Your Cable Knit Sweater Recommendations!! + choosing my next project

[@CallMeAL1]

I supremely appreciate your size inclusivity concerns. I f***ing hate hunting for patterns on the webs and the sizes stop at “XL” while not listing any measurement.

[@moonpluto6732]

More KopyKali also has a sweater she made that has a 20 inch positive ease on each size she has made so its baggy on every pattern she has set out to release and thats pretty cool

[@rmarie324]

I love Ikouxn! It’s so cool when your faves cross over :)

[@Terrestriellie]

Omg I'm not far into the video (I'm stalking the comments) but I suggested ikoxuns video in the Instagram question so I wonder if that's why Emma included it! Edit: Emma said a few people recommended the pattern so there must be a crossover in the audience!

[@rachaeldiviney712]

I hate to add another one to your list but Zhade Lang made THE MOST incredible aran knit which blended the cables of the Chris jumper with the lushness of the Harry one. She's also wonderfully chaotic

[@yarivimarquez]

When Harry Met Sally in Billy Crystal as Mike Wazowski color would be AWESOME!

[@madeinthemoment]

mike wazowski color i'm dead omg

[@13ellamy]

honestly i LOVE the idea of a really classic type of pattern with a really fun color of yarn. i love how vibrant the green is without being a full-on neon color. i NEVER would have even thought of a color like that for a project like a cable knit sweater, but now that you've proposed it i'm super excited to see it! a "when harry met sally" sweater in pickle juice is such a fun idea :-D

[@yapyapyap871]

for the concern about the amount of inspiring white sweaters, you could always make the sweater in a light-medium toned green or gray or brown where its neutral and versatile but not white? (if this makes sense)

[@madeinthemoment]

okay amazing idea

[@CommanderAqwah]

I could totally see a bright green sweatter looking amasing with a super fine stripe of black around the shoulder level or waist. It would tie in with more outfits too. The vest looks amazing!

[@maiscestwhat]

A deep dive on Drops Design would actually be really interesting, considering some of the controversy :)

[@darrellfischer7164]

my all time favorite cabled sweater I've made (and i've made quite a few) is Nightingale by Norah Gaughan. So unique and looks really great in dark moody yarns

[@Pharm2be]

I’ve been working on the handsome Chris sweater in handspun yarn. 50% Romney and 50% alpaca. It’s very warm.

[@anab.6129]

how is the pattern? i've been thinking about casting this on but i'm always a little nervous about cable patterns! i've had a few too many confusing experiences to be able to cast on confidently.

[@AlisonDunn-rb5yy]

I've been working on that pattern and i love it! i do have some experience with cables but the pattern has both written instructions and charts which i think helps a lot to visualize how cables work@@anab.6129

[@figblossomdesigns]

now I Need to knit a cable sweater too 😫 I was looking at the When Harry Met Lucy one a while ago, I might have to start that as my next project

[@madeinthemoment]

aw yesss we can make them together !!

[@figblossomdesigns]

@@madeinthemoment ok i’m convinced lol need to go through my yarn and see what I have… might need to modify for fingering weight hahahaha

[@paulhaesemeyer861]

So glad you love When Harry Met Lucy!!!

[@laurahorgan7657]

I think the pickle juice yarn would make a really nice cable vest. Thanks for all your videos.

[@KatmodoDragon]

I just want to say as a new follower on your channel (and a person who is new to the world of knitting), your channel has been an absolute binge worthy time. I've been watching this show on my TV sitting next to my mom while I knit (and she scrolls through reddit) and we have been listening to all sorts of drama since 12pm today (the 13th of Jan. 2024) it is now 5:36pm (cst) at my time of writing this, and my mom and I are completely hooked on your videos (pun intended.) Thank you for your amazing content!

[@zumocrafty]

This video is a great reference! I am planning on making a dark green tweed cable sweater, either the handsome chris or inishturk which is a freebie by lionbrand. I must say I LOVE your duck person sweater!!

[@mele8412]

so I found your Channel yesterday and I can finally put it into words: You have smart puppy Energy. Just want you to know that and that I really enjoy your videos while Chrocheting bc you are reading all the text! So thought through and entertaining

[@soup8143]

So glad you made this video. I only crochet atm but I would love to learn how to knit and I wanna come back to this once I’m more confident in my soon to be knitting skills

[@Denise11Schultz]

03:38 I’ve always liked that pickle juice color and it goes really well with cobalt blue or darker value magenta around the neckline/waistline.

