I can't believe you have only been on KZitem for 4 months. I am so glad I discovered you! A Sophie shawl/scarf with your beautiful yarns held together would be perfect. If you do make your wedding dress, please post a picture.

Your home always looks so cozy and your videos always inspire me to work on perfecting my own crafting space-thank you! I’ve been inspired by Em to the Third and I think I’d make a Musselburgh hat and maybe a summery little bandana-type shawl or maybe find a fun shawl pattern with some lace!

A pattern came to mind immediately when I saw those two yarns- the Geranium Hat by Sartorial Knitting on Ravelry which uses a lace+sport yarn held together, one being a colourful yarn and the other a solid (there is also a third yarn used which would have to be more contrasting for the slip stitch pattern to show). Loved getting to know you!! Being able to have chosen what high school you went to is blowing my mind rn. Your whole life seems to have been dedicated to different creative endeavours which sounds so amazing

Thanks for sharing, it's always fun to hear a bit more about podcasters backgrounds! I'd probably make a light tank top with either some colourwork at the bottom or using the handspun for accents on the hem/sleeves/neckline

Congratulations on the growth of your channel and love hearing your winding artistic journey. For the yarn I would make a shawl. One like a traveler shawl so I could use both colors. Socks are more what I have been knitting latey so perhaps with a little of your hand spun i would use a bit of it for some accent parts to the cuff or leg. ❤

Hey Escarla, thanks for the Q&A.I'm fascinated by (and a tad jealous of) your HS experience, haha. If you do another Q&A, I'd love to hear more about your videography experience and the gear that you use such as your camera setup, editing equipment, etc. Your videos really stand out in this space and I love your style. BTW, I found you via Taylor E Owen's channel! If I win the giveaway, I'd pair the yarns in a Rai Rai Sweater by Leeni Hoi or feature that gorgeous handspun yarn in a Jude Sweater by Lucia Ruiz de Aguirre.

My toughts about the yarns: the colourful handspun would make a lovely soft mini-scarf. And then the 100% silk skein.. I immediately thought of another mini-scarf, but a light one for summer. And my third thought was just to hold them together, because merino silk is a very nice mix. I love your videos and your appearance!

i watched your thesis video. it's very good! wild that we expect kids to spend so much cash learning a profession they have no way of knowing if they'll like doing 40 hours / week for life. the apprenticeship system needs to come back. your journey reminds me a bit of Rajiv Surendra. he's into the domestic arts and craftsmanship, lots of different interests / hobbies. only recently it seems he's been able to cobble together a real living through his interests.

Thank you for watching!! It's nuts we expect kids to know what they want to do at like 17/18 I 100% agree on the apprenticeship system. I LOVE Rajiv's channel I certainly relate to his jack of all trades mentality 💚

I really want to get my hands on handspun yarn like the first skein you showed because its so pretty in a skein but I don't know what it would look like knitted in a garment. I'm at the point in my knitting journey where I'm giving myself permission to buy yarn if I've never worked with it before so I can figure out if I like working with it. Also your channel and others has really inspired me to get into spinning so that I can make yarn like that. I'd probably incorporate it a cardigan because I've never steeked before. I've also never worked with pure silk so I'd be interested in making something too. Like one of those turtleneck bibs people wear under their jackets. I'm pretty sensitive to wool and alpaca so silk seems perfect for next to skin garments.
