Hi Summer! I've been knitting non stop for 10 years and last year I totally lost my mojo. I was stressed and overtired and just the though of reading a pattern... ugh! And suddenly your socks popped up on my feed and I just had to cast on a pair of rain bow dots. And just when I was thinking that I need a fresh pod to keep my knitting mojo up... here you are! Thank you for bringing back to me the joy of knitting! I look forward to your book!

Hey Summer! The more I listen to you, the more I like you. You are not weird in a bad way! My husband builds things too ❤. I don’t even knit YET but I like “whatever this is” 😂

Can’t wait! 🧦 ❤🎉

Preordered! Yay!

This first episode was so charming and awesome! Can’t wait for your book 🧦🧡🧶

I am so excited for your book AND this podcast! I love all of your patterns!

Congratulations on the book! I cannot wait for it to be released. Also, love the hat.

Yay you're back!! I'm so glad to see you podcasting again! I really enjoyed watching your KZread videos back in 2020, they'd make me literally laugh out loud. Congratulations on your book, can't wait for it to arrive and can't wait to tune in next week!

I ordered your book as soon as I saw your email but after this preview I’m beyond excited and can’t wait for February

I learned how to knit socks thanks to your patterns and now I am obsessed! I can’t wait for your book and look forward to following along with your podcast.

I ordered your book as soon as you mentioned it! I am so happy that you are podcasting again. I have bought so many of your patterns.❤

Oh I’m excited every Friday😝🎉❤

Ordered! Cannot wait to try these fun patterns 😊

Thrilled to see you back, Summer! Love your podcast and your patterns. Congratulations on the book!!

Great to see you back here on KZread! Loved your previous videos. I’m very much looking forward to your book and your future podcast episodes. Much success!! And thank you for helping me embrace January a bit more! 😊💕

I cannot wait to own this book. Your socks always make me happy!

YAY!! Glad to see you back on KZread! I loved your previous podcast. I pre-ordered your book immediately when you posted it on IG. You are by far my most favorite sock designer! So excited about your book. Congrats!! I read Tom Lake in November and I thought it was a snoozefest! LOL!! I thought I'd really love it and I'm a theater person, but it just felt soooo slow.

I’m so excited you’ll be doing a weekly podcast! Yay! And I’m counting the days until your book comes out. Those pattern sneak peeks made me even more jazzed!

This is the best video! So excited for the book and your podcast!

I’m so glad you popped up on my feed. Your book is so exciting!! I want to learn how to make beautiful socks 🧦. I’m so happy your book came up. Your socks look amazing and so is your sweater. Happy Knitting 💚🧶🎄

Yay! I am so happy you are back to podcasting!! Also, weirdly, before your book was released, I was just thinking... I would love to see you release a book! I'm really excited. I've really been wanting to try out all of your sock patterns, and now I have a good opportunity to try all the ones (that I can!) in your book. Already pre-ordered :)

Lovely episode! I'm so glad you're back after your hermit year! I just pre-ordered your book as a Valentine's present to myself- and I can't wait for that piece of happy to come my way!

So glad you popped into my feed today! Your style is very refreshing and delightful. I am excited to learn more about sock knitting and have preordered your book as well as subscribed. I will look forward to seeing you each week!

OMG! You are my favorite sock designer and, even though I swore off buying any books this year and make use of the library, I'm now going to buy your book!

Great podcast! Congratulations on your book. AND I’m so glad you’re going to be reviewing books you’ve read. I loved hearing your thoughts on Tom Lake, I’ve been debating whether or not to read it..

I too love January . The holidays really take a toll on me . I’m feeling the calm right now .

I can’t wait to get the book. Your cheery colored sock patterns are so fun and inspiring! Looking forward to next week’s podcast!

Love, love your book!

I’m totally with you on January - love it for the same reasons! I preordered your book and can’t wait to get it and work my way through it this year!

Can't wait for your new book! I love knitting socks....always!

