That Olympic sweater is INSANE!!! Woman you are seriously talented! ❤
She certainly is!! 🧚🏼♀️
Omg, it somehow seems easier to qualify to the olympics than knitting your sweater! I’d love to make the Little Star blanket from the book.
Your Olympic sweater is amazing to say the least. It's beautiful, you are so talented.
Thank you, Inga, for sharing your knitting journey with all of us; very inspirational. I look forward to your video’s. I enjoy them so much, so thank you for your time. I use to be an avid knitter years ago, and I am just now getting back into it. I am excited to participate in the KAL for the Catedral. As many sweaters that I have made in the past, I have never done color work...one of the child color work patterns in the book would be a great place to start. I LOVE their Water Lilies Pullover and is on my list for next time. Happy Knitting!!
It’s been a while since I watched you - I had forgotten how much I enjoy your podcasts and how relaxing and calm they are. A perfect way to begin my day! I absolutely love seeing your makes - that color work sweater that you showed first is stunning - I love it!
Oh thank you!
My Sunday morning is always better while watching Inga! What a great 1994 sweater! I would be S O proud of that! Laine does some of the nicest publishing ! What a beautiful book. I was on the ferry yesterday and bought a new ceramic mug and thought of you! Had coffee in it this morning while watching! Hugs, ClaudiaSJI
I'm knitting for my two great grandsons, so Making Memories caught my eye immediately. The Panda sweater would be so much fun to knit and gift! Your sweaters are amazing, Inge. Beautiful work!
I have a cousin who is expecting a baby girl this summer so I'd knit either Angel Trumpet or Catedral for her new arrival. Your Olympic Sweater is totally a.m.a.z.i.n.g.!
Gorgeous knitting, you are so talented!!! Love your podcast 🥰 I like the dear deer blanket from making memories ❤
Thank you again dear Inga. You are my favorite knitting Podcaster and I'm always waiting for your next video I don't know how you manage everything you do, with your career and this, and everything else... but your voice is very relaxing and your projects are so beautiful, so I enjoy very much. About the give away, I love Eweknit's "waterlillies", and I would love to knit that. Thank you for introducing this new-to-me designer! Blessings, Rachel
Beautiful podcast and beautiful sweater. I living in Toronto.Thank you sharing nice pattern book,loved❤.
Your knits are beautiful. Your Olympic sweater is a treasure and keepsake. I still recall all the excitement of the 1988 Winter Olympics here in Calgary. The Making Memories book looks awesome. I would love to make the Catedral sweater for my granddaughters. You and your grandmother must of had so much fun looking through all those pattern books of hers. Thank you for sharing!
Inga, your Olympic sweater is so lovely, a hat would be the finishing touch! Such nice thoughts about the time spent with your grandmother! I would love to knit the Amapola Cardigan, its so delicate looking! Many others got my attention too! What a timeless new book! Thanks Inga, for such a nice visit!🦋🌻
loved the podcast, the sweater, beyond amazing! Today i stayed home from work and watched and it felt like we were together knitting. I have several smaller projects going and today I was able to finish as we knit together. Thanks for all you share, your time, your talents, it's very enjoyable
I met Claudia this weekend at Knit City Montreal! She is so lovely! I would love to knit the Catedral sweater. Love your channel. So inspiring. Thankyou for all the time you spend. 🥰🥰
Your Olympic sweater is gorgeous. You inspire me to become a better knitter.
Totally inspired by your Olympic sweater! And also glad you have loom, I have the same one and I’ve never gotten it out of the box yet!! Im sure you’ll inspire me in weaving too!! I can’t wait to see you in the catedral sweater very elegant.
Thank you for the introduction to Eweknits. I hadn’t heard of them before. I went to the website and found the beautiful Amapola Cardigan pattern. I can’t wait to knit it. Your Lillehammer sweater is beautiful. I have one in 90s colors, cream, pink and teal. It’s fun but I prefer your traditional colors. It looks great on you! ❤
I love your podcasts. You inspire me every time and my list of future knits gets longer and longer. Thanks for showing the book making memories, I fell in love with the Lica cardigan. It would be lovely on my kid.
