“Do I really need to add another hobby?”😂 I’m right there with you. I already knit, crochet, and weave but a friend has renewed my interest in sewing. My entire house looks like one huge craft room😜

[@Lisamakes]

It’s crazy, but we love it, right? 🤣

[@gailmontgomery879]

Happy Birthday! Every birthday should be treated as a national holiday!

[@Lisamakes]

Agreed!

[@bonnie2632]

Happy Birthday, Lisa. I have loved your channel for the past four years. Interesting fun fact a friend shared with me when I turned 79. You are no longer in your 40's. You are in your 50th year, just as I was in my 80th year when I turned 79. Yes, a friend. 😂

[@Lisamakes]

Oh, great! I can practice for a year before I need to say it out loud. 🤣

[@jolynnwhite7946]

Very happy birthday belated in the expression, happy selling knitting and crafting crd

[@nancymorales2741]

Happy birthday, Lisa! Crochet is fast and fun especially for blankets. Thanks for sharing and hugs from Deep South Texas.

[@Lisamakes]

I’m sure I’m going to end up giving it a try. Lol!

[@ROCHELLEBOONSTRA]

Love the tee you are wearing just the way it is. Super cute! And I am also knitting the "Joni". Mine is a jeans blue colour.

[@bluegrassdreams2seams510]

Happy birthday, Lisa! Wow! You amaze me in all your knitting….all those beautiful yarns! I could almost feel each one as you described content. I’ve been knitting a lot too! I have three pairs of socks on the needles and still working on my husband’s sweater. His sweater was going to be a Christmas present but it’s been a complicated pattern! Socks are so easy to take somewhere so I seem to always have socks on needles.

[@Lisamakes]

Three pairs of socks! Amazing.

[@GoGirliabulous]

Happy (belated) birthday! I celebrate all month.

[@taraoutlaw5088]

Happy Belated birthday 🎊 🎉Lisa!!

[@glendavizecky7581]

Happy Birthday!! It's always fun to see your knits. Thank you for sharing.

[@Lisamakes]

Thanks, Glenda!

[@genabelgrave6929]

Happy Birthday 🎉I will be visiting Spain and Morroco in July so I made a note of the yarn shop you mentioned owned by Americans in Barcelona. I have recently found your podcast and I love it more so because it contains sewing. Just add crochet and you have the perfect trilogy 😊t

[@Lisamakes]

Thanks, Gena! Also add Miss Kits and Lalanalù to your list. ;)

[@JillMSmith]

Happy Birthday! I'm also knitting the Joni top--and I'm in the exact same spot! I put it aside for a few days to work on other things, but I'm ready to get back to it. I've also been dabbling in the "idea" of crochet. I love knitting and want to get better at it, but I'm feeling the lure of crochet too. So . . .

[@Lisamakes]

What a coincidence that we’re knitting the Joni at the same time. That lace panel is something I really have to sit down and concentrate on.

[@Annsews]

Happy Birthday Lisa!! :-D

[@hildaandrews8150]

Love your Friday Tee. It’s already on my list but Southern Ontario is so cold and dreary right now that I’m still starting wooly projects. Happy Birthday!

[@Lisamakes]

Sorry to hear the weather isn’t living up to spring knitting!

[@juliestone8302]

Happy Birthday to you I hope you had a wonderful day 🎉 thank you for posting your knitting update, you provided some excellent options to consider for summer knits 😊

[@Lisamakes]

Thank you! Glad you found some inspiration.

[@katrinalevin4064]

I enjoyed seeing your knitting and plans. Enjoy spring in Spain.

[@Lisamakes]

Thanks, Katrina!

[@pattyalexander5520]

HAPPY BLATED BIRTHDAY !!!😀

[@casuarinagirl8067]

Happy birthday 🎂🎉 fab episode with great info. Love your two FOs and the Sari test knit 💕

[@Lisamakes]

Thank you! 🥰

[@ppuyle1]

Great summer ideas! Thank you for linking all the pattern in Ravelry….that works great! 😊

[@Lisamakes]

Oh, good! I’m glad.

