If you see this, can you comment a maple leaf emoji so I know if even one person reads the description? A policeman spotted a person knitting while driving. "Pullover!" he yelled. "No, it's a scarf!" they replied.#Knitting #Crochet #knittingtips

Knitting Projects at Night Breathing Yarn 2025-09-28 | A few quiet nights of knitting with my cats. I’m working through a couple of sweaters (one of them refuses to get finished) and a pair of socks.

What Happens When You Re-Knit Your Own Design Breathing Yarn 2025-08-31 | It's a point of pride with me that my first sweaters were not very good. It's a sure sign that I have improved. Years ago, I knit a sweater that I loved at the time but looking back, there was soooo much I would do differently. In this video, I pull that old project out of the closet (metaphorically), take a hard look at what worked (and what didn’t), and challenge myself to redesign it into the sweater I always wanted it to be.This time around, I’m perfecting my raglan construction, experimenting with dyeing my own yarn, and knitting a piece that actually feels like me now. It’s part reflection, part making, and part reminder that our skills and style evolve over time.Come along while I deconstruct, reimagine, and rebuild a sweater from my past.❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ 🌼Various Stuff Mentioned: Remind me in the comments if I forgot something! ❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Timestamps ⌛ 00:00 - Plans03:56 - Getting Started06:39 - Progress07:53 - Dye17:26 - Packing Tangent21:25 - Reveal ❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Email: breathingyarn@gmail.comPinterest: https://pin.it/1vHBsZ9DB (user name: breathing yarn) Ravelry: ravelry.com/people/BreathingYarn PO Box: available upon request (email me😊) All music provided by Epidemic Sound #knittingvlog

Weve Been Using Aesthetics Wrong - Ep.3/4 Breathing Yarn 2025-08-03 | Welcome to the third episode of the style series (of four). This video was the most tricky in the series to write.

How to Stop Buying Clothes Youll NEVER WEAR! - Ep.2/4 Breathing Yarn 2025-07-13 | Never again do I need to feel uncomfortable in my own clothes. It’s overwhelming trying to figure out what your wardrobe should look like, let alone what it should feel like.

Knitting WIP Marathon: Finishing Everything on My Needles Breathing Yarn 2025-07-06 | Today is the day I face the chaos and finally finish all my knitting WIPs.I had way too many half-finished projects sitting in baskets, bags, and probably under the couch... and I have decided enough is enough.

Every Maker Needs a Color Palette (Not Just Fashion Folks) - Ep.1/4 Breathing Yarn 2025-06-29 | Today I’m talking all about color palettes and how figuring mine out totally changed the way I knit, crochet, and get dressed. For the longest time, I made things just because I liked the yarn or the pattern, then wondered why I didn’t reach for them later. Sound familiar?In this video, I walk you through how I developed a color palette that actually works for me, my style, and the clothes I already own. I’ll show you how I built it, how I use it when planning projects, and why it’s made my handmade wardrobe feel way more cohesive and wearable.If you’ve ever knit something that looked amazing on your needles but just never made it into an outfit, this one’s for you.❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Various Stuff Mentioned: Neons and Neutrals (Aimée Gille): lainepublishing.com/en-us/products/neons-neutrals Vogue Color Trends Article (Libby Page): vogue.com/article/spring-summer-2025-color-trends ❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Timestamps ⌛ 00:00 - Intro 01:22 - Why?03:12 - How?15:36 - Relevance to Crafting18:50 - Color Theory22:41 - Essential Tips❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Email: breathingyarn@gmail.com (I receive frequent emails and am not always able to respond to every email sent, but I always read them and they are always appreciated)Pinterest: https://pin.it/1vHBsZ9DB (user name: breathing yarn) Instagram: instagram.com/breathingyarn Ravelry: ravelry.com/people/BreathingYarn PO Box: available upon request (email me😊) All music provided by Epidemic Sound #knittingvlog #personalstyle #WardrobePlanning #SlowFashion
How to Knit for $0 Breathing Yarn 2025-06-15 | I struggle with the message that you need to “invest” in a hobby. That is just not true. I’d love to hear a few more voices echo that many hobbies can be started for little/no money. Knitting is absolutely one of those hobbies. Whether you are trying to save money or you never had much to begin with, there are ways to make knitting more affordable. It’s not as easy as simply clicking a button and having hundreds of dollars of knitting supplies show up at your door, but it isn't impossible. I would hate to see knitting turned into a “rich person hobby” because nobody told you it can be done on a budget. ❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Timestamps ⌛ 00:00 - Intro 01:36 - Tool Alternatives03:12 - Budget $006:05 - Budget $20-4011:35 - Budget $50-10013:10 - Additional Tips16:25 - How to Support People on a Budget❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Email: breathingyarn@gmail.com (I receive frequent emails and am not always able to respond to every email sent, but I always read them and they are always appreciated)Pinterest: https://pin.it/1vHBsZ9DB (user name: breathing yarn) Instagram: instagram.com/breathingyarn Ravelry: ravelry.com/people/BreathingYarn PO Box: available upon request (email me😊) All music provided by Epidemic Sound #knittingvlog #knittingbudget #budgethobby

