[@movingstitches]

minute 33:59 and I am thinking ¨wow, they really know your colours because your Hype sweater is literally matching your spinning 🤩! great episode as always Marlene, thank you!

[@marleneknits]

Right?! 🤎 this color combination has shaken up my world 🥹

[@Sheisme120]

49:34 I agree, they are all separate hobbies!🧶😍

[@knitting.your.life8]

Woooow, the stripe hype sweater looks so good on you, I love this color combination 😍 and I have a feeling, that version I like more than the previous one. Such a cool piece ❤

[@marleneknits]

Thank you so much!! 🥰

[@leslienero7884]

Congrats on your traveler shawl spin and finished shawl! It looks beautiful. Those quilt socks are next on my sock making list, right now I've started the Among the Wildflowers socks that just came out by Jessica McDonald.

[@marleneknits]

thank you ☺️ I can’t wait to make them again and those socks look so cute, happy knitting 🥰

[@RootwitchQueen]

I had Muesli for breakfast this morning as well! I love to have it with yoghurt and fresh blueberries and a smidgeon of honey drizzle ❤ Love your stripe hype sweater and the colour palette you chose. It is very fitting for you 🤗 So glad to catch another knitting podcast from you ✨️

[@marleneknits]

uh that sounds fantastic! I love it with peaches or apples or berries depending of what we have at home, joghurt as well and some maple syrup 🤎 thank you so much!! ☺️

[@RootwitchQueen]

@@marleneknits That sounds absolutely yummy! I will have to try this way myself, with maple syrup and perhaps a little bit of cinnamon spice on the yoghurt and some peaches 🤔 Sounds like I would like it a lot, as I love fruit and Muesli already 🤭

[@marleneknits]

@@RootwitchQueen for my the nuts are so important in it as well! and yeah, I love cinnamon too ☺️

[@RootwitchQueen]

@@marleneknits Agreed! Oh my gosh, that can definitely break the experience for me hehehe I like to add pecans (very popular in my state where I grew up), walnuts or almonds to mine as well. It's such a delicious taste 🤤

[@marleneknits]

@@RootwitchQueen these are my favorite nuts too! haha love this little muesli tangent we just went on! 🌰 hope you have a nice weekend :)

[@KatGS-k1o]

I just this summer learned how to knit lifted increases for a pattern and while it definitely took a little while to get used to, since I figured it out I've become a big fan of how they look. Love the podcast!

[@marleneknits]

Thanks for watching & I think I’ll definitely try and figure it out at one point, always good to learn something new :)

[@sarahashley13]

Completely agree about planning out projects. Regardless of what craft I'm doing, planning is a third of the fun for me...and probably the part I enjoy the most! Love that about spinning to knit. Just wait until you start dyeing fiber to spin to knit. ;)

[@marleneknits]

Love that! haha yeah I feel like there’s still more rabbit holes to explore fiber wise! ☺️

[@create_w_sar]

another great video Marlene! You can tell that fibre was made for you, matched your FO so well!!

[@marleneknits]

thank you!! 🥰🍂

[@KarenHallberg-c4p]

Lovely podcast. I’ve been watching for several months. So glad I found you.

[@marleneknits]

thank you Karen! happy to have you here ❤

[@frau_seekuh]

Great episode, as always! I always enjoy the little vloggy part at the end too 😊 and I feel the same way: looking forward to fall too 🧡

[@marleneknits]

thank you Joana 🧡

[@YoungfolkKnits]

39:26 this sounds like short backward perhaps?

[@marleneknits]

yeah I’ve heard it being called “continuous back” but it might also be short backward!

[@nadinestapler3881]

You did a beautiful job on your striped sweater. It looks great on you. I love the colors.

[@marleneknits]

thank you so much Nadine! ☺️

[@hornrimmedgirl]

MyLys is definitely on our schedule when you come visit, they have such a lovely store! Verdict on the French Grey: It‘s a gorg color, but my first reaction was definitely „it‘s so cold, I would use a warm neutral beige“.

