4 Autumn Sweaters I'm Knitting Now. 🍁

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Happy Sunday everyone! I have lots to share and I've linked to everything in the description box, but I'm going to link to it here as well to make it easy. In regards to my 'quiet rebellion' tee, the term 'rebellion' here is simply a nod to the importance of slow fashion over fast and handmade craftsmanship and quality over mass-produced. Of course, it can mean whatever you want it to mean. ❤ The Quiet Rebellion Tee: www.woolneedleshands.com/merch/p/quiet-rebellion-unisex-100-cotton-tee Isager Eco Soft Yarn: www.woolandcompany.com/yarn/l...

“Because I am my own Crafter.” I’m going to use that. Well done video

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you. ❤️❤️

[@Katepwe]

Now, THAT is a great line!

[@KnitandGrace]

I’m also working in multiple sweaters at a time at the moment and setting milestones for myself! That Stripe Hype is stunning and now I want to try to squeeze one in for my LBFWKAL. I’m so easily influenced. 😅

[@beverlyhess611]

“BECAUSE I am my own crafter”…kinda like “I am the boss of my project”! Love both and definitely will use that too!

[@alekfelis]

I'm 'working' on one sweater already almost whole year, but always opened for inspiration ☺

[@rushiaj1222]

I did a cardigan and it took me a year and a half. I finished it in the middle of summer 😂

[@alekfelis]

@@rushiaj1222 🥰At least you finished it! Did you still liked it at the end or changed your mind during the process? I didn't wanted my first project to be too complicated, but then I got really bored, I can't believe I'll have to spend days and days of doing similar stitches!

[@niknaiman5359]

Your tangents just keep me coming back. The fact that you add music while you're venturing off down some rabbit hole makes me giggle every time. Thank you for being so you.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

I’m always happy to see you in the comments and know that you’re enjoying the episodes Nik. Thank YOU. ❤️❤️

[@jonellesandel1066]

Hahaha when you asked Siri for a better word for rustic, my Siri turned on and found the info 😂. Great videos as usual!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Siri strikes again! 😎 Thank you for watching Jonelle!

[@ShehnazKhan1]

Can I just say how much I love that you love and appreciate (and knit) with lower cost and commercial yarn just as much as you do hand-dyed/indie yarn? I feel like there is too much focus on hand-dyed yarn in the knitting podcast world. It's not sustainable for everyone to only ever knit sweaters with a $30 /skein yarn. And I'm saying this as someone who is not "low-income". I am from a middle-income household, but there is no way I am going to knit multiple sweaters a year that all cost like $200 in just supplies. So thank you for showing that commercial yarn can also make sweaters that are just beautiful!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Oh, my pleasure indeed! I hear you and agree with everything you're saying. I'm proud to lend a voice to that and open the door to knitters who either don't want to or cannot afford the higher end yarn options. ❤️

[@carolinedubose5136]

Wow!! You've been knitting up a storm!! It'll be great to have 4 new sweaters for your wardrobe!!

[@ccpperrett7522]

Another wonderful visit with Taylor. I love Paton and Lion Brand yarn. Once againyou have inspired me to knit more beautiful sweaters. I now have seven lovely grandchildren to knit for. So there is no end of possibilities in my future. Six granddaughters and one grandson.❤Lots of love to go around. So far I have managed to knit socks, mittens and hats, with one baby sweater just completed. Time to cast on another baby sweater for the second and newest granddaughter this year. God has truly blessed me. The first and number one granddaughter just started high school. 😊 One happy Alaska granny.❤

[@thelittlewolfknits1580]

it's actually called a contiguous sweater construction!! modular would be separate bound off pieces that get picked up - like a lincoln log blanket

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Ah thank you! That makes more sense!

[@lisanakao1043]

Mojo means progress. ❤enjoying having my mojo back.

[@AdeleFidlan]

Re: neck of your EUN sweater. If it starts to stretch too much, you could stabilise the shape where you like it by adding some crochet chain on the inside to reinforce.

[@michelleenzenroth8162]

As I was a crocheter first I am curious. Is this done by doing a slip stitch chain at the bottom of the neckline? (inside, of course) Just wondering...

