What a lovely podcast! Dear Karoline, I wish you (and your family) all the best in this wonderful and changing time. Do what you feel is best, in your own time. You will change, as will probably the podcast for a while. Greetings from Northern Germany, Luisa
How lovely that you will welcome your daughter soon. Hope all goes well. I’ve made a particular baby pants pattern for many of my friends’ grandkids and it absolutely awesome and fun to make (especially the short rows for the butt!). It wasn’t around when my daughter was younger so I wasn’t able to make her any but if they had the pattern for adults-I’d definitely make it for myself! It’s the Rocky pants by Tin Can Knits. Thanks for sharing.
I have only just found your podcast and have enjoyed catching up on the latest 3. My Grand daughter is pregnant with her first baby so I am getting idea of the kind of things to knit for her. I shall be going back to watch more of your earlier podcasts now.
Having different projects on different floors and rooms is very relatable. Though I’m not pregnant I recently moved into a three story house and had some problems with my back. So you really don’t want to forget your project upstairs. So instead I started placing knits evenrywhere 😂
When I was expecting almost 30 years ago now my dr explained to me that a pregnant woman's body is working as hard as a mountain climber or marathon runner except all the time... No wonder we get so tired! You are so close to the end of the race 💙 So excited for you!
The outfit for baby is adorable! Well done! Good luck with your new baby (and the pup is adorable)! I have the Sari Nordlund sweater in my favorites; it was good to see it in grey with black colorwork!
Thank you so much 🥰 Fayla did show herself from her cute side today. My contrast colour is actually a very dark navy (my fault for bad lighting!) but I think it’d be stunning with black.
I love your idea for having things CO and there for you to work on and pick what you want to do when you get a chance. Fantastic 💙 I have lots of health issues and have usually been a monogamous knitter. I think I might incorporate this thought into my life little by little and see how I get along with it. I hate when I want to knit, have the time, feel like it, but not at a point that I can necessarily concentrate on it so much. I definitely need more variety. Thank you for sharing your thoughts about this, I greatly appreciate it!
I’m so glad you can relate ❤️ I have surprised myself by how much I’ve enjoyed it as I’m usually so much a one or two project person but it’s been great to be able to switch things up. I’ve enjoyed casting on when I’ve had the energy and desire to do it, not when I’ve desperately needed something to work on.
thank for a entertaining hour with you, good luck on the baby. I love your Inge Sweater, and have just ordret yarn in exact your colors. It was quite interesting to "meet" a danish in scotland - my oldest friends from childhood (from DK) altso live in Edinburg and Scottish married :-)
I hope you get some time to rest before baby comes! Lovely projects as always. In case you didn’t know sostrene grene are opening a shop in Livingston, not sure when it opens but I’m looking forward to having a look when it does
Cute FOs! Was sorry to hear your frustration with the waistband. When I have a folded hem I use JMCO (Judy's magic cast on) to create live stitches on both sides, knit the length needed, then bring the 2 ends together and k2tog from front and back needle across the whole round and continue on. I hope that makes sense, and might be useful if you need it in future. All the best for your family's new adventures!
That’s actually how I tried to do it 🙈 I think I just didn’t find quite the right way to have the resting stitches, I just couldn’t get a flow going it all got too tight. I have done toe up socks before but not anything fingering weight where you’re not working all the stitches. I’m just not great with tiny needles!
Cardigans are your friend! I found that even when I got back to pre baby weight, my body shape was very different than it used to be. Enjoy your time with baby when she arrives!
What a lovely episode ❣️ I wish you and your family only the best with the little one arriving soon ❤️ i loved all the baby knits you made. I know i will come back to your videos when i‘m about to have kids for inspo🤭
Thank you so much! 🥰 I’m hoping to do more of a round up of what we used in the future and what I wished I’d made - there’s a few of those videos out there but don’t think there can be too many!
