    Absolutely love sweater 23 on you! Looks so wearable and a staple addition! I need a few pieces like that. You Kerr is stunning 😍 I really like the tweed and matching CC idea!!

    Thanks Karoline! Loved hearing about the projects that may not work out. I’m thinking about what to do with a couple of projects too. My ears perked up when you talked about broken rib stitch not being the best fit for the yarn selected. It seems like I can have a pattern I really love and a yarn but they don’t make a great match together. Do I hesitate to frog because I’m not thrilled with what’s developing or because I already put the time in…. In the end, if I don’t like it, I won’t wear it. The pattern and yarn deserve better, so do I. 😊 I guess it’s never a waste if we learn something about ourselves or our materials.

      You’re so right! Sometimes it’s easy to push through because you’ve already put in the work but I think it’s important to ask yourself if it’s the right project ❤️

    I really enjoy watching your podcasts as you are very chilled out and always show lovely designs. Love your choice of yarns for your current projects and the pattern for Sweater No 18. I've had a break from knitting but have some stripy socks waiting to be started on tiny circular needles... it will be a first. I'm not sure how fiddly it's going to be but am going to give it a go!

    Your Kerr sweater is coming out so nicely! And your sock saga is going strong 💪 I've finally finished my 90% purling sock in Oct, I think I'll need a little bit of a break before I try another sock 😆

    Im a new viewer. I watched the wedding episode and this one. I love the colors you chose for Rebecca’s Kerr sweater! I can imagine catching your floats every 2 stitches for a children’s sweater would be helpful so they don’t catch their fingers in the larger floats. Your dog is very sweet. I love the yarn you got for your next test knit!!! It’s beautiful. 💗

    I hope your trip is (or was) peaceful and relaxing. I often think it's more fun to plan out the knitting I'm going to take (rather than the vacation itself) because I do look forward to those quiet, uninterrupted knitting moments. Sometimes you actually get them!

    Thanks for another fabulous episode. I’m in love with your sweater no 23, what a stunning yarn combination ❤️
    For a dk weight (lace + fingering) slipover, I’d really recommend the Amy slipover from Sandnes Garn from Mykt Til Dame. It’s the only slipover I’ve made so not a super well balanced opinion 😂 but I do love mine and wear it way more than I expected.

    • @KarolinesKnits

    Your Kerr Sweater is wonderful, love the choise color. Also love your sweater no 18, those ywo strands together are creating such a beautiful fabric and the color suits you so nice. I am also making seeater no 18 for my son but I don't like the yarn I choosed for this project, I am using KOS by sandnesgarn, it is a soft yarn however I don't enjoy knitting with this yarn, it get stuck on my fingers skin, my nails, just not my fav and also I am afraid the fabric will grow both on washing and wearing.

    • @KarolinesKnits
      @KarolinesKnits  2 года назад

      Thank you so much for your wonderful comment 😊
      A long time ago I knitted with Kos (it’ll probably be in a very early episode!) and just like you I really didn’t enjoy the knitting experience - it felt like plastic to me. But the final product has actually worn surprisingly well so hopefully it’ll be worth the effort. You have a very lucky son!

    Great video. It sounds like you do a lot of test knits. I'd love to know how you get selected for them.

    • @KarolinesKnits
      @KarolinesKnits  2 года назад +1

      It depends! Most of mine are in Danish and it works quite differently I’d say. When I first started testknitting in Danish I used to apply but for my Danish ones I tend to be asked now, including the two I talk about in this video.
      For Rebecca’s testknit, I applied just like everyone else by keeping an eye on her Instagram😊
