PLEASE, PLEESE, PLEEEZ, re-create th bohemian granny squares and stripes sweater vest the Goldie Hawn wears when she leaves and then returns in Butterflies Are Free. The colors are mostly deep red, dark blue but not navy I think red heart has a Soft Navy (that pairs really well with light raspberry btw for an old time look) and either antique gold or a tan color like buttery leather; it may be yellow that I'm seeing but you know how it is when you put some colors together they appear to be a different color? My eyes are not as good as they once were and even though I am looking at a big screen TV I can't catch all of the details because I can't manipulate the light/brightness on it. I need to borrow somebody's second grader to get into the settings for that. Will you please check into that sweater vest? They really aren't that many granny squares in it and I think there may be a triangle or two. BTW, is it that you are sensitive to the lanolin or the texture of the wool? Great job on the Rachel sweater. I think I would have made the tan stripes smaller were it me. I'm wide enough, I don't want to look wider than all outdoors!
I had never heard of that movie and just watched the trailer. I need to watch the movie now! The sweater vest looks amazing and I've been looking for some crochet ideas for recreation videos. I am adding this to my list :) I also would have made the tan stripes thinner but it was down to 1 row so I couldn't get much smaller. That (to me) is the biggest difference between the sweater in the show and the one I made.
@@BreathingYarn I think that sweater vest actually would look amazing on you, mind you, don't make the arm holes too small - unless you're strictly going to wear it as a sleeveless shell/ tank top.. I think this movie was done in the earliest '60s and back then the shirt sleeves were skinny up around the armpit and so were the sweater vests. When the 70 came around sweater vests were still kind of tight in the armpits and the shirts were getting looser so it would pinch up the shirts. Once again sweater vests and jackets had to catch up with the styles of the new shirt collars and shirt sleeves. Oh, by the way, it's probably no wonder that you had not heard about that movie until now it's because you're a baby and I am 62 born in about the year the movie was made. I remember watching Goldie Hawn as a bikinied and painted go-go dancer on the show Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In. Do watch the movie the message in it is just as pertinent today as it ever was back then. Be yourself and don't let anyone dictate to you... whether you're a woman or if you're blind. They talked a lot of freedom and Independence but women were still treated as second-class Citizens and even in the hippie communities according to the works of Peter Coyotes two books about the hippie lifestyle and political statements they made, and no matter in which communal living situation, the women were washing the dishes cooking the meals, cleaning up in housekeeping, and taking care of the children as well as doing all the grocery shopping and all the prep and sign painting and everything else for their political whatever you call their rallies in sit-ins and LOVE-ins and whatever else they did, while men looked around drink beer and talk to sports or talked big dreams, tripped on acid or smoke pot. If they were on a communal Farm the women did farm work and all of the other stuff , whereas the men did some work in the fields and then came in and did the pre mentioned stuff. P.S. towards the end of the movie, sorry for the spoiler, she is leaving and she does walk around the apartment talk to him and you can get around about look at the sweater from several angles front back and sides then she leaves and then she comes back and the lighting is different and she has different action that shows different places in the sweater. And of course the movie ends with the potentiality of Happily Ever After. She was just a little bit slower coming to her realizations than he. Oops the play came out in 1969 'n the movie came out in 1972. I'm on Tinder hooks waiting for that video. I had requested for someone else to make that sweater and they never did respond to me. I'm grateful, for the reason I mentioned before about my eyes, I'm only 62 but I have a genetic cataract from birth in one of my eyes and I've had problems with high blood sugar since I got gestational diabetes when pregnant... which means all kinds of organ problems. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterflies_Are_Free#:~:text=Butterflies%20Are%20Free%20is%20a,for%20the%20screen%20by%20Gershe.
You're so awesome! I am just beaming reading this, it's so well thought out. Thank you! I cant wait to watch it. Even just watching the trailer, it felt like a movie I could fall in love with and I liked how it felt like a stage play.
