Flosstube 11: Sometimes I Knit

[@allisonwaters3978]

Props to you and your outreach colleagues 👏you have no idea how many kids just got a kernel of hope that they could do what y’all do. I’d love a video of your other crafty projects. And that Lace cross stitch project 😮❤ whoa

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thank you, I hope we had that impact! I get excited every time I see it too :)

Welcome back to the cold & rain 🥶. It can’t last forever, summer will come. I’d love to see more of your knitting & crochet. I’ve considered knitting a sweater for our small dog - he gets cold after he’s been groomed.

I’m am enjoying the sun finally setting after 6pm! And you totally should, I found it pretty easy and fast!

[@rui6196]

Another great video. Can’t wait to see your secret project 😊! 💚, your biggest fan.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

😉 thanks Dad!

[@pathansen4368]

Great video. Have a great week and happy Stitching!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thanks! You too!

Glad to see you are knitting a bit. I have been ignoring my knitting, but just last week thought maybe it was time to break out the needles and knit Remi a sweater. So we shall see. I love the little crochet animals you made for me and Grandma Jean and use them everyday as pin cushions in the sewing room and craft room. We even still use the coasters you and Lauren knitted for us when you were little girls!! Glad you had a great trip. I really love the lace piece you are working on - tempted to try one again, but not sure my old eyes are up for it although they are much better since the surgery.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Kids sweaters should go pretty fast! I would say go for it, and just use a larger weave fabric or a good magnifier/magnifying glasses. I see lots of people using magnifiers!

[@stitchyduck]

I'd love to see all your other non xstitch craft stuff. The dog sweater is an adorable project.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Awesome! I’ll keep sharing!

As one of my other favorite FlossTubers (elizabethanncanstitch) says 'Craft is Life'. 😊 It was fun to see your knitting ... please continue to share your other crafty pursuits. Sounds like your trip to Hawaii was a big success. Good job!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thank you! I will!

[@pameladutton5920]

Multi crafting is always interesting! Would love to see your other crafty endeavours

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Awesome, thanks!

[@kensingtoncreates]

I am finally able to catch up on Flosstube and, lo, such a lovely shout out - thank you! 😊 Your comments about knitting instead of cross stitching made me laugh too. I've learned that when I travel, the only craft project I don't want to work on is the one I planned on. 😆

[@STEMxSTITCH]

You’re welcome! And honestly, that really is how it works sometimes 🙃

[@rebeccajourney3183]

I just finished watching Microbiologist Makes, love her too❤ will check out Cam & Marjorie!!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

You definitely should!

[@britches__get__stitches]

Welcome back! So glad you had such an amazing experience!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thank you!!

So happy that you had a great time doing your outreach program and that you were able to incorporate a mini vacation in at the same time. Wonderful progress on your stitching especially since you were doing a knitting project as well. I hope Herbie loves his new sweater and hope to see a picture of him wearing it soon. I would enjoy a video of your other craft endeavors. I got my cast off but am having some issues with my carpal tunnel, probably from residual swelling and stiffness but it is getting better each day so am well on the mend. I hope you can share some photos of your trip at some point if you feel comfortable doing so. Have a great week and happy crafting.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thanks Dawn! I hope you heal quickly! I’ll try to put some pics in my next video.

[@marjoriemade]

Thank you so much for the sweet shoutout! I absolutely love your videos and am so glad you have enjoyed mine 😊 Your trip sounds like it was a great experience!

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Absolutely! Your channel is awesome 😁

[@mlcoffey2]

I love your non crossstitch projects. I also crochet and I'm learning to knit. Right now my knitting looks like I did it with my feet but it will get better. I love the simplicity of knitting. Its very calming. Also my daughter is a crocheter and we're exploring dyeing our own yarn to get the the colors that we really want. Spring and summer will be busy.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

It takes a minute to get a consistent gauge, but pretty soon it will be second nature! Yarn dying sounds so fun! I have been thinking about dyeing my own fabric or floss but haven’t fallen down the rabbit hole quite yet.

[@thediddystitcher]

What a beautiful Elegant Lace 😍

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thank you!

[@Chris-lv2en]

Thank you. I would be interested to see knitting and crochet also! Best wishes.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Great, thanks!

[@KEBStudioCreations]

I would enjoy seeing your other crafts

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Awesome!

[@stitchyduck]

I feel like not many flosstubers show their actual stitching setup or how they stitch, I remember you showed a k's creations z frame in a previous video and I was wondering where do you use it and if we could see how you do your projects? Two-handed or one, how you start and end thread, etc.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thanks for the curiosity! I’ll add this to my list questions for the next video!

[@cindysells1032]

Enjoyed this video as always. I would be interested in anything you would like to share. More crafts, school, life anything you like.

[@STEMxSTITCH]

Thank you so much 😊
