Sound and lighting is just fine! Both of your sweaters are beautiful. I am amazed at how much you have seen already since moving. And getting your hands on the local yarn is going to be fun watching make all the things with it. What a beautiful spot in Germany to live. So happy you are back!

I always do a lot (too much) when I first arrive to a new location. I can still pretend I'm on vacation for a little while. But eventually I settle in to work and life and realize I can't actually afford to travel every weekend!

Big grin here for your fun stories this time. Adore sheep as well and glad that my hubby is too "infected" to love sheep.

So lovely to see you again Deanna 😊 Glad to hear you're settling in to your new home and taking advantage of all the wonderful travel opportunities. Your finished cardigan is beautiful and your new sweater looks lovely so far as well. I very much appreciated seeing some of the sights from your travels, even in the fog Gruyere looks magical. Thanks for introducing us to your new "neigh-bours" 🤣 Happy Making 🤗💕

Thank you so much! I'm so excited to be back. I'm itching to start exploring the knitting history in my new home. Did you see the tapestries in the castle? They were so beautifully woven I can't help but want to get better at weaving and make beautiful things for my home.

So happy that you reached and enjoy your new surrounging, Deanna!

Thank you so much!

Missed you! Sheep? Ruins? I love a good ruin, but sheep be the bomb! We did a road trip through England and Scotland this past summer and while hanging out at Hadrian's Wall I took soooo many photos of sheep. Best of both worlds!

Glad to be back! I'm hoping to get back to my more educational style knitting/history soon.

Europe is an amazing experience. Thanks for sharing and enjoy! 🧶🧶🧶

It really is! I'm having so much fun exploring.

It is nice to see you and your cats made the move safely to Germany from Japan, but without your furniture it must be rather uncomfortable. You are a fantastic knitter and are very fortunate to live where you are now, I am slightly envious. Your travel episodes are fun and interesting to watch, now that you are in Europe we will expect more travelling and yarn shop episodes from you, so we can travel through you! Peace from Canada.

I'm glad you like the travel episodes. I worry that it feels like I'm just showing off my vacation photos. I'm going to try to get more on topic travel locations that center around knitting once I get more settled here.

I have had that Divide pattern in my favorites for several years. I was intimidated by all the cables, maybe I will give it a try next year.

The cables are thankfully very intuitive and I always love a 1x1 cable because I don't need to dig out a cable needle.