Love the Olympic sweater! It is stunning, and it fits you perfectly. Good job! I had never heard of EWEKNIT before, so thank you for the introduction. My favorite pattern is the Water Lilies pullover and cardigan. I have been searching for a cardigan pattern, and I believe this is it!!!
Every time you mention your half and half wrap I feel inspired to cast it on😍 I already have a shawl on my needles so once again I’ll have to wait The Olympic sweater came out so awesome!!! Fits your perfectly and the colorwork is so stunning
Love, love, love the Lillehammer Olympic sweater! I've been eyeing that sweater for more years than I care to think about! I may even have the original pattern in my stash 🙂 As for the EweKnits - I think the Florencia Pullover would be lovely to knit.. I look forward to all of your podcasts! Thank you!
Decision fatigue, yep it’s a thing. I discovered it while remodeling my home over the past few years! Your thought process is always clear and it certainly yields great results, even when you’re tired of making decisions! 😂
The Angelou Pullover has caught my eye several times. It would be so wonderful to make it! Your Olympic sweater is beautiful! I’m very tempted to go look up the one for the year I was born and see about knitting it. 😍
Coral Pullover is so lovely, and that's the one I would choose to knit for myself. I loved the Talvinen you're knitting, and so many other beautiful projects. thanks for charing 🙂
Wow, wow, wow!!!! You are so talented and incredibly patient!!! That Olympic sweater is mind blowing! Congratulations, the sense of achievement must be huge! 👏👏🏆 I would adore to knit the Kaleidoscope children’s sweater as I love seeing colourwork come to life when I’m knitting. 😃
Incredible work on your Olympic Sweater! 🤩🤩 My partner is the knitter and I'm always watching with her - love the podcast! She's really likes the Ariel Pullover!!
Norway is so beautiful! I can't believe you're still skiing at the end of May though. Amazing work on the Olympic sweater and also the Talvinen sweater, congrats!
I’m excited to watch your weaving journey! I bought a vintage 25 inch rigid heddle loom and I’m learning a lot! One of those Knitter’s Looms is on my wishlist! 🤩 I love that they fold for easier storage!
All your projects are so inspiring. I’m so happy I found your channel. I have three granddaughters who would love the sweaters in the book. Thank you for such great content. I would love to try the Catedral.
the angel-trumpet sweater is amazing😍 Your knitting is so inspiring thank you🙏
Congratulations on completing the Olympic sweater - it's fantastic and timeless! Well done. I'd like to knit the Dream Sweater - it's just lovely. Lots of pretty things. Yes, the green jumper and the blue and white strip both will look great on you. Good for you for trying something new for yourself.
Watching this in 93f or 34c weather with 80% humidity and so jealous of your weather. 😭 but that sweater is 100% getting me ready for sweater knitting!! So excited. It really is a gorgeous piece and I can’t wait to see what accessories you make with it. 💜💜
Love your Olympic sweater! I have been following along since you started and can’t believe you finished it so quickly! I would love to knit either the catedral jumper or the Luca cardigan. Thank you ❤
So many gorgeous patterns to choose from, but the Abril pullover was 👌🏻 I love this podcast, you’re crazy talented ❤️
So lovely to see you again, You did such a beautiful job on your Olympic sweater. Such pretty knit patterns in the book. I would knit the Angel Trumpet sweater for my granddaughter.
I can't imagine ever being able to knit the Olympic sweater. Your talent is amazing! The dear deer blanket would be something I would love to knit. Thank you for another lovely episode!
Wow, your Olympic sweater is a Masterpiece! And I love the colours in your Abby Sweater. It's so cool that you're supporting the book and KAL from one of my local yarn stores here in Canada! I'd love the join the Catedral KAL, and knit up a matching kid's version for my honourary niece (my best friend's daughter).
All I can say is wow and OMG! If I could go through the screen and put on the Olympic jumper for just one minute I would feel great 😂. The Oscar vest in the book is one of my favourite designs. That's what I would go for first, no doubt.
