Not only is your Snowy Forest just fine, but I actually like it better! I hate when the yoke is too deep, otherwise every time you lift your arms the whole sweater lifts up. Now you can play with the yoke depth to fit as you like it. You are making me want to knit this sweater! It is so gorgeous!
I totally agree about the trend of armholes hitting below the under-bust ~ or even down around the waist line. How does a person function when their arms are stuck down around their hips like little penguin flippers? I love the Snowy Forest design, but I'm debating adding it to my library because of all the time and work involved in rewriting the yoke depth & where to split the sleeves... to make it wearable for me.
The beginning was precious❤ pretty sure you were blushing😉! Anyways it just put me in a good mood right from the start😊. Now I am filled with inspiration for the weekend too, thank you!
Hi Kaci, happy 2024! Your sweaters are beautiful. You have a lot on your plate right now so it seems appropriate to focus on a few things instead of many. I’m glad your father is progressing. Please take care of yourself too. 😘
Your Snowy Forest looks perfect to me. The yarn you spun is gorgeous and I love the Cormor braid color! What fun you will have spinning that up. Thank you for another great podcast.
Thank you for explaining the short rows. I had to watch it twice to fully understand but it was so helpful. Your knits are always so stunning! And your spinning as a life to it that is so beautiful. Happy knitting 💚🧶💚
Kaci, I really admire how you can change a sweater pattern to fit your wants and needs. As always your color choices are the best. That fiber you spun is AMAZING. I could not believe how gorgeous those two fibers were together. Take care
I think, on me, your same depths cables would look better than the increasing depth ones of the original. I have a large bust and think the bigger cables at the bust would just make my chest look bigger than it already is. Not necessarily a bad thing, but not my preference on me. I think your cables look lovely as they are. What a great yarn-pattern combo! It’s nice that you are interested in hearing what we are all knitting on. As for current projects, I’m working on a Lanark for my husband. It’s taking a lot of knitting because of the HFR and also because my row gauge is only about 2/3rds of that stated in the pattern. That makes for a more dense knit, I think. Watching Rebecca’s review of most-worn sweaters this morning, her Lanarks look far more open-gauged than mine. The yarn is a merino possum blend from Australia - it’s gorgeous and squishy so am hoping all the purling will be worth it in the end. It should be super-warm, which is good for our living conditions. We live in a big old cold house in Yorkshire - my husband always tells visitors ‘Bring warm sweaters and wear your long-sleeved bra!’ 😂
I still write checks, mostly to church or taxes.😅 I always go ahead and write the year on several checks. I was working at Kroger near Memphis, in 1999. We were dreading the new year, so I made sure I was off that day! 😂 I do the sleeves before finishing the body as well. I now knit sleeves TAAT, game changer!
I love how you are modifying the Snowy Forest pullover! The " mistake" you made would make it more wearable for me as deep yoke sweaters tend to lift too much at the bottom when iraise my arms. Adjusting the raglan area is perfect. Love the circular yoke with raglan increases for that feature. Wow! Thank you so much for the tutorial doing short rows in the ribbing area!
What a fabulous episode ! I loved everything, your noro sweater, that gorgeous color of the hat, the snowy forest woooow. And your fiber is just fantastic, I can’t wait to see you use it ! Thank you for cheering up my Friday evening
Ellen Lewis from Crazy for Ewe taught me to pick a size based on UPPER bust like under your underarms if you are over a C cup bra. This helps the sweater not look way too big at the end. Every time I don't follow that I am pissed my sweater looks huge. Maybe this can help you pick a size for your Snowy Forest!!! Thank you for sharing as always
Kaci, I love your snowy forest sweater and it’s going to be beautiful! I know, isn’t it frustrating when we make a silly mistake by not continuing to read the pattern😅. Your cardigan is also beautiful. Thx for another wonderful podcast.
Hey Kaci, WOW to that handspun😮! Super gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing how you add short rows, I think I will definitely give that a try. I would have had 0 courage to do that all by myself 😅. Such a cute hat!!! Love all your colors….. happy knitting!
Thank you for sharing the short row method in your ribbing: it was great and I hope to try it sometime soon! As always, your knits are lovely. (And your husband is adorable 😊)
I have GOT to cast on a snowy forest!! And thank you for outlining how you added in the short rows to the ribbing - so helpful! That Cormo braid color is to DIE for. Can't wait to watch you spin it up!
I love the Snowy Forest, but I’ve stayed away from it because a deep yoke is just not the most wearable for me. But I actually think your mistake may be just the solution for me!! Maybe this will land on my needles now. 😍
Kaci, I completely understand what you say you need a win. I recently felt the same way and frogged several projects because it felt like they were all moving slowly, they were no longer enjoyable and going poorly. 😣 I loved ❤love your cardigan. Keep up the great work.
So so good to catch up with you Kaci! Loved all your projects! Especially your Snowy Forest! It’s absolutely dreamy! And love your edit! Its totally something I would have done too!! Cheers to a knitty 2024 my friend! ❤
Thank you for sharing your wips and fo i always look forward to whats going on your honesty and you inspire me to try different patterns 😊 and that its ok to try different things and make them your own. 😊
Your WIP's are turning out nicely. I think your plan to add an extra cable to end up with the correct number of rows is a good solution. Love your hand spun fiber. Looking forward to seeing the braid spun up and turned into a cardigan. ❤
