Dear Andrea. Thank you so much for using this specific piano music with your hike, and also for telling us about the composer and your special rehearsal tale. I loved it. My mother, now only a few months away from turning 90, still plays the piano, and does it fairly well. She has played in my vlog a couple of times. She is also an avid knitter and in one of my episodes she shows some of her garments while her piano music goes in the background. It is my favourite episode :-)
What a wonderful podcast! The segment where Elvira talks about knitting a scarf for her father who couldn't use it and then using the yarn for her grandchild is especially touching. As I am catching up on your podcasts I find myself two years behind time but still everything is as relevant today. Thanks for all the effort you put in.
This is absolutely one of your best episodes, which is a feat considering you have around 200 really top notch episodes. Thank you for all you put into these.
I am so glad to found the interview with Elizabeth again. Now my mother is old and when I visit her I have so mcuh patience with her while knitting the whole time. I am so thankful, Elizabeth, knitting is doing so much good here!!
Elvia Woodruffs segment is so touching. Its amazing to me that this pod cast can illuminate such talent and amazing people that I probably would not have ever found. I was especially moved by her discussion about care giving and knitting. I work in a busy hospital that is so stressful, very long shifts. I always bring a pair of socks to knit. When I sit, even for 15 minutes in a quiet room at the hospital and knit, I take a huge sigh and relax. I can hardly wait to buy her book! Thanks Fruity Knitting for another fabulous episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Jennifer. Taking the wool intended for her father and using it for the grandchild was so beautiful. Thanks for watching and for your lovely comments. A + A.
Fruity Knitting is about one of my favorite podcasts. I love the adventures you guys take us on. The music is perfect and visually your programs are stunning. You take me places I will probably never see. Your hikes through the forests in Germany and Wales (Mt. Snowden is stunning) and Shetland!! OMG!! The interviews with talented, interesting artists are wonderful. Keep up the good work. I will ALWAYS be a loyal fan.
P.S. I played piano from age 5 and piano and classical music will always be my first choice. (Jazz is #2) The music you choose is awesome. I LOVED the piece you chose for your Snowden hike and will be downloading it on my queue!
another awesome podcast -- thoroughly enjoyed the interview with Jen and Jim Arnall-Culliford, what a fantastic couple. I have the Year of Techniques on my wish list.
So fab to see Jen and Jim! I worked with Jen back when she worked on The Knitter and she's always been so supportive. Lovely to hear how their business has grown - so well deserved.
Great show. I absolutely loved the segment of Jen & Jim. I definitely will be obtaining their book as I am always interested in updating my techniques. They are both so well spoken and very articulate in their delivery. I definitely would love to take a class from them in person. Thank you for the segment.
Another great episode. Elvira not only made me laugh but also bought a tear. I care for my Father full time who has dementia .Going from such a busy working career many years before I would normally retire , knitting is such a comfort .I will definitely be purchasing her book. Good old shoulder shaping and backstitch! Your choice of music always fits so well . Many thanks both.
Hi Ann, yes we thought that there are probably quite a few of our viewers who have been or are in a similar care taking position as Elvira was in and are able to really relate to her story.
What a very inspiring episode! I liked all the items...a big compliment to you both! I had never heard before of Jen and Jim Arnall-Culliford but it inspired me to go on with new techniques. I gladly had joined their Year of Techniques. Have a good time together and till next podcast 🤗
I loved that piano piece! And all your music in every podcast. Those piano pieces reminds my mother playing piano in my childhood. Just hearing them makes me emotional. And I've learned so much of kinitting technics. Thank you!!
Miss(es) Woodruff, your story of the blue alpaca scarf you made for your father and than used the yarn for a sweater and hat for your newborn grandchild, it brought tears in my eyes. You are a great storyteller, makes me curious about your book, I hope I will be able to find your book since it's been a few years and I am living in Europe.
Having just learned - with some trepidation!- how to do German Short Rows on my very first garment I was very happy to watch you substituting them for wraps and turns; now I know I can translate any W&T pattern in future. Also... loved the Knitter of the World segment.. my mother is drifting away from us right now and this really resonated with me. Thank you for a great podcast.
Andrew, in the next episode you mention some of the comments that viewers made about your knitting speed (or lack thereof), and it reminded me of something that a knitting friend once said to me, after observing me knit with my right hand: "You go sooo slowly, but you never give up..." So carry on - your knitting is gorgeous, and I love the podcast and all of the information and inspiration that you and Andrea provide.
So happy to see a new Fruity Knitting Podcast ! Most enjoyable in every way! Your guests are always so interesting and I think you exceeded expectations in this episode! The only sad note is I am now caught up with all Fruity Knitting videos....☹️. Perhaps I will begin again with #1. Thank you!
So many good things in this podcast. Snowdonia looks so beautiful I wouldn't want to leave. I love Jack. He is so thoroughly enjoying himself whenever you film outdoors. Does he favour Andrew? He's always right next to him. It's very sweet.
Elvira Woodruff’s segment was such a fun surprise. As an elementary school Media Specialist/Librarian I was very familiar with her books written for children. I enjoyed them very much. I am looking forward to getting the knitting book. Thank you for your excellent work.
i love the mattress stitch. Ive made multiple sweaters that required shoulder seaming and binding off in steps. However, as a veterinarian, i do the mattress stitch daily (surgeons use it to close hollow organs and "invisible" absorbable skin stitches for incisions. GSR are by far my favorite short row variation and i think they leave less mess. Hey Sew Perfect purls From Atlanta!
