knitting my dream pinterest inspired sweater with NO PATTERN as a beginner ✨ it took only 3 days!

[@paulettegarcia3266]

I just found you on KZbin. I think you are so animated and hilarious. I am so impressed with you working without a pattern. I am 77 years old, I can knit and crochet and I have never not used a pattern. I am afraid I would screw it up! But I have been inspired by you to try and create something. You are a delight to watch.

[@louettesommers8594]

I’m 71 and have been a lifetime knitter/crocheter. I just found this darling woman yesterday. I want try one of her sweaters. 💜

[@nikki123abc]

I’m 12 years old I love to crochet! I also find Jenna super fun to watch!

[@ryta7501]

i’m 17 and your comments made me smile 💞

[@erinx9344]

I'm 23 and I've recently got into knitting after being a crochet-er for a couple years !! Great to see how diverse this community is :)

[@noodle-]

I guess everyone is saying their age- I'm 10 and I love crocheting, knitting, and sewing! Everytime I don't use a pattern I screw up 😅so I always look for a pattern.

[@JenPolishAholic]

I crochet everyday, usually blankets, and my cats tend to be obsessed with sitting on my projects while I try to do them. So helpful lol

[@marymoran1015]

My pet bunny likes to play with my yarn ball/ skein and working yarn so that I’ll pay attention to him!

[@trahie1750]

@@marymoran1015 lol cute

[@kylown]

i like to throw my yarn across the room to watch my cat play with it and not have to pull it all the time :) so cute!

[@catsandcrochet]

My cat loves sitting on my projects too lol she's the best helper

[@YpsilonLinus]

Pets always help as good as they can xD🤣

[@smallfootprint2961]

I'm 84 and am super impressed with you Jenna. I have knitted, and crocheted off and on. You have encouraged me to try again. Great work, Jenna.

[@daniv894]

I just learned to knit after having crocheted for years I think continental knitting is so much easier and quicker for me. The working yarn is held in the same hand as it is when crocheting.

[@idk-ji5og]

Same same, I'm more used to it and also it just takes less motions. Instead of having to move my right hand so suddenly I can just swiftly move the yarn along with my left hand. I feel like it's more efficient in general and even people who only knit should try it!

[@emiliatolvanen1179]

I didn't even know that there were other ways to knit because continental knitting is the technique that I was taught in school and it seems so much quicker (haven't tried anything else tho)

[@bgummeson]

This is a very clear demonstration of intarsia. Well done! I love my Knitter’s Pride Ginger needles (the smaller ones you used on the ribbing). The points and smoothness work for almost every yarn.

[@FuzzyStripetail]

The festiveness of Jenna getting a Christmas tree was quickly dampened when she punished that new yarn basket she just bought by putting it in the corner.

[@caleighdunivan]

I just love how your videos don’t seem like tutorials. Just feels like we’re just hanging out or your vlogging

[@alexasunshine83]

ahhhhh it turned out AMAZING!!!! your TALENT!!!!!

[@nicoleballesteros3486]

Almost 2AM here in the Philippines and still binge watching your videos since the other day since it is currently our academic break. 💞 Your videos really make me forget about all the stress and pressure that the online learning is giving me. Thank you for making us happy💖

[@anitakimbell3045]

Yay, Dear Jenna, Im so happy I found you and your fur babies Jack and Benson on the Tube.... Im usually following XO Macenna and Drew for their amazing DIY projects. I came across you by sheer accident and just love your tutorials. I love how you keep it real, wee wee real !!! I am a beginner and so im just watching your stuff whilst practicing stitches and making my first beanie. Im totally obsessed with your flower dress, bet thats the only one like it !!! I'd just like to say that since ive been binging your tutorials my mental health has improved so much. Thank you Friend xxxx keep em coming ill be taking notes and watching out for your hilarious faux pars !!!! Love from Annie in Spain

[@CloTricots]

It's really great to see you improve from the first video to this one. I love that you aren't scared to try techniques and just go with it. As a pro knitter here are a few things I would try: 1- knit your sleeves in the round now that you have circular needles. It's so much faster and you can try them on as you go. 2- most knitters never tie knots with their ends, just weave the ends in at the end (which you already have to do) and it will close de gap. Hope that helps!

[@brittanykamalie1075]

The amount of talent this beautiful woman has...its amazing

[@bobbid9168]

You did freaking amazing. All the things you learned and accomplished in making this checkered sweater. It really is cute

[@peachy__pg]

i love how this turned out, jenna! can’t wait to see what you make next

[@sassypenguinsknits]

Your next step should be learning how to knit in the round, game changing, you're gonna love it, trust me on this one 😉 AND THE SWEATER TURNED OUT AMAZING 😍😍😍😍

[@awkwardsity]

This is what I wanted to say. She did a great job but watching her use circulars and not knit circular was stressing me out. So much unnecessary purling!

[@joleneblake7807]

I want to learn to knit again and knitting in the round is a foreign idea it's so scary to me

[@heidih3048]

I've been knitting for about 10 years, and have only done sweaters in the round until recently. Upon trying knitting a sweater in pieces and seaming, I have found that the sweater lays and drapes better over the shoulders than with the many patterns by many knitwear designers for in-the-round sweaters-- With seamed sweaters, I seem to have no more problems with strange fit around shoulders, upper chest and underarms-- no need for alterations to every sweater pattern to get these areas to fit less awkwardly!