[@marleneknits]

yess 🥰 I’ve already sent it back, couldn’t agree more and thanks for always chatting with me about patterns and yarns! (:

[@retrorainbowknits]

I've planned out 10 projects in advance so I totally get it! Planning projects is definitely a completely different hobby to knitting XD

[@marleneknits]

YES!! 🙌🏼

[@Maria.H26]

Loving this episode ❤️ And the blues you’re currently exploring look beautiful on you!

[@marleneknits]

Oh thank you! ☺️

[@AliciaZvirzdys-jj4bh]

Love your colors for the Framed sweater! I got really excited to see that you’re using handspun for it, since I just finished my first skein for my Framed! Going to Flock next weekend to try and find matching contrast colors. Also, just wanted to say that I really love the French gray rather than the cream for your sweater…I think it goes with the blue so well!

[@marleneknits]

ohh enjoy flock so so much!! 😊

[@KnitandGrace]

Loved catching up with you this week, both over video chat and your podcast! I can’t wait to see your finished Framed sweater. 😉

[@marleneknits]

🥰 me too!! and I can’t wait either ☺️ countdown to rhinebexk starts now!

[@lawyer-skp]

That gray yarn is not my idea of French gray. Your idea to explore a warmer color is spot on. Can’t wait to see you start that sweater!

[@marleneknits]

thanks for validating my thoughts on this! can’t wait either & share more about it ☺️

[@tacistudio]

Always so much fun to watch you beautiful Marlene. I just decided to knit the Framed sweater also. I talked a bit in my last episode, but I’m not 100% decided on the contrasting yarn yet. I’m going to Flock this year and hope I find the perfect yarn there so I can cast mine on. Wish I went last year to meet you. I wish I could spin my own but I have tried a few times and I still am not sure if that is for me. I, like you , love quilts and the quilt start motif, so I’m super excited to knit this one. Great episode and you are doing beautiful summer knits. 💗🧶

[@marleneknits]

that’s so exciting!! I’m wishing you the best time at flock this year ☺️ I’m hoping I’ll be back one day too! enjoy the framed and happy knitting ❤️

[@YoungfolkKnits]

Look at you and your gorgeous traveler shawl ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ it’s so beautiful 😍

[@marleneknits]

thanks Kaci 😘💗

[@Earthwise001]

congrats on your shawl with handspun, No one will notice the difference in your gauge. The colors are beautiful, and it is a grand accomplishment.

[@marleneknits]

Thank you so much! 😊

Thanks

[@momotomo_]

i cant stop making eye contact with those two spools(?) in the background which look like a pair of eyes 👀

[@marleneknits]

ahaha😊

[@terinskyweaver]

Me too! I'm watching while prepping dinner, but kept seeing these big googly eyes out of the corner of my eye 😂

[@balancedskein]

M1L is also my favorite make 1 😂

[@marleneknits]

I love how niche this is and anyone who’s not a knitter would be like what are they talking about!? 😄

[@alexandradegruyter]

[@under.eagle.mountain]

Hi. Great episode once again. I have a podcast here on YT too and from September 1st I am running a KAL for knits inspired by patchwork quilts. The hashtag will be #knitpatchworkkal and I chat about it in my most recent video. All WIPs and double dips are welcome so you can definitely enter with your Framed sweater. Best wishes, Laura x

[@marleneknits]

sounds great! thanks for commenting and inviting me Laura, I‘ll definitely check out your latest episode and remember to link the hashtag whenever I share about my handspun framed next! sending my best wishes x

[@under.eagle.mountain]

@@marleneknits Thank you. Just saw the progress you have made on your sweater and it’s looking great. Looking forward to seeing it finished x

[@knitnpurlen]

Love your handspun for your Framed sweater! Your colorway is beautiful! I just received an order from Yarn Jam, the Shaniko in Fall Patina, it’s so squishy 🧶 I am finishing up a combo spin for my Framed sweater, I’d love to join the kal if you have room. I won’t start though until September, have to finish a test knit first😊 Great episode, love your knits and spins🫶🏻

[@marleneknits]

thank you!! I would love to see your combo spin! definitely just send me an instagram dm and I’ll add you to the group ☺️🧡
