I have loved your Hygge series and have tried to incorporate more of it this month. I am so thankful for your willingness to podcast in English. To get to know you and your knitting, countryside, etc. has been wonderful! Thank you! ~tiggrgirl
I totally agree with what Vanessa says below. These are wonderful little forays into "hygge." And about cinnamon rolls.... I used to make a Finnish variety, with cardamom and cinnamon many years ago. It is time to find my recipe, fondly remember Anitra who taught me how to make them, and get busy. Thank you so much, Ina, for this lovely series.
Thank you Ina! You are very gracious to speak English for all of us who do not speak Norwegian. I think you speak beautifully. Yes, so challenging to cook these days sometimes. Everything you make looks delicious!
Ina, as a French Canadian, I know exactly what you mean about not being as comfortable in English as in your mother tongue. And I want to thank you so much for doing your vlog in English. You share your culture as well as your passion for knitting, and I am sincerely grateful for that. And by the way, here in Montréal, Québec, the sun sets at 16h30, and it is -16 celcius today. The perfect situation for hygge! I love your vlog. Félicitations!
Thank You so much for doing your podcast in English. We are greatful. Your English speaking is just right,you give us a chance to experience your lifestyle and living in your country. I love it. I’ve come to understand that it’s hard to beat other women in other countries at their knitting. While not a competition I find you all to be so wonderful at your craft. Thanks for opening your door to your life, country, talents, and the world in which you live. These sort of blogs is like taking a few minutes with knitting friends around the world. We can learn from each other. So your English speaking so I may join you in a knit and a cup of Joe is fantastic, and you are good at it. I love your world and the scenery. Thank You again
Thank you Ina, I have throughly enjoyed your podcasts. I too am so grateful you podcast in English which you speak so well. I have loved seeing your beautiful country. I caught up with your Advent podcasts from last year and so enjoyed them too. Thank you and happy knitting. Shirley from UK.
Really lovely to see your beautiful country. I enjoy watching you knitting your socks and shawls with such pretty yarns. It is interesting to me to see how people knit in different countries and I like to try the different techniques. Thank you for sharing these things with us.
Thank you for your beautiful podcasts. You have a lovely accent and you sound very comfortable with the language. I have no problem understanding you at all, so you can be assured that you have a great grasp of the language. Knowing how difficult it is for you makes me appreciate them all the more!!

Viewed while sitting near the electric fireplace knitting a purple sock with late afternoon gray sky peaking though the brown oak leaves quaking in the wind. Tusan tak for the Norwegian break. Been so long since I wrote in anything but English but do understand . Kammebornia cast speaks in Swedish with English subtitles which is so much work but brings joy to me.
Hello Ina, Your English is fantastic!!! Thusand takk, that's as far as my Norwegian goes. I love Norway and wish I could speak Norwegian as you do English. I am sure I am not alone in being thankful that you are bringing us beautiful knits from beautiful Norway and podcasting in English. Thank you always for the time you put into your podcast and in the Hygge vlogs.
I appreciate your efforts so much! You do a very good job with your knitting and your English. I can see that you are a very good mom, wife, homemaker, and creator. Your videos are so inspiring. My daughter and I are doing more cozy activities now that it is cold and dark here. Thank you, Ina. Enjoy.
First of all...I love your podcast. Second, your English is perfect. I am also grateful you speak in English for us. Third...I have a daughter that is a vegetarian and it is challenging at time when it comes to making dinner. Enjoy being with your family. Thank you so much for sharing.
These videos make me so happy. I love to watch them when I'm drinking my coffee in the morning. A nice peaceful way to transition into my day. Thank-you!
This has been a lovely series! Thank you so much for doing it. Your English is excellent and I for one, am very glad you podcast in English. It is lovely seeing the area in which you live. I live in the north of England so we get about the same amount of daylight.
Hi Ina, thank you for bringing us another lovely podcast. I have really enjoyed your Hygge podcasts & I can only imagine how difficult it can be for you sometimes, I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your podcasts!! I have a fussy 3 year old so I know all about difficult meal times :) !! It's been really lovely getting to know you & your beautiful home....& those views are just amazing!!xx
I hope you continue to make these podcasts and vlogs because it is great to see a little of how other people in the world live their lives and the countryside is so very different to here in Western Australia. It is so lovely to visit Norway, albeit via your lovely podcasts. Add to this, I find you inspirational with your knitting projects and I have added many patterns to my files because of what you have been knitting. Thankyou Ina.
Like so many others have already said, Thank You for your Hygge series and for podcasting in English. We understand that it may not be as comfortable for you, but we appreciate your efforts and your English is really very good! It's lovely that you share your part of your world and your knitting with the rest of us ~ x (porthardy1)
Hi Ina, I really appreciate you taking the time to record you podcast in English, it’s really interesting to see Norway through your eyes. I love the sky shots in your video.
