One week of Vlogmas 2023 down, I am having such a wonderful time! I didn't realize how much I would love the spinning part. It's been a while since I have spun anything and I have really enjoyed spinning on a regular basis this last week. #knitting #knittingpodcast #vlogmas2023 #spinning

Thank you! That’s very helpful❤❤❤
Glad it was helpful!
This is not a true provisional cast on. It is essentially pre picking up stitches on a finished edge. Look at Laura Nelkin’s video for the real deal.
Thank you for your comment. I’m simply showing how I do things, that’s the great thing about having your own channel. Have a great day! 😊
This is so helpful! Thank you!
I’m so glad it helped!
Excellently explained. I am going to try it.
Wonderful! 😊
Why wouldn't you use a yarn that's smooth. Would be so much easier to see. Thanks!
I used smooth yarn on my Instagram page (it’s pinned at the top of my feed). My goal with using a not smooth yarn is to show how easy the technique is regardless of the yarn! Happy knitting! 😊
❤
😊
Kimberly please can you tag me on the beginning video of your sweater challenge. Thanks
Hi there Natalie… I’m afraid I’m not sure what you are referring to. Can you give me a bit more information?
thank you!!!
My pleasure! 😊
You have no idea how happy I was to find this video. I am a new knitter and am doing a test knit. The first ICORD bind off on the neck I did concert in so much I couldn’t get it over my head. Also it used a different way to close the gap and I could not get it to work. I was almost ready to chunk the whole thing in the trash because I have had so much trouble with this and it was all Me not the pattern. You made this sooo very easy. Thank you thank you thank you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart and for the salvation of my knit…lol
I am so very happy I was able to assist you! Enjoy wearing your beautiful knit! 🩷
Hi I just got my fist tattoo at 57.. My mom has been against tattoos and showed her disapproval to other family members when they've gotten one. She is now 80 and I will see her next week. I'm nervous. Isn't that funny?
It’s not funny… you sound like a person that respects her Mom. I hope you love your tattoo as much as I love mine. 🩷🌈🩷
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤love this.Best way of close i Cord.
Thank you very much, I’m very glad it helps your knitting 🤍
Eeee! You're a knitter like meeee! Bestieees! I actually just knitted my first scrunchie no tutorials
Way to go!!! 😀
@@Knit-A-Rainbow thank you! 😊
Stop why is this so cutee her smile is just so pretty
Thank you 😊
Gorgeous job! Unfortunately I have not been able to practice like I would have hoped, so I’m still in the “art yarn” phase. I am so looking forward to the day when I can make such thin even plies like you! Cause I love working in lace / sock weight yarn, but getting the colors I want within my budget (coughBLACKlaceweightcough) is difficult especially in my area.
Thank you very much! When I was first starting out, I bought a pound of fiber and spun everyday… even if it was 15 minutes. It makes a world of difference! If I can help at all please let me know 🤍
I don't need coaching, as I've been knitting for over 50 yrs. But I wanted to add a comment anyway to tell you what a great idea I think that is. I've watched a lot of knitting videos (always eager to learn new techniques), and I haven't seen anybody else offering private coaching. Good for you! I hope it works out well.
Thank you very much Carol 😊
That is just plain incredible! Now I have to choose a project where I can use that.
I’m glad you like it! You can use it for hems and fold over collars. My pattern In Bloom Sweater has a fold over collar. 🌸
Yay! I just watched episode 1 and can’t wait to binge watch through the others. Thank you for sharing your passion for fiber and knitting and life! And thank you for sharing your mom’s Knit a Rainbow advice. 🥰 Kim
Thank you Kim! I’m so glad you enjoyed the first episode, it was so wonderful to spend time with you yesterday 🩷
Thank you! Brilliant.
Glad it was helpful!😊
I would do this with my cat with my crochet… but he don’t like collars at all so I don’t think he would like a sweater 😂
A granny square poncho would be epic!! Thank you for commenting 😊
brilliant!!
Thank you! I’m glad it helped 😊
This is the best tutorial. I'm coming back to it again and again. Thank you so much!
I’m so happy to read this! Thank you for commenting 😊
Best ❤
I followed you only because I loved your sincere smile
Thank you very much! Do you knit? Crochet? Spin yarn?
OMG!!! TOO CUTE! I love it!😂😊
Thank you very much!! 😊
I love all your patterns and videos!
Oh Julie!! I can’t wait to see you next week!! 😊

That is adorable

Thank you very much! 😊
Got my pattern and am so excited to start another one of your designs❤️❤️❤️

I know this is an old post, but i did this cord for the first time today with a pattern and i was watching the accompanying video. I could not see or figure out what the lady was doing. So i searched and found this one. THANK YOU! You saved me!!!! I have now completed my i cord! You have a new sub!
Thank you Edie!! I love that you were able to finish! Thank you for the sub 🩷

What a beautiful story about your Mom’s words. I too turned to learning to net to save me while recovering from a difficult injury and surgery. Your story inspires me. Thank you.
Thank you for being here and commenting 🩷
Hi Kimberly what pattern is the baby blanket.
Hi! I didn’t use a pattern.
Just beautiful
@@leslienelson1751 Thank you very much. 😊
@@Knit-A-Rainbow My daughter and I had the pleasure of taking a class at Skein Yarn Shop with you. So much fun.
@@leslienelson1751 Thank you for reminding me Leslie! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊
That’s amazing, the blanket is so beautiful, I don’t knit but I do crochet and my brother knits, he loves making handkerchiefs and smaller things like that while I like to make things like plushies and stuff with my crochet, though I have yet to finish a blanket (full sized) I might try a baby blanket since they are smaller though!
I like to do both knit and crochet. A lot of times I will knit the center of the blanket and crochet a lace border (it’s quicker that way!) I’m glad you popped in for a comment! It’s nice to hear from you 😊
I get so excited when I see you have a video up ❤ you are always so uplifting
Thank you so much Marlena!!
hi kimberly-thanks for the video-but i am at a loss for after you pick up the sleeve stitches-how are you seaming the sleeve and the side sweater seams-perhaps an additional video-i have only seamed my sweaters by sewing thanks for any hep
Hi Lisa! I seam the sleeves and the sides of the sweater exactly as I seam the panels together.
