Such a fun episode, thank you Nikki and Laurie! This year's Advent socks are amazing! My suggestion is too late for you but tuck away the information - if you have a light and dark chart but your colours are the reverse, you can convert the light to dark and dark to light quite easily and then print it out so that you don't have to keep chanting to yourself. The trouble is, I forget how! I have done it, and I don't have fancy editing software on my computer. The birds chirping in the background are delightful and your new backyard with all the trees is gorgeous. Happy New Year!

Great episode. Love the mother/daughter knitting 🥰

Such a lovely energy between the two of you and such great traditions. Nikki, I am in awe of your colourwork skills. All of your projects are so beautiful. Hope you have/had a great holiday season.

Both advent socks are spectacular!

Your socks are beautiful. What fun to be knitting with your mum. Your mum seems like she's lots of fun , so when she's finished at your house she's welcome at mine. It's definitely not snowing here !! (I'm in Australia)

Chicka DeeDeeDee..

Love the frugal advent calendar! Both pairs of socks are absolutely stunning. (I’ll bet there was some swearing during the knitting😂) The choice of project for advent was also very creative and inspiring. Edited to add men’s sweater patterns: Cobblestone pullover and Cobblestone cardigan (Jared Flood) Beagle (Norah Gaughan) Antler (Tincanknits) Rift (Jared Flood) Ranger (Jared Flood) are a few that I’ve made that have been well received

Thanks for charming inspirations. A wonderful Podcast. Best wishes with kind regards

This was an lovely episode 🎁🧶 I am watching from Norway. This Christmas i knitted «Gib» by Andrea Mowry for my husband and it was a success. Love from Birte @konkyliedesign

Loved seeing you and your Mum in the snow - it’s a very warm 32 degrees here and I’m crocheting a blanket for my Mum who’s in care so it’s acrylic to survive their brutal laundering regime. Have knit my husband a few sweaters and he’s still here after 35 years so have dispelled the boyfriend sweater myth. My favourites are the Dustland by Stephen West and a colourwork using Tin Can Knits Strange Brew so recommend those two.

What a lovely episode again with your mum. The socks are beautiful,as are the stockings. Thank you so much and sending love and best wishes from my house to yours x

I love love love your Nightingale socks!!! I can’t decide who’s I like better! I love your advent tradition. Making it in the summer is a great idea! For a man’s sweater; i made the Riddari for my husband. It’s a great pattern. Unfortunately it’s a tad too heavy for him (and now a little snug) so it’s better for me.

I love that you did an episode with your mom and that you make projects together. ❤ Your advent socks are both amazing! And those Christmas stockings are beautiful! Merry Christmas!

Do you wear the fancy socks with shoes/boots or are they like slippers for in house wear?

Wow, those socks blew me away! Merry Christmas to you both. Loved the podcast.

Both Nightingale socks are absolutely beautiful. Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎅🏻🧤🎄❤️🧣❤️

So nice to watch a knitting podcast right in my hometown. Those socks are amazing. I only knit toe up socks on magic loop. The birds in the background were making my cat bonkers lol. (Just some random comments). Merry Christmas

Your sweaters and all your projects are gorgeous! I love how the cables pop with that yarn (the Saven). My recommendation for a men's sweater is the Goatherder by Ann Budd. It's really simple and classy.

Merry Christmas! I have a reverse Boyfriend curse story. I knit my husband a beautiful Paul Klee sweater, but he never wore it. So, I took it back, wear it sooooo much. It’s my warmest, coziest sweater. I would recommend this for a guy. And use up all your good scraps!

Oh my heart girl! Your colourwork is just stunning. The socks are incredible . Love all the projects. Merry Christmas to you and yours ❤️

We have a white Christmas here in PEI as well. Your colour work cardigan is looking beautiful! Is the BOR at the steak? I struggled with that when I knit the Thornlea. Merry Christmas to you both!

Merry Christmas!

Wonderful episode, Merry Christmas 😊. I understand about brain problems when trying to do the reverse of charts! I love when designers show both options....like on the recently released Catknit pattern. I don't know why, but I'm so intrigued by that pattern 😃

Hi! Those socks are amazing!! Have you seen the socks by sullavikat (Mia Sumell)? They’re something else… Also Lumi Karmitsa, those are also just stunning! ❤ Happy Christmas! 🎄

Thank you for this lovley Episode with you and your mom ❤ and your Advent socks are beautyful 😍 wish you all a merry Christmas 🎄

It’s so fun to see your holiday episode with your mom. Your projects are all so beautiful, including your amazing socks! Merry Christmas!

They both, the socks, look fantastic, wow ‼️

Wow! Your Advent socks are phenomenal.

yay once again a fun snowy time with you and sharing wonderful knits and time together....love you!

i await your christmas show with baileys in one hand and my never to be used needles in the other. so enjoyable.

