What a lovely podcast! Really appreciate you showcasing our beautiful country and all the independent local yarn shops and lovely yarns.
Thank you Lisa and also for buying me a coffee! Hug 🤗
O, Leanne, thank you for another very lovely visit. Thanks to you, I also feel this is a group of friends. 🥳 I really like how you give shout-outs to designers, dyers, and shops, and especially how you educate viewers about indigenous peoples and their relationship with the land, which is different than I thought. I learn so much from you. I am truly moved by your sharing about some amazingly supportive efforts helping others. Bravo! I too am knitting leg warmers, 80s style in purple of course, as a gift to my trainer, right?👌 😁 She'll do me proud!! And Yaaay for all those rich amber golds 😎 😍😘
Huge thank you Desiree for this encouraging message! Wind beneath my wings today … LOVE that we are doing our part to bring the 80s back! 😂 “She’s a maniac.. maaaaniac on the floor”
Thank you for this lovely cowl pattern !
You are VERY welcome! 🤗
Thanks for a lovely way to start my Saturday with you, knitting and drinking coffee.
Have a great weekend.
☕️ 💗
Thank you!Your shows are getting better and better!
Yay! Thanks Wilma!
Lovely knits and yarns. Thank you for sharing them and showing us Regina. Take Care.
Thank you Donna 🤗
I love the Golden Dickey- I think it would make a lovely vest as well- the collar and shoulder stitching is lovely♥️
Thank you Donna! I do have 2 skeins of Malabrigo in the colourway Pearl, and that would definitely be enough for a vest 🤍
I love when you tell us the history of the land that you are visiting and their original inhabitants.
Thank you Jackie!
Your explanation of the land acknowledgement is probably the best description I've heard.. thank you so much for sharing that.
That is SO wonderful to hear. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your support Leanne! We SO appreciate you and hope to see you in Eswatini again sometime soon. 😊♥
I love the deep story of Grace and miracles that has been consistent during the development of HFA, and continues!A piece of my heart will remain in Eswatini. Would love to come back!
Not a knitter but so love all of this. Inspired always. And your calm demeanour is magical.
♥️
The education also on the acknowledgment of Indigenous Land.
🙏🏻
Thank you
💖💖 Thank you Talia ✨✨ (((hug)))
Another beautiful podcast. Loved your FOs, your wee trips and learning more about you and your family and generous spirit. Many thanks
Thank you so much for this very kind message! 🤗
Thank you for another inspirational podcast, Leanne. ❤
Thank you Deborah 🤗
Thank you, Leanne, for your podcast. I love the piece you were wearing at the beginning of the podcast. It looks so warm and a great addition to a jacket in the fall. I am knitting "Autumn Comes" by Lisa Hannes. It is such a beautiful scarf and totally reversible. I am using a lace weight yarn and mohair held together. So delicate looking! It is a gift for my sister. I hope she loves it as much as I do knitting it! Thanks again for sharing various cities in Canada with us. "May your knitting be filled with joy and confidence". A quote from Amber of Sun Dragon.
I’ll bet your sister LOVES the Autumn Comes! So stylish! I really like that quote a lot 💗
I am I bed with a morning coffee actually knitting a dickie for my son-in-law. Love yours!
In my hotel room (work trip), watching your podcast and knitting away! Thank you!
Hotel knitting!! My favourite!!
Love the projects, and Hearts for Africa. What a great way to show us what's available for thoughtful gifts. I really appreciated that. Got the cowl to for swatching and the cause. Take good care! - Kimberly
Knitters changing the world! Happy knitting Kimberly 💗
Thanks a bunch. We're having a gloomy Saturday so it was nice to have a little knitting journey with you. You always have so many interesting things to check out.
Thanks for travelling with me Bernadette! I love gloomy days. I think I should’ve been born on an island near the sea.
TY for sharing your time with us again, Leanne. I like your phrase "honor myself". A dickie looks perfect under the jacket- no bulky sleeves or too warm with a full sweater. Stay well.
Thank you Anne 🤗 Happy Knitting!
Hi Leanne, I love that Dickey and the color! I too, have been slightly obsessed with yellow. I just finished a bright yellow hat - pattern mouton noir - out of Julie Asselin’s boucle. It’s that nice pop of color.
