Hi Jana. I just watched your latest video where you said your washing machine broke. I had to deal with an old 18 year old washer where the spin cycle made so much noise that I thought it would do damage to my kitchen, and my daughter bought me a new Whirlpool washer that cost her $700.00 including new hoses attached to the back of the washer and connected to hoses to the wall. It works great, and I am really enjoying doing laundry now. I really appreciate how easy to do laundry now. I hope you get your washer to work. My daughter did not think she needed to fix the old washer, and the delivery people took the old washer with them to be thrown out, and she paid extra for that which was included with the $700.00. My 18 year old dryer still works really good. Take Care. 😊

Yes I'm taking part for the thirth time. Made the Twist and Turns and the Geogradient. You're learining so much about knitting the shawls In my opinion Stephen is a great designer and a good teacher. Love your vlogs so much. Have a great weekend.

This will be my third MKAL. I think S.W. is one of the most talented teachers. I think his MKALs are such a cool experience and as you said, a great opportunity to learn new skills.

Hi Jana. I am finishing doing a scarf for a 911 Emergency Dispatcher who has been friendly to me through the years who asked me to knit him one. I have been working on it with Fisherman’s wool in dark brown and oatmeal colors. I think he will like it and appreciate it. Take Care. 😊

They are all definitely a work of art… It’s been a few years now since I have participated in Steven’s MKAL … I am always amazed by the finished shawl… and the detail of each person’s work.He is a great teacher! :) blessings and happy knitting!

I love your shawls. My sister and I started the Twists And Turns and only finished the first part. Since we didn't do last year we are trying again now.wish we could sit and knit it with you. Can't wait to see what he's come up with this year. Lolly and Susan in Washington state USA

Tev visi lavati ir tik skaisti! 😍 Es essmu adījusi tikai slipstravaganza un adīt iesāku, kad tas viss process jau bija pusē. Tā ir vienīgā, kas man ir, bet tie nēsāta ļoti bieži ziemā. Ļoti ērta.

I have never taken part in the MKAL before, so this will be my first year. After observing for the last two years I’ve decided now is the time. Looking forward to seeing all the different yarn choices.

[dimino]

You have inspired me with your shawls. I will be joining in this time. 😀

[HelleHjortLund]

Yes! I will participate as I have done for last 5 years. And like you I will also participate in the future. I think it is so exciting and I love all the excitement and I have learned so much 👏🙏

[Mrodee]

I knew as soon as I saw you held up your projects that you were going to do a MKAL wrap up! It was fun! I’ve only done the last two years. Looking forward to Thursday!

[rosemaryedwards]

I love all your shawls, but Shawlography is my favourite!

[Unicorn_Rancher]

I’m contemplating dyeing yarn for this MKAL. Last week I had no intention on participating. Your enthusiasm has given me a nudge.

[debracubitt]

I am so happy you knit the WestKnits mystery knit along shawls 😊

[uterick-seleck]

All your shawls are beautiful, I never did one although I would like to. But they are all much to big for me, so I watch and enjoy you knitting the next one.

[sandrasanders]
