Thank you for your comment Sue. Yes, I was ages at the Emily Foulds stand because I loved the Yorkshire Spinners natural coloured wool but it would have irritated my skin and due to the cost, it would have to be something that I could wear. Likewise the Wensleydale sheep wool on The Wensleydale Longwool stand. The colours were absolutely beautiful. The skeins I bought are really soft so I am knitting little shawls to see if the yarn is ok next to my skin. 😊

Regarding the stocking, I like the chunky wool on the heel as it's almost like Father Christmas' beard. The colours of the wools at the show are beautiful, particularly all the shades of neutral and pastel

My mum's family were fishermen in Whitby and wore guernseys as a matter of tradition. I have never thought who knit them for them. Love that part of North Yorkshire.

Hi ,it breaks my heart to see such wonderful wool that I can't wear and it makes my hands sore to knit it,I use cotton, linen for myself, I love silk but I really find it a bit to expensive, there's another show at Harrogate that I think is on soon ,happy knitting xxx

Lovely to see your podcast! Love your purchases, wish I could have gone. Happy knitting 🧶

i only found you about 5 episodes back and am now going to go right back to the beginning.It's incredible that you have knitted that jumper on size 14 needles! Although I have knitted all my life, I have only ever done socks on a size 13, never finer. Your workmanship is amazing . An overused word nowadays but truly awesome in the proper sense.

Hello dear, say, why did you say that the Guernsey was not a success? It looks like a very nice top to me and if nothing else it was practice and a learning experience ;) Happy times, lovely knits! Su / Pinguinpullover

I am catching up on your journey.xx🐝🐝

This was a great thing to see, Thankyou .xxx🐝🐝

these patterns were made for people who did not have time to have a nervous breakdown. funniest piece of wisdom on the entire internet. thank you so much!

I really enjoyed what the lovely Lady Deb was speaking about and totally understood her no nonsense way of knitting. I like the fact that Ganseys do not need any shaping either! I have that book too which I bought and have been very interested in knitting this as I am a knitter too. Also married to a Cornish lol here in Australia. Thank You for sharing. This lady has clearly inspired me more.

So glad to have found your channel! Wow, such beautiful scenery as well as the knitting and interview - thank you so much for sharing ❤ Thank you to Deb also! Going to catch up on some of your previous episodes

Thank you for showing your knits. You did quite a lot in six months. I enjoyed the tour. It looks like an interesting place to visit.

Lovely to see you back. Thank you for The Bay. Lived there when I was young! My favourite place in the world. Precious memories. 🧶

Lovely knits I really like king cole drifter it washes Lovely, happy knitting ,did you see the program with Helen Skelton showing our coast line it was brilliant, it was on last week called Yorkshire...... can't remember title love sue xx

I've just started watching your series memorializing your gansey journey. It's wonderful! I'm a beginner /intermediate knitter (at 69 yrs old, but in good health and feel much younger) and after a couple of simple sweaters, I've decided to knit a gansey. I've ordered three cones of Frangipani. May I ask how many hours you think you put in to this beautiful sweater. I heard you say 14 weeks, but how many hours per day? Just wondering. I'm not too concerned about how long it may take because the hours will go by anyway and I will enjoy the journey. But I also want to stay focused and have a somewhat realistic goal to the finish line so I don't wander and turn this into a 20 year project! Please keep recording your knitting projects, they are so helpful and wonderful! 😊

Love this! Thank you so much for sharing! Gonna have to get myself down there next year if the exhibition is on again. So inspired to give this a try ❤

This is such a wonderful channel. I started a guernsey last year and stopped just before the gussets. It has been so wonderful watching you grappling with the trials and tribulations. you give me hope to get back to mine. Looking forward to next week when you show us your knits.

Wonderful. Thank you ❤

What a great interview. The exhibition looked fab too. Would you consider coming up with your own pattern for your grandson?

Fascinating. You’re lucky to live close to the exhibit. Imagine the total knitting hours that were in that room. I hadn’t thought about the patterns needing to be easy enough so they didn’t have to fuss with their knitting.

What a wonderful video xxxx

Looking forward to seeing some of your other knitting projects 😁

So good to see you I'm going to try and get there xxx

How lovely to see you back! May see you, as I’m going too!!! Happy knitting 🧶

How nice to see you back. It will be interesting to see the exhibition and also your knitting. Do they have Guernsey patterns for one year olds?

