That's the plan😅 I'm way behind on my new strategy of on skein on the wedding dress per skein used on another project😅😅
loved your video, your dog is so cute coming up and wanting snuggles, I held my breath as your son was climbing the steps on the tractor lol. he is growing up so fast, love your sweater, I made a similar sweater and enjoyed how fast it knit up. i am with you on being a sweater knitter by heart. looking forward to more of your videos, thank you !

Thank you! The dog loves it when we sit on the ground so she can come to us easier! Having an active toddler means holding my breath all the time😅 I love watching him grow and figuring things out on his own! Chunky quick knits are nice to do once in a while! Can't wait to get back into sweater knitting!! Have a great week!
Drops Air & Kidsilk make THE BEST fabric ever for the Levitate Wrap! 😍😍 Highly recommend 🙏🏼 Greetings from Finland!

I’m still struggling with the cardigan I started in January 😢 wish I were smarter reading patterns. 😅 I love watching you speed through your knits. I can only dream 💙🧶💫

Good luck with your cardigan!! I'm not the best at reading patterns either, I make mistakes all the time and have to frog😅
It‘s soooo lovely on you Oline. 💙 The colour, the fit and the arm length- everything would be perfect for you. Sadly it’s not for yourself. Maybe you can make one for yourself with the leftover yarn and find another yarn for the two kids sweaters?

@@norwegianknitter you should definitely make one for yourself with this yarn. It suits you so well. Maybe you could make another blue colour for the two kids? One a little bit brighter blue and the other one even brighter. I mean the smallest is the brightest. So they match, but the bigger the darker. I like that idea. Hope you understand. 😅

I think I'll make them exact matches and rather get more yarn for myself at a later date😅 I do love this sweater, but I love matches more and giving my friends and their kids knits they can wear together🥹❤️
What a great colour! I love holding yarns together that are just slightly different colours. Gives so much depth without being an obvious marl!

Yes! I love doing that! Especially when one of the yarns is mohair! It's so fun to play around with color combinations💙
The color that resulted from the two shades came out really gorgeous. Sweater looks sooo cozy, makes me really want summer to go away right now haha

I love the look of your sweater- you’ve inspired me to pick my Salerno cardigan back up. I was stuck on sleeve island but it’s so chunky it won’t take long to finish. Thanks for prompting me to finish my WIP. Your projects are always fantastic and I love watching your content. Have a great week!

That sweater is SO gorgeous and looks beautiful on you. Your friend is so lucky! Do you have enough yarn left to make a matching sweater for yourself? I am glad that you continue to make time for the wedding dress and will look forward to seeing how that is coming along too ❤️

Thank you❤️ I might have enough to make myself one, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to use it to make matching sweaters for her kids🥰 Maybe I'll have shrunk my stash enough my fall to get yarn for one myself😅 Can't wait to get far enough on my wedding dress to try it on!
So,beautiful ❤

I love your sitting spot under the beech tree, Oline! The sweater looks so cozy and soft, your friend will like it for sure. I also grabbed a hibernating winter wip as the temperature fell a bit to compensate the lacking warmth over the last few days 😅 How do you like your new needles now that you had them for a while? Thanks for sharing and happy knitting.

Thank you! I love being able to sit outside and knit in the summer🌳 Warm WIPs are great to have when the weather gets cooler! I LOVE my interchangeable needles! I use them every chance I get, and they are the best needles I've ever used❤️
You just gave me an idea how to knit a chunky but light sweater. I have problems knitting with sweaters actually coz they get so heavy while you progress. And sometimes feel heavy when worn too.

Yay! I have that problem when knitting with regular wool too! I love heavy sweaters, but it's nice to have some lighter ones too!
I've just knitted my granddaughter a jumper in drops air peacock. It's beautiful to work with and looks amazing. Xx

It's interesting that you like working with Air, as I have made a few different things but actually didn't much enjoy working with it, although I do like the result! I might enjoy it more combined with kidsilk mohair like Oline did...
@norwegianknitter

I like working with it more than the results most of the time😅 Without mohair Air usually loses its fluffyness for me😅 But I love pairing it with mohair!
That's fun - I also chose to start a chunky cardigan this week, the Novice Cardigan in Drops Alaska held with Drops Kidsilk Mohair and I got gauge on 6 mm needles, it's going well... but maybe not quite as fast as you (I have so many other things on the needles LOL!)...!! I was going to do the Sunday Cardigan but the neckline was too chunky for my liking. I did make the Sunday tee a few years ago in silk-seacell that is a nice, light summer sweater.

@@user-uh6jo2kc7q Alaska is non-superwash but I find it very smooth and not itchy on my skin, not like a rustic wool. I made a cable sweater with it last year that I can wear on my skin, no problem. This one is extra soft combined with the kidsilk mohair; however, I know some people find the mohair itchy. But overall, highly recommended!

@@norwegianknitter Flora would be lovely, it's one of my favourite Drops yarns, just the alpaca makes it slightly itchy for me, not bad but it's there! But then I do like finer yarns more, on the whole.

What about drops Daisy? Never touched a garment of it but I touched a ball of wool and it was very soft. I’ve also very sensitive skin and unfortunately a lanolin allergy. But with a shirt underneath it’s okay. Mohair is unfortunately also scratchy for me, but I love the look of it.
I love that jumper so much. I have made the Sunday Sweater, however yours looks so much nicer! Can you tell me what mohair you used with the Drops Air (I can't quite make it out)? I'd like to make myself one!

Please use the extra yarn to make yourself a sweater instead of her sons. The two of you can be twinning the next time that you visit her during the winter! Also, please work on your wedding dress more, so that all of the memories about the dress can be happy ones instead of stressed ones!