Wow - I was drawn to your podcast because you use top quality classical music which is so unusual these days. You see, I am also a piano graduate - and I'm also married with one daughter (but no dog!), grown up and married herself now. She's not the slightest bit interested in knitting but she likes some of my layered crochet. Well done for persuading your husband to knit! My grandmother tried to teach my hubby years ago but he never really grasped it. I also tried so teach him the piano - it lasted a little longer than the knitting but he soon gave up. But hey, he's brilliant in other areas so I've resigned myself to being the only knitter in my family! Thanks for your podcast which I have just discovered. I'm enjoying exploring past episodes. I especially love it when you cover knitterly things going on here in the UK. Like the music, I think your podcast is top quality!
Lovely episode. The lake is like Mt Gambier. Have you ever been to the Mount in South Australia. A senseless firebug lit a fire this week on Centenary Hill. Now wildlife recovery underway.
I “hack” garment patterns all the time and now I have a schematic! A great BIG Thank You! I love German Short Rows over w&t. Wonderful episode, even if I have to watch it in sections! 🙋🏻♀️ from Karyn in the USA
Thank you for the shoulder shaping techniques, this was very helpful and I will definitely try incorporating the German Short Row style to make the shoulder look smoother with no holes.
18:12 I totally get that. Not a knit tea cosy but a pattern I saw on UA-cam: "Crochet a Teacup and saucer" by Bag-O-Day Crochet. After making one, made a gazillion more in different colors and different yarn and thread weights... Addictive patterns
Thanks for the cheat conversion sheet💗 I do not like W&T because of those holes. I had those on my 1st sweater and so I live with it. ms. Wood roofs interview was wonderful.
Hi James. It's Paris's Scarf by Nancy Marchant. You can find a short tutorial about the scarf in Episode 42 - ua-cam.com/video/PCQHwetkteE/v-deo.html and you can find an interview with Nancy Marchant in Episode 35 - ua-cam.com/video/yU4RTNysDt8/v-deo.html. It's a great project! Cheers, A.
Wow yet again great footage of Snowdon but no hand knitted coat for your dog ? May be a mission for Andrew. Very talented Andrea the way you adapt your patterns. From Amanda in Devon England x
Hi Amanda. Jack does have a hand-knitted coat that Andrea's mum made for him. There has been some talk about me making one. There are some great patterns around. I think Kate Davies has one... Thanks for watching.
I adore your show guys,I wish I had the money to help support you! I have watched all your episodes , but I can't remember which one deals with sweater waist shaping. I think you just used a smaller needle. If anyone who reads this knows the episode, I'd appreciate it. :}
Just as a tip, you can google "waist shaping site:fuityknitting.com" and it takes you to the episode! Yay Program Notes! There's also a search function at fruityknitting.com.
Your story about missing the last chord in your recital piece reminded me of my own college days. I'm a trombonist, and once in recital my eyes jumped from the bottom of page 1 to the top of page 2 of the piece I was playing. The bad part was that I dropped 8 measures/bars of the music. My accompanist scrambled a bit to find where I was, and we finished the piece together. After the recital she said to me in her beautiful Romanian accent, "You almost give me heart attack!" What music do you listen to while knitting? Bartok's "Bear Dance"? ☺
Hi David, Thanks for sharing your story. That has also happened to me as an accompanist, it certainly is nerve racking. Once that happened to me as a singer in a concert. The organist jumped forward and I had to second guess where he was and join in at the right section.
Love the hike portion this week. Love your little poodle (I have one too and she is 12 and still very silly at times) Loved the choice of music.LOVE it. I enjoy your..... but your information helps me be brave. I only view you and Espace Tricot from Montreal and they too are going to Edinburgh Yarn Event. My family are originally (Mother, Father, Brother) from Scotland and Ireland so I have been back several times and Love Edinburgh....and just an FYI; in Canada we are metric... actually Canada converted in the late 1960's early 1970's and I am one of the lucky ones that can work in both systems so when we go state side we are not lost in what is what. But Canada is Metric and my children only know metric and they are just as lost state side as the Americans are when they travel here or over seas. I hope to become a patron, but haven't crossed that bridge yet. Thanks again super job and all the best in all you do.
Hi Iris. We both have a history with poodles, so it was an easy choice for us. We got Jack in Leipzig, so we say he's East German. The imperial / metric thing is fascinating. I have heard that in America, the imperial measurements are actually defined in metric terms - as in, a foot is defined in centimeters... Thanks for watching. A + A.
That`s exactly how I always shape my shoulders. I also use a backstitch to sew shoulders together :-) So trusty and why change something that works ey ;-) Thoughts on "what if I had to give up either knitting or a husband": why make a comparison like that at all? Funny, how people always compare random things to each other and then justify one or the other as while they didn`t have to compare them in the first place ;-) ...........
Hi Andrea and Andrew. Thank you SOOO much Andrea for insisting that you use that most wonderful Scriabin Etude as the musical backdrop to your video of Snowdonia in the snow and ice. I absolutely love Scriabin in fact I think I must have had a Russian 19th century life because Russian music speaks to my soul; not just the Romantic works of Scriabin and Rachmaninov, Borodin and Rimsky Korsakov but also Russian religious and folk music. It makes me yearn, but for what I don't know. Thank you again.........@cazknitz on IG.
Ich kenne die German Short Rows als "Hasenohren", weil die Doppelmasche wie zwei Stehöhrchen aussehen ;) Selber verwende ich meistens die Technik, welche bei der Fish Lips Kiss Heel angewendet wird, sie geht auch sehr einfach und ist recht unsichtbar
I don’t know if "rabbit ears" is the correct and official name of the German short rows, but I like the idea behind it ;) (I am sorry, I should write in english so that everybody can read this)

