Best decision I've ever made is getting 12" needles from Chiaogoo. They make sleeves so much easier and they have kinks in the needles so they're much easier to use than 9" shorties. Highly recommend for knitting sleeves 😊

@voleur_de_roses 4 ай бұрын

I love ChiaoGoo 30cm circulars as well. I wish more companies produced needles in this lenght. I've also got 30cm circulars from Seeknit, but they are not great to work with (I guess it's the issue with bamboo - not sleek enough).

@palakp310 4 ай бұрын

Want to third this! The row counter plus shorties from knitters pride makes sleeves so much more enjoyable.

@catrave8681 4 ай бұрын

Suggest ‘traveling loop’ using a long cable to avoid buying shorties. I have shorties but felt I was knitting tighter than usual. I don’t even notice I’m using a longer cable with the traveling loop. KZfaq has a few videos to show you how. 😊

@benjaminmarshall2768 4 ай бұрын

Speaking from experience, purchasing a short circular needle for a sweater sleeve is absolutely money well spent

@LexiMusico 4 ай бұрын

I never learned how to do the magic loops properly, and I really struggle with laddering when i use dpns, so I use shorties and I honestly love them, they end up saving me so much time ☺️

@melisadiaz9018 4 ай бұрын

I've knit the Berlin scarf already and found out that just pulling the ends to the inside of the scarf without weaving them in looks great and they just stay in because the yarn is really fluffy and grabs on to those ends. I would recommend just doing that 😄

As a fellow left handed knitter I understand the struggle reading patterns. Would like to see a video on how you use canva to manage this and any other difficulties you've encountered.

I LOVE my 12 inch circulars for sleeves. They saved me from dreading sleeves!!

@debbiedudley504 4 ай бұрын

I cannot wait to see your finished Hygge Burst Blanket. I've been looking at that pattern since you mentioned it in a previous video and I think I'll just jump in and start my own!! Oh, and all your projects (completed and in progress) are stunning!

Love how the yarn looks in the crochet squares. So pretty!

@leaarnold1894 4 ай бұрын

As always, such a wonderful podcast. Great detail on your knits and yarns. The fluffy scarf is gorgeous but the tedious fringe would stop me from knitting it, lol. You did a great job and I think the different lengths on the fringe is a unique touch.

Love your granny Square and the colors. Like all your projects. Thank for sharing your knitting journey with us.

@ic7505 4 ай бұрын

Another great podcast. I love what you choose to knit, and the way you knit them. Your garments don’t look ‘hand made’. I also enjoying hearing about your yarn choices and why you chose them. Always an enjoyable video.

@knittielynnie 4 ай бұрын

For your Berlin scarf, count the rows of the shortest fringe that you knit and rip back the extra long fringes to the same length. It's so gorgeous and squishy! I may need to make one, it would be lovely with my red wool coat.

@knittencraft 4 ай бұрын

So happy to have found your channel! Your aesthetic is very similar to mine so I'm getting a lot of great ideas. I'm mostly a (complex) sock knitter but I'm really interested in introducing more knitted garments into my wardrobe.

Hi Amy! I really look forward to your videos, a great way to start my morning. Your WIPS are always inspirational and your work is BEAUTIFUL!!

@murberdraws 4 ай бұрын

I so love that Rabbit rump yarn and wish it still existed! Interchangeable needles have been a game changer for me, but I have to say that I’ve found my wrists start to hurt if I am using both 2” needles. If I use a 3” in my dominant hand and 2” in my other hand it’s doable. I hope it works for you!

@RemedyFibers 4 ай бұрын

I’m obsessed with your Ollie sweater and the colors!! Your pillow is coming out soooo cute ❤

@EricaGeurts 4 ай бұрын

I use Chiaogoo shorties for sleeves. But I also bought a longer cable to fit them so that I can do Magic Loop!!! I found that using shorties on their regular cable that my knitting tension was tighter. Sending you positive vibes for your sleeves 😊

@user-mu5sb5rb2b 4 ай бұрын

I also just received some Lavender Honey from Amanda @Birch and Lily. Sooooo pretty. Small circulars are great for sleeves!!