I can't believe how quickly you finished that Olympic sweater! 😍 I would love to knit the Galicia cardigan 👀
Your Olympic sweater is absolutely gorgeous! I can’t wait to visit Bergen knit shops when I go in February. Thank you for introducing me to Eweknit Toronto and their patterns. I have a 4 month old grandson (my first) who needs more hand knit sweaters. Panda or Luca look cute.
I am more of the self-taught, "slow and steady" type knitter. The amount of work you are able to accomplish so beautifully amazes me. Thank you for the encouragement to try new things and improve my skills! The Making Memories book has stunning patterns. I would enjoy making either the Claudita or Angel Trumpet sweaters for my grand daughter. For myself, I like Eweknit's pattern Water Lily pullover.
Gorgeous knitting!! The Making Memories patterns are so adorable! I also love the adult Striped Tee pattern.
Your Olympic sweater is absolutely amazing. Well done you for powering through it. Together apart is beautiful, and what a great name for a pattern in the Making Memories book.
Thank you for another lovely episode!! I love your finished dream knit - even my husband was amazed by it! At this time I only have grandsons but I do have 4 great nieces and my favorite pattern from Making Memories has to be Claudita! It's just precious!
Your knitting is so inspiring! I especially enjoy you sharing your thoughts on decisions you make along the way in a project. It is helpful for me because I tend to just go with the instructions and often end up disappointed. I need to be more flexible and adapt to issues that arise. I would like to knit the Catedral sweater for a child. 😁
Love how your Olympic sweater turned out, makes me want to cast one on!! I love the Florentina sweater from the book, but they are all so gorgeous and cute with their models.
So happy to see you finished the Olympic sweater - it is gorgeous, a truly knit of love... Beautiful WIPs, but I'm so curious to see on you the sweater with white/blue stripes... Thank you for the giveaway - I like sooo many patterns from this book, but my favourite is Kaleidoscope. Big hugs, happy knitting!
LOVE your 1994 Olympic sweater 🤩 I have a friend who’s expecting a little girl in September and I’d love to make the Florentina sweater from Making Memories! Thank you for sharing all your knitting knowledge in these videos -I’ve learned SO MUCH from you!!!
It amazes me every time how much you knit between the podcast episodes, and the Olympic sweater is just mind blowing 🤯 I would like to knit the together apart sweater for a very good friend because I'm moving house and I think it would be a great gift!
I had to find/print off that amazing colourwork sweater when I saw it in your last podcast, absolutely love it, it’s amazing. I have the water lilies jumper & cardigan on my to make list, although the making memories book now is calling out to me also. Need more knitting time
Omg your sweater looks store bought and machine made. Its sooo beautiful i am totally impressed 👏🏿 👏🏿 👏🏿
Your Olympic sweater is so inspiring and turned out amazing!! I would knit the Oscar vest, such a great laying piece!
I love the Kaleidoscope sweater. My 6 year old granddaughter needs a colourwork sweater to wear on her family trip to Scandinavia. I have 11 grandkids and 7 are under 12, so lots knitting opportunities! Love your Olympic sweater- amazing colourwork. It is a real change to see you knitting in lilac blue like yarns in the striped sweater-look at you stepping outside the box- lol! Your WIPS look like good fun!
I’d love to knit the Carousel sweater for my nephew! Loved this podcast, you sound full of energy and joy 😊
Thank you for sharing your projects! Honestly, I can't pick only one single pattern from Eweknits Toronto ..... I have 4 in my ravelry favorites! Olio shawl, Sunday pullover, the holy hat and the Lana sweater. All delicious knits! Will definitely move them up in my queue!!
I found your channel today and immediately subscribed. You knit phenomenal things in beautiful qualities. The Sunday sweater would be a piece I would love to knit and wear. 🤩🤩🌼🌼
The Olympic sweater is stunning! I have had a eweknits pattern in my queue for over a year. The “together apart” sweater. I love it and I can’t wait to finally get it on the needles.