I am more than 2 years behind but loving it all and learning so much.
Me too. Have to see all the episodes in sequence. Love it!
This is absolutely one of your best episodes, which is a feat considering you have around 200 really top notch episodes. Thank you for all you put into these.

another awesome podcast -- thoroughly enjoyed the interview with Jen and Jim Arnall-Culliford, what a fantastic couple. I have the Year of Techniques on my wish list.
Thanks, Lynne. Jen and Jim are so much fun.
So very happy that you didn’t change the music. I did enjoy it immensely and will be looking forward to hearing more from that composer.
So fab to see Jen and Jim! I worked with Jen back when she worked on The Knitter and she's always been so supportive. Lovely to hear how their business has grown - so well deserved.
I too enjoyed Elvira's segment with tears and giggles. Thanks for sharing...

I hope you continue to feel the love Andrew put into each of those stitches that became socks, hats and scarves.
Beautiful choice of music for the hiking segment - thanks andrea
The music is a deep and varied journey of adventure. Thank you for sharing. I learn so much from your work with every video. Beyond enjoyable✨
Thank you, little kitten!
What a great episode! Loved every bit of it! Good to see Andrew still knitting on his brioche scarf. I’m still knitting on mine too. :-)
On the last rows now!!!
You guys are awesome!! Keep up the good work. I always knit while watching your podcast. You inspire me on days when I have a knitting block.
Miss(es) Woodruff, your story of the blue alpaca scarf you made for your father and than used the yarn for a sweater and hat for your newborn grandchild, it brought tears in my eyes.

