Copied over from my recent Community Tab post: So y’all, real quick: The “baby blanket” I share with you in the latest podcast episode is really intended to be a nursing lap blanket and I never really thought to mention that. I tend to refer to any blanket gifted to an expecting mother as a ‘baby blanket’. But don’t worry. This will be gifted as a nursing lap blanket and not a baby toe catcher. ❤️

[@catherinecunningham7126]

This may sound selfish but I love the nights when my husband plays video games, he gets lost in it and I get to knit or crochet all night and he’s way less needy! 😂

[@MelissaK133]

Same! Expect I want to play video games as well 😅

[@reeinvented914]

Same dynamic with me and my partner! I knit or crochet, he plays games. Sometimes I join in!

[@janao.9118]

Nobody works faster, than a knitter with a babyshower on the weekend 😆

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Damn right!

[@jonellesandel1066]

“Knitting machines are people too” is your next t-shirt 😂🎉

[@littlesammyf7380]

I’d buy it!

[@judyperodeau4945]

Omgosh! I loved the music with the kid ramble! Precious!!! 😆🤩😂 love your show

[@stitchesandstarlight]

The marled hat bit was probably my favorite few minutes of KZbin in a long time. You’re such a joy, Tayler.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Listen, Tazhi, word salad is sometimes on the menu and a girl can’t help but serve it up fresh. 😎😅 And thank you. 😘😘

[@WildeBookGarden]

Somehow I never thought of there being people today whose job title is actually "shepherdess"?? I love that so much I've gotten behind on videos so I'm doing a little catch-up while I finished my first sweater! wearing it now 🥰

[@marymack1]

I recently found the joys of busting stash yarn holding two yarns together on the knitting machine...feeling so productive! And, the results are so surprising and gorgeous!

[@ginettevallieres604]

After seeing that photo of the Italian chocolate chip gelato, all I kept thinking was “cookies & cream”!! It’s always a pleasure to see what you’re working on!

[@eleanoreadams]

As a life-long hand knitter, I also own 4 knitting machines. They are very fun! If I need fast gifts and stash busting, I pull them out. Hats, leg warmers, fast socks (i will hand knit in cut-in after thought heels and toes. If you get a sock machine knitter, cut in heels is a total fun thing. Who doesnt love a day cranking out socks!)

[@pixiebellshop]

Of course I’m watching! ❤ Your cowl came out awesome. The easiest way to make a seamless tube is to cast on to the machine with waste yarn, crank your tube, then pick up your live stitches onto a circular needle, leave a long long tail for seaming. Then slip another circular needle into your starting row and pull out the waste yarn. Marry the open circles and Kitchener all the way around. It takes a bit of time, but worth it in the end.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you Diane!! I always learn new things from you here in the comments. Always good to see you. ❤️

[@SweeTart77kkibble]

Yay for you! Thanks so much for highlighting this “slow breed” movement. I am so over the speckled fingering (stash yes, buying no) and these heritage breeds have brought me so much joy. More this! Will be sharing too. Again, yay for you!

[@helenmulcahy1399]

Love those colors of new line of yarn ❤️🧶

[@mdbenoit]

Hi Tayler, straciatella is also a type of egg-drop soup, so you might want to call your sweater straciatella gelato. 😁

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Hi everyone! Thank you for stopping by to watch the podcast. As always, join in on the conversation here in the comments section. Share your thoughts, ideas, introduce yourself if you're new here (or have never done it), or just drop me line. I love reading your comments more than you know. Also, today I am wearing a store-bought sweater. I did not knit this. 👍 #knittingpodcast #knitting #woolneedleshands

[@amydbwinters]

Why not just 'chocolate chip blizzard' for the Franken-sweater??

[@mizzkain]

Cookies and cream?

[@chasingthelook]

"knitting machines are people, too!" had me laughing. new merch slogan? 😄 I've also had the Moonwake Cowl on my favorites list for a long time--it's gorgeous!

[@saimaasif8719]

#sendoff. Thank you for showing kindness to the community. Your videos have wealth of knowledge and helps us in finding moments of happiness in our lives.

