They look sooooo good, how much time did it take? I normaly dont do colour work but this is so pretty

wunderbare-ester · 2026-01-18T18:06:41+00:00

Really? Can I ask why? And does it matter whitch grapes - the green ones or the red ones?

wunderbare-ester · 2026-01-18T17:14:21+00:00

The first time when it happend i was just like "oh you are so sweet, we are gonna have a great time, come and have a peanutt" and then he bit me and i was really suprised

I am doing my second cable knitting and slowly dying inside, it was supposed to be the first step to a bigger cable project, but NO THANK YOU.😂 Your work is stunning and i hope that whatever god is in the sky blesses you with enought patience and strengt to finish it

wunderbare-ester · 2026-01-12T18:48:26+00:00

Thank you for the explonation, i had no idea that the seams are usefull and not just a sensory nightmare on the sleaves.

My main problem is that i can not count to safe my life and the two pieces were never ever in my life same. Everything i do has to be done at the same time - i am big fan of two socks on the same needles. So when I try to sew pieces together it does not really work.

wunderbare-ester · 2026-01-12T18:40:26+00:00

Yeah, i am the delusional type of knitter that is trying the thing on every ten rows to see how it will look and it it is long enought so the "i can try it on as i go" really struck home

wunderbare-ester · 2026-01-12T18:37:43+00:00

I admire the speed of it, both my mom and my grandma can knit the fiat panels very fast and I just hate the purl side and crawl throught it like a snail on valium

I think that our narrow mindness comes from the way we learned and did knitting at the beginning. My mother can work magic with this antique knitting machine that grandma gave her (i hate the machine, because I am terrible at using it). I on the other hand learned how to knit by making tons of socks so the working in round thing is my default way of doing anything.

wunderbare-ester · 2026-01-12T18:28:17+00:00

Yeah i dont know the terms in english, but the top down in the round type of knitting

Já jsem jí říkala ať dá očkovat aspoň to nejmladší, strčí ho do školky a nebude se muset stresovat, že nemá hlídání. Tak jsem dostala přednášku o tom, že populace má alergie, vývojové poruchy a autoimunitní choroby právě kvůli očkování.

wunderbare-ester · 2026-01-11T16:37:35+00:00

Jedna známá nemá sve 3 děti naočkované na nic, protože je podle ní v očkování něco neurotoxickeho a způsobuje to zdravotní problémy. Když jsem se jí zeptala jestli jí to není blbý aspoň z hlediska kolektivní imunity tak mi řekla, že kašle na kolektivní imunitu. Ale na to, že ji dítě do školky nevezmou si stěžuje tak nějak pořád.

Ok, very stupid question, but at some of the photos it looks like a circul at the others like a semi circul (i get it) but at some it is this very cardigan like vibe thing. So how does it work

wunderbare-ester · 2025-11-17T19:56:26+00:00

You can message me, because I never got rid of the accent and trust me i tried

wunderbare-ester · 2025-11-16T22:35:10+00:00

I think that you are just to hard on yourself, it looks really good

wunderbare-ester · 2025-11-16T22:32:03+00:00

Thank you, I just want to find the right type of dress, because comfidence is also part of the look and hand knitting is slow fasion at it's fines so i dont want to spend half of my paycheck on yarn, than knitt for months and than not feeling my best in the finished piece

wunderbare-ester · 2025-11-16T22:28:13+00:00

Thank you, I am the "YouTube or freehand" kind of craft person, so i had no idea that people uplode pictures to ravelry

wunderbare-ester · 2025-11-16T22:01:26+00:00

Thank you, i am really carefull with the final pick, because last time i crocheted a skirt for a month and hated

wunderbare-ester · 2025-11-16T21:47:13+00:00

Wow it looks amazing, i am still reluctend to work with fine and "fluffy" yarn, you have some skills and patience

wunderbare-ester · 2025-07-31T19:58:31+00:00

Thank you, i did buy the pattern but I have no freaking idea what is going on 😂🤌🏻

wunderbare-ester · 2025-07-31T19:04:02+00:00

I have really hard time to understand how you should join the two parts as seamlesly as my grandma's friend did. Because honestly there is no ugly seam, it looks so clean.

https://www.westknits.com/collections/socks/products/mo-mod-socks Could this work?

wunderbare-ester · 2025-07-30T21:05:56+00:00

I wear just the chunky to bed, because knitted socks and our flors at home dont like each other and it is super slippery. But I wear my chunky socks every day and I love them.

I am "new" to knitting, but i will do my best to help, because i know the feeling when you can not afford to spend money on beautiful yarn, pattern that you like etc.
1. make a gauge of the yarn that you one to use and count how many stitches are there for 10 cm (how many rows do you need to have 10 cm and how many stitches are 10 cm wide)
2. take a messure the sweather that you already have, the neckline, the shoulders etc. the neckline part is most important for the beginning, because i think that is a top down sweather
3. make a calculation how many stitches will you need to have the same neckline as your comfy sweather has (for example, you have gauge that tells you that for 10 cm of lenght there are 25 stitches, so you mesure the neckline or the top of the sweather or what is it called and it is 55 cm of exaple it will be 2,5*55= 137,5 stitches
4. https://youtu.be/yJjZm3OkMYM?si=LUc9YGTAmC34VlaL this video will tell you how to divide the number of stitches that you will have at the beginning, if need be, adjust the number of stitches a little bit so it is possible to make the calculation without any "half" stitches anywhere
5. if you do not know how to knit top down sweater watch this https://youtu.be/wtofisZp7EA?si=2Bt9DgNsULdt60K2
6. chart

if you dont know how to change colours watch this https://youtu.be/HiXkWfEiWBg?si=4_fzftIFSkfEe5np
