    I think a monochromatic outfit would look great with that Blouse no.1 over, for example beige pants + beige tank or black pants + black tank, and then throw that red blouse over to make it pop!

    • @hipknithooray

      Ooo yes!!! 🔥🔥 will try a black monochrome outfit underneath

      I am so excited about the knitting needles for socks and will wait to see how it goes. I am excited. I love your red sweater and how that turned out for you. I will keep coming back.

    I love wearing sheer tops layered over dresses. Especially dresses where the top may feel a bit more revealing or has spagetti straps to add more coverage/warmth

    I also like knitting socks on double point needles but recently have been using 2 16" circular needles and am really liking that. You knit half the stitches on one needle, drop that needle and then knit the other half of the stitches on the other needle. Super easy and you have many more choices of needle types (I like wood and use the llyke). Love all the projects you make and especially like your in-depth critique of patterns, techniques, yarns, tools, etc.

    Hey Rebecca, Thanks for such informative vids, I've been subscribed since the first vlogs and always look forward to them, we share very similar tastes. Just wanted to let you know I would be very curious to hear more on the addi flexi flips and would be curious to see them in action as I've been eyeing them off for ages. I currently do magic loop for my small circ knitting and I cant say I love it but more tolerate it, its the continual resetting up which I find tedious but I dont feel at all tempted to try straight double points. I own 2 addi interchangeable sets, the lace and the turbo, so I confess I'm an addi fan. Until next time, happy click clacking.

    Just subscribed! I would love to see you work the Addi Flexi needles. I ordered some last night, they arrive today, so I was excited to see you speak about them here. I would appreciate in a future video you sharing your thoughts on them. I have high hopes for using the needles!

    I have bought 2 patterns by the wave sweater designer and felt almost duped after my purchases after seeing these bare bones instructions and having to look up what felt like everything I needed to have written the pattern myself. I have been tempted to purchase the wave sweater pattern because
    I truly LOVE their designs, but I wondered if I would be better off knitting up my own inspired design/pattern. Your videos and feedback on this pattern have been extremely helpful. It is good to know others feel similarly, so thank you for sharing your true feelings/experiences with this pattern❤
    I have ended up casting on another basic pattern that I will not have troubles with and am still debating between adding the wave sweater or porcelain sweater motifs

    • @hipknithooray
      @hipknithooray  5 месяцев назад

      I have her nellie top and crew pants patterns which I think are pretty clear (but also relatively simple to follow along to as they are garter and stockinette)! But I agree the more complex patterns are too bare bones for me 🙁 Ive wanted to knit the bibi sweater but don’t know if it’s worth it now and should just pick something else

  • @tatadto

    I love your Blouse no. 1! great modifications. I think it would look great thrown over a tank dress or a tank and wide pants.
    I have made the Esther jacket. Did it with a little less ease and a shorter length than the pattern calls for and I have enjoyed wearing it. It is worth all the work for sure.

    @christycampbell1874 4 месяца назад

    So glad I found your channel!! I'm going back to watch a few to catch up and I really appreciate your attention to detail and insights about patterns and yarn! I completely agree about Saona. I made a cozy classic light short sleeve with 1985 and it's kinda prickly. I loved the experience working with the yarn, loooove the color and lightness but it is a little scratchy for a tee. Also thank you for the insights on the esther jacket--I've got that in my queue. Why do you think it's called a jacket and not a cardigan? Thanks!!

    I'm currently knitting the esther sweater and for me, the increase sections were the only part where I really needed to reference the charts. After that, I had it committed to memory and became a lot more of an enjoyable knit!

    Hello! I’m Bobbi. Your channel popped up in my RUclips suggestions. You have a lovely podcast! I really enjoyed the double pointed needle “hack”. I have always boiled water and poured over my Clover Takumi interchangeable needles cords. It works like a charm! Thank you for a great episode! I subscribed and liked!!! 👋😊❤️

    Great to hear, you're doing fine with the honeycomb brioche. Good luck for the increases!🤞🏻
    I would like to make a suggestion on sock needles as I really enjoy working with them - Knitpro Nova Cubics. I use the DPN version for the knitting and the fixed circulars for trying on in between or putting the stitches "on hold" for transportation. They're really sharp, slippery but not too much and with them I have achieved the best results yet!
    The Addi Crazy Trio is quite popular here in Germany and I recently purchased them together with the Addi Sock Wonder. To me the Trio ones unfortunately are so fiddly and blunt to work with where as the Sock Wonder one needs quite a big circumference to work with enjoyably.
    Looking forward to your next video!😊
    Have a great week & happy knitting 🧶

    I totally agree with you about doing a ton of research before buying and that is why I only use Addi Needles. They are more expensive but the quality is superior and, I’ll have to take a look at the Addis you have!
    Finally, love your channel!

    • @hipknithooray
      @hipknithooray  5 месяцев назад

      Thank you! ☺️ I actually don’t like the tips of the addi needles 🙈 I find they’re not sharp enough but I do agree, they’re very well made! That’s why I’m curious to try the hiya hiya flyers as I hear they have sharp (arguably maybe too sharp though) tips

    Love your mohair top! I'm really starting to wear more bright colors as I'm getting more confidence in my style ;). I tried the crasytrios for 5 min and knew they weren't for me. I like to knit 2 extra stitches on the next dpn to prevent laddering but that wasn't possible with the trios. Now I use a small Addi circulars with dpn's for the toes ;) I hope they work for you though 😊🍀

    You inspired me to also cast on My Honey Vest! I happened to have all the yarn I needed in stash, including Plotulopi. I was considering doing some alternating with the background colours, but I agree that it risks looking stripey, so I’m also going with a solid background. I just cast on the double knitting today! Love your podcast and all your projects.

    I think it’d be really cool on top of a black satin dress (spaguetti straps, midi or long and with boots type doc martens) or even with the satin slip skirts we see everywhere these days!
    Soz, you asked for ideas😂.
    Love the honey vest!!
    Thanks for another wonderful catch up😉

  • @MakingCassie

    I've been wanting to knit a mohair top like that! I think for styling, I can see it over a slip dress, or you could do black tank, blank jeans, and then have the top be the pop of colour.

    Great episode, Rebecca! I really like how you styled your sweater no. 14 (with the turtleneck underneath and the necklace). I'm not sure if you wear a lot of dresses, but I think a sheer mohair sweater looks great over a simple sleeveless dress!

    • @hipknithooray
      @hipknithooray  5 месяцев назад

      It’s been my favorite way to style it since the v neck is so deep! I do have a few sleeveless dresses that I’ll start to wear again in the spring so I’ll try that - thank you! ☺️

    • @hipknithooray
      @hipknithooray  5 месяцев назад +1

      Hmmm I would say it’s doable if you’ve knit cardigans/jackets before but I would recommend starting with a texture knit in the round first if you can wait to knit the Esther Jacket! You have to read a chart which flips the knit/purl stitches when you work on the right side and wrong side so it could get a bit confusing
