I love your Poppy Ter and your own designed. Love the colors for both. Ooh, love the idea of kits for your sweater! That’s awesome!
Completely obsessed with the sweater design!!!
Best Outro Ever! Love you Rocky!
Hello from the Edinburgh airport! Sounds like you had a great trip. I’m excited for these new designs!
Your spinning looks amazing!! And that color…. It’s gorgeous. You sure are talented between how far you have come with spinning and your gorgeous knits! Love the tank top and now I am obsessed with your new sweater design. It’s brilliant!

I love your videos. I watch them while working on my own knitting/crochet projects and it makes it feel like I’m hanging out with a friend and just chatting. I look forward to watching more of your videos 🤗

I do that too! Love listening to other lovely knitters talk about knitting while I work on my own creative stuff, knitting, crocheting, or painting 👏🏻
I’ve been wearing my Line knit tops in Southern California in the 90’s and it’s been ok. I’m in Vegas right now and it’s 115 at 5:30pm. I really like your tank top design. I look forward to seeing the pattern.
Hi Leslie, thank you for another great podcast, love the progress you made on your sweaters. They are coming along fine. Your sweater design looks great, following along on Instagram, thinking about testing, depends on the time frame you are going to need it tested. Happy knitting, Petra

Thank you so much!
I am super excited for your tank design. I'm a tank and cardigan year round girl so I'd love to test it. I don't have Instagram but im thinking of taking the plunge for knitting's sake.😂

Thank you!
Do you mind sharing the stretchy collar attaching technique you're using? Im working on a baby knit for a friend and I'm very concerned about the collar fitting over the head 😂
@knitcalifornia

The technique is to basically not bind off, and just sew down the collar stitch by stitch. Pull one stitch off the needles with your tapestry needle and sew down to the corresponding “first” stitch of the collar, and so on! Super stretchy!

@@knitcalifornia ahhh gotcha. Thank you!!

Will your design be available only in the kits? I hope they'll be available pattern only as well. Temperaturewise, we're in the 90s today where I live and hardly anyone (except stores) has AC.

The pattern will be available on its own! Ugh that’s so rough! Stay cool if possible!!

@@knitcalifornia That's good to know, I'll be on the lookout for it! Yes we try our best, at least the nights are cooler so we can open the windows then, and it should be getting a little bit better (80s) for a few days soon.
