Wow! Big numbers -congratulations! I have been trying to make some summer knits and have started and ripped out several things- gauge issues, not enough yarn-sigh! I was living the Agave, but have to try again with more yarn. Now summer is almost over so I may just move to a fall knit. So socks are on the needles while I make up my mind. My favourite knit-hmm! I would have to say some of my little hooded baby sweaters that I have been making for over 40 years have been great fun and a challenge, as I try to change it up and make colourwork, graphs, texture and different yarns-some have been little masterpieces (some I just scrap-lol).
As a quilter I understand your wanting to work & try to finish quilt as quickly as possible. I'm enjoying my knitting journey. I'll need to keep an eye open for New Mexico retreat.
Love your podcast! Working on Gully by Lisa Richardson. First experience with Mosaic and using Rowan Felted Tweed. Really enjoying how pattern unfolds. Take care Vicki Zaharko from Calgary
I am currently working on a colorwork sweater, and a patterned sock. I enjoy sock making and my mother wears them daily. She loves all colors. Thank you for showing your projects. Thanks for answering the question about magic knots…
Thank you Selma for another lovely episode! You are a such good company while I alter the hem on some pants, a kinda boring job! I’d rather be applying the icord edge to the neck of my Dappled Lace Tee. It will be finished then an d I I’ll wear it before the weather changes here in Vermont. Best of luck with the dog! I couldn’t imagine life without one! Best, Catherine
Hi Selma. I'm sure I'm going to be too late to be entered for the Giveaway, as I'm rather late watching this. I'm still catching up on podcasts as I was watching as much of the Olympics as I could possibly manage! Last weekend I fell and broke my wrist so now I'm going to be unable to knit until my plaster cast comes off, which makes me rather unhappy, but I'd just like to say that I have always loved your podcasts and have watched from Day 1. Was that really 7 years ago?? Unbelievable. And..... I also own a Golden Retriever, who is sadly in his dotage now as he is over 11 years old. You will absolutely love being owners of one - your life will be turned around but you will get to know the most incredible love and affection from a very intelligent and beautiful dog. Lucky you! xx And congratulations on 25,000.
Congratulations on reaching 25k🎉 I understand the obsession about getting a sewing project done! I love your quilt looking forward to seeing it done. My favourite knit is my Mika slipover, I love the colour the shape and how it fits my wardrobe so easily.
Lovely podcast! Love that it’s a little bit of everything, not just knitting. My favorite make is probably whatever I’m working on at the moment. Although I do have some super cably knits I’m really pleased with. Currently I’m working on a hoodie (Vinteranorakk by Klompelompe) that has a lot of cool little details, so I’m very pleased with that even though the majority is stockinette.
Congratulations🎉🎉🎉 I am currently knitting simple arrow shawl that I want to finishe by the end of the month, because in September I would like to focus on finishing patchwork quilt top I started recently 😁 Greetings from Europe 😊
I always enjoy watching your podcast and since you like knitting with baby suri alpaca Id like to recommend an online indie dyer in your area called Pretty Strings. She has custom dyed the suri in a colour that wasn’t listed in her store for me. Everything knit project that used it in has been delightful and her prices are very affordable
Hi Selma! I love your self-drafted top! My current favourite makes are sewing projects. I sewed a lot this summer: t-shirts, tanks, skirts... but my "coups de coeur" are my Yanta overalls by @helen'scloset in linen, my Chanterelle pants by @sewliberated, also in linen (they have an elastic waist but there is a zipper expansion pack) and, most recently, my Hope dress by @stylearc, in a pretty small flower printed poplin. Good luck with your next projects and that quilt looks like it will be AMAZING!!!
Congratulations on 25k. That is quite the accomplishment. We are having a bit of a cool down here before we get a little more late summer weather. It has really motivated me to start my winter knitting. I laid my stash out in the living room and matched yarn and patterns for 3 projects. I have started a Calliope by Espace Tricot to have a cozy sweater for running errands or hanging out. I also need to figure out my gift knitting for this Christmas. Your puppy is adorable. I hope she and your daughter bond well. Goldens are great dogs.
We have a big, gentle golden retriever who comes to our pub knit nights. He lies patiently under one of the tables hoping that someone with dog treats will show up. And occasionally he’s lucky.