THAT HANDSPUN IS GORGEOUS!!!! I'm 100% with you on all the dusty colors, earthy pinks, rusty browns, deep forest greens, etc. etc. Your Snowy Forest cable distribution looks lovely! Great job on the short row shaping in the ribbing. Take care!~Stephanie
Happy New Year! That man of yours is a definite keeper!😀 Remembering my time as a paediatric nurse, being a bit older than most of the staff I often did the Christmas morning shift to give the younger women the morning with their children , present opening etc. same with New Year. Now I’m retired every day is a holiday! 😂 Love the yarn on your sweater, a surprising colour for you? It’s going to be gorgeous. As for the cables and the short row maths I’m afraid that all went right over my head! Lovely to have another real podcast to watch among all the very similar vlogmases we’ve had recently.
I too am cold all the time and am the joke of my two knitting groups. As one person takes off a sweater, I’m thinking of putting on my third layer.😂 You might find Clara Parkes post on the Wool Channel: Is Cotton Better than Cashmere for Winter? It’s another perspective. Yet another wonderful episode. Happy New Year🎉
your combo spin looks stunning! For Snowy Mountain, the cables look nice but would look even nicer with each progressively more rounds -- however I get it that you just want to move forward. Hope you get the result you wanted!
I was in Bangladesh in 1999. On the dot of midnight the power went off. It was pretty freaky and for a wee while we were like is this it…..but just the usual power sharing power cuts.
love this episode! you were great company while i did a bunch of fiddly finishings on a sweater that i'm giving to my mom for her birthday tomorrow!!! also, your handspun is so pretty and always inspires me to keep spinning!
Amy Palko also added short row shaping in the neck ribbing on her new poncho pattern so I am anxious to try it. It looks like it worked out well for you new sweater in progress. I can not find the Kaleidoscope pattern or even a kit for that sweater. I would rather just have the pattern. Love your podcast. You make me want to have my toenails painted and learn to spin but I can't go down another rabbit hole.
Your Snowy Forest yoke is gorgeous! Your solution sounds perfect. I recently made a Solare by Joji Locateli which has even cables in the yoke, and it is a favorite knit.
Love the custom fiber you had made, the color is gorgeous. Thank you for the explanation on how you created your short rows. I am still trying to wrap my brain around the construction of short rows. I have used them in patterns but never tried to include them in a pattern that didnt come with them. I too hate the sweaters riding up on the fronts so I know I need them always if I am going to like the fit. Happy New Year Casy!
Happy New Year Kaci! Your cables in the Snowy Forest Sweater look just fine as is and it sounds like you have a great plan how to proceed. That yarn is gorgeous! Also thank you for sharing how you do short-row shaping in neck ribbing, because I also hate wearing sweaters without short rows at the neck and try to avoid such patterns. I am slogging away on the Lunenburg Pullover by Amy Christoffers and just finished the very intense colorwork yoke, so on to straight stockinette, yay! Looking forward to seeing your 2024 projects.
I have a question about the cables getting longer on the yoke: "Are y'all going to carry a picture of the pattern around with you whenever you wear the sweater and tell everyone 'this is how the cables were written, but I made it my own'?" If not, all people are going to see is what a talented knitter you are, and how amazing you look in *your version* of the sweater.
Hi Kaci, I think your Snowy Forest looks fine. Love the colour and I think you would also like one I recently test knit, the Donna Jenna by Joanna Ang which was a very quick knit 😊
I'm really interested to see what you do with the Snowy Forest Sweater now. The yoke depth looks very long in the picture, which I find hard to work with a large bust adjustment. Do you think you'll split for the sleeves sooner and possibly decrease under the bust? Looking forward to seeing how this works out!
I love the color you chose for your sweater spin. Assuming your braids are 4 ounces each I would recommend you get a few more more braids. I wear a medium sweater and would not try to get a long cardigan out of 16 ounces of fiber. With spinning your yarn tends to be denser and therefore your weight does not go as far. For comparison, I spun 8 ounces of a DK weight, fiber, and I’m not sure I can get a Tolsta tee out of it.
Extra cable row would look good..guess you will have to see what it looks like between 7-8 hard to say. Closer fit may look better. Your short row explanation is good but my sinus is blocked I will have to watch again. Your colors are so nice
Hi Kaci, thank you for an other beautiful episode. I think I got the handspun bug 😅 you had mentioned in an other episode that you took some online classes (if I remember correctly). Would it be possible to share those with me please or maybe refer me to an episode that you did mention it? Have a nice day!
If you haven’t already you should watch the Black Sheep Knitter episode 1 at about 9:50 she talks about her dilemma with the sweater then in episode 2 at about 35:55 and then finally episode 3. Hopefully it will help you avoid sadness.
Hi Kaci, I have tried to buy the kaleidoscope sweater kit a few times but wasn’t able to. Did you get it as a kit or did you make your own kit ? Thanks so much ❤
Ooo, if you have cold feet the Sandnesgarn double slippers in Drops Alaska or maybe lettlopi are so toasty! Make sure you read the comments as the English pattern is terribly written
adding short rows is great accomodation esp beacuse with warm sweater you don't want a big opening - you'd probably wear it when cold.... but I would go back and do each cable set longer - yours doesn't look strange or bad or anything because of that equal cables- just "too normal" - you loose a beautiful feature of the design- my opinion, sorry
1999 was the year I learned what anxiety was because my 9 year old self thought asteroids were going to hit the earth and kill us all on Y2K 🥲 so glad we survived!! Haha