I’ve also started a baby blanket - Walt Chevron - for a baby due this month😅.
My Ranunculus sleeve is in WIPs, and so is my eccentricity shawl. They are both too hard 😭
❤❤❤
Thanks for another fabulous podcast and I loved the show and tell!
Thank you Kel !! Hope all is well at your end !!
Leanne thank you for such a lovely, informative and inspirational podcast! Love and look forward to
Seeing you❤
Thank you Elaine 🤗 ☕️
So wonderful to learn about Heart for Africa too! ❤
🤍
I am so happy evertime I see that you uploaded a new episode. Love your & Creabea cowl patterns. Lots of inspiration!
Aw thanks Celia 🤗 that makes me happy!
Thank you for sharing so much knitted inspiration!
Thanks for watching Joyce!
I always love your informative podcasts Leanne. Thank you so much
Thank you Beth I appreciate that!!
Thank you once again Leanne. I love travelling with you. Your Zweig is going to be amazing in that colour way. I love those orange colours of Arcane. Happy travels!
Thank you so much! I’m having a blast working on it.
Oh my goodness, that yarn for your Zweig lace portion is gorgeous!
Barbara I literally couldn’t stop working on the lace portion … loooove the Blazing Birch and pattern a LOT 🧡
I knew that was Frank Ochre the moment I saw you on screen. It’s my favorite colorway of all time. It’s what happiness would be if you had to assign a color to it, at least for me. It looks beautiful on you, Leanne!
Ahhh yesss you are my people… Frank Ochre could definitely be the colour assigned to happiness 🥹💛
Love the Dickey! We had them …. And we wore them when I was growing up. Yup I am a kid from that generation, lol. They are so awesome. You are an outstanding knitter. So enjoy all of the content in your podcasts. Thank you.
Thank you JACLevair! I am giving the gold one back to my sister and making another one! Let’s totally bring the Dickey back into fashion 😆. Thanks for watching 🤗
What a lovely find: thank you. Have a safe flight.
Thank you Marlene for finding me! 🤗
Awesome podcast, thanks so much for taking us out and about your beautiful country. All the facts are so interesting.
Thank you Rosemary for travelling with me !! Love Canada so much.
Thank you Leanne for another lovely podcast. I love the Golden dickie! Wow 2:55 am wake up call! Enjoyed the trip to Regina❤️🧶
Dickies for everyone !!! Thanks for continuing to travel with me Susan!!!
Haha, I too gave up on the Westknits KAL, aside from being fiddly...I knew I wouldn't wear this shawl. Nothing wrong with honoring yourself. Now you have beautiful yarn for some other project! Safe travels Leanne!
Thank you Zerlina! I hope you have some knitting time for yourself this weekend 🤗
Very enjoyable episode seeing the sights or Regina and you makes and makes in progress.
Thanks for travelling with me Lisa! 🤗
You are absolutely delightful!! I cannot express how much I enjoy your podcasts. Thank you so much for sharing. Blue skies and tail winds for you!! 🛫
Wow 🤩 what a lovely message thank youu!!! I LOVE that blessing “blue skies and tail winds” ✈️💗
Hi Leanne, so nice to see you again and bring me back to Canada. Regina looks so peaceful. I'm knitting my daughter a sweater in the same brown in alpaca and I just bought plant tables in the same curry colour. I had to laugh . Thanks for the new episode, you're simply the best ! Hugz 🥰
Whoa! We are on the same knitting frequency! Thanks for the message 🤗
Hi Leanne/ great knitting with you tonight… totally understand frogging a project of it is “just NOT your happy place”… so much beautiful knitting and not enough time so knowing what works for you is super helpful to keep it fun. Thinking your colour is “honey” or “gold”! All your knits are lovely and your design is fantastic- thank you for designing👏👏👏👏. My Cousins live in Regina so have been a few times… but too cold in the winter. Brrrr!. Safe travels and look forward to your next Vlog 🤗
Thanks for knitting with me Linda! I am looking forward to knitting with you from home as I’m off this weekend 🙌🏼 I love Saskatchewan but oh yes them prairies are ccccold in the winter eh? 🥶
The Dickey is great! I’m going to try it today. Thank you for your unique knitting podcast!