The first video was a theory-based explanation of my process for knitting my own sweaters without using a pattern. I received a bunch of requests to make a follow-up video and I am finally getting around to it. Fun fact, the first cut of this video was two hours long (and it only covered the first half of making the sweater). I'm glad I cut the video down to focus less on the construction for the specific sweater I am working on. I know it’s a video choice that will disappoint some, but I think it was the right choice for me. I don't want to distract from the main points of this video by muddying it with details about a sweater that has a unique construction. It’s not transferable information since it is unique to the sweater I am making. If you plan to design your own sweater and you’re struggling to wrap your head around it, I would highly recommend watching tutorial videos for the specific construction you are going with.❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Email: breathingyarn@gmail.com (I receive frequent emails and am not always able to respond to every email sent, but I always read them and they are always appreciated)Pinterest: https://pin.it/1vHBsZ9DB (user name: breathing yarn) Instagram: instagram.com/breathingyarn Ravelry: ravelry.com/people/BreathingYarn PO Box: available upon request (email me😊) All music provided by Epidemic Sound #knittingvlog

Testing Every Method to Make Fabric Sticky Notes Breathing Yarn 2025-03-23 | I felt like a little kid again while making these post-its. I didn't realize how much I missed the feeling of crafting; making something I have no idea how to make just to see if I can. I miss the days of scavenging my home and trash for the most random materials. I miss problem-solving for fun, not just to satisfy a corporation's bottom line or to appease annoying adult responsibilities.

It doesn't always work, but it is certainly better than doing nothing and hoping the feeling just goes away. At the end of today’s video, i decided to pop in a little preview of how I normally style my knitwear. Next week, I am planning to talk all about how I pick out patterns to fit my personal style. ❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Email: breathingyarn@gmail.com (I receive frequent emails and am not always able to respond to every email sent, but I always read them and they are always appreciated)Pinterest: https://pin.it/1vHBsZ9DB (user name: breathing yarn) Instagram: instagram.com/breathingyarn Ravelry: ravelry.com/people/BreathingYarn PO Box: available upon request (email me😊) All music provided by Epidemic Sound #knittingvlog

Trying to find yarn that works for me has been a STRUGGLE and continues to be an ongoing effort. As much as I would love to cast aside superwash merino, it is one of few fiber types that has treated me well. Fingers crossed over the next few years, I’ll be able to transition over to fully natural fibers. That’s a very personal goal. I am hoping the recommendations in the comment section will help me in achieving it. This video was a long time coming since it is definitely my top deciding factor when purchasing yarn. I have made waaaaay too many yarn purchase mistakes in the past. The online impulse shopping was REAL. But this year is different. I am different. It’s time to work down my stash so I can make room for the beautiful yarn out there that will (hopefully) better align with my values and better accommodate my sensitive skin. ❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Email: breathingyarn@gmail.com Pinterest: https://pin.it/1vHBsZ9DB (user name: breathing yarn) Instagram: instagram.com/breathingyarn PO Box: available upon request (email me and I’ll send you the address😊) All music provided by Epidemic Sound

I lost a statement alpaca scrunchie to an exploded bottle of red nail polish. I also left my favorite crochet bandana at the pool and haven't seen it since. I hope it has found a new home. Also shoutout to my mom’s cumulus blouse that I totally forgot to add (out of sight, out of mind). Dang it! I also forgot to mention my big blanket, and the shorts I had sewn! Ugh. Whatever. Thanks to @KnitCheek for inspiring the idea to add an info card for each project! I'll be doing that in future videos, so much easier and cleaner than what I was doing lol.❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊ Email: breathingyarn@gmail.com (I receive frequent emails and am not always able to respond to every email sent, but I always read them and they are always appreciated)Pinterest: https://pin.it/1vHBsZ9DB (user name: breathing yarn) Instagram: (Sorry!

Is it just me who thinks that? Maybe I am too picky. I spent a few months looking for crochet patterns that I actually like and I am proud to say, I managed to find 12 that I can truly say I like. If you have any crochet pattern designers that you like, please please please share it in the comments. Finding reliable crochet pattern designers that match your (and my) personal style is always exciting and I need to know who is out there. Many of the crochet patterns did not include specific sizing in the item description which is why I did not include the sizing info. My sincerest apologies, I try to include that info when available. I will make a stronger effort in the future to dig for that info.
