Love all your projects! I have the same problem with the crew necks of Petite Knit. Sewing down the double rib always gets to tight for some reason - and I have a bigger head circumference than her probably. 😅 I therefore start with knitting the neck, so I don't have to sew it on. As far as I can tell, you are fine with the Hermione socks... it doesn't matter if you start the heel on the front or back needle, as long as you are working the heel instruction all on the one needle you are started on. 😊
Thank you ♥️ I've found a solution for that now, which is that I used a needle size bigger for the sewing part of the folded collar! Maybe you can try it too? I think the problem is that I did the instructions for the RS on the WS 🤦🏻♀️ but it's just one row that I have to go back on so that's okay!
Quite motivating video go to through my abandoned wips and finally frog them. I decided I dont want them, but they are in my stash for a few years waiting for the action!
Love the colourway for the vest!! My hibernating project is a Guernsey Genser pullover that has no sleeves. I don't like knitting with the yarn so I've been putting it off. 🙃 By the way, I don't think you're a beginner knitter anymore 😁
Thank you! When the knitting process isn't great it's definitely difficult to continue! Hope you'll find the motivation to pick it up, even if it's just a couple of rounds a day! Haha I don't know, I still feel like one because I'm so bad with gauges and some concepts of knitting... but maybe I shouldn't 🙈
I just subscribed to your podcast because I’ve really been enjoying your videos and the knits you choose. I had a similar problem recently with a Petite Knit pattern being too small, probably because I knit a bit tight, and I didn’t block my swatch. I am going to put on a cable so I can try it on and see. I’ve just started knitting sweaters again after 2 decades, and each one had to be reknit at least 3 times because the gauge wasn’t correct or the fabric was too dense! It’s so frustrating, but I’m starting to get a feel for it again. Maybe a knitting fails video would be good so we can learn from each other’s mistakes. 😅Hope your wrist feels better soon!
Thank you so much ♥️ It’s definitely tricky to learn your gauge and ensure that the finished fit is what you wanted! Sometimes it’s recommended to knit a bigger swatch because it’ll be more likely to me your actual gauge! Will write down the idea for the fail video, thank you 🥰

Thank you, that was the goal when I made it! It can be a long process to go through, but it feels really good when you do it!
I love this! I have a sock project that’s been hibernating for well over a year that I should really get back on the needles soon🙈
Sometimes that's just how it is 🙈 and we need a little push to get it done 💪🏻
Absolutely, so it’s great to have knitting friends so we can motivate each other 👯♀️🩷