[@rycrafty]

I'm currently in Toronto and jealous of your warm weather! Although I think we're almost into the nicer weather here 😄 The swimsuit-specific yarn is so interesting! I think I need to find some, even just to feel it!

[@Lisamakes]

Oh dear- I’m sure it will warm up soon. May always starts a little cool, doesn’t it?

[@dale4032]

i knit and crochet and love them both... I'm working on a crochet Seashore tank top.."Cool Crochet for Warm Days": from Knits 'N Knots its balancing my sewing is the challenge. Oh what a girl should do? EVERYTHING!

[@Lisamakes]

Yes- everything! Lol

[@scribe6430]

Happy belated birthday!

[@rosalbab870]

Hi Lisa. Happy birthday 🎊 I’m turning 49 in October! I loved everything! I hope your birthday was fun! Take care Rosy

[@Lisamakes]

Thanks, Rosy! I can report that 49 is great. ;)

[@lois-marietodd1502]

Have a great day

[@rebecca-72]

Gorgeous, gorgeous tops!❤❤

[@Lisamakes]

Thanks!

[@scientificexplorergirl3374]

Happy Birthday!!!

[@Lisamakes]

Thank you!

[@aninehartog3950]

Happy Birthday

[@cozymeadowknits]

Hi Lisa! I love love love Your Friday Tee and Halter top! Oh and all your Birthday yarn! 💖 I'm totally all about summer knitting right now and trying to knit faster so that I can have them all by the summer! (as you know, summer in Atlantic Canada go by way too fast lol). Congrats on 25K! That's amazing and well deserved! Cheers! 🥰🧶

[@Lisamakes]

Thank you, Sophie! Yes, the first summer I spent in PEI was awful. Lol. The second one was much better. It’s a bit hit or miss! Get knitting! 🤣

[@yudypelle5249]

Happy Birthday...

[@Lisamakes]

Thank you!

[@janedrolet2807]

Sure…learn to crochet! I used to do both and I found crochet just easier to pick up and put down. In the early '70's my sister crocheted each of us bikinis. Out of PHENTEX…..haha. We were both teenagers, she was in college and I was in high school. They were tiny and cute…my poor father had fits, but mom let us wear them.

[@Lisamakes]

Phentex for a bikini? Eeek! Sounds scratchy. Lol

[@saraw8503]

My birthday is Sept. 2 and it occasionally falls on Labor Day.

[@Lisamakes]

So you know what I mean! :)

[@CounselorSue]

Happy Birthday…. I remember turning 49 and 50… 50’s were some of the greatest years, very freeing. 60’s are even better. I’ll be 69 this August. Looking forward to seeing what the 70’s will bring. I started a KZbin channel and it’s a slow go in terms of subscribers. My channel is a marrying of knitting and psychology (I’m a retired counsellor). Any tips on how to grow my channel. (CounselorSue - Creativity & Living Life). I live in Orangeville about an hour north of Toronto. I think one time you mentioned living in Toronto, or being from there… not sure.

[@Lisamakes]

Yes! I’m from Toronto. Congrats on your channel. Have a look at videos by Sunny Lenarduzzi for KZbin tips!

[@CounselorSue]

Thank you for the tip, referral idea, to Sunny Lenarduzzi. Very interesting. I had not thought of my KZbin channel as a business but Sunny’s videos cause me to rethink my goals and intentions. thanks again

[@Lisamakes]

I’m glad! I followed her advice a lot when I was starting out.

[@jolynnwhite7946]

👍😍🥰👗

[@joannemoseley8994]

Oh do learn to crochet! It will add so many options for you. It is “knit adjacent”…not REALLY adding another hobby. You can use your leftover yarns in lots of neat ways with crochet. Happy birthday!

[@Lisamakes]

Good points! Thank you for enabling me. 😅
