It is so lovely to see you back, I've missed watching your podcast! Up until the last episode, I was also going through your entire backlog so always had some fibertales to watch, so it was suddenly a long time for me.
You are so kind for sharing these gifts (and in the first place for sharing your great inspiration and designs with us)!
I have been wanting to get into natural dyeing a little bit, but I've not dipped my toes in yet because I feel like I don't really know where to start. I think this beautiful book would be the perfect resource to give me the little push I need. I think my main motivation to want to learn about dyeing yarn, is I've had this one thing on my 'bucket list' for probably half my life (and there's never been anything else on my bucket list) which is to be able to make myself a sweater where I do the entire process: shear the sheep, clean the fleece, card it, spin it, dye it, and then knit it into said sweater. So I have a lot to learn about dyeing in order to make something beautiful out of this project.
I’m retired from self -employed business ,, and my accounted told me the revenues are higher when you regularly take some days off . I used to not take days off at first ,but I learned that it was counterproductive as I was becoming tired ,less dynamic ,so less productive. But above all ; less happy ! So I took my accountant advise and went on Congresses trips , Weekend away , or vacations more often as he was exactly right financially speaking ,but the most important was the fact that this made my days so much happier as I was motivated most of the time .
When you are your own boss , you must be good to yourself as you would do with one of your employe. Thank you for sharing this shinning sparkle in your eyes and other things ....Take care 💕🧶🥰☕️🌈
What a wonderful podcast! Thank you so much for all your timer,effort and creativity! Love seeing your garden and knits!
Thank you for another lovely podcast that I have enjoyed while sitting at my loom on a rainy Sunday. The book sounds fascinating, I have a number of natural dye books in my fibre library, one day I hope to weave with yarn that I’ve dyed from locally foraged plants … my retirement goals!
What a wonderful treat, to see that you have this video out! I have missed your episodes, and have been hoping you would be back soon! You share your experiences with yarn and design so clearly and thoughtfully, and that makes me feel almost like I'm getting to just sit and have a conversation. I love your gro socks, especially in that beautiful deep reddish color! Your textured yoke is beautiful too. I do not live where I can grow plants for dying, but I do love learning about nature's generosity with color and materials. I will be looking forward to seeing you soon!
Your podcasts are always so inspiring Laerke, thank you ❤ I had a nice and cosy knitting evening watching this episode.
The book giveaway is such a beautiful gift ! A dear friend of mine has a small organic farm with 4 sheeps (and lambs from this spring 🥰). He gave me the fleece as he didn't want it to go to waste. I started the process of hand spinning the wool. This book would help me go further in the process and hand dye this special yarn with plants I can collect in nature. My plan is to knit a blanket for his baby coming up in May. A colorwork made with love would be lovely ! 😇
Thank You for your podcast as it inspires me to knit, crochet, and slow down and enjoy the process. What a gift to see beautiful Denmark in the Fall 🍁🇩🇰
Such a pleasure to watch a new episode
I would use the book for colour inspiration. I just love exploring colour combinations, and I find that diving deep into particular colours has a huge impact on my mood. So I have some special reference books that I like to look at whenever I feel the need for more colour in my life. This book would join that special collection.
Your trip to G-uld sounded so much fun! Oh to go on a roadtrip with a friend and find such yarny goodness at our destination point!
It is great seeing you again Laerke! I have been following you for a while now and I really enjoy your videos, I find them really soothing to watch and listen to (even when you talk fast). I have decided that I want to start knitting with more texture and your designs are great for that.
Last year I taught myself to spin yarns and this summer I started experimenting with dyeing yarn. So far I have mostly used food colourings to dye with, and now I want to start experimenting with plants and dried herbs. I have even dyed part of a sheeps fleece to see how the colour will turn out after combing and spinning the wool.
Another great podcast! I really enjoy listening to your soothing voice and watching your beautiful knits and yarns. Thank you for sharing your design journey; you are an inspiration to many of us. Can”t wait to see how your brioche sweater turns out.
Dear Laerke , thank you for another amazing episode! Always so soothing and natural! I love all of your designs ;) I dabbled a bit with natural dyes when I was in my early 20s, which was a lot of fun,... cooking up in my grandma's "Waschkueche" on a wood stove!
Now that I'm in my 50s (!!) I'd love to give it a go again and that beautiful book would be amazing to get into it again!
