I haven't made a vlog in a while and I know this is a little different with all of the knitting talk, but I hope you still enjoyed it! It was nice to share some of my other hobbies and not only the outdoor moments. How about those bighorn sheep though?! 💚

Wow, a cross-over of my two favorite things - hiking outdoors and knitting indoors! I would be interested in your pattern if you decide to publish. What a great idea to have a really warm sweater instead of a jacket.

What a refreshing blend of activities - nature, knitting and cooking! 🌲🧶🥘 Leaving the bustling city life for hiking and camping definitely does wonders for the soul. Really enjoyed watching snippets of your journey in the great Montana outdoors along with your creative knitting project updates. Can't wait to see more of your adventures and cozy times at home! 👍

You can't go wrong with pure wool - especially Lopi. You should try a Canadian yarn - Briggs and Little from New Brunswick. It's amazing, too. Lovely hike!

I’m an avid knitter and outdoor enthusiast, I think they go hand in hand! Lopi yarns are perfect for outdoor knitwear, super rustic and warm. I’m currently knitting a fox colorwork sweater with plotulopi. I love to bring my knitting on hikes and camping trips, to sit quietly, listen to the birds and knit ☺️

Loved your video and how you’ve taken on knitting! We can get so much inspiration for our knitting from the outdoors. Love your color combos and color work. A little hint, take a picture of your yarn in black and white. You can really see how yarns will contrast together easily before starting your project.

Have to admit being anxious when you saw the moose with young as they were always a concern when cross country skiing in upper Wisconsin. Loved this video, thanks.

This was very well done, I really enjoyed it. Those sweaters are awesome. How quickly do you think you could knit one if you had to get it done ASAP?
@amanda.outside 4 ай бұрын
The yarn is bulky so these sweaters do knit up relatively quickly. They typically take me 3-4 weeks but it depends on how complex the colorwork is and how much time I can devote to it each day!
