Your podcast is always a treat and inspiration - I love all the beautiful sweaters between the two of you. It’s quite amazing given you both work full time - I’m in awe! I love animals too, and have quite a few myself - 3 dogs and 2 cats. However, all the dog barking is truly a distraction from your lovely show. Imagine sitting down for a nice quiet time wanting to absorb a fun knitting podcast - and at times you can’t even hear the dialogue because of all the dogs barking! Sometimes my dog hears your dog’s barking and starts barking too! It becomes, frankly, a joke. Please think of doing just one show without all the commotion - I think most of your viewers would be grateful. 😅

Aw thank you so much for the feedback and the kind words Margaret! I totally get what you’re saying and it’s sooo annoying for us too. I’ll see what I can do next podcast episode. Haha maybe the boys can go to their grandma for the day. I know she would love that!

Just found you ladies and it makes me so excited. I love they way you ladies talk about your knits it's so refreshing. There are a few podcast that I no longer watch as it feels more like a commercial on things I need to buy then a conversation about what is being knit so for me this is wonderful. I can sit and knit with my beverage of choice and enjoy listening and watching a discussion on FO's WIP's etc... Editing... just started back watching had to take a moment to get a few things done, just noticed your neckless Carmen is beautiful.

Omg, first, welcome!!! Second, thank you for your beautiful and encouraging words! We feel exactly the same way about podcasts and have and will never let that happen to ours. It’s why we say no to samples and insist on buying all our wool ourselves. So so great to have you with us!! ♥️♥️♥️

I love this podcast so much! It's really about art, beauty, craft, sustainability. Thank you so much for sharing your brilliant thoughts.

OMG! Carmen's Artus on your Rib Wave sweater is just absolutely stunning, Jackie!!! Loving every single piece and now MUST make a Rib Wave as well as another Junko and I'm just in awe of your amazingly creative beauties!

Loved hearing from y’all again and knitting with you! For summer yarns, I really like Queensland United. It’s a sport weight wool/cotton blend, really soft in the hand like wool, but not quite as warm because of the cotton. It’s also pretty inexpensive, which can be nice. I usually treat it as a heavy fingering, but I’ve worked with it on US 1.5 all the way up to US 5 needles, so pretty versatile!

Wonderful knitting content as always. I was obsessed with everything, but Jackie - I GASPED when you came out in your Traveler hoodie! Cutest thing ever. My opinion, for what that's worth: add the sleeves! It's adorable as is yes, but I think it will be at its ultimate cuddly best with long sleeves. I loved the lengthy conversation about lists! I also have had a love/hate relationship with lists. One of many reasons I love my Kindle Scribe (bought early this year) is for ease of making and deleting lists and notes. Something about failing to do a written out list is so depressing (maybe I feel guilty about the paper/trees I've wasted with my useless lists?! I recognize lists can be erased, but I hate pencil lists, and even with great erasable pens like Frixion pens, there's only so many times that looks nice...) On the Scribe I can easily delete lists that no longer serve me, or carry over part of a handwritten list that I want to keep but in a new list . . . Normally I'm definitely a pen and paper kind of person, but the Scribe really does have that same feel as writing on paper, so it works! It also makes it easy to organize related notes and lists into different folders!

Omg!!! I loved reading this comment!! And you are def inspiring me to look into getting a scribe!!

Jackie, even with aegyo's wider sample, I still see where the sleeves point upward on her pattern page, photos 1 and 7. Do not feel bad. Also, there is such a huge range of possible individual measurements within each pattern size that it would be really difficult to end up with yours looking on you exactly how hers looks on her. Yours is stunning!

I love your sweaters! Such a beautiful design, I'll have to find the perfect yarn for this one. I totally get the checkmark vs the strikethrough.

Love your list talk! I laughed because I also love to make a list of my upcoming knits.

hooray, so delighted to listen to your stories and tangents on this rainy (not snowy! finally!) morning, while working on lonnnnng rows for my own test-knit shawl (for Inese)... Jackie, you should wear more green, your Traveler hoodie looks AMAZING on you. re: sleeves, if it's for Scotland, you'll probably want sleeves. and Carmen, the red color especially in your Artus is so inspirational, i'm having to restrain myself from ordering some right away (although it sounds like your grad school experience was verrrrry different than mine!). and oh, the joys of checklists and etc. (i cover my printed-out patterns with hatch marks to keep track of rows, and they are SO satisfying to accumulate.) oh and edit: that was my comment last time about how can you knit a whole sweater in so much ribbing, and you *might* have me convinced to start a sweater no. 28 when i travel to NYC next month... they both look so lovely. and have a FABULOUS time at KnitCity -- wish i could be there!

and last thought: summer knits here in Iceland are obviously a different thing than in most parts of the world, but i DO have some Walk Collection alpaca-linen-silk blend that i'm hoping to try, in a scrumptious green -- just have to find the right pattern. thinking about Teti Lutsak's Volia blouse, but not decided yet...

I love your handspun Traveller. I think the sweater will be fabulous with sleeves although they might look great with a deep 2x2 rib. I have the Artus pattern and would love to use Sonder yarn but I wish the pattern was larger. I don’t know if her dk weight would make it significantly larger and worth the risk of the triangle becoming too deep. What do you think? Great episode, thanks.

@knittingagoodyarnpodcast5765

2 ай бұрын

Thank you Tanis!! And I totally agree re the length of the artus. It’s a good question about the dk. I think that could def work, especially if you make the gauge larger than the pattern recommends. I guess the question about the depth will depend on your row gauge and how it relates to your stitch gauge (for me my stitch gauge increases faster than my row gauge so the depth wouldn’t change as much as the length would). As well, how much of a buffer do you have for the depth, body-wise? For me, since I’m tall, it being longer wouldn’t make much of a difference but for Jackie that would be significant

When there is a knot, I cut the yarn and spit splice it together.

Apparently this is exactly what we’re supposed to be doing! Great work!! Haha hopefully I do the same next time I encounter a knot!

Logistical question: Knit City Montreal sounds amazing. But when I google it, only Knit City Toronto pops up. Is this the same thing...? I also wanted to say I just love how you two always try on each other's sweaters. It's just a unique thing you do that I've never seen in another knitting podcast, and it adds so much dimension to the appreciation of the knit when you see how 2 different knitters experience the same garment even when they didn't create it!
