But you have all the amazing fabrics 😊 hope someone starts yarn product line in India

[@sarahhassler4398]

I just found your site and I am loving it. I love your upbeat personality and realism. I live in Portugal and I'm a huge Retrosaria Rosa Pomar fan. It is "my" shop and love the yarns and the people. I'm just retired, I'm 73 years old and I FINALLY have time to knit. Yes---I'm addicted!!

[@sla2888]

You are a GREAT KNITTER .all the sweaters you showed in your blog.are simply👌👌👌

I absolutely just love how happy you are about getting to the yarn shop in the beginning of the video, your excited laugh at 1:26 is so adorable, it literally makes me laugh, too!

[@rachelraye285]

I absolutely love the sweater you blocked over the trip! It is eye catching and stunning! Well done. I hope it becomes a pattern you share because it is GORGEOUS 🎉🎉🎉

[@Kutovakika]

Yes I’m working on the pattern as we speak, I hope to have it ready late December or early January 😀

100 % agree! Yay, can't wait for the pattern to release. Will def go on my to-knit-list for the early spring

Yes yes yes! Love this pattern and I’ve never knitted a sweater but it looks like an excellent first project for me!

Yay! So excited for this pattern, I gasped when you first showed it 😮❤

[@stephaniesterner2291]

@@Kutovakika Hi did you publish the wishbone sweater pattern?

[@Natugrafia]

I love your energy and totally share your excitement for the yarn store and festival! I don't know if its just trendy, but I like/are drawn to pretty much all the colors you purchased. Got me all excited to start new knitting projects!!

[@annetten4166]

I just love your excitement and energy over what ever you are doing, have been fallowing you for 3 years now, love your photography style to.

[@Kutovakika]

Wow thank you so much for following along my journey all these years, I truly appreciate it 🥹❤️

[@fionam3460]

Absolutely love your jumper and it is so beautiful on you. I haven’t knitted anything for over 30 years but would like to take it up, your video has inspired me. You are very talented and it was a real pleasure to come across your joyous videos. Really hope you create the pattern for the fabulous pink jumper.

[@alliepopoff325]

I love these vlogs! Sometimes I knit, fold laundry or clean while I watch them. So nice to have company while I do those things!

[@rosemaryeveleigh3562]

What a festival and what great yarn shopping. I agree that the sweater you started did not have Zoosh and I love the thick pinkish sweater. At the yarn festival you were like a child in a sweet shop. Also skipping on the way to the shop. What a delightful podcast sweet Kika

[@anitaprashar8657]

So much fun to watch you shopping, knitting 🧶

[@ksto6854]

Yes yes yes to the pattern for the rose colored lace panel sweater! ♥

[@tracidasilva7210]

Both of the knits are beautiful. I am so relieved you left the collar on the wishbone sweater- I love it!

[@yarnchickenkim]

I love the beautiful sweaters you ended up knitting. The process of finding that perfect pattern for special yarns often takes me years.

[@theweatherisaokay4964]

How I wish I can knit more sweater to wear. Lovely holiday trip, glad you bring us with you on your yarn shopping.

[@cherylcameron9972]

Yes patterns please! The pink cabled sweater is fabulous…..but then so was the ivory coloured one you blocked in the hotel room….I think I would buy these patterns if you made them up. I love your enthusiasm and I had eyes as big as saucers when you were looking for yarns, sooooo happy for you to be there.

[@Ali-yo6vl]

Ugh what a cozy video. Your happiness is really infectious.

[@carolinel.6204]

It is such a pleasure following you, and you are so cute lighting up at the festival. Definitely inspires me to create more again. Thanks for the good vibes. Much love

[@Pipscape]

Yes, we need the pattern for this pretty pink lace panel sweater. So lovely and cozy! The festival in Barcelona reminds me of Stitches West in the USA. It's fantastically overwhelming and one needs multiple days to take it all in. Thanks for sharing your Knitty joy!

[@valeriesuttonpayne7413]

Kika, Jukie is precious. It’s clear you adore each other. Your enthusiasm is so fun to watch! I can imagine how I would feel if attending the Barcelona Yarn Festival. Hope it was SO much fun !

[@bebe033]

Wow both the sweaters you knitted are so lovely - the cables are beautiful. We definitely need patterns for these!

[@shannenpaumen9550]

Love both sweaters, they look amazing and so soft in the pastel colors.

Love your new sweaters. I scrap a lot of projects so I'm glad to hear others do as well. Merry Christmas

[@masz10676]

U have many blessings this year. The book, husband, house. I'm so glad u r using ur designer skills. The shoulder seam design is cool. That is something I've never seen and I've been looking. I have many years to knit before I can knit any of ur designs. They don't look hard until I look at pattern. I'll get there. Thanks for ur great AV.

