[@lindseywhite3371]

I'm so sorry to hear about your lovely dog, sending you lots of love. xx

[@themindfulcreators]

Ah thank you so much Lindsey ❤️

[@shannonagain89]

I'm really sorry to hear about the loss of your childhood dog. 😞 I am sure you have many many happy memories to look back on fondly, and I hope they bring you some peace and comfort. ❤

[@themindfulcreators]

Thank you so much Avi, it just feels so weird but indeed nothing but good memories left. He was an amazing and special pup ❤️❤️❤️

[@knitting.your.life8]

what a beautiful color of the poppy tee, looooove it 😍

[@themindfulcreators]

Ah thank you so much 🥰❤️ I’m loving it a lot!

[@hearthsidehandmade]

Your tolsta tee is beautiful, I love the colors! It reminds me of seashells! I also have a preference for more snug necklines, the wider ones show my bra straps and slide around and totally bug me. I have had good success with adding in some elastic to my necklines to bring them up higher, it is very quick and easy to do. Hugs to you, the loss of a pet is one of the most painful experiences. He sounds like a very well loved and special little soul.

[@themindfulcreators]

Ah thank you so much! It does look like it right? I might just have try it again with this one. I find it a lot easier with double folded necklines, however this is a single one

Oh, I can't wait to get this merino/linen yarn, I love how the colour came out! About the Elisabeth blouse - I think that deep pinkish red would suit you very well - something like cranberry red maybe, with a hint of pink?

[@themindfulcreators]

Oeh a cranberry red would indeed be nice!! And the yarn is coming your way 🥰 I’ll be sending out a bunch or orders today!!

[@lindseywhite3371]

I've msde the Hermione socks, they were my first socks , and I love them, I highly recommend the pattern. I'm currently working on a Corran cardigan by Rebecca Clow, and a bandana to use up a ball of very pretty cotton I have left from a project xx

[@themindfulcreators]

That’s so good to know! Your project list sounds really fun! Enjoy making 🥰❤️

[@shamszakhour6076]

I love the Hermione Everyday Socks pattern! I just finished my first pair about a month ago.

[@themindfulcreators]

That’s so great to hear!! That makes me even more excited about starting them 🥰❤️

Hey Fem😊 you're 100% right, loss is so hard and the pain can continue and surprise us when we least expect it (I confess I also got teary towards the end of the video, but it's okay, I'm a very empathetic person and as I told you on Instagram, I sadly know that kind of pain quite well❤) But however, I also think this losses make us appreciate the love of our dogs even more, you with your Gussje (I hope the spelling is correct😅) and me with my Nina. On a more positive note, I finished the top I was working and now I'm continuing working on my Summer League cutoff by two of wands, it's going so fast!🎉

[@themindfulcreators]

Thank you so so much for you super kind comment Alice ❤️ It really means a lot to me. Loss is hard, but sharing it with others definitely help. Guusje definitely helps to distract me too haha. She is a feisty little girl sometimes 😂 Thank you again for sympathizing with me ❤️ Your projects sound super fun!! The summer league just seems like a really great staple

[@rozemichelle]

Hi Fem, I recommend you read the Stormlight Archive series! It's high fantasy and is my favorite series of all time. Highly recommend all the books Brandon Sanderson has written.

[@themindfulcreators]

Oeh I’ve never heard of it! I’m going to put it in my to read list! Thanks so much for the recommendation 😄❤️

[@shannonagain89]

For the Elisabeth - a lovely autumn/brick red (a few shades lighter OR darker than your hair, just as long as there is enough contrast between the blouse and your hair!) or a deep plum. 😍 It's hard to tell if your skin tone is warm/neutral/cool in this video (the lighting is not natural so it's hard to tell?) but I think you should lean more towards neutral, whichever color you end up choosing!

[@themindfulcreators]

Thank you so much for these tips!! I think that will be really nice indeed. Honestly, I’m not sure what undertone my skin is. One day I think I’m warm toned and the other day more cool toned. Maybe there is something in between? Haha. I think a more neutral color for that specific sweater would be really nice indeed!

[@Serenity-fu8xz]

You inspire me to follow my dreams thank you❤❤❤❤❤

[@themindfulcreators]

This is the best comment I could get 🥰❤️ Go for it girl!!

[@claudiasknits]

That pink linnen yarn 😍😍😍 How did you hide that from me?!?! I am so curious for that new base and would love to work with it. I prey you will make butter yellow happen haha 😅

[@themindfulcreators]

Hahaha I don’t even know how honestly 🤣 oh I hope so too! I’ll try again when I’m back home 👍😍

[@gingerglitter4ever]

Out of curiosity, do you ever do samples sales? I would love to buy one off skeins that are dye tests or something similar as I make a lot of baby / childrens items, I don't always need adult sweater quantity but it's so fun to have something unique and beautiful :)

[@themindfulcreators]

Hi there! I do 😄 from time to time I put up one of a kind skeins, I think I have one of those colors left right now. However I also regularly keep oopsie sales, around every four month. I will then sell oopsie skeins with a discount but also upload what I have left over of the skeins I swatch collection colors with. Those skeins have most of the times around 80grams of yarn left on them 😄 I’m not sure when that sale will be again but I update over on Instagram when those things happen 😄❤️

[@gingerglitter4ever]

@@themindfulcreators okay great! i'll keep an eye out there then! :)

[@amandacosteris2162]

Als je niet weet welke kleur je graag wil voor je breiwerk, zou je een keer kunnen kijken naar kleuranalyse. Dan weet je een beetje in welke hoek je kan zoeken😊

[@themindfulcreators]

Ik heb vorig jaar een kleur analyse gehad maar heb niet helemaal t gevoel dat wat daar uit kwam echt mijn kleuren zijn. Dit was een kleur analyse met een klein groepje, niet helemaal 1 op 1. Daar kwam een soft autumn uit. Zeker sommige kleuren van dat pallet passen maar soms heb ik t idee dat ik meer naar een true of deep autumn neig of zelfs een winter. Tis een beetje moeilijk te bepalen of ik nu een warme of koele ondertoon heb haha

[@lois-marietodd1502]

Color of yarn rusty red brick brown

[@themindfulcreators]

Oeh you’re the second person saying that!! Might have to look into that more 👀❤️
