1 min in and Jonathan seems to be on a roll, hit the ground running with this episode The traveler cowl is amazing, love how the colors are arranged.

[@LadyOfLaMancha19]

Always a joy!

[@MissSholia]

I had never thought of doing a provisional cast-on with a rubber cord. It's a good idea! And the Cream on Top Spincycle matches quite perfectly the painting on your wall lol! It's so nice when we find THE perfect skein for us.

[@guineverecassidy4855]

So enjoying knitting your Utility Shawl. I am approaching the halfway point of the larger size. It is truly a joy and relaxing knitting adventure.

[@TheSouthpawKnitter]

Cream on top colorway. All the colors from the artwork over your bead.

[@conniewright2240]

I vote for the reading list!

[@nicoleanderson3347]

Thanks for visiting Cream City Yarn Jonathon!

[@GeorginaJAMET]

Just love the tesselated cardigan on you - looks fantastic !

[@noreenlynne]

We’re going to need both - journaling and book list!

[@LoriParsons]

Hi Jonathan! As always it’s great to catch up with you☺️I love your cardigan…absolutely gorgeous!

[@thewoollycloset]

Books!! 📚 definitely! Loved the episode ❤

[@river.yelland.browning]

Amazing podcast. I'm a stationary person too so I'd love to see a podcast all about yours 😊

[@KnitCheek]

This was my first time tuning in. Loving all your knits! 😊

[@neilstephen6761]

Thank you for sharing

[@easternsecrecy9777]

I love your cardigan!

[@lynnstewart135]

Journaling!!! ❤

[@gretchen292]

The Journaling vid sounds great!

[@DCSquirrel]

Can’t wait for test knit details. So excited on how this channel has progressed from episode 1. Kudos to you ❤.

[@gabrielecarter5440]

I would love to see your journaling ideas! That cream on top colorway: WOW! One of these days I would love to go to the Spincycle Store in Washington State. I can only imagine how awesome that would be. I think you've inspired me to try the Rad Plaid cow. Your cardigan looks amazing.

[@sara.gardinier]

Re: the sleeve on your cardigan - give it a block now and see if it grows enough! I love love love a mid-project block. It helps me get the best fit possible.

[@charlaine8235]

Love your Bosca cowl with that beautiful spincycle colorway, definitely would love to hear what you have read.

[@Miffy_creates]

Gee your cardi is beautiful a real labour of love. Thanks for sharing your trips & purchases…I loved seeing those spin cycle colours that are just for those shops. I’d love the next video to be what you’re reading…I’m curious to know what genre you like 😊

[@nicoswanmakes]

What a wonderful life you have created ❤ truly, it's a joy to see. Thank you for sharing with us! Can't wait to see the videos after the retreats. I have family in St.Paul and in Albuquerque but I've not gone shopping in either places yet. Just not enough time because every last drop of time is spent with eachother but maybe I'll peel away from everyone next time 😅 we shall see if I can pull that off. Take care of you too! Oh! 📚books!

[@anetteshobby]

Books ❤

[@Richard_Szobi]

Nice episode as always. I would be interested to see your sewing updates. ❤

[@RachelB_13]

Great video! I love the mini stretch at the end, that was a nice touch. I can't see the poll but either of the options you gave sound interesting 😊

[@lynettemclean5215]

Love your pronunciation of skeins. In Ireland we say “ skeeens”. 😂

[@lynettemclean5215]

Ah haaa. I see you are UK. So now I have to congratulate you on getting the e and i . I think we must just be lazy here 😂😂😂

[@hstahlbrandt]

Amazing episode! I had a sip of water, liked, did the stretching at the end (loved that!), but I cannot choose between booka ans stationary! Those are my hobbies too! Maaaybe I lean towards stationary because I feel it’s a little less frequent on YT? Can’t wait to hear about paper, fountain pens and inks! Maybe also storage of the fountain pens? I also love all the knits! Will definitely apply for the cowl test knit! Spincycle yarns are amazing, and I also LOVE that cream on top colorway! I have a tessellated pullover on my needles (with the castaway colorway), I need ti pick it up again! (Right after my current test knit with Lotta at Elk market yarn). Can’t wait, want to knit all the things!

[@rylomom]

Your cardigan is spectacular! I'd love to hear about your journaling suppliies...I'm fascinated by fountain pens and journals

[@katieanncarochi3723]

I love the Bosca cowl!!!

[@geraldine1997]

Wonderful episode, looking forward to the Bosca cowl being released. Watching this while knitting my Utility Shawl, it's a really enjoyable knit.

[@dortefranck6091]

I vote for books 😃 and what a nice show of garments and yarn. Some day a Tessulate must be made, it looks so good.

[@cathyannpaape3506]

Journaling! nice to see you again. lovely cardigan

[@kyraboisseree3424]

I love how the cardigan is coming along! I think it would look great with navy buttons. I’d also love to hear about what you’ve been reading!

