    Jonathan your knits are always 10 out of 10! As is your podcast, and NOW your designs will be too no doubt! I would definitely knit that top pattern of yours. I see in the comments there's an unofficial naming so I'm going to throw in a suggestion: Forge Ahead. Have a wonderful time in Mexico!

    Your pink yoke sweater is awesome. The stripe makes it fun. The sweater you are wearing plus the baby’s soufflé are sooo pretty.

    Jonathan your design is lovely! I can see it in a darker grey with green stripes or even yellow brick road! Gorgeous That would be a yes! I love that painting behind you! Omg I have so many single skeins of fingering yarn…. Crazy stuff

    So fun to watch your design in progress! I envy you that you can knit on planes. I've given up trying. I just don't feel comfortable and there usually isn't enough light for me. Have a great trip!

    Yes, your sweater pattern would definitely be one to make. I have a special skein that I am waiting for the right pattern and as soon as I saw this, I was like, thats it, I have to have it. Will be keeping my eye out for when its released. Love your podcast, and Laura's. I found you both at roughly the same time and love the interaction between the 2. Have a lovely holiday and I eagerly await your first design.

    Hi Jonathan,
    Your Vellichor looks fantastic. I think you just inspired me to knit that for the Woolly Thistle's KAL. I love the color combo that you got at Stephen & Penelope. Those greens 💚. Your stripey yoke design is also very nice. I think folks would love it! Have you seen Jared Floods new Shadow Stripe pullover? I am in love with it. The shoulder detail and micro stripes are gorgeous 😍. Have a lovely trip to Mexico!

    O man you take my breath away, everything you showed was my cup of tea,even the colors was 😘😘😘I'm a turquoise girl.Have made myself a turquoise 40th lace sweater and have bought myself a pair of high heels in black and honey yellow suide with a 3 cm stone in black,turquoise,grey/white in the middle of the sandal.Block heel .The Funfetti sweater is both classy, sassy and happy looking. Looking forward to see your Funfetti done. Wow congratulation to your own designed sweater- the way you made the yoke pattern made it look like it's done with mohair. This episode was 10/10. Don't go to Mexico stay with us instead😉 Can't wait ti'l you're back in England again. Thx a thousand times . Stay free stay crafting. Grettings from North of Sweden. 🦋🤍🦅🤍🦋

      Pssst...I believe that it is you who should choose the name of your all by yourself designed sweater. Yey I say yes to the irish name,even if you never told us. I'm sure it's a fantastic name 🤗🦋🙂

  • @saraw8503
    @saraw8503 2 года назад

    I live in coastal North Carolina (US). We have wicked hot summers and mild winters. I have concentrated heavily on summer sweaters (cotton and linen) this summer. I have finished another Ranunculus, Anker’s summer tee, and Rift. Loved them all but now doing easy v which is knit with worsted weight yarn. There will be limited opportunity to wear it but looking forward to doing so. I have the yarn and pattern to start caribou hills. This podcast was especially enjoyable. Thanks.

  • @angieanderson6082
    @angieanderson6082 2 года назад

    Enjoy your trip to Mexico City!! I like knitting on planes, too, but the hum of the engines usually puts me to sleep. 🤣. I’m just about to split for sleeves (🤩) on my first fingering weight tee that has lace (😳) I kinda can’t believe I’ve done it. LOL! It’s the Moon Glade Tee by RowRowAndKades. It’s going to be gorgeous!!

  • @littlejessicad
    @littlejessicad 2 года назад

    So I took your challenge last video personally, it was the first video of yours that I had watched. I immediately went back and started binge watching from the beginning. I've spent the last two days catching up and knitting my Birch Pullover (by DRK, of course). I am extremely similar in that whenever I yarn shop, a magical skein of fingering weight just happens to fall into my basket for socks. My sock stash is endless🤣. Anyways, thank you for the entertaining videos, I've loved following along with your knitting journey!

    I would love to knit that sweater you designed.
    I have knitted socks and other smaller projects during warmer summer days. We also had very cold for few weeks so I have also knitted swater and merino leggings for colder part of year.
    Now I’m starting to knit new cozy memories blanket and I did knit part of first squere with you
    Have fun trip!

    Do it! Write it! I think you will feel really proud of yourself and it will give a great boost to something you clearly love already. I'll probably make it for my husband, he'll love it. Also: Irish names. Yes please 😄

    @roslynyeomans5544 2 года назад +3

    Love your podcasts: Simple solution to have a center pull - using a winder, rewind the yarn into a cake … and better yet, rewind both skeins of yarn together and you’ll have a double-stranded cake.
    PS: I always rewind my yarn anyway to find any knots or flaws.

    @leannastoufer6333 2 года назад

    Your Vellichor pullover is beautiful! The colors and texture work so well together (fingering weight color work does come out so well)! AND, I absolutely love your design. I would definitely make that for myself -- maybe the same colors, probably something a little darker overall. I really like the popped striping, because it just adds so much interest! Enjoy playing with cables too! Thank you for sharing your journey. ✨

  • @brandiquin3484

    @tyanneagle4630 2 года назад

    Your sweater design is beautiful. I love that morganite with the gray. It is not a sweater I could wear because a high crew neck doesn’t work with my short neck but I do really like your stripes with slipped stitches.

