Cozy Winter Knitting Vlog | Lumme Pullover | Alma Mittens | Handspun | Ginko Pinafore

[@nanabella007]

That beginning of the video was so beautiful, so bitter-sweet. Like remembering all the good times with a long lost childhood friend or all the times your grandma snuck you some candy behind your mom's back. Being happy those moments happened and knowing you can never get them back...

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Aww thank you ❤

[@janetdaniels8816]

You are so photogenic. More photos of your sewing as well as your knitting. Merry Christmas.

[@QueenBaha]

🌴☀️It’s ridiculous how much I look forward to YOUR videos 🤭 tks so much dear one ☀️🌴

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Aww that means so much to me!

[@kmaigaard]

I am trying to finish a pair of Selbu mittens for my son for Xmas Eve, which is tomorrow, and the day we open our Xmas presents. They are a little like the mittens you are working on. My Dad is really sick, and watching your podcast while knitting was balsam for my soul ❤ Merry Xmas

[@carolbergson1570]

Your pond film was a peaceful interlude in the day.. Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I love the pond! ❤

[@catardif4158]

When I knit with splitty yarn (I’ve used that one too) I switch to blunt tip needles - I have a set of Addi Turbos for that exact purpose - they are fast too,and are certainly a life (yarn?) saver. haha

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Great tip ❤

[@jessicav606]

Really love all of your makes. The dress is perfect and that fabric is lovely! Merry Christmas to you and your fam!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank youb

[@Lily_curatorial_knits]

I was just thinking of the Lumme, what perfect timing! Thank you so much for sharing your creativity!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much Lily! Maybe we will be matching soon!

[@Mr3355661]

Really enjoyed “ walking with you” so beautiful. And loved the music you used! Happy making!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much! It was a beautiful day for a walk.

[@brookwillow]

Loved this one 🥰 Im still so in love with your Ginko Pinafore

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you!!! I can’t wait to see yours ❤

[@sarahmerseal8639]

Love seeing you spinning! And the Alma mitts are awesome!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I'm so glad you liked them! Thank you

[@jojorey6886]

You win videographer of the year.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Aww thank you! Mr YoungFolk Knits is my drone operator 😊

[@amberw4835]

Beautiful projects. Love the entire vibe of your videos.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I'm glad you enjoy them!

[@AHandKnitLetter]

I was waiting for Mr. Darcy to pop out during your intro.❤ Another lovely video. Thursdays are my favorite days all because of you.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Awww thank you 😊

[@QueensYarnBoutique]

Your projects and your hair looks amazing, Kaci! 🧶

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you friend!

[@summermchalffey9469]

Beautiful ❤ just beautiful everything ❤

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you! I love this time of year!

[@janelleroads6011]

Your Pinafore really suits you! I'd make a dozen if I looked that nice in it! Your sweater looks super warm and will be great on a snowy day! Mittens are difficult for me to make the exact same size. As long as they don't fall off I guess I'll try not to let it bug me. Ha! Great vlog .

[@YoungfolkKnits]

That's the spirit! Haha and same. My mittens don’t usually turn out the same size 😭

[@JenMaitreya]

Thank you for being so inspiring! Merry Christmas! ❤

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you for being here!

[@maryhansen6649]

Love the piano music background!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you!

[@Liz.Green789]

I love the videos showing your farm. You live on beautiful land. Geese are fun to watch. I think I saw a swan at the local park today. It looked magical with the snowy edges and dusted trees.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Swans are so beautiful in the winter!

[@maureenwilliford8985]

I love geese. They always sound SO happy that I can’t help but stop, watch, and smile.😊

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Me too! I love watching them too!

[@dougannfleck7720]

I LOVED the Wild Robot!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Me too!

[@kimgilpatrick2418]

Wild Robot is my most favorite movie! Love it! ❤

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I love that movie!

[@caitlin68285]

Im currently working on The Yorkshire shawl . Love it. Was hoping to be done already but its fiiiiiiine. It’ll be done when its done

[@YoungfolkKnits]

It will be worth it ❤

[@kelleychristensen8219]

You make such beautiful videos!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much! You are very kind!

[@Ashleysknittingcorner1]

Love your content Kaci!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much!

Kaci, the Ginko Pinafore is so flattering on you! Sitting with nature is so good for the soul.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you!

