I adore your sweater ❤. Plus you have now created a family memory 🎉. That makes it even more special. I’m so looking forward to the tank mal!!!! Thank goodness for everything that you do. Your podcast always makes me smile.

[dianagoldermann]

Your sweater is so beautiful. Looks great on you. Such a great episode and you continue to inspire continual. Thank you Nicole

[susiewhite]

Nicole, I so enjoy your podcast. Thank you for the time you dedicate to putting up new episodes and for creating the pattern bundle on Ravelry. I’m finishing my 2nd Love Note~inspired by your enthusiasm for that pattern. 😊 It will be so fun to see a shawl pattern designed by you!
Happy Knitting 🧶 ❤

[tressasmith]

I am excited to see your shawl creation. I love those colors!

[FibreBound]

I love your heritage harbor sweater, totally adding it to my faves! Congratulations on your work award too, we work so hard and it’s so nice to be appreciated for your efforts 💗

[emilymiller]

Congrats on the award!! It sounds like it came at the perfect time to bolster you up ❤ I remember when you were finishing your sabbatical and you weren’t sure how much you would be able to do with this channel, but you’ve done awesome! You are an inspiration to me of balancing all the amazing things going on in life.

[yvonne]

Congratulations on your award! 🎉 I am 100% certain it was well-deserved. 😊 Loving this week's finished object. 😍 It looks so good on you. Also, I completely respect your decision to only bundle tank top projects that are more size inclusive. 👍 I had to go back and look at the tank I had chosen to see where it falls.

[thebotanicalknitter]

Congratulations on your work recognition! I totally understand the great escape knitting can be when work is overwhelming or extra tough.

[A_knitters_suitcase]

Well done for winning the award, but even bigger congratulations for taking the time to cultivate your passion and sharing it with all of us. I have grown in a culture where there was some kind of shame in spending leisure time just having fun as opposed to working and striving for perfection all the time and for me getting to understand the importance of my creativity has been a journey, but now I firmly believe that this is the way to be the best person, mum, professional, wife…etc…you can’t pour from an empty cup, they say, and it’s so true! I am very excited for your shawl!!! Can I sign up to test it?!?!😁 love xx

[rosberrycrafts]

Congrats on the award. Can't wait for the tank along.

[saraheskew]

The end of the semester is definitely a world of its own! I have enjoyed the year so much, but I am also very much ready for summer.
I am also intrigued by your shawl design. I wish there were more designs for one skein of fingering and one of mohair out in the world.

[janetjroberson]

Hello from St.Louis Missouri! I love your sweater and I don’t think that there’s anything wrong with it. It fits you perfectly!

[YellowZenniaKnits]

Congrats on your hard work and subsequent award.

[CozyRevolution]

Congratulations on your award! That is so wonderful. Tank top MAL sounds perfect. I enjoy your videos so much Nicole. XxxRichalyn

[leahlovestoknit]

Please keep the belt bag content coming 😍 It’s beautiful!! I’m hoping to join in the tank top mal too! I’m planning for the Vivian V Neck, I’ve had the yarn and pattern set aside for awhile…like years maybe 😅

[MrMonet]

So cool you involved your husband and daughter! A Family Sweater!

[catardif]

I love sets! I just finished a Yume to go with a Noro Boxy Cardigan I knit a couple of years ago. I’d forgotten how nice a twin set is to wear. I can take the cardigan off on my lunch break if it is hot out of doors.

[westmaven]

Oooohhhh I want to make a black belt bag now🖤

[CraftyChristenJ]

I am obsessed with your Heritage/test knit sweater even though I am one of those people who would absolutely HAVE to match lol

[ZackAnderson_KnitKnackZack]

I’m so excited for the MAL! I’m going to finally work on the Parachutey by Stephen West!
