Hi Tash, great episode. I would def do another inch or so on the cumulus tee. I think it will work best for tucking in and also this is pretty classic design so if the high waisted stuff goes out of fashion which of course it will, then you’ll still be able to wear this comfortably not tucked in.

Hi Tash, I love your design on your Paper Dolls sweater! All your WIPs are gorgeous and I’m staggered by the amount of knitting in all of those Carnaby skirts!😳👏❤️ I’ve been knitting a baby kimono jacket and beanie for a women’s refuge and had forgotten how tedious seaming can be! I usually knit seamless projects but this little kimono pattern is adorable and very roomy for wriggly babies so it’s absolutely worth it. Knitting brings me so much joy, I love seeing patterns and designs coming to life. The soothing and happiness factors for me are scrumptious!!! Thanks for another fabulous episode. 😃🧶❤️

Hi Tash. I think another inch on your cumulus would be perfect. So glad your going to knit a half and half wrap. I'm working on the second half of mine, picking it up when I want mindless knitting. I'm knitting it with linen quill and love the feel of the yarn. I have more on the way from purl Soho to knit a sweater.

Everything you showcase fits you perfectly! Beautiful work in all that you do❤

It's very nice to knit and hear what you say . Thank you so much 💓. Lots of love from Lisbon 🥰 💗 ❤️ 💖 💕

Definitely another inch on the cumulus tee. Love seeing all your knits. Don’t know where you get the time to be so productive! I think I saw a moth flying around your desk a couple of times. So I would put that pink carnaby skirt back in its bag. If it was me, I would frog that skirt and knit something else with the wool. The colour may end up uneven after dyeing anyway.

I would go with a red color like the one panel, and would love to see a button tutorial. My vote is yes to an inch more as well.

Hi Tash! Loved the episode I too think you might be happier with another inch on the cumulus tee so you comfortably tuck it in Looking forwards to your next episode xx

So happy when another one of your podcasts comes out! I LOVE your friends from the vault, you look stunning in them! You "should" definitely wear the orange one, it is such a gorgeous vibrant happy colour, I am not usually a fan of orange but this one, and the one of your ranunculus are beautiful. With colours it really depends on so little to completely change if we like it or not. I think it's worth you doing the crochet chain thing! And yes that skirt would look lovely in tweed as well. I am inspired by it, but I wonder how it would fit me. Love the top too. The cumulus, I would add just a slight bit more, it's funny, I would have the same hesitation on starting a new ball, but when we think about it, why in the end, right? it's a lovely top and that colour is so pretty, as is the aqua one. The half an half...yes it's a free pattern on their website, and there are loads of people who have made it, with variations making german short rows instead of wrap and turn for example. I also had my relatives bring me some linen quill to make it! But in the meantime I started making it with drops alpaca, but somehow was not convinced, I wonder if it is the yarn in garter, it did not seem to come out as regular as I would have wished. I am not sure if it is because I am not used to garter, my stockinette is regular usually, or if it is the alpaca that shows every irregularity, and I wonder if it would even out if blocked...so I just stopped because it is such a huge project...I think I need to try it with the linen quill instead...I bought two different shades of blue. I also had a good experience with their customer service, they are very friendly. Very inspired by those colors you chose from that Andrea Mowry sweater, a very vintage contrast. lovely!...I just decided that I am going to invest in a very good strapless bra so that next summer I knit myself some of those super cute tops with tiny straps! Oh, I feel I resonate so much with all the projects, all the billions of plans I would love to knit. except you actually do knit most of them! you are such a speedy (and great knitter)...I think I am going to start a written wishlist I revisit because my ravelry ❤ has become impossible 😂. I love the idea of your hidden basket, so motivating to solve/finish the unfinished business! the pink carnaby skirt is also very pretty, I actually think it could be a fashion statement with the different panels of color, but I understand if it's not your thing, please don't unravel it before giving it a try with the dye! Go with the pink, I saw someone suggested starting with the lighter panel. I have dyed different clothes with those kind of dyes in the washing machine, but never woolen knits. I did dye a vintage dress that had a stain and it came out so pretty and the stain was hidden. and other things, the colour was not always what I had expected but it was fun. Oh gosh! sorry this was so long! I write a lot because I feel like interacting with your video and chatting with you😊 take care 🌸🌺 Barbara

Thanks for doing your podcast. Its a mad time of the year for senior teachers.. trials marks and finishing content as well as preparing exams for year 11. So I understand perfectly. Love the Tee but yes 5 cms or inch an a bit will do the job, especially when you move and lift arms...Go ahead ab dye the skirt. My friend dyed a yellow cardigan with green and got kind of an olive green. Your skirt will be much more even- such a nice design. Happy knitting

Hi Tash, ugh garment length - it's always something I struggle with. I think another inch might be good. Love your wips, sometimes a night tight gauge in plain knitting is just so lovely. Your overdying, I would try and dip the lighter area in first (if possible and yes it's supposed to be damp/wet) and also don't forget to add acid (vinegar or citric acid). You're not really going to know unless you try and then if it's not changed enough then either dye darker or frog. Nice discount save on purl soho - I always say never be afraid to ask! Have a great weekend and thanks for the fun, Karen.

