@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS now that's what I call "colourwork *corn".
😍🤤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Every time Taylor says we can not do this it’s against the rules. I want to scream Taylor it’s your channel you can do what you want. When we end up doing Ravely Roulette at home thanks to you, you know we are all going down the rabbit hole.
lol! Too true. I get to MAKE the rules. 😘😘❤️❤️
Perhaps you need another series: Down the Rabbit Hole
😊
Loved every moment of this video. Thanks! ❤
Ooooo oooo. OOOOO!
I’d watch that LOL I live in rabbit holes hehe
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS 😁👍🏻
@@tracydumas7833 same 😅😁
I don't mind a rabbit hole now and then especially like the colorwork of that last designer. My goodness her work is beautiful. Jackpot find on roulette!
Kulabra design is ART.
And she's an absolute gem when it comes to helping about issues, too!
Her designs are nice but not so her attitude. Justlilknits commented here with the story.
@@KluitjeRiet We don't want to marry her, just knit her patterns.
When Ravelry Roulette doesn't work the way you want, it actually helps us learn how to search more efficiently. So it's all good!
This is my favourite ravelry roulette episode. The bonus rule breaking round and how it descends into chaos when you find the winter fox mittens was hilarious! But you really did hit the jackpot when you found that website. I could’ve watched you scroll through those patterns and react to them all day! Hope the heatwave cools down soon!
OMG! Kulabra design is AMAZING!!! I've just lost over an hour down that rabbit hole. Her cat designs are lovely, the owl mittens to die for and her popping dot socks have got me so excited.
Guess I've got a new designer to follow. Thanks for the video Taylor, I love all your videos but I really love Ravelry Roulette. Always something unexpected. ❤️
Natalia was pushed off Ravelry by Ravelry because she is Russian. This happened when Putin invaded Ukraine and Ravelry shut designer accounts for those who lived in Russia in a protest. Pretty sure she was a full time designer so she had to move to a website in order to continue her business. I have knit her Grumpy Cat mittens and they are a favourite with my son. She is in the process of getting some of her patterns listed back on Ravelry, but I'm not sure whether or not she's able/planning to return to selling via that platform. She has a great newsletter that comes out occasionally, often with a discount for new patterns and sometimes sells her samples as well. It's well worth signing up for if you are a fan of colourwork. I don't know her personally, but have been following her work for a long time.
That sounds a bit racist on Ravelry’s part.
@@Katepwe It was but they weren't called out on it so it went ahead. They were fairly open about it, it wasn't done in the shadows.
She was removed because racist remarks. And has made homophobic remarkes herself since.
Oh and these remarks are still on her facebook.
I love this series and I love colorwork. I’m always so impressed that you don’t get distracted by other pattern results. I know I would. Thanks for sharing this.
I definitely was, fell in love with that Sinister Cat hat pattern that was on a screen for a seconds 😆, it turns out that it's the same designer as The Catvent Catsock 🥰
Love, love, love Ravelry Roulette! Great find today🎉
How fun! Ravelry Roulette is always full of interesting surprises.
Oh wow, her website has so many beautiful colorwork pieces! And I noticed for some of her mittens she also had matching sweaters!!
LOLOLOL! 🤣 I discovered Kulabra Design a few years ago when I was looking for designs with tigers. Initially I had the same reaction as you. It is indeed a treasure trove!
Yes I also like her designs, but I won't buy any of it. Het attitude stinks.
Your podcasts and rambles are over the top, I love them !!!
You said no one is around to comment back, but we talk back to your Ravelry roulette videos every time! 😂
@@amymcfadden9278 i love that you do!!
Rules dont matter as long as we're having fun! Rabbit holes should definitely be allowed!
I've favorited many of Natalia Moreva's designs. They're just lovely. I look forward to making some eventually.
I love these videos, and while you were looking for the second one I randomly saw in the background a pattern that fit just what I've been looking for for a project so I saved it for later lol!
