I am not a knitter but seeing what you have made makes me want to learn. The shawl that you made for your mum is beautiful. All the different color yarns just draws me in, they are so beautiful. I think it would be cool to learn how to knit socks. Thank you for sharing your love of yarn and knitting with us.

Thank you for tuning in and your kind comments. Maybe this fall you should cast on something simple and learn to knit?

I don't knit but that shop looked incredible! So many beautiful colours. Love the shawl for your Mum too 🙂

Thank you! 😊 this is how we are start knitting … step 1 - admire the beautiful yarn…. ;)

That shawl is amazing! So beautiful and airy. Your socks are really fun too. You choose nice yarn and pattern combinations. I love seeing your knitting as well as your stitching.

Awww thank you so much for the kind comments! One of the things I love most about knitting is playing with color, that and the textures of course!

Thanks for an other great video Arica! Beautiful projects as always, and beautiful yarn 🧶The Spincycle yarns' shop in the beginning was amazing! Looking forward to your next video 🥰🧶

Thank you for watching this video :) there’s definitely more cross stitchers than fiber ppl in this channel! So thank you for showing this video some love ❤️ and as for Spincycle, I feel like I could purchase everything! What I didn’t show was their room of AMAZING fabrics and hand dyes as well as a loom room!

@@FibersandFlossCanada Knitting is one of my big loves! I have, unfortunately, neglected it a little bit because I picked up stitching again after a very long period of no stitching at all, (we are talking about more than 10 years), so you know how it is, you get all excited with the "new" thing, but I knit, if not every day, at least a few hours during the week. Crocheting is also something I love but I try to learn a bit of sewing as well lately and there is not enough time to do everything as much as I'd like to unfortunately! But even though I don't find enough time for everything, my addiction to yarn is still there and as strong as ever. As someone said, buying the materials is a whole other hobby. I try to not have a big stash of yarn, just for the next two, three pairs of socks and a couple of shawls and maybe a sweater, not tones of yarn, but when I see yarn my eyes turn like in the cartoons, you know and get the yarn sign 🤑 Lately though I have the same 'problem" with stitching threads, fabrics, beads, paterns, everything, I just want everything that has beautiful colours and texture "sighs". I'll stop blabber now and I'll thank you one more time for all the effort you put on those beautiful videos, which I hope you'll continue😊 Till next time 🐑🛍🧶

@@stavroulak.503 haha I can definitely relate to that feeling! When I walk in and see the textures and colors…. Oh my…. I cannot help myself sometimes and it takes serious restraint to prevent purchasing yarn all the time lol!

[@MaryBurns-r2o]

I love seeing your knitting and yarn haul! I hope we can go shopping for yarn together sometime!
