The clouds and hearts stitch markers are so cute! I agree about choosing colors for baby blankets. In the 80s I made a granny square blanket for my friend’s baby. The “baby” who is almost 40 now still uses it!

[@RunWithHooksNYarn]

Those scraps from Jenny would absolutely make cute mermaid-ish socks! Those are the vibes I was getting from them. The bag, well both, is so beautiful!!! And with the cute bee stitch markers are my favorite. Thank you for sharing your morning with us. I enjoy my Friday morning knitting and coffee with you ♥️♥️

[@andimallinger1822]

Hi Kay. I loved seeing all of your projects. I too have pictures of my grandparents hanging up, so I know the joy you receive when walking by. Family is everything. I’ve been in such a spring mood(snow coming though 😮) so the bees and flowers were my favorite and that bag- oh my 🥰

[@michellekitson5405]

Hi Kay. The photos of your grandparents are lovely. The zebra socks you did for a gift turned out great. Love the socks you are knitting for Wyatt Lovely colours. The cable sweater you are knitting is looking beautiful. I really like the bees and flowers stitch markers and the lovely flowers bag too. Hope you didn't end up with storms and you got all your errands done. Take care

[@melsharp4613]

How cute are the bees! I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth out when I was 21. They were impacted in my jaw and my face would swell up like a balloon every time they moved. The guy who had his surgery before me ate a steak and went home the same day....I spent 4 days in hospital and lived on KFC potato and gravy for about 2 weeks because I couldn't eat much else. Fingers crossed Wyatt's surgery goes well, and hopefully you won't have any problems with yours. Have a great weekend xx

[@jackiewalsh3869]

Bee stitch markers are really cute

[@chrislopez5337]

I had four wisdom teeth and a molar out at the same time and didn’t have too much trouble. I paid extra to be completely knocked out because I’m a huge baby when it comes to dental work. Hope it goes well for you and Wyatt. 🤗

[@jeanm1363]

I could never pick out of the stitch markers, they are Al so cute. Making your morning coffee socks now.

[@kristendonovan5861]

I knit my husband a cable sweater a couple years ago and I was so "done" with cables that I have avoided them since. I admire anyone who knits cables and thinks it's fun. Someday I'll give them another chance...

[@SparkyJoon]

I'm one of those cable lovers. Most of the socks I've knit are cabled, never made vanilla socks. I figure if I want plain socks, I can get them anywhere 😊.Finished my first sweater in February, an Inishturk for myself, and have another one (XXXT for my husband) 3/4 of the way done. ❤ doing cables!

[@blindrootinhogs]

Love that guitar bag ! ...and the bee stitch markers ! Such a beautiful baby blanket !

[@dianaemmick1811]

Oh Kay, that blanket is stunning! I think the recipient of those wildcats socks needed to wear them tonight…oooph. That blue bag is cute and any of those stitch markers are so sweet! I’ve been in a reading slump, but those McFadden mysteries sound so good!

[@patriciabuuck5277]

Your grandparents pictures are so nice. I love that you put them on the wall where you can see them everyday. The cable sweater is beautiful!😊

[@bevsanchez-parodi1617]

It was so sweet of your sister to bring you those special pictures. I am also Nanny to my five grandkids. It’s a very special name. The bag is beautiful and would go great with the bees and flowers.

[@normajeansicard4842]

Hi Kay! What a great reminder of your memory at going to your Grandma's for Sunday breakfast! Great progress on the sweater. I like the stitch markers with the cloud and hearts. I need to go shop at Bags by Awesome Grannie. Awwwww that is so sweet that you now have the pics of your Grandparents.

[@anitafernandes2787]

That family picture is precious. Love those cute flowers and bees. They go perfectly with the floral project bag.

[@LDSVenus]

All the stitch makers are cute, would make no difference to me. I love your rainbow ripple baby blanket, I’m sure it will be loved. Love the something in the orange colorway socks, they are gorgeous! The cabled sweater is coming right along, it will be a happy memory when you finish it and Wyatt is wearing it!

[@rachelgorrell2795]

The baby blanket is so adorable! Something the recipient can treasure 💕 The cloud and heart stitch markers are sweet.

