E04. Charlotte Makes Podcast| Calypso sweater, Tessellated Vest, Talvinen, Ingrid Slipover

Hi! Thank you for being here :)
Forgive the audio quality. My sister so graciously, let me use her new camera for this video. While the video quality is AMAZING compared to what I have been using, I probably really need an actual microphone for the audio. Oh well, live and learn. I'll get a microphone for next time. I don't think the audio is THAT bad, it just could be better.
In this episode I talk about my beloved, finished Calypso sweater and all the thing that are on my needs right now! Thanks for tuning in :)

[@Lavendare1023]

😊 Happy. Thanks Charlotte from Melbourne Australia 🦘🇦🇺

[@ceb2737]

Ive liked all the videos you have put out. So I say you do what feels right for you. I’m sure the others that have found you will watch whatever/whenever you post.

[@karenkingsbury2331]

Hello from New Zealand. Lovely podcast! Thanks

[@pjk4361]

Much enjoy your channel just as you have been doing it. Am watching you from Yakima in eastern Washington, love that connection with 'the westside'. What you are doing is working and lovely. Just be you!!

[@The-Vintage-Needlecrafter]

Thanks Charlotte, the colors you chose in your Calypso sweater are so nice. This sweater is on my fall list of acquisitions.😊 Thanks also for your tips.

[@adriennerichter8971]

I like your plans for the month. I love hearing about you and your life away from knitting. From Canada.

[@lucilesenseney5556]

Your workmanship is exquisite!

[@salomeelizabeth6026]

Lovely sweater..your earrings are gorgeous and match in beautifully.

[@Anji2866]

Love your Calypso sweater. Thank you for sharing your lovely projects. I really found your episodes interesting. I like to hear about yarns from around the world. That’s because they are not accessible to me. We have such limited range of knitting yarns. Just today I received some yarns that I ordered for a Shetland colour work hat. Instead of fingering weight as ordered they were bet sport and DK weight 😅

[@lauradarby9130]

Agree with other comments, make videos when it works for your schedule! Love what you've been sharing so far.

[@deborahwhite5784]

Ah your colour work sweater is beautiful. X

[@sandracroley9784]

Hello from Canada 🇨🇦 😊 😀. Your Calypso is lovely...I hope to start mine soon. I've chosen Rowan Felted Tweed...I've been wanting to try this yarn for a while. Also...Biches et Buches would be pronounced "beesh ay boosh".

[@everystitch.counts]

Thank you for the pronunciation!

[@Bobbleheadknits]

That sweater is gorgeous!

[@annewhitaker4429]

Love your Calypso sweater and it’s good to get to know a bit about the rest of your life as well as knitting. On the microphone another podcaster said that they have a good camera but find the best microphone is the iPhone and her podcast has good sound quality.

[@everystitch.counts]

I agree I like the iPhone audio better! One of these days I’ll invest in a better microphone for the camera :)

[@dorisenderle5857]

Lady is lovely. I had a rescue Aussie named Xena. She lived to 15 years old. Still miss her.

[@everystitch.counts]

She is the light of my life!

[@mairead5891]

Hello! I'm happy to have one podcast a month if that's all you want to do. I wouldn't want to stress you too much! But if you'd like to, and have the time I'd love to hear about your sewing! Knitting is my primary craft but I sew a lot of my own clothes too.

[@everystitch.counts]

I can’t wait until summer slows down and I have more time to put into sewing! I just got my machine up and running and need to find a good pattern to start with!

[@raches3038]

I've loved watching your first few videos! Your projects are gorgeous and I feel like we would be great friends in real life :)

[@everystitch.counts]

We probably would be! Maybe we will meet someday!

[@agnieszkastruczyk9178]

A really beautiful sweater, I love it! The neckband will look better if you put inside an elastic thread, it usually does the job, try it out.

[@everystitch.counts]

Oh I’ll have to try that thanks!

[@helaineroberts5971]

Love your podcasts! Good news - you can get the Rauma yarn from the Woolley Thistle in New Hampshire at very reasonable shipping costs.