Those owl mittens 😍 incredible! It’s funny that when people say color work, I think of sweaters, but turns out a lot of mittens and socks are done in color work too
and I think mostly of mittens XD mittens really dominate the colour work in sweden bc they are both pretty and extra warm
Discovering patterns outside of Ravelry feels more invigorating for some reason. Loved this video ❤️
I love Raverly roulette,what fun. Today you out did yourself with the bonus off Raverly website. What incredible colorwork that woman designs. I’m definitely hitting her site after I send this off to you. Stay safe in the heat I’m in the Boston area so it’s 98 it’s the humidity that’s a killer. 💕. Iris
Love ravelry roulette and that was the best rabbit hole ever. I have got to try one of her sock patterns with a zauberball yarn
The background music was wonderful !! Thank you for that rabbit hole of gorgeous patterns !! HOLY COW !!
And what a rabbit hole it was! LOL
If you like Marna Gilligan’s cat socks you should check out her other patterns. She has lots of gorgeous designs. I’ve met her at a yarn show here in the UK a couple of times and she is super lovely too!
Isn't it amazing to go beyond "hot right now"!!! These off rule Ravelry roulette dives are incredible. I can't live another day without those owl mittens!!!
Hi Tayler! Love these roulettes! One suggestion (and excuse me if someone else already has said this): when you run your randomizer, if you choose between 0 and the number AFTER the highest number, number 1 and the largest number will have a fighting chance to be included in the results! annds on Ravelry.
Oooo ok! Thank you for letting me know. I’ve always sort of wondered about that. I’ll be sure to do it in the next one. ❤️❤️
One of your best videos! Going off Ravelry was so enjoyable. ❤
I feel your pain with the heat! I live in Florida and it's been miserably hot here as well. That designer is phenomenal! I'm an extreme newbie knitter and her designs make me want to learn whatever it takes to make them!❤
I feel like a nice addition to your search criteria might be adding a minimum # of projects w/pictures. Maybe even as little as 5-10 projects would give a bit more to look at in these patterns.
Sometimes rules are made to be broken! I am in awe of the colorwork patterns on the kulabradesign. Moving color work to the top of the bucket list lol
These are my favorite episodes, they are so fun! That last designer is so amazing and talented!
I'm a crocheter, but after seeing the owl mittens I need to learn to knit!
I love rav roulette! Go down the rabbit hole- that’s the point!🎉
Hi Tayler. I always enjoy Ravelry Roulette and very much appreciate when you do an extra one when one is not available. Thanks!
OMG! Tayler! She has LOTR patterns! Holy wowza!
That’s the whole point of Ravelry roulette, discovering those rabbit holes!,😂 and oh, gosh, what fun to think of cooler temps during this heat wave!
I love when you do this! This Lebanon Tiger NEEDS those cat socks.
You know what they say about rules--they are made to be broken. Loved the rabbit hole! I also love your Ravelry Roulette episodes because I learn how to navigate Ravelry.
I knew about this designer already! I bought her pattern for the “Gates of Moria” mittens forever ago. I lost the project I was working on in my house fire in 2020. I have never gotten around to making them again. I had to go visit her site and buy the other Tolkien patterns I didn’t have. I may need to make these soon.
love the rabbit hole!! there were even birds on mittens!! wow
All about those cat socks! I would want to knit everything on her site!
I looooove this video format… so much inspiration 🙂↕️
You just inspired me to start a colorwork project! ❤
Two of my knitting goals for 2024 are Colourwork and Socks. Catvent Cats ….. 2 birds, one stone. ❤❤ Another great episode of Ravelry Roulette. Thx Tayler. 😊
The fox mitten designer has a bundle of 19 fox patterns, delightful
I would love a cropped versión of the rose cardigan ... this was fun!
Love Ravelry Roulette. I love it even more when it goes completely off the rails, though! 😊
I can't sleep so thanks for that perfect timing! ^^
❤️❤️❤️
Oh my goodness!!! That last pair of cat socks has me 🤩🤩🤩🤩 my 11 year old loves tigers. If the main color were orange with the black secondary color, they would make the perfect tiger! Now I'm gonna have to knit socks for Christmas...