So many exciting wips! Wishing you all the best with the little one arriving soon, hope you manage to have a bit of restful maternity leave before then
Such a lovely episode full of beautiful wips! I hope everything will go as smoothly as possible for you in your "fourth trimester". I always make faux pearl stich seam in striped/colourwork projects. The simplest and most efective way to make it look quite nice and helps with diagonal twisting a little bit too. Do you find it worth a try to experiment with more advanced methodes?
Oh that’s interesting, I’ve not heard of that before. To be honest I rarely experiment because I quite like following patterns - even as I become more of an “advanced” knitter I rarely get the itch to make major changes besides maybe changing the length of ribbing or the body.
Loved the podcast and all your wips. I also usually cast on only up to three projects at a time because I'm not good at splitting my attention between projects😅. All the best for your maternity leave. Your baby will be wearing the most beautiful knits!
Your sweater is quite stunning. The bleeding I hadn’t noticed until you mentioned it but it does seem to add some depth to the pattern with the pink «halo» and centres. Yes Norwegian yarns do smell «sheepy».
Hi Karoline, so many nice projects I am looking forward to.......no rush at all😅 you look beautiful in your sweater. I love "sostrene grene" for knitting accessories, because it is very inexpensive. Might have to look for more online😂 I wish you all the best for a safe birth❤ enjoy your maternity leave
Hi Karoline, so lovely to catch up with you! Your projects are beautiful. I am usually a 1 to 2 projects person but 37 weeks pregnant I find myself casting on a lot of things too because I don’t like beginning projects, so I’ll be happy that they are ready to go! Always thought that that was not super common 😅 I am glad I am not the only one. Love what I see of your red Rauma Fivel, would you say it’s a cool or warm red? I always find hard to tell on screen when I a ordering yarn. I also want to knit the jacket n°2 in red and was planning on using KFO merino and silk mohair in red currant but… I am not keen on knitting with mohair around a newborn… Enjoy your maternity leave ❤
Is this nesting for knitters, casting on all the projects?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Good question about the colour…. I think it leans ever so slightly cool/blue toned but not overly so. It’s a very true red in real life.
I love that Lumme sweater😍 And it might look great with short sleeves (like the half-sleeve you’ve already done). I find short-sleeve sweaters surprisingly useful. Just a thought :) Good luck with the baby and see you on the other side!
I’m too cold for short sleeves 🤣🤣🤣 Even in pregnancy I’m not running very warm - I wear woolly sweaters year round even in summer. I like the look of it on other people but conscious it wouldn’t be worn compared to other sweaters with long sleeves ❤️
I took a break from knitting and came back to your videos and CONGRATULATIONS! :) Had a quick thought about the Peer Gynt bleeding - do you think maybe it was one bad skein that had some residual dye left? Just thought that might explain why your swatch didn't bleed but the finished garment did. Is the bleeding worse in some parts of the garment than others? Might explain it! Anyway - again, CONGRATULATIONS! :)
Wauw, hvor er farverne i din Inge sweater flotte til dig 🎉 PøjPøj med babyungen ❤ Tak for gode podcasts 🙏 Vi ses, når du har overskud - vi skal nok være her 😘

well done Karoline, all the best for your upcoming baby adventure 💕love your Inge sweater!
Thank you so much! ❤️
Best wishes for an easy labor and a comfortable recovery!

Three floors sound like the dream for having projects everywhere 🤣

I do sound like a marathon runner most of the time 🤣

Awww it’s so lovely to know that other people are inspired by your choices! It’s a small world - there’s more Danes in Scotland than I expected 😊
So excited for you to meet your baby girl 💖💖💖 it’s such a sweet time.
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful knitting projects 💙🤍❤️
Love the wip parade! And I'm super inspired to make a Inge Sweater myself now 😍 Good luck and enjoy your little one! 🥰
Thank you!! 😊 It’s a really fun project
Wishing you a safe delivery😊
I hope you get some time to rest before baby comes! Lovely projects as always. In case you didn’t know sostrene grene are opening a shop in Livingston, not sure when it opens but I’m looking forward to having a look when it does

@@KarolinesKnits Still looks beautiful! :)
