It’s lovely to watch a fellow knitter in the same season as me! I keep thinking it’s Autumn but in reality spring has sprung! Love hearing the lorikeets in the background and LOVE that green yarn! ❤
I was in the middle of writing my comment when I heard my name! 😂 Thank you so much for the shoutout ❤ This is such an enjoyable episode - the sounds of the birds are super relaxing to listen to and I am LOVING all of the blues and greens you’re planning on working with! Also I’ve just started a 2 colour brioche scarf and as a fellow beginner brioche knitter I think you’ll be grand knitting the Agnete cardigan. Can’t wait to see your progress! Last thing - the colours in my striped poppy tee didn’t run when I hand washed it in warm water. That’s the project I used cotton merino held double for too. But definitely block your swatch to be sure
So great to see you! Appreciate you carrying on without your pod-mate! That green Aussie yarn is incredible, can't wait to see your WIP and eventually your FO. Soak up the sun 🌞
How you feel about watching the other hemisphere go into fall is how I felt when you and Paige started knitting fuzzy things this year!! And now I’m settling in for more jealousy as you prepare for spring/summer 😂 I just always want what I can’t have!
Thank you so much for sharing your perspective on how to prioritize projects. Logically, I know that I can only knit about 1 garment a month, but it's so easy to convince myself I can do more than that! Yours was a wise reminder to be mindful about how much I commit myself to so that knitting can remain enjoyable and not become stressful. Also, I'm with you - I think true summer knits are hard to wear, but transitional pieces like tee shirts and cardigans can still feel seasonably appropriate to knit and are more versatile overall. I'm excited to see how your transitional knits turn out!
Just came across this channel! Loved it already and had to go see other videos to meet Paige 😄 you both are so lovely 🥰 the bird sounds in the background 🥹 also so lovely to come across more local knitters!
My first brioche project was a cardigan! The FAB cardigan. Beginning it was SO frustrating (it is a raglan construction) because I didn’t understand how to count stitches in brioche, so my stitch count seemed not to be matching up with what the pattern said. But once I got past that hurdle it was totally fine. I say go for it 😊
Love your videos, together and solo. Thanks for continuing on! I hope Paige is having a fabulous time while she’s travelling. I’m so excited to see how your sewing plans go!
23:05 The abuela tank would be cute as a layering piece, kinda like the Helianthus top you have now. It's high necked enough to wear in a business casual setting under a blazer, and you can wear a summer shirt over it like you have now during the day. It would probably be most comfortable in summer nights when you don't need to worry about the sun. My first thought for the blue cotton is the rannunculus!
Hi Sarah, in terms of colour bleeding: as this topic came up a couple of times on other podcasts I listened to, I will happily share other peoples advice. They definitely recommend using colour catching sheets, like three in one washing, or using vibigar. Some recommend use both, the sheets and vinegar. However, to be on the save side, you can create a swatch with both colours and give it a wash. 😊
I think the Sanna would be gorgeous in your blue cotton yarn. Mine is in a cotton merino so I can't speak to texture, but I encourage you to give it a swatch and see! (It's such a fun and fast knit, too!)
I so enjoyed sitting and knitting with you in my autumn garden as the afternoon sun warmed me, then faded and dipped away. Your plans were very inspiring, love the colours. Am finishing a pair of Hiedra mitts, then about to start a dark forest green pullover for myself. I cannot make a full garment a month, so my wish list grows…. A teaspoon of vinegar in with your striped swatch should do the trick, I’ve always had success with that trick!
I'm really glad that you keep doing this, it's always a joy to see you! About the cotton-merino... I know that Florence made a summer top with it this summer in similar colors and from what I remember she said it did not bleed. But it's best to check with a swatch, from what I know the pH of the water counts too in this.
This may just be me, but I reckon the Abuela Tank would look great over a very close fitting turtleneck, if you chose the right colours. Its definitely a specific look and maybe not you but I can see it working quite well in Melbourne, it has a Melbourne vibe, and it would solve the sun issue. Thanks for doing these!
