There is indeed a popular opinion that lace and especially cables should be knitted with light colors, otherwise the pattern would be lost, so why waste your time with the pattern. Well... In my opinion it depends on what you want to emphasize, and there's nothing wrong with using the pattern, be it as complex as it may, emphasize a dark yarn color. I think dark garments with lace and/or other texture can look extremely elegant, much more so than light versions of the same pattern so I'd do it. (I've actually planned one item of this kind, I just need to kind of, eh... complete a gazillion projects before getting to it.)

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

yes, completely agree !

@KKnits Месяц назад

Mother of Pearl, or shell buttons look wonderful with that Scott’s Pine yarn. The iridescent pearly colours look lovely and pick up that blue green color. Thank you the lovely tee discussion!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thank you, that would be very lovely indeed !

@annika9162 Месяц назад

Very inspirational ! Thank you. I really like the seaside tee from Cocoamourknitwear. It has a nice saddle shoulder and it fits perfectly.. It is a very versatile pattern. Greetings from Belgium 😊

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

yessss love that tee !

@RotePunkte Месяц назад

Oh Vanissia, I generally don't comment on peoples appearance BUT this time I need to tell you - you are glowing!! Your makeup and your hair back in combination with your tee is stunning! 😍

@jetv1471 Месяц назад

Agree 👍 😊

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

aw thank you for saying !! That's so sweet !

@sharonmerton9812 Месяц назад

I don't either comment on personal usually, or at all, but your beautiful blues eyes were sparkling brightly. 👁‍🗨😇

@Thx-I-made-it Месяц назад

The Shore Tee has been in my queue for so long - the lace is so pretty! I'm so envious that merino is a summer fiber for your climate I would need to be hooked up to an IV for fluids if I tried wearing wool in the summer. I'm living vicariously through you!!!!!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

lmao, it is one of the pros !

@zabnol Месяц назад

Very interesting video!

I love your selection of yarn colors!

@mlea79 Месяц назад

I’m excited to watch this ❤

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

yay !

@user-sn7pv3qy8s Месяц назад

Concerning color, I think you’ve got it. You can wear any color, but the light & dark wool colors you have chosen go beautifully with your complexion & your lovely eyes. Blues, greens & subtle purple colors are yours. As for black, you are full of life, your coloring is delicate, & black is the ultimate neutral. Go for it. When you are much older & your coloring changes, black may further wash you out instead of complimenting. If you are unsure about wearing all black, remember that a black tee or camisole always goes well under a blazer, cardigan, or jacket, where only a bit of the black is visible. Love your patterns & yarn discussion, ❤

@alicegroenewoud4471 Месяц назад

I think pearl buttons or maybe even gold buttons (if it’s your style ofc) would look really great with the darker blue in the roadtripper tee!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thanks ! will maybe try putting some pearl ones i have spare next to the fabric to see if it works !

@ptoste1 Месяц назад

Love your choices ! Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you! 😊

@Kera.S. Месяц назад

I love all your choices and very well explained. I always am able to follow you so easily and with my adhd that's not always true! Thanks so much 💙

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

aw that's so sweet, thank you!

@mhussey9841 Месяц назад

I made the So Summer top a couple of summers ago and it’s possibly my fav wearable I’ve made for myself. I made it out of Universal Yarn Wool Pop (a bamboo, wool, nylon mix) which wasn’t the suggested fibres but I love the drape and feel

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

Love that! thanks !

@elenabeyers2088 27 дней назад

Madeleine Tosh, Color way “Barbara Deserves Better”, sport weight, would go great with your pink yarn, I think.

@thewoollyworker 26 дней назад

ohhh thanks!

@lorishockley3891 Месяц назад

I just finished the Brooklyn raglan lite by Tori yu in 100% cotton and it turned out great! I’m currently making the twist loop top by other loops and about to cast on the Stevie Top by Debbie Bliss. I have yarn ready to go for a moon set too! Fun fun fun! Can’t wait to see some of your new tees!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

oh yes, i considered the brooklyn lite, the skyline tee, and patterns by other loops too ! So many good ones out there, and so little time !