[@donnaterryhalleran2367]

Is that your new apt?😮

[@megabrainwaves]

the unbothered energy at 19:16 is such a mood😭❤️

[@nossrednAailuJ]

I love watching you knit. I have never knitted in my entire life. But I kinda want to start now. But I have zero money to buy the stuff you need😔 so I am gonna keep watching you to fulfill my craving lol

[@JeddieMPB]

making some merino wool scarves for friends and family for christmas now that you’ve motivated me to learn to knit!! love you lady

[@lindsaysknitdrinkrepeat]

You have easily become on of my favorite knitters on KZbin. ♥️ 🧶

An inspired sweater is so stunning, Jenna!🌸🌸❤️❤️

I love the green sleeves, your crochet kitting videos are inspiring 🌷

you are so talented ive never seen a better crafter then you god has given us angel from heaven

18:05 dont worry, in my country whenever ber months starts we already have decorations and christmas songs playing anywhere

[@cintiapollock2486]

I usually do a top down sweater in the round so this was interesting love your color choice 😊

[@saraw8503]

I am a knitter and would not think about attempting a sweater without a pattern. I’m such a chicken. Bravo! Way to go.

[@cyndiisme4185]

I call my cat Velcro because she is always stuck to me and I cherish it! 😻 My last cat was like her but I would get frustrated, after he passed I missed the constant love immensely!

[@janiefoglewohlerspantryand2102]

Nice job. Just the tip when I do my knitting I always drag the next color along to the next block and then you don't have strings hanging down. I hope that makes sense

[@amandaclover9191]

Your sweater turned out lovely! I hope you wear it a lot 💖

[@sophieisastar]

I am in love with this sweater! Thank you for bringing my favorite colors to the table

[@karenhill9255]

Jenna! 🙂 That looks really good, I love it. ❤️ Okay, I dont know if someone else has mentioned it but the neck style is called a crew neck. In the UK its commonly called the neckband and the bottom of the sleeves are the cuff. Im really impressed how good it looks and how close the green colour match is on the sleeves.🙂 I have definitely learned something from your tutorial. The invisible stitching is a fab idea 💡 👌 When you want to tie off on the wrong side, I find it quicker with a crochet hook and less fiddley to do. Your videos always make me smile and cheer me up! Your recent crocheted bikini looked so cool. Well done! Looking forward to seeing more from you. xxx🥰🙂🥰

[@vivienlee610]

I LOOOVE that top! You're so uplifting as well, all of your videos are fun & educational.

[@ShayGlizzy-nj7hg]

I came across this video & your first sweater and it honestly inspired me. Your personality and just going with the flow✨ I’m 26 and knit only hats and blankets because I’m scared but this inspired me to get out of my comfort zone and attempt keep it up girl lots of love from nyc 🤞🏾

[@mariam3412]

it turned out so good and i can see your progress too definitely recreating it

[@creamarey]

I’m currently crocheting a cardigan for my shop and your video came just in time ! I love love love your work 🥺💕

[@julianalbruno]

this came out great! you could make a similar sweater from the bottom up, in the round, then you wouldnt have to do as much sewing. love the colors♥️

[@kn_editsshorts]

I am so surprised to finally find someone who doesn’t care about being insecure to talk about periods. Everyone should take notes.😂

[@wildlyartisticliving515]

I love your videos! I love that this is your learning process. I have also crocheted many years and just discovered I love knitting! Still basic learning, but these sweaters you make give me hope of myself learning as well. Thank you for sharing your process and learning as you go. God bless.

[@ashlynshaffer4281]

your drawing is so amazing and you are so talented! I love your videos! Your are so funny and amazing at everything and always make me smile!!

[@ipshapanda9059]

I'm just so excited every time your video comes up!!!!❤❤❤🦋 Tightest hugs to youuu! You're the best. ❤🦋🧚‍♀️💜💗

[@absbsbrkdndjrb]

As a knitter, you need to learn how to join in the round. It is so easy and it makes all of the projects so much easier. For starters, you could do this whole project seamless and purl-less (other than the ribbing). When you picked up for the neckband it would just perfectly become a circle, no seaming necessary. It will make your knitting experience so much better. Also, my tip for sleeves is to seam the front to the back, both along the shoulders and the sides, and then pick up for the sleeves (like you did with the neck) and knit them down (of course in the round). If any of this confuses you I really recommend following a pattern. There are so many free ones on ravelry that will tell you everything to do to make the process smoother. The sweater is great without a pattern, but honestly, I recommend it. It will save you from experiencing all the ways something can go wrong. One note- with intarsia (the process of having large blocks of color, rather than traditional stranded colorwork) will not work well in the round. But other than that, everything is easier in the round.

[@createdbycaroline]

It came out so pretty! I love your crocheting and knitting videos, I always work on my projects while I watch them 💕

[@Midnightpigeon666]

I love this jumper so much! 💚 I enjoying your little artist drawing too 😂 you have the best style girl!! Im definitely going to make one of these for myself.

[@brendaclark5216]

Nice job Jenna, looks fantastic. Color choice for cuffs and collar worked out great. 🤗

[@moonlightpaw5868]

Such a cute sweater. I want to make one too but the problem I have with knitting is it feels like forever and so does sewing everything up together. I just don't have patience. I like how you kept it simple.

[@kskc1234]

Big Applause from Hanna in New Orleans! It looks adorable!