[@katiebonnell3756]

Those scrappy socks you plan to make will be so fun! The cloud with hearts are really cute. Yay for finishing 72 stitch socks, it always makes knitting 64 stitch socks feel so much faster for a while!

[@chickiemagoo9995]

Hi Kay, so loving the socks you're making for Wyatt in the orange stripe, gorgeous colourway! I've always loved your Mountain State Stitches bag when you show it with your project and now there's a sister bag??? Yes please, and I adore the "Made with Love" progress keepers the best because any hand knit is something that is made WITH LOVE! I hope you can take a nice pic of Wyatt in his new jumper/sweater, it won't be long now and it's finished! Happy knitting! 💞

[@sunnisilva1092]

The tiny bees are too cute! My niece is pregnant and I want to make her and the baby all the things! I'm trying to choose colors for a quilt and quickly decided I didn't want to just use pale baby colors. I want it to be used for years and years, hopefully.

[@teresaharp]

The bees and flowers are so adorable. The cable sweater is looking amazing. I wonder if I will ever have the nerve to try a cable sweater😊. Very sweet of Jen to send an extra bag, it is beautiful. Have a great week

[@Woollykindknits]

Love the little smiling cloud stitch marker and the beautiful blue bag. Thank you for more excellent knitty inspiration!

[@user-vo9jr3uy7b]

The bag and bee stitch markers are so pretty! And I love seeing your progress on Wyatt's sweater! It is a good reminder that I don't have to plow through my projects (especially long term projects.) I can take my time and enjoy the process!

[@alexahoyt1690]

The bee stitch marker is adorable. I love the way Wyatt's sweater is coming out. The cables look gorgeous in that colour!

[@shelleyfry]

That’s so lovely that you have those photographs of your grandparents. I have so few of mine. Happy to be a little bit envious of that. Just so glad to see the joy they bring you 💜

[@Blaize24]

Fabulous socks, as always. Wyatt's sweater is looking amazing and you're so fast (even when you cut down on your daily amount). The baby blanket is wonderful, too. I collect bee things, so if I won I'd love the bee and flower stitch markers.

[@HeyItsAmes]

Every time I see your crochet it makes me want to get better at it but the siren call of knitting won't let me! 😆 Love everything!

[@fg1890]

Love that you have the memories of your grandparents. Such a blessing. I'm a huge fan of mountain state stitches so I have my fingers crossed for that beautiful bag and heart stitchmarkers!!!!

[@krinehart3775]

Seeing your grandparents photos really is precious. Your excitement at having them makes me want to have copies made to share with family of the ones I have of mine. Thanks for sharing!

[@yvonne3074]

Hi Kay, Thank you for another wonderful episode. The sweater for Wyatt is going to be incredible when it is done. What a fabulous gift. I have a great nephew arriving next month and although I made a lovey for the baby, I'm thinking I may need to crochet a blanket. Those stitich markers are adorable. I love the bees. So cute. Thank you for the project inspiration.

[@janetgillett7122]

Love the baby blanket! The colors are so vibrant, you wouldn’t be able to stop smiling if you were wrapped up in it!

[@heatherpearson3784]

I would Bee thrilled to win any of your prize drawings . I love knitting socks and never really worry about what size they end up being as there are so many knit worthy family members and they all love wearing my socks.

[@helenmoffat2353]

The bees and flowers are so cute. I’m just back from visiting family, I took three pairs of fingering weight socks and one worsted weight pair of socks for gifts, along with two cowls, and have requests for more socks. No rest for sock knitters!

[@user-mu5sb5rb2b]

I loved those Zebra yarn socks. They turned out so great!! Wyatt's sweater is looking lovely too. Would love to win the giveaway. Those bags are adorable and the stich markers with the flowers and bees are just precious!! Have a good week❤

[@jennifermccarthy1561]

I am always amazed at the amount of knitting you get done in a week, even when you have weekend company! Love all the things!