[@carolcorcoran9643]

Yes I would love to knit the pink lace sweater. I can't believe you just whipped it out like that so talented. I was looking at your designs on ravelry and saw I had purchased one of your patterns the cinnamon twist. I used the back piece with some other elements to create a cardigan for a friend. I was so surprised when I saw you were the designer. I love your jolly attitude and fun spirit skipping to the yarn shop. I'm going to start following. Hurry on the pink one I can't wait.

[@sabinalanska7018]

Positive, lively girl! I love your purchases! Love the gray sweater!

Sweaters are my favorite articles of clothing, and I once, long ago, made a little cardigan for my oldest son. But, I’ve never knitted again. Now, I’ve decided to try a sweater for myself, as easy, bulky-knit. All thanks to you.

So beautiful yarns you bought! Your sweaters are incredible, really amazing, love all of them.

[@wendyrowland7787]

I am trying to get my head round the fact that you are spending your time knitting in Portugal when there is so much to see and do. Short northern winter days are good for knitting when there is not so much to do.

[@lgm204]

So much yarn, so little time 😊. Very excited for the pattern for the pink sweater. And for the one you blocked then wore in Stockholm too. Enjoy the snow!

[@Dreamknitgirl-1]

I LOVE THE WISHBONE SWEATER!

[@nadinedetain6765]

Hello Kika, love your vlogs so much, you are such a pleasant person, very positive. Your pink and câble sweaters are absolutely beautiful. Dropped shoulders are not my cup of tee but would not prevent me to knit thé sweater I would only change the form and keep the câbles. Patterns are made to be made to your taste because you shall feel at ease wearing the knits

[@exek337]

I really think the stand up collar for your wishbone sweater is a 'unique' beauty to add to your knitwear. I just don't see this in knitting & hope you keep the collar as is. So much fun and your yarn selection is beautiful, can't wait to see your finished sweaters and hat.

[@missknitz3834]

I agree about the sweater you blocked!!!! I’d love to purchase the pattern when you write it up 🤗 It’s stunning!!!!

[@Morticia147]

I love the last Sweater you wore, that's so beautyful. This Yarnstore might break my bankaccount but I would love to see it. And I envy you the snow, our winters getting warmer and warmer every year and snow now is rare and doesn't last.

[@Kutovakika]

It’s so cosy and soft, perfect for these really chilly Winter days. I’m so glad we’ve had so much snow so early, some Winters there hadn’t been a lot. Crossing my fingers it stays until Xmas 😀

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

Omg. Love love love!!! Isn’t visiting yarn stores like a sneak peak into an earthly heaven? Here in Australia, the biggest yarn and wool growers event is the Bendigo Wool and Sheep Show every year in July. That’s the place all crafters go to for knitting, crochet, weavers, spinners. The Bendigo Wool Mills opens its doors that weekend and bus loads of knitters spend big (me included) on yarn. It’s a great event to catch up with fellow crafters every year too. Check it out if you’re ever in Australia. I’d be happy to have you join us in our car trip over there. 🤣

[@Kutovakika]

Ooh this sounds like the perfect excuse to plan a trip to Australia 😍 I’ve never been but we’re planning to go on our honeymoon next year somewhere in asia, and maybe we could include a stop in Australia on the way 😀😀

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

Get extra baggage space for more yarn. 🤣

[@infamoussphere7228]

@@Kutovakika I missed the Bendigo Sheep and Wool festival (and so did my Finnish wife! :( ) because we had just gotten married and unfortunately the wedding was right slap bang in the middle of the winter omicron wave and nearly everyone got it. We had originally intended to go there on *our* honeymoon! So I have no idea when we're actually going to be able to go as I'm moving to Finland next year! BTW definitely fly Qatar/Finnair because if you fly via Singapore or Hong Kong or an Asian hub you get the Finnair baggage allowance which is 23 kg because it's the longer leg. If you fly via Doha you get the Qatar baggage allowance which is 30 kg.

[@sc00badive]

It's so neat to get to see a wool festival in Spain, halfway around the world! I love it! I love the pink sweater, great decision to take the other one out & start over. The cream sweater at the neck it looks like it's on backwards. It has a gorgeous design, but the drop sleeves are a hard "no" for me. The shoulder belongs on the shoulder, not halfway to the elbow. Just my opinion. I know a lot of designers are doing the drop sleeve, but I hate them. I was so happy to see a video from you on Thanksgiving Day - in the USA - what a treat!

[@jerriecook6908]

Just found your channel while home sick. I LOVED IT! Your delight in the yarn show and all the lovely yarns you purchased was so happy! Now I'm going to go check out some more of your past adventures! 🧶🧡