[@lfinn6125]

What stunning cinematography! I am transported to the Brontë sisters. Thank you

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you for joining me!

[@simoneclarke5104]

I really enjoyed Wild Robot, and yes I cried several times🥰! Loved the opening of your video with the livestock in the mist, very beautiful 💖

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I love when there is fog!

[@KnitsByNayla]

Okay award for most epic intro definitely goes to you! I just wanna spend a weekend on the farm 😅 it’s so good to set achievable goals. I’m working on finishing a vest for my grandpa. I couldn’t find a pattern that I liked so I’m making it up as I go along. A little each day is helping it get done. Hope you and your family enjoy this holiday season.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

That is such a sweet thing to do for your grandpa!

[@angiedaniel8373]

The opening footage of your morning walk calms my soul. So beautiful and peaceful looking! 💯% agree about The Wild Robot. My grandkids and I read the books first then saw the movie. Tears all around. Praying for a calm, relaxing, blessed Christmas and New Year for you and yours. I always look forward to your podcast 😊

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I’m so glad you enjoyed the walk! And thank you so much

[@ChristieArcher]

Your new spinning wheel looks like so much fun and I love how compact it is. I’ve never spun before but you inspire me to give it a try. Thank you for sharing your walk and daily life with us as well as your projects. I really enjoy this format. I’m hoping to finish up my Lulu Slipover by PetiteKnit today. I have a few sewing projects I want to get done before the end of the year and I need to add a ruffle to one sock so that pair is complete. I feel like it’s all achievable. 🤞🏼 I hope your holiday season is filled with peace and happiness my friend. ❤

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I love the Lulu pullover! Best wishes with your sewing projects!

[@Serenity-fu8xz]

Kaci, I love your new intro that should be your new intro every video. It’s so beautiful with the drone and you walking and knitting that’s so beautiful Kaci

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Aww thank you!

[@knittingwithlizandaustin]

Kaci your hair!! And the dress! So beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much! 🥰

[@winonadelaney9325]

Love the peaceful lead-in to this episode.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you!

[@krautkopf65]

I just finished the Anker Tee last night. I’m working on The light Weekender and I’m planning on casting on my first Sophie Scarf. I love your farm clips. And your projects 😍

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I love The Light Weekender! It's such a cozy pattern.

[@serenityinstitches8236]

What a beautiful & serene intro! Thank you! 😊

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I'm glad you liked it! Than you so much

[@_PartTimeOverthinker_]

What a lovely video with beautiful scenery! I’m knitting a handsome Chris all over cabled sweater for my partner. I started it in May and it has been my main project. I hope I can finish before Christmas 🤞

[@YoungfolkKnits]

That’s such a great sweater!

[@_PartTimeOverthinker_]

@ agreed, the cables are stunning - I changed the fit slightly and added shortrows to the sleeves and some in the back. I hope it will fit nicely 🙂

[@sibleyhoneybee427]

I love your new jumper! The colors are so pretty and you look very stylish. I loved the moodiness of the beginning of your video with the fog and the somber music. Hopefully you felt some closure with turning some WIPs into FOs. I had to stop my personal knitting and focus on a baby blanket for a couple at church. I'll be excited to pick up my own projects again in the new year. ❤🧶

[@YoungfolkKnits]

A baby blanket is so satisfying 😊

[@beckywilliams9703]

OMG! I use that shampoo and Iove it. Let me tell you, when you are old enough to get some grey hair, nothing keeps the yellow out and keeps it shiny like Suave Daily Clairfying! I did not know they had conditioner in it though. I may have to try that too!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

It really is amazing!

[@GeniaFontaine]

I am furiously trying to finish the Brighton Pullover by Véronik Avery in Purl Soho's Linen Quill. I am knitting the sleeves together and I am almost to the cap shaping. This is a Christmas gift for my grown son and I am wondering if I will be wrapping the pieces and putting it together later!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

It sounds like you're in the home stretch!

[@jboren3693]

I can’t get over that intro. What song is that? It may be the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard. Next to your sweet voice, of course!