I'm so with you on summer knits. I've done a few t-shirts and this past summer (I'm in the northern hemisphere) I didnt' wear them at all, so like you, I've started knitting transitional weather sweaters during summer. I knit a Tolsta with 3/4 length sleeves and our weather just turned and I wore it for the first time and it was perfect. Also: I was just looking at the Zipper Sweater Light and can't wait to see yours as I won't get to it until early next year.
So glad you keep the podcast going! (even though we miss Paige) I made the taipei vest mid-year and I would recommend to not use cotton. I don't know how it would work up in a cotton-merino blend? I did a cabled tank in cotton-merino this year as well and I don't know how to describe it but the yarn did not vibe with the cables. I think I used kfo if that helps? The fabric didn't drape the way I wanted it to and after all of the work, I really wished I just used a lighter alpaca yarn instead. Obviously my experience and preference :) but it never occurred to me that cotton blends maybe weren't great for cables.
I literally just finished my Agnete cardigan in a slightly different green! It was also my first time knitting brioche so lots of similarities haha - despite it taking a longgg time (3 months monogamously) it's already become a staple piece so good luck with yours!!
I can relate. I also sew, and if I wanted something that I could make, I could never justify buying it. Your sweater plans will all be lovely on you! Knitting for Olive may be able to tell you how colorfast their cotton yarns are. By the way, what type of bird/animal is making that background noise? Your setting is lovely - I travel vicariously by watching podcasts!
I really hope you make the Abuela Tank, I've been eyeing it too! It looks like it'd work up super quick so hopefully it wouldn't take up too big of a slot 💙
Thanks, Sarah, for a great podcast! I enjoyed seeing all your plans. I can't wait to see all of these garments take shape. You do such beautiful work. I especially hope that you finally use that blue cotton that you've had in your stash for 15 years. It deserves to become a cherished summer top. As far as the colors running, I always use Shout brand color catchers in my laundry so I worry about that a lot less. Happy knitting!❤🧶
I loved what you were saying about the opportunity cost of choosing to make garments. I find myself wanting to make everything and casting on (or buying yarn) on a whim. i realise i would benefit from looking at what i currently want to make and prioritising those i am either most excited to make or have in my wardrobe or both. I dont think i could make plans for a whole year - but 3 or 4 months, definitely. Love your plans and i look forward to seeing you share more about them as they take shape. :)
Loving the colours you are working with this season! I have a peashoot green Nutiden yarn that I bought when I apparently blacked out and bought ALL THE UNSPUN 😂 am also planning a cardigan but probably the Lo Ki cardigan/jacket that is a lot like the Miles jacket, so I can try my hand at steeking. I also love a dark mohair with a light base, after reading the blog post from Tin Can Knits about it, I feel the dark fluff gives it so much depth and almost a bit of magic/mystery 😍 can't wait to see how your projects turn out. I personally would make the nautical stripe tank in 4 ply for the Aussie climate, but it's been a few years since I lived in Melbourne 🙈 DK is for sure too thick for anything after late spring in Perth
A few pattern suggestions for your cobalt blue yarn - The Vegas Top by Susanne Muller, the Streamline Tank by Alexandra Tavel and Calm Night Cami by Lily Kate France. I have not knit any of them YET but they're all in my ravelry favorites. And I just love all your green yarn - gorgeous.
I like the filming outside, birds singing and spring green colors. So many great knits to come. Have you seen the " Tolsta Tee" by Rebecca Clow in the eyelet version ? Or maybe the Tolsta Tank ? I think you could use your blue cotton yarn for it.
Loved it. Thank you. The blue cotton yarn would look great on you in a summer cardigan to wear over a dress. Maybe the miette pattern if you like that kind of look? As for ideas for another podcast, I'd love to watch a sewing tutorial to make a project bag. Also, I travel to Melbourne each year for a business meeting and will next visit in mid-November. What yarn stores do you suggest? Are there any Aussie yarn brands that you particularly like?