@@BreathingYarn Goldie has a lot of good sense to share even though she's acting like a ditz in Cactus Flower. She's not the titular character, Bergman is, and you don't really find out why the movie is even called that until she realizes who she is because Walter Matthau hasn't figured out who he needs to be because, frankly, Goldie ain't done with him yet! Oh, and there is a starving artist next door to her little apartment, I think he's a novelist. And you got to see There's a Girl in My Soup with Peter Sellers. Make sure you do NOT miss Death Becomes Her with Meryl Streep. That movie kicks ass! The rapport between them is... it is magical! Bruce Willis's part is in the background but in the foreground as being very important at the same time. If you have seen it and it's been a while, thentreat yourself! No matter what movie she's in, there's always something important to say, and it gets said. Swing Shift is important as well. It's wild how she can play or act or sound like a ditz, but speak profoundly important things at odd times. In Cactus Flower when it finally slapped me in the forehead like I could have had a V8 moment I had to rewind it to listen to some of the things that hadn't hit me yet. I mean it's like they all of a sudden crescendoed and I realized oh my God she sounds like it ditz, I want to ignore her because she's talking about suicide because she's depressed, but she has all these important things to say, and then she gets all charged up again and gets a fresh breath of air, when the old man dentist Walter Matthau she's dating or was, begins to act a little bit right. She got two awards for that movie. We'll just watch me go I didn't know I had so much to say about Goldie what I said about her having something important to say is really the reason I like her so much. Heck anybody that can keep my sweetheart Kurt Russell happy for so many years has got to be one hell of a lady with a good head on her shoulders. www.britannica.com/biography/Goldie-Hawn
LOL. My family watched First Wives Club about a hundred times and I always loved Goldie's performance. I've seen few of her other movies and I love the idea of exploring her other films! I also love one of hollywoods longest standing couples. I've seen many Kurt Russel movies. @@kayceegreer4418
Belated Cast On Tip!!! Use stitch markers to keep track of how many stitches you have cast on :) I put a stitch marker on every 10 stitches, and try to mark off major numbers where needed (50, 100, etc).
I am a former goth from the 90s. I still wear a lot of black. It matches everything. I love that sweater. I have a thing with high necks, so I would have made it with a lower v-neck or square neck. I am on a mission right now to make socks for my self, but I will finish my sweater that I am making as well soon.
What IS IT about the cuteness of voids and how loving they are??? My Brigit Samedi is like velcro! I just burst out laughing when you put the mic up to Pippin(?)!
My favorite thing about your videos is that in every different shot you are wearing a different beautiful handknit sweater. They're all gorgeous and I know the feeling of wearing something you made that fits you and that you absolutely love!
Yess! I'm loving the recreations, I love knitting pieces from movies, series and pop culture too. I recently knitted princess Diana sheep Sweater.. I don't think people recognize it though, because I only get funny looks 😂
Thank you for defunking the horizontal stripe rule❤ I have had that cloud hanging over me for years. (Totally blame my mother for that) You are so cute in that striped sweater. I love that you shared all the challenges with your fans. Strut those stripes❤
I admit, I have not shaved my head, but all the rest I have done myself. I really don't understand people who have the same hair style for their whole lives. You are waaay more skilled than I am at making things, which I admire. Keep it up!
The sweater turned out great and you look great in it too ! Really enjoying your videos, you have a very calm voice and it's just so relaxing to hear you talk, and entertaining too !
I needed to hear what you had to say about horizontal stripes. I have this yarn that NEEDS to be a stripey sweater, but I'm not exactly small. I'm going to stop worrying about it. Thank you!
@@BreathingYarn I also forgot to say you looked adorable in that sweater, so now I'm wondering if it's more the construction/fit of the garment rather than the stripes? You found a fit that was perfect for you.
I have binge watched almost all of your videos! They are so relaxing and fun to watch, especially while I work on my own projects. I can't wait to see your channel grow!!
Catching up on your videos brings my daily dose of cat and I love it 🥰 Also: congrats on your sweater it's really good, I'm impressed by your perseverance! 👏😍
That birth comment is entirely true though. I forgot 3 times all the pain. I would agree with that comparison. Sweater babies make you forget all the struggles! Love your sweater!! It turned out amazing.
Great sweater ! When I need to cast on a large number of stitches, I put a stitch marker every 20 stitches while casting on to keep track without having to count everything.