This is exciting news! Let me know how it goes!
I need a sweater in the color you are wearing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Then I realized it’s a collar and I need the exact same thing. Thanks for your endless inspiration 😊
That gold on you would be amaaaaazing! Ooohh as the Sari N cabled collar or sweater! Thanks for hanging with me! 💛
Watching from Newfoundland Canada, December 17/ 2022. So glad to find a Canadian knitter
Hi Judy! We Canadian knitters are drawn to each other like magnets! Thanks for watching. Where in Nfld are you?
Another beautiful podcast. I love learning about cities in Canada. And now I want to knit another “Dicky”😮
Dickies for everyone!!!
Thank you again for an amazing and informative podcast inspired by all your projects❤❤
Thank you Nancy for travelling with me!
Lovely as always Leanne and I love that you put maps in. I have no idea where anything is so it helps! Wow Regina was interesting, thanks for taking the time to film and curate all this. Africa! Thanks for sharing all that too. (great gift ideas) and 60 hats, that was so lovely. Life can be full of such contrast and I learned when I was a young teenager (we travelled) how fortunate I was and that it should never be taken for granted and I raised my children with this exposure as much as I could too. They are kind, generous souls that make my heart sing. MKAL - ha ha what a ride, my first and I finished and know if I saw it I would not have chosen to knit it, but I love it, because it was so fun and not knowing what was going on was hilarious and worst case, rip it. Yarn is so magical like that, not like sewing! Gave my family endless hours of confusion as I'm quite the control freak, I prefer to call myself "in charge" but whatever! Happy knitting and thanks once again for the joy, Karen x
Hi Karen 👋🏼 I really love your feedback on the podcasts. I hope you know how much it means to me that you spend your time engaging with this channel. And hey.. this world needs those who are geared toward being “in charge” 💗🤗
Enjoyed finding your podcast! Regina is my home. Yarn Over is my local. And I love the mustard/gold/ochres so beautiful! Thanks for featuring this amazing place. I have traveled the world and always come home feeling like we have the best of everything. Clean air, safe neighborhoods, affordable life, music, food, sports, art and knitting!!! I just got into spinning to support my yarn habit 😅
Hi there! Welcome welcome! I am so glad the UA-cam recommended my Channel to you in YQR. Saskatchewan in general is so amazing and comforting to me. I think it might be time for me to do a roadtrip down to Estevan to visit my remaining relatives there. I just got myself an e-spinner and after a rough start I seem to be catching on… maybe 🤷♀️.
Bonjour Leanne, great video as usual. What a great heart you have!
Merci Lucie! 🤗
I knit a Zweig during lockdown and I love it so much! I really enjoyed knitting it. I hope you do, too. Thank you for another wonderful episode. I really enjoy watching you.
Thank you Michelle. I have yet to get a message about Zweig that isn’t positive 👏🏼… so far I’m having a blast knitting it.
I love traveling through Canada with you. So many places that I haven't had the opportunity to visit. Love your podcast. Kim
Thank you Kim! Loooove your Slanting Slipover, btw!
I don't think I have seen a colourway yet that I don't like from Arcane Fibreworks. Absolutely stunning. Can't wait to see your lace work in your Zweig.
Right!? His colours are soooOoo good! 👌🏼
I love the Drops Collar/Dickie. You gave me a wonderful idea for a Christmas gift or 2, 3😊
Bonnie this gold Dickey is going straight back to my sister.. she LOVES it. Such a great gift.
Another lovely episode. Thank you so much. 😊
Thank you so much Shannon 🤗
So lovely catching up with you Leanne 😊 Your Travellers Cardigan turned out so beautifully and what luck having similar colours of unspun to save the day! Looking forward to seeing your Zweig knit up with the Burning Birch colourway 😍 Thank-you for sharing about Heart for Africa and your personal experiences travelling to Swaziland. I found it very touching and inspiring 🤗💕
Thank you Nikki! The unspun from Woollentwine working as a stand-in for the Skrymsle Nutiden is a bonafide miracle in my books! 😂 Cannot stop knitting on the Zweig! Such a great pattern!
