So inspiring, all those beautiful fiber projects😍🧶. Love your gingerbread jumper, I have down loaded the pattern, might challenge myself and have a go at getting back into knitting🤔. What a generous gift the attic 24 blanket was, the ripples do look beautiful.

I enjoyed your catch up. Thank you. I have become a selfish knitter as well. 🤭 I have gifted little things but have even become more selfish in that area lately. I really am a generous person overall, but I was finding that I wasn't taking the time to make things (or finish them) for myself. Things that I really wanted to do, like make another sweater (jumper). That takes a long time. I love wearing my handmade socks. Those take me awhile also. I'm just not a fast knitter. I have other interests like sewing, quilting and mending. I can't seem to get to those projects if I'm making things for other people. I have a basket of socks to mend, and that's important. The wind chills are down to negative 20 Fahrenheit where I am in Michigan right now! Anyway, your sweaters are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing your ideas for living this year. I'm looking forward to hearing about the progress as the year goes on. I am also working on paring down my spending this year and hopefully increasing my garden productivity this summer. Take care, stay well, and stay warm. :)

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

hellooo thanks for tuning in its lovely to have your company😊😊 It sounds like I'm in good company I take ages too knitting as i just dont get alot of time & I agree I think when you invest so much energy into knitting a jumper or cardigan its very difficult to let it go....Ive done it once & my mum loves her jumper & wears it all the time but i just havent been able to do it again...😊😊I say to myself every year i will start my christmas knitting in January so I have plenty of time but it always ends up being a sprint to the finish line for christmas so alas its always hats & cowls for everyone...😃😃I think knitting is to be relaxing & enjoyed so we must come first...😃😃 I too look forward to hearing about your garden progress & your knitting hopefully 2024 will be a productive year for the both of us... have a lovely rest of your week...😊😊❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🐓🐓🐓🐓🍄🍄☃️☃️☃️⛄⛄🐭🐭🐭❄️❄️

Thank you for sharing your finished and to-be finished projects. Your purple jumper looks nice and cosy. You did a great job. I don’t think it’s selfish to not give away your jumpers, all those hours and money to buy or make the wool to knit them, may not be as appreciated by the receiver compared to yourself. Smaller things, like the coasters, would be a little easier to give away. By the way, the coasters turned out really nice. You mentioned that you’re thinking about not using the word knitting in your title and asked us viewers for suggestions. I’m not sure what you could use. I will say the word knitting in your title drew me to your channel. I can imagine it must be very hard to think of a title. As always, I enjoyed your video. Have a wonderful week 🧶🪡

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

HI Catherine...thank youuuuu you are lovely.....❤️❤️😊😊 I think thats very true especially with hand spun jumpers when i spin the yarn myself it can take hours just to spin the yarn....I do enjoy giving away smaller items though I dont get as attached to them ...😃😃 I agree i think i will leave the name as it is as it does contain alot of knitting so the knitting bit will stay as it is....at least for now until my channel grows more....😊😊❤️im so pleased you found me have a wonderful week lots of love to you from a very icy wales...❤️❤️😊😊🔥🔥🔥❄️❄️🐓🐓🐓🐓⛄⛄☃️☃️

Hi Hazel, lovely video with all your lovely finishes and WIPS. I won a beautiful bundle of yarn from Blacker yarn when Nola and I attended Yarndale in 2018, it included 2 skeins of lace weight St Kilda wool. I haven’t knitted any of it yet but after seeing you today am thinking of a cowl. Yeah! Re the socks. They are looking lovely. If you decide you want to do a knitted heal Winwick Mums free pattern and tutorial is so easy to follow. As you know she is by far my favourite sock knit designer. Your coasters turned out great as did the new jumper with the 3/4 length sleeves. I love the cable cardie too. I’m tempted to knit one in Winter. Well I had better finish my first Treasure Knit sock (Winwick Mums KAL this year) and cast on the 2nd one. Xx ❤️🌺

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

Hi Lenore... thank youuuuu Im glad you enjoy the podcast I really enjoyed making this one as there was so much variety to share....❤️❤️😊😊 I am really enjoying knitting my St Kilda yarn it is so lovelt to knit with i cant put it down.....so you should definitely root it out you will get a nice size shawl out of one skein it goes a long way....very stretch too so will be cosy round the neck...😊😊❤️ I really must look us winwick mums pattern sounds like a good one to learn with..😊😊 have a lovely week lots of love from a very chilly wales this morning.... ❤️❤️😊😊☃️☃️☃️☃️🐓🐓🐓🐓💕💕🍄🍄🔥🔥🔥🔥