@christinefunk3591 Месяц назад

Great round up. I live in Canada so I enjoyed you talking about the yarn too. Happy knitting.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

Thank you! You too!

@ErynnMann Месяц назад

The color of the tee you are wearing really compliments you. Your skin is glowing. Beautiful. 😊

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

Oh thank you! that's so sweet!

@janebell7111 Месяц назад

Great inspiration video. I’m happy you went into more detail on the different yarns. I look forward to seeing the finished projects this summer. As for buttons. I feel like tortoise, bone, brown leather, or wood buttons would look great with the blue yarn.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

Thank you so much! And yes, wood could be quite nice actually !

@phoenixhulsey2868 Месяц назад

oh my gosh that flamingo yarn is delicious! lol I've been planning on a ghost whisper shirt in hot pink for the longest time too! knit along!?!?

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

No idea when ill make mine, but go you! Will be stunning!

@sidneyerickson4883 Месяц назад

Neon yellow for the contrast! That pattern is on my list too ☺️

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

oooh good idea !

@evaniki1995 Месяц назад

watching this now while knitting a poppy tee :) I really enjoy it, knitting with cardiff cashmere, but turning a tee into a sweater by lengthening the sleeves. Love the poppy tee so much , I will make another one with short sleeves in sunday by sadndes garn. The other pattern I would love to knit is a Roadtripper Tee by Ozetta, but still thinking how to shape the sleeves better in that pattern (I don't like that the sleeves are pointing diagonally outwards). So once I figure out how to make the short rows in the sleeves, I ll make that one as well.

@sharonmerton9812 Месяц назад

Wonderful watching and viewing thanks Vanissia, whilst knitting away on a Hanstholm sweater for adult son in the near winter here - NZ. Thanks for your great review of the Tees 🥰😃

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

ahh this is on my list ! hopefully before next year lol

@TSUNAMI-MAMI Месяц назад

Loving that Moonset tee!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thanks!

@estrachan6103 Месяц назад

I would recommend the abelone shell buttons

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thanks!

@geenanyc Месяц назад

Hi Vanissia, I was so sad I missed the knit chat on discord (2 minutes after went on, it finished, totally my fault), next time I will put it on my calendar! About Line, I must say I love it, haven't tried Tynn Line, but I guess it is the same. It feels a bit rough at the beginning but then just settles in. It is breathable and I can wear it in NYC summer with very high humidity and 30+°C, You put it on a mesh bag and throw it in the washing machine, it is magic! . Fiber for Tees is about where you live, I can't wear any merino/alpaca/cashmere from May to August sometimes September too. About black color, I think you can totally wear it, with your nice hair color and blue eyes, STUNNIG!!

@txbarnldy Месяц назад

I think wood buttons would be lovely with that tee. Nice podcast!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thank you!

@alliehabib1654 Месяц назад

Have you seen the Tolsta tee by the creabea? There is soon to be a KAL as she is releasing some more variations to the pattern

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

yes, a little too plain for me but maybe the fingering weight with some handdyed !

@gaelle916 Месяц назад

Hi Vanissia. Thanks a lot for the video and the inspiration. I think Scots Pine would work great as a contrast colour for the Colour Tip tee. I love your colour choices. Stardust and Flamingo are amazing.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thank you!

@JenniferRoughOut Месяц назад

Thanks for the great video! So so so much inspiration 🤩 for the KFO pure silk, if you’re looking to replace the poet tee with another Sari Nordlund pattern, I saw that she’ll be releasing a Rococo Raglan Tee in June. I think it would be stunning in black and it uses just one strand of the pure silk. ☺️

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

oh yes very good call!