[@ruthjense6272]

Love your outfit and your hair! Looks great!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you! 🥰

[@sydney_creative_mind]

awesome footage! You are the master of intros 🥰❤🙌

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you! ❤❤❤❤

[@leitesta1725]

Awesome vlog!! Loved seeing more of the farm. The pond shots are breathtaking. I see why you enjoy it so much! I am making the Franca Cardigan by Coco Knits. And I am using some of my Handspun. I’ve made a couple of things with my Handspun but the biggest thing so far was a couple of tanks. This is by far the largest and I am loving it. I am trying to finish by the end of the year. Have a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!!🎉❤😊

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Knitting with Handspun is so special!!!

[@mklcole]

Merry Christmas Kaci…I’ve been working on gift knits mainly hats and Sofie scarves. I can’t wait to get back to working on my sweater, vest and socks😊

[@YoungfolkKnits]

At least hats and Sophie scarves are lovely to knit!

[@KikiDas-g5k]

Lovely intro , you have a great eye for scenery. Thanks for sharing your projects. Very inspiring as always-😊 I am working on distance scarf and hope to finish it up the new year . One might describe it as cable boot camp- so many tiny cables to knit!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much! It’s always so inspiring to hear what everyone else is working on! 😊

[@AnneWiley-vp5rj]

Lovely landscape!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you 😊

[@susanbossung9098]

The dress with a waistline looks so flattering on you. You look so pretty. I’m thinking of doing the alumni. I’m finishing the Celeste and am ready for another colorwork. I’m going to start the Port jacket also. I think they have different types of knitting, so I could go from one to the other depending on the situation.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I love the Celeste so much!

[@andreaderosier1461]

I’m trying to finish the traveler hoodie by Andrea mowry. By the end of this year.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

That’s an excellent one!

[@Pam-yy3km]

Loved your video. And I just bought the same dress pattern. Looking forward to sewing it up after the holidays! Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🥰

[@YoungfolkKnits]

It’s a great pattern! I love the pinafore! I hope you enjoy it

[@patternandcraft]

I don’t love the Isager eco baby yarn for the same reason- it’s so soft and plushy but it is the chainette construction and so the yarn catches on my needles and the stitch definition is a bit muddled and it’s really stretchy so kind of hard to tension. It knits up kind of like a bouclé even though it’s not. I think it would be fun for baby clothes and toys but was too stretchy for larger items in my opinion and a little hard to work with- very similar to the yarn you used for your Lume sweater except it’s alpaca/cotton blend instead of alpaca/wool.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

It’s definitely a tricky yarn to work with!

[@loveoffibers]

Another great video Kaci ❤ I love wild robot and I also 😢it’s so beautiful and definitely worth recommending. I really love your Lumme sweater and can’t wait to knit one up. The dress is so fun and I was wondering if you think it’s a good option as a beginner project. I really like it and would love to make it. Also love your hair so much and glad you didn’t do bangs. Really love catching up with your videos. 😊

[@YoungfolkKnits]

It is a great pattern for beginners! I enjoyed making it 😊 it wasn’t too difficult as long as you are ok with gathering ❤

[@loveoffibers]

@ great! Thank you so much! 😊

[@susanspencer3848]

I had the same experience with catching and splitting with the yarn. Drove me nuts. My final product did turn out beautifully, though,

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Totally worth it, though? That is good to hear!

[@JackieRandolph1]

That foggy morning is just beautiful ❤️ Does your husband do it with a drone? It's just so moody and the colors are amazing

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Yes he does!!! Thank you

[@MrsKWheatley]

I'm working on the Winterwoods pullover by The Petite Knitter - the yoke is blocking as I type - and also the La Prairie cardigan by Joji. The last 2 items in my wip-down - aiming for a big cast on party on 1st January!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Yay!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@jennymiles4426]

Knitting the Seoul blouse by Aegyoknit, something a bit different: using an alpaca/linen/silk blend held with cashmere lace so lovely and drapey. I’m a bit dubious about chainette yarns, seem a bit unnatural to me and have read reports of excessive pilling. Love seeing your beautiful landscape on your walks xx

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Chainette yarns can be a bit of a gamble but I am hopefully it work out ok

[@LorenMarieP]

What is the lovely song playing in the intro? I’m a sucker for a piece that features the cello so beautifully! 😊

[@brandonapple752]

Beautiful video as always ;-)

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much!

[@lorainef6266]

I'm in love with the sweater you are wearing during your haircut section. If you wouldn't mind telling me the name of the pattern. Thank you.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you! It’s an old navy purchase from a few years ago. Sorry :(

[@thebotanicalknitter]

I love the Suave clarifying shampoo 🎉

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Haha yesss!!!!