So happy to see you back podcasting again!! Love it! ❤

So happy to see you back here!! ‘You’ taught me to knit socks 2 years ago ❤ I’m excited about your book - CONGRATULATIONS!!

I have also learned to love January, especially for the quiet. It has a relaxed pace, less pressure even though I miss the cozy, twinkly lights atmosphere of the previous months. It is peculiar that despite the excitement of a new year and all the potential of what lays ahead, January still leaves me feeling peaceful. Did I really just write that? 😂 I love the idea of your book and am glad to see you back; I just returned to sock knitting (having been new and self-taught from a book previously) and your patterns and early Vlogs were really sparked my interest in knitting socks. I am still also in search of that perfect fit and can't wait to get a copy and see what happens!

I am so glad you are returning to podcasting!!!! Love your sock patterns and I will definitely be watching every week! I have already pre-ordered your book and am impatient and excited to receiving it in February.

A delightful addition to my watch list. Thank you

I cannoooot wait for your book release ! I’ve been knitting for 20 years, all kinds of intricate sweater patterns, and socks still elude me… and also you’re the first designer who has colorful, joyful designs❤. Agreed on January, I love the freshness and stillness of it too

I've been a fan of your sock patterns for a long time and now I'm happy to say I'm a fan of your podcast too! Pre-ordered the book, very excited to get it and so happy for you.

Glad to see you back! You are a joy to watch! I learned to knit socks from your video on SOS socks

Can’t wait to get your sock book!! Once I learned to knit socks they became my favorite things to knit. I’m getting ready to start my first pair of color work socks so your book is timed perfectly for me.

I love your sock patterns. I already ordered your book and I can't wait for it to be released in the Netherlands. 😊

I have watched exactly 2.49 min and I already love your style & your podcast. I have several of your sock patterns too that are faves. Can’t wait for more to come! Now I’m off to order the book.

Glad you are back Summer. I was so glad to see you showcased on knitting stars too.

Brilliant 1st podcast 🤩 I have pre ordered your book 🎉 so looking forward to your next podcast thank you for sharing!

Thank you for a wonderful podcast. Great to have you back. I love your January analysis! I can not wait to get your book…preordered on Amazon! You look fabulous, love your new hairstyle! ❤️❤️❤️

Very happy to see you back on KZread! Il really appreciate your sense of humor. Very nice moment watching your video!

I am SO SO SO SO SOOOOOO happy you are podcasting. I have been following your ravelry page and knitting your patterns (and just buying your patterns) for a while now - almost from the beginning. You knock it out of the park EVERYTIME you come out with a new sock pattern. I feel like you just “get sock knitters” - I love color, texture, techniques, and you bring it all! I loved the shorty sock you showed here - I cant wait for your book to come out!!!!! Thanks for podcasting - you have a great personality :)

I preordered your book because I'm new to sock knitting and it's a goal of mine this year... reading the description it was *perfect* then wondered if you had a KZread channel... and here I am! :-) Looking forward to binging and supporting your channel!

First time viewer, Thoroughly Enjoyed your podcast. Congratulations on your Book it’s Beautiful.❤

Your new book looks amazing!! I can tell that you are just so proud of it, as you should be! Looking forward to the next episode. XX - Bethany

Loved this episode, love your sock patterns and can’t wait for the book! I’ve got the Hibernal Socks on the needles right now and am loving them. Congratulations on the book. 😃. Tom Lake is on my “ to read” list. 🤞🏻

Waving hello from the UK, I have bought several of your sock patterns on Ravelry and am very excited to hear about your book and see some of your new designs! 😍😍😍

Hey there Summer, and welcome back! I was first introduced to your work through Knit Stars, and am looking forward to receiving your book on Feb 13th. I love that Amazon delivers on the release date! Your little recording area looks so comfy. (Good job Dave! )

Summer I’m so excited you’re back. I love your sock patterns. I make the thicksgiving socks for my dad every year. He loves them. I can’t wait for it book to come out. I’ve never a couple color work socks, but excited to learn how to master them with your book. See you next week. Julie ❤

Hi Summer! I really enjoyed your podcast. Your book is amazing! I gasped out loud when I saw the first colourwork sock that you showed. Gorgeous! Looking forward to your next podcast! 🥰

I'm so happy you're back to podcasting again! I just finished Tom Lake, it was the first Ann Patchett novel I've read, I actually ended up loving it even though I wasn't sure at first.Also, you have been knocking it out of the park with the colorwork socks lately!

