Knit & Chat: All My Summer Knits & What I'm Working On Now

Knit & Chat: All My Summer Knits and What I'm Working On Now
Hello and welcome to a cosy little video where I'll show you everything I've knitted this Summer, plus what I'm working on right now.
I definitely had got hit by the "knitted tops bug" this Summer, and for the first months of Summer all I wanted to knit was tops! I also went through a phase of stripes, and recently I've had a color crush on pink 💕

Some of the projects shown in the video I have knit pattern for already, and some are coming up this Fall :)

KNITS MENTIONED IN THE VIDEO:

⚓️ SAILOR SWIFT TOP

💌 LOVE LETTER TOP

🦓 STRIPE HYPE SWEATER

🍭 STRIPE HYPE DRESS

💕 DARLING CARDIGAN (pink cardigan)
Pattern: Coming in September 2023
Video tutorial: Coming in September 2023

Hope you've enjoyed the video. Thank you so much for watching!

Actually, I am that one looking forward to a tutorial for the Wishbone sweater 😁 It is gorgeous and I can’t wait to have it in my closet 🥰

The yellow blouse looks WONDERFUL! Please give it another chase 🥺

One of the best aspects of this luxurious show and tell is that it really does reveal that some things do not meet their goal and that you learn from it and go on from there, in such a steadfast way. I think you give courage to so many knitters who could be scared of making a mistake or not having the outcome dreamt of. You remain intrepid and inspiring! What you do produce is just gorgeous!

[yiannatziovara]

Hi! Please make a pattern for the pink summer top. It looks amazing!

[gigigi]

I really love your yellow design that didn't come out the way you wanted. I hope you find a way to make it into something you love :)

[sineadmbewe]

Love the honest inclusion of unfinished projects - relatable! I do love the yellow lacy though! Maybe the inspiration will come back and it’ll get a second chance 😂😍

Great start to my day in the USA. What beautiful items, thanks for sharing.

[franklett]

I love how you show the true side of knitting! I think at times, we all get caught up while consuming knitting youtube/knitstagram/ravelry post, and start to think that every project must turn out right the first time, or we should only have a certain number of WIPs, or its not okay to fall out of love with a project, or we need to knit at a certain frequency. I really appreciated your openness, because I think many of us can relate :)

[andreabush]

I am a big fan . Making a hat and sweater from your book! You should do another walk through of your book for people who missed the release.I love the Sailor Swift top and bought that pattern too!

[ellenhealey]

[claurm]

HI,
I found you yesterday while I was looking for Your knits are beautiful. I cannot decide which one to make first. I love your happy and down to earth personality. I watched your wedding dress video yesterday .... so real... Thank you so much for sharing your creativity and life ups and downs. Claudia

Thank you for normalizing this process, Kika. I've been knitting since March of this year and I currently have 7 projects on needles and I've only finished 4. I keep telling myself I have to finish something before I cast on something new, and I have a whole library full of patterns and yarn that I've purchased, but I rarely find the motivation to really see something through. I sincerely appreciate your willingness to show us your wip graveyard, and the reassurance you offer that this should be fun and exciting and cherished. It's OK to change your mind and go in a new direction and I'm grateful for the reminder.

[maryannbergeron]

Love all your creations!!!! ❤I also love and look forward to your video tutorials. So helpful and encouraging.

[jamiethrogmorton]

It makes total sense that writing the pattern when the knitting is fresh is much easier. Just do it girl!!!❤. Your style and designs are unique and elegant, love them all! 🎉

[liv_balanced_llc]

Beautiful items! I love that "abandoned" yellow one. It reminds me of a classic 1940's vest. Thanks for sharing.

[nicoletrost]

Love, love, love your designs. Especially, the lace cardigan 😮. I also think your pattern writing is awesome. Very detailed but not too wordy. You are also, one of the only designers who has video support. It really shows, your love and enthusiasm for knitting.

[everystitchaprayer]

What a great way to start dreaming about summer knitting!

[DeeKnitss]

I’m in middle of making two of your designs. The stripe hype dress and the salty days sweater. Your instructions are so easy to follow and your tutorial videos help immensely. Thank you so so much. ❤

[suzanneroper]