Yay! Just settling in for the night, and you have your holiday episode up! 🎉🎉🎉 Stay warm in that beautiful snow, both of you! 🤗🤗

Oooooh now I have to come up with some good project that is stranded colorwork and cast on🤣🤣. I'll be back soon with a new podcast. Just need to get the routines in order a bit😂. Your stockings really turned out super nice😍😍. I love your sweater that you are wearing. I've seen it so many times and every time I get the urge to make one myself😍🤩. You always do so many nice things💕. Now on to the next episode💞💞

Oh how I love your new place to do your podcast from, really beautiful😍. Understand what you mean about your Lunenburg, love your choice of colors as usual😍😍. It turned out so nice and your Bolan is stunning on you🥰. It's so much fun to come along on your spinning journey. It already looks so good🤩. Now I'll skip ahead to your next episode😍💞

I finally have some time to catch up with you🥰. Oh how I love your Stephenville crossing, it turned out so nice😍😍. So glad to hear about the new house🤩. Understand that it was a bit stressful to both buy and sell in just 3 days🥵. Now on to the next one💞💞

So sorry I'm late on this episode Nikki! But I loved it and made my work lunch knit even more fun!! Gosh i just want to knit all the things too and seeing all your projects is adding to my list! your colorwork socks and colorwork cardi..*swoon* and I want a Sunday Cardi too! aaaannd want to do English paper piecing too 😂.. just need more time! so I will live through you for a bit! 😉 and omygosh the Bob Ross and Painting costume... Brilliant! haha absolutely love that. Thanks for sharing Nikki and can't wait to see you in the next one. Cheers! 🥰xo

Your Lunenberg looked spectacular in that golden, autumnal light Nikki 🤩 So good!

Sticking is very well presented by Fruity Knitting. She tried m9re options, and presented one suits me most, too. Fully recomend. Unfortunately l can not write the podcast number to you.

I have recently started my first EPP project. Just a little bag for a Christmas gift. Everything I have read strongly suggests not hand cutting papers as they should be identical. You don’t need hundreds and hundreds of papers. After sewing together a medium size grouping the papers can be removed and reused. I would suggest watching Kate at The Last Homely House. She does beautiful EPP quilts as well as other styles. Have fun!

Lovely to see you again Nicky and all your lovely projects. Love your Lunenberg sweater. I am over 60 and did the coach to 5k this summer and now run 5K 4 times a week. Just trying to keep healthy as i lost my dear husband 2 years ago and want to be here for my children as long as possible. Love from the Uk, from my home to yours. By the way the only bears here are Teddy bears x

On your center of the quilt you could do an appliqué pattern. Wouldn’t take years to do like a paper pieced top. You can find patterns for appliqué flowers or even William Morris’s inspired designs.

Thank you for not considering purchasing from Temu! Your sweater that you are wearing is stunning! I love your vlog.

Hi Nikki! Nice to join you again - loved hearing about your projects - that colourwork looks so pretty, and I'll have fun in a minute looking at the patterns that you've linked. I've been in test mode again - just finished an upcoming design from Beth MacDonald Stone, called Simply the Best - Entredeux, and now I'm just starting one that's due in the first week of January, a garter top called Get Out of the Pool Tee, so lots of fun with the needles! So nice to hear that you are settling into your new house nicely (even with your bear neighbours!), and your back yard looks so wonderful and wild! Cheers, Judith 💜💚

Loving the stranded colourwork cardigan! I think I can join in the knit along, I’m going to knit my brother a scarf in colourwork. Do I post updates in the hashtag? Or just the finished object? I always say go big or go home 😂 so you go quilt the hard stuff. Your learning curve will be steep! You can do it! 💪🏻 A bear! How exciting and wonderful and scary and all the things… maybe you have a wooden spoon and a pan lid to bang on? That might scare them. What do I know, we don’t have bears here haha! ❤ I actually just did the final stitch on my go go dynamo shawl! 🎉

You had snow! And bears, again, wow! I love your Lunenberg, and I will be making mine for your KAL. You are so brave with all your colourwork projects, and you make them so beautifully.

Ohhhhh Nikki. I have basted thousands and thousands of hexies. You can google hexagon graph paper and print it onto your card stock! Def use card stock. I baste right thru the paper. Makes for a nice crisp edge . I’m excited to see your quilt. I find basting them is like knitting. Just one more…… lol. Enjoy

wow, your agnes cardigan is turning out so wonderful. I've seen a few light versions but I think the dark version is my favorite. can't wait to see yours when it's done!!

What a lovely surprise this morning - thank you for another episode❤ I really love your color work cardigan ! I so admire color work and am so worried doing it myself and definitely don’t really want to do fingering weight (yet) so I got yarn to start small with a Hozho Cowl by the Native Knitter and I start it as soon as my daughters Classic Ribbed Hat by purl soho is finished. I am also waiting for the Marie Wallin Aran book - I will get it for my birthday and I would love to try the vest called Budle so I hope I can cast that on maybe as a new years cast on, if I can get colors I want 😊

Hi Nikki, thank you for this lovley Episode 😊 your Lunenberg sweater ist so beautyful 😍 and the Agnes Cardigan is stunning...perfect color choice...I'm working on some Christmas Gifts, Like socks and hats and lots of Sophie scarfs...😂....

loving all your projects! your sweater looks fantastic on you and the rug is very cool..I am working on a colourwork sweater in fingering weight and it has acrylic in it as well so I share the same feeling of how slippery it can be. Just wondering if your goal of a 5k treadmill run is inspired by your bear encounters :)

I've ordered some assorted sock yarns from Galt House of Yarn this week...all of their sock yarn is on sale. I've ordered a few colours of Filcolana Arwetta to knit the Merry and Bright Socks...so they can be an entry in the KAL. I'm an old-school EPP quilter. I re-use ordinary paper and flyers and hand-baste to the fabric. I use a stiff template to trace the pieces. Once you have a bunch basted, it's a great take-along project 😊