I'm watching this podcast as I knit my third pair of "Oh So Basic" socks. You pretty much taught me how to knit socks! Love it so much. Cheers! ♥

Really nice podcast! I think it's about a year ago that binged your old videos, so this is a nice surprise! And I'm so exited about the book, it looks so wonderful!

Great re-starting podcast. Looking forward to watching along and getting inspired 💚

Oklahoma is kind of blah this time of year but have you noticed the recent sunrises? Beautiful! Enjoying your podcast and sock knitting tips!

Hi Summer Congratulations on your beautiful book and thank you for an amazing and inspiring episode. I too looooove to knit socks. It’s just amazing and I can’t get enough🤩 Looking forward to following your channel😊🎵💖

Good to see you back! As soon as I saw your video I clicked right away. I watched all your past videos and I really enjoyed them. I wondered what happened to too. So I’m glad you’re back. Welcome!

Very excited for the release of your book. I totally agree with you about January. I'm not sure it is my favourite month of the year because I do live in Manitoba Canada and it is usually cold and snowy but I do enjoy the activities of January and the no more people obligation factor. Thanks for podcasting today.

I just bought your book at my LYS today, and I love it so much! I can't wait to cast on a new pair using one of your fun patterns!

Love your videos! I'm watching all of them after discovering one of them. I agree with you on the book, for sure. I'm halfway into my first sock ever. So, I had to order your book and a pattern on Etsy. Off to find more videos. Thank you so much for being you.

I received you book on Friday and I think it is really well written. I really like your humor. Thanks for a great book.

LOVED the first episode! Happy to have found you and your book! I'm looking forward to knitting some of your socks and the hat which is adorable!

So glad you’re back. I used to love your podcast. I pre-ordered your book. I can’t wait to have it in my hands.

Love the podcast and can’t wait to get the book!

Love your new channel! I too anthromorphise (is that a word?!) everything too. :-) I suck at socks but desperately want to get better at it. I took 3 years to knit 1 pair of socks. Ordered your book and am super optimistic about improving my performance. Excited to see more of your content. Happy 2024!

Oh I feel your introvert vibes in my soul! Just be you and keep doing what brings you joy. So excited about your book!!

I just recently discovered your sock patterns on Ravelry and was so stoked to find you are putting out a book. I work at The Webster’s yarn store in southern Oregon and it took no convincing to get my boss to order it for our shop. Looking forward to it in Feb! Also thanks for the preview in your inaugural podcast. 😍

Man I WISH January was a relaxed chill month for creativity for me. As a payroll bookkeeper, it's my busiest month of the year. I'm glad your book comes out in February so I can dive right in.❤

Glad to have found your podcast. Your book was already on preorder. Would love to see you post your book tour schedule. Keep podcasting!!!

Summer this podcast totally sold me on buying your book. I've bought many of your patterns before but wasn't sure I needed a book...until I watched this. You just sold it girl. Looking forward to getting it.

Hi!! Happy New Year! This is the first video of you that I've seen, but I am for sure going to see the rest of them on your channel. I am from Barcelona and I love knitting too. I love your socks, they have so many colors and beautiful patterns!! Definitely, I want to buy your book! Also, I totally understand what you say about being an introvert... I am too... And we don't look like that on the camera, but in person is not the same... ;) Loving also what you said about January. I do "antropologize" (is this a word or I made it up?) things too and the trees and vegetable life resting in January and the resting time that it is giving to you is so lovely... I do smiled when you said we can ask you about our problems in live... Are you sure about that!?? Haha... You can be bombard with sooooo many questions!!! Hahaha... Get ready for that!! ;) Anyway, it was lovely to get to know you a little bit. XOXO!!

