My Me-Made Wardrobe: What I Love, What I Hate, What I Need

Me made wardrobe!
Today I want to go thru my knits and sewn garments and decide what I need to add into my closet.

Whew! I am heartened to hear other knitters admit they don't always like how a project turns out.

I truly loved this episode!!! As this being my first year as a full time knitter. My me made list is long and I am feeling overwhelmed! Would you consider making an episode of the top things a beginner should focus on knitting wise for a me made closet ??? It would be so helpful!!!! I am so inspired by you!! I don’t have the sewing machine yet so just focusing on the knitted side and I love your taste and how they are very wearable!! Help ❤ please and if not it’s ok I know you are busy!

Kaci, I soo look forward to all of your beautiful, up-lifting episodes! This type of wardrobe "inventory" is brilliant! Your pieces are ALL STUNNING. I definitely love how many shawls (and Andrea Mowry pieces) you have! Never too many shawls or cardigans, imo. So excited for your 10K!!

I just started the Sophie Shawl. If you’re looking for a mindless knit, this fits the bill. It’s a bit of a plain jane but I think it’s going to be a very functional and well used knit.

The music at the beginning had me dancing! Your Sheer V and Zosia Wrap are so beautiful and flattering. I also like cardigans and berets. Let's get Kaci to 10K subbies y'all!

I figured out a way to actually end up with two socks! I knit both together, not two socks on one needle, I tried that, and it was too tangled. So this is what I do - when I'm winding the yarn into balls I weigh it as I'm winding, so that I end up with two balls of equal weight. Then I cast on toe up, and knit just the toe box. When that's done I cast on my second sock onto another set of needles and knit the toe box. I go back and forth between the two socks knitting one or two inches at a time so that they're finished at the same time. I use the same process for sweater sleeves and have found they turn out better than one at a time. I enjoy your videos. Thank you!

I love how honest you are about the knits that just didn’t work out or didn’t turn out how you’d hoped. It lets me know I should extend myself grace when I don’t particularly like some thing that I have knit. 😅 All your knits are absolutely beautiful and inspiring ❤

I want to start seeing garments again but I’m telling myself that I need to knit a few sweater quantities of yarn first. Everything you do is gorgeous!

[brookwillow]

I loved this so much! Now I have so many more projects to add to my queue 😊 I especially want to make those sew liberated pants they look so comfy and cool and perfect to pair with a knit sweater!

The Field Day Cardigan by Ozetta is a great everyday cardigan. I've been wearing mine sooo much since I knit it.

Hi there. I just found your channel and I’m loving it and I’ve subscribed. Going to be enjoying watching all the videos I’ve missed. I do have a question. In this video, the last shawl you made with the foxy lady yarn (bandana something) I looked it up and it says it’s fingering weight. Is that sock yarn? I have two skeins of beautiful sock yarn I’d like to make what you made. I’m hoping it’s enough and that it’ll look like yours. What needle size did you use? I just love yours. 😊

Okay I have a serious question: how do you balance wearing your handknits with your everyday farm life? I have a hard time wearing mine to the playground!

Hello, this is the first time I watch you on Youtube. First of all; you are gorgeous. You emanate serenity, class and creativity. I have been creating for many years. I wish to be more sustainable in the new year and will focus more on a me-made wardrobe (which led me to your channel). I will definitely subscribe for more inspiration. My favorites; shawls and cross over/tie cardigans.

[MsJordieLynn]

I find your videos so inspiring! Your work is so beautiful. What is one piece of advice you would give to a new knitter? Also, what type of project would you suggest someone just learning to knit to begin with?

I have issues with yokes sweaters as well. I'm a small boned big gal with bosoms for days. I usually got for minimal to negative ease around the bust just so I'm not swimming across the shoulders. I love seamless sweaters but I always have to play with the pattern (read frog and re-frog) when I make them for myself.

What a beautiful collection of knits! I love sock and shawl knitting best, but am trying to boost up my sweaters. Thinking of vests now, too. And no sleeve island with those lol

[lynnmcentire]

Girl! I have 2 over the door shoe holder with my shawls. Each pocket has at least 2. I recently found a box with 4 finished shawls that need to be blocked 😳
