My first 6 skeins of handspun were all different sheep breeds because I wanted to see what I liked, I used those to make a Nightshift Shawl. It was so fun!

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

That sounds amazing

@elizabethhupp1073 26 дней назад

I would highly recommend the Juniper Cowl by Toni Lipsey as a crochet option for handspun. It is very forgiving for thick-and-thin yarn and is meant to use lots of color.

@christiesteckelberg8366 22 дня назад

Love your podcasts !,please know everyone waits from one to the next! ❤️

@maddyprevost6936 18 дней назад

Andrea Mowry's Shifty sweater (I think there's also a cowl and cardigan) is ideal for handspun! The textured mosaic pattern hides every slub and inconsistency, and it's really easy to combine skeins!

Thank you so much for this video! I'm not a spinner, but I've been gifted a bunch of beautiful handspun by beloved spinners and I want to choose projects that will do those beauties justice!

@YoungfolkKnits 27 дней назад

Glad it was helpful! 💕💕💕

@amandaanderson6242 26 дней назад

I love knitting with my handspun too and often use my handspun as the contrast colour in colourwork especially where the colourwork is in the yoke, perfect for one special skein. I have recently knitted the Stonecrop cardi by Andrea Mowry and used a commercial yarn for the main colour and handspun as the colourwork.

@sonyamah5444 27 дней назад

I am a new spinner, and have knitting for decades! Thank you so much for these suggestions!!They are lovely

@YoungfolkKnits 27 дней назад

Wonderful! Thanks for watching!

@onepinkplumknits 10 дней назад

I have just started spinning and this episode had so much inspiration in it! I’m just using undyed fleece at the moment and planning on crocheting squares for a blanket, hoping differences in the spin won’t matter so much for this idea

@4Luwana 29 дней назад

I see that you have quite a few of Andrea Mowry’s patterns listed, but one that I have knit from my handspun is the weekender. I used a combination of a dyed bamboo and locally grown grey RambouilletX wool to spin. I’m currently working on her Everyday Sweater, but am using commercial yarn. I have on my potential to-do list the Recalibrate and just recently discovered Layla by Elizabeth Smith.

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

That sound beautiful

I’m making the Dathan Pullover from Kate Davies with all my mini skeins of TDF 2024! 20 grams of mini skeins , 21 in total must be enough to make the pullover. Nice one for leftover yarns too!

@PelafinaLievre 29 дней назад

I’m spinning for the pressed flowers pullover right now. The whole thing. I am halfway through my contrast and almost 2/3 through the main, which is a natural merino yak silk. That is, unless I need more yarn, which is why I bought spare fiber.

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Oooo I’m so jealous. I want a finished pressed flowers cardi I keep getting distracted tho lol

@brookwillow 26 дней назад

Soooo many great patterns!! I want to make those fingerless mitts now 👀

@stinao4954 23 дня назад

Awesome suggestions. I have been working through my angora and love blending it with Merino, spinning them into 2 ply and knitting them into gloves. I really want to try the gloves you posted, they look so interesting. Sometimes its hard to spin when its 112 outside 😂 I long for winter.

@LittleShoparoundtheCorner 17 дней назад

I made a Penguono jacket from Stephan West out of my first handspun skeins. Such a fun project

@jamiethrogmorton2540 21 день назад

These are such thoughtful ideas Kaci, you clearly know your stuff. 🎉. I really appreciate you! ❤ IMHO Try the new KFO sweater with the unusual ribbing. (DRK Everyday is fine but familiar.).

@hannahblanc6337 29 дней назад

I knitted this free pattern "Tom's Crossed Cowl by Melissa Beach" using my second handspun. I wanted to still see the stitches but it also gave easy texture. I picked the needle size that worked best with my gauge swatch. When I was running low on yarn, it was time for the finishing ribbing/cast-off.

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Great job!

@elizabethmclean2413 24 дня назад

My mother would greatly appreciate this vid, she's a total knitting machine so thank you for sharing! Also, it's so wonderful to see you enjoying the ufo 3! I love the foreo masks, they do wonders for my skin

@sunnyw4148 29 дней назад

Thanks for the inspiration. This is my second TdF. My first having a Matchless and I just spun the first two bobbins on it. So chuffed.

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Right on! I love the matchless

@verylikecheryl 29 дней назад

Thank you, Kaci! The Camélia Sweater by Soumine KIM (or the Camélia Sweater Little if you have less yarn) would also be great for handspun x

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Great idea! Thanks for sharing

@tessa5 26 дней назад

Some of Stephen West's shawls might be nice. The Botanic shawl, Stony Stream and Spiraling Cables all use a solid and a colour-changing yarn. But I can't spin, so I might be wrong about this!