I LITERALLY cannot wait for my book to arrive!! All the Summer Lee sock knitting for the rest of the year…neh, the rest of my LIFE.

Great first episode! Yes, follow on Instagram and not just an owner of your patterns, knit them too! Look forward to next weeks episode! And congratulations on your book, amazing accomplishment, be very proud.

Just pre-ordered your book 😊 looking forward to reading it!

Happy to see you here. I love your sock patterns, and am thrilled to see you here. Penny Straker-what a classic designer. I am thrilled to hear you talk about her. I have knit several of her patterns. I am getting ready to knit her garter stitch pullover. I think it's the Andy. I have knit it adult size, and am getting ready to knit the toddler version.

ah im so happy you're back to podcasting!

Hey Summer! I’m loving your new podcast. Your book is on my birthday list for March 😍 I’m crushing on your style! What is the lipstick you’re wearing? I need that in my life 🧡

Yay! I am super excited for your weekly podcasts 🎉💕☺️🫶🏼

Me too!! I have so many ideas for episodes!

Ann Patchett is a brilliant writer, she “blew my skirt up” with Tom Lake. I believe she intended the theatre section to be flat and the now section to be wonderful. The daughters were obsessed by the narcissistic famous actor when the true hero of their Mother’s story was their unwavering Dad and the wonderful world he gave their Mom. It certainly didn’t hurt that Meryl Streep was the narrator for the Audible book. Congratulations on the book, thank you for sharing your beautiful colour sense and designing talents.

oooohhhh your hat is so cute, it looks like your Hibernal socks!

Introverts unite! Thanks for a sneak peak at the book… Can’t wait to get my copy. Interesting spin on Tom Lake - I really enjoyed reading it and gifted a copy to my BFF. I ♥️ cherries and make a mean BBQ sauce with fresh picked ones 😋 Looking forward to watching episode 2.

Hi Summer, I learned of you from Alex of My Yarny Corner. I immediately went to Amazon and ordered my copy of your awesome book!❤ So happy to have found you!

Great to see you back , congratulations on the book! X any advice on dealing with negative relatives?

What a fantastic book, Summer. I couldn’t wait for the paperback so bought Kindle version last night. I like to read patterns off my iPad so it’s working great for me. I’m just finishing off a pair of stripy basic socks on magic loop then will be diving into your book patterns. I tried magic loop twice in the past but couldn’t get it right then, two days ago I watched your magic loop video and got it right away. Ladders almost non-existent. Now my favourite method, (then Addi Crasy Trio’s). Thank you for your knowledge and great ability to teach. My son can’t believe how addicted I am to knitting socks but loves the ones I knit for him, his Fiancee and my husband, who loves shorties. Thanks again.

Oh my goodness, I need this book so much!! I just discovered your IG account recently and like it a lot! I’ve been knitting for a few years now and I’m new-ish to sock knitting and finishing up my fourth pair. I’m starting to think about customizing and experimenting and your BASICS section is what I need. I want to try new types of heels, toes etc. I’m enjoying the podcast! PS the fourth pair I’m finishing is heavily variegated and has a cable pattern I truly thought it would show up more! I keep doing that with variegated yarn?ever hopeful 🙄

Hey sister. Claremore sock knitter here. So excited about the new book, which I just ordered. And I’m looking forward to the podcast. I’ve always admired your patterns and adore your color choices. Go Oklahoma knitting creators!

Yay!!!! You are back! Meeting people makes me nervous too. I haven’t read that book, but often “popular” books fall flat for me- one that really sticks out is where the crawdad sings- could not get into that. I tried twice and it didn’t do it for me. Also the Louise Penney books, but I am going to try an audiobook for the first one to see if it gets me more into it.

I love the book!!! I am reading it like a novel With photos! The most beautiful colorful photos!! Thank you Summer!!!Congratulations!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