So nice to see another video pop up. It always makes me smile! I live in a beautiful Pacific Northwest where we have a lot of opportunity for natural dying. The book would be such a joy to begin. Blessings to you and thank you for another wonderful, relaxing video
What a lovely episode again. It gave me the opportunity to lower my stress level after a busy morning with the kids and get inspirated again.
Your trip reminds me of the Artist Dates that Julia Cameron recommends in her book The Artist’s Way. She also tells that if you don’t allow yourself some time off and have a date with yourself that it isn’t possible to get creative and inspired again. Thanks for sharing about your trip!
I would really love to win the book. We have a huge garden with all sorts of plants in there. I am sure that I could die yarn with some of those plants but I have absolutely no clue how to. The book would be a nice way to give that a go.
So good to see you podcasting again! I would love to learn more about wool and natural dying. You inspire me with your passion!
Soo wonderful to see you after all this time. Thank you for sharing your beautiful designs and adventures. Such special yarn and beautiful details. Blessings, from NZ.
I always look forward and enjoy your beautiful and very peaceful podcast. The book looks lovely, I am not a yarn dyer but I love reading and flipping through beautiful books. Thanking for sharing your time and your knitting 🧶💕
I love that natural colour yarn you are using for the yolk of your jumper. I usually prefer a lot of colour, but this tone was so lovely.
I love the intimate and cozy atmosphere you create with your videos and I am looking forward to that sweater design. It looks very promising.
I started learning how to spin my own yarn this year and it made me fall in love with more rustic wools. It is great to experience that there is much more variety than merino and alpaca. I would love to learn more about dyeing next year. I know I have some plants in my garden that can be used for dyeing like elderbushes and golden rod, so winning that book and read it over the winter would be a good foundation to get me started next spring.
Hi Lærke! I enjoyed seeing you again! Your podcast always makes me smile 😃! I love your new sock pattern. Good for you for getting together with a friend and going on a trip:-) It sounds like you had a lot of fun. The sweater that you're knitting/designing has such a beautiful yoke. I love the texture that's created by the different stitches that you've chosen. Thank you for sharing your knitting journeys with us! Take care 🙂. Kat
Your filming is always so beautiful, thank you for sharing! Especially love the garden footage. Excited for the new yoked sweater you’re designing ❤️
Lovely to see you Lærke! I have the perfect yarn in my stash for a pair of Gro Socks ☺️ Your trip sounded wonderful 💗 The book would be a lovely addition to my little collection of creative books. I would use it for inspiration and I’d be interested to read about the different types of wool/sheep. Take Care x
Watching you is always an inspiration. Beatifull garments and wool 😀
Receiving the book would be a great way to learn more about colour and natural dyeing.
Thank you for the lovely knitting time 😀
I am so happy to see your new video. I love all of your designs and makes. I am a beginner knitter and find your videos inspire me to learn as much as I can. I have dabbled with natural dyeing but would love to learn more about the plants used and about the different sheep breeds. It's really great to see you back and look forward to watching you xx
Welcome back :) as a botanist and a knitter, natural dyeing fascinates me, and I am always interested in how one can use plants. And a whole book about it is just fantastic.
I love learning about natural dyes and like you am very interested in the colors you can produce from different plants- it can be so surprising! Cheers, Kate
Hi Laerke,
Thanks for sharing. I love your natural ascetic. I would love a copy of the natural dye book, I have be fascinated by natural dyes for years, mainly lichens and fungus I collect in the woods. I am just starting to grow some dye plants, I just transplanted some madder, and have weld also.i live in British Columbia, Canada on a small island, and find it interesting how universal the mushrooms 🍄 and lichens are around the world. So much fun🙂, I am going to look at your designs on Ravelry now. I also spin wool from our island and have two angora bunnies 🐰,and I comb and blend into our local Romney and Romney cross fleeces I have access to.Good luck figuring out the back of your sweater😜
I love your videos. I love that cardigan and socks. I would enjoy the book because I love learning new things.
It’s so sweet of you to extend the pattern discount for fall 🍁. I just purchased three patterns and can’t wait to finish my current wipe to cast on one of your designs. My favorite is the Humlebi Shawl 🐝🍯. Your videos are inspiring and lovely. Thank you for the pattern discount!
