You are a prolific knitter! I think you'll get it done because every time you say, "We'll see what happens", you just show 5 or 8 completed projects. Your attention span is sharp as a razor blade. You are always so modest. Do you realize how great of a maker you are? You are the Best!!! Glad I got to talk to you once more. Ms. Jo

[@toksknits]

@@joannehurt6393 haha thank you so much! 🤍 I hope I can get all these test knits done soon because I have some shawl knitting on my mind 😊

[@anigozan3785]

I really like it when you're 'rambly,' as you say. You come across as relaxed and and natural, and I love that authenticity and energy. Consequently I love a slightly longer video as I just sit and knit away with you as you talk about all your knits. I get the hand cream thing - I think knitting can dry out our hands a bit. I have hand cream in every room, on every bench, in every project bag lol!! and use it all the time. And pictures are good! Yes please keep them in there - I love seeing more of the projects and yarns, as you talk about them. Lovely video, thank you. I'm really glad you're enjoying making them, because I love watching them. Cheers, Jen xx

[@toksknits]

@@anigozan3785 thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoy the episodes. I just always need to have hand cream on me at all times. I will definitely continue to add lots of pictures since everyone seems to enjoy them 🤍🤍

[@noelleparris9451]

I love that you include pictures as you talk about your knits and yarn. I wish more podcasters would follow your example! One day (when I've worked through my yarn pantry ...which is very well stocked) I hope to try some of the yarns you love so much 😊

[@Ceylon.55]

I have just found your podcast Joyin and enjoyed it so much. Your knitting is amazing and i honestly think some of the best i have ever seen. I am watching from the Uk and have been watching some of your previous podcasts too. Full of inspiration and it's no wonder designers want you to test knit for them. Thank you so much for making the videos for us. I have been knitting for 50 years, since a young child and it is my passion. Love and best wishes from my home to yours x

[@toksknits]

@@Ceylon.55 thank you so much. That means a lot. I haven’t been knitting for that long but I can see it being a lifelong hobby as well. 🤍🤍

[@mdel1129]

I love your videos.... and the pictures you add are very helpful... you showcase the yarn so beautifully ... The companies should shower you with gifts of their yarn.....lol

[@haleynh]

I like all the details you include, like hearing what you are wearing and seeing your photos! Also, for the giveaway, I’ve seen people offer a gift card to a local yarn store (or online store) of the recipient’s choice - I like that idea because it seems convenient for you and it gives the winner a chance to support a local store if they want to!

[@toksknits]

@@haleynh oh that’s such a great idea! That makes so much more sense 🤍

[@MEnAndreea]

Hey! I love your podcast, it has become one of my favorites, since I have discovered it! The pictures are great, also, the way you display the yarn is really helpful. Anyway, just meant to say you are doing a great job, keep it up and all the best to you! 🤗

Ps: don’t you worry about the "rambling“! I‘m so here for it 💖 it brings me joy to see that the episode will be long. You’re very good company to listen/watch while knitting

[@dorajohnson2809]

The pictures you add are great! And that Isager Aran Tweed -- my goodness that is gorgeous! Probably out of my budget, but that is lovely.

[@toksknits]

@@dorajohnson2809 it’s really beautiful. Honestly it think I’ll probably only use 2-3 skeins and the mohair could possibly be optional as well.

[@_somebitsandbobs_]

Knowing what you're wearing is interesting 😊 A gift card for the giveaway is smart and much more convenient.

[@toksknits]

@@_somebitsandbobs_ ahh I’m so glad to hear that. I think I’m definitely going to go for the gift card option

[@toksknits]

@@oldwitchknits-Ursula That must be really nice in Nutiden. I’ve heard great things about that yarn 😊

[@jennymiles4426]

Just discovered your podcast and I loved it You are knitting all the sweaters I love - obsessed with the Seoul and have spent the last hour working out the best way to get the Gerard Garn Hope Silke and Cashmere lace in Australia- looks tricky but Hong Kong may be the best option Also love Other Loops designs, those Danes!!! You knit beautifully and thanks for the tip about both wet blocking and steam blocking - I’ve nearly finished my Maggie sweater that I knit in lovely local natural fingering without the mohair ( so it’s not so warm) and although I don’t have rowing out issues sometimes my stitches are uneven in this lighter looser gauge so I’m going to try your blocking techniques Subscribed followed and friended so no doubt you’ll hear from me again I think you’re fabulous

[@toksknits]

@@jennymiles4426 thanks Jenny 🤗 somehow I think steam blocking really helps to even out stitches. I hope it works out. I’m not familiar with the Maggie sweater. Is it a petite knit design?

