AUTUMN KNITS - cardigan, pumpkin socks, & hand spun yarn | knitting podcast

[@Deborah750]

Cutest autumn socks ever! Yes please!🥰❤️🍁🧶

[@elizabethb.3932]

I just want to finish a sweater, that’s the dream. I’m a pretty intermediate knitter but I lose interest so quickly and have a million started projects. Listening to your podcast has motivated me to try and actually finish the projects I’m working on (although it’s also motivated me to start new projects). I’m trying to make myself finish the items I’ve started in the last year before casting on a sweater- probably in big yarn and needles to help encourage me so that it finished quicker. I’ve come to realize I like looking at, buying for, and starting new projects more than actually knitting them 😆 I should probably just work at a yarn store.

Sounds like me and my interest in adding books to my TBR and then never getting to read 😅

[@whocaresffs]

Those pumpkin socks turned out adorable! Love them.

[@ericataylorcreative]

thank you! ☺️

[@candycep526]

Just bought the "My Dream Cardigan" Pattern. I love the look of yours and the finishing is especially gorgeous. Thank you for sharing.

[@ericataylorcreative]

Thank you! 😊

[@Sandy-lq9xe]

Well done with the pumpkin socks! Congrats on your first design. 🙂

[@tarynschaefer5043]

Hi Erica! I just discovered your podcast. I’m a fellow PNW knitter. Your pumpkin socks are adorable! Thanks for sharing!

[@meaghantyrrell]

I love your pumpkin socks! I tried learning how to spin yarn a couple years ago and I gave up so quickly. I think taking a class was definitely the way to go. I can't wait to see your progress! Right now, I'm finishing putting the star patches on my Folklore cardigan and sewing up the seams. I've been working on this cardigan since the beginning of May and I'm so excited to see it completed!

[@annebarnet2178]

Hi Erica; TY for another great video. I just finished the Tulip sweater and am ready to cast on the Franky Sweater in KOS by Sandnes Garn. I hope you complete the design for your pumpkin socks. They are so cute!

[@xusblasco5563]

You make everything look so cooosy and adorable! Thanks for this lovely Video, Erica 💕🧶🌷

[@brendareynolds8347]

I have the same problem. I get bored to easily, I want to Finnish them but I'm always in a hurry to start a new project. But I'm slowly getting them done

[@samanthamiller207]

Recently my "dream project" that just doesn't seem to be happening yet has been the Rumble Raglan. It's a beautiful negative ease colorwork piece that forever haunts me and will one day be brought to life 😂 loving the pod ❤

[@lindacarey7578]

love your fall socks.

[@MaryIannacone]

I must say I love your glasses! My dream project has always been the Butterfly Shawl. By Marin Melchior. It’s such a fun project. Never get bored with this and I am on my third one!

[@BarbaraBoholm]

Your knitting is pure magic!!!! 💖💞

[@ericataylorcreative]

thank you so much! ☺️

[@jessicaknittingsworth7359]

I'm working on the Tulip Jumper. It's been on my wishlist for years, ever since Inga from Knitting Traditions made one. I am so proud to finally cast it on.

[@mendyelliott9495]

How cute are those pumpkin socks!

[@StephanieBell-jd5ph]

Love those cute pumpkin socks! My dream project is to knit hiking socks with my hiking groups logo included in color work. 😊

[@ericataylorcreative]

oh that would be PERFECT! you can definitely do it 😊

[@hstahlbrandt]

That’s a great thrift store find! How fun to learn how to spin! I don’t have any dream projects per se, but a dream would be to finish all my wips! 😂😂

[@ericataylorcreative]

hahahah i'm right there with you! i need to finish so many abandoned wips

[@nicolepantojas]

I love the 3 rows of stockinette before you start your ribbing! So cute

[@nicolepantojas]

I'd LOVE to make the pumpkin socks!

[@ericataylorcreative]

Thank you! 🥰

[@MoonFlowerSis]

Oh, I love the pumpkin socks!

[@ko.atelier]

these socks you've designed look so good! i really like the cuffs that you make. i have to try it out :)

[@marylouofficial]

Yessss I would totally buy the pumpkin sock pattern!!!!!!!!

[@inherskein]

Love the pumpkin socks, they are adorable!! One of my dream knits is a super long cardigan, but I'm always too scared to commit to buying that much yarn 😅

[@YarnChicken]

"it's hot and I'm over it" I FEEL YOU 😂

[@bethbamszoo]

Such cutie little pumpkin socks! Today I wound up yarn for 3 different projects as I want to do a little swatching and feel what inspires me! I didn’t intend to put 3 together but so it goes. The ones I am considering? Northwoods V Neck, Stockholm Slipover (this one is winning so far), and Slightly Sassy V.