Hi Selma, I am an early follower and watch your video’s always (meanwhile knitting)! This time the Cecile top in Swedish Växbo lin. Let’s go for at least another 7 years🎉! I stay tuned, regards Henny
Congratulations on 25k subscribers- that’s fantastic! I love watching your podcast & your creations are always so lovely. I’m working on the Gingerbread Sweater by Espace Tricot, a simple mohair shawl and some socks and a tie for my son for the start of the new school term. 😊
Thank you for your lovely podcast 😊 I have a Labrador and his best friend is our cat. The cat was two as he arrived and it was love of the first sight❤. Greetings from Germany / Bavaria Vroni
Congratulations on 25K subscribers! I'm teaching myself the i-cord cast on for a light-weight scarf. I'm so glad that there are so many podcasters out there that can help me. I always enjoy your podcasts.
Congratulations on a well-deserved 25,000 subscribers! I love your podcast, always so inspiring. Right now I am knitting the Rockhound Vest by Wool and Pine Designs and loving every minute of it.
Selma, I love hearing about your makes other than knitting. It encourages me to get my quilts worked on and pull out my serger & sewing machine to clothes. Sometimes I get in a rut and just knit as it's the easiest project to grab. Congratulations on your 25k!
Congratulations on reaching 25K subscribers! Currently, I am working on a baby blanket (gift) and enjoying it very much. It has been years since I have knit for little ones. I am waiting patiently for the Malabrigo KAL to begin on September 2nd which I will be participating in. Lastly, your quilt is just beautiful.
Congratulations! I am knitting a sweater for my husband - the second one already. And I am very proud of myself because of that.Its the most difficult thing to knit to a man. And I can do it!!!
Love your Pink Velvet ❤ this pattern had been in my Ravelry library forever, never get chance to knit it, but after watching your beautiful WIP, I think I should go and choose my yarn/colors and give it a go ❤ thank you for inspiration
Thank you for sharing the variations. I have a love hate relationship with my ranunculus. I like the length but not necessarily the drap. Yarn is silk and linen.
Thank you very much for another interesting and inspiring podcast. Good luck with the puppy. I am sure your family will enjoy having her around. She will bring a lot of love for everyone. And Congratulations for the 25K viewers.
Merci pour ces agréables moments, je travaille sur le t-shirt Agave de Marie-Christine Levesque et j'utilise la Tynn line doublé de mohair et soie et le rendu est vraiment très beau. J'ai monté aussi la camisole SanSe d'Émilie Luis que je tricote avec du 100% merinos de La Maison Tricotée et pour l'instant, ces 2 projets me plaisent énormément.. Par ailleurs je tricote les designs de plusieurs designers car le choix est très grand et toujours plus beaux les uns que les autres.❤
Congratulations on 25k subscribers! Currently working on the Ilha sweater by Orlane Sucche in Bare Naked Wool's Hempshaugh 2.0 - debating on short or long sleeves. Favorite make is tough! A recent favorite is perhaps the Anna Tee I made in 5 colors. It turned out great! Finally I wanted to add - I've sewn longer than I've knit, and seeing that dress with the buttons - here's my recommendation. Whenever I can I simply sew the buttons through both layers and skip making button holes. As long as I can get it off without trouble. Much less work! :)
Your new puppy is super cute. Make sure Yoda has vertical places she can go to escape puppy that will elevate some of the stress from the change. And that way she can feel safe. Enjoy all of the puppy breath kisses!!
I just found your podcast. I'm looking forward to retiring in 4 weeks and diving into projects for Christmas. Looking forward to following you in the future.
At this moment I am working on 3 testknit. Two shawls #kissthebride #blancoriver and a vest #harvestvest. Ofcourse there is always a sock on my needles and a crochetblanket💃 I love to test new patterns because of the new stitches, new designers and the beautiful outcome. Between all this knitting I love to walk our 2 year old dog Tommy (Pomsky).🐶
Congratulations Selma on reaching 25k subscribers 🎉always enjoy your vlogs. Can’t wait to meet the new addition to the family. Golden Retriever’s are such a lovely breed of dog. Enjoy the rest of your summer❤
Concratulations on this milestone. I love to watch how you do all your creativities. It is so familiair and a big inspiration❤ keep on going. Love from the Netherlands!