Good for you going this alone for a bit. I love the outdoors and the background noises, especially the birds. I would love to see more of Australia as I have never been there. We are in fall heading into winter here in the north. That green yarn! It is gorgeous and will go well o you.
So good to see you! This reminds me of the “secret” video you did when you frogged Paige’s colorwork sweater for her. So sweet!! Thanks for keeping it going and love all your realistic ideas!! Refreshing 🩷
Don't know if it helps but I did a colorwork sweater in cotton merino but with sandnes garn duo, same colors as you (navy and white), and I wet blocked it and it didn't bleed at all! you should still wet block a swatch just to be on the safe side😅 good luck with yours!
I always enjoy watching your videos!💕 I'm also planing on knitting a brioche cardigan (without any exparienc), the nordlig cardigan by Fiber Tales :) didnt choose the colour yet, but your green is so beautifull!
Hi Sarah Love that green yarn - hope you have more than those two skeins as brioche in the Agnete cardigan ( pronounced “Ag - Nate-E” with 3 syllables by the way) will take quite a bit, 1000-1100 metres for a S I’d say
1) Love the slot strategy, going to try it to help streamline the many things in my queue… 2) That cobalt blue is such a good colour for you you should def honour it into a staple wardrobe piece like a Lakes Tee by Ozetta or similar 3) the background bird songs were beautiful (fellow Aussie but in Canada and one thing I miss the most are the Aussie birds 😂)
Love your take on summer vs between season knits - that's what works for me as well. You have some beautiful yarns and fabrics and I hope all goes to plan. But Sarah, unseeded? That one made me smile, an unexpected gift. English spelling is such a killer and completely unfair really, but sometimes the "sounds the same but spelled differently" words do make a new kind of sense. Unseeded land - it's really making me think now.
I never knit summer garments. I’d prefer to work on another light shawl, like Andrea Mowry’s Birds of a Feather, in the heat of an Aussie summer. Absolutely love your gorgeous green wool you’ve chosen for your Agnette Cardigan. 💚💚
for your third garment consider the Timely cardigan by Truly Myrtle it's 4 ply and you can easily change the stripes to your inspiration picture. enjoying watching from my spring garden in Auckland but it's a bit cool Love your 15 year old cotton, there is a cool top Deuschane which has a feather and fan section which would be great. Will check spelling.
How do you fold down your little finger and keep the others straight?! (22.43) 😅 Love to hear the Aussie birds as soundtrack to your plans. With love from an autumnal Dublin. 🤎
Haha I have been asked many things but that's possibly the most unxpected... I think between knitting, sewing and rock climbing I've got quite good dexterity and finger strength. Thank you 💚💚
It is a different yarn, but i made a garment in K4O merino and heavy merino held together in blue whale and the dye bled quite a lot, ao i would be careful. Good luck!
I’m sure you could improvise the gingham dress pattern but if you want one that does the tier-math for you, the Peppermint Bardon dress is a good cheapie
Hey yeh I considered it, but was a bit worried that the double knit area on the front looked so heavy and unbalanced the rest of the garment... if that makes sense?
I saw southern hemisphere and I clicked. First time viewer from Chile I'm also a blue and green girl but this time i'm craving a pop of red 😊
It’s lovely to watch a fellow knitter in the same season as me! I keep thinking it’s Autumn but in reality spring has sprung! Love hearing the lorikeets in the background and LOVE that green yarn! ❤
Thank you for keeping the podcast going while Paige is away. Greetings from California 🌞
Hello! Thanks so much ❤️

I loved hearing the australien birds, so différent fromage here in Canada!
Haha yeh I bet. It's so different again when you get out of the city as well.
That Agnette cardigan in that green is going to be so gorgeous 😍😍
Also I'm glad my video helped you decide on a design you like better! 🥰
Thanks chick, I am the ultimate beneficiary of all your hard work... Hope you're well ❤️
I love knitting for Spring! I get inspired by brighter, lighter colors and, now, all the super cute tank/sleeveless tops patterns out there ❤
Yeh it's hard to resist the urge to suddenly want to throw off all my dark clothes. But leaning in and loving it.

