haha the way i can't tell if you actually don't watch TV while knitting or just wanted to put the secret word in your comment 😆 but i would recommend starting with really basic knits like pure stockinette stitch in the round! and i still definitely pay a little less attention to the TV show while knitting since i sometimes need to look down 😅

I just finished a Moby sweater for my husband and immediately cast one on for myself! I cant get enough of the cables!

haha i love the design so much!! thank you for watching 🥰

I also love Ivy! If I could design a knitting pattern based on the song, I would do a CABLEd sock in which the base colour would be grey and the cables would be ivy green….assuming colourwork cables are even possible 😅

oooh that sounds gorgeous 👀 i do think it would be possible but a little hard haha!!

Loved your video! And I’m glad you showed your ‘cabled’ Moby sweater as I’ve been wanting to knit that and so you’ve inspired me. I started the Beatnik a while ago but never finished it but now I think the Moby might take the place of that one.

I'm waiting on some yarn that I ordered a couple of weeks ago so I can cast on the cable packed folklore cardigan for my trip to see the Taylor's show in August in LA! Hope i can knit fast enough to get it done in time :)

oooh that's so exciting!! are you making the folklore color palette that the cardigan originally came in, or something different?

@@midsummerknits Same colour palette as folklore! Couple changes to the lion brand pattern is that I'm knitting the front panels and back as one piece, mostly because I hate seaming pieces together and I made the cables mirrored on each side instead of all twisting the same direction because I am a fan of symmetry haha

It is not a big deal to unravel italian bind off ✌🏻 at the beginning it may be annoying but you get into it and the thing “flies off the needles” lol so no worries ❤

I'm swatching for Landon's cabled sweater now!! (But the yarn is quite a bit heavier than advertised....not sure if I should buy. more yarn or continue)

oh no, that's annoying 😭 hmm can you make a smaller size so it will still fit him?

@@midsummerknits Unfortunately, it's more complicated than just making a smaller size. My stitch gauge is too big but my row gauge is spot on, and the sweater has a small armhole depth which I think would be too small for Landon if I made the smaller size. It's got raglan sleeves and I think it'll be difficult to make the armhole depth longer without changing the circumference of the sweater. So now I'm thinking about using a different pattern...