[@RoumerBloomer]

Thank you for cheering me up this Sunday evening. The combo of the bag and the stitch markers is so lovely. The bees for the flowers or the cloud with the little hearts? Either would look soooo good with bag… Hope the storm wasn’t too bad if it rolled in. 😊

[@CrazySockLady]

❤️❤️

[@alicehayden4118]

Love the hearts and cloud progress keepers. It is so good to see you happier and less stressed these days.❤

[@leezersgoon4652]

All of Jenny’s bags are made with love. Love the bag and made with love stitch markers. Thanks for sharing all your knitting/crocheting goodness with us💕

[@susanrohe4161]

After devouring all your videos and utubes, I’m turning into a miniature you…I can’t quit either. Socks are such a comforting and relaxing thing to do. Thanks for your happy hour every week! Keep up the good work❤️

[@SarahRankin-fj8cw]

Those black and red striped socks turned out great! I use Cascade sock yarn a lot, too, so it's fun to see your Wildcat socks working up. Yes keep knitting socks! (And I love the bees stitch markers.

[@samanthagardiner6009]

I love watching your podcast each week. The crochet baby blanket is gorgeous as are the bee stitch markers. I live near Manchester in the UK and the bee is very much associated with the city so anything with a bee always catches my eye.

[@gladyswoelm4918]

Those progress keepers are so so cute. I like the pack with the bee in it. So sweet.

[@lilianarose8275]

Hi Kay. I love those little bee stitch markers! … also the cabled sweater for your son is looking great. It’s a pattern that I’d be intimidated by but seeing it grow week by week is so helpful.

[@barbh1505]

The baby blanket is very cute…lucky baby who receives it. The stitch markers with the daisies and bees are adorable.

[@katejohnson3206]

Those bee stitch markers go great with that bag. Everything you showed was lovely, as always! Thanks so much for your kindness!!

[@marybeth123]

Wow the bag is so pretty. I love all the stitch markers…I think my favorite are the made with love. Thank you for your vanilla sock pattern and video…it has allowed me to make socks…I have already made 6 pairs already….#7 on the way love it…the first pair was for me…and the rest for gifts…love making them for people…it gives me joy seeing how happy they are to receive them..

[@O1iviaR]

I love that you all swap yarn scraps! So fun! The project bag is so beautiful. 😍😍

[@anneellison8188]

Great job on those red and black striped socks! Love them. Glad to hear you had a fun weekend with your sister. That's really cool that she owns your grandparents home and its still in the family. What a treasure that is for you all. I like the bee and daisy stich markers in case I win. Thanks and have a good weekend!

[@cathy3628]

Thanks so much for all your sock tutorials--you are the reason I am able to knit socks today! Love the bees and flowers.

[@bonniekilbourn8706]

Loving the baby blanket so much! These starburst afghans look nice on the corner/foot of the bed too. If I’m lucky to win the giveaway, I’d like the bee set. Thank you and I look forward to seeing you next time.

[@Kieancreations]

Hello Lady! I’m gonna have to try that crochet baby blanket…and I love using non traditional baby colors as well. Your work on the cabled sweater is beautiful. And who doesn’t love cute project bags! Those little cloud and hearts progress keepers are adorable, love the idea of making rain a bit cheerful.

[@colleenmadigan3373]

I love the stitch markers with the bees and flowers! The bag is adorable! I love your channel, and learning with you. Thank you for all you do!

[@irisstewart7852]

Hi Kay, love the "sport" socks. I ordered the Lump of Coal yarn and made my first pair of socks for myself using your pattern on 9 inch circulars. Thank you for the discount you gave everyone for the pattern during Christmas. I like the flower stitch markers. Thank you for your generosity !!! The Lord has blessed us.

[@lmgl69]

I love the daisies and bees! Love watching your videos. Recovering from hand surgery so I’m passing my time by watching knitting videos, reading and loom knitting hats for projects we do at church. Good luck with Austin’s wisdom teeth and hope yours don’t get bad.

[@Tinacrafts2]

Wonderful to see your granny and pawpaw. I know she’s looking down at you with love. I bought her “Touch of Pink” cross stitch pattern when you showed that! At the rate you’re going I bet you’ll get Wyatt’s sweater done while he’s still that size. My hubby used to raise bees when we lived near Mansfield, so the bees and flowers were my favorite progress keepers. Be well….

[@shelbycyr7106]

Absolutely love the bee with daisys stitch markers! Reminds me of my grandma who passed a few years back. She loved daisys! The bag is also gorgeous! The sweater looks so good!! I want to learn how to knit cables but am very intimidated by them!💙

[@samanthacaravella2756]

The project bags are adorable! I’m getting so excited for spring. I think I want to start one of those crochet blankets for my 2 year old. Having a color changing cake makes everything so much easier and I LOVE it!