@yellowblue3337 Месяц назад

Hi Vanissia! Thank you for this roundup

@Wearewoolpeople Месяц назад

Hi Vanissia, I love watching your podcast. There is an authenticity about you and originality in your thought process that makes your channel so appealing to me .. anyway, I have an idea for your KFO silk - have you seen the HeatWave Set on rav? The pattern is a bundle with three lace garments in it - a tank, a tee and a cardi. The pattern sample is black and others have made it in the KFO silk. Can recommend the tee, I made one in cotton and wear it all the time in summer in Australia.. thank you for your content 🙏

@ajborthwick7239 Месяц назад

I have the colour tip tee, poppy tee and the shore tees on my summer list:)

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

great choices, hehe

@marleneknits Месяц назад

the mojave color looks stunning! 🩵 great plans 😊 when I knitted the anker summer blouse I didn’t add short rows and I also wouldn’t recommend really it, since it’s already relatively low in the front and since the neck opens up a bit more with wear i’ve never wished that I had added them, just as an fyi!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thank you for the tip !! The neckline does look quite vide like you say ! My palme tee also stretched out a lot at the neck with drops belle

@helenstill2292 14 дней назад

Have you considered paua /abalone shell buttons to go with your scots pine kinross 4 ply. Enjoyed your tee and yarn picks, always good to hear peoples views on how alternative yarns will or will not work.

@thewoollyworker 13 дней назад

oh very good recommendation!

@elianaalfonso7703 Месяц назад

For the buttons for your Henley, I would use the back of pearl buttons, that is the dark side. I don’t think you want a high contrast button. And you look totally golden today! Just lovely

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

oh yes, very good idea ! and thank you, the lighting was good, haha

@ryahparkhurst384 Месяц назад

I think the lace Sari Nordlund tee would be so beautiful if you have enough yardage! You could always knit the fingering weight Tolsta tee by the Creabea in the yarn because that pattern is a bit of a yarn eater. Also, the reason why the drops belle is scratchy to you is because of the linen. Linen softens a lot as you wear it, so if the line seems scratchy it should eventually soften!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

good tip ! Will see if it gets better this summer then !

@linneakosir809 Месяц назад

This was perfect inspo! I also bought Stardust from Zakami, so so pretty 😍 I think there's a lot of button options for the roadtripper tee, maybe gold or silver for a bit more of a dressed up look? Or black or wood for a more "casual" look? I hope that makes sense 😅

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

ahh how fun! Any plans for yours? And thanks for the ideas !

@linneakosir809 Месяц назад

@thewoollyworker I'm thinking about doing the Mellow Puff top, the shoulder/sleeve construction looks fun! Also I'm a sucker for puffy sleeves 😁

@jillmundy4121 Месяц назад

I made the Anker’s Summer Shirt last year and I love it! I used an old Rowan cotton yarn from my stash and it fits really nicely. Another suggestion for you that I have just finished this year is the Pyramid n the Round by Minimi Knit Design. It features twisted rib and I really enjoyed knitting it. I used Wool Dreamers Saona - it is so soft and easy to wear. Happy knitting!

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

Sounds great! thanks for sharing :D

@Glaleria Месяц назад

I am knitting the shore tee while watching this 😆

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

oh fun!

@joanmather7218 Месяц назад

I enjoyed the video. I made the Moonset Slipover and really like that V neck design. For the Roadtripper I would go with blue buttons that mesh/coordinate well with your yarn color. I find that the eye is drawn to contrasting buttons, emphasis being on the buttons instead of the knit.

@jetv1471 Месяц назад

Good tip !

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

I agree! Something that's maybe more useful than decorative !

@gracec.4399 Месяц назад

For the Henley shirt, I would try to match the button color to the yarn. I don't feel the buttons should stand out in this pattern.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

i think i agree !