Dear Ina, I think we are all jealous of how well you speak English because most of us are not bi-lingual. Your hygge podcasts have been so relaxing and soothing -- perfect for this time of year. With Thanksgiving over, the mad rush of Christmas is upon us and, once the house is fully decorated, I am determined to sit back, knit and enjoy the holidays. I think we start decorating much earlier in the US than you do in Norway.
Ina! Your English is as good as mine and its the only language I speak! Don't be down yourself, girl! Also, can I straight up just have your kitchen? :D Holy cow, I would love to cook and bake in there!
ina, you have a better command of the english language than most americans. i understand the struggle though, as i've tried to speak another language, and everything seems to come out wrong. your last hygge video on your friends’ trip to your cabin really showed how beautiful you've made your homes. i wish there were an easy way to create videos, but i can't begin to tell you how much i enjoy the results :). have a happy 17 may!
Another excellent podcast. As mentioned by others l appreciate the effort of you speaking in English. I do speak a 2nd language and struggle to articulate in it sometimes. Over the past year you seem so much more comfortable in English. I really enjoy you sharing with us your beautiful country and life. Thankyou
Another great vlog! Now, all I can think of is cinnamon buns😍 I am an anglophone living in a francophone province in Canada so I can relate to how it is hard to truly express yourself in a second language. I find your English is excellent
Wonderful...your English is really good and your voice is so calm and you are super to share your life with us..thanks...Selbu looked very interesting.b
I am loving your podcasts and these glimpses into life in Norway. Thank you for speaking English - I admire anyone who can speak another language, let alone podcast in one! As others have said, do what feels comfortable and enjoyable, whether that is more chatting or more music. Either way, your videos are lovely, and the hygge ones especially are so calming! :)
Ina, I would just like to say how excellent your English is! I only wish I could speak another language so well. By the way, I have also gone through two girls who have been both vegetarians and vegans for large periods of their lives and it certainly does make meal planning difficult!
Here in Scotland we have a word for November weather, it’s 'dreich' meaning cold, wet and miserable. It also gets dark very early. Love the view from your window and loving your Vlogs. ❤️🌈
Thanks for your podcasting, especially the food. Salmon is right up my ally (Figure of speech). I too have problems with English and it is my first language. That was a lovely sunset, almost like sunrise here in Calgary this morning or was it yesterday. Whatever day, I took a picture. Have a great week Ina.
At one time in my life I did teach English as a second language in South Korea and I am always impressed by your vocabulary during each and every one of your episode. I am so glad that you chose to podcast in English, otherwise I would never have been able to follow along with you as I know not a word of Norwegian! Keep up I the great work! Your podcast is so fulfilling...especially during this month of hygge.
Always excited to see your podcast pop up. I agree with others that you actually have a strong hold of the English language. While I am sure it would be much easier to podcast in your native language, I appreciate that you are willing to podcast in English.
Hey Ina, honestly I would love to hear you in Norwegian and read english subtitles. As an german viewer this is how I watch most of my Netflix etc. and its much more intensiv to see people talk and act in their language!
Love these videos! I struggle with the lack of daylight also. Recorded an episode in record time yesterday and was completely nervous through out the whole thing to loose the little light I had. Your english is perfectly fine, but I get what you are saying.
In Scotland we have a word for November weather it’s 'dreich' meaning cold, wet, miserable and it gets dark early here as well! Love the view from your window and loving your little Vlogs!
This is so enjoyable. Your worries about not having the vocabulary for English should not concern you because it's remarkable that you do this podcast not in your mother tongue. Your shawl is turning out beautifully.
I love this segment you are doing on hygge and look forward to each episode! I think your English is fantastic and am so impressed that you speak it so well. Do you learn it in school in Norway? Your cabin is a dream. I hope you do vlogmas in December! Thanks for a peek into your wonderful way of life!
Dear Ina, I started watching your videos about two weeks ago. I am not much of a knitter, however, They are so beautifully done, I enjoy them very much. You seem a bit confused about your daughter being a vegetarian... don't be, just watch on you tube "Bosh", "Pick up limes", "Hot for food", "The happy pear". I also like "The minimalist baker" blog (excellent recipes) and even Martha Stewart has vegan recipes these days...Enjoy!
Hej Ina, jag har en svensk podcast och kände mig nöjd med det! På efterfrågan gör jag nu både en svensk och engelsk version, och som du säger så har det för och nackdelar 💕 kram Cia

I am enjoying your "one month of hygge" videos. You speak English very well. Was it hard to learn?
You speak English well, but I know what you mean.