[@emmalizfisher]

My dream project is a blanket pattern I tore out of a magazine 10+ years ago, a patchwork design in all natural hues with different sheep and sheepdogs on each patch, the pages have yellowed but it’s been my dream project for years

[@ericataylorcreative]

that sounds like it would be sooo beautiful! cheering you on to knit that dream project :)

[@whatmarielmade]

I love allll your projects, Erica 🥰 your podcasts are such a treat to see pop up in my inbox, I’m SO inspired to steek a cardigan! Yours turned out amazingly~ a dream “knit” of mine that I keep putting off is the Stella Quilt Cushion…just haven’t made formal plans yet…

[@ericataylorcreative]

thank you so much for always watching Mariel! oooh i looove the stella quilt cushion AND the blanket, i want to make both one day too! 💖

[@purlsandpyrs]

My dream knits are the Dark Academia sweater and when it comes out, the Light Academia sweater. They are both gorgeous and I've had the pattern for Dark Academia since it came out. For whatever reason I keep casting on other sweaters though. After my Rhinebeck sweater is done it is going on the needles even if it just sits there after that.

[@SavanKnits]

Those socks are so cute! My dream project is the Arctic Light Sweater by Kutovakika

[@Thistheoknits]

I love your pumpkin sock design! It’s super cute. If you do decide to write up the pattern, I would love to test it for you. Colourwork socks are my favourite thing to knit. My dream knit would be an all over cable sweater. The thing the holds me back is choosing the right shade of yarn to use. I have a very pale complexion and the gorgeous creamy shades cable sweaters are usually knit it are far too cool toned for me. I’m still hunting for that perfect creamy beige that is warm and squishy.

[@crystalblue38883]

Fun video!! Just a note to say to get rid of moths in yarn you need to freeze for 72 hours. even then they recomend keeping in bag to make sure no eggs survive. Alpaca is a moth favorite by the way. BUT great find!

[@katherinehill3958]

I want to make the lento and a musselbourgh. I keep the yarn out in my line of site so that I can cast on but they just doesn't seem to be priority. I currently have 1 summer tee, one wooly pullover and 1 cardigan and colourwork mitts on the needles. I always have socks on the go (which I am working on while I watch your video). Darn needing a full time job, haha. I once found Noro silk / wool plates in Walmart. I was shocked I got a tee amount for $15 dollars Canadian. I have never seen it there since and I don't know how it got there but I check whenever I am in a store just in case. Your pumpkin socks are gorgeous! Well done!

[@iwoollylikethat]

I’ve been wanting to knit a Marie Wallin design… I feel like I’ll have made it as a knitter if I do 🤪 love the pumpkin socks!! Make the pattern!

[@ericataylorcreative]

oooh you totally should make one! thank you 😊

[@lalaleelou1]

Current knit: A Montrealer for my son-in-law. Dream knit: all over cabled sweater which I did already knit and now is way too big for me. Darn. I have to knit another. ❤️ Already bought yarn to make myself a Deep Winter Coat by Wool & Pine.

[@gilliancopeland667]

Super cute socks! I'm currently working on the anything raglan pattern by madeinthemoment! I just finished the collar and I'm having a lot of fun already.

[@michellehunt2205]

Erica I would purchase your pumpkin sock pattern. I love knitting cardigans from handspun yarn. Spinners usually sell their finished product at very good prices and the quality is beautiful to knit with.

[@hennii100]

The socks are very cute ❤

[@ericataylorcreative]

thank you!

[@peewee2092]

My dream project is to knit myself a sweater. I love the pink in socks!!!! Please do write up the pattern I’ll be happy to purchase ❤❤❤ love your podcast/ videos as always 😊 I’m currently working on a blanket (crochet) and a scarf(knit) for a friend

[@amandakedaigle6895]

You should *totally* release that pumpkin socks pattern! I love it :)

[@cindybilladeau7003]

Good job on your pumpkin socks , and I also think you should release the pattern, it’s so cute.

[@meepiecrafts7799]

I have a whole dreamlist but now after my tenane sweater, i gonna cast on the bookclub cardigan and the stormsweater😅

[@GrayBush_Knits]

Good morning! I just wanted to share I started the korshavn Cardigan as well, with mohair, and the holes in the basketweave were really big and I decided to frog it. Decided I don't want to do that pattern after all. Sounds like you are feeling similar after your swatch. 😊

[@ericataylorcreative]

oooh thank you for sharing! that's good to know the mohair didn't make much of a difference, you just saved me from buying more yarn! 😂

[@kimbryan2014]

the fact that I am a knitter with a "K" I am a spinner with a "S" that tried drop spindles and now have 2 wheels an Ashford and a Kiwi so your instructor is right

[@eira777]

I just found your channel and l love it! The pumpkin socks are so cute! My dream knit: Nightshade Society Sweater by Dragon Hoard Design. I am a little intimidated by the cables though.

[@taniamelente]

😍

[@MMKnittingandCrochet]

north central wa state here :) hello fellow PNW friend!

[@jzswells]

I would 100% knit those pumpkin socks if you made a pattern 😍

[@anikanacey7978]

I RAN to the description to find the pattern for the pumpkin socks, you'll have to share it when you're ready!

[@ericataylorcreative]

Aw thank you!! It’s coming soon 😊

[@bigblackdogfiberarts]

Your refrigerator freezer does not get cold enough to kill off critters or eggs. It would have to be much colder and stay there for at least 72 hours. Better to skein up the balls and simmer/wash them.

[@Arinsydneycb]

I need those socks in my life, please write up the pattern.