I've been waiting all day to watch this video when I saw the upload this morning, it was my post uni assignment motivation. And I LOVE how the jumper turned out, so inspired to knit my first garment now :) Edit: I 100% know what you mean about the stripes! I haven't worn horizontal stripes since I was 14 and now I really want to make a jumper with them because you look so good in them!
I love knowing I’m not the only one that uses RUclips videos as a reward 😂 Thank you so much btw and I have to quote SpongeBob here “the best time to wear a striped sweater is all the time!”
Love love love this kind of video ! I'm currently replicating a store bought sweater for my sister. It's an emotional roller coaster ! I feel a lot less alone in my struggle since I watched your video, Thank you ! There are a lot of sweaters I would like to recreate, like Sabrina from the Netflix show "Chilling adventures of Sabrina". She has a tons of cute sweaters ! Looking forward to another video !
It’s so awesome that you’re recreating something from a store, that’s something I’ve been wanting to give a try. Also, you read my mind on the chilling adventures of Sabrina. I am in love with the costuming in that show and would love to try making a piece from it!
My daughters hair is so thick she has to have the undercut. I have shaved her undercut almost to the top of her ears and you couldn't even tell she had it when her hair was worn down. Love your sweater and how you show us the frustrating parts.
You DO look really cute in that sweater! It is so cute, and I love seeing your process of creating something based off image only. That Monica top is totally my style and I would LOVE to see you recreate it so I can copy it later ;)
It's so cute! Great job! I just started my knitting journey and I love watching your videos while I knit. It makes me feel like I'm crafting with a friend
Aweeee thank you for saying that! It’s why I started watching videos in the world of knitting 🧶 I wanted to feel a little less alone with the craft since (like most people) I don’t really have any friends/family that’s knits
The sweater turned out so gorgeous, you look amazing!!! I was looking for a next project and I might have to steal your idea lolol. Also I love your recreation videos!!
I watched this while sewing in a sleeve on my recreation of Phoebe's yellow lace cardigan! I have wanted this cardigan since I first saw it on the show and finally some time ago I decided "screw it, I can't buy this any more so I'll just _make it myself_. Just the rest of the sleeve sewing and the button band left to go! So high five for Friends knits!
I ABSOLUTELY love this and am inspired to recreate! I've ordered yarn and am going to make in Drops Lima. Thank you for sharing this!! Can you tell me how many rows of black you did between the stripes?
OMG good luck! I did 23 rows of black. The only thing I would change about how I did this is I wish I had joined the body in the round and done jogless stripes, but the seams arent bad.
@@BreathingYarn Thank you for the advice! I plan to knit it top down following the drop shoulder construction of leKnit's Porcelain Sweater Solo pattern. I love the construction of that pattern. So I guess if you see a random striped sweater in those ravelry projects for the Porcelain Sweater Solo in a couple months, it is probably me lol😅
Beautiful! I’m working on a pair of socks right now, but this makes me want to cast on a sweater when they are finished. I agree with not wanting to feel the sleeves when they are longer than the wrist, I always end up scrunching them up and then being annoyed when they fall. Have you thought about making the sleeves on your next sweater with 3/4 sleeves? I remember it being popular in the early 2000s, and that’s what I’m looking into for my next project.
You've got a great combo of talent and skills! If you decide to write the pattern, I will make one of those for myself! Also, money on cheese is always well spent. (Your tomato red sweater is beautiful on you. Your color palette has to be True Spring.)
You’re so sweet! Thank you. And I am planning to slowly start learning how to pattern write so I can start releasing some for these recreations. I want to make sure I can write a decadent pattern that’s size inclusive and ideally easy to follow 😂 might be a minute before I’m ready
I can relate so hard to challenging myself to make recreations of knitwear from media. I recently made a copy of the yellow turtleneck that David Bowie wears in the music video for I'm Afraid Of Americans. My next is the raglan fisherman rib sweater from the James Bond movie The Living Daylights.
Hi again :D It's me with another dopamine hit. I am the same with sleeves, but what's weird is that I like to have them long when I'm walking around, I like to be able to pull my hands all the way inside the sleeves but then when I'm walking I end up pulling most of my clothes up past my wrists cause I can't handle having things around my wrists when I'm working!
