From Rachel, I am glad someone else understands what I have to live with 😂

I discovered your channel a short time ago and now I’m watching from the beginning. Love your knits and your joy of knitting, and sewing

Rhinebeck is loads of fun and very overwhelming. You do need to go with a plan or list in mind but also don’t shut down the idea of seeing something that you fall in love with and taking it home or you will regret it. There aren’t usually sales or special deals but being able to see so many brands and colors in one place is awesome. Love your podcast. Please keep going.

Thank you so much! That is such good advice, I cannot even imagine how much beautiful yarn has to be at Rhinebeck! And seeing it all in one weekend!! Fun and overwhelming must be right 😂❤

I agree, going to a yarn festival and seeing so much yarn is very overwhelming. However, coming up with plans using specific patterns is also very overwhelming! Instead, I look on my Ravelry pages and note how many yards I used for projects at any given weight. Knowing how much yarn I used for a DK, fingering, worsted (etc.) project vs what the pattern calls for helps me buy the correct amount of yarn without committing to a specific pattern.

That is such a great idea! We often find that we have a little bit more leftover than the pattern calls for so keeping track of what you actually use is a great idea! We need to start now so maybe next year we will have enough info for if we do get to go to a yarn festival 🤗

The Margaux Top is absolutely gorgeous and I am adding it to my "to make" list. I also love hearing how confident you are about knitting and changing up the pattern of the Humlebi Socks. I am a newbie sock knitter and still figuring out how it all works, hearing your confidence in being able to change up certain parts makes me excited for my sock knitting future. :)

Thank you so much!! I feel like socks can be kind of polarizing for knitters, some people love to knit them and some people definitely don't! Once you find what you like though, they can be so relaxing 🤗

Thank you for the shout out! It was great to meet you and your family, Rachel. We are so happy you enjoyed your visit.

I'm so glad I found your podcast! It's so fun to see your projects. I'm really glad you mentioned coast to coast yarn; I found the perfect yarn there for my next project, after looking at over 20 online yarn sites. Thanks!

We are big Coast to Coast fans around here! ❤

For knowing how much yardage to buy - I keep a knitting journal (pen and paper style) and on one page, I write down a list of all the patterns that I really want to make. I put the pattern name, yarn weight, and how much I would need for my size. This makes it really easy to reference any time I go to a yarn store or festival!

You two are amazing, wonderful finished and wip’s - love both your personalities!! Great tips for me who is more beginner.

Y’all are so brave making so many wearables in white! I’m always scared I will stain them 🙃

Wonderful new episode, both of you are bringing so much inspiration. Thank you!

Beautiful knits again. Thank you for a another lovely episode. I do hope you get to some festivals soon and can share your experience (and purchases 😁) with us 😊

I watched all your episodes and truly enjoyed your content! i feel motivated to finish my twist loop top, the summer is almost over but my summer knits are definitely not done yet!

Would love to meet you at Rhinebeck some day. I live nearby so we go every year. I used to get overwhelmed and feel the need to buy all the things but I feel like this year I am really looking forward to just meeting other makers and enjoying the energy. And the cider donuts. 😉

I’m working on a striped sweater from some scrapyarn that my kid will wear next year. Love the cami no 5 in white. I really want to knit a light coloured ribbed tank this fall.

Thanks for keeping me company as I worked on my Jennie tee. We have two major yarn festivals a year where I am and I always have a few sweaters in mind but pretty well just research what kind of yardage I need for sweaters in each weight before I go.

Rhinebeck always happens right around my birthday so hopefully I can go one year! I wish KS had some kind of wool festival. I’d definitely go. I’m currently test knitting a brioche/garter cowl in some coast to coast natural extrafine and undyed suri and dreaming of cooler weather.

I'm knitting a petiteknit sweater right now that wants increases on both the wrong and right sides.

Rachel, I love that your Christmas present was for Jessica to do the part of the knitting you don't enjoy. That is very sweet. I like your comment that you are on a summer knitting journey. I have a few summer knits that I don't wear that much and I am trying to work out what qualities in need in a summer top for me to reach for it to wear. Colour, weight, style, what other item(s) of clothing I plan to wear them with. I would like to be more thoughtful and intentional about what I am making and hopefully that will see me making things I wear more and fit my wardrobe. The tops you are wearing look gorgeous on you both.

Jessica was so nice to finish it for me 🥰 I agree, summer knitting can be tricky! I am also trying to be more intentional in my summer knits.

I am getting excited about moving into fall knitting here soon and will be so excited to see what you knit up!❤