[@lieslnew8247]

😂😂Tayler I think this is one of my fav vids of yours. I laughed and nodded and smiled the whole way through. You are such a hoot and I mean that in a really really good way. ❤❤

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you Liesl!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@holoinfinity4691]

The seam for the neck warmer isn't too bad, you can't see it if you were wearing it out. Yes, you will be seeing it the most and getting annoyed with it, but other people will hardly notice. That's what I think about when I seam my projects

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Totally. A very healthy way to look at it. Thank you! ❤️

[@RTsarahmmm]

Giada de Laurentis! I died! 😆

[@jhuntsman17]

Great way to start a gray Monday morning. You are like sunshine in a bottle. Love all your projects.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you so much Julie!

[@JordanLeigh]

The hand cranked knits off Sentro totally count, and purists who want to argue about it can fight me. There are so many people who love knitting projects but cannot do it because of things like arthritis, nerve pain, surgery recovery, who knows how many disabilities, etc, and the things people make on a Sentro machine are just as valid of an accomplishment. So there’s no shame in loving what you make with it. For real, anyone who wants to argue about that needs to sit down and wonder why their internalized ableism is such a big deal to them that they feel the need to tear someone else down for wanting or needing to use a knitting machine, instead of hurting other people’s feelings who were proud of being able to make something thanks to those machines. ♥️♥️♥️

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

💯❤️❤️

[@chelseabergman5009]

I missed the update again....🥴 One of these times I will remember the day of instead of a couple days before and then the day after. I used to knit and crochet while watching my husband play video games and I really enjoyed that. He typically only plays PC games now and the computer is in the home office so it doesn't work like it used to. In an effort to still be together we set up a little knitting corner in the office for me. I have my yarn storage there and a small comfy armchair.

[@anitabechtel5180]

i am so excited to see where the Sentro machine takes you next. Have you ever thought about getting a sock knitting machine that would "crank a tube"?

[@lavendercottagefibrearts]

love the name Stracciatella! it looks a bit like cookies and cream ice cream as well

[@elysssjoy]

I agree! I was going to comment cookies and cream as possible substitute!

[@artandstitchesbytl]

The colourwork swatch with the Tunis is absolutely stunning!! 😍

[@holoinfinity4691]

Just got my Arizona Tunis yarn today and I'm SO HAPPY. The pale blue color of Monsoon Break is so beautiful. I love soft colors like this one along with the deeper colors such as teal, royal purple, maroon, etc. So glad to be able to get such nice yarn while also supporting someone. THANK YOU TAYLER!

[@veradoling8580]

Loved your podcast. Great info on the Sentro knitter. I’ve heard of some people that have tried it. I picked up my needles about 4 years ago, after many years hiatus. Ive since retired and was fortunate enough to land a part time job at our LYS in Picton, Ontario. Suffice it to say that I don’t take home an income. But I get to play with all the luscious yarns! Our LYS, Rosehaven Yarn Shop is leaving for a fiber trip to South America in a few weeks…so I will be coming home with even more yarn…who needs to pack underwear! Love all your rambles and podcasts.

[@staceywhittle2245]

I love how the new jumper matches your sofa and cushion behind you!

[@paulmd2208]

You inspired me to get two Addi knitting machines: 22 and 46. I've hand-knit for over 20 years and enjoy that process immensely, but also am intrigued by projects you can do on the machines. Plus I think my two sons and wife will love using them! We tried knitting on pegs for a while but that didn't catch on so well - managing tension can be extremely tricky. You might consider adding a twist to your next neck warmer (a'la EZ's Moebius ring) to make it even more stylish!

[@debbieperea95]

Love the blanket 🧶👍🏻

[@donnakarwoski6074]

Fun episode Tayler! I knit baby afghans & donate them to a charity. One a month for 20 yrs or so. That throw is just the right size. It can be used longer as the baby grows. Beautiful!