Enjoyed your podcast as always. I hope you enjoy the Linen Quill yarn from Purl Soho (one of my personal favorite yarns). I've made the Half & Half Wrap and a Daily Pullover (also a free purl soho pattern) out of linen Quill and I have plans to make a Salty Air Tee or a Sunday Tee from that yarn, as well.

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your lovely projects, pleased you are managing a little time for some fun, kind regards from the UK , Zillah😊

You could use elastic thread around the skirt waist band…. Like we do a sweater with a large neck. Thank you for your time!

Hi Tash, Thanks for another juicy video! Love your FO (friend) from the vault! I hope you enjoy your half and half. I've started another one as soon as I finished the first one:) It's a meditive, comforting knit. I still havent photographed it yet to add it to your KAL. Purl soho are amazing, they retro credited me because I'd ordered a day before they had a 20% off sale, without me even asking :) I would dye with the pink, it will look fabulous! Please dont frog it, all that work!!! Def, add another inch to the cumulus! Ps. I recently bought a Hyundai i30 and its so so lovely to drive. I was advised not to buy an MG, just by the way.

You are so right about not wanting to cut yarn! And starting another ball, as if a full solitary 50 g ball is any more useful than a part ball. An MG here (Canada) is a little sports car and I’m pretty sure that’s not on your list of safe cars😀. I love my Soho Top but it seemed to take forever to get a few inches of garter so it ended up being my first crop top. I’m not a fan of the look of garter but somehow this top looks great.

Hi tash love the cumulus, doesn’t silk grow and relax a bit with blocking ! I’m just finishing an Anker tee in the same yarn in ballerina . Yes Yarn bowl has it . At Banyo near the Brisbane airport.

Also the Knitting Nook at Round Corner, Dural, Nsw carries many of the range from Knitting for Olive including silk and silk mohair. Heather the owner is a very friendly and knowledgable knitter.

Hey friend with beautiful sweaters in a vault! I will add a picture of my first sweater that I’m knitting on Instagram! I suggest that you add 1.5 inches to the Cumulous. 💗🌸💗🌸

Amazing Shawl Tash! Love the colours. Best wishes from Canada!

Finishing up viewing - Overdying thought: Do you have any waste yarn or leftover yarn from the skirt? Maybe mix all the dye, set most of it aside for a day or so later (I used to store mine in gallon vinegar or gallon water bottles with lids. A large bucket with a lid from a hardware store would also work), dye and set (I used to use the microwave for 30-60 seconds with the item in plastic wrap), and then see what you think. If you're happy with it, you then have the dye all ready to go! Hope this helps!

Hi Tash. Love your weekly videos. I’m also knitting the cumulus tee, but using Sandnes Garn Tynn Line. However, my progress is a little slower than yours 😂. In my opinion, a few more centimetres would be good ? 5cms. Then you would have enough to tuck in and tbh the fabric is quite fine so there won’t be tonnes of bulk.

Hi Tash loves your videos,I think just a little longer for jumper.x

I don't know if it's just me but the sound is very low. But I do enjoy watching you, I just have to use headphones to hear you.

Hi Tash Love your cumulus tee, but I think that it is a wee bit short for tucking in and another inch would be good. I have never dyed before but wouldn’t it dye showing the difference in colour still? If you wanted to do a different colour what about a shade of brown, I do notice you don’t wear a lot of drown so perhaps you don’t like the colour! Your exploration station shawl is looking amazing in those colours and the dark pink really pops - I love it. Looking forward to seeing a few finished objects next week lol ❤

I love your videos. I think you will be happy with another inch on your cumulus so if you want to blouse it you can. I am in the U.S. and would love to try the silk yarn by Olive. I would attempt the cumulus pattern with it. I am not on Instagram but I am making the Ilha by Orlane Sucche in Sea Isle Cotton. I have issues with wool and I am hopeful that this yarn will work. ❤

Another inch should do it!

Hi! Thinking it should be a little longer😊

Find a dyer nearby and see if she will dye it for you.

Love your podcast. Your volume is very low. Anyway you can adjust?

I think you need to add the inch 😊

I don’t think you would be happy if you don’t add a couple more inches. It will keep popping out of your waist band, especially if you bend over or raise your arms. I’m sure you don’t just stand around all day. 😊