[@everystitch.counts]

Thank you! You know I just recently discovered the wholly thistle! Thanks for mentioning it! I love that shop. Yea Cozy Yarn in Seattle also stocks it in their shop which I was VERY happy to discover!

[@jillianroger7744]

Charlotte, make videos on YOUR schedule! I don't think it's fair to yourself if you feel pressured to constantly make videos to make the algorithm happy. You do you!!!

[@rachelmitchell2144]

Amen to that!

[@sarabee6787]

Also to your last point, I would honestly be thrilled with whatever uploads you want to do, ha. I would love videos that go into your planning (patterns, colours, yarns, seasons) and analysis (revisiting FOs you've made to see how they've worn, how much wear they get, etc.). I think the way you marry colours and patterns together is so nice, and your colour choices are always so classic and gorgeous. :) Even if your plans change (mine do too!!! so much, lmao) even that's fun to see!

[@everystitch.counts]

Ok thanks! Noted!

[@soniaboudeau2140]

Hello Charlotte, ravie de vous revoir. Vos pull-over est très beau. J'ai une proposition de parler des différentes laine cet leur effet une fois tricoter. Personnellement, je suis souvent déçue de rendu après avoir vu mon échantillon. Merci d'avance, 🖐️🌹

[@rachelmitchell2144]

The mods you made to the Calypso are just lovely. The colors are vibrant with that red, but still classy. With your hair and earrings, I was totally getting Lauren Bacall vibes. 😁 I meant to say in the last video… culinary school dropout librarian. Props on embracing where you are now. 😉 With regards to content feedback, I really enjoy the sit downs. 😁 But, I also really enjoy the way you analyze yarn and how it behaves and feels. Your opinions come across quite balanced. For instance, I have never used spincycle and I was very curious how it behaved and what it felt like and now I feel like I have a good idea. 😉 So, it might be interesting to see what’s in your stash and hear your thoughts about the yarns that you’ve used or your thoughts on what you have and what you might use it on. Cheers. 💚🧶☕️🤓

[@everystitch.counts]

This is the best compliment anyone has ever given me! 😂

Love your Calypso, the colors are perfect for autumn. Happy making from Australia 👩‍🌾👩‍🌾👩‍🌾

[@barbararadzeviciusbondi4150]

Hello Charlotte. So glad to see you. Love the Calypso jumper you've knitted with the 70's vib. The colours are perfect.

[@everystitch.counts]

Thank you so much!

[@sarabee6787]

Regarding your notes on extending the colourwork yoke of your gorgeous new sweater, have you ever tried adding raglan increases? I first learned this from the Azor sweater by Orlane Suche (who is incredible) but I think the Ranunculus also does it. I hope this isn't too forward or telling you something you already know since you're a long-time knitter. :) I just love gushing about it since it adds a beautiful shaping around the armhole that offers a lot more movement (in my experience) and I think it can make yokes fit really nicely too! I add it to every single colourwork sweater I make now, haha.

[@everystitch.counts]

I have not done that before! Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to try that out!

[@janetjroberson2581]

Hello from Mounds Illinois!!!

[@everystitch.counts]

Hello from Seattle!

[@doriskuhberger8559]

Wonderful video. Just share whatever you like to share. I loved the last video you made about your thoughts. The sweater turn out fantastic. Love the colours, they suit you. The vest is going to look nice as well. Earth colours are really good on you. Thank you so much for sharing. Love and Blessings to you all. ❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏 Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘

[@everystitch.counts]

Thank you so much!

[@ruthjense6272]

Your sweater is beautiful. The Woolly Thistle in the U. S. sells a lot of European yarns, and has Rauma, for those who are here and need to find it. Enjoyed your podcast!

[@everystitch.counts]

Oh I just discovered them! Thanks for mentioning!

[@Abipolz]

I think once a month is a good pace for knitting updates. Your sound today had a lot of extras picked up, just a little distracting from your otherwise awesome content!

[@everystitch.counts]

Thanks for the tips!

[@verylikecheryl]

Delightful, thank you Charlotte 🧡🧶 It’s pronounced Beesh et Boosh. Silent ‘s’ 🤓