[@safiyab4767]

You are always so upbeat and enthusiastic about what you do and it’s fun to watch and listen. Thank you for sharing your work with us, Tayler. Since you mentioned the ribbing of your sweater and the fact that you didn’t go down a needle size for it… I stopped doing that after I had knit one body hem with the same needle size as the sweater and really liked it.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you so much Safiya. This means a lot to me. And I’m also happy to hear that you liked the look of your hemline knit in the same needle size. I was curious if I would like it, but I think I’m going to. I think it fits the overall chunky nature of the sweater. ❤️❤️

[@lindseywhite3371]

I made that blanket for my mum-in-law for Christmas, the full size version took me a month, so you should be fine for the 18th. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, I love Mama in a Stitch!! I love to hear Mary Poppins referenced anywhere, so thank you for the pie crust promise :) Take care xx

[@pakedermsfavs9080]

I purchased the sentro to purposely use up yarns in my stash that I didn’t like anymore or was given to me . I made a bunch of hats and scarfs for a warming centre in my local city . I’m in Eastern Ontario Canada. Worked perfectly for that .

[@diannecarter1754]

I love the change. The first one almost looks “wrong side” next to it now.

[@maggie2sticks717]

Tayler, your neckwarmer is so cute. If that seam is bugging the heck out of you, knit a little band and put it around it like a hair band and it will cover it. Margaret over at Sheepisly Sharing on KZbin has a ton of knitting machine ideas. She also crochets and knits and is a super nice lady. I've been thinking of getting a knitting machine for hats and Felicia at Sweet Georgia had a great video on hers. It's a tool. It's still knitting and if people don't like it they can watch something else!!

[@FennelFiber]

anddd time to pull out my knitting machine !

[@MysticMarni]

Eff the Haters! I love my Sentro. I love my Sentro products!

[@efenwick8608]

First off, I busted out laughing within the 1st 30 seconds of watching this bc your tshirt was hilarious! Also - I can never seem to find the DPNs I’m looking for either! 😉 Second, I think the swap you made for your husbands color work sweater is definitely the right move, too. Can’t wait to see how it knits up! 👍

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

I’m so glad that you appreciate the shirt! Trying to find a full set of dpns is always an adventure. 😅 Thank you so much for watching!

[@nickiethesaint316]

This was my favorite episode ngl 😂😂😂

[@alkervah8028]

I love you mentioning Shave Em to Save Em! I found out about it recently from my sister who cares for a heritage breed at Zoo Atlanta and it is what's inspired me to learn to spin my own yarn! I definitely encourage anyone interested to look into the program!

[@judyfick2967]

Your swatch with your new yarn is beautiful

[@JustWriter]

The new sweater swatch looks AMAZING!

[@chrissy24-7]

Love your shirt, Tayler!! I'm SO excited about your new yarn line!! Stunning

[@JaneConnorEmbellisher]

Great video. I don’t own a round knitting machine but I think people who do would like to see a tutorial on your marling technique. The videos I have seen are for single yarns. Maybe do a pattern for your neck warmer for your shop. I like the Tunis yarn and the story behind it.

[@christinehoffman1825]

Everything is outrageously beautiful 😊😊😊

[@cynthiaburja3526]

Love the new yarn!! Can't wait to get my hands on some of it!!

[@jordynecastaneda8212]

I love your podcasts! Such a great little bite sized video that I can knit along to at the end of the day to wind down. I appreciate how you use a little bit of everything. A little acrylic, a little luxury yarn, a little something for everyone, wherever we're at. Such a joy to watch and listen to.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Well you’ve just made my night Jordyne. Thank you. I’m so glad you enjoy the videos. 🙏🙏❤️❤️

[@mikithompson745]

Another amazing video. So much inspiration. I’m about to start another pair of fire pit mitts. Can’t wait to try in a more rustic yarn.

[@laurelrobbins8673]

One of my greatest joys is sitting with knitters, talking about knitting, and sharing our love of this craft! Thank you!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

My pleasure Laurel. Thank you for watching!

[@aracelibarajas5254]

I’m working on a Winter Cuddler throw blanket as well! I love the color you’re using. I’m making a gray one 😊

[@valeriehowden471]

Thanks for the great idea about the life line then cutting out the portion. This would give me the motivation to complete the project and frog the unwanted portion at a separate time. I've had to frogback a difficult yarn and I get so upset with that part of the process that I wouldn't finish the project at all. Your new line of yarns looks amazing. Always curious to hear about the not-so-common. Must come from my garden and finding heirloom seeds.

