I love the sock pattern & the star sweater. The star design is awesome…

[@bettyfockler551]

Mountain Lions - oh my! We have coyotes all around my farm & it is chilling to hear them howling evenings several acres away where they’ve been seen. I stumbled upon their killing field in my woods last spring. Just bones & more bones. Cannot imagine your situation near your house! I discovered a great sock yarn of 80% wool & 20% mohair all local Canadian to Fleece & Harmony called Bramble which they prepare and put up in their mill on PEI. 400yds/104gr/3 ply. You might enjoy it too. Good luck with the Sleepy Kitties. I’ve made several of Susan B Anderson’s Patterns. She does know what she is doing! 😉. Lots of fun. Thank you for sharing your podcast.

Jessica I love your new sock designe and love the star and can’t wait for the pattern you working on 😊😊 so sad about your sheep, I’d be scared to but like you so upset , send prayers to you all 😊😊😊

[@judithburke3637]

I’m glad you are all safe thsnkyou for 5he podcast loving the sock pattern xx

[@maryp1224]

Jessica, I am so sorry to hear about your sheep.....so scary. But you are taking the right steps. I hope it all works out for you and all stay safe. The star pattern is so pretty, and I LOVE the colors. it would look so nice like just above the ribbing on the bottom of a sweater. just a border on the bottom.

[@Jackie-Knits]

Looking forward to Bough's release....i have the yarn on hand for a toddler-sized one.... Forest Green with silver gray colorwork in a luscious merino yak blend. Little grandson can't have too many hand-knit sweaters!!

[@selfishknitter]

I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving, and can’t wait to see your car knitting progress! The giant star motif would look great around the bottom of a sweater. 😊

[@gaydelltrumblee304]

I love the new large star motif! I will definitely be knitting your socks with this pattern.

[@wendykelcey1246]

Wow! You have had such a lot on your plate lately! Day by day… things will get better!

[@cynthiatennant9896]

Jessica I’m so sorry about the loss of your sheep! It’s sad. I hope the mountain lion situation gets resolved soon. I have just started my first sweater, your Woodsmoke pattern. I’m knitting a size two for a family member and I really appreciate all the work you put into the tutorial to go along with it. I love the pattern on the sock you’re designing now. Have a wonderful, blessed thanksgiving ❤

[@noramcdonald2669]

So happy I found you! Love all your color work designs. I have not done a color work sweater yet but I will start with yours! ❤

[@KariEngblom-Youkey]

Really love the sock colorwork motif!! ❤ Cougar...not so much! I had my first cougar encounter in our yard this summer...still spooked! 20+ years of plenty of sign...I know they are there, but seeing one in close vicinity....the most terrifying and beautiful animal experience of my life! ( I lived in bush Alaska...so i have had quiet a few!... but no cougars up there! 😂) our neighbors had a great old gaurd dog that passed a few years ago and my old husky who passed last spring😢....pretty sure they are why I never actually encountered one for 18 years! Glad you got a puppy!

[@ekast5446]

Oh my goodness (sheep story) hopefully good dog will short out everything. Love the new star design ... cannot wait to see what cool thing u come up with. Happy Thanksgiving! And safe travels.

[@nadinestapler3881]

The kitten’s such a cute project. I think I’ll try it.😊

[@theknittystew]

That is so scary about the mountain lion… I hope the state wildlife department helps you get that sorted. I just love your colourwork designs. I’m really looking forward to Bough and also mesmerized by the giant snowflake. Huge Susan B Anderson fan over here. I love that you’re making your kids Sleepy Kittys.

[@MsMegil]

So sorry you’ve all been ill. I had to chuckle though as I’ve just come through Covid and my biggest complaint to my family was “I can’t knit!”.

[@gracec.4399]

The star is gorgeous! Can't wait to see the completed pattern.

[@lisas3268]

I am working on the Blizzard sweater right now, and also smiled so big when you followed up talking about the Rambler yarn! I bought 2 skeins from Battenkill Fiber at NY Sheep and Wool last month. I am patiently finishing up a sock before I cast on socks with it! The colorwork looks amazing!

[@goswamigeeta]

Waiting to see your star swatch put into a beautiful sweater or a cardigan may be.

[@Bellanewmoon21]

Love the star!

[@lahibs]

Love this star.. can’t wait to see the full pattern. Good luck.

[@karenalbery2773]

Wow that star! I need it. I dont care if you put it under the arm or on the back of the sweater . Wherever its beautiful

[@nadinestapler3881]

Looking at your swatch I see a pillow. Pretty color.

[@julieknitsinthewoods2987]

Glad you’re feeling better ❤ yikes! The mountain lion! We were surprised the other night when a pack of coyotes made themselves known as we were taking our dogs out at night. Love nature but definitely have a healthy respect for it. So excited to be testing Boughs for you 🎉 Happy Thanksgiving

[@andreabush1742]

I love your tutorials and designs, I bought three so far. Thanks

[@deborahddenmark]

I strongly recommend a pair of LGDs vs a single. I had two Pyrs and read somewhere that between the two of them they could of taken down a bear. Watching them just playing with each other I tend to believe that.

[@noramcdonald2669]

Sorry about your sheep. Love your sock pattern. I’d like to try them. I am new to your podcast and I subscribed. I love your taste in patterns. Happy Thanksgiving

[@deborahderden4860]

Please tell me you and your husband carry a gun if you have to go out near the evening or early morning. Have you considered making a triangle shawl with the stars in a band in the V pattern coming out of the point of the V? Sorry, it is easy to draw but hard to describe.

[@lisastephens77]

Maybe you could rescue a Pyranese.
