    Totally agree with you about the comfort of this craft. I had a bad day yesterday and I went to my LYS and got yarn and started a blanket. I felt calm and happy again. Right now I am knitting the Artus shawl trying to push myself to finish the pattern.❤

      thank you for being here, unraveling with me, and validating this feeling 💛 it’s so needed to have something that helps us decompress but still feel “productive”. as a mama it feels like time needs to be spent “efficiently” and knitting helps me slow down.

    Youve been my comfort watch over the past few days! You popped up in my feed so I checked out your channel and binged. I also just did knitting girl math and spent more money on knit picks so i wouldn’t have to pay shipping. I planned a couple of projects and treated myself to yarn and got free shipping. :)

    • @morganunraveled

      omg so glad my videos bring you comfort 🤎 haha I love that! would always rather spend more money treating myself to more yarn than shipping!!

    Love the conversation on mindless and mindful knits, or which type of knits is our favourite! It's so interesting how everyone feels differently on the same craft 🥰
    Also, I feel better paying for yarn instead of just "empty" shipping costs that don't bring me anything, even if that means technically paying more than I wanted to in the beginning haha
    The Storm Sweater junior is looking so cute in that colour btw!

    • @morganunraveled
      @morganunraveled  Месяц назад

      thank you for inspiring that conversation, absolutely love the term! it really does help me be more mindful! some knits are more mindful & some more meditative (focus the brain vs turn the brain off!) and both are so valuable 🧺☕️

    I’m currently knitting Patapsco by Dee O’Keefe. It’s a beautiful cables shawl. I love making anything with cables too. I haven’t knit in several years and decided to pick it up again and I’ve been feeling so inspired. I’ve been knitting for 18 years since I was 16 years old over half my life 😱

    So glad to have discovered your channel, Morgan! You are wise to carve out time for yourself as a stay-at-home-mom. It's amazing how creative, cup-filling time changes our outlook and brightens the day. I'm working on the Bridgeland pullover (tackling cables for the first time!) and a Stripe Hype pullover. I love your pattern choices and colors!

    I love your videos so so much, I really want to thank you for giving me the courage to purchase the needles set and the multiple yarn that have been sitting on my wishlist, since there are not as many knitters in my country I really want to start my own channel to have some friend even if they are foreigners. I stayed up last night watching your videos while knitting my lace shawl so I guess this is the answer to your question. I also like the colors that you choose for your knits it suits you very much

      Hi Morgan, although I’m a lot older than you and have been knitting for many years, a lot of what you spoke about is very relevant especially knitting as therapy. Not only for young mums but many women, knitting provides creativity, mindfulness or psychological “flow” and my husband has often said I’m addicted too 😂. I say there’s worse things to be addicted to! 😉 I love everything- cables, lace but I can become a bit bored with too much stocking stitch. Your Auguste is gorgeous and as I absolutely love my sweater no 15, the Auguste as well as the Minto (as seen on aka Nora knits) are in my queue. Keep up the great work. ❤

    I'm a mum of a 13 month old (from Scotland), and I'm just learning to knit. Part of it was inspired by you and your channel, so thank you! I'm really enjoying it so far and I'm working on a baby hat as my first ever knit. If I get better at it, I plan on donating them to the local maternity hospital. It's not perfect, I've made some mistakes already, but I'm trying to not be a perfectionist about it and just enjoy the process and learn from it. I'd love to know what tools you use, or if you have any recommendations for beginners!
