[@casuarinagirl8067]

Fun as always Ira, what a good wife and sister you are! Eight wips would make me scratch, I can’t imagine having three. Your blanket is so good, I can see why it’s addictive. OMG your cross stitch is amazing 🤩 My old lady eyes are like oh hell no!! So good - I would be like look at this how good am I? 🤭😂💪🏻 Thanks for sharing, Karen 🥰

Ira! So nice to hear from you again! I'm slavering in jealousy over the contrast colour to your sweetshop blanket - This podcast made me think that my acquisition of a shit ton of acrylic tweed worsted yarn must have been because of you. It looks so good with all the colours you've chosen! I can't wait to see it done. You're definitely having a blue moment, and you know what I'm here for it, your projects look amazing. Also I had a laugh when you said that the washing was future Ira's problem - I can't help but think I bet present Ira wants to strangle past Ira at times. Good to hear from you, see you soon!

Your cross stitches are amazing!!! 👏🙌👏🙌 you’re inspiring me to get back to mine…

[@annikak.837]

Tapering sweaters downwards really works! I have knitted three sweaters for my husband and because of the shoulder width it is necessary to decrease on the sides since he likes a bit more fitted than oversized sweater. And your navy cabled t-shirt looks so pretty!

Your cross stitch is incredible. Looks perfect now that you’ve framed it and once backed will be beautiful when it’s on a wall.

[@kukieknits]

Your sweet shop blanket looks great! I've been knitting with a lot of blue as well. I love The Starry Night painting.

[@kukieknits]

Thanks so much! Fingers crossed I manage to finish the Starry night this year!

I am working with the same yarn as you at the moment 😊 I am crocheting a summer top with the Grey Wisp and Weekender Crew with the Woodlands River sand both yarns are so lovely to work with. Your cross stitch looks amazing well done 🤩 I have not done cross stitch for a long time maybe I should do a small project 🤔

[@kukieknits]

There's always room for more hobbies right! Excited to see your FOs in our twin yarns.

[@SuzKnits]

I agree with you about the grey wisp from BWM! I also didn't check the colour card and was expecting grey.

[@kukieknits]

Bahahha the grey wisp got us! Thanks for watching 🙂

[@theknityorker]

Thanks again for testing! you are the best

[@cherylportsmouth5101]

Your sweet shop blanket is absolutely gorgeous. My friend and I are waiting for our order for the river sand colour from Bendigo. It is such a lovely colour. I plan to knit a sweater with mine.

[@kukieknits]

Thanks so much. I still don't know what to make with the Heartland colourway but I'm sure something nice that suits it will come out this year. What do you have in mind for the Riversand?

[@cherylportsmouth5101]

@@kukieknits I look forward to seeing what your pink heartlands becomes. I think I'd like to knit a sweater with cables.

[@joannemoseley8994]

Your cross stitch is amazing! It looks so good framed up. Are you a new stitcher or have you done smaller projects previously?

[@kukieknits]

Thanks so much Joanne! I've done very little cross stitch before that one, nothing worth framing. That was my first proper cross stitch project.