[@michaelalala]

Definitely think you made the right choice with the pickle juice pattern! For some reason the baggier fit just seems to make more sense with that color to me? And if for some reason you don't think the color looks great on you, you could layer a turtleneck or dickie under it for some color contrast between your skin and the garment. Really want ALL of these sweaters, thanks for the comprehensive pattern guide!!

[@ashblu3]

i see adam driver i click :) (i would’ve clicked anyway because i love emma’s videos- even as a non-fiber artist)

[@jimmydoesknitting]

The Saven is my absolute favroite sweater. I have made it and I'm obsessed. They also have a more feminine version that they just released. I can recommend any of the Hudson & West cable patterns. I really love a black cable.

[@zoeapsel5018]

i’m currently knitting the lana vest! it’s my first time doing cables and it’s been great so far- my only issues have been due to my inability to read properly. the techniques are easy to learn it’s just repetitive and has been taking me too long to work up(i’m a v slow knitter tho lol)

[@Treegona]

I've been working on the Arguyle Kathleen Sperling for a while now. Small gauge so it's slow going, and it's the kind of pattern where you have to pay attention to every row. But I love the finished look of the cables and the traveling stitches over the Gansey-style diamonds. And it's free so you can check it out and change your mind no harm no foul

[@EdwinWalkerProfile]

I've been doing the same hunt through vintage Aran patterns. It's been driving me insane trying to decide on one I like.

[@nessi3193]

Love the designs ❤ you missed the one I have my eyes on, the "Honeycomb Aran" by Gayle Bunn. It's a free pattern on Ravelry - I haven't knit it yet, but definitely will 😊

[@GabitoRivera]

OMG! I’m knitting the When Harry Met Lucy sweater! 🥰

[@ninabeann]

I'm currently knitting the myra vest by Irene Lin, its a fun knit and really similar to the lana vest

[@sudiet3768]

That pickle green yarn looks so great with your hair and skin tone! I sure couldn't pull it off, but you can, friend!

[@Janie0016]

This inspired me to cast on a cable knit vest 😅 despite having at least 10 current wips. BUT I'm almost done with my COWboy vest 😊

[@crochetcreationsbyjessica9256]

I love both of your channels. I love seeing your knit items. I just learned how to knit, I am self taught through KZbin but it is hard for me to get the hang of it. I will keep trying and hopefully one day I can make beautiful knit things like you do. Enjoy your content. 😊

[@bhanani5480]

I love cable sweaters and would love to make my own plus size cable knit cardigan with a hood

[@kerynha]

If you want to make the side tides adjustable, why not make small chains with eyelets in each and buttons on the back so is you can choose what button and which eyelet to use depending on your needs?

[@aussie_vonnie]

I love the Seaway for something different. Would be great in your pickle juice colourway.

[@AshleyEhSMR]

I have no business being here, as I don’t knit or know anything about yarn, (other than its relationship with sheep), but your videos and personality are entrancing. 🥳 Hugs and 🍪cookies for being fabulous! Pickle juice Color, that’s amazing 😆✊ I actually really like the neon. Also, do people knit Christmas ornaments? Is that a thing? 🤔

[@toshabeans]

I think the one with the waffle shoulders and sleeves would look great in that green

[@kristalburns3490]

I guess I'm "on trend" with trying to get to starting my cabled sweater. I chose Arguyle by Kathleen Sperling, found for free on Knitty ( in the archives ). It has a great arm pit detail.

[@emmathomas2832]

i truly cannot start an aran jumper right now i do NOT have time but yall are tempting me

[@barefootwildflowers3209]

I'm working on the Arctic light now. It's honestly easy with her videos.

[@Limbothy]

Love love love the music festival set you made!! Absolutely no pressure to do so, but would love to make one for myself if you’re ever inspired to make a pattern. What yarn did you use to make it? The colors are stunning as well 🤩

[@michellemantilla7009]

This video is about to SLAP!!!

[@ew5301]

I think the yellow is a cool enough color that looks good on your coloring

[@dingustime]

Oh my god I must learn to knit IMMEDIATELY so I can make every single one of these

[@C1ouDN1n3]

Can’t wait to see your finished product ❤

[@ogopogo426]

Such an inspiring video!! I need to cast on the Maurizio Sweater

[@noway4435]

Emma in the moment made a cable knit, so I’m gonna make a cable knit

[@cazkiwinz4300]

I made a cabled giftcard holder once 😂 Yes, I know, I’m sooo talented 😂😂 (I gave it to my dad for a Xmas present with his giftcard) But I loved every moment! Cables are so freaking fun… so I ran out and bought all the interchangeable needles, cable needles, and notions and stuff … and haven’t done another since 😮 I don’t make clothes cos I don’t have the oomph (or body style) for it (short torso, I look like I’m wearing a potato sack), but I love how your vest is coming along! Maybe I should make a cabled beanie…. I don’t wear them myself ‘cos I’m precious about my perfectly hairsprayed-to-death short hair style similar to yours lol… but I have friends who love them!

