Jana, thanks for your podcast. Please be kind to yourself. My mom used to say, “No worry, no hurry, no jury”. I figure that knitting patterns are a guide to help us knit, not make us feel bad about ourselves! Take care. 🧶

Thanks for sharing your Mom’s words! I’ll remember them too Also agree, patterns are more a guide. If you like something, or a deviation looks fine and works, it’s sometimes better to just enjoy it and that it makes your project unique 😄 But if you aren’t enjoying it, or it drives you crazy, fix it.

Jana, your Umma cape is lovely. Leave it as is, don't worry about the sleeves especially since they match. It's a practical garment that you'll wear a lot. With that in mind, just plan to knit another Umma later on with the sleeves done correctly, and in that shade of dark blue that looks so beautiful on you. You'll get use out of both capes.

Over 40 years ago, I knitted myself a long cardigan in boucle yarn by Jaeger, which was a very well-known company for yarn. I'm sure that I've still got the pattern. I will have to look for it as it would still be ideal to wear nowadays. Take care of yourself ❤

Hope the new gorgeous cardigan went back on the needles well, without requiring too many more "boogers". You are so accomplished and I love your vlog.

I took two projects on our weekend holiday camping trip. One of my favorite sock DPs went "walk about" as I was tinking the gusset and I didnt have extras w me, then I started grafting the 2nd sleeve to Autumn Bloom and realized halfway along that it was inside out 🤦♀️; felt so stupid because I did the same thing w the 1st but found the mistake only 10 stitches in. I started ungrafting and its a hot mess. The campground was a party place w bands or DJs playing late into the night and it rained and hot all muddy 😅 So, I totally sympathize w your sleeve situation! Hope this week goes better

Just a little rip for knitting sleeves. Buy yourself a set of Chicago shortie exchangeable needles for knitting those sleeves. You may need both the red and the blue sets. kKnitting on short circular needles for sleeves is so much faster .

I'm not a fan of re-doing so will happily live with some mistakes, at least, minor ones anyway 😂 Hope you have a better week next week 💕

I’d leave the sleeves if it was me, or it would end up in a bag in the closet, never to be seen again. So…..you’re not knitting a cardigan anything at all like Amanda’s 😂🤣😂, dfiierent gauge, yarn, needle size and pattern, It’s basically your own pattern which is a good thing 🥰👍🏼 I actually made myself get outside to do a little yard work today and now I want a nap, the fresh air made me sleepy.

17:48 ✋️ I only hate doing sleeves if they are attached to a body, then you have to twist around all that sweater weight, that is annoying. I absolutely do not ming when sleeves are made separately from body (for bottom-up sweaters). And strangely enough I do not mind making yolk and neck twisting the whole sweater weight, so weird 😂 Your Umma cape is wonderful! I think those sleeves look playful, girlie and chicky, together with that amazing orange it suits your personality so well! Usually I am both hands up for fixing mistakes, but this time I think your mistake made this cape so personal. But it is still up to you, do what you feel.