Sweater is AMAZING!!! Seen it when you were showing the colors you were going to use. Looks so great!! 🎉🎉😊
The Olympic sweater is so gorgeous! 😍 Your colourwork projects always turn out so amazing! The Catedral is a cute garment, and I love ro dear deer blanket - so cute
I definitely would knit the Catedral Pullover for me, and also the kid’s version for my daughters.Thank you for sharing your beautiful knits! It’s always a pleasure watch your podcast❤ 🧶❤
I have three kids- one of the patterns from the book that really appeals to me is the Piscucha sweater and mitts. It would be perfect for my daughter! Thank you for sharing all of your knits- I love hearing about the process of making decisions while crafting- it’s the best part about making your own knitwear!
Thank you for sharing this information, I had not explored Eweknits before. The Yvette Shawl looks like something I need to knit ☺️ Congratulations on your Olympic sweater, what an amazing knit!!!
I love watching your podcasts, and seeing all of the beautiful projects that you make! I feel like I need to make the Sunday Pullover and the Coral Pullover by Eweknit, but the Catedral KAL might be fun to join in on too!
Your sweater is absolutely stunning!! I love your podcasts and watch them eagerly. Would love to meet you in person one day!! I am going to knit the Catedralkal sweater for myself. It’s beautiful. Sending you hugs from Virginia!! 🥰
Really love how your dream knit turned out, it looks warm and cozy. I'm thinking of the KAL, the Catedral sweater looks beautiful, the rust color is right up my alley, I only wish it were knitted top down. I also am thinking of making the Acorn Sweater for my granddaughter.
The Panda Sweater! Adorable! Thank you for another great podcast! 💥🥰
I've been making a sweater for my niece every year now since she was born--she is 8 and she wears her auntie sweaters to death. I love it. I also love the Kaleidoscope pattern from Ewe Knit. I would do pink for my niece and navy for me.... (if I could manage to adapt the size that is!) 😄 Also, I got hooked on rigid heddle weaving last year! Once you get the loom warped it goes so FAST. You can use up so much stash so quickly. The only thing I don't like about it is when I have to machine sew hems on things like towels and napkins. Enjoy weaving!
I LOVE the Amy sweater you are knitting! Those colors make some very fun stripes. I like the suggestion of doing thicker stripes when your yarns have less contrast. I think it would be great to knit the Florentina Cardigan.
Inga you are so talented and thank you for sharing with us 🧡. The Olympic sweater turned out amazing I love it 🥰. Seriously when are you dropping a knit book for us I will drop the coins lol!!!
Another delightful episode where I feel totally awed by your amazing knitting. Since I am grandmother to five children it will be a pleasure to make th cathedral sweater. Thanks for your lovely presence in the flosstube world.
Thanks for sharing another great episode in your knitting life. The Kamilla Tee from Eweknits would make a perfect top for California Coast weather. I already have several lace yoke sweaters, and Kamilla will make a nice change of style.
That sweater is gorgeous! So much colorwork!! Wow! I am impressed.
The Olympic sweater - I knitted it for my teenage son loooong time ago 😍 He loved it and wore it so much! But yes, it took me so many hours. Like x stichting! 😂 Thank you for your pod 🥰
Hi Inga. Your Olympic sweater looks fantastic on you. What an EPIC knit!!! I've been to Ewe Knit in Toronto a couple of times and it is a gorgeous store. Hard to choose a pattern in the Making Memories book, but since I'm into cardigans right now I would knit the Wheat Cardigan. Love your podcasts and your projects.
Your knits are amazing. A also made the Amy Slipover and love it sooo much. Most versatile piece in my collection. But the bands are a slog. I really like the making memories book. So many beautiful pieces. A lot of friends are having kids now and I would love to make the Wheat Cardigan for one of them ❤ thank you
Wow, this was sheer joy!! Your Olympic sweater is a real dream, congrats! You are so gifted!! Thanks for another lovely time. I’d go for Galicia cardigan although every pattern is absolutely beautiful! 🧶🍂🍃💚
Your Olympic sweater is so beautiful. Thanks for another inspiring episode. Lookinf forward for more to come 😊
DREAMKNITTING GOALS!! Incredible Inga. I would love to see you walking around in the full Lillehammer ensemble - sweater, hat, mittens, knickers... yesssss!
