Hi Natalie, love the scrappy knitted pants. I think it’s beautiful. I am tempted to cast one on. My problem is too many WIPS gives me anxiety. The beard is very nice and you wear it well. Your husband has a very good substitute for the real thing. Happy making!

Hello friend! Thank you for your kind words as usual! I know what you mean with regards to too many wips. You could force yourself to adopt a “one in, one out” rule. Finish a wip and then cast on the pants? I love them, they are really warm and cosy but I think I’m going to have to convert them to a slimmer leg for them to be truly wearable 😅

omg your pants came out excellent! love the bellbottom shape! oh, excellent beard!! love it! thats an interesting challenge with the moquette pattern... Im not that knowledgeable but I think it looks like you are on the right track, making the strips and sewing them together...Im interested if other viewers have a way to do it....I do enjoy your podcasts Natalie, and your unique creativity! thank you so much for making them for us!

Aww thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words! I’m just putting stuff out there that I enjoy making so to have anyone watch, let alone enjoy is a blessing I am very grateful for! Last night I started to steek the bell bottoms and they are so much more wearable now so v happy! Stay tuned! ❤️

Your shawl is beautiful. I enjoyed your stop-motion animations. Hopefully one day your husband will be laughing about the beard incident.

Thank you so much. Strangely, I think the shawl is one of my fave items I knitted last year! Which is odd because I didn’t really enjoy knitting it but it’s so cosy, I get a lot of wear out of it! I highly recommend the pattern! And as for the beard…yeah my husband can laugh about it now…but he says he wont let me anywhere near the clippers any time soon! 😆
