Such an entertaining time with you both! The story with the fish then the neighbour getting shut in the shed. Life is never dull with you two. Thank you for brightening my day.
Another engaging “half hour” with you two. I can’t decide which of the stories was funnier - Arne buying enough fish for six months or the neighbour stuck in the trash palace!!! It is so good to have a laugh these days. The houndstooth pattern on the vintage cushion project is amazing. I would never have thought of that!!! ❤️ from 🇨🇦
😀❤️
I love it when I find myself nodding, or smiling or even laughing out loud, as I watch. Sometimes I even answer back! Good thing I'm alone when I watch, or they'd be taking me away! LOL
Jody, I actually waved goodbye back at them last week😂😂!
@@nancybarricklo2079 I did that too! 🤣🤣🤣
@@nancybarricklo2079 This may sound like a stupid question, but how do you access the emojis for this site. I have no option for them! Everyone else seems to be able to use them!
@@jodyturner1187 Hi Jody! I have a MacBook and if I simultaneously press control/command/space bar, my emojis pop up like they would on my phone. If you have a non-Mac computer, try a Google search for how to access your emojis via the keyboard!😊
@@jodyturner1187 I just discovered this: click on the comment section. When your cursor is in the comment space, right click on your mouse and the option for emoji's is on the top of the list. Voila! Good luck! 😉
Your finishing of the old embroidery is sooooo beautiful, Arne!
You are so right Carola! . . . I was amazed when Arne unfolded the fabric and showed us what he had done! Arne . . . AMAZING! Using the houndstooth pattern is something I never would have thought to do; very, very clever and eye-catching!
You guys are so funny
OMG I'm laughing so hard at the garbage story because this also happened to me! I live in a condo (in So. Burlington, Vermont) and one day I was putting the garbage and recycling in the shed provided when a big gust of wind came and the door slammed shut and there was no way to open it from the inside. Luckily there are windows with screens on the shed so I started screaming bloody murder and very quickly a nice man came by and let me out. So embarrassing -- but funny!
My dad was an amazing embroiderer, his work was the same on both back and front!
Thank you for creating your podcasts. You've made a tough time so much better. I look forward to your new episodes every week.
Thank you for watching every week Heather!

You make beautiful and interesting crafts. From South Africa I Just love watching your Chanel, always great ideas. Thank you for your podcast. Blessings to you both
Thanks for all the laughs! “Couldn’t you hear me screaming?!” I’ll be giggling about this for days! 😂
In this crazy world we are all in it’s really nice to see you two have so much fun in everything you do. The ability to put smiles on our faces doesn’t come easy for everyone but you both have a genuine talent. Thank you for sharing that with all of us. We know by the end of your podcasts we will have had some laughs and just a most enjoyable time.❤️. (The garbage palace tale was hilarious!!)
"Let's just do it; we only live once"--loved the fish truck story!!
Thank you for being a bright spot in my week. Enjoy sitting and knitting with you for a bit.
I LOVE what Arne is doing with the embroidery! It looks great. I get such enjoyment hearing about your simple and lovely Norwegian life. Love hearing about Freja and Helmer (Moose-moose!) and I squealed when I saw your knitted poodles! I may have to knit a replica of my grandpup Shelby. Thanks for sharing with us. Can't wait for the daily Spring podcast! Stay well.
I just ❤ love you two! Arne your "old blind lady" UFO is turning out gorgeous, cant wait to see it finished. Looking forward to next week! See you then 👋
Love spending the “Norwegian half hour ” with you both and looking forward to seeing you every day for the Spring Podcast!
Love the houndstooth background, makes the cushion much more interesting. Thank you for making our lives so much brighter, we are still locked down here in Wales but the end is nigh😁 looking forward to next week❤️
Love, love, love the houndstooth! I've been working off and on the past ten years (!) on my mother's stash. It can be very rewarding!
Can’t wait for the Easter knit along , I loved the Christmas one, the stories you both tell make it so “magical” . Love to you both xx
Just two words for you both: crab cakes. Arne’s laughter makes me laugh! The trash chateau is classic...I too am a collector of ‘found’ UFOs and a few years ago found yarn for a needlepoint rug in a beautiful burgundy. For the price of eight skeins I had enough yarn for three sweaters. Cabled! Thank you for your hard work in keeping us engaged and hopeful. It’s been lovely spending time with you.
😍
You two are the Norwegian equivalent of Seinfeld! When you make stories about everyday occurrences so funny. Love your sit and knits!
Thank you!
The greenery frames the two of you perfectly! I 💕 your new format!
Thank you!
