Thank you! 😊 So fun that you’ve gotten to test for her! I’m glad you liked your Bay…its on my shortlist! Just have to find the right yarn.

shorties : i had to return them, that was years ago so maybe i can give them a second try. laughed when you mentioned how it seems that the next project might be the last.... yes... thank you for good content !

@AnotherKnittingPod 5 ай бұрын

Hi Sylvia! Yes-give them a try! I was the same. The shortie set languished in my cabinet for at least a year before I gave them a fair chance!

Your Shizen looks great on you- it looks so flattering on your figure. I can’t wait to see your new WIP once it is done- it’s one of those hard to picture garments (probably for me because it is knit in pieces) but it looks so cool in that color! It reminds me of some of the greens in some of Monet’s water lily paintings. I added that book to my TBR list-I love books set in England and have been reading mysteries (my go to genre) and feel like a departure from that might be good for summer. I too am awkward with people I don’t know well. I will replay conversations in my mind for days thinking why did I say that!?!? I am big on quitting a book I don’t love too. My time is too precious to read anything I can’t wait to get to the next page in. I’m so glad I got to catch up with you! I finally had a low stress day and spent a glorious hour knitting my sock with you ❤

Thank you Kaetlyn!! I’m so glad I’m not the only one who plays back the things I wish I hadn’t said over and over. Ugh its so annoying!!

Yay Team Shorties! They're my favorite 😍 What a great tip to put the body of the sweater in a separate bag! Your new cast on is GORGEOUS and you inspired me cast on Jacqueline Cieslak's Moon Crush tank. Just purchased the yarn from Ritual Dyes in natural, rye, and of course our favorite color ever: Jewelweed! Beyond excited 🎉

@AnotherKnittingPod 5 ай бұрын

Ah! I’m dying to cast on Mooncrush!! If I had the right yarn in my stash…yours is going to be magical. Jewelweed is just 🤩

I missed you, Jackie!! How was your trip to Italy?? I’ve been thinking about it. I hope it was amazing.

@ninadavidson3297 5 ай бұрын

OMG - what a great Podcast….. love the Shizen (it’s in my queue), love Jacqueline Cieslak - knitted her Ursa in Q&Co’s Kestrel & it’s a VERY favourite of mine….. tried to make Mooncrush but graph weirdly stops at Row 28 (then what are you supposed to do??) so that was sadly abandoned……. Love all your pontifications - loved ‘One Day’ (both book & Netflix) & Archie comics entertained me for hours as a child growing up in Australian country side (I wanted to live in a mansion in the USA like Archie!)….. Well Done Lena👍👍

@AnotherKnittingPod 5 ай бұрын

Hi Nina!! We grew up on opposite sides of the world but we both loved Archie!! 💜 As for Mooncrush…so interesting. I wonder if its because the top is cropped and that was the end?? That can’t be though. She must have anticipated knitters wanting to add length. I need to get to the bottom of this!

@ninadavidson3297 4 ай бұрын

Dear Leena, you inspired me to knit the fade boxy and I‘m so happy with it. The next project will be the Shizen. Such an amazing garment! 😍

@AnotherKnittingPod 5 ай бұрын

Yay! That lace and fade is so beautiful and unique. I think Shizen would be a fun knit for you too. Just enough interest to keep it fun and a really unique construction at the top!

So much to comment on! First, Archie comics....you had me smiling...I'm a bit older than you and remember if I'd find a dime I'd run to the store to buy the latest Archie comic book I did watch One Day, and I enjoyed it...I'll listen to your recommendation of You Are Here 😊. I just purchased Nettle and Bone by T.Kingfisher...i want to dive right in, but I'm saving it for travel reading later this summer. I absolutely love your Shizen...I hope mine looks half as nice on me! It's funny...for a while the pattern was a bit painstaking...I was having to check the pattern several times per row...but then I convinced myself to trust my ability to read my knitting, and it's like someone switched over in my brain! I enjoyed Young Sheldon. Not sure if you know this little fact...Laurie Metcalf played Sheldon's mom on Big Bang Theory...it's her daughter who plays his mom on YS A show that I was surprised that my kids enjoyed...Soap, from sometime in the 80's I believe. It was a satire on soap operas. Also, i think it was Billy Crystal's first big role. He played a gay guy, which was pretty unheard of back then

@sandracroley9784 5 ай бұрын

Also, I like that you seem to gravitate to patterns that are unique. I've recently found Doodles by Yumiko Alexander. I'll be hoping to find something in my stash that would suit it

@AnotherKnittingPod 5 ай бұрын

Hi Sandra! So happy to hear from you. Re: One Day, I think when you love a book as much as I loved that one, nothing on the screen is ever going to match what was in your mind. I really want to go back and read it again! I did not know that about Young Sheldon! We never watched the Big Bang Theory…I need to try it out and see if it’s appropriate for my little one…its so tricky with shows. There is always too much sexual innuendo but I guess there’s no escaping it. I will look up Soap!! I love Billy Crystal! And love the Doodles top…I love the mix of sheer and opaque, always. Take good care Sandra! Good luck on the Shizen!

@sandracroley9784 4 ай бұрын

You probably won't see this comment....it's July 5th...I think I'm going to give up on my Shizen. I really think I've screwed up royally...pretty bummed 😕

Game changer is to swatch with more than one needle size. . swatch with the a size down for x amount of rows, than the recommended needle size for x amount than go up a size for x amount of rows.

@AnotherKnittingPod 5 ай бұрын

Yes! It makes swatching more fun too, not just a boring mandate.