[@edinacole6382]

I just finished the Waffle Loop sweater out of Merino (DK) weight and LOVE it. I think you should make it too :)

[@LibbyFelty]

I cannot knit nor do I want a cable knit sweater vest yet here I am😂😂😂😂

[@valeriabalini2988]

I never knit cable sweater, but I want to tryyy! I fear that without a video tutorial I may fail…so I don’t know whether to try with a written pattern or not

[@GymGirl88]

Seaway sweater in green would definitely look like a pickle 😂 not a problem, just a consideration

[@ShrimpShrimp]

Honeycomb aran is also a good one, and free.

[@jacquelynsmith2351]

Personally, I still need to put the sleeves on the Salt River Sweater for my bf. I'm working on Julie's Sweater from Kristen TenDyke for me before I start on the Arctic Light Sweater from Kutovakika (Veronika Lindberg)

[@car3498]

that green yarn is going to look so sick with your hair color!!! :)

[@fvidder2210]

"Saven" = "Evans" rearranged, as befits a sweater inspired by but intentionally different from the Knives Out sweater (as opposed to the Handsome Chris, which attempts to recreate the exact sweater).

[@clairewulf]

"what better way to try than to spend 10s of hours knitting something" so funny. oh the woes and joys of being a fibre artist.

[@katherineashby1381]

I am watching this video while guilting myself for not finishing my dad’s Harry Met Sally sweater in time for Xmas 😅

[@carmenbaby]

Ur outfit and hair are giving Draco Malfoy in the best way possible btw

[@mayflower1900]

I love that thumbnail!

[@pakedermsfavs9080]

I want to so badly make one of these . The cost of the yarn and the thought of not finishing it is to strong . Still on the list .

[@oliviaf4411]

i vote Maurizio sweater in the pickle juice, DO IT

[@carmenbaby]

Ive been urging to do a cable knit sweater for sooo long 😭

[@crystalbadillo921]

okay but I need to know where you got your “duck person” sweater!!! 🦆

[@efrainsknitcrochetandtarot2135]

Do you need test knitters for this!?!?! I love knitting arans

[@retsa]

breaks my heart that the handsome chris sweater isn’t called handsome ransom

[@rukeyamohamed1644]

I'm looking for amount of stitches for size jerseys in double knit and chunky wool pls

[@margitp8913]

What happened to your pickle juice colored yarn? Did you make that cable jumper and can you post a photo?

[@valliemcc8352]

I must've been subconsciously aware of this cable knit sweater trend because I'm nearly done with both the front and back panels of my own cable sweater 😅

[@valliemcc8352]

Ok I finished the video, since it wasn't mentioned it's the DNA Pullover and I'm making it in dark green!

[@saulemaroussault6343]

But also : intarsia cables ?

[@Mingeeming10]

thankyou for always mentioning size inclusivity. I am not plus size but most patterns do not fit me the way they fit the creator and often dont account for curvier measurements.

[@mistywebs]

"what's life without a little yarn chicken" should be embroidered on the back of a leather jacket 😆

[@RachelJennetti]

Your lack of needle caps scares me 😅 i could never raw dog holding up a project

[@C1ouDN1n3]

This may seem unrelated, cause the images aren’t my demographic,but I just really wish that the reference pictures weren’t just white man celebrities we’ve seen in them over the years. I just saw my mom in one of these cable nets sweaters. And it so cute.

[@calebl6586]

I choose not to go to the theatre because I am those people and I know it 😅

[@vanessafasanella2274]

I love that color, but it does not love me. I had a sleeveless mock turtleneck in it, and wore it all the time, but that was in 1989.

[@MunaLal-f7d]

I would like to join cause I am also one of the good in knitting sweaters and all hope i will get response from you you sir or mam🙏🏻🙏🏻🌹❤️

[@asmrtpop2676]

lady gaga in thumbnail spotted

[@lauriesmith7517]

"Boomer way?" Boomers not welcome here? No, Pickle Juice is not good for you, but I doubt there are many people who WOULD look good in that acidic green.

[@0rchid_lily6868]

Liked u until I saw you are friends with nickisnotgreen

[@oddcrazytoilet]

I'm making the Handsome Chris right now (almost done). I'm a pretty experienced knitter. My hands are in a lot of pain. It's taken months, and I'm doing needless cables. Just do the Quinn sweater instead 😅
