Honestly, thank you for not finishing the sweater in this video. I didn’t know I needed that. YouTube can sometimes make me feel like an inadequate knitter because I don’t finish a project by the end of a 30 minute video because my life isn’t in an edited video format. 😅 but this video did motivate me to cast on my next sock! Trying out stripes for the first time.

not sure if you will see this comment but…
i’ve been really struggling with my mental health lately, ive been struggling to find motivation to do any hobbies that make me happy but today i’ve been sat watching some of your most recent videos, i pulled out my sketchbook and drew along whilst watching your videos and now i’m flooded with ideas and have filled multiple pages of art i love!
you are a ray of sunshine and your videos are such a comfort for me☀️
ps, Aspen is such a cool name it really suits you!

For anyone asking for a tutorial or pattern for this sweater: This is a bottom-up drop shoulder sweater. The simplest construction there is! Find some yarn and needles that you like and knit a BIG SWATCH, like 9 inches square (yes, this is important. otherwise you might spend 10s of hours knitting a sweater that you hate/doesn't fit). Then you do a little bit of very simple math and you can make your super awesome sweater. "The Knitter's Handy Book of Sweater Patterns" by Ann Budd is classic knitting resource book of base sweater patterns at a variety of gauges. I got it from my library! Roxanne Richardson has a series on basics of every knit sweater style, along with a bunch of videos on basic design/math/swatching etc. To conclude, all of the knitting knowledge you want is available for free! You can make anything without a pattern or tutorial! I believe in you!!

The deep dives into nickelodeon in the background is fully things ive watched and rewatched because of how crazy the whole situation was

[sugarsmol]

I usually can't focus on a project unless I'm listening to music or watching videos! Your videos are perfect for me while I work. Currently working on a crochet Jester hat

[saraoz]

god so many advanced techniques... this is so impressive fr i'm both really amazed and overwhelmed (the bind off?? the calculating the number of stitches for the sleeves??? the double sleeve
really cool video as per uj its motivating but also a very chill watch

I NEVER considered doing all four components at one time for a flat-knitted sweater!! Revolutionary.

I'm working on a few projects at once, but the one I'm closest to finishing is the Long Summer cardigan by Joji Locatelli. It's a duster-length cardi with fingering yarn and I'm getting ✨tired of it ✨

[MissMEhere]

I am really liking the electric blue! It’s not quite neon, but it is nice and bright and perfect for fall/winter when everything is so dark and dreary.

As a newer knitter, I appreciate the shots of how you hold the extra yarn, needles, and project because I'm still figuring out how to do that lol

[SahbaMobini]

Loved watching your progress with this piece it's such a beautiful color!! I'm working on a granny square blanket with all the scrap yarn I have laying around. I'm over here frogging half complete projects I gave up on to add the yarn as layers. I'm really loving it so far because its so colorful : D

i'm knitting a scarf for the first time! i've not knit much at all, but i first learned when i was eight and made a couple coasters, but over the summer i asked my grandmother to show me how to and so i practiced a for a few days then. and on sunday, i decided to finally use yarn i had gotten for my birthday, kind of a weird amount of yarn so i wasn't sure what to use it for and so i figured a striped scarf would work, so i'm just sorta going until i run out of yarn. i've knit over a foot in these past few days and i've made surprisingly few mistakes.

[sobaz]

I love the color! I can’t wait to see the end result!

Currently I’m knitting two projects, one is the “Taquile” pattern by Marianne Isager, and the other is the “Children’s Choose Your Own Fungi Sweater” by Grey Owl Knits, which I’m making for my nephew. They are both pretty intricate and involve a lot of stranded colorwork. I actually ended up burning out for quite a long time and only recently picked up the pace again. It’s nice to have videos like yours to knit along to!

[Sarah-getspudding]

The knitting while not looking at it 🤯

[rebeccaboswell]

Inpired by you setting healthy expectations for your progress and not rushing to finish the sweater just for this video! Working on crocheting neck ribbing for a fair isle crochet moon sweater that I nearly finished last winter and have been procrastinating on the ribbing ever since lmao truly my least favorite part of the process (but so worth it)

[graveyardpansy]

i’m working on some colorwork crochet potholders for christmas while watching this!! loved seeing the progress, that blue yarn is stunning :)

[nurseelle]

I love all your content, but the knit crochet is so encouraging and satisfying! Definitely looking forward to the granny square tutorial 😁

[jcv]

your videos are becoming my good luck charm 😂 finally figured out a stitch that’s been stumping me for MONTHS! (and the sweater is incredible! what a color and such cool technique too)

[AnIntrovertsArtsnCrafts]

This is exactly the content I needed right now! LOVE that yarn color

[Aeremaee]

I'm in awe of your ability to knit blind!
