[@shannonoliver5414]

I’m definitely going to knit the Micah’s Raglan Sweater for my grandson. I had previously made him the Flax Pullover Worsted and he loved it so much that he insisted on sleeping in it. He is only 2.3 years old and my heart is exploding with happiness that he loves his Nana’s knits. 😊

[@woolandwine]

OMG, that's wonderful! That's so adorable! That makes me smile! Thanks for sharing!

Another inspiring episode!! So many amazing projects!! Thanks for keeping me company while I did a sewn bind off!! ❤❤❤

[@woolandwine]

Thanks for watching and we hope you enjoyed our projects! We appreciate you! 😊🧶🍷

[@bigblackdogfiberarts]

I'm fairly certain the headband is done in half fisherman's rib aka shaker rib. It's a nice squishy fabric. 😊 No snow to speak of in the Catskills of NY, but the wind has been ripping for days and it is arctic temperatures well into the negative numbers. I swear my teeth are on edge from listening to the wind for so long! Hope your new year was wonderful, ladies.

[@woolandwine]

I agree that the headband is like fisherman’s rib. It’s nice you didn’t get the snow but the wind 💨 and arctic 🥶 temperatures make it difficult to be outside for any length of time. Bbbrrr! Happy New Year and May it be filled with health and happiness! 🧶🍷

[@gerimorrison2892]

Janet I love how your Kore cardi is looking, you are inspiring me to keep up with my Mabel cardi by Isabel Kraemer.

[@woolandwine]

Geri, Thank you! The Mabel cardigan is beautiful and nice to hear that I am inspiring you to keep going. Happy knitting! 😊🧶🍷

[@luciaevangelho4593]

Happy New Year! Loved all the makes and inspiration

[@woolandwine]

Lucia, Happy New Year to you, too! We are so glad you enjoyed our episode and we appreciate you. 🧶🍷

[@taniscomrie7495]

Looking forward to seeing your fav knits but would also love to see the knits that weren't your favs and why.

[@woolandwine]

Tanis, Thanks for your recommendations and suggestions. We will be glad to mention which knits weren’t are favorites and why. 😊🧶🍷

[@tonereinholdtsenhjelle4279]

Happy new year from Norway. And congrats on your anniversary !!

[@woolandwine]

Thank you!

[@TrickyNight24]

My New Year’s Eve cast on was the “Kore” cardigan in shoppel ALB Lino 85/15 wool linen. As I’ve just moved past the front back increases and onto the sleeve increases, I’m both excited and impatient as well lol the fingering garter equals slow growing garment for me! You guys have been ridiculously prolific knitters this year! All the great things and yummy wines too!

[@woolandwine]

I’m so glad that you casted on the Kore cardigan. I agree it is a slow growing garment and will make a nice long lasting garment. The yarn you’re using looks beautiful and will be a nice cool garment for the summer and fall. We’d love to see pictures of your progress if you’d like to show us via our email link in the show notes. Thanks for sharing! Happy knitting! 🧶🍷

[@StarfireReborn]

[@laurakohnross6106]

Happy New Year! Another fabulous episode. So many FOs and WIPs. I absolutely love your podcast and get so excited when I receive the new episode notification. Thank you so much!

[@woolandwine]

Laura, We’re so glad you enjoy the podcast and we love your enthusiasm! Thanks for your nice compliments and happy knitting! 😀🧶🍷

[@Randi19196]

Beautiful knits! I would love to hear about your 2024 faves. (and also if there’s anything you didn’t like. I’m always interested in how yarns held up to the test of time.)

[@woolandwine]

Randi, Thanks for your input. We’d like to showcase our top 5 projects for 2024 and if there were yarns that pill or not holding up, we’ll be sure to mention those too. Happy knitting! 🧶🍷

[@theacolman5954]

Looking good!!! :)

[@woolandwine]

Thea, Thank you! We are enjoying working on your patterns. 😍

[@kezzavicau]

Another great knitting time, molto bene and the snow looks great. 🇦🇺

[@woolandwine]

Thank you for your nice comments and happy knitting! 😀🧶🍷

[@saraw8503]

Claudia, I like your Felix as is.

[@woolandwine]

Thank you,

[@nancyrogness5281]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful knits. Any suggestions on what to use on socks/slippers to make them not slippery? Thanks

[@woolandwine]

Nancy, I heard that Puff Paint and hot melt glue also works well. We will have Claudia share what she puts on the bottom of her socks on the next episode. Thanks for your nice compliments! 😀🧶🍷

[@cherylbaker1396]

Hey Girls! Great stuff. Tami, I am curious to hear about your experience with the Rowan. I knit with that exact yarn last month and I just found it to shed so terribly. I ended up donating it. I loved the fabric and the feel but the fibers were all over my clothes. Not sure this would have been helped by blocking or not. Happy Knitting.

[@woolandwine]

Hi Cheryl! I knit a sweater in Rowan Felted Tweed several years ago and it has been great. I definitely blocked it though, I always do. Claudia has also made a couple of sweaters in Felted Tweed and loves them. It does shed while knitting but so many yarns do. You might want to try again and block your project when it’s finished. Hugs! Tammi

[@saraw8503]

I am a big fan of Rowan felted tweed. I have done a couple of projects with it and have some now to do a Hoodola hood.

[@woolandwine]

Good morning and Claudia here. I have been working on my cinnamon and bourbon, which is Rowan felt a tweed. I don't notice it shedding that much, definitely not like mohair. I just blocked the bottom and I absolutely love the way it blocks out. It is so soft and flowy. Give it another try. In my opinion, it's definitely worth it.

[@kathylagreca9893]

Can you please put the info of your wine? That's the style I like. Wonderful show.

[@woolandwine]

Kathy, The wine was delicious and is: Antico Feudo Toscano Ricasoli 2019. You can check with your local wine store and see if they have it or can order it. We use the Vivino app and you can buy wines through the app also. Cheers! 🧶🍷

[@kathylagreca9893]

@woolandwine thanks so much.
