Glad to see you back. A note on superwash.. It's better consumption than fast fashion! We need more people doing better than getting frustrated they aren't perfect. I think if you can enjoy non-superwash, that's great.. But don't let others make you feel like all you can do is throw your hands up and say "no ethical consumption" because while true, you are doing better probably on average than most Americans. All the little steps matter!

PS. Congratulations on caring and making little steps. Making your own clothes from mostly natural fiber is a huge win and I hope you can enjoy that.

Im so glad you are back! I am also so happy to see Barbiecore everywhere, being that I’m a happy color fan. I was always trying to find Barbie pink in stores and I hated that all I could find was millennial pink. Don’t feel bad about your super wash yarn! While it’s great that we can all learn to make better choices for the environment, putting the onus on the little people is ridiculous. Instead of DMing a small content creator who enjoys producing long lasting garments herself, they should be focusing their energy on large corporations that do ACTUAL damage like a shein, Coca-Cola, nestle, etc. Even if every knitter around the world stopped using super wash, we wouldn’t even make a dent in the amount of pollution of these companies make. Enjoy your super wash and block the haters. If you still feel guilty, you can always net zero your impact. Ride the bus for a week instead of driving to work, donate to reforestation every time you buy sw yarn, etc.❤

I'm not a pastel person myself but your pastel yarns give me so much joy. I HAVE started to get into mohair which is entirely your fault (thank you).

So happy you’re back, I have missed your wonderful adorable podcast. Your attitude about designer, yarn, and the love for knitting is contagious. What ever happened I hope it has been worked out.

I literally once stood in a yarn shop with an employee trying to pick yarn for a project, wearing a blue shirt and leggings with blue in the pattern, and said “I’m not really a blue person” 🤦🏽‍♀️

I am really glad I found you. You are great. Thank you

Same here for the swatches! A lot of people cut the yarn in the back of swatches in the round. Oh no! I'd never do that. That yarn is so precious!

Welcome back, it's so good to see you again! 😊 We weren't going anywhere haha

"Or V-A-S-E if you're nasty" omg, I just died. Welcome back!

Welcome back!!! That t-shirt looks really nice on you😊

So Aro, I just discovered your channel with this video and I have a few thoughts: 1. I love your core values that you display such as supportive of other women, environmentally thoughtful, and keeping true to yourself. That last one took me a lot of years to figure out. 2. Your sense of colours and how they work together is impeccable! Not only are they gorgeous, but they are gorgeous against your skin tone. 3. Your knitting is beautiful! Your stitch definition is on point and I love the way you owned up to a small misstep, but realized that you were the ONLY person (well, I should include the designer as well in that group) to ever notice anything without it being pointed out. Don’t be so hard on yourself! Until you sprout angel wings, you are firmly human, and we tend to make soooooooo many mistakes! I am clearly old enough to be your mother, but I learned a lot just watching this one podcast. I am looking forward to seeing those gorgeous fibers hit the needles and then see the finished garment! You mentioned that you have been going through it - I’m sorry to hear that - but you seem to be finding your feet again, as I thought you were delightful; I giggled more than once at things you said. 😁

Awh thank you so much for your sweet words and encouragement!! It means so much 💖

YAY - you're back. 😁

So happy to see you back! Loved seeing all your projects! I've been dealing with having too many projects and ideas 😂 Also I totally don't cut the yarn for my swatches and then undo them to use the yarn for less waste!

I missed you❤ happy you Are back❤

Just found you and subscribed. Happy knitting 🧶 Thank you for the pattern and yarn info 💚

So much inspiration. I think the Aro version of the Stripes! sweater will be amazing if that's what you choose to do with the samples.

Glad you are back and that you are finding joy in your life. I have noticed a change in you when I look at your Instagram posts. My first thought is that you look happy and that you seem to be at peace. I am glad to also hear you say that you are busy with life but find time to knit even though it is not as much. It just means that you have other things that make you happy as well. And yes, I watched the whole video TWICE already!

Glad you’re back! Thank you for sharing about what is bringing you joy. 🩷✨

Your colors choices and your projects always inspire me so much. Thank you!

welcome back Aro! I have missed your episodes! loving all the new yarn acquisitions, and really loving solution you have for those gorgeous flowers!

Welcome back 🙂⭐🌻

You never have to apologize for how long you video is. We love you and can’t get enough. If it is too long for someone for one sitting I am sure they would be fine stopping an coming back to finish. Personally if you had a show every day I would love it. Hope I am not sounding creepy. I just love that your a passionate knitter .

I always enjoy your episodes. You always give inspiration. So fun to watch and I always look forward to your upload. So I patiently wait for every episode 😊

Wonderful time with you! Your projects are gorgeous and so wearable. Her designs are just perfect. Perfectly said about super wash yarn, and I think the ones you bought are beautiful. Knit what you love and makes you happy! - All the best, Kimberly

It’s so good to see you again! And honestly, please don’t feel the need to apologize so much for enjoying things and having preferences! You’re such an inspiration to me in that regard. I love how passionate you are about the things you love ❤️

It's good to see you again! Your projects look great, especially your Moon Set Tee WIP.

I thought your ending was ironic because your videos are one of the things that help me stay happy. It's always good to see you!