I have missed you ! It was so happy for me to see how you came to life when you mentioned your fellow yarn lovers and dyers .... I was lucky enough to win I would use the book to inspire me to use the flowers and plants around me to experience a new skill and start to dye with the wool from this area .
Thank you again ...
Good to see you again. So far, I love the pattern on the new yoke you've started. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished project.
Another lovely episode! Thank you for taking the time to update us on your knitting/designing.
I have grown many dye plants this summer, and have been drying them for winter use. I would love to add this book to my growing dye- library. Hope you have a lovely fall! Good luck finishing stubborn designs, that brioche cardigan is lovely- can't wait!
Its always a pleasure to look at your podcast, its been a while but always a joy . I just love natural yarn, i am learning to spin and will be learning to dye. H appy knitting till we see again.❤
I am from New Zealand - it is so nice to hear that you can buy our beautiful yarn in Denmark. I hope you enjoy working with it. Best Regards, Helen
I love your podcast and all your designs. Looking forward to seeing your cardigan after you have changed the back, it looks amazing.
Thank you
I love your new design in progress, the off-white top-down sweater. Look forward seeing it completed!
As a knitter and a gardener this book would make a fantastic contribution to my bookshelf. I would use it to incorporate some new plants in my garden and try out natural dyeing!
Your podcast is always like a ray of sunshine. And your designs so beautiful. I love your country and seeing what grows there. I was there in June and had the most amazing weather. I was knitting the Humlebi shawl then. Looking forward to your pattern discount! I'm headed back to Denmark in two weeks and can't wait to see what it's like this time of year. The book looks gorgeous. I would use it to learn about the different types of wool and Danish dye plants.
I find your podcasts so inspiring. Love your choice of colours and yarn!! Thanks for so many great ideas, and also the fall discount on the patterns. I am very appreciative of the discount! Would love to have that gorgeous Guld book. So much to learn about yarn!!! Greetings from Canada!!
Thanks for such an inspiring video Lærke. It's always so lovely to see what you working on. I always get so cozy with a cup of tea and my knitting watching your podcast. The videos you making are such a pleasure for an eye in therms of aesthetics and I simply love their mood. I would be the happiest to win the book, partially because of it's beautiful design, but mostly because natural dyeing is something that I wanted to try for a long time, but it always seemed like a challenge to get started. So I trust that this book will push me forward to finally experiment with wool dyeing.
It's such a pleasure to see you again, Lærke. Your designs are always so beautiful and thoughtful in every element. Good luck working out that back detail. I thought the fix you had looked good, but I can understand needing it to be just exactly right. Cozy knitting time is upon us! I've found that in addition to needing to put aside cotton and linen projects that I had lined up, I don't even have that much interest in accessories now that the weather has cooled. It's time to cast on for a wool sweater!!
So glad to start the day with a new video, it’s a joy! Here in Portugal it still feels a lot like summer but I’m longing for that cozy weather, rain, knit and tea ❤️ I have a couple of yarn balls that I bought long time to start dyeing but I keep postponing it for some reason, maybe because I like to read about what I’m going to try new and I haven’t got any book about natural dyeing, maybe now is the time 🤞🏼 thank you for your designs and videos 😊
Love the natural color sweater you are designing. Can’t wait to see it completed.
Always nice to see your videos and yes, we get inspired by meeting other creatives. Not sure if the book can be sent internationally, but I am an experimental natural dyer so this would be a super addition to help me use some plants I may not even know of. IN my country natural dyeing is not well known and most people do not even know what I am talking about, so most of what I do, is just trial and error, so I always welcome any information on natural dyeing
It was so good to see you again. I would use the book as a resource to learn about the dying process and different types of yarn.
Great to see you again! Love your content, so much inspiration. Thank you so much. I just starting natural dying, I love to use this book for learn more about dyeing, to learn more about the historic aspects of dyeing, and learn more about collecting plants myself during long and short hikes. Your purchases are so beautiful. So grateful. 💕💕
I could not agree with you more on the statement of knitting MOJO coming back as the weather is changing. The projects and yarn are so beautiful and inspiring.
So happy to see your UA-cam video, you are one very busy lady, now I must get back to knitting my socks. 🧶
Hi Laerke! It's so good to see your here again :) I like to watch your videos whenever I want more calmness and relaxation, and I'm so glad that you are back ;) And this book for giveaway is so inspirational! I want to know more about natural dyeing, and also to learn new things about plants! Have a nice day, Laerke 🤍 Best wishes from Ukraine ✨
It was so nice to see you again and everything you share.
