needles do you use? I've actually started to revive my long dormant knitting skills & am just practicing now but hope to make socks in the future. I've watched your bread journey & I must say all the bread looks amazing!! My husband & I make bread here & there, I limit my carbs as I watch my A1C, so I freeze bread to create resistant starch carbs, which are digested differently than non resistant starch carbs. Thanks for a great podcast 😊
Would the sweater fit you? I'd be happy to send it to you if it might fit you and you think you would wear it. I'd rather it be loved than to sit in my closet.
Do you love your sock ruler? It's my favorite!
I have tried Lykke needles, Denise needles, and Chiaogoo needles, and my Chiaogoo metal interchangeable knitting needles are my absolute favorites. BUT if you have any hand issues/arthritis in your hands, I would recommend using the Lykke driftwood needles. They are much easier on the hands
Thank you so much for the info on the knitting needles 😊 as a newbie, I appreciate your expert input. Yes, I really like the sock ruler and can't wait to get better & can knit socks. I sent an email re: the sweater, but I think you may have sold it - sad for me, but I'm really glad for you that you did, so it can be loved. Have a great day!
The sweater is goegeous. So much work to put into a sweater Nova will grow out of. My Mom made us granny square vests we wore a lot. But I grew up where it was cold.
I am making hers a little big so hopefully she can wear it for longer! But if she doesn’t that’s okay too 😊
Your sweater is cute. I am not fond of finishing , so it is a NO for me. I tried one month of the Hooks and Needles Subscription, I was not a fan of it. Give it try you might like it.
Finishing is such a drag LOL. I honestly was surprised by how much I liked the patterns in the Hooks and Needles box. I want to make three of them!
I think if you hadn't put the extra panel under the arms it would be better for you as you would lose some of that bulk. And maybe a longer bottom hem or an additional bit of plain crochet before the hem to lengthen it. It's a very nice cardigan but you live in Florida and it's a wool blend, bulky cardigan like your said so maybe it was never going to be the perfect fit 😞
I do agree about the side panel! But I wouldn't wear it even if it were a little longer 😅 It was a fun make and I don't regret it at all, but DANG the finishing! Better for other people to wear this one I think
It's totally adorable on you! But I get it not being your style. I love granny square sweaters, but they aren't my vibe, either.
I love the IDEA of granny sweaters 😂 but then on my body not so much
🎉❤