[@heatherstiara8033]

I’ve been working on a sweater since late July and I just split for the sleeves. Granted, I am an obsessed sock knitter and I work on my sweater passively. I’m also knitting a 3x. And plus size knits take longer. So when I see people knitting smaller sizes, I understand they can knit it faster because there are less stitches. 😊 hopefully I’ll get motived to finish my sweater before it’s summer again 😅

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Yes! Absolutely. And I think this is important to remember. We all have different things that factor into our work and size of project is a major one. ❤️

[@maddyearhart]

Lucky Tweed is such lovely yarn!! It has suchh beautiful drape and it really softens when it's blocked, as long as it's not worked up too tightly

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Ooo this is great news! Thank you for sharing this. I have zero experience with it and was wondering about the drape after washing. 🙏🙏❤️❤️

[@PamKnitsToo]

So good to see you excited about your knitting again. I got the feeling that over the summer you lost your knitting mojo and I was missing it. I love all your sweaters - very exciting to have 4 sweaters on your needles. I am looking forward to all the finished knitwear ❤

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you Pam. ❤️ My knitting typically slows down with the onset of the hot weather here, but it never fails to return come late august. Thank you for sticking with me. ❤️

[@karenalbery2773]

Thank you for just giving me permission to start 4 more sweaters! Though i will probably have to get some of your new tshirts in the meantime because those 4 new sweaters will now make my knitting wip pile 4 times slower😊

[@mollierolin5389]

I love watching your podcast because i feel like all your projects are realistic and attainable in number, speed, difficulty, yarn choice ect and if not you say that it might not be. I love getting caught up in the clouds of inspiration on IG but sometimes once you float back down to reality you’re discontent with it but this keeps me happily working at my own pace on projects that are practical and personal to me.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

I am SO glad to read this. It means a lot to me. Being inspired is always fulfilling, but sometimes it can overwhelm. I’m glad this can be not only a place to find inspiration, but also a soft place to land when reality sets in. Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@jamiethrogmorton2540]

In my opinion that neck style fits the lines of the rest of the sweater, and it looks pretty on you. Thanks for honing in on this gorgeous fun design, it’s on my list now too!! 🎉

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Oh I’m so glad you think so. Thank you Jamie!

[@LuvinEweDesigns]

Add a piece of twill tape across the back of your Eun sweater's neckline to support the weight, and prevent the dreaded alpaca stretch. Just whip stitch it to the line that's created where you join the folded neckline in.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

This is another fantastic suggestion. You see, this is why I love this community. We all come at this with different crafty backgrounds that can help provide some insight. Thank you!

[@alyssashulman7239]

Watching this as I weave in the ends of my Bright Side by Espace Tricot in black wool/cotton blend!

[@WildeBookGarden]

Actually giggled when that flower bit the dust 😭

[@LovedLisa]

A thought about the Eun Sweater yoke: take a break to maybe transfer it to tubing and block it. Might just give you the confidence you need to happily continue 😊

[@maritakinnula5300]

I was about to say the same, blocking will do the trick.

[@razmagaz3858]

I have recently taken up knitting and have been looking for some communities to join for guidance and helpful tips. I am very happy i found your channel, seeing everything you have done has inspired me to really get stuck into knitting. Thank you so much.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

It’s absolutely my pleasure and it’s so good to have you here. Welcome! ❤️

[@princessdlaf]

I won’t admit how long I’ve had those same needle stoppers, and not realized they were rock, paper and scissors! 😆

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Your secret is safe with me. 😊

[@candace3841]

GIRL!! same i thought it was 0 2 and five. i didn't even open the package so i didn't know there were only six of them. Im glad she said something!

[@seejessmake]

I've been following Kika forever! Stripe Hype is also on my list, as are all of her other patterns.

[@anneellison8188]

Wow! 4 sweaters at a time. Very impressive. You'll have a great wardrobe this fall/winter for sure.

[@peggydrawspictures]

Sarah mclachlan memorializing that flower killed me 💀🤣

It had to be done. 😉

[@Azure_Jewel]

Me too!

[@l.c.6282]

When she said “hey Siri”, my Siri popped up on my IPad. I rewound the video and it did it again.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Yeah. I've been known to do that from time to time. 😬

[@candace3841]

enjoyed the video, the sad song for the first fallen petal sent me!!