[@deniseyoung3738]

I can't wait to get my hands on some of that new wool! And LOVE the new Tshirt, one is on its way to me!

[@BookCat18]

I'm so excited to check out the new yarn base and I will miss your Wednesday ramble, can't wait to see what the tip line has delivered :)

[@gaylecmiel8221]

Hi …just watched your podcast and sooo happy to learn about your newest yarn and the commitment to spin heritage breed wool! I sincerely hope you do well with this adventure! ❤️. Happy knitting, g

[@liziking306]

Another beautiful episode. I am going to have to try my hands at colorwork knitting. I've been way too afraid. But I have to start somewhere. Thanks for the inspiration. I can't wait to see the sweater for your hubby... and your Franken Sweater (aka Stracciatella)... LOL... I'll never get tired of you talking about your Franken Sweater. I'm learning so much from you. The new yarns are beautiful. Love the colors. Thank you, Tayler! Have a beautiful rest of the week... and we will see you soon. Take care! 🙂

[@maryhefty901]

I just finished the cuddler Afghan, used hue and me chunky wool blend (80% acrylic 20% wool) in the color arrowwood. Had never knitted a couple of those stitches so it was challenging but interesting to work on.

[@vysgiyi]

This was so timely! I really want to make a new colorwork sweater and was looking for special American wool for the Sheep Camp Sweater. And your new drop looks like It’ll be perfect!! ❤❤

[@juliekoss7038]

You were just great today! Made me smile the whole 30 min!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Oh gosh, thank you Julie. I’m so glad! ❤️❤️

[@Denise11312]

Hi Tayler- I love your neck warmer! As a knitter of 50 years, let me say - forget Kitchener! I cannot stand Kitchener - but LOVE the Finchley Graft. You use a needle, do it on the wrong side, it’s so easy and looks absolutely seamless when finished! Roxanne Richardson has a great video on KZbin for learning it!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Denise! Thank you! I’m off to learn more! 😘😘

[@mjennyt]

We beat up ourselves for less than perfect seams, but would accept that from a store bought cowl. Lovely work and don't beat yourself up!

[@sonjastickel3811]

Absolutely love your cowl! I have an idea for a variation: when you kitchener the tube together - twist one side 180 degrees for a moebius cowl. Andrea Mowry does this with her Montana Mountain cowl and other cowl pattern. Love it plain though as well, you are the queen of marl combos!

[@alicemarchetti4340]

Yay!! I'm so happy you liked the name Stracciatella so much! If you ask me it sounds like the perfect name for that sweater😂 and your pronunciation was pretty damn good! This little italian follower's really proud!💪and anyway, you know? It actually sounds really cool with the American accent too! I do like it😍🥰

[@woolhaze]

My Italian is incredibly rusty, but is the middle "cia" pronounced "chi-ah"? I thought it'd be "cha", like stra-cha-tel-la? Edit: okay yeah I checked Google translate, and it's pronouncing it with "cha" - which tbh sounds like a hell of a lot easier to say than how Tayler was doing it.

[@alicemarchetti4340]

@@woolhaze yeah, sorry you're right, to be 100% correct it is pronounced like "cha" without the sound "i" in it cause when we have a world with the double c and then "i" and "a" (for example), the sound of the "cc" sounds kinda like there’s already and "i" in it, and so we don't add another one. But yeah, I understand that italian can be a pretty confusing language expecially for English native speakers because they're such different languages so I truly appreciated the effort you both did! Wish you a good day :))

[@katibere1966]

The baby blanket is absolutely beautiful! Your friend is going to love it! I LOVE your neck warmer!! Great socks 🧦 for your dad! The second swatch for your husband’s sweater is AMAZING! Keep those colors!! The Tunis swatch is fantabulous!!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️

[@littlesammyf7380]

I think the grey throws off the contrast of the blue and mustard yarns, it’s almost like a bright white or a reddish or pickle green is needed 🤷🏼‍♀️ fab video, I’m enjoying your journey on the chocolate chip/frankensweater

[@judith6133]

Hello! The socks for your dad are so nice. Last time you showed them, you talked about the stitch count and the fit of them. If you want to try out, Anna Knitter is selling a knitting table for socks with stitch counts, needle sizes in 3 different yarn counts. In many shoe sizes. Love your projects.