This was a wonderful journey to Regina with you and your knits. You have so many talents and make this seem easy. We all know that this takes a tremendous amount of organization, planning, enthusiasm and skill. Thank you!💗
Aw thank you! It’s a pleasure!
Greetings from Maryland where it is unseasonably warm. As I listen and watch I am finishing a trivet knit with hand spun yarn which I will felt as a holiday gift. I loved knitting my Zweig and know you will too! Each and every episode is “Pure Joy” to sit and knit with you. I appreciate the time you take to help us learn more about Canada. Thanks 🙏
@@theknittystew 😊
Thank you so much Pat! We had a lovely fall and then whammo.. winter slammed in one day! I appreciate you travelling with me 🤗
I loved knitting Zweig!
Yay! I’m having a blast working on it so far!
Wonderful podcast Leanne, as always. ❤
Thank you Pati! You are so kind to say 💓
Thanks for another great podcast. I always love the extra video content of the towns you visit and their history. Your knita are beautiful too.
Thank you Solange for your kind words!! 🤗 Happy Knitting!!
I agree with Lisa, such an awesome podcast! How could we ask for more, seeing all neat places in our Canada and all the lovely yarn shops. I met you in Regina and have binge watched you for 2 days now. So much information, so many patterns. Don't ever stop. I am in Prince George BC
Hi Laurie! Thank you for bingeing! 😆 I am honoured!
Absolutely the best in vlogs, love each and every one of them. Dont know how you find time to accomplish so much. Thank you so much for your visits around the cities you visit.
Heather what a lovely message! So far I’m managing to find balance between work, knitting and family… my housework is actually suffering (dust bunnies everywhere!) but I’m not feeling bad about it. 😃 Happy weekend to you!
Another great episode, thank you! I love seeing your shots of Canada 😊 Your mustard colour cowl/bib was fabulous - Malabrigo is a beautiful brand.
Thank you Susan 🤗 ☕️!!
Thanks for explaining about the land acknowledgment, it makes sense now that I think about it.
Thank you! A lightbulb went on for me when I heard this gentleman Stephen Paquette speak about it: ua-cam.com/video/_HtG7j19na4/v-deo.html
Hi Leanne! I love all the makes ❤ - thank you for all the advice on the un-spun yarn cardigan. I really appreciate the helpful messages you sent me on working with “Cotton Candy” (“Fairy Floss” to Australians…😂)
Awesome! Thanks for this lovely message. Yeah, I’m still trying to get my bearings with this Fairy Floss myself 🤎
I think the Canadian tourist board should start sponsoring your great podcast! Every time I watch I get the traveling bug 😊 Only set foot in 🇨🇦 once (almost literally - walked across the bridge from 🇺🇸at the Niagara Falls) and I’d love to make a real trip there some day - to explore and buy yarn. Kind regards from 🇸🇪
Aw yay! I love hearing that. I love Canada so much!
Brilliant video I really enjoy your content did a knit along while you were blethering looking forward to the next… take care x
Thank you for spending your time here !
Another great podcast Leanne! It is a lot of work for you and they are so informative and well organized. Love the 'travelogs' you include of the adventures you have on your work travels. You clearly enjoy your job & your knitting hobby very much! Best of both worlds! I have intended to knit the Zweig for some time -the roadblock is choosing the right colours for such a monumental project. Continued safe travels and I look forward to seeing whatever you share with us in future!
Thank you so much for that encouragement 🌟 I feel like making yarn choices and choosing colours takes me longer than actually getting the projects done. 😆 Have a wonderful weekend!
Thank you so much for your lovely podcast. I love the projects and the inspiration that you provide. I'm knitting socks for Christmas and hope to do a cowl or two. I knit the Zweig shortly after it was released and I used a commercial black yarn for the body and a very special hand dyed yarn I bought in Paris. I get compliments whenever I wear that sweater. It's a memory from our trip to France and I always reflect on the shop where I found the yarn and the long walk to find it.
Loooove that when a knit has wonderful, sentimental memories attached to it whenever worn. We knitters are so lucky!