They are amazing and in the black and orange…omg. I love it!
Loved this roulette. Looking forward (with fear and trembling) to looking up the color work site you posted!
Also, the Discovery had a Fox Bundle of patterns! W00t!
Happy belated birthday to your husband! It depends if there is charth, then you don't actually need written pattern and it's not problem that first socks was in Norwegian, they are so pretty! I love colour work and especially doodles. Once I've made wall hanger with one of my favourite bands, and now I regert that didn't choose a socks for that, it would be way more cooler when both singer 'dancing' around. Also the Knitty Natty's yarn cozies makes the maintaining of the yarn easy peasy.
Lol moments! Ravelry roulette ..how fitting for Las Vegas (Henderson) !❤️🤣
Yes I have bought from that designer, I have knit bird mitts for my mother from her!! Great patterns!
Yea for rabbit holes! Sooo fun as usual! The color work was 🔥🔥🔥
WOW, that discovery. Well done!
Like you, I stumbled upon Kulabra's designs a month or two ago. Like you, I was flabbergasted. I favorited a whole pile of her patterns on Ravelry, but I have never done colorwork, so I haven't dared to try one.
OMG !!! just checked out the website you mentioned...WHY is tis person not more well known and talked about....unreal deigns....thanks for ANOTHER amazing and fun podcast....Truly appreciate all that you do...keep it up ..Please !
Please read the comment of Justlilknits here. Her designs are beautiful but her statement are sh*t.
Glad you “broke the rules”. That color work was amazing! ❤
Colorwork is my favorite EVER. That being said, I knitted a Latvian mitten once and ran screaming from the room. That wound still smarts. Someday, I’ll pick it back up, undo and correct it. But not today.
Could the cat socks have duplicate stitching on them?
Fun video.
I don’t think so. English isn’t her first language so I think the description on the pattern page isn’t translated quite right. It sounds like it’s toe up and you knit the cat face first from a chart, then you can knit the leg following the chart for that or, if you want, you could knit it plain, striped or use a self striping yarn.
Scrolling Rav is fun too, I just filter free, with photo, English. Great inspiration when in a slump because you don't box yourself in to one category, chase that white rabbit wherever it takes you.
I love that I'm watching this and you talk about the heat.... as I enjoy this quickly before we head to the airport to go to Vegas. ;-) Hahahaha.
Ooooo get ready! It’s a scorcher! ❤️❤️
I love this series ! 🎉
I just love your Ravelry Roulette, and todays rabbithole was really awesome💯 I just need those Owl mittens🤩 Here in the western part of Norway the summer has been mostly rain and 12 degrees C / 54 F😒
Same in Germany, we've had 12 months of ongoing rain more or less. The only way to tell summer season is that the rain has become warmer and thunderstorms happen more often. For a summer it's still too cold mostly. I'm so tired and fed up of all this water. Unfortunately it seems we have to get used to this as our new normal. 😔
Tayler, I will happily follow you down rabbit holes until there is no return!
Thank you Sara!! It’s good to have the company. ❤️❤️
I love Ravelry Roulette!
I have never had an interest in knitting colorwork....until NOW!!! Holy hand grenades, Batman!!!! You dropped a bomb on us with Kulabra Designs!!! They are SO STINKING GORGEOUS!!!
Those cat socks made me gasp! Amazing!
Catvent cat socks for the win! ❤
Glad to know I'm not the only one who chases knitting rabbits! 😂
Damn, there I also fall into a deep dive of that colourwork website! Thanks for the amazing find!
I checked and the fox gloves that were on Ravelry are still available for purchase on her website, too, if anyone wants those specifically.
Another inspiring episode of Ravelry roulette!
That was a lot of fun! Those were amazing patterns❤
Weren’t they!? So glad you enjoyed this. ❤️❤️
I love Ravelry Roulette. I don't think I have told you that. I have not yet indulged in doing it myself, I think I would get so lost in it that I could spend all day (or night). Thank you.
