Hi Amy! I just melt into my chair with a project and listen ... your voice is so calming, thanks so much for sharing. I too love to have a cozy project of little attention to just grab when that's the head space I'm in. I recently made purl soho's half and half triangles, using the linen quill. As much as I loved the linen quill, it knits up a so gracefully and the colours are stunning ... but when finished, although beautiful, I find it a little prickly where it touches my neck. I still love wearing it, it's a cozy stretch and warm and not warm ... a real hug! I've ordered some different yarn to make another .. I must make another ;) Thanks again for a lovely visit ;) Sunshine

I love attic24's patterns and blog ❤ for crochet blankets you could try chaining up using a bigger hook than you are planning on using for the rest of the project. Otherwise I would recommend looking up the foundation crochet stitches which mean that you don't have to crochet into the chain as it is all encompassed in the stitch 👍🏻

What a lovely episode, listening to you is like sitting and knitting with a friend, sounds familiar?😂🤭. I am obsessed with the KFO pink daisies but it is sold out everywhere at the moment. Hope you are well❤ ,as usual great episode!

So lovely to spend time with you...your snow crocus is just lovely as are all of your knits. The Artus shawl is actually on my list of projects...yours is lovely. Your home is looking warm and cozy but, I know, it is a lot of work and energy but, hopefully, all worth it in the end. Take good care and enjoy your visit with friends!

I especially love your color choices and combinations but the white cable is super complimentary in both fit and color! I'm so awed by you! I'm just so thankful to see and hear you and always learn something new. And the Oracle readings are wonderful as well❤❤❤

Lovely time knitting with you. Your ho e is lovely. The colors are beautiful! I love the character of a home when each room is a different color. Loved the Advent you showed. The jewel tone colors were so rich. Thank you for the lovely podcast💗💗🧶

A wonderful episode as usual, and just what I needed this morning. I love the new filming location and your card today really resonated with me, especially the strength we have when dealing with adversity and the importance of family ❤

Thank you so much for another lovely podcast. Your crocus sweater is beautiful. I’d like to knit one myself. Your renovations to your apartment are fab! A north facing room is good for filming your podcasts because of the light. Artists often try to have a north facing studio because it’s the right light for painting. Looking forward to footage with Jax and Ivana in Edinburgh. They are in for a treat.

Oh no! I've knitted the Snow Crocus and knitted mine loose and over-sized, but I have such Amy-envy that now I'm going to be obsessed with your sweet white fitted version. Not to mention your gorgeous Garter Goodness. You are inspiring!

Thank you Amy! Your Snow Crocus is beautiful on you - no question about this shade 'belonging' to you. Wouldn't it just be a treat to find you, Ivana and Jackie together on your screen sometime soon!

Thank you for another lovely episode, Amy. I am sure you will enjoy the Blue Fern Yarns Advent - I had some mystery minis from Shannon last year and her colours/yarn bases are a absolute dream 💛 I also very much enjoy her podcast - Norfolk Girls Knitting - which she does with her Mum. Love seeing all your beautiful projects. Have a wonderful week x

I've always wanted to learn brioche and have looked for a learning project, yours will be one I purchase hopefully for a wrap not sure if you are going to make the pattern into a wrap or blanket or both? love the idea of the added garter lifeline! I so need that, I'm always tinking back to that one little row of all knit in a lace pattern. 😊🦋

The snow crocus looks really very good on you, Amy. Both the colour, and the fit. I too have a 'generous' bust and so many jerseys seem to look better on a flat chest, - so frustrating. But I'm inspired to make one of these now.

Hi Amy !!!! I fell in love with the Miromenils but sadly IT doesn't have my size. Do you know any other pattern that look like this ? Asking because if you thougth about knitting IT you migth know of others. I'm fairly New to knitting tops so I don't really know how to look for something like IT. I hope you had a lovely tome with your friends !!!! All your knits are very inspiring! And I love the card !

Hi there. I’m watching from Denmark and I hope you don’t mind me asking 😊 You talk about casting off your beautiful shawl. I thought it was called to bind off and to cast on. Could you please explain the difference to me?