I have made your cowl patter several times….thank you for sharing your talents ❤your podcast and travels to the yarn shops…
Awesome! This is so nice to hear 🤗
Donna from Blind and Knitting recommended your podcast. I watched one, then had to binge watch the rest. So interesting to see the places you visit. Adding the maps is a great idea. Wonderful knitting projects which you explain really well. Many thanks, Jazell.
Thank you Jazell I really appreciate that! And thanks to lovely Donna @blindandknitting for mentioning me!
It’s so nice to spend some time with you again. I think today your podcast was very special and I’m gave me lots to think about. Thank you for being so interesting as well as informative! Have a great day!
Hello Michelle thanks for your thoughtful message and for spending your time watching!
Please come to Yarn Over again. Brianna has created a wonderful community . Many of us watch your channel. Brianna also had the Queen City Fiber Festival, which supported a number community groups. It would be fun for you to see all the changes.
Yay!! This is so wonderful!!
I just discovered your channel in the last couple of weeks and you've been keeping me entertained as I pack up my home and family to move to pastures new. When you mentioned Malabrigo there, I had to comment. I had just bought a skein of Rios in the beautiful shade "Azul Profundo" because I am knitting a Dave hat for my "Dave" for Christmas. It's my first time using this yarn and I am excited to move into our new home and finally get a chance to pick up my needles again. The Dave will be my first project in my new home. The yarn was the last yarn delivery to our old home 😊
Mary your post made my day for so many reasons! I listened to sooOo many podcasts when we were packing and moving in 2021 and it saved my sanity! Love that I’m keeping you company during this transition. Can’t wait to hear how your Dave turns out. Malabrigo is my ‘comfort yarn’ and hats are my ‘comfort project’. Thanks for being here all the best with the new pastures!
@theknittystew thank you so much! I have gotten so much inspiration from your videos. You have seriously contributed to my Ravelry favourites! I also love learning about your beautiful country. I also love how you pay homage with such reverence to the Indigenous people. One of my husband's big interests is learning about the native people of the America's, something he has ignited in me, too. Again, thank you for being such a calming and comforting companion to me throughout this huge transition. Moving house is physically hard, but I'm finding it quite emotional, too, as happy memories are stirred up in the process. Having podcasts to keep me entertained has been such a help 😊
Loved all your projects. Getting warmer a free espace tricot pattern is also a cozy neck warmer you may enjoy. Regina is also home to the 2022 CFL Grey Cup.🏈🏈
Thanks Esther! Yass the 109th Grey Cup!
Loving all the knits, especially the yellows, my fave lately. Wow, I really enjoy learning about all the things you share in your content, so inspiring. Great clips of the quilts your Sister made, such a talented crafty family, must be so fun to get together. I have been working on Safe at Home blanket by Margaret Holzmann, this will be maybe a full winter project, just taking my time. I just purchased Tucson by Ashleigh Wempe, plan on knitting that sometime soon. It was just released as a single pattern on Ravelry, it is also in the book: Handmade: Slow Fashion Inspired by Arizona's Five Cs where there are some other lovely patterns as well. Thank you Leanne for another beautiful podcast. Take care and safe travels. 🤗
Thank you so much Sue! I appreciate you being here 🤗! Added Tucson to the FAVES. It’s lovely 🥰
❤❤❤
💗💗
Wow!! Has it really been 7 months!!! I’ve enjoyed your podcasts and have learned some very interesting history about our beautiful country 🇨🇦. Looking forward to seeing where we visit next time!!!
Thanks for always being here Penny! 🤗
Hello from Vancouver BC Leanne!
I look forward so much to your podcasts , you're amazing just for being able to get up before 3am to go to work hahahaha. I always complain if a flight leaves in the morning and do anything to travel late in the day!
Love your knitting, the Dickkie is so cute and the yellow is so you. I made the Zweig a while ago when I didn't know how to do short rows and messed it all up so, I'll have to undo the whole thing and now with more experience do it again because it's a beautiful sweater.
Thanks for showing us Regina, very lovely except for the weather, you us BC people don't mind the rain but snow it's a whole new ball game. Big hug, safe flights. See you soon. Lupita 🇨🇦
Thank you Lupita !! I’m starting to think we should be doing a “Zweig-along”!
Thanks ,,Leanne,,,,,I always learn so much from UR podcasts !!!
