Definitely leave your ranuculus as is. No one would possibly know. Besides there are hundreds of sweaters to be knit and so little time. Pick your next beautiful project and have fun! ❤ Thanks ladies for another fun episode.

I would leave the sweater as it is. No one will ever notice. Thanx for the lovely vlog. Greetings from the chilly Netherlands. 😊

Great sweater! Do not rip out!! It’s beautiful and looks fine! Please leave it as is! Hugs from Virginia ❤

Love your podcasts and knits. Your ranunculus is beautiful and perfect the way it is.

@annmorris6732 11 ай бұрын

My vote is not to frog that Ranunculus! Until it was pointed out, I couldn’t spot that ‘creative’ area. I agree with many others, there are too many things yet to knit! Love your new introduction❤

Always enjoy you ladies. I would totally wear that sweater like a badge of honor. Having had multiple surgeries myself as well as being a RN caring for patients postoperative that come to the ER~ recovery is rough… and so is taking the meds, plus all that remains in your system from the procedure itself. I hope to see you wearing it next podcast. It so warmed my heart when Caitlin gave you the stitch stoppers~ it beautifully showed the love between you both in a simple gesture of a gift. God Bless!

Well, I was not sure what you were referring to with the R sweater. I am a huge crocheter and a bit of a knitter. My perspective is that if it is not huge, leave it! LIfe is too short and I figure I don't have enough years left to have to do something twice! I'd rather move forward and it will always remind you of the gratitude we can have for reliable medical care not available to much of the world. A gratitude reminder! A precious small signature making it yours!

Leave that Ranunculus girlfriend! I bet even knitters won't notice. I have yarn and needles ready for a Ranunculus. I'll wait for you two to start one. Working now on a Tankar Tee. Trying to finish some summer knits by end of September. ❤xo

Love the new opening girls! Diana the sweater is gorgeous and I would not rip it out! Just so exciting when I see a new podcast come up ..love spending the time with you both!

@IvyCol1 11 ай бұрын

The sweater is gorgeous and as a relatively new knitter, I do not notice it is missing the rows at all. I love how you have styled it over the simple dress.

@darcyspies828 11 ай бұрын

Someone not familiar with the Ranunculus would never see that as a mistake, it looks very pretty! I’ve knit the Ranunculus and it doesn’t jump out at me at all, more so the drape and colour of the fabric and the lace yoke looks great!

Congratulations on the new house Kaity!! I definitely feel the moving choas. We moved into our first house at the end of July and still don't feel completely settled. It takes time to figure out the new space and find everything a new place! But we absolutely love our house and I hope you and your family love your new home and that is such a blessing for you all and you make many, many wonderful memories there! ❤❤

@Cindy_L 11 ай бұрын

It’s beautiful you did a great job, leave it! It gives it character it’s handmade and that makes it special and unique. I just finished my anchor’s sweater and my ribbing in the top front has mistakes and I’ve decided to leave it. It makes it unique and mine. Love you guys!!!!❤

@leitesta1725 11 ай бұрын

Girl - that sweater is gorgeous!! It is a design element that you put in as a healing aspect!! I would love it and wear it as an awesome memory!! Of course, if it’s gonna bug you, then just rip it out!! 😂🎉❤

Healing aspect!!! Love that thought!❤

@PamKnitsToo 11 ай бұрын

I am only speaking for myself but I would feel like everyone was looking at my mistake - that’s just me. Personally, I’ve never made this sweater so I probably would never notice it. You two are extraordinary knitters and I so love your podcasts.

@labraknit 11 ай бұрын

I am a knitter and would never notice your two eyelets vs. three eyelets. I would absolutely leave it , especially since you finished it. And this is from someone who has ripped out whole projects. Your test knit is so beautiful - great choice of color. You might have called this episode “Ankers aweigh”. They are all gorgeous. Katie , we had boxes in this house for months and had no little ones when we moved in 38 years ago. The LYS will be gorgeous. I have used LBA yarn in Yellow Brick Road and it is beautiful, esp, in the sun. Thanks fo another great podcast!

@elisemelancon295 11 ай бұрын

Hello. Your sweater is beautiful as all the knits that you do. You should wear it proudly. It is also a great reminder that all is not perfect all the time in this world. If you hesitate, please send it to me. I would wear it with pleasure! Elise from Canada ❤

Please try the tulip etimo crochet hooks or clover ones as they have a nice grip on them… recently the etimo’s have become my favorite.

@lindapayne9474 11 ай бұрын

Love your podcasts! I really like your ranunculous! Even as a knitter I do not see it as a mistake. Just your own design element. It centered and looks like it belongs.

