I knitted my mum a sweater for her birthday. She picked out the yarn. She was so happy with it. But, she didn't get a chance to wear it, because she died before she had the chance. We buried her in it. What you're talking about knitting for the people who appreciate it, it's so true. And she did. I wish she was still with me. I miss her so much.

Oh goodness, I’m so sorry for your loss. How meaningful that you buried her in something you made with so much love x

I absolutely love your patterns. The best instructions hands down and tutorials and sizes. I buy each knit worthy and love all the patterns. I loved watching you talk about some of them. ❤. You have such clever constructions for your patterns.

I really appreciate your blog...it's so varied and interesting. You are so welcoming !

I love how much thought you put into making even the more simple designs interesting to knit and hearing how your enthusiasm for each one comes through

This was so enjoyable. I would love an introduction to some of your other patterns.

Absolutely loved this episode, you are so inspiring. ❤️

Love them all ❣️❣️❣️❣️🥰😙✨✨✨

I need more time to knit all those beautiful patterns, maybe I need to quit my job 😂 so nice to see how the construction works, that’s a big reason I want to make it.

Very cool idea. Loving the patterns.

Genius episode! Nice way to promote your beautiful patterns and yet, satisfying the viewer who likes to see finished products! Impressive! Love it!❤️

You made me curious about many of the projects you showed because of their ingenious construction. ❤

“Crafty nineties childhood” is everything you need to know about me! I can’t wait to cast on the mittens. Ysolda, your designs as always are so clever and well considered!

All the reasons I enjoy knitting Ysolda patterns are mentioned in this video. Interesting construction, a variety of techniques, attention to detail and beautifully written patterns are what keep bringing me back to your patterns

This my first time listening to your podcast and it was so incredibly good! I love your patterns and can't believe I didn't see out your podcast sooner. I really appreciate the time, thought, and detail that you invest in this. I'm headed over now to pre-order Knitworthy 7!!!

In love with all the patterns, my favorite so far is the Nectar Blanket....I bought the pre-order Yay !!!!

I absolutely love the cowl you are wearing and especially in those colors! I NEED that.

All your knitting projects are absolutely beautiful 🧶🩶🩷

I'm fairly new to your channel and website. Your designs are so beautiful though most are beyond my capabilities at this point. I do want to knit the Coracle cowl - I think I might be able to do that ok. Thanks for being so generous in sharing your amazing talent and knowledge.

Oh my gosh, you reminded me about my husband’s grandmother who did have a basket of slippers at the door for visitors! I wasn’t a knitter yet at the time, so I didn’t really appreciate them as I would now, but it was a lovely aspect of visiting with her! 💗

What a beautiful memory!

Most inspirational video ever! Can’t wait to see what Knitworthy 7 brings us!

Love this episode. Enjoy watching and listening to how you created the patterns. Inspired to cast on for gift giving this season. Thank you.

Thank you for this episode! I love all of them, but I found this one very interesting for hearing more about your construction techniques. I also found some inspiration for the knitworthy people in my life!

Yay I bought the last one and still a few to do! This will inspire me as you always do!

Thank you for sharing details about your designs. I enjoyed this episode!

You are an amazing designer and I regally enjoyed seeing these beautiful projects. I subscribed to this channel so I won’t miss future episodes 😊

I have also thought (dreamt) about the basket of slippers for guests. I love the Drey, and maybe it will push me to make that dream happen 😊 Your explanation of what saudade means was very clear 👍🏾 And I am actually knitting a Musselburgh (my 3rd) while watching this 😄

You described "saudade" meaning really well 🥰

I’m so relieved to hear that! I was definitely thinking of your explanation 🥰

So much fun. And now my queue is even longer. Whoops.

Fabulous video, thankyou , loved all the projects , so looking forward to knitworthy number7.

I remember Becky great to hear she is doing well

Hi Ysolda, I think in this podcast you mentioned being interested in other recycled yarns. I came across one called 'Second Chance' by James C. Brett which has a reasonable range of colours.

I can't believe your video popped up! Sometime a few months ago I saw your Nectar blanket on another KZread channel and thought oh, man, that's gorgeous, I need to get that pattern! But went about life and forgot.😑 Well it's on the needles now, and I just love it so much that I thought I'd tell you how happy I am!!! Thanks for being such a beautiful designer!

Oh I do hope you enjoy knitting them!

Lots of lovely patterns, frustrating that I live in coastal California and haven't worn mitts or cowls in years. Maybe Nectar, if I can manage the dog issue! I do have two cousins in Canada...... quite knitworthy.

Now I want to knit all the things! I’m currently knitting Nectar- it will be a wedding gift for my son and his partner. I’ve left myself lots of time- making a hexagon is a good palate cleanser between larger projects. I’ve chosen a lovely soft blue with indigo borders. You’ve inspired me to see if I have most of the pattern memorized- I’ve been closely following the chart and ticking off each row as I go which has made it less portable for me. But after 20 some hexagons maybe I have more of it memorized than I’m aware of! I’m excited to see the new collection especially knowing that the photos were shot in Alberta- I live in Edmonton and visit the mountains frequently❤

do share some pictures of your Nectar in the Knitwork if you're over there, that colour combination sounds lovely!

So many delightful patterns and interesting constructions. I can hear your love for these patterns in the way you describe them. Thank you, Ysolda. I need to get out my gift planner for this year! Stylecraft Recreate is an option for a recycled yarn. I think it is an acrylic, polyester, wool blend, 100% recycled.

@@ysoldateague It does! I just checked the palette and it is similarly restricted. Maybe the recycling means that colour possibilities are limited. However, I’m thinking the Charcoal, Avocado and Ink might be an interesting colour combination. Or maybe Smoke, Sky and Teal.🤔

This was super helpful! Love your descriptions of construction techniques - now I have some gift ideas to start working on that I will enjoy as much as the recipient :)

I love your designs, please add nore knit tutorials.

Berroco has a recycled yarn called Remix. It's a good gift yarn because it can be machine washed. :)

The Nordic motif is called a selburose, it is not a snowflake.

Thank you for all your designs and for presenting so many of them in this episode. Very inspiring !