Jane’s wedding dress in My Lady Jane lives rent free in my head, I’m so obsessed with it!!

Greetings from redhead with a navy blue obsession...it looks good on us so milk that navy blue classic elegance :D
Haha thanks, that's all teh encouragement I need ❤️
I’m obsessed with that green yarn!!!! 😮😮😮
Mmmhmmmm 💚💚 I am in love.
Greetings from Seattle! I love the inclusion of sewing . You’re doing great solo . Enjoy spring .
Thank you! ❤️

Hi Sarah. As a knitter from Victoria who is about to move to Northern QLD I really appreciate these suggestions. ❤❤
OMG what a climate shift. I hope you'll still be able to do some cotton knitting or something 😬❤️ Stay cool...
I'm really glad that you keep doing this, it's always a joy to see you! About the cotton-merino... I know that Florence made a summer top with it this summer in similar colors and from what I remember she said it did not bleed. But it's best to check with a swatch, from what I know the pH of the water counts too in this.
Yep it's definitly a one to swatch, thanks for the tip will go and do some research...
i too am allergic to the sun, so I feel you on the abuela tank. it looks really cool but I can just picture myself with inverse granny stitch sunburn.
😂😂😂 god what a nightmare
Beautiful plans!
Thank you! ❤️❤️
Happy to see you even though Paige is unavailable. My dark Knitting For Olive did run a bit. Definitely do a pre wash or use colour catchers.
Thanks, this is the first time I've heard of colour catchers so learning new things...

Its definitely a specific look and maybe not you but I can see it working quite well in Melbourne, it has a Melbourne vibe, and it would solve the sun issue. Thanks for doing these!
Haha it certainly would be very Melbourne. I wish I was more Melbourne.

Ooo that pattern is so pretty ❤️
Deschain is the correct spelling of the summer top. i plan to make this in Dk cotton 8 ply guage
As a way of adding interest to an otherwise plain cardigan, you can smock the ribbing at the hem. It would go well with a tiered dress.
Oooo that's cool, thanks!
For the blue cotton - what about the Corran cardigan by the creabea/Rebecca clow? Ad I recall, it is a dk weight cotton lacey summery cardigan
I’ve got the Crescendo Summer Top from Sophie (the knit purl girl) on my list. I think your blue DK cotton yarn might work nicely for that.
OMG this is so beautiful! And so perfect thank you ❤️
How do you fold down your little finger and keep the others straight?! (22.43) 😅 Love to hear the Aussie birds as soundtrack to your plans. With love from an autumnal Dublin. 🤎
Haha I have been asked many things but that's possibly the most unxpected... I think between knitting, sewing and rock climbing I've got quite good dexterity and finger strength. Thank you 💚💚
It is a different yarn, but i made a garment in K4O merino and heavy merino held together in blue whale and the dye bled quite a lot, ao i would be careful. Good luck!
Eeep thanks
I’m sure you could improvise the gingham dress pattern but if you want one that does the tier-math for you, the Peppermint Bardon dress is a good cheapie
Ooooo perfect! Thank you 💚💚
What about the Gia zipper genser from the Sandnes Garn Softly book since you’ve already got it?
Hey yeh I considered it, but was a bit worried that the double knit area on the front looked so heavy and unbalanced the rest of the garment... if that makes sense?
@@twopurlsinapod never thought of that but it makes sense!
I'm currently making the Portobello sweater. It's not particularly size-inclusive.
I don’t have a gentleman moss coloured beanie 🤣💚
Thank you so much for continuing to do these podcasts without Paige.... loving it!! 😊
So glad 💚
Short sleeved Ranunculus?
Yeh smart.
Petit knit Sevilla blouse for 8 balls blue
Yess that did spring to mind as well… hmmmm