[@deborahmead5978]

I love the project bag and the stitch markers with the flowers and the bees. 💜

[@ravensrockknits]

Love the bees 🐝. And hearts & clouds ⛅️. Very cute. Some gorgeous projects as always 😊

[@kathyp790]

Wyatt's sweater is looking spectacular! What a generous give away - Jenny's bag is beautiful and the Crafty Maritimer stitch markers are so cute, my favorite is the bees and flowers set. Great podcast!!

[@susiepaunan7190]

Love the flower and bee set! Such beautiful projects, yarn and goodies. Love to see your updates each week. ❤

[@sandraalmanza4233]

Happiness is : summer, bees and flowers. Love your positive podcasts - watching is so uplifting and motivating.

[@nellievk4727]

The flower and bee stitch markers are totally Spring vibes. So ready for Spring!

[@drewharder4144]

Awwwww, that cloud and hearts stitch marker set is so sweet! My 6 year old daughter, who just learned to knit, would LOVE them!!

[@erayeda.t]

I'm a sucker for the blue and white combination, it reminds me of beautiful chinaware and traditional quilts 💙

[@JSwift-zd7ng]

I look forward to your videos each week. It's inspiring to see/hear all you get done in a week. I learned to make socks with your vanilla sock tutorial last year, and I can't stop making them either! The heart markers are sweet! ❤

[@wildflowermagicknits]

I always have several "no way this will fit" panic moments when I'm making ribbed/cabled things that look so tiny on the needles 🤣 Blocking is really magical! The bee stitch markers are so cute!

[@samburch1321]

The bumble bee progress keepers are SO cute! 😍 making great progress on Wyatt’s sweater! I love the color 🥰

[@ricaarie4439]

The bees and flowers stitch markers are so cute! I love the Something in the Orange yarn, that's my favorite song currently!

[@sandrakerr9987]

The floral bag is beautiful and the bee & flower stitch markers are so cute! Your sweater is coming along beautifully!

[@shelleymisenheimer6515]

I love the Bee and Flower stitch markers. So cute. You inspired me to start a scrappy Jelly Roll Blanket. I’m having a lot of fun with it! It’s not very big yet, but it will be fun to watch it grow.

[@marionogletree8533]

Made with love stitch markers expresses all the love I put in my knitted projects ❤❤

[@lauracarnie6652]

Because so many of my knits are gifts, the knit with love speak to me. Always am challenged and inspired by all of your projects.

[@heidisamataro2069]

Hi Kay, love your weekly videos! Your son's cabled sweater is gorgeous. You are giving me the urge to cast on a sweater -- haven't knit one in years. I love all the stitch markers but I'd have to say the clouds and hearts are my favorite. Thanks for helping me start my day off with a smile!

[@harveyshatraw6491]

Hi Kay, I’m extremely grateful for your sock tutorials! I use to knit mostly hats for all of my grands noggins but now I’m covering their toes! Who knew sock knitting is so addicting. Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm. Gramma Harv (Deusprovidebit)

[@allgirlreview433]

The bees and flower markers are so cute! Love the blanket you are making with leftover yarn.

[@maumaumoi]

The project bag is very beautiful. I love the little bees stitch markers.

[@lindataylor4397]

Please continue to post socks videos. I have all of your patterns and you have taught me so much about sock knitting.

[@carolinedubose5136]

The guitar bag and the blue floral bag are so nice!! Wyatt's new socks remind me of mixed vegetables!! Very springy !! The bee and flower stitch markers are very cute!!

[@roos7631]

Oooh the little bee stitchmarkers are perfect for spring! And those scraps Jenny send you look so cute together!

[@rebeccablankenship5493]

When I taught school, I was Mrs. B I talked kindergarten and we were the busy bees. Love the bee stitch markers. I so enjoy seeing your scrappy blankets. That may be my next long term project.

[@dianagoldermann1005]

I’m completely in love with the beautiful 12 point Star baby blanket it’s so beautiful. I really like the pink heart with the cloud stitch markers. I also never miss a podcast from you your such an inspiration and also a very talented knitter. Thank you

[@CrazySockLady]

Thank you♥️♥️

[@ABuckeyeBeth]

Such a great baby blanket!! Definitely added to my “favorites”! And I love the “bee theme” notions!!