I'm sorry, but the first shot of Merry(?) followed immediately by you kneading that black yarn into water had me going HUH??? for a split second because my brain connected these two shots and thought you were washing the cat lmao
When one of the episodes of 30Rock where they go ice skating, Ravelry blew up with knitters trying to g to recreate Liz's scarf. So many of us want to recreate items from media!
Hello, Isabella, I like very much the way you recreated Rachel's sweater, your sweater also looks super and I like the combination of colours too, is special and it works very well. I'd like to recreate too some pieces that I watch in TV shows. I'm curious if you watched the excellent series "Only Murders in the Building", is very good and interesting and Selena Gomez is wearing some gorgeous knitted sweaters and cardigans in the show, I think there are hand made. Thank you for this episode too, your energy and ideas are so inspiring! 😊🤗❤
I'm kinda interested on how close to the original film the musical adaptation is. Musicals tend to tone down things quite a lot but I've heard the original 80s film is a pretty hard watch
Do you have any tips for setting aside several hours for knitting on weekends? I also work full-time and end up having to focus on chores/recovering from the work week on weekends.
Therapy mostly helped me. I had to decide the apartment didn’t have to be perfectly clean all the time. It was (and still is) hard to shift my priorities there. I also used to scroll on my phone for an hour a day. I deleted those apps and now have a spare hour of my day. It’s nothing really magical/revolutionary. You’ve likely heard all this before. It is hard for me to accept that I can’t actually do all the things so I have to decide to do the things most important to me. I can’t cook dinner and clean and kick butt at work and knit a sweater and squeeze in a workout all in one day. Some things had to go.
I love knitting and crocheting, but making clothes stresses me out. This video just reconfirms that, even though it's enjoyable to watch, lol. I'm sticking with blankets, hats, and scarves. Lol.
😊 I was a Teenager in the 90s and we all wore that Jumper. At least in Switzerland. Of course not selfmade. You did a great job! It's just for a person my age.... why would you bring that back 😅 guess 70s children asked themselfes the same thing as we tried to recreate theire clothing
You can always unravel your swatch and use it in your project 😊 or make a swatch blanket made up of all the swatches you’ve ever made. But also, the world won’t come crashing down if you don’t swatch. You do you! 😊

They really aren't that many granny squares in it and I think there may be a triangle or two.
BTW, is it that you are sensitive to the lanolin or the texture of the wool? Great job on the Rachel sweater. I think I would have made the tan stripes smaller were it me. I'm wide enough, I don't want to look wider than all outdoors!

This is the first video of yours that I watched and I kept getting distracted (positively) by how adorably clingy your cat is!

OMG good luck! I did 23 rows of black. The only thing I would change about how I did this is I wish I had joined the body in the round and done jogless stripes, but the seams arent bad.
@@BreathingYarn Thank you for the advice! I plan to knit it top down following the drop shoulder construction of leKnit's Porcelain Sweater Solo pattern. I love the construction of that pattern. So I guess if you see a random striped sweater in those ravelry projects for the Porcelain Sweater Solo in a couple months, it is probably me lol😅
Beautiful! I’m working on a pair of socks right now, but this makes me want to cast on a sweater when they are finished. I agree with not wanting to feel the sleeves when they are longer than the wrist, I always end up scrunching them up and then being annoyed when they fall. Have you thought about making the sleeves on your next sweater with 3/4 sleeves? I remember it being popular in the early 2000s, and that’s what I’m looking into for my next project.
You did amazing ❤ I absolutely like the stripes ❤ also your shaved had pictures were really cute too😁
Omg thank you!!! I miss being a no hair lady often 😄
I want your sweater. It is beautiful!
I have pictures on my phone of the fair isle sweaters from All Creatures Great and Small ❤
I’m obsessed!! (pls do a Phoebe sweater at some point too)
That’s an absolute MUST. Phoebe is by far my favorite character and the rest of the group didn’t deserve her 🥰
You've got a great combo of talent and skills! If you decide to write the pattern, I will make one of those for myself! Also, money on cheese is always well spent.
(Your tomato red sweater is beautiful on you. Your color palette has to be True Spring.)
