Knitting Podcast Ep. 6: Vacation knitting & Japanese yarn haul

[@AKnitterObsessed]

Hey guys, I realized too late that I forgot to add the information about the yarn store into the video as promised. I am so sorry about that, but it was called Masuzakiya and their English Instagram page can be found here: instagram.com/masuzakiya.global?igsh=MWQ1ZGUxMzBkMA== They have an option to ship internationally, so check them out if you want to pick up any cool Japanese yarns and I highly recommend a visit if you're ever in Osaka!

Great podcast episode! I’m still smiling at your comment “ our hobbies are next door to each other”.😅 Checking out yarn shops in other countries is a “must do” when you have that opportunity. It was on my list when we traveled to France & Italy. ❤️

Your cardigan reminds me of Monet’s Water lilies. Lovely!

[@AKnitterObsessed]

This comment made my day! I totally see it now and it’s making me love this project even more!

The autumn league pullover would be beautiful in that yarn and I think it has the features you are looking for in a sweatshirt type of sweater.

[@annehuntley2318]

In case your yarn is between worsted and bulky, be sure to also look at TOW Winter League Pullover also as it's written for bulky weight yarn.

[@AKnitterObsessed]

I agree! I actually have the Winter League Pullover on my shortlist for project ideas for the Noro yarn. It’s just such a cute and cozy looking pattern

[@kimplumer2122]

I love your podcast, your joy and smile and your projects.

[@AKnitterObsessed]

Thank you so much!! This comment seriously made my day!

[@jomeurer9444]

Oh my gosh!!!!! Amazing yarn! Thanks for sharing your acquisitions! ❤

[@AKnitterObsessed]

Thanks! I love talking about yarn so I’m always happy to share 😁

[@dsherrill2988]

Hi you got some very pretty yarn, idk which I like most! I had lost one of my cords for my interchangeables and then it occurred to me to check my notebook to see what projects I had laying around and I was able to figure out where it was. Good luck on your hunt and I hope you find your needles 😊

[@MicheleBasso-bk1qg]

Hey Bonnie, thank you for helping Brigitte pick out my yarn. I do love it! Also, I would recommend the Sunday Morning Shawl pattern. I don’t recall who e designer is, but you can find the pattern on Ravelry if you want to check it out.

[@AKnitterObsessed]

I’m glad you love it! The Sunday Morning Shawl is actually already on my short list of options for that yarn so I guess great minds think alike 😊 I feel like the simple details on it will look really nice with the colors my yarn has. What are you planning to do with your yarn from Brigitte?

[@katherinecombs8754]

Love the new yarns!

[@dorothyrainey1141]

Oh, I just love Noro yarn but have yet to knit with it. That is on my wish list for sure. I'm sure you'll find those needles someday! Your Knus Light is beautiful.

[@AKnitterObsessed]

I’ve been admiring Noro from afar for a while now so I figured it was time to go for it 😁 thank you so much for the kind words!

[@BostonMelG]

Now I want to shop for yarn around the world!!! 😂

[@AKnitterObsessed]

I highly recommend it!

[@amandakedaigle6895]

Your inspiring me to explore mohair more 😊 glad Japan was a great trip!

[@AKnitterObsessed]

I’ve really come to love mohair so that’s exciting! It is such a fun way to play with color and texture in your projects.

[@alicezamora7308]

I love the second yarn you brought back, the one you got 10 of (??). I’m currently knitting an Emotional Support Chicken; I’ll be making two more for friends.

[@AKnitterObsessed]

Oh fun! I haven’t knit an emotional support chicken yet but I feel like it’s just a matter of time