I hope
It turns out we’ll’
@@CrazyAuntValI understand!
@@paperknitsI’m hopeful
He’s not wrong, you really are gorgeous and sooo talented!!
Awwww thank you
Your husband is the sweetest!
Thank you ❤❤
Kaci, I love your idea of adding your short row shaping to the rib at the bottom of your collar! Thank you for sharing this awesome idea with us😃
Glad it was helpful!
Another great video. Thanks for sharing your short explanation-very helpful.
So much variety in this episode! The beginning was SO SWEET!
Lol. Yes, I agree.
Thank you ❤❤❤😅
How cute is he but the look on your face is so precious…🥰
He is a sweetie
I gasped when you pulled up your giant hank from your combo spin. It is STUNNING.
❤❤❤❤ thanks!
The executive producer is so sweet - and you ARE beautiful! 😊
Oh thank you!
The beginning was precious❤ pretty sure you were blushing😉! Anyways it just put me in a good mood right from the start😊. Now I am filled with inspiration for the weekend too, thank you!
Oh thank you! 😊
I would never think to ply those two colors together…what a super result! Well done. 🎉
Thanks so much! 😊

Your fleece that you spun up is beautiful. Cannot wait to see the finished knit.
Thank you ❤❤❤

Thanks friend!
I love your snowy forest! Mine is one of my favorite sweaters I’ve knit. ❤
It's such a fun pattern!
this fiber braid at the end is the most wonderful colour in th world! I'm absolutely amazed and I now want to start spinning :D
You can do it!
I love the Snowy Forest, but I’ve stayed away from it because a deep yoke is just not the most wearable for me. But I actually think your mistake may be just the solution for me!! Maybe this will land on my needles now. 😍

Cormo is the best most fun fiber to spin- I love the springiness of it! That rose color will make a beautiful cardigan Kaci!
I think so too!
P.S. That combo spun yarn!!! ❤❤❤
Simply gorgeous! Great call, Kaci. (I'd buy that colorway in a heartbeat.)

Hi Kaci, I think your Snowy Forest looks fine. Love the colour and I think you would also like one I recently test knit, the Donna Jenna by Joanna Ang which was a very quick knit 😊
I'll check it out!
I'm really interested to see what you do with the Snowy Forest Sweater now. The yoke depth looks very long in the picture, which I find hard to work with a large bust adjustment.

I’m 5’1” and thank you for your mistake…I also casted on a snowy forest but was really worried about the yoke length…..problem solved! Thank you!

Where are you on your buy me flowers shawl and cardigan?
I’ve just cast on my cardigan and I’ll show more on my shawl next episode. Those video just got really long on me haha
I love the Kaleidoscope Cardigan but I can't find the pattern on their website
I talked to them and they said to email them for the pattern
What's that in the bathroom? Spooky.
Charts at hospital.... we are still handwriting then here and i always make this mistake to!
Really! Hand written charts were great!
Cables look just fine. It was a design element you didn’t incorporate.

I don't think anything looks weird about the sweater you are making.
Thanks!
Hospital, do you work at a hospital along with everything else?