Edited to add: I am talking to you while you do it, can't you tell?
❤️❤️❤️ I’m so glad you’re enjoying them! Thank you.
I really love this series because we get a bunch of random patterns to see. I've casted on my first pair of striped socks which is somewhat new but the color changes aren't since I often use a contrasting color for the heel/toe, although very hesitant to try colorwork since I've never done so before for any project. I'm working on only my 2nd pair of socks worked with heavier dk & worsted weight yarn. It's amazing how quickly these socks are working up as I just finished the heel & 1/3 of the foot for sock 2 (catching up to how far I've gotten with sock 1). I've learned that I knit socks way better when knitting socks TAAT. Spending the most of what I have to knit while I can before starting my new job.
What. A. Treat. See what you can find if you just jump in! I don't know what yet but I'm going to knit something from Natalia's gallery of knitwear art. Thank you!
Great episode! One of your best. I love love love the owl mittens. never done any colourwork, but think I will start with some simpler mittens and maybe one day I will get to my goal of owl or the fox mittens.
I did ravelry roulette with my pattern library before I pared it down from 2000 to about 500. It was great fun!
Always great fun!!
Hi Taylor. This was a fun one! Stranded colorwork is my fav. Earlier this year, I made some cat face mitts from Kulabra Designs. The pattern had me use duplicate stitch to fill in the colors on the eyes and nose. I loved how it came out. (PS - the main pattern page on Ravelry has a place where it says what language the pattern is in. Norwegian for example. 😉)
I'm making the millrace sweater vest for my dad after your men's patterns ravelry roulette!
You made the rules you can change them anytime you want 😁
There os so much beauty in this episode.
You definitely need someone with you when you find those "gem" sites - I have to admit that I was squealing like a 4 year old with the cat socks...
Oh my gosh those socks Leslie!!
@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS I'm afraid to go to the site - I'll lose my entire evening!
I really don't care that it was against the rules. I am so happy you went down that rabbit hole. I can't wait to go there myself. Love your episodes
Thank you so much for taking the plunge with me. ❤❤
Great episode as always ❤ I’ll see you next year when I’ve finished going down the massive stunning rabbit hole you’ve discovered haha 😂
I really do not need another project but seeing what you found through Ravelry Roulette has me saving patterns for sale. I found the Sinister Cat Sock by Marna Gillian. Now I just need time! Thanks for another fun podcast! 😎
Sounds like you're on time to me 😊
I'm working on my Skull Sweater( Lion Brand). I wish it were in the round ..but it's my first color-work sweater.
Any technique recommendations? I've got quite a few tutorials and my technique is ok..but any other tips would be appreciated.
❤
This went completely off the rails and I loved every moment 😂
Winter in Australia is currently 18 degrees or 65 Fahrenheit. Which is on the warmer side of Winter but I’m still cold. This video has me wanting to try colour work. Thanks Taylor for making these videos.
Very enjoyable, thank you.💗
The first mittens (N:O 99) you pulled up under 'not discontinued' was published in a book. I'm all for rabbit holes! Those olws!
The word “colorwork” just makes me go into a cold sweat 😂. Those owl mittens?!?!? I will NEVER knit to that level….but I’m okay with that! Signed, Another Sloth Knitter
Such fun!
Taylor thanks for the translation info. I have been struggling with a Norwegian designer to send me the English translation of the pattern that I made the mistake of purchasing in the wrong language. 😅😅 you now give me hope
Great fun!
Right above the tabs is Language: Norwegian for the lovely pair of socks. This also helps me eliminate patterns I don't want to have to work for
My sister is learning to knit and couldn't figure out what she wanted to try as a pattern. I texted her "RAVELRY ROULETTE!" She texted back "wtf?" and so I got her to play 😆
I love the looks of color work socks but don't the floats prevent the stretch needed in most socks? I have always used a ribbed pattern to allow stretch and prevent the socks from falling when worn.
