    I’m really enjoying the ‘Knit Your Aesthetic’ series! I think you do a great job at matching the patterns to the different key elements of each style even if they aren’t necessarily your own! I always come away with some inspiration for future projects!

    Thank you for this! I didn't know about the Tomato Girl aesthetic. It is a shame that you don't prefer red. I think you'd look great in a soft, neutral (but assertive) red. : )

    Thanks so much for watching! And thank you for the recommendation! Maybe I’ll try more reds. The reddest I usually get is burnt orange

    Just loved this!Thanks for another great video. I had never heard of the Tomato Girl aesthetic before and enjoyed learning about it. I like bright colors and love a pop of color cardigan. Everything Petite Knit does looks great on her. Just about everything I knit and crochet could be said to be for summer as I am allergic to wool. Just finished a silk shawl and about to begin a top down v neck vest in cotton.

    Thanks so much for watching! I’m glad you learned about a new aesthetic and can hopefully find some inspiration from it. Wow a wool allergy would be horrible! But I’m glad you’re able to find fibers to work with. A silk shawl and cotton vest sound amazing 😊

    I’m new to knitting (started in November) and have made a few beanies, a few socks, a sweater and I’m half way through a cardigan. I’ve never made a summer garment. I really love the look of the love letter top by Veronica Lindbergh. Her designer photos are so great. A knitting channel I watch just made it in red and I love how it looks, but whenever I watch people’s year in review videos they say how bad their cotton knits fit and how much they stretched. Lots of people seem to say they are done making summer garments and are going to stick to sweaters and cool weather items because they wear them way more often. I’m thinking of maybe using a cotton wool blend on a tank… anyways, I’m very torn if it will be worth it in the long run. The bralettes you shared might be a good low stakes, fast summer knit to try out some different yarn compositions. Thank you for this video. It was the first I’ve seen on your channel!

    Thanks so much for watching! A bralette will be quick and a great way to try out summer fibers. I also always recommend looser summer garments with some positive ease or neutral ease so that they don’t stretch as much! I’m not sure if the love letter top has positive/neutral ease but it would help! And doing a wool blended summer fiber also sounds like a great idea.

    Loved this video! 🍅❤ also may I shamelessly recommend my own pattern, the Eggcellent Vest? Would fit perfectly into the fun intarsia category ☺

    Summer=linen. Leggins? No.