@Starlit834 29 дней назад

Thank you so much, I purchased some beautiful hand spun yarn and have been agonizing over what to make with it because it has to be the right pattern and something special. I’d never considered adding ‘store bought’ yarn with it but that might be a prefect solution because there’s only 223m. The patterns you’ve shared are very inspiring.

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Wonderful! I hope you get some ideas of what you’d like to do!

@Nicole-pg3mr 27 дней назад

Great suggestions! I knit up 2x Maine Squeeze shawls with a handspun/ millspun combo. That was fun and used up some very early handspun. Also used handspun in a Spark Cardigan. So many options, so little time 😊

@YoungfolkKnits 27 дней назад

That is awesome! 😎 I need to look up main squeeze

@janetjroberson2581 29 дней назад

Happy 4th of July from Swansea, Illinois.

@mjforjaz9106 26 дней назад

Thank you for covering up this so much needed theme!! I’d love to hear about your ideas for what to knit with rustic/prickly yarn.

@tacistudio 29 дней назад

I have been wanting to learn to spin for a long time, just have not started yet, but maybe one of these days. I’m so inspired by your spinning enthusiasm and these projects for sure would look great in hand spun yarn. Great episode ❤💗

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Thanks you dear!

@sewknitcreateandrepeat 29 дней назад

Hi Kaci, I have made a few things with my handspun. The St Catherine’s cardigan by Kate Davies, the nightshift shawl by Andrea mowry,, the boronia cardigan by ambah obrien and I used handspun for the colour work on my bifurca vest by Teti Lutsak. Love all these ideas! Thanks xx

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Great job!

@designbysewsew 29 дней назад

Love how enthusiastic you are about spinning! It's the best! When you mentioned the DRK Everyday sweater it made me think that the Metamorphic would also be great with handspun and a millspun. Happy tour de fleece, friend!

@summermchalffey9469 29 дней назад

Happy tour de fleece 🎉 🧶

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Yesss I want to make a metamorphic

@Backwoodknits 29 дней назад

Great patterns! Now I just have to learn how to spin. 😂 And Oulu is pronounced Oh-lu, as in Oh (My God) and lu. It is a town in Northern Finland. 😊

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Thanks for the tips!

@lavendercottagefibrearts 28 дней назад

For a single skein I think the Musselburgh is great, especially if you aren't 100% certain about the gauge you will get. I think most people already know about it, but all sizes and guages cast on the same amount, and your first inch of knitting becomes the gauge swatch which you then use combined with your head circumference to calculate how many more increases to do.

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

I still Haven’t knit one yet!!! I need to tho

@thewoollycloset 29 дней назад

I have a free crochet shawl pattern on ravelry named Cakes Two to Tango. It’s fairly easy, but perfect for two colourways of yarn coming from fingering to DK. People usually use all kinds of colour changing yarn cakes from all kinds of brands, so I think it would be perfect for a handspun!

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

That's a great idea!

@annparsons6238 29 дней назад

Thank you Casey 👏 I started spinning last year and recently dived into the Pressed Flowers jumper using my hand spun for the flowers ! I’m so pleased with it 😊So far that’s all I’ve actually used it for .

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Great job! And perfect pattern

@debcigna6732 29 дней назад

@blairdestro 29 дней назад

Thanks Kaci! I'll be referencing this episode for customers. Found a few things for myself too!

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Yay!

@GoldenHour.Knitwear 29 дней назад

I LOVED this! And I’ve had a handspun Clay sweater on my “to-make” list for months now!! I’ve been itching to get going on it 😍 I’ve got some beautifully squishy natural brown Jacob roving for it and it’s going to be SO good!!

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

I can’t wait to see it!

@summermchalffey9469 29 дней назад

Lots of great suggestions!

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Glad you like them!

@nikitinaknits 28 дней назад

Amazing selection, I enjoyed watching and knitting through!

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

Thank you! 😊

@juliamorrisey5541 29 дней назад

There are so many options for handspun, especially when using.a tonal or solid to offset it. I am working on the. Alder sweater and I think it would be another option for handspun, with a contrasting solid.

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

That’s a great idea

@knitnpurlen 29 дней назад

Thank you Kaci for the HS inspo! I recently started spinning and will keep these patterns in mind💛 Just out of curiosity, what have you made with your handspun? I’d love to see those items, I’m sure they are beautiful!

@YoungfolkKnits 28 дней назад

I hope you have so much fun on your spinning journey!
