The Sock Project 📖 by Summer Lee Book Review ➕a new sweater caston

[@westmaven]

🖤Hey knitting bestie! What are you working on? 🖤

[@caseywagner9484]

I've been intrigued by the Laerke Bagger book and am so impressed by your creativity in tackling that sweater from it!!! Keep us posted!

[@westmaven]

Casey, I definitely will!! Fingers crossed it turns out as I imagined, I’m also really excited for her second book, just waiting for that preorder

[@beverlyholland861]

Hi. Love your podcast today. Wanted to let you know that I got the book THE SOCK PROJECT on Amazon Kindle. I was able to glance through it while listening and watching you. I’m so glad I have this book. Thanks for showing it. See you next time.

[@westmaven]

Beverly, yay! I really think that Summer’s patterns are so fun! I have so many already, and the book has so many tips I just know I will be referring to it time and time again, also so good to know it’s available digitally now!

[@kellyb739]

Really like how you styled your wisp tank. I would consider making it now. Thanks for sharing ! ❤

[@westmaven]

Thank you Kelly 🖤

I just found you on IG and I was sooo excited to find a Portland friend on KZbin. I also have an KZbin channel and live I. portland. Love all of your projects and like you I also got my Summer Lee book and really love it. I talked about it on my last episode. I’m on a quest to knit the perfect sock this year. So lovely to meet you here. 💖🥰

Hi, I’m in Spokane not tooo far away. Will check you out too. I’m more of a crocheter but we dabble in knitting on my channel too! ❤

[@westmaven]

I'll check it out!

[@sandydansy]

Oooh so fun that you’ve started your close knit project! I’ve checked that book out at the library two times already but haven’t proceeded with a knit yet… and now watching you I’ve placed a hold on the book for a third go-round. 😅 I’m excited to hear about the sock KAL, I have some lavender Kaos merino and alpaca yarns coming hopefully early next week and I’ll join the zoom!

[@westmaven]

Yay Sandy I’m so happy you are joining the KAL 💜

[@HeatherDushanko]

I'm also thinking sitting on yarn for the pineapple so I'll be excited to see your progress!!

[@westmaven]

Heather fingers crossed this time the swatching will be a success🖤

[@professorpurl]

so funny! I shared about the close knit book on my podcast this week too!

[@westmaven]

Nicole it must be in the air, I swear I will share something or decide to make something and suddenly see it everywhere 🖤, I definitely think Laerke is inspiring

[@joannecrate1486]

I always enjoy your episodes so much. And as a matter of fact you have inspired me to knit the alpine bloom shirt and long sleeve and I love them. I need to update ravelry I am really behind. I provide day care to my 2 grandchildren and they are quite interested in my knitting so I love the childrens hat you have made. 👏🙏🏼💕🇨🇦 I am currently knitting the Big Cosy Cardi it’s taking awhile!! Lol

[@westmaven]

Joanne I love that you knit the alpine patterns I found those so enjoyable to make and wear, maybe we can get your grandchildren into knitting, my mother showed me the basics but my grandmother teased me into learning continental knitting which I am grateful she did I think it improved my overall tension. If they are really young crochet I think is easier to learn even if it’s just making a chain 🖤

I am making the Clara Dress for my grand daughter. I am using a cotton yarn in a dark rosy color.

[@westmaven]

Joyce 🤩I bet it looks sooo cute I still want to knit a tiny dress but haven’t had a reason to

[@heatherpiotrowski9396]

I love the sweater you started! It's exactly what I want to make! I just don't have enough leftovers. If anyone has scraps of black yarns let me know!