Love your podcast and Ozetta overload. Your choice of yarns inspired me and I fell in love with the beautiful pastels and the non-superwash yarns. It's coming into Spring in Australia but I will still be knitting cardigans and jumpers just to indulge myself with all the gorgeous yarns.

I love MOST of Illimani's yarns and have knit with both winter and summer ones from them! They are great!

Yay! Always so happy to watch another aro episode! ❤️

OMG that explorer knits color way with your makeup you're wearing.... perfection!! It's like current aro is planning the full look for when this knit is complete.

I miss your videos so much that I always go back to watch your pass ones Really happy to see you released this new one Xoxo

I really enjoyed watching your episode and I loved seeing all the Ozetta patterns that I have saved in my Ravelry favorites knit up by you! Your Lakes Tee looks amazing, I love the color and it was good to hear your comment about liking the Knitting for Olive Merino cotton merino. I've only knit with their mohair which is so nice, but I'm definitely going to try the cotton merino! I just finished Ozetta's Field Day Jacket recently and I also loved the construction and how she keeps things interesting! Anyway, thanks always for your awesome podcast! It always cheers me up!

Glad you're back Aro , you were missed. Hopefully I will see you at Wool & Folk.

Good to see you again! Happy knitting, new season starts.

Hi Aro! Cafe au lait is a variety of dahlia, I believe. Weird name for the flower too tbh!

I am a new knitter and I am really liking Ozetta’s patterns so I am going to a knit retreat and they are saying to get the lakes tee or the sweater I am excited about that

So glad you’re back and hope everything is well. I’m working on the Sweater no 26 in bright Barbie pink and loving the construction that seems to be very like the Lakes Tee and am so enjoying it ❤

yayyy, welcome back. so nice to watch you again

Always enjoy your videos and the camelia pastel yarn makes me drool

Hi Aro! So glad to see you! As usual your finish sweaters are gorgeous!

So glad you’re back! Also, I could see you eventually making a high contrast marled sweater with a candy pink and a sky blue for like a cotton candy sweater. The rib on the ends could be the pink doubled up ...and now I’m just convincing myself to make this sweater lol

Great episode! Love the sweaters and your yarn - that Bryce Canyon yarn is stunning!

Beautiful as always…… so inspirational……🌷🎶🌷🎶🌷🎶🌷🎶 thank you friend 😉

Glad you’re back 🎉 Another wonderful episode and I agree with your love for the KFO cotton merino. I also have issues with knitting with pure cotton but the cotton merino is so lovely to knit with

*currently making a moon tee* FINE I'LL ORDER STUFF FOR A LAKES TEE -Me, watching this

I was just checking the other day if I have missed your upload! So happy to see that you're back :)

So happy to see you back! ❤

I purchased Illimani Sabri this summer for a camisole project because of your past glowing review. It’s so nice!

Glad that you are back! Loved this episode! Thank you for that! 🩷 I might have to try a pattern by Ozetta now. ☺️

Very glad to see again ❤️❤️❤️

I love listening to you talk about knitting. Watching your videos has really made me feel like knitting garments is accessible and not super scary. I have branched out from hats and mitts and scarves and am currently in the middle of making my first shirt-shaped thing :D (it's constructed of two rectangles, so it's probably a cousin to a poncho, but still)

Omg yay!!!! It makes me SO happy to hear when people feel like they can tackle garments bc of something I (a girl with an iPhone) said 😅 - you can absolutely do it!!

Ozetta is new to me. I will take a look at her patterns. Appreciate the detailed examination of the design. Hang in there!

The pink yarn is probably named after the Cafe au Lait Dahlia, it's that same pale beige and rosy pink

The color of your shirt looks amazing on you😊

Aro it's back! ❤

I love my EKF Earthy DK in Petrified Forest. Hope to have it knit up for New York Wool and Folk or Rhinebeck. Hope to see you there.

Those camellia fiber colors would look so good in a Stripes! sweater. I'm so curious about that cotton yarn 😍

Currently knitting A ranunculus in Rowan Softyak DK which is 75% cotton/15 Yak/10 nylon. It doesn't give the dry, cotton feel and hopefully will drape super well

Aro For Woolenfok Ozetts cardigan with the reversible scarf😮?

Hi Aro just found you and really love your podcast. So much yummy yarn 😂also I wanted to ask you about the incense paper. I really loved it and I’m always burning incense and I love lavender so much. It’s so relaxing. Anyway I clicked on the link you have but didn’t see where to buy for the USA. The online shop seems it’s only for Japan. Please let me know where you got yours. Thanks.

You should try Expression Fiber Arts yarn!! Her 75/25 is soooooo soft and she has lots of pink 😊😊😊😊

Yay you're back!! I'm a newer viewer but I really enjoy your videos and seeing your projects and yarn library. I could honestly go on and on about people who put down people for using superwash wool/acrylic/nylon, but I'll spare you 😅. But basically I think it's all a bunch of crap, and I'm sorry that people have been giving you a hard time.

Hi! I am a Korean and I want to recommend you two cones of creme cash wool (크렘캐시울) if you have any plans to visit Korea. The yarn is well wound and very soft and stretchy so great even for knitting textured or cabled sweaters

YEAHHH!! Your back!! 🙌🏾 I’ll B @ Wool & Folk; I’m ssso excited! When I C U-is it alright 2 get a hug @ a picture? Yvonne in Detroit 😘
