    I would walk 5000 miles to find a great, watchworthy knitting podcast, and I think I've found one in the Thoughtful Knitter. I really enjoy your presentations. Down to earth, fun and honest. Thank you!!

    I have to agree Ailie that the cargill doesn’t flatter you and I suspect the yarn was not the best for the project so I think you should frog it and use that yarn for something else!! Congratulations on 5k!! And I really do love that t-shirt!! Great gift!!

    • @TheThoughtfulKnitter

    I always find it strange when podcasters apologise for not being around for a while. As you are giving your time and sharing your beautiful project’s as free entertainment there should be no need. We are lucky to share your knitting with you. Thank you so much for everything you do and well done on achieving 5000 subscribers. I am looking forward to your next update whenever that appears x

    Congratulations Ailie for 5000 subscribers. I am looking forward to my first grand kid due any day now. I have been knitting everything for the little one the whole summer and fall. My latest is a texture vest pullover with the “v”. I never knitted that neckband or texture pullover before. After trying to knit the pattern from my phone because I don’t have a printer, I decide I will not knit the back with texture. I will knit stockinette for the back. If I really like knitting the texture pullover, I would knit one for me.
    Continued success with the awesome podcast. Thanks for sharing and the lovely giveaway! Yes, there are no words for the awful acts of stealing a wheelchair. I am glad the lady was able to raise money to get a replacement. Keep up the wonderful with. Always looking forward to your next upload! Wishing you a lovely Christmas and happy knitting! ❤❤

    Congratulations on the well deserved 5000 subscribers! I too am a classic design wearer and definitely need items to fit under jackets. I wish I had the scraps to make that granny stripe cardigan, but it will definitely go into a wish list. It completely reminds me of my precious grandmother who made herself one just like it in the 70’s. 😊 Take care, heal and enjoy your Christmas season.

    • @TheThoughtfulKnitter
      @TheThoughtfulKnitter  Год назад

    Congratulations 🎊 🥳🙌🥂🍾 5000 subscribers! How wonderful!! Can’t believe you’ve been going over a year, doesn’t seem like 5 mins ago! Or is that my age? The yarn prize is lovely, not in my usual range of colours but very beautiful indeed. Maybe you can teach an old dog new tricks!?!!?? 😂
    I’m making socks for my father-in-law for Yule. He had a heart attack a month ago and has since then been feeling that his feet are colder so he’s had one pair of knitted socks from me and has been promised another for the day. He’s never asked for anything knitted before, he’s a life long farmer, now retired, and doesn’t have joyful memories of woolly socks of 70+ years ago when he was younger. I imagine they were a bit more rustic and unevenly spun going by his description. Mine, however, are bloody lovely and I’m “a good knitter” praise indeed from him I must say 😁!!! Anyhoo I’ve blathered on enough, hope you’re feeling better soon, take care xXx

    Congatulations on 5000 subscribers! I enjoyed the sweater/jumper parade. It was inspiring. I favorited the Braids of Grass. I'm working on the Mossery Cardigan by Pamela Wynne. I saw the pattern in a yarn shop while I was on vacation and decided it would fit beautifully in my wardrobe. After a bit of a snafu with the sizing I've been making progress on the front of the cardigan. Have a happy holiday season!

    Hi Ailie, wow congratulations on reaching over 5000 subscribers, that's amazing.
    I can see what you mean about the Cargill sweater. I would probably rip back the sleeves and make them fit me better. I'm also not a fan of the balloon type sleeves. I had them in the 1980's and don't need to go back through hat fashion again!
    I love the grey sweater with the cables at the top. Sorry missed the name. It really suits you.
    I hope you are feeling better soon, love. I'm having a bit of a flare up at the moment, but wrapped up warm with my jumper, cardigan and big fluffy blanket. Hoping to get away with a few more days before we have to put the heating on. Even with the government help its a bit of a struggle. But I've got my needles and hooks, some fluffy yarn so I'm all good.
    Take care xxJane

    • @TheThoughtfulKnitter
      @TheThoughtfulKnitter  Год назад

      🥰 Thanks Jane, hope you’re on the mend now🤞💗
      Sadly the Cargill is a raglan, so I’d need to pull out everything (including the body) to sort out the sleeves. If I pull that much out I may as well keep going and frog the entire thing…I reckon that’s what I’ll probably do, but maybe not for a wee while yet!