    Your design is great, I think it's pretty awesome that you are spreading your creative wings. I have been knitting more garments, but as I'm a big girl, it can be expensive and take awhile. I am trying to finish a Casapinka "tee shirt" before school starts again (I'm a teacher), but I doubt it will happen....

  • @barrylaurastueve4380
    @barrylaurastueve4380 2 года назад

    I have heard of a knitting shop in Mexico City. My son was in Mexico City pre pandemic and saw one on the neighborhood around the cathedral. He was remembering it recently as a store which opened to the street with like a garage door. He remembers all the ladies knitting to the outdoors. He arrived early for a school trip to go to the Trotsky museum and Frida Kahlo house. They were lovers, I believe. Anyway, that being said, maybe it is still there in the old city.
    He didn’t have yarn for mom money in the budget, sadly.

  • @knitwit2871
    @knitwit2871 2 года назад +7

    The soufflé was never my personal style but I’ve wanted to make it soooo bad, now that I know there’s a baby version I will for sure be making it for a friend 😂

    Hi Jonathan: I love the sweater that you are designing. I think I would be interested although I'm not very knowledgable about short rows. I am so glad you decided to continue podcasting. You kept me company going through cancer treatments and I look forward to watching you. You do such beautiful work.

    Lovely podcast again and yes, there's always room for a skein of sock yarn. You can never ever have too much sock yarn I think, you will always want to knit and wear socks. I do the same thing and my sock yarn stash is enormous 😅 but I always just think; it's an apocalyptic skill, 2 sticks and sock yarn and at least my feet won't get cold when I can't afford my heating bills anymore (because I bought yarn, obviously)

    • @JonathansDays
      @JonathansDays  2 года назад

      You are so right! People will always need socks! If the apocalypse comes I’d have to get even faster at making them though 😅

    @jillfoster6369 2 года назад

    That was brilliant Jonathan. Love, love, love your finished pullover. Really something else and your “ no name” swear we looks a perfect knit so looking forward to seeing the finished result. Your little cards remind me of the ATCs (Artist Trading Cards) which a super to do. I don’t think it matters what you use them for as they just look so cute. Your acquisitions are lovely and so is the start of the baby jumper. Also love the other colour you have for one. I am still knitting sweet little animals from a book by Louise Crowther and loving them. Have a super time on your next jolly. It sounds like lots of knitting will get done on the journey out and back - might be too hot when you are there🙈 but what fun it will all be.🌻

    I knit the veilicore in Mexico earlier this year! It was a surprisingly long knit for such a small garment. I was at S&P a few weeks ago and got a sweaters worth of Walk. Such a great store! If you ever end up in The Hague Cross and Woods is an excellent yarn shop

    I love, love, love your first sweater design…..Yes!!! I would buy your pattern. Wow, Jonathan….you are awesome! Great Podcast with so much information….the book looks amazing, as well. Just a side comment: I just learned how to do brioche…who said it was simple? 😬 I loved seeing all the 🧶. I live 15 minutes from Jimmy Bean Yarn Shop that is located in Reno, NV (USA)…..I hope they carry some yarn that you’ve shown. I’ll find out today. I loved the greens and navy blue …swoon! Have a safe and enjoyable trip, Jonathan! See you next time!! Hugs…🤗❤️🙋

    I don’t keep track of my projects with those cards in specific, but I do have a notebook where I keep all of the same information. I still keep my Ravelry project pages up to date, but if any thing were to happen to the site, I want to be sure that my notes won’t be lost. My notebooks are organized by year, so I’m able to easily look at all of my projects from a particular year.
    As for goals, I’m planning on finishing 30 sweaters this year. I currently have 21 done with 3 on my needles. I’m not exclusively a sweater knitter so next years goals will likely include other things too

  • @erisisthename

    I absolutely love your most recent yarn purchases. You’ve also inspired me to look up the Vellicore (did I spell that correctly?) pattern for myself, and a friend. Too, I’d thoroughly enjoy test knitting your sweater pattern! I’m a beginner knitter. I hope you Mexico City.

  • @leescott3300
    @leescott3300 2 года назад

    Loved the sweater you were wearing - I think I’m would be cool in a cotton blend for an Aussie summer T so will start looking for yarn for that. Your first sweater design is great - I love pink and grey together too so if you release it I’d be using similar colours. I’m currently testing Rebecca’s Cargill sweater - the testing process is fun for the testers - and hopefully the designer too. Have a great time in Mexico and stay safe. Looking forward to hearing all about it next podcast.

    I love your vest I think you should try wearing a black or a medium to dark shade of blue T-shirt underneath. Especially as we move towards winter I think it would be great even a long sleeved black or navy blue T-shirt would look terrific.