[@AKight_2019]

Love all your projects and all the beautiful yarns! The Bees 🐝 and flowers 🌺 StitchMarkers are the cutest! 😊

[@liryknits]

I'm always amazed by all the things you are doing in a week. (I need to remind myself that I'm working and have long drive to go to work, so not to compare myself.) The "made with love" stich markers are definitely my favorites!

[@EvieO1950]

Hope all goes well for you and Austin. The scrappy socks with scraps from Jenny will be adorable. The sweater is looking great, totally get cutting back on rows to make it in with your schedule. The made with love stitch markers are so cute! Take care!!

[@ambermullineaux64]

I have my grandparents wedding photo hung up in my house.❤ Brings a smile to my face every time I look at it. 😊 Thanks for another great episode, I love the bees and flowers stitch markers!

[@nellieisbelle]

The Bees are so cute. I had all my wisdom teeth removed when I was 19. They were already erupted. But those darn roots were starting to give me the worst migraines. Then 3 weeks later I found out I was pregnant with my oldest.

[@star_athena]

I have been in such a making slump! You’re inspiring me to maybe get going on some socks or a jelly roll. I also think I need to put up a picture of my grandparents. I miss them, especially my grandma, so much! She taught me to knit. The clouds and hearts are soooo cute! ❤❤❤

[@cattrinadavis8624]

The sweater is beautiful, I finished my son’s first sweater this past month. He loves it so much. I love that he loves it. ♥️ The bees and flowers, and clouds and hearts stitch markers are so cute! I love your podcasts, thank you!

[@normawoodburn9430]

Love the bag and the flower stitch markers. Watching at the airport and knitting a sock until my flight boards. Socks are the best projects for traveling!

[@babs6434]

Liked the bee & flower stitch markers. So neat you have great memories of your grand parents.

[@annettemartig1754]

I had a similar relationship with my grandparents. My grandma is the first to put yarn in my hands. A thought on the baby gift for your cousin... maybe send her a pair of socks for her to wear post-partum. I'm sure she would love them

[@sarahstephen1363]

I think the baby blanket is perfect, I like that it’s not “traditional” baby blanket shape or colours. The bee bag is adorable, nice pattern to celebrate that Spring has arrived.

[@amymcdonald9033]

I love all of the small scraps! Scrappy projects are my favorite!! The project bags are super cute!

[@wollepluisje3217]

Love the bees and flowers, especially with spring around the corner🌷

[@laurarimkis2472]

Those little hearts with the cloud are the sweetest!!!

[@debdouglas7345]

I love your baby blanket. All your works are beautiful. All your stitch markers are adorable.

[@ClaireGentry-oz1mb]

I love the bag Jenny sent! And the bee and flower stitch markers!!! So cute! I discovered you recently, and I love watching your episodes while I have a much needed "brain break" from studying my kinesiology. I love knitting my socks while seeing all of your works-in-progress. It has kept me going in this class, so thank you!! My husband said that since I have been watching the crazy sock lady I have become one :D It helps me to be a productive knitter while I'm in school.

[@lynnclough28]

I am always amazed at how much you can accomplish in a week. I guess as I get older and my hands shake and eyes are weaker, I have slowed down appreciablely. I do love anything with bees as we kept bees for years, much longer than I have been knitting.

[@CrazySockLady]

❤️❤️

[@sophiewiest1493]

Ooh that project bag looks almost exactly like the tile stickers I ordered! Soo beautiful! I moved in this appartement a year ago and finally started to decorate and stuff, so I ordered tile stickers to spruce up my 90's kitchen and the plain white bathroom. I also decided on some home decor yarny things that I work on once a week and it starts to feel home now, amazing what of a difference it makes. I also made a granny square blanket last year and now I started on weaving in ends during the video, I look forward to it being done. Thanks for another entertaining episode, happy knitting!

[@KaliOtto4]

I’ve been loving knitting for others too! I started a cozy memories blanket with all my scraps from all the socks.

[@StarflowerStables]

The bees are sooo adorable 🥰. Wow Wyatt’s sweater is really coming along nicely. He’s going to love it.
