We love SunPeaks! Went just once with the kids and we LOVED LOVED LOVED it!

[@maryzcorner]

Wow! I can't wait to see how that shawl looks after you dip dye it.

[@sandraponte3121]

Can’t wait for those ChiaoGoo minis...thanks for sharing them with us!

[@theLogstead]

That new ChiaoGoo set will be brilliant for sleeve and cuff knitting as well! 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽

I'm learning to spin and my first spinning I wove and made into a small bag with fabric. This is a whole new area of fibre exploration and I'm having lots of fun with it. I tried the short single circular ChiaGoos for socks but realized it wasn't quite my style but I love the needles so bought a pair of 2mm circs to work my socks, two at a time. LOVE them!

[@janclayton3782]

You showed the Chiago needles and I’m wishing I owned a set. Had to put my project down because a I need a 9 inch size 7 for the cuff of my sweater project. Hope I find it at my LYS tomorrow.

[@wendym9021]

I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for the review of the Chiagoo needles. I also have a massive collection of 16 inch fixed circular needles for hats. I’ve never been able to magic loop my hats so I have to use double points to finish the tops. I’m definitely going to ask my LYS if they will carry those when they come out.

I am currently saving up for a set of ChiaoGoo needles. Right now I am using Knitter's Pride, they're ok but I want ChiaoGoo. I have heard nothing but great things about them.

[@Sparkles4me]

Will you be doing a review on the chiagoo hat needles?

[@sweetgeorgia]

Josie Montero I’d be happy to! Just gotta pick a hat pattern now...

[@Sparkles4me]

@@sweetgeorgia I wonder if they will be good for sock knitting.....

[@sweetgeorgia]

Oh they have a set that has smaller tips that are designed for sock knitting. Some people swear by them! No need for DPNs or magic loop! I found my fingers were too big but perhaps if I just practiced, it would start to feel more natural.

[@Sparkles4me]

@@sweetgeorgia Thank you

[@pattishanks3788]

I can hardly wait for these new ChiaoGoo mini needles to become available! I love ChiaoGoo especially for their cords. While I do like my Lykke wooden interchangeable set, the cords really miss the mark. I would love to see your overdye process. The shawl is a beauty!

[@athena050829]

Wow these ChiaoGoo needles look fantastic! I've got some tiny circulars for knitting sleeves but they don't come in many sizes. These would be so nice to have!

[@ellenhealey5147]

I absolutely love my ChiaGoo needles! They are my "go to"!

[@vivienneshen8189]

Hi Felicia, thank you for the heads up regarding the shorter Chiaogoo needles! I will be interesting in hearing what you think after using them. Also, are the tips compatible with the longer cables or are they specific for the blue cables? I have the 4 inch tips which technically can make a 16 inch circular, but I find that the tips are just a little too long in combination with the joins, so it's not comfortable to use these as a 16 inch circular.

[@debbiefoster556]

I am a ChiaoGoo convert as well. I love the cords and the needle tips are just right.

[@virginialenker9487]

Guess what---I think that light blue would look good for you! I think overdying does sound like fun, but I wouldn't write off the original blue.

[@sweetgeorgia]

Aww thanks for the vote of confidence. When I finish the shawl, I’ll show it before I overdye it. 😜

[@dianasmith8166]

Had to laugh. You travel with as much stuff as I do!

[@kishascrochetcornerkcc3449]

I really enjoy watching your videos. I don't weave, I am learning to knit but I do crochet. Thanks so much for sharing your time.

I started the Find your Fade about... 2 months ago? First lace, first shawl, first read pattern :) I really like it and I am finally finding my grove with the lace on the second section. I dyed 4 skeins myself in a fade all in the same pot starting with grey, to navy, to blue, to turquoise and then all 4 skeins flecked with black. I love it and can't wait to see it finished :)

[@sweetgeorgia]

SavvyLikeThat that sounds amazing! Love the grey fade idea.
