    Omg Rachel! This is HUGE😍 You've not just made a yarn collaboration, but this is the essence of Rachel is Knitting in yarn and fiber form, amazing!!!! Also think about a stripey sweater with Clench your butts and Ask for what you want, that would be glorious! I was thinking about the Sibling Sweater My size by Laura Penrose but there's plenty of options

      Thanks for sharing my excitement! A striped sweater would be great! I’ve recently settled on Ripple Butt Shorts for Clench Your Butts. Still not sure about what to do with Ask for What You Want!

    Great podcast. Your knitting always looks so beautiful. Your Salty Air tee looks great on you. I just finished knitting one last week but have yet to block it. Seeing you wearing yours may be just the motivation I need. Thank you!

      Thank you! The Salty Air Tee is such a gorgeous pattern; I want to make one now, too!

    Just glue that tab back on, it isnt needed but you want the look. Use superglue because it will melt the plastic together and I would put a piece of tape on the back for reinforcement. Yes 3-d printed items can be delicate. Take a minute before you touch your spinning wheel to just sit in your chair normal. If you are using your computer chair for your spinning chair you want to sit more upright. Set a 10 minute timer for a posture check and spin. With your nano you should be able to spin from clear across a second bedroom length without your single falling apart. I have tried this and got to the distance of half my height and chickened out. Still was pretty far from my espinner.

      Yeah I think glue will do the trick for sure! Thanks for the tips on spinning posture. That’s so cool that you can spin from so far away on the e-spinner!

    that cone is amazingly huge and glorious. Also when you said the new yarn colorways were based on phrases you use a lot, I was going to be so disappointed if "clench your butts" wasn't one of them 🤣 I've always heard it spoken Sha-NEE-ko. Also your live idea sounds like such a fun game!

    • @rachelisknitting

      Thank you so much! I'm glad that you knew right away that clench your butts had to be one!

    Sending a virtual hug 🤗 and hope it helps ease some of the disappointment with the piece snapping off your replacement base. That’s so frustrating especially with something brand new.
    Loving your recent finished projects and appreciate the details on your Lento. Your cone is also so pretty! Was thinking you might be able to reverse image search it to see if you can get info online about the yarn/weight/original yardage and then maybe determine how much you might have left if/when you cake up the cone? A purple tweedy jacket/cardigan would give Prof Rachel vibes 📚

    Regarding your Miles Shirt Jacket: I think you are smart to allow the garment to sit for a few days after it's dry and off the blocking mat and THEN sew on your pockets. Here's a thought: would it help to actually wear the garment a few times to allow gravity to do its thing before pocket time? The fibers may relax in a different way after experiencing gravity. Just a thought. I have never put pockets on a garment, so I am making a suggestion on a topic about which I really know nothing. 🙂

    • @rachelisknitting
      @rachelisknitting  2 месяца назад

      You may be onto something there! But I think that if I was going to let gravity change the body of the garment, I'd want the pockets to be exposed to that as well? Ultimately, I very well may wait a few days after wearing... but it'll be because I'm a procrastinator! Oops!