Your Olympic sweater is so incredible!! I think you're going to need to get some more of that charcoal yarn because a matching hat would be perfect! Love Eweknit patterns, I finished my Midori pullover earlier this year and have worn it so much, I will definitely make another. Loads more of Claudia's patterns in my favourites too. I love the Sara vest so that might be cast on soon. Catedral is tempting too though!!
Another informative and enjoyable episode - thank you! I would love to knit the Together Apart pattern - it looks like angel's wings! Happy knitting everybody!
Your Olympic sweater is stunning! And you knit it so fast! Amazing, Inga. I love the look of the Catedral sweater and would probably knit that, too!
Just adore the Peekaboo sweater - to knit for my Granddaughter. Your Olympic sweater is awe inspiring. I push myself on after watching your videos. If I can reach half your skill level by the end of my life (I am 64 years) I will consider it a great accomplishment.
That Olympic sweater is amazing!! Always excited when your podcast comes out!
I love your Amy Slipover! I got inspired by the previous one you made and currently doing the arm bands. So excited for it to be finished. I have had the Elena pullover on my wish list for a while now so definitely want to make that one!
Great podcast. I am really interested in knitting the cathedral pullover for myself. How exciting to have received the loom, looking forward to hearing about your adventures in playing with your new toy.
Your projects are lovely and always inspire me!! Your Olympic sweater is defiantly a master piece. The ewe knit book looks fantastic and I would be interested in knitting the Angle Trumpet for my granddaughter :)
Your sweater is an heirloom! I made your slippers and just love them! Thanks as always for all the inspiration!
Oh my goodness, the Olympic sweater, what can I say……plus the other sweaters you have in progress right now, just stunning as always. I so look forward to your podcasts and all of the inspiration you provide. I just love the Dear Deer blanket from the book and it looks like great fun to knit.
4:22 PM I want to knit the cathedral sweater. It looks so calming. In live in Florida and will wear it when traveling. Truly beautiful. Have followed you and was inspired by your half and half. I knit one also. Love it.
Amazing Olympic sweater Inge! I really appreciate your explanations and always learn from them. I would do the Catedral too. It’s just beautiful
You are a Beautiful Knitter. I have watched every one of your podcasts more than once and wait for your new ones to arrive. I would like to knit the Amapola Cardigan and the Sugar Sweater.
So many great designs from Eweknit! I have in my to-knit-list and my library the Catedral and Lola Pullover for me, and from the book I love the Together apart and the Angel Trumpet, and the blankets. Hard to decide 😅
Great podcast about great knits! You are fantastic knitter ❤ I would truly enjoy knitting adult version of the Catedral sweater 😊
The Olympic Sweater is just..!!! ⭐And Eweknits. I've added to my favorites one mitten/beanie pattern already few years ago, but how I have not noticed what else designs she has. Omg, so, so, so beautiful patterns! Very difficult to choose but atm Amelia and Waters Lilies pullover, or Elena pullover would be the one. Thanks for an inspiring episode again!
Congratulations on the Olympic Jumper. A really spectacular jumper 👏. I would love to knit the Oscar vest in the Making Memories book. I have a new grandson and the vest would be perfect. Thank you for your really enjoyable podcast. I have been watching you since your first podcast. All the best.
Great podcast.. love the Olympic sweater....l took a knitting class at the Eweknit Shop... the whole team was wonderful.
Love the Angel Trumpet sweater. Thank you Inga for bringing all of the gorgeous knits in the Making Memories book to my attention.
Congratulations on accomplishing your dream knit. I hope you have many many happy days wearing it. 😊
Hi Your Olympic sweater is phenomenal! You should be very proud of your accomplishment. It looks great on you too! I fell in love With the "Dream sweater" that 1 is going in my project list! Blessings