[@jacquipiper4641]

Good podcast as usual, definitely books and then journaling. Your BOS a cowls are beautiful. 😊

[@brigettebell5814]

Again love your videos! Great cowls! I would love to see a journaling video. I love that too. Thanks again for a great video!

[@testingtesting-yu5gd]

Love your design!! I look forward to it's release. Wish I could test knit but my time is swamped. Your knitting is incredibly inspirational!

[@lisarussell9333]

Love the episode. Every now and then youll show us your new yarn and It matches the palatte of the piainting behind you.

[@SuzKnits]

Your Bosca Cowl looks great, love your short version.

[@kathleentanti4387]

Your cowl pattern is great love it. I’m also really keen on the red Spincycle yarn. I’ve never treated myself to any as it seems so dear. Copenhagen is on my “I must visit “ list. Books next episode please. Keep on knitting and being you ❤

[@ainasjokvist4648]

Omg that cardigan it looks so amazing. About that buttonhole you can stretch a hole in the knitting and seem (quilting stitch) along the hole with sewing thread. I was thinking brown grandpa cardigan buttons. For the next content i vote for journaling. Thanks for another great podcast. 😀

[@almutbonner4031]

It was great to see your makings again. I'm a fan of journalling and keep a knitting/crochet journal myself.

[@purpleunicorn164]

Journals and pens for sure!!!

[@mindykannon4650]

I so want to test knit that cowl. Already following you on Insta and just signed up for your newsletter….Love it!

[@joandloughy5210]

Another great episode Jonathan such beautiful knits! We were in Santa Fe 2 years ago and stopped by Hacer. So fun to hear you were there as well. You need to go to Taos if you get the chance. The most authentic arts community and spectacular landscapes

[@roslynyeomans5544]

Absolutely books (my two passions: reading and knitting).

[@betsyjames1520]

The colors of your cowl are in the painting on your wall

[@scottm988]

G'day from Australia, Jonathan. Loved this episode, the colour combo of the Tessellated cardigan is spectacular, well done! I recommend Navy Blue buttons! I'd love to hear about what you've been reading in the next episode. Enjoy your weekend.

[@ryciaraluna1026]

both journaling and reading

[@dnordfors5845]

I just cast on Andrea's new pattern, Night & Day Cowl, and started my project page this morning with a note that I needed a "palate cleanser" after finishing a sweater earlier in the week. 🤣 Almost half way through and really enjoying it. Would be interested to see what color you would pair with the Spincycle from Michigan. Books please.

[@Nelsonknitter]

Hi Jonathan, the Spin Cycle “cream on top” colourway looks very similar to your beautiful painting behind you. Gorgeous colours!

[@BooksnBeers]

Reading update and journaling, by this order ;)

[@helentkalcic4417]

Hey Jonathan, PetiteKnit has a video for after thought button hole, check it out for your cardigan, which is stunning!

[@Sache_mit_Haken]

As a longtime Hobonichi user myself I would be very interested in how you use yours! But also books … who isn’t interested in books? 😊

[@anneclarkson8779]

Hi Jonathan, another great episode! Please please can we have your sweater pattern early next year, i my sons birthday is at the beginning of April and I'm not the fastest finisher! 🏇

[@newe4me]

Hello don’t know if you’ll see this but..wondering if / When you may be releasing the pattern for the sweater you designed and were wearing a few episodes back….desperately want to knit it,,,any info? Thank you,,, truly enjoy your podcast,, sincerely, wayne

[@PoppinsPlans]

Goog Morning Jonathan, I am coming to you from Canada. I loved your podcast and the lovely cowls you've designed. I would be interested in test knitting the Bosca Cowl for my son. Please let me know if that would be possible? Have a wonderful day and keep designing!🙂

[@guineverecassidy4855]

Gollies I want to hear about both the reading and the journaling.

[@chris112233ish]

When you travel to & from the US, did you have metal needles…& did they survive in your possession?

[@dawndobbins9398]

Books please!

[@dorothysalter8265]

Journals please😊

[@marilynhunley2791]

I'm really interested in your reading list Jonathan. A great suggestion. I don't know when you have time to read. I read a lot and it takes away from my knitting time. Do you read while you knit? 😱😱

[@glagolik]

We don’t have autumn in the uk, we go straight to winter. Sorry. There is no winter here, all you have is autumn. Winter is snow heaps higher than you and -15 and snow staying till mid-April. Everything else is autumn!

[@geowhaley]

I’m not sure if you changed anything, but I’ve gotten 5 or 6 ads in the first 40 minutes and that’s a lot more than usual. Love the content, but gonna have to pass in the future if there are so many ads.

[@jimmydoesknitting]

Busy boy. The knits are looking good. Real talk though... you need to invest in a better interchangeable set. Those Addi's are not the one. I have a set. Never use it. I know you're a bougie knitter. Treat yourself.

[@knittysixx5106]

For goodness ’ sake, block your sleeve!!