[@jennymiles4426]

Yes the Maggie cardigan is a fingering weight cardigan- she shows it short sleeved but the pattern has long sleeves as well and that’s what I’m doing. The shoulder looks like set in sleeves, same as her Poppy tee pattern that I also made and the shoulder fits really well.

[@Serenity-fu8xz]

Love your podcast you are so sweet and genuine ❤

[@toksknits]

@@Serenity-fu8xz thank you so much! 🤍

[@sophieinspired]

I do think it’s nice to mention at one point what you are wearing. Not necessarily right away at the beginning but I like how you did it here, it felt very organic and like a normal conversation style. it gave me the time to actually notice and admire it on my own and felt like you were reaction to my telepathic question/compliment regarding the cardigan 😂💖🧶

[@ElyshaSkipper]

Love all the pictures. I do enjoy knowing what people are wearing incase I am interested in the pattern but I dont think you need to go into great detail about it, especially if you have talked about it in previous episodes. I always enjoy your episodes. Good luck with all your test knits

[@toksknits]

@@lefty_knits thank you! I think the skirt will be finished by the next podcast 🤍

[@jimmydoesknitting]

Great knitting as always. For the liberty... when you do 2 balls at a time, you can make sure that the sides are even (i.e. always increase the same amount at the same time). You usually see it when you do bottom up sweaters when you have to do collar and shoulder shaping at the same time. It's just a different approach. You can do them separately and achieve the same results.

[@toksknits]

@@jimmydoesknitting oh that makes sense. I kept thinking that I must be missing the reason why it’s constructed like that. It makes a lot of sense to do it for bottom up sweaters.

[@jacquelynsmith2351]

Yes, Joyin, I do want to know what you're wearing. I flagged that cardigan as an "I gotta know" as soon as your video started because it is stunning!

[@toksknits]

@@jacquelynsmith2351 haha thank you! I always have to remember to say it in the beginning 😂🤗

[@KNIT_LA]

Amazingly gorgeous wips!!! I would love it if you decide to post a video detailing your cable method! xoxo

[@toksknits]

@@KNIT_LA thank you! I would love to do that. I’m also thinking of a pattern round up of my favorite cable patterns.

[@PurlsBeforeThyme.]

Love your Super Selene colour choice! About camarose Snefnug, I've made the Aegyo sweater and its super cosy but it still does pill a fair bit. It also grew a lot with blocking so I'd probably size down if using it again. Lovely podcast

[@toksknits]

@@PurlsBeforeThyme. oh thanks for letting me know that. I’ll be knitting a sweater in Puno soon so I’m interested to see how it wears but it’s probably just a feature of blown yarns that they pill quite a bit.

[@rosalie-l2d]

[@kelseyc5715]

I personally love pictures showing patterns/yarns and in most podcasts I don’t think they show the picture on the screen long enough. The longer the better for me. I hate having to rewind to look at the picture again.

[@sophieinspired]

A video idea I saw someone else doing (sorry forgot who 😅) was to rate the garments they did like a year ago. so they wore it for a season and shared more how it held up over time, the yarn pilling, softness etc and also the style of the garment, do they love and wear it as much as they thought or what would they change etc I think they did a winter and a summer garment edition. i liked the idea a lot and found it very useful. You could also do something like that, I‘m sure it would be interesting 💖🧶 or you could do the typical what I knit in 2024 roundup at the end of the year or whatever timespan you like. or divide it in other categories like all my summer tops, all testknits, all cables, all colourwork, each category in a separate videos and then comparing them or rate them somehow, definitely would watch that 😅💖🧶

[@toksknits]

So many lovely ideas, thank you! I’m definitely going to do a yearly roundup video but you’ve given me some great ideas for others 🤗🥰🤍

[@annewallace3279]

Love your podcast Joyin. Your knits are gorgeous. When you were talking about the giveaway you mentioned a yarn shop I am not familiar with. Not Garntopia, but the other one. I couldn't quite catch what it was called? Nordic yarns can be hard to come by in Australia so I would love to know about another store that ships internationally. Thanks for your work.

[@toksknits]

@@annewallace3279 oh it’s called Uldstedet. It’s owned by the woman who is also the owner and founder of Gepard garn. They carry all of Gepard’s yarns as well as other Danish yarn brands.