What a lovely catch up!
The book sounds wonderful and I would use it to inspire me to start natural dying from plants in my garden 😁
Ohhhhh Beautiful everything! I am glad its podcast season for you again, I missed your podcasts! I love the look of that book, I would definitely try dying a skein of two with that as my guide!
Another beautiful episode! I love the gro socks so much. Your trip to the yarn store sounds lovely and the book also looks magical. I would love to read it and learn more about natural dying in your region of the world 🙂
I just found your channel. Love your white sweater yoke example. That herringbone detail in the middle is beautiful. I will have to learn that stitch!
So nice to see a new episode!
I’m experimenting with natural yarn dying, so this book would be really useful to understand and learn more about it.
So lovely to see a new video from you! I am very much looking forward to seeing the design you showed us a sneak peek of, with the textured yoke. It looks so beautiful and exactly the kind of thing I like to knit. The book you shared looks very interesting! I do not know much about dyeing and so I am very curious to learn more about it.
I am fascinated about natural dyes, and often wonder how yarn was dyed in historical times xxx
Hi Lærke, when you put off the Gotland jacket the front part of your dress reminded me to the construction..... love from germany 💚🌳💚
Hello-not a book comment, but I just wanted to say how stunning your two new designs-in-progress are, and that I really hope you will feel inspired to keep moving them forward!
What a pleasure to see you again! Since my maternity leave I have been experimenting with natural colors now and then.
I would love to deepen my knowledge. Greetings from Leipzig, Germany!
Thank you fot knitting company! I have dyed some yarn few years back but I feel more the information I can get the better! Enjoy the autumn!
Hi Laerke! It's great to see you back to podcasting! Those Grow socks are so gorgeous!
Love the socks! I just retired and hope to spend a lot of my time knitting and painting. I took advantage of your three for two pattern special - thank you! Keep up the good work!
So glad to see you and your knitting! I knitted all summer, making socks !
I am learning about & planting wildflowers for next spring in my area. This book would be lovely to learn about wildflowers and plants in a much colder part of the world.
Lovely to see you again. You certainly are a busy lady.
I've seen the book on their Instagram page. It's beautiful, and would be a lovely acquisition. That yoked sweater is looking beautiful.
I have my first fleeces from my 4 Finnsheep that I am hoping to dye . I love the idea of sustainability and am excited to spin an dye my own wool. Your designs and podcast are so inspirational.
It is so nice to see you again ❤ This textured yoke is so beautiful! I tried natural dyeing last summer, it is so much fun, I would love to read more about it. Have a lovely autumn!
Sat here with Covid and my knitting. Thank you for keeping me company. My 18 Yr old knitting mad daughter would love the book, she's interested in sustainable fashion, and how colours/yarns can be made as naturally as possible.
It was so nice to see your video come out. Your cardigan and yolked sweater are both beautiful! I love the idea of the dyeing book as well. I would use the book to help me find some interesting European plants to dye some wooly yarns with!
So nice to hear from you! I love your garden tours - it looks magical to me. The book would be an inspiration to me for the colors and plants. I don’t know much about dyeing but think this would be a nice place to start learn😀
What i would do with the book : my favorite yarndyer in Belgium is taking a short break because of soms heatlh issues, this would be the perfect gift to suprise & spoil her and yesssss : she would love that book !!!! And i' m very glad to see you back in podcast-land, thank you for the nice talk, ideas and for showing your garden !!!
So great to see you here. ❤️
Laerke, I really like the sweater that you knit. I don’t mind the seam in the back. I look forward to seeing the rest of the sweater that you have started.
That is a beautiful book! I've just become interested in natural dying. The cardigan you're knitting is beautiful!
Thank you for new episode! Book can give me inspiration and maybe I can find some new colors to try on.👍
Finally your videos out. It was wonderful listening to you 🥰
I was so happy to see you had podcast again. Your new cardigan design is so pretty. I love the yarn you showed from Guld and if I won the book, I would use it to add to my (very basic!) knowledge of natural dyeing. I took a course on natural dyeing this summer and so enjoyed the experience. Looking forward to seeing your new designs.
It was nice seeing you and your lovely garden.
I am looking forward to seeing your new yoke design - it looks lovely.