Best part of Wednesday is your pod cast ,totally loved today’s stories!🥰
Arne is having a conversation with the maker artist to artist. Fascinating how we respond to art in others and in ourselves. Thanks guys! Enjoyed another week.
Thanks so much for all the laughter and smiles. Another great conversation!!!!!
Hi Arne and Carlos! You guys are endlessly entertaining. I can hardly wait to watch after you post. This one was especially funny and sweet. You will make me into a knitter yet - the poodle is ADORABLE and I love the Easter items you are making. Instead of knitting I will use your designs in my quilting. Arne, Nancy Drew was a huge favorite of mine growing up. I often think about those books and now you have me thinking about reading one again. So cool that you are going through the whole series. Love to you both. I'm going to rewatch this one for sure. Thanks for the dose of happiness.
Thank you for another entertaining "half hour" !! Your life stories are so awesome. I settle down with my tea and hook or needles and listen to you. It's as if I am sitting across the table from you. I love the fish story - maybe it's a wide-mouth bass ? Laughed so hard I cried at the garbage palace story. So glad your neighbour has a good sense of humour! Looking forward to next week! Take care and stay well. :)
OMG the garbage palace story!!! My husband thinks I am nuts because of the laughter coming out of my craft room. Thank you, we all need a good laugh to keep us healthy.
I love the black and white houndstooth embroidery, the garbage palace story, the Norwegian half hour, the dogs, the ‘bloody zoom meetings’, the fish van story. Thanks for so much fun. I’m glad you were able to have Erik and Anna visit you. 👋
Another super podcast! The stories were so funny this week, I could hardly knit Colorwork while listening. Arnie obviously loves crab! Love the knitted poodles and your real poodles. I have a silver standard (large size) poodle and he was black as a little puppy. The Blue ones are also. Both get lighter as they mature. Silver looks gray. Thanks again, and really looking forward to the spring podcasts.
I love love all your stories, you are Never boring. I sit and cross stitch and listen always with a smile on my face.
I have not laughed so hard for a very long time so thank you for the story about the neighbor who was locked into the garbage house. Your stitching Arne is so beautiful. Can not wait to see you everyday again and here your stories.
We got a new dog. Because our old one died two weeks ago. And when your Knit for a bit is on its time for walking with her. She reminds us of Freja. She is very energetic and she is called Jilly. So we have to watch you later. I adore your poodles. Especially the pink one. I am sure the other two will be as cute when they are finished. What a story about your neighbour lady! And the fish Arne bought. Laughing. I know a person who would do similar things like Arne did, I imagine he would exactly the same in that situation. Thanks for making the start of my day so bright with your wonderful stories. Looking forward to watch the eggs knitting stories.
Loved the podcast today guys - laughed at the story of your neighbour locked in the garbage palace xxxxx.Love your podcasts sit and knit for a bit . Looking forward to Easter 🐣 😀 😊
As always, I love,love,love your videos and i laughed so hard... I am so sorry your friend was stuck in the garbage chateaux...but it reminded me of one of the I love Lucy series when Lucy and Ethel got stuck in the walk in cooler. Looking forward to all the new things coming. Thank you for sharing and helping so many get through these times 🥰🙏🏼💫❣️ again ,so sorry your friend got stuck .🥰
watching and knitting ..........I ran dog team for 7 days straight and today was very cold here.......decided to take a day and be home and enjoy........binge watching your shows......thank you
We hope you are having a good time!
....”the bloody zoom meetings....” ! I’m sure that’s a sentiment that thousands share!
The garbage palace story was hysterical! Thanks for the laugh! Loved it! 🤣🤣🤣
Listening to you two gives me so much joy. I was rolling around with laughter at the garbage (we would say rubbish here in England!) palace incident and the buying of so much fish. :)
Your embroidery is looking fabulous Arne. When you said you were going to do black and white on it I though “What?” but it looks amazing. I love charity shops too so keep bringing back those gems. Sadly all our non-essential shops are all closed currently.
Thank you!
It's so true that limitations spur creativity! You think you need everything, but it's really creating something from nothing that is so creative.
I am so glad that the 2 of you can pop in for a chat and coffee. Had a good laugh today about Arne’s fish buying and the neighbours garbage shed escapade. Thank you for brightening up the day.😂😂
sitting in a room by myself and laughing helplessly with you two!!! Best time I've had in days! Thank you!
These sit and knit videos are hilarious. I can’t even knit but I have decided that I must learn so I can take part. The story about the neighbour brought tears to my eyes. I can’t decide if it’s better for strangers to use your bins for rubbish or the back of your palace for a toilet! Have you thought about using a hook for the palace door so it can’t blow shut? That’s what we use on our allotment shed.