Can you imagine?! ☺️❤️❤️

[@MediaPeruanaKnits]

Mochiknits has some cute cardigans with that modular yoke construction you might like (I translated them into English, so I know they're well done!), Dolly and Seul are 2 of them. Love that Eun pullover, that's probably hopping into my queue!

[@ivettepassiglia4971]

I love them all. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

My pleasure. Thank you for watching!

[@alexandradegruyter]

The Strype Hype Sweater is gorgeous ❤️🥰

[@heathersgoinnuts]

I have become addicted to tunisian crochet lately. So, I have two knit projects and like 3 tunisian crochet projects going all at once. My husband thinks I am nuts, but that is okay lol I just bought more yarn which I really didn't need to make my self a sweater. It is 50% recycled cotton and 50% polyester. I got it in a Charcoal Grey. I can't wait till it comes in. It is coming from Denmark. So, you are not the only one that has a million and one projects going all at once. It keeps things interesting.

[@Lavran]

I just wanted to say, your videos always bring me so much joy! Especially today, during sleepless night, thank you for distracting me from overthinking.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Ah, gosh this means a lot. And I SO know the feeling. I’m happy to be here for you. Sleep tight. 😴❤️

[@dreambeth]

Taylor, here is an idea about the cute ECLAIR sweater and its tricky collar. You can apply elastic wire (it is kind of like fishing wire but slick and stretchy). People use it in bead making for necklaces and bracelets. It's clear. You can use a safety pin to thread the stretchy elastic through your finished collar, This tip was suggested by another youtuber. I can not recall her name but she designs sweaters and offers tips on her making techniques.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

This is such a great idea! Thank you! ❤️

[@jatraveler1277]

as I listen to this I am applying bead elastic to my too big sweater collar. Hope it works.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

I really love knowing that there’s an option. Please let us know how it works!

[@valeriehowden471]

Genius!

[@jatraveler1277]

I just used .7 mm Stretch elastic cord on my Winter Bluff sweater by Ashley Lillis. My first sweater and neckline was WAY too wide. It's better, might wear this, acrylic and wool from JoAnn, so more hot and bulky, but inexpensive first sweater. Google... How to tighten a sweater collar and Ashley Lullis has several methods.

[@kenyettasjourney9533]

I just love your workspace. Would you give a workspace tour?

[@Katepwe]

She did that in a previous episode. Sorry but I don’t remember which one.

[@kenyettasjourney9533]

@@Katepwe thank you I will try and find the episode

[@EsmereldaPea]

One of the things I LOVE about your videos is the level of detail you go into about the construction of the garments! The last two sweaters are on my list if only to learn the construction techniques!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you so much Esmerelda! I often wonder if I go into too much detail only to muddy up my explanation, but I'm happy to know that you find value there. Thank you for watching!

[@laraejensen2157]

Just chiming in that when you asked Siri for an alternate to “rustic” my phone answered!! 😂LOL!! Love what you are working on and your channel. 😎

[@pampreviti2704]

That stand-up collar on the Eun is very attractive and I love the drop shoulder on Sweater No. 18. 🧡 Another interesting shoulder construction is the saddle shoulder. I haven’t made it yet but I’m intrigued. 🧶

[@dawnupperman524]

Thank you for sharing ❤

[@bgoquick]

1000% agreed about being your own crafter. I don’t often encounter many crafter’s who don’t have multiple projects going on simultaneously with the exception of new crafter’s and have said to people I know it’s the norm to do so because we might need a mental break from one project but still need to keep our hands busy

[@Sarah-hs7oq]

Another enjoyable video of yours :-) I'm knitting Sweater No. 21 from My Favorite Things and I also love the shoulder construction. What a clever pattern.

[@patbwatchin]

Esperanza translates to hope….Hope to get through WIPS. Thanks for another great visit

[@Knicoleknits]

I looooove the color of Sweater no. 18!! 😍

[@doreenbroesky1049]

Very inspiring need all the sweaters now 🙌

[@valeriehowden471]

Working on a pair of socks with intarsia and a brioche scarf/shawl. Thinking of sweaters on my to-do list. I never try to knit up too many projects at a time just in case i forget to write down notes of changes. It's not a race in my book. Will have to check out the alpaca-cotton blend for my next sweater as i am overflowing with Fishermen's wool in my wardrobe. I would certainly buy those stitch stoppers if i didn't have a big enough collection already from Fox + Pine... highland cows, lemons, coffee beans, ghosts, tulips, christmas delivery truck... You get the picture. Best thing ever!

