[@roberta-ohio1043]

Beautiful yarn. I love the blue color. I need to start on my winter knitting. Thank you...

[@marystover9153]

I like the emerald green yarn. Thank you for the helpful cast-on technique...very useful. Mary Stover Calais, Maine

[@emilyborrello3395]

Tney are both beautiful! I do love the Emerald Green!

[@EvieO1950]

This weeks yarn looks luscious, I like the blue again. Thanks for sharing the mittens. I’m a new knitter and those look like something I could make. Great tips for reusing patterns.

[@patricianeumann8680]

I am an avid knitter, and I too discovered the necessity for using sleeves for storing my patterns as well as 4 inch binders. It's great that you are sharing practical advice with new knitters.

I love the blue! I’m knitting with this yarn now and absolutely love it!

[@dianabritton9713]

I've been storing my patterns in sheet protectors and binders (4" also x 3) for many years. Also use whiteboard markers and/or post it notes to track progress. I look forward to trying out the mitten pattern and I'd love to knit them in the green yarn prize. Love your videos!

[@challberg1648]

The yarn is gorgeous - especially the azure.

[@marynew2806]

Hi Kelley! Thanks for your encouragement to try knitting two-at-a-time! I did follow one of your videos and a pair of socks are almost ready to wear! Like the green just a little more than the blue! Thanks for your coupon code!

[@teresaharp]

Love the Emerald green! Sounds like great fiber mix

[@pattiweeks5810]

That mitten pattern is fantastic! I've used it several times. I vote for blue.

[@spacekmam54]

Thanks for the tip on how to cast on 2 mittens. I have been knitting socks for 10 years and this is the first time I have been able to cast them on without casting on 2 separate circular needles and then joining them. Thanks a heap! I am trying to do gussets on a mitten pair for the first time on circular needles but have not found instructions how to do 2 mitten gussets at once. I figured out something but not sure if it is right. Had to do it in a mirror way. This is my first time making mittens. So if you know a good way please post

[@janetfordham6567]

I love the Azure. I want to try 2-at-a-time socks and have the needles, but just haven’t had a chance.

[@cynthianaven5129]

I have used the sheet protectors before when I am going somewhere and using project bag. It keeps them from getting messed up. I love that blue alpaca yarn.

[@kimborsgard4787]

Love putting my patterns into sheet protectors! Also use it with highlighter tape on charts.

[@protophotogsl]

My favorite colorway this week is the Azure Mix (blue); I would love to use Ultra Alpaca in my knitting projects (I haven't used it yet). I use a similar system of noting projects (and any mods) on Ravelry, keeping any printed-to-be-used-again patterns in plastic sleeves in labeled notebook binders (with little index card or sticky notes slipped into the sleeve re size details/mods). Thank you for your TAAT magic loop demonstration. Thank you for this "gift series".

[@dorisannbrandt7686]

I have not seen this technique, but I’m only new to this group.

[@tree1383]

I do use sheet protectors and binders, I have 3-4, 2" binders, but never thought to use erasable markers. I use pencil and erase

[@marciajohnson9210]

Nice tips you have offered

[@sarasundb]

Thank you Kelley! I vote for the emerald skein.

[@sarasundb]

I don’t think my other comment came through but I like to use the sheet protectors and mark my place with washi tape and post-it flags.

[@lauramorrisett4522]

I love the emerald color of the ultra apaca. I haven't tried it before, but it looks like I need to. I also need to get that mitten pattern, they looks super simple

[@DeborahCreer]

I've seen you cast on. Thanks.

[@debbiewelch2733]

Yes I've used ultra alpaca for hats and mittens

[@teresaknittingdancer9052]

I like the green yarn.

[@dorisannbrandt7686]

I’m all about blue!

[@carolleahlaing3335]

Tell the man in the background to be quiet while your filming. I don’t want to listen to him. He makes it like you don’t know what your doing.

[@dogmom7698]

Yes I agree. So annoying. Mr. Interrupter!

[@tree1383]

I don't believe I've ever used this yarn. I would choose the emerald green color.

[@debbiewelch2733]

Emerald green

[@joieashley1951]