[@andreahuss3156]

Thank you!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

My pleasure Andrea. Thank you for watching!❤

[@Kpup]

We are Paton's Kroy TAAT sock twins! I've got a pair going now (in Blue Ragg Stripes colorway) and I'm enjoying it so much as a waiting room project that I plan to cast on another pair as soon as I'm done!

[@caylarivera2804]

Hey just wanted to say thank you for suggesting the lions brand fisherman's wool! I love the stuff so much. I am currently crocheting a cardigan out of it and loving how rustic, yet squishy it's turning out. I got some of the natural cream color and did some dye experiments, and it has been a blast. Happy knitting to you ❤️

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

My pleasure Cayla! Soo glad you love it! Happy crocheting!

[@mariarague6082]

I am loving that tshirt you're wearing!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you! It’s in the merch shop!

[@mariemaheu1419]

Atlas Sweater. Hello, To choose the colors of a jacquard pattern, I have a trick that I learned. You need a strong contrasting color, that's your purple-blue, but the other two colors, mustard and gray, aren't contrasting enough and the pattern doesn't stand out. The trick is to take a black and white photo (saturation -100) of your three colors of yarn. You will notice in the photo that the mustard and the gray of the wool are almost identical (two grays are the same). On the other hand, if you match your mustard with an off-white or your gray with an off-white and take a black and white photo, the colors are not identical (two different grays). I hope this tip can help you when you are finally choosing your colors for the yoke.

[@rachelcorey5235]

I’m very new to finding the corner of KZbin- just want to say I’ve binged your channel and love it! You’ve i typically crochet, but I’m picking up my knitting needles again to give the fire pit mitts a go! Also the video quality is amazing. Im a huge new fan!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you so much Rachel!

[@jodiebanner6946]

Now I want a knitting machine..😀It would be great for all of those leftover yarns to make hats.

[@sandrarekker585]

wow, the colour swap made a huge difference.

[@crochetingaroundnewzealand]

To make adult beanies on the sentro you just do more rows. You might need to use a looser tension. Yes they do stretch after awhile so I wouldn't block stuff made on a sentro.

[@susanschwerdtfeger7310]

I think your new swatch and changing the color order is definitely the right direction, that is if you decide to keep them and not change the other two out. It will be great to see how it all turns out. Also, I loved your “child” bit and how you added the music! It gave me a good out loud chuckle! 🤭 As always it was lovely to watch your podcast. ❤

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you so much Susan! And I’m glad this gave you a chuckle. That’s always a good thing. ❤️❤️

[@graceyj7996]

Just found you here before the holidays and love your videos! Loveeeee your rambling…I go into workshopping mode with people too. I have only been a scarf and hat knitter and you inspired me to try vanilla socks and doing on 9 inch circulars with Patons Kroy. Next pair going to try Magic Loop too. Love the Frankenstein sweater.. how about the chocolate chip sweater? Thank you for sharing!

[@marymack1]

Mama in a Stitch has great crochet pattern called Faux Fur Coat. Fun to make!

[@lisagray6466]

I also recent,y bought a Sentro and found that the hats I made are too snug for an adult head so I’m glad you said something about it!

[@pixiebellshop]

I agree and the expensive Addi machine is even smaller.

[@elizabethwickes8672]

My 7yo's head is only 3/4" narrower than mine, and I am not a small person. So ages are complex! Another tool to ponder over: the Daruma Home Twister. You can use it as a regular winder (which is great) but it also has a mode where it will wind a cake but will add a bit of twist to very gently ply strands together, making the marled effect a bit more balanced an even when feeding into a knitting machine. Could also be awesome for when you're knitting two at a time with mohair held together, she says to herself glaring at those mittens down there.