[@noelleparris9451]

Thanks! Tayler, I have enjoyed your channel so much - I've been both entertained and educated/informed. I admire your personal style and way you prioritize, I appreciate your commitment to crafting, making and the fiber community...and I love your ability to make me laugh. Carry on!!!

Noelle, thank you so much. This means a great deal to me and just knowing you’re there watching is so special. I’m grateful. ❤

Your sweaters are so lovely. I really like the stripped one and the teal one. I am still working on my 1st sweater but also a shawl. I find I really enjoy socks and hats the most so far. Thank you for an inspiring podcast.

[@catepotenza]

I knit sweater No. 18 last fall and I also really enjoyed the construction. I get many compliments on it because I think it looks way more complicated to knit than it actually was. It’s also super cozy and squishy because of the stitch pattern.

[@maryeberle8994]

I'm knitting a Felix cardigan with Kelbourne Woolens Lucky Tweed. It's my first sweater. I was knitting while traveling in a vehicle and loved the colors of the nubs that shined in the sun. Using this yarn for a Felix was based on a store sample.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Oooo that sounds so lovely! I really am loving the colors for sure. Enjoy your Felix. It's my favorite sweater to date.

I knit the “totally tank” recently and it had a similar construction as the one you’re knitting from ‘my favorite things knitwear’, it seems complicated while reading it and is super intuitive while knitting it. I Loved the whole process too ❤

Love seeing sweaters on the needles! I am almost finished my second sweater - I had some SERIOUS second sleeve syndrome - it has leg of mutton sleeves so it is A LOT. I decided to work on the weekend on that instead of swatching for the deep rose sweater I want to cast on!

[@valerieconrad1005]

I have I guess 4 projects on my needles. I've got a raglan sweater that's almost finished. The neck band is the last thing on this sweater, which helped me understand your sweater construction. I've got a cardi that I'm swatching. Then there's another pair of socks. I've always got to have a pair of socks cast on! And then a cowl that's been on the back burner for like 9 months... maybe I ought to finish it now that fall is coming.

[@mundanemornings]

I know you are just sticking to two colors for your stripe hype sweater right now, but I feel like you would be SO GOOD at picking the most GORGEOUS color combinations for a multi-colored striped sweater!!! (like in the original stripe hype sweater photo)

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you! I was tempted, but I really wanted to knit this first one (yes, I want another 😅) in two colors so I could use stash yarn. In the future though, I'll definitely be playing with color. ❤️

[@bgummeson]

Always enjoy seeing what you’re knitting! I started looking through the Eun projects on Ravelry, and I see someone has made it with the LB Fisherman’s Wool! 😊 I’ve been delaying making myself a sweater because I’m actively working on my health and fitness. I noticed today that my bust size isn’t changing as much as my lower half. I think the Eun sweater is a good choice for knitting a cozy wearable that will offer some longevity during changes in my body.

[@pattihuke2992]

I have struggled with the Italian bind off, thanks for inspiration to consider it again

I usually have one sweater on the go. But as I'm getting to the end, I allow myself to scratch the itch of matching wool to patterns, gauge swatching, and even starting out like you have done. Then when it's time to transition, I've already got things worked out.

I'm going to be so curious how the Isager Eco Soft works when blocked. I fell in love with the Eun sweater when you featured it in previous episode. Saw a nice project with the Eco Soft on Ravelry which looked gorg (and didn't require holding two yarns together, obviously). I don't have any experience with using a cotton blend yarn so a bit hesitant. Of course, I could do a large gauge swatch and block to find out 😉. Thanks for all of your inspiration!

[@brendafalk5162]

Question: Which circular needle brand has the longest actual needle, before it is attached to the cable? My daughter is disabled and a circular needle works for her, but having longer needles, before attached to the cable, would really help her. Thanks for any info you have to offer.

[@maritakinnula5300]

The longest I have are made by Kinki Amibar and they are bamboo needles the difference between them and Chiaogoos is only one centimeter, that is not a lot. Somebody else probably has better recommendations😊