Thank you for another lovely episode! I agree with you that it is important to take time to just be in order to nurture creativity and inspiration. I enjoy naturally dyeing alot, actually have a bath on the go with Alkanna tinctoria right now. Hoping to get a dark purple. I would use the book to learn more about what plants to use and how. Living in Sweden the flora is similar to Denmarks so I think I will be able to find the different plants. Hope you have a nice and cozy autumn and thank you again for this podcast.
Lovely podcast. I like the way you carry motifs through more than one pattern, beautiful textures and shapes.
The book looks beautiful. I am just getting into plant dyes and love learning which plants to use 💚
I had an eye on this book since I heard it will be released in English. In the last two years I did a lot of natural dyeing experiments with nettles, madder, walnut or birch bark. I love what colors nature creates and definitivly want to learn more about natural dyeing.
I have always wanted to learn how to dye yarn. I have been knitting and crocheting since I was a small child, making my own designs since I was in early adulthood, and think it would be so amazing if I could dye my own yarn. Dying naturally would be fantastic to learn!
Just sitting here knitting some socks (I always use sock yarn wih nylon too) with my recent experiment in hand-dyed wool. I am just starting to explore, but I love natural dye colors. The kind of muted tones are just so soothing and stunning. I would love to read more about that so I could start experimenting with natural dying rather than acid dying! Have a wonderful day!
Beautiful episode as usual! And I would love that book! I have some undyed wool that I’ve been wanting to learn how to dye naturally so this would be amazing timing! And thank you so much for the discount on the patterns!
This was so pleasant! I would probably use the book to dye my handspun yarn. I think a copper color would be lovely
Oh I'll love this book, I'm fascineted by plant dye and I will be very happy to use it for my own yarn💛
The yoke sweater is so beautiful ..... i am waiting for the pattern .....love
What a pleasure see you again! Love that new yoke in your new pattern and I will wait patienly until we can enjoy in Raverly. Finally I tried to dye natural yarn just this summer picking some summer leaves in the forest and reusing some bouquet of wild flowers I picked too. I was lucky to buy two pair of kilos of wool fromsheep called Xisqueta in our Spanish Pirinees mountain. It’ s a local sheep , some rustic but very warm to protect from cold weather in the mountains. Sería fantástico poder jugar con nuevos tintes en esta lana de productores locales que parece que dejarán de producir por el alto coste de producción. Tuve suerte de conseguir esta lana virgen porque quizá ya no haya más. Sé que entenderás mi español como profesora que también lo has enseñado. Saludos desde Madrid otra vez, algo fresco pero todavía con restos del caluroso verano.
Enjoyed your podcast, as always! The more I knit, the more I want to know about different wools, how they behave in knitted garments, how they take dye, plants used in the process. I think the book would be very interesting for all of this information.
Hi Laerke, I’ve recently started dying with plants, and am enormously inspired and I would LOVE to have this book❣️
Thank you for your inspiring episodes, I’m always looking forward to see them.
Greetings from a rainy Sweden
Beautiful knits and yarn. I am a primary school teacher, and so I would use the book for doing some natural dyeing with my students. I have been saving a number of natural items (e.g. onion skins, avacado skins and pits) for awhile with the intention of doing this, and will use this book as inspiration for plants to choose for my garden next year for future dyeing. Thank you also for the discount. I know I want to make your Humlebi shawl (I love bees!), so I will have a look at your other designs as well and try to make a choice.
It's good to see again🙂❤️
I would likely try some of the methods for dying yarn and add the book to my collection of knitting books❤️
Beautiful episode as always, Lærke. I would use this book as inspiration for dye plants to put in my garden. For dyeing yarn and fabric 🤍
So lovely to hear from you again. Your grey cardigan looks so squishy and that new cream coloured sweater looks beautiful! I would love to use the book for wool and breed information. Thank you for the giveaway opportunity.
Hi Laerke a beautiful podcast I enjoyed the autumnal tones throughout. Your new sock pattern is beautiful definitely on my to do list...Elizabeth watching from Ireland
So excited to see you back recording! Thank you for a lovely episode and what a lovely store G-uld looks like! The book sounds beautiful! I have only ever tried dyeing with onion skins so I would love the inspiration to experiment again ✨🌿
Oh the book looks amazing! I’d be very interested in learning about plant dying especially on different animal fibers!
It's nice to see you back. Your Gotland cardigan is gorgeous!
