Lovely show☺️ I really enjoyed seeing all your beautiful sweaters. My husband sprays our yard with chrysanthemum spray. It takes care of mosquitoes really well it is not harmful to humans or pets. He has a backpack blower and blows it into the bushes and up into the tree leaves because that’s where the mosquitoes hide during the day. I felt like a prisoner in my home because of the mosquitoes were so bad Now we can go outside and enjoy the evenings🌸

Your squishy cardigan is fabulous! In Scotland, your little river (creek) is called a "burn" and in England it's a "stream". Mosquitos in Scotland are "midges".

I really love your neon boucle cardigan. It suits you. When I was a kid, we lived in Wyoming and they had the biggest mosquitos I have ever seen. We would always say they were as big as helicopters. Of course they really weren't, but they were really big, I suppose they still are.

I think the granny square cardigan you made before would look great in that cotton yarn. I think it’s such a beautiful summer sherbet colour, with the granny square pattern it wouldn’t be too hot. I ordered a mesh garden suit from one of the Chinese sites a couple years ago, it works great to keep the bugs off as it even covers my hair . The family laugh at me saying I look like an alien but I don’t care. It even had hand covers but I use gardening gloves . I spray it with tick repellant once in awhile just to be sure. I have a bug phobia🫣🦟🕷️🐜🦗. Have a lovely weekend and school break🙋🏼♀️🥰 Happy names day to Hubby🎂 The Lilacs are beautiful, I can just imagine the beautiful smell. 🥰

Try the heated spoon trick for the mosquito bites. Heat a cup of water to boiling. Put metal spoon I. The cup long enough to heat 20 seconds or so. And place tip of spoon on bite. The heat chemically changed the enzyme and itch goes away 😄

You could grow Pennyroyal to deter mosquitos but grow/keep out of reach from your pets. I cant believe how quickly your weather has gone into summer temperatures. Australia is expecting a very dry winter which isnt good. Here in South Australia had the dryest May on record for Autumn. Iced coffee is nice with just ice-cream and ice cubes.

Thank you for bringing so much joy to my week! Have you ever knit anything with a single strand of nutiden where you didn't have to make a lot of modifications? I'm looking for pattern suggestions if you or your viewers have any.

😄 You're so funny! All-you-can-eat mosquito buffet. 😂 I usually add mohair to the single strand of Nutiden. I've only knit 1 thing without any additional yarn - Umma Cape, and I didn't meet the gauge. I've knit a few things in a single strand of Plötulopi. My favourite one is Into the Wild sweater by Tania Barley. It's a colourwork sweater with foxes. I think thicker Nutiden colours will work for it as well.

Hello my dear, thank you again. I always wait for your next podcast. I knitted the Kallias twice. First time exact like the pattern is written. Second time I changed the back into plain stockinette. In the pattern its a sort of slip stitch ribbing and that is very elastical, but shrinks with wearing. So the back becomes smaller than the front. Some knitters had issues with this, so did I. I am much more happy with my second one with the plain stockinette in the back. Very nice to wear. Fits perfect without buttons. I think Nutiden is less elastical, but be careful. Perhaps you add some stitches to the back when you knit it in slip stitch ribbing. I love Nutiden. What about mixing one of your greens with one of your more blue tuerquiose colours? I wish you much fun. I think I will knit a third Kallias. Isabell is a marvelous designer. I admire your boucle DK💓 . There is only one colour left with six skein. When will you dye more? Greetings❤

Ughh! Mosquitoes, right? I have an extreme reaction and each bite swells up like a fried egg. Horrid. I have a device called a Therapik. You hold it on the bite and depress the button for about 30 seconds. It heats up the skin in and around the bite, which denatures the protein that is injected by the mozzie when it bites you. If I catch them as soon as they happen and do not scratch them, the Therapik absolutely works to stop the itch and the extreme reaction. Highly recommend. But mostly came here to say your cardigan is the Bomb.