💕thank you Elvira Woodruff. So touching.
Your use of drone footage is so stunning, it could be a Visit Wales advert!
Hi, guys! Love your podcast! Especially enjoyed your explanation of the music. I always love your use of classical music, it’s so refreshing!
Thanks, Vivian. The music is really important to us, so it's lovely to hear that you're enjoying it. Cheers, A + A.

That's great that you know Elvira's books. Must have been fun to see her in a different context. Thanks for watching. A + A.
I just found the answer to my question, episode 22! Thanks again !
That birdsong ‘photobomb’ during the trench coat in the park section is priceless!!

This is the best episode so far (and they are all brilliant). Loved it! x
Thanks, Deanna. (-;
Очарована вышими выпусками. Спасибо за память о Скрябине.❤️❤️❤️
I will definitely have to check out the book. Lovely episode.
Thanks, Vonnie.
I always love your music and hiking segments!
Thanks, Nina. We love them too!! A + A
Thank you for the shoulder shaping techniques, this was very helpful and I will definitely try incorporating the German Short Row style to make the shoulder look smoother with no holes.
wow! what dramatic music loved it , and thanks for sharing x x
Thanks, Georgina. Good to have you along!
I love the white table beside your couch that can be seen during your interview with the technical editor
Snowden is and skrenabin-great match! So good.
Another great podcast!
Thanks, Pamela.
I bought Joji’s Ranch Coat pattern three weeks ago when I found it on Ravelry. Thanks for showing her description of the knitting style for this coat.
Thanks, Suzanne. It was great to see Joji's enthusiasm.
18:12 I totally get that. Not a knit tea cosy but a pattern I saw on UA-cam: "Crochet a Teacup and saucer" by Bag-O-Day Crochet. After making one, made a gazillion more in different colors and different yarn and thread weights... Addictive patterns
That was a good demo of the difference. Thanks hugs WAH.
I would have thought I'd died and gone to heaven if I could have even played the first line of that piano piece without any mistakes!!!
gorgeous piano music indeed!!!!
With all the knowledge in these episodes, someone should write an index!
"Jim! Jim! I can't sleep - I'm just too excited by tubular cast-on!"
The music was perfect for Snowdonia!
Thanks for the cheat conversion sheet💗 I do not like W&T because of those holes. I had those on my 1st sweater and so I live with it. ms. Wood roofs interview was wonderful.
The music was beautiful!
Thank you!
Thank you. Hugs & sunshine 🌞 N
Always learn from you. What is the pattern for Andrew’s sweater? Thank you.
Hello Andrea, there is also a very nice short row methodd from Carol Sunday.Thank you both for this great episode.
I love Andrew's brioche scarf. Where can I find the pattern?

Fruity Knitting Would you consider playing a short piece on the podcast some time? Maybe a couple of minutes of Scriabin or Rachmaninoff?
also very curious about the cute little clown that is being moved about in your videos. is there a back story? If so can you share it?
Love the hike portion this week. Love your little poodle (I have one too and she is 12 and still very silly at times) Loved the choice of music.LOVE it.

I have watching you from the beginning one question are you both Scottish But anyway love your show or podcast mary
Hi Ralph, no we are Australian but we are presently living in Germany. Andrew's family migrated from Scotland in the 19th Century.
Ich kenne die German Short Rows als "Hasenohren", weil die Doppelmasche wie zwei Stehöhrchen aussehen ;) Selber verwende ich meistens die Technik, welche bei der Fish Lips Kiss Heel angewendet wird, sie geht auch sehr einfach und ist recht unsichtbar
Yes, I think only English speakers call it German short rows. I was wondering what it's called in German, Thanks for saying.
I don’t know if "rabbit ears" is the correct and official name of the German short rows, but I like the idea behind it ;) (I am sorry, I should write in english so that everybody can read this)
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Accepted with thanks!