Love UR dicķey,,,,,,love that color,,,
and UR cowl! IS AMAZING,,,,THANK YOU,,,
LOVED the tour,,,,,
Elaine 🏡🏡
Knitting socks,,,,hats for Xmas gifts,,,,,
Thank you for always saying such nice things Elaine! Happy gift knitting your family is lucky!
Don't be afraid to steek, go to Schoolhouse Press, I think Meg Swansen has a blog tutorial on it. She's terrific. Love the cowl you designed! I love to quilt too, your whole family is talented.
Thank you Teri… I’m determined I am going to do it! It’s not scary. I ordered some good scissors today, which I think is a good thing to have for steeking. Baby steps
Another great episode. I am enjoying your tour of Regina. I have my daughter's "Holly" in my hands which I hope to have finished in time for Christmas. It's my first lopi sweater and first bottom up! I say "hope" because I have a couple of On the C Train toques (thanks for recommending) to knit and now I think I'm going to cast on the neckwarmer you are wearing. It is gorgeous!! Thank you for sharing your time with us. ❤
Thank you Rita for cruising around Regina with me. Happy gift knitting! Love that you’ve caught the On The C-Train bug.. so addictive!
Thank you for sharing about A Heart for Africa. I am definitely going to check them out. I thought your statement about meaningful giving was appropriate for this time of year with Thanksgiving and Christmas. Your projects are lovely. Kim
That’s wonderful Kim! That makes me so happy! Bless you.
Lovely episode once again. I would have enjoyed your walk through the park and the visit to the yarn shop in Regina. All the shops in my area are tiny and crammed with goodies, but no place to sit for a friendly chat with fellow knitters. The piece you have finished for the West KAL is too beautiful to frog. I would definitely use a pop color or two by picking up stitches along the sides and knitting some crescent wings to finish out a shawl. The lime green skein you have would be a zinger, in my opinion.. I am ready for sleeve separation on the Zweig sweater, done all in beige, but it is "resting" while I'm working on other projects. Too many WIPS, as usual. Looking forward to next episode.
Great suggestions Linda!
Thank you Leanne for sharing your journey to Africa. You are truly a very special knitter! Coaching skating for 32 years had taken me too all these cities, and now seeing them from a different view (other than inside arenas) is very enjoyable! I can’t wait to see your Zweig in those amazing colours❤
Hi Maryann! Thanks for your lovely message. Arenas probably all start to look (and smell) the same after 32 years! Hopefully you can travel around out and really see these cities again one of these days!
Thanks so much for this episode! It was the first one I've seen of yours, and it was so interesting! It caught my eye because you were in Regina - which is just under 2 hours from where I live! I JUST found out a few days ago that Regina has a new yarn shop, and was thrilled to see a quick sneak peak into her shop - its so bright & cute! I will be at the Edmonton Fibre Frolic as well - I'd love to meet you, so if you happen to stumble into the Midknit Cravings booth, please say hi! ♥
Aw this is so nice … look forward to meeting you at the FF!
It's always a joy when I see a new episode. Thank you !
I am knitting my third dickie =personnal patterns= and indeed it's fun to knit and wear. I was running out of yarn (Julie Asselin Leizu worsted) so I changed the yarn for the folded cowl and knitted it with Drops Air. Very pleased with the result, it's like whipped cream on top of a good coffee....
Thank you Johane! Dickies for EVERYONE YAY! I need Drops Air in my life .
Your cowl design is beautiful! Safe travels
Thank you Kelly 💗!
Thank you for another lovely episode! I knitted Zweig last year and I absolutely love both knitting it and wearing it. Excited to see your version😃 I am knitting on a Single Malt sweater for my husband for christmas. But there will also be some sock knitting for gifts🎁 Wish you a wonderful November☕️🧶
Thank YOU so much 😊! I’m having a blast knitting on the Zweig. Your family is so lucky to have you making all the knitty goodness 😊 Single Malt is such a stunner.
What great luck that UA-cam “noticed” me watching knitting channels and brought me to yours! And the first podcast I watch is of my hometown Regina!! I enjoyed your walk about video so much; we moved to Chicago 24 yrs ago and oh how our hometown has changed. I am so looking forward to more podcasts! I cracked up when you said “give her”….I haven’t heard that phrase since we moved😂 Wishing you safe travels and good coffee!
