|ABOUT|
I live and knit in Southern Ontario with my husband and my terrier. The name kuriaknits comes from my last name - Kurian. Kurian has Indian and Syrian origins and I feel lucky every day that my husband shared it with me.

Oh the Lento sweater you’re making is gonna be gorgeous goodness

[@kathleencapson5838]

I love your podcast! I’m knitting on a destination unknown by Cheryl Faust and it feels like it’s never ending so I sympathize with your half fisherman’s rib sleeve 🫠

[@heatherr9201]

Your top you are wearing looks beautiful on you… great job

[@elizabethryan9633]

Good Luck with your exams! I wish I had gone to the KW festival but I know I would not be as disciplined as you with a budget! I love your tee and may have to plan it for next spring. Wellington fibres is a great place to visit and see the yarn being made. The Amble wears fantastic.

You are inspiring me to look at my scrap yarns and cast on a blanket. My scarps are acrylic 😕 I want to give Continental style of knitting a shot. So this should be a good one to practice on. I love your podcast and I look forward to a new episode every fortnight. All the best for your exams

[@kuriaknits]

I think an acrylic blanket would be lovely too! Good opportunity to try continental. I've been experimenting with combination myself💕

Your Lucy Blouse is coming along so nicely, and it's so interesting to see the difference between pre and post-shave! That mohair certainly is quite fluffy, and I agree that the blouse looks even more lovely after being shaved. I'm currently working on a couple different cabled projects, I'm definitely on a cable kick right now!

I’m just finishing up the final sleeve on the Outer Space by Stephen West

Good luck on your exams! 😀

Eyyyy Southern Ontario girl who goes to New Haven! Me too! Instagram's been recommending you to me for a while but I have instinctive rebellion against doing what the algorithm says. But your moonset tee looked so good in the preview, I caved. New subscriber here - good luck with your Quals! BF is doing a PhD so I've seen how stressful they are. Fingers and toes crossed for you :) Also I howled at your feminine shaver - very creative! Just as an FYI though, they sell sweater shavers on amazon with the guard ;) I bought mine for $40 I went to the KW Knitters Fair too!!! I didn't know anyone had Lina! I didn't see it! (Just finished that section - lol. Yup.) There was someone who had a lovely tencel lace for like $14 though. I'm knitting on the white Karin, because I am a sucker for lace and gradients. Lovely podcast, thanks for sharing! I'll be back :3

[@kuriaknits]

Hii!! Thank you so much! What were you doing in New Haven?? LOL thank you for the info. At least I got a bargain for $15 I'll have to look that pattern up - sounds lovely!!

[@kristinm3729]

Just FYI, I made the Moon Set pullover and where yours pulls at the v neck happens in my version too (admittedly, made in a very soft superwash yarn). I think it's the nature of the technique (which I've used before). It's pretty minimal on mine and it doesn't get worse over time so I wouldn't worry too much about your version being fragile. IMO, superwash MCN is less durable than silk and mine's fine after multiple wears. Interestingly, I made my neckline deeper by an inch (accidentally but I liked it as my bust is projected so the length, as written, would be very shallow on me at the instructed depth). I think if you just lengthened the v, next time, that would do the trick. Mine doesn't pull back at all. Also - Amble does felt if you put it in the dryer... Ask me how I know 🙂

I was sad that I wasn’t able to go to the kw knitters guild fibre fest. It’s a good one!

[@sayyadahmariamfatemah1134]

Love your blouse ♥️.. we don't get such fibers here just acrylic.. other international yarns are from turkey and china.. cotton acrylic, milk cotton acrylic yarn. It's been a year to my knitting...

[@kuriaknits]

I've never heard of milk cotton - is that brand?

[@genier7829]

I have never been to a fiber festival, and I can't really spend much, so it's better to avoid temptation. I have plenty of nice yarn already, of course! I just finished a test knit called Dark Academia, allover color work being published in October, I think. A really great pattern. I just cast on my first hat, a baby colorwork one. I have 6 adult hats on my Christmas list if this first one is fun.

[@anitamoller5032]

If you ever decide to de-stash some of the mohair from the cone, let me know & how much, thx

[@sandraclements9658]

Love the Lucy Blouse, im trying to find it but cant seem to find it. I will keep checking

[@kuriaknits]

It is a test knit! I think the pattern will be out this week. I'll post about it on Instagram when it is :)

[@sandraclements9658]

@@kuriaknits Thank you, ill keep an eye out for it

[@edinacole6382]

Omg! I have been looking for mohair on a cone and I adore that color!! ❤❤If you are interested in selling it, please let me know.