[@JaneBrazier]

I normally watch your videos on my phone propped up, but was doing some Christmas admin, so had it open on my computer. I was mesmerised - what was the music and were you playing it? ❤

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Aww thank you! I am not playing this but I was considering recording some music with Mr YoungFolk knits soon!

[@cometoogrebattleify]

I loved the intro too, the perfect serenity, coupled with beautiful music... played by yourself, Kaci?? May I ask, what is the pattern for the sweater you are wearing during your hair talk? It's gorgeous! Also, don't be afraid of bangs, I've had them my whole life. They can grow out if you didn't like them ;)

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you! Sadly the sweater is an old navy purchase from a few years ago

[@222ouch]

I like that dress you made, looks really good on you. Bangs are hard to grow out. Mine took forever. Do you play the piano at the beginning of the vlog when you were walking?

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Sometimes but not on this episode! It was a royalty free song I was able to use

[@ourdailyyarn]

Love your Lumme pullover! Also... that teapot?! Where did you get that? :)

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you Amazon! Just search vintage electric kettle

[@chet1051]

LisaR- Just have to comment on your videography ..It's magnificent - Id compare to the privilege of experiencing a live musician & getting goosebumps ( in a good way :)!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Oh my goodness, thank you so much!

[@christiesteckelberg8366]

In the summer, is your pond deep enough to swim or dip in?

[@YoungfolkKnits]

It is! But it’s not really clean enough for it :( especially because of how hot it it’s in summer

[@maggiekingful]

Who is your videographer??? So talented- and what’s the music??? I absolutely love your walks - I want your life🥰🥰 can you use a 73 year old former farm girl, knitter, crocheter, spinner, sewer helper? 😂😂 Thanks so much.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Hahaha I’ll see if my dad needs another cattle foreman on the ranch wink😂

[@imaseamistress]

Lol I'm not to the end but I gave myself bangs it's been 30 years. I like them but will probably grow them out again 😂

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Bangs are my arch nemesis 😂

[@Annoukky]

Is that spinner good for beginners? I'm so tempted to start and get one but I don't know if it would suit me given I've never spinned before.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I think so! They have great KZbin videos on setting it up and using it!

[@Annoukky]

​@@YoungfolkKnitsawesome, thank you!!!

[@jessicav606]

The intro is giving me Anne of Green Gables vibes ❤

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I love the 1980s Anne of green gables!

[@WhittleKnitLane]

1. I’m so glad you refrained from the bangs. I don’t think they look bad but I remember when you caved in a previous episode and you were so mad at it. 😂 2. My “slog” right now is the Moby Man sweater by PetiteKnit. I will have a party when it’s done! Planned by November 30, 2024….actual end? 2025 I guess. 🥱

[@YoungfolkKnits]

It will be so worth it!!!!

[@lfinn6125]

Oh, what tea kettle is that?!!!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

I can’t see the name but I searched vintage electric tea kettle and bought it on Amazon a few years ago

[@carolineleptitshowntell]

I loved the wild robot movie

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Me too!!!!!

[@urbanjunglegt]

🍀YouRe such a pure being 🤗 thanks for sharing ❤ a hug from türliye 🍀🦋🦋🦋🦋

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much! Sending you a big hug back. 😊

[@urbanjunglegt]

🍀

[@sandramullen7650]

I think your sweater is gorgeous. It does look a bit like boule but beautiful, beautiful.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Thank you so much!

[@rosslynnoziska4959]

How do you sign up for these Vlog mess programs?

[@paulalafontaine8020]

Ice does not run in your veins but life sure does build up some scar tissue. Lovely episode - thanks

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Haha! So true!

[@jamiethrogmorton2540]

You probably won’t wear out your mittens in AR, so why not have the most soft and spectacular colorwork mitts around?!

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Too true haha

[@anamelo12]

Wait until you see how much it peels 😢 Not using chain yarns in garments anymore. 😅

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Oh no!!!

[@sky123me]

My mittens never come out the same size. Sigh.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

So frustrating haha

[@alexandradegruyter]

🧶🌈❤️

[@sandramullen7650]

Glad you didn’t get bangs.

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Me. Too.