[@marybethfisher9464]

I love green mountain spinnary. I was there a few weeks ago.

[@SarahJo]

I'm good with the Frankesweater being a big topic of conversation on the podcast lol it's such a fun project to hear about!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Oh good! Thank you Sarah!

[@carolinedubose5136]

Your hat and cowl look great!!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you Caroline!! ❤

[@wstyrsky]

I ordered that Paton yarn that you are knitting for your Dad. Comes today!

[@christinemccoy5237]

Happy Birthday wishes to your little guy!

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you Christine!

[@janetgillett7122]

Tayler, I love Chamomile tea as much as you and wanted to share a source for the best teas I’ve tasted. They’re from Duncan Mills Teas in CA. It is loose leaf but so worth the extra effort. Missed your last shop update but looking forward to trying some of that Arizona Tunis.

[@aliceboss3134]

stracciatella is actually the best name for it! and your pronunciation is fine :)

[@reeinvented914]

I'd like to see if you can switch up the colors even further. Like the main color is gray then blue and yellow for the contrast colors

[@kristielovessterling]

Franken sweater.....my grandaughter says it looks like a "Cookies n' Cream" sweater. 😀

[@joyinthestitches]

I always feel so happy to hear about fitness who knit while their husband plays video games!! If only we could start RDR2 all over again, I’d be so happy! 😉😂 And I love your Sentro hats! If you need another child (10 years old? 12 years old?) to send a hat to, you know where to find me. 😉

[@shirleyenergems2748]

What about naming the sweater vanilla coffee bean. I love how the sweater is coming out.

[@nokesbob2256]

My daughter turns 40 this year. What! lol I told her to enjoy it because the 40's are wonderful. Past the hassle of youth. Past the party till you puck years. lol My son will be 39 this year. I'm smiling, because I have got to watch these human's grow and become beautiful human beings. Enjoy all the mile stones your sons have and take lots of photos! The baby blanket is beautiful. I think the Centro knitting machine is like another pair of knitting needles. It's a knitting "TOOL' like any other. Think of sewing. Do we need to hand stitch our sewing, or does everyone own a sewing machine. I think the Centro has a purpose in the knitting tools. I think it's so cool that you can crank out hats so fast and they are all beautiful. Same with making socks. Oh, and I love the second color combo for your sweater where you swapped out the gray and yellow. Love the new look. Sometimes you just want the hat or sock because you are cold and need it and can't wait two weeks to hand knit it. I honestly enjoy seeing what you make on it. Keep them coming!

[@fullamhoneyfiber]

I think I know who this shepardess is in az and she is amazing!!

[@melissaemery8686]

I didn’t huff at you using the knitting machine!😂 I thought oh do I need one of those? Your husband’s sweater is going to be so nice.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@robertmae3416]

I've had my Sentro for a few weeks now. I too can't use it much for adult hats and I was hoping that I could find lots of stash yarn to use up. However, it doesn't seem to like the twined yarns I've made using my Kris Krafter yarn twister. So, I am looking for other projects to use it for instead of wearing out my hands. Simple hats for charity is the answer. So I won't send it back, even though the counter (like so many others have said) doesn't work, it drops stitches, or twists them, for no apparent reason and it is only really useful for knitting hats double (makes a better fabric) and this can get expensive.

[@cynthiakarkut8645]

It has to be the Tayler Sweater!

[@natureknitsgirl]

Your sweater reminds me of Headwig. Like a snowy owl. 🙂 it’s going to be so pretty.

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

My son says the SAME👏THING👏. ❤️❤️

[@gailjahn8303]

🤩what sweater are you wearing today? I love it (and your others you wear)!😍

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

Thank you Gail! Alas, this is a cotton cardigan I bought from Target about a year ago. It’s one of my favorites. 😊😊

[@lorikirkwood5414]

I really like your "Frankenstein" sweater, and I can't stand to hear it called that (EW!). May I make a suggestion to just call it Chocolate Chippy sweater? It looks like chocolate chip ice cream to me!
