First time here. YOu've done a great job Maddie! This is NOT a slow year! In fact, I know so many knitters that start so many things and NEVER finish anything. So Kudos for finishing things. Good luck on your job. And be positive! Rosie

“I didn't make that much” are you insane?! You made so much and it all looks amazing. I would suggest doing yoga for your wrists and shoulders (yoga is just great in general). Once a month The Wooly Thistle podcast has yoga for knitters. You did great! Be proud of yourself. Life is too intense to always be thinking you could do better. Great episode. Happy New Year 🎉 Happy knitting 💚🧶😘

I’ve actually been getting back into yoga recently! But get this- my main issue is pain when putting my weight on my wrists 😔 I need bionic joints lol

The prima pullover is soooooo freaking cute on you. And the step by step sweater?? The colors?? I love. I will say I’ve had some felting on the heels of my socks and it just depends on the yarn and how often you wear the socks. I can see why you love the cloud sweater sm, it has such clean finishes and the halo is so elegant. I just want to say that I think you made the perfect amount of stuff for you. I knit a total of 4 garments this last year, and while I would love to knit more this year I know that my life might not always allow me to do that. It’s amazing to see how high your slay ration was. Thanks for sharing!

this new haircut really suits you! I love your colour's combinations and (maybe also because I'm a slow knitter) to me it looks like you worked a lot this year and you really should be proud of the results!! Being here from the first video and I love to see how you're growing as a podcaster while keeping it simple and natural =)

Hi Maddie. First… I’m LOVING your new look my friend!!! It’s polished and cute at the same time. Next, you’ve done an incredible job on your second year of knitting. I have to say that my favs are your PetiteKnit sweaters… Amy and Cloud. They are perfection. I agree, she just writes/designs great patterns. Thanks for sharing. Good luck with Grad school and enjoy your down time because it will fly by. HUGS 🤗 ❤

I love you! You are so real! Yes, there were some flops, but man….there were some master pieces as well! You can definitely be proud of yourself. Totally agree with you on the amount of knits of some folks, but hey….each to their own….even if I have enough time , I do not have enough closet space :-)

A really good mechanism I have found for keeping track of even # increases (like in the sophie scarf/hood/shawl family) is by linking stitch markers together (# of stitch markers should be number of rows between increases/2) with a green marker at the end. Every right side, move one marker closer to the green stitch marker. When you get to the green marker, you know you will increase/decrease on the next wrong side. I did this for my sophie hood and didn't lose track once!

I’m having pretty good luck doing a Sophie hood right now and using this free tally marker app to keep track!

Sophie Scarf is not mindless in a way that you do need to track the increases and decreases but to me it's mindless in a way that I don't need to check the pattern every 5 min and in basically just doing the same thing for the whole scarf

This is a very good point and I apologize if my comments were perceived as Sophie scarf slander. I did in fact cast the Sophie hood on last night and am having a good time using a row counter 🫶🙂↕️

@@byathreadknits Oh no I didn't perceive it as Sophie Scarf slander! I was just trying say that in a way I agree with both points that it is at the same time mindless and not mindless! My output might sound like I thought it to be slander so i get it :D

The problem with adding motifs to size up a circular yoke is that it will distort the neck to be massive very quickly. Just wanted to put that here in case anyone tries it ❤

Ah shoot that does make sense. Thanks for the info!!! I wonder if there’s a way to adjust the collar to accommodate for extra repeats? Would short rows be of use for that? Just thinking out loud; I am clearly not a designer lol