@chet1051 11 ай бұрын

LisaR: No , I can't notice - I wouldn't rip that gorgeous sweater out ❤ That said , what really matters , is if you can enjoy it knowing there's a stitch off ..If not , do what makes you feel good so you'll wear it :))

Love your new intro to the podcast 😊. I made a similar mistake on my renoncolus. But I live with an individual look as it's all me 😂😊

I would leave the sweater as is no one will notice it but you. I put olive oil on my swift, I find it helps it turn easily.

I would not worry about the mistake I personally have not made it and I can’t tell, everything looks like it should be ❤ we are always more critical of our mistakes because we are conscious of the mistake😊

@scraphappymama 11 ай бұрын

Diana, your Ranunculus is imperfectly perfect. Your mistake is not really noticeable unless someone is really up close looking at it. And if someone is doing that, they have other problems 😅 I just want to say how lovely and soothing your voice is. It reminds me of me beloved grandma, who was raised in WV and SE Ohio. You and I are of a similar age and I love seeing the wonderful things you knit. I especially love that you can share that love with your daughter too. Thanks for your podcast.

I would leave the Ranunculus the way it is...no one will ever know...unless you absolutely can't live with it 😊 I am 62 and only found out about the Curly Girl method in 2019. I knew my hair was wavy....but didn't know it could be so curly! I get random compliments all the time! Over time, I've tried different products until I've found a favourite....and it uses less different steps. What made a huge difference, too, was finding a hairdresser who was certified in curly cuts ✂️ ❤

Omgoodness, I so understand the feeling of missing homeschooling the littles our youngest starts high school this year. I’m so proud of all of them but I miss us gathering on the couch or around the table reading, painting, building, etc.

I'm working on an ankers but im going to do long sleeves in a dusty pink

@kayciel3268 11 ай бұрын

Both of your Ankers are so pretty. If the design element you created in your Ranunculus bothers you, I'd say rip it out. But! imho, a non-knitter would never know and it looks beautiful as is. 💜 I always double-wind my yarn cakes - It really does make a big difference in having a more relaxed yarn cake!

@alip.9740 11 ай бұрын

I tell my kids to "any many miny moe" it (however you spell that) to reveal their real hearts desire. After watching them do that at a very young age and chose what they wanted anyway, when they started to feel pressured to stick with what they landed on I pressed the point that if they are disappointed then you now know what you truly wanted. Which was the delima to begin with and the purpose of the iny many miny moe. And if you truly don't care then it won't matter what you land on. So now I have a list of projects in a hat to pick from and if I'm not happy I put it back. Who's gonna know? 😉... or care lol my knitting journey my rules.

Your sweater is beautiful, leave it the way it is. It is your modification to the pattern.

@melaniemurphy7045 11 ай бұрын

I’ve made a few Ranunculus sweaters and your looks great. The “mistake” is evenly done all the way round so that makes it a modification/ design feature. Wear it with pride. That said, if it bothers you; and you feel it screams out every time you pick it up, you should reknit it. It’s a fun piece to knit. (I would not 😉

I’ve made pillow cases with crocheted edging too.

@patriciahall8733 11 ай бұрын

I would not rip it out, it looks good as it is. For the most part no one would ever know that there is a mistake in your knitting. It looks great and over the white shirt , very lovely. Good job and don’t worry about it. If it fits that is all that counts.

@jennessweldon9840 11 ай бұрын

I don’t think nonknitters would notice but if you won’t wear it and be fine with it then you need to rekniit it. I have found with experience that if I cannot accept a mistake and will obsess over the mistake that I just have to bite the bullet and reknit.

I would rip back to the eyelets section but it’s your sweater. You get to decide! There are supposed to be 4 eyelets in each set. I think you must have left out a couple of rows.

@BrendaBeckett-ob8wf 11 ай бұрын

I wouldn’t rip the sweater out. It looks great, and nobody will notice. I knit a colorwork yoke this winter and totally messed up 5e pattern, but left it because I kind of liked the end result.

Hello! I thank you for an interesting and enjoyable podcast! I wonder what products Diana uses in her hair? Has curly hair but is so scary. Thanks in advance!🌺

@thefruitfulhands 11 ай бұрын

I use a spray detangler, then a light oil spray on the ends, a curly leave-in lotion and a mousse….whew! All of that in that order on sopping wet hair then I use and old tshirt or a microfiber wrap to get all the water out. I air dry for as long as possible and then diffuse it with the hair dryer. I hope that helps. Enjoy your curls!❤