You’re so sweet! Thank you. And I am planning to slowly start learning how to pattern write so I can start releasing some for these recreations. I want to make sure I can write a decadent pattern that’s size inclusive and ideally easy to follow 😂 might be a minute before I’m ready
I can relate so hard to challenging myself to make recreations of knitwear from media. I recently made a copy of the yellow turtleneck that David Bowie wears in the music video for I'm Afraid Of Americans. My next is the raglan fisherman rib sweater from the James Bond movie The Living Daylights.
That’s so awesome! And iconic
Hi again :D It's me with another dopamine hit.
I am the same with sleeves, but what's weird is that I like to have them long when I'm walking around, I like to be able to pull my hands all the way inside the sleeves but then when I'm walking I end up pulling most of my clothes up past my wrists cause I can't handle having things around my wrists when I'm working!
Also, I totally want to make one of these. My dream is to recreate the oversized sweater that Rory wears in the first episode of Gilmore girls.
I'm sorry, but the first shot of Merry(?) followed immediately by you kneading that black yarn into water had me going HUH??? for a split second because my brain connected these two shots and thought you were washing the cat lmao
LOL!
When one of the episodes of 30Rock where they go ice skating, Ravelry blew up with knitters trying to g to recreate Liz's scarf. So many of us want to recreate items from media!
OMG yes. I remember in high school, all of my friends were really into Dr.Who and everybody wanted a Dr.Who knit scarf!
I love your cat ❤
It turned out great!! How many skeins of black did you use? :)
6 or 7 I think
@@BreathingYarn thank you! 😊
Hello, Isabella, I like very much the way you recreated Rachel's sweater, your sweater also looks super and I like the combination of colours too, is special and it works very well. I'd like to recreate too some pieces that I watch in TV shows. I'm curious if you watched the excellent series "Only Murders in the Building", is very good and interesting and Selena Gomez is wearing some gorgeous knitted sweaters and cardigans in the show, I think there are hand made. Thank you for this episode too, your energy and ideas are so inspiring! 😊🤗❤
Thank you. And I love only murders in the building. The sweaters in that show are so fun and beautiful. I’d love love love to make one of them!!!
😊❤️
I’m pressing like before I finish the video because of the cat hahah
This is her channel, she just lets me talk in the background 😂
I'm kinda interested on how close to the original film the musical adaptation is. Musicals tend to tone down things quite a lot but I've heard the original 80s film is a pretty hard watch
Me too. I haven’t seen the original yet but the musical still dealt with some heavy scenes while keeping it pretty digestible.
Do you have any tips for setting aside several hours for knitting on weekends? I also work full-time and end up having to focus on chores/recovering from the work week on weekends.
Therapy mostly helped me. I had to decide the apartment didn’t have to be perfectly clean all the time. It was (and still is) hard to shift my priorities there. I also used to scroll on my phone for an hour a day. I deleted those apps and now have a spare hour of my day. It’s nothing really magical/revolutionary. You’ve likely heard all this before. It is hard for me to accept that I can’t actually do all the things so I have to decide to do the things most important to me. I can’t cook dinner and clean and kick butt at work and knit a sweater and squeeze in a workout all in one day. Some things had to go.
I love knitting and crocheting, but making clothes stresses me out. This video just reconfirms that, even though it's enjoyable to watch, lol. I'm sticking with blankets, hats, and scarves. Lol.
That’s how I feel about blankets. I’ll stick to happily watching someone else make them 🥰
😊 I was a Teenager in the 90s and we all wore that Jumper. At least in Switzerland. Of course not selfmade. You did a great job! It's just for a person my age.... why would you bring that back 😅 guess 70s children asked themselfes the same thing as we tried to recreate theire clothing
I feel the same seeing teenagers around me wearing clothes from the early 2000s and I cringe so hard 😂
@@BreathingYarn 😂
when you got to picking up the sleeves i was like "oh, it's almost finished". and then i looked at the timestamp and it was 12 mins out of 40 :|
I lovee the idea of swatching but my brain tells me that its a waste of yarn?? Idk please tell me i am wrong 😩
You can always unravel your swatch and use it in your project 😊 or make a swatch blanket made up of all the swatches you’ve ever made. But also, the world won’t come crashing down if you don’t swatch. You do you! 😊
I’m watching 90210 reruns, and the illustrious Kelly Taylor also wore this sweater in episode “Up In Flames” 🤍🤎🖤
That’s awesome 😂
