they put pavement over a swamp and now i live here 😂

[@jacqueismaking]

This also killed me lololol

[@moonbasket]

Omg. I am obsessed with the yarn combo you're doing for the vacation vest! I want some rainbow thread tweed. I love it. Also, hapoy pride! 🌈

[@lauriejarboe6087]

As a Frederick MD girl I'm happy to have fellow sweater sweaters in the "swamp". You look amazing in the lilac Lento

[@knitsbymandy]

Love Frederick! That is where my fiance is from :) fellow swampers unite lol

[@selfishknitter]

I love your sense of humor as much as your knitting! 😂 The Lento was such a good flip and I really really need to make one. But first, color decision paralysis.

[@jessdmccreary]

I'm so excited you're back with a video! Your humor kills me and I love your projects. Hazel Knits from Seattle has the most gorgeous mini's and Disco Fibers from Portland, Oregon has a mastery monthly mini club they just started!

[@tocapey9966]

I like your mini yarn shopping. I plan on making the same blanket for a baby. I’m inspired by your yarn color choices.

[@KnitsByNayla]

Baby Cat Yarns has great palettes. Might be fun if you decide you need more yarn before starting the blanket. She’s great at explaining color theory to her base as well.

[@kasiamichalec2305]

I am working with Cotlin yarn now as well. I am impressed of how soft it feels when I knit with it, and it gives a smooth stitch definition. I am making a Talulah top.

[@AnItalianKnitter]

I have just finished Funny Story and loved it! Also, I have an in-progress Sweet Shop Blanket that I plan to pick up after the summer and finish up before Christmas hopefully!

[@luvLins]

Do these places exist?? Yes girl, she’s writing about Traverse City!! If you ever get the change go visit!! They have a cherry festival. Summertime in Michigan is elite! Love love love all the minis. The greens in that set are two of my favorite colors. It’s so funny bc I find myself knitting more fall/winter garments in the summer and then I daydream about all of the summer knits I can make (and usually do make) in the winter. I’m sitting here with a whole sweater and I’m also wishing I didn’t have to knit sleeves. Maybe this year I will actually knit a summer garment in the summer? 🤔

[@lisab.3116]

Mandy, love the color you chose to dye your tank in. Looks great on you.

[@knitsbymandy]

thank you so much! i'm very happy with it :)

[@alicemarchetti4340]

Your projects are so beautiful! and I can't wait to see the blanket you'll make with all those cute minis, it's gonna be an amazing one😍

[@JennyLovell]

Bro same, I'm so excited for love island & summer knits

[@thelefthandedreader6632]

Mandy, thanks for mentioning the Moon and Yarn Craft room! I’m in Pgh and didn’t know about it! Yay!

[@knitsbymandy]

It just opened last year in the north hills, definitely worth a visit!

[@CharlotteGys]

Omg I just thought about your channel today, wondering if you were still posting... and here you are. Happy to see it 😊

[@knitsbymandy]

I've been a bit slower since starting a certificate program this year! Hoping to be posting more regularly when I finish in August:)

Heyyyyyy!❤❤

[@comfycozytoo]

This is still a bit of a hike from you but may not feel like it as you just shoot down US 50. But Knit & Pieces (Annapolis) carries Magpie Fibers yarn.

[@knitsbymandy]

I haven't been to annapolis in ages, this could be an good excuse to go!