Haha! Yay for the algorithm! Love that you noticed the “give er” definitely a term for us prairie folks eh? Chicago winters are probably pretty harsh.. wishing you warm knits and good coffee too 😃 🤗
I have looked for a similar pattern . This is a perfect gift knit.
👌🏼
Love your podcast style! I feel like I'm traveling through Canada 🇨🇦 And what a lovely description on why you do land recognition 👏. Beautiful!
While I watch, I'm knitting my 3rd Bandana cowl ( plan to knit 4 for gifts😁)
Thank you again for sharing your world with fellow knitters ❤️
Thanks for travelling with me Rosemary! Happy Bandana knitting! 🤗
Hi from South Carolina (Charleston area)! Absolutely love your podcast! (In the process of watching previous episodes as I knit.) Thank you for taking us on a tour of your beautiful country! I've always wanted to take a cross country trip through Canada; your footage is making me very happy in the meantime. :) Love seeing your WIPs and FOs. You're a beautiful knitter! Very much looking forward to your future podcasts!
Thank you Wendy! I’m so happy to have you travelling with me 🤗
I remember the good ole days of Malabrigo here in Canada …
I used to be able to but it for about $13CAD!
Hi Leanne 👋 Missed you in Calgary but I'm glad you had fun at your sister's B/D party! 🥳 Luv your FO's. Isn't it funny, the urge to knit faster when you think you'll lose at 🧶🐔 🤣
Yarn chicken is my nemesis! 😆
What a treat Leanne! I just smiling this whole episode. Thanks for visiting my home town of Regina! It was so fun seeing you capture it beautifully, and your lovely projects. 💕😊
Anna YQR is such a lovely home town! am falling in love with all the cities and YQR is up there 💕
Looking forward to seeing that Zweig! 😊
🎉 Me too 😆
I’m knitting yet another Perec vest in Rowan Felted Tweed and socks for my sister for Christmas.
Looking that pattern up. I’ve used the Rowan felted tweed and I like it alot!
Hey Leanne, so excited you’re coming to the Fibre Frolic. The Yarn Rebels and Yarn Divas will be hosting the Gathering Threads Social Lounge at the show, please stop by and say hello, I will be there hosting on both Sat. and Sun. and I would love to meet you. We’ll be having prize giveaways, games and having fun sharing what everyone is working on. Plus seeing all the amazing yarn 🥰
It’s going to be a blast! Will definitely stop into your party 🎉
Loved all your shares! And yes... I wish we could leave the clocks alone here, too... I'm working on a Charm of the Woodlands hat for my daughter, and am getting close to finishing the mkal (phew!). That spark you felt when you saw the sweater to use your mkal yarn in is really magical! I love hearing about when people listen to that feeling within 💕💫
Hi Corinne 👋🏼 OMGOSH… All of those Charm of the Woodland Hats are amazing! Instantly into my Favourites ♥️
That Arcane Burning beech yarn looks like it's on fire! So goregous, it's going to look fab as the lace panel in your Zweig.
Ooohhh Melissa!! 🔥 I can’t wait for you to see it in the Kelowna episode!
@@theknittystew I'm making my way through your videos and I've just seen it's progress in the Abbotsford episode. can't wait to see the final version 💕
I loooove your podcasts.
Thank you Pamela that means a lot coming from another podcaster !!
So good to see you again. I have made Zweig (Ravelry…knitnut246) and loved making it and wearing it. Right now I am working on the Sophie scarf #2 so cute and fun. Connie Windsor Ontario.❤️🇨🇦❤️safe travels.
Thanks Connie! Will check out your Zweig!
Thanks for this lovely trip to Regina. You are a great host.
Why don’t you create your own shawl from that west shawl? Even if you simply add 2 long garderstitch wings, it will look great. That center part is so beautiful and was so much work!
Take care. Love from Switzerland….
Thank you for such a socially conscious episode. We can always spend rich moments in knitting and the overflow of the craft and be better people. Travel safely!
Thank you Sheri 🤗!!