@andreaderosier1461 Месяц назад

I would use rose or mauve with your dusty green yarn.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thank you! good idea

@madelenewhite1576 Месяц назад

I'm knitting with a cotton merino with duo dk

@amyringer8760 Месяц назад

You could try the pigeon wishes moon flint buttons for the road tripper tee. They’re kind of like oyster shell buttons but with a more silvery-green sheen

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

oh yes !! just favourited them

@mr.percyknits Месяц назад

I'm knitting the anker and I would definitely swatch a ribbing sample to see how the yarn looks. I'm not a huge swatch knitter lol but wish I would have bc my first 2 yarn choices for this just didn't look good. My ribbed stitches looks uneven and just messy.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

very good point, i need to see how it looks first because i suspect mine will be the same

@evelynmcninch7908 Месяц назад

I just used KFO pure silk for a Knus Light which I loved. The textures on Knus Light was helpful with the silk since plant fibers show all uneven stitches. It does relax a bit so my top is less snug than I had planned. I've also use SG Line, not Tynne Line, with similar relaxation/drape issues. The Line felt really nice, maybe due to the addition of viscose. Both tops are seamless so that may also contribute to the fit issue. My plan is to knit something with seams next time with plant fibers.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

Thanks for sharing! Excited now :D

@ursulas9369 Месяц назад

I love these planning videos! Tees are not really on my list (yet) as I always wash tops that touch my armpits after just one wear. Not sure I want to do that with handknits? Maybe I should look into very oversized tees which is my style anyways. Regarding the Tynn Line - I have knitted a couple projects in Tynn Line held double and also Line. In my opinion you get a much nicer, softer, more drapey fabric with Tynn Line held double. I am currently holding one strand of Tynn Line with a Merino/Cashmere/silk lace and the fabric feels fantastic. Its for a stripe-less Slanty Stripes by Emily Curtis. I hope it ends up wearing well too 🤞 For the black KFO silk how about a Tolsta with eyelets? I think the yardage would work.

@TSUNAMI-MAMI Месяц назад

I think a navy blue would look great with the deep sea green merino if you need a different color for the trim. Or a grey. Pink and green also always pair well together but that would be more of a statement and high contrast.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

oh yes, very lovely ideas !

@almutbonner4031 Месяц назад

Thanks for another inspiring video. Regarding the Anker Tee, do you know the tutorial of Tash (Mostly Knitting podcast) on how to add short rows to it? I suppose you don't need this tutorial but I find it very helpful. 😂

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

haven't heard of it, so will make sure to save it for later !

@paigeridings5882 Месяц назад

for the ankers tee with the different dye lots - since you’re holding it double you can always just hold one strand of each dye lot!! (unless that’s what you meant in which case, ignore me haha)

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

haha yes, that was the goal ! thank you!

@verylikecheryl Месяц назад

Maybe you could use the black Knitting for Olive Pure Silk to make the So Summer?

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

yes, that could very well happen !

@alexandradegruyter Месяц назад

🌈❤️

@Macasmum Месяц назад

Some knitters find that their rib looks better on the wrong side rather than the right side and use short rows to switch inside to outside. Tash @mostly knitting has tutorials for both adding short rows to the back and reversing your rib 👩‍🌾🐑

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

oh yes for sure ! I've actually done this on a few projects, and did like the results !

@photogchik007 Месяц назад

Tolsta tee in fingering or dk for the black silk?

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

i think it's a little too simple for me!

@Islamhero786 Месяц назад

Hello however you 😊 India country 🇮🇳

@joannehurt6393 Месяц назад

V, How in the world do yourself you pick your yarns to go together. I have mostly DK dolls and several sweater quantities of lace, as well as 20 50grams of silk/mohair. I am petrified and need to overcome my fear. Do you have any hints. I'm the 72 year old lady that learned how to knit one and a half years ago. You just jump right on in the fracas but where did you get your guts? You inspire me!!! Jo

@thewoollyworker 17 часов назад

thank you Jo ! I get so much inspiration from other people, and save things to go look back on later all the time ! I've got a 50/50 ratio of knits i consider a success and knits im not a huge fan of, so it's really trial and error !

@susanswan6278 Месяц назад

11:16 let me reword that as a fellow Scot: '"it's baltic'! 😅😅

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

lmao

@kaetekiese Месяц назад

I would not recommend to knit the poetry in black. It is not a very easy pattern. You need to see details. I did the sweater in dark grey. I think, this is a better option.

@thewoollyworker Месяц назад

thanks for the feedback on that !
