I, too, try to stick with colors that look best on my complexion. Even if I knit something with a color I love but know it’s not “my color” I know I won’t wear it even loving the color. And a great way to make a yarn more “your color” is to hold it with a totally opposite yet complimentary suri colorway. So many indie dyers have gorgeous colors and it doesn’t have to match the MC yarn. I’ve held a hot pink suri with a neutral variegated colorway for a totally different fabric. It’s fun to experiment!

Just a little hint from me. I too get bored but for me it is sleeve island. What I do is set aside 10 to 20 minutes either alternate days or every day and at least continue on. I am always amazed when it is finally finished and did not see the time go by. I also have projects for different rooms in my home.🤣

My gambier is Main Color - sandy heather, contrasting are kiwi and medium charcoal. I made some mods, and had to make some changes after the fact. (Removing the colorwork on the arms, it was too tight for me and made the sweater fit funny - operator error I am sure. Cut the sleeves off, ripped out the colorwork, knit back just plain stockinette with MC then grafted back together. Quite a challenge, but it worked!) I have some Noro Silk Garden - so want to make your Terrazzo sweater, Kim... Love it! Portuguese knitting is knitting from the purl side with yarn tensioned around the back of the neck, Tunisian crochet I love too! I use it to make dish cloths and hot mitts, great texture....I can teach you Laura :) Looking forward to VKL!

Kim - I have the same problem with getting bored part way through some sweaters. I was thrilled to see the finished test of Rhumb Line with short sleeves and made a quick detour in my plans for my own. I finished mine 2 days later! I really love it that way and I could move on to my next test (a cabled cardigan for Thea). Love her patterns but I better concentrate on the sweater instead of starting another project for the KAL😂! Always love your podcast and just added more to my list of “must knits” today.

I planned my knitting for the year but it’s an evergreen plan so changes are possible. :) The plan includes gradual WIP wrap up. Psst my WIP count is currently at 7. I am actively working on that 7th WIP and one new cast on, and the WIP is over 1/2 done.

Happy New Year! I’m excited about the KAL and definitely will be participating. I was smiling throughout the episode as my 2024 knitting intentions are pretty much verbatim to the ones you were expressing. I too feel like I frogged more WIPS in 2023 than ever before. And I gifted 5 sweaters last year for various reasons. So my intention this year is to be much more discerning about color, weight of the yarns I select, fit and the wearability of the patterns I choose. I’m off to a great start and am loving what I have on the needles so far. I’m on the fence about Vogue but may go for the marketplace on Saturday. BUT, will 100% be going to Knit City Toronto in May.

Hey Ladies! First time watching you, and won't be my last - I may have a look at some previous episodes. 🤗 So much that you said resonated with me - especially the intentional knitting... finding the right shades of yarn (to have near the face at least) and also the styling that is perfect on me... I agree, that we often love the look of something that actually won't suit us, but looks great on someone else. Also agreeing when someone says they whip out a hat in 3 hours... who are they, lol. A hat definitely takes me a while, as do socks and all of my knitting... I'm not trying to get any faster, but my fingers definitely don't whip along like some, so yes, slow knitting rocks and I'm in your camp there. Anyway, look forward to seeing your Rhumb Line done, Kim! I'm totally immersed in a few test knits for Beth MacDonald Stone right now, and I, too, just love her patterns. 💜 Cheers, Judith

Thank you for your video. I could really relate to some of your conversations. In this last year, I had a lot of frustrating ill-fitting knits. My goal for the upcoming year is to be more intentional about what I knit. I plan to do more research and stick to a few designers that I trust. This last year, I was influenced by a few serial test knitter podcasters' who hyped some of my worst fitting makes. It has been interesting to now watch these same podcasters'' end of the year roundups and hear them now disclose that these are their least worn sweaters (due to fit issues). I enjoy the honesty of your videos.
