Summer isn't my favorite season but I do so enjoy my flower planters on the deck and walking in soft warm air, and of course biking, as I did this week in Victoria, B.C. Canada, alongside the ocean with a friend. Come to think of it, summer is pretty good! My summer knit this year was a Ranunculus in Berrocco Vintage which I love and am now making Caitlyn Hunter's latest long-sleeve striped sweater in plant fibres (sorry forget the name!). Beth, I loved seeing your new knits and patterns - so inspiring - thank you so much!!

Hey Beth! Enjoyed the quickie, lol! Your Trunk Island Tank looks so wonderful... pondering a purchase, and seeing that I have lots of yarn options in stash. Also that Agave really does look so pretty and very versatile for wearing - i like your sleeveless version - that might have to go in my purchases as well! Enjoy your air conditioning - your views are so pretty... that Royal Poinciana is such a treat for the eyes. 😍 Have fun planning your upcoming journeys. Cheers, Judith 💜💚

I am smitten with Sargasso already! Love the thought of a summer version, maybe in Coast? Putting a placeholder in my queue for this one and the Colorwork Vest!! 😍 Thank you again for the lovely stroll. Are the Royal Poinciana fragrant? The hibiscus sure caught my eye too. It’s my favorite along with orchids. Looking forward to the next chat in a couple of weeks. 🥰

@bethmacdonaldstone 11 күн бұрын

That's a great idea! Maybe even Line so you wouldn't have to hold double to get gauge? The Poinciana's aren't fragrant. I think technically their flowers are in fact their leaves, but what gorgeous leaves they are!!!!

Beth, I always love your podcast and want to knit all your tops. I am a newer knitter. I have knit a Tank and right now knitting a pair of socks. Of all your tops what one should I start with as a new knitter and what yarn because that makes a difference in how it looks good. Thank you Beth

@bethmacdonaldstone 7 күн бұрын

Any of the Bermy Basics are a good start. I'd look on the project pages for that design and pick a yarn that you think looks great. I particularly like the Drops Wish for the 12 st gauge but that's a heavy sweater and may not be for everyone. I also like a hand dyed merino held with a mohair for the 22 st gauge version too. Take a look online and go for one that appeals, its all there for you!

I was so happy to see you wearing your Trunk Island Tank because I am casting it on as I watch! I think it's adorable and can't wait to wear it. I have a question I'm hoping you can answer and that it's not dumb. :) When you are working the 4 quadrants, do you put 3 of them on hold with waste yarn or can you leave them all on your cable and just work them one at a time?

@bethmacdonaldstone 10 күн бұрын

I've done both - so whatever is easiest for you. Thanks so much & happy knitting!!!

Love the Agave pattern. It's been in my queue, for a bit. Do you think Antigone linen would work? Or too stiff? I just did a Deschaine with Line, which I adore, so I know that's fabulous for summer tops.

@bethmacdonaldstone 11 күн бұрын

Antigone might be a bit too thin. The gauge is large and pushed Line to its max in my opinion. maybe gauge swatch? Good luck!

I love your Agave top. How many skeins of yarn did you use for your sleeveless version?

@bethmacdonaldstone 4 күн бұрын

Thank you! I used just shy of 4 skeins of Sandnes Garn Line. It’s a fabulous pattern.

@lisabolliger5855 9 күн бұрын

I just love the Agave top! I went and bought the pattern. Do you think it could be knit in a dk yarn instead of the called for worsted?

@bethmacdonaldstone 9 күн бұрын

Best thing to do is to knit a gauge swatch. Its a pretty open gauge which is lovely but you have to be sure you like the fabric. Good luck & happy swatching!