It’s really lovely to hear from you again! The exhibition will be very nice to see and it will be especially enjoyable to have your commentary along the way. And if you do manage to film any of the workshops, I think you’d be capturing and sharing wonderful skill that I’m sure would be enjoyed by many more people here who’d love nothing more than to see it in person, but are simply unable to. 💙

Love the information. Wanted to knit one for ages. Will have a go now. Thank you

Hello just found you, I’m making a Gansey too. Not for the faint hearted 😅

Phew!!! Huge congratulations! It’s stunning. 🎉

It’s looking stunning! 🧶

Loved seeing your walk; how stunning it always is in the snow. Happy knitting! 🧶

Love your videos! Like you, Ive been knitting since a child and have just taken the plunge (thanks to Deb, Propagansey, in Whitby) and have started my 1st Gansey. My paternal family have always either been Yorkshire fishermen/merchant seamen and, from as far back as I can remember, they’ve all worn their Ganseys. I have tried to incorporate patterns from all the places they’ve sailed from and I’ve used the same wonderful book as yourself. Nearly up to the gusset, so wish me luck!! My husband, who never wants anything knitting, has asked for one, so fingers crossed!😂. Absolutely love your Gansey - I can imagine how thrilled your brother in law was. I love the fact that they tell a story of our heritage and family lives so their memories live on. Huge thank you from another proud Yorkshire lady. 🧶

Well what can I say. Words are not powerful enough to express my delight at receiving my traditional guernsey. Allana I know what a busy life you lead which your followers would never know. To follow your journey after I received my guernsey has been an eye opener “ to say the least. I will treasure it always and whether it ends up in the Whitby museum or on a museum when I die will be up to you. Thanks are not powerful enough.

It was nice to hear that you got it done on time. It looked very well on him. Thank you for showing your guernsey journey and the views on your days out. I hope you'll be back to show us more of your crafting.

I had tears when I seen it finished ,you have been amazing I hope you continue with your channel ,I will miss you and your beautiful work sue xx

Through your incredible research, determination, diligence, experience and skill, in my opinion, you have achieved something far more special than even your exquisite final product, which will certainly be a treasured heirloom for generations to come. Not only did you produce a fantastic gift, you used your existing knowledge and skill and challenged yourself to try and to learn something new. Your bravery to take on such a technical project honors and celebrates the resilient, resourceful, tough and boundlessly caring and loving fisherwomen of generations past. You were able to continue onward and preserver through countless setbacks, much in the same way your ancestors did as they watched over and protected the family and home while their husbands were out at sea. You’ve embodied their loving spirit by creating a beautiful masterpiece just like they did as they provided for their family while waiting for their husband’s safe return. Your living present day demonstration of historical craft is awe inspiring! This series has been a pleasure to watch and you should be proud of what you’ve achieved! I learned so much about many things I never would have realized I was interested in through your patient and expert explanation. Thank you so much for making this and I genuinely hope this won’t be the last time you post videos!

I've so enjoyed watching you knit this beautiful guernsey, you were so patient and worked so hard. You must be very happy with the result, your brother-in-law is a great model! I'm going to miss your videos, I hope you come back sometime to show us what's on your needles. I've been watching from Ontario Canada.🧶

Well done, it was such a lot of work and it looks fabulous. An heirloom piece even. who knows, it may one day end up in a museum of the future! Your brother in law wears it well and i am sure he very much appreciates all the time and effort that you put into knitting it.

It was lovely seeing the guernsey in the museum but I do prefer the navy blue. I've been knitting for many years but it would have taken me at least a year to finish one of these sweaters!

That must have been interesting to see the guernsey at the museum. Did it say what year it was from? Will you bring yours over to show them when you finish it?

Wow what an amazing sweat xx

You have so much patience, it's so fiddly if I was you I couldn't bare to give it away ,well done xx

You are doing such an amazing job with this guernsey, thank you for sharing.

I've been enjoying watching the guernsey grow. I haven't seen someone putting a stitch marker inside the work before. Is there a reason for this?

So enjoying your sweater journey! I love the colour and the pattern, it must be getting a bit heavy. Hope your knitting goes well this week, looking forward to seeing the progress next week!

Your footage of Whitby was so interesting, thnk you for taking the time to film and share it. You are coming along a treat with your knitting!

Sorry everyone. I have made a huge error and deleted the first part of my video about Whitby. The video resumes after 50 seconds. Also the quality of the upload is not at the usual standard and I don't know why.

This looks like you've done the bulk of it. Do you think you'll be within your time schedules?

Thank you for taking us along on your journey! I'm really enjoying your videos.