@nancymorgan5505 4 ай бұрын

Your manhattan hat looks great on you. I always thought that type on shaping reminds me of the pope’s hat! 😊

@lexio.1176 4 ай бұрын

1000000% recommend the short needles!! I can’t knit socks or sleeves any other way!!

@user-lt2fp3gz3w 4 ай бұрын

The traveling loop method is easier than magic loop and you won’t need new needles

@birchandlily 4 ай бұрын

So glad you love your new yarn! Hope you enjoy the new suri base as much as I do, I'm excited to see what you decide to make!

@avamartinez1220 4 ай бұрын

I just made a Manhattan hat bulky for my mom and I’m so jealous of it! I’ll probably make one for myself as well, it’s a fun pattern.

@dianescott3515 4 ай бұрын

Another great episode! You would find the small Chiagoo needles wonderful for your sleeves. I don’t enjoy double points at all so do magic loop instead. But sleeves are so much easier on the small needles. I was glad to see your Berlin scarf and hear your thoughts on the pattern. I bought yarn to make it but haven’t bought the pattern. Yours will be beautiful , but I think I’ll look for another pattern 😊

I was excited when I heard that Sewrella had a "Bamboo sock" base, but sadly, it isn't plant-based as I had hoped. Would love the colour Marché ❤

Thanks for another great episode! :) love your Manhattan hat! I just startet one too but used Judys magic cast on for the tubular cast on - a total game changer for me!

I had the same problem with the Manhattan hat. Next time I'm going to try a 3 needle bind off from the inside.

Warning. I just did the same thing you are thinking of doing. About halfway down my sleeve i switched from magic loop to shorter circular and my gauge changed drastically

I had the same issue with a similar pattern of hat, the spur hat by Hiromi nagasawa. Could not get that bind off right.

Can't you knit I-cord for the fringes? Seems much easier. Love your sweater.

@neknits 4 ай бұрын

Totally could! And thank you!

@gmabo1 4 ай бұрын

Good morning, enjoying this episode very much. One question I have is that as you were discussing the Aurelia Pullover, I could see that you had row-counter beads hanging on the needle. Could you elaborate on your use of them? Thanks so much!

@neknits 4 ай бұрын

Happy to! It is a row counter by Twice Sheared Sheep and it has a chain of markers and numbers. Each row you move the counter up one marker, so the number bead you're currently on tells you what row you're on. I find it a little bit faster than a manual row counter kept separately, and it's harder to forget to use it!

Wondering if it is you or your husband who plays the guitars that are seen in the background 🤓 and would love to get a short view and sound of that in some of your videos 🤩

They are all my husband's!

After knitting a bunch of hats in the beanie style I have come to not really care for the shape on my head. I've since switched to knitting hats that are closer to a 1920's cowl or a modified beret.

I have the same issue with 1x1 rib in kitchener stitch. I swear I follow the directions exactly but it just doesn't come out right. I can't figure out what's going wrong.

@CassieDA17 4 ай бұрын

Do you know how many grams or yards you need for each of the accent colors on three Stella cushion? How much fingering held double would I need per diagonal half square? I love my chiagoo shorties for sleeves. I also use the 2 1/2” Lykke on the shortest knitters pride cable

@neknits 4 ай бұрын

Each of my half-squares used 8g of the fingering weight yarn held double, so 16g total for each color (65 yds)

@maryleary3308 4 ай бұрын

What is “double knitting”? I’ve heard the term without ever having an explanation.

@paigenewman6601 4 ай бұрын

it's a way of knitting a tube flat rather than in the round by knitting a stitch then slipping the next stitch in front. I don't really know how to explain it better than that, but people use it for things like button bands in order to get a stockinette look without it curling and, with it being two layers, is thicker and sturdier

@neknits 4 ай бұрын

Great explanation!

Your Ollie sweater is beautiful but I am definitely NOT a fan of the "hiked up in front" hem style, As someone who is very busty, ALL my garments are hiked up in front unless I make full bust adjustments.

@kellyharrison8396 4 ай бұрын

I feel like when a yarn dyer ĝifts you so much yarn, like arcane fiber works, it is maybe meant to use for some giveaways so your followers can give it a try. It looks like you keep all of that "gift" yarn for yourself? Nice

@neknits 4 ай бұрын

In a previous episode I had shared I would be giving away a lot of the Arcane Yarn, although the giveaway has not been announced yet!