Ooh, thank you for the suggestion!
I have a bunch of lovely ufos of my mom's.
She was very busy starting new projects but never finishing..I can never do the work she did and wish I could find someone to complete them.. arne is a sweetheart to finish and appreciate someone's projects.
Love you guys.❤️
I loved seeing the houndstooth on the vintage embroidery! It very beautiful. So very enjoyable to see and hear you! That was an eventful week, yummy fish, and your poor neighbour’s fiasco in the trash palace! I love how you both find the humour in your days. The felted balls look fabulous! I’m really looking forward to the daily podcast with the egg knit along! Cheers!🇨🇦
I love hanging out w you virtually & listening to your conversations! You definitely have soothing storytelling super powers! 💞plus your "30 minutes" are an hour which is fabulous!!! great masks too, will be ordering some 😷the houndstooth on the needlework UFO is stunning! the poodles are super cute 😍 OMG your poor neighbour getting stuck in the garbage palace! I'm glad she got out ok, too funny 🤣 I think the big-mouthed angler fish is a monkfish
So lovely to feel so connected to you all. Personally, in the last year, instead of excuses, I've learned to own the statement, "zoom wears me out, as part of self-care I'm declining zooms." It's liberating, honest and authentic. Take good care of yourselves!!!
Simple beginnings are the best. Lovely pink flowers. It's nice to hear someone else's stories. 😊
You two are the best. Always look forward to your podcasts (even if I catch them a bit late!) Keep us learning new things...your knitting creations as well as your life and backgrounds. 💜💜
Thank you!
As always what a wonderful time it is spending with you. Your plants look so happy in this room. I enjoy hearing all your great stories and the ideas you share. Stay well. 😊
The stories today were great. I think there may be a "Fishgate" or "Crabgate" in about 6 months. Just don't start adding it to the porridge!
I love your Sit and Knit Vlog every week. I don't always watch on Wednesday but save it for an hour of uninterrupted knitting on the weekend.. I laughed so hard at the story of the neighbor in the Garbage Palace, poor thing. If she had her phone with her she could have called you to get her out! I look forward to your Spring videos even though I won't be doing your eggs. I so enjoy your stories about Norway, it's history and how you continue to carry on the traditions. We live in Washington State where there is a large Nordic population. I know that you have done events at the National Nordic Center in Seattle and hope to see you there at some point. Thank you again for the joy you bring to the knitting communities around the world.
That garbage story, the giggles, oh my goodness. I lost my place in my knitting listening to that 😅 Looking forward to the Knitted Eggs KAL. I have made a wooden egg holder, to hold the egg once they are knit. What a lovely project to do as spring rolls in. Thank-you!!
Oh my, such an entertaining episode, once again you both made me laugh out loud. I could listen to your stories for hours. Stay safe and keep sharing your joy 🧶🧵🌼
what a beautiful shaded embroidered pattern around the flowers... i sat here "AAAAWWWWW" awesome!!!!!!
Thank you for helping us de-stress today! I just wish we could go have lunch with you now!
All of the plants gave a wonderful spring feeling to this episode. I think the houndstooth background looks great on that adopted ufo. All of the projects you showed - mega Magnus, the poodles and the felted ornaments - are so adorable! Thanks for an enjoyable episode!
You make our world a better place. Had a really good laugh thank you sooooo much!
I really enjoy the “sets” you arrange/stage for your pod casts.... it has inspired me to pay attention to my setting for my zoom retreats and meetings I attend. It’s fun. Excuse to flea market - LOVE the rocking horse. 🤓
I love the houndstooth pattern. I remember the first sewing pattern I made was for a dress for my little sister. It was black and white houndstooth, and we both loved the way it turned out.
I totally sympathize with the trash problem. Around here, there are some people who just throw their trash out of the car windows as they ride by, and it ends up at the edge of our yard. Our garbage men wouldn't pick it up either, so many times I - or my husband - will have to walk out and pick it up and discard or recycle. Argghhhh! Our young grandchildren get upset and want us to do SOMETHING, but what is there to do . . . just clean it up. That's better than screaming in the garage palace, ha ha!
And, the fish story had me howling!
I love Norwegian Time. Sooo much gets squeezed into "thirty" minutes. We should all live on Norwegian Time. And the houndstooth against the flowers on the cushion cover -- magnificent. I would never, never have thought it would work, but it is breathtaking. Which is why you are the designers and I'm the admirer. LOL
It is very flexible!
The houndstooth background on the flowers is absolutely fabulous. The other day, when you shared the idea, I thought your idea was ...quite odd. I was wrong . Now I know why you two are the designers . Smile. Thanks for all the creative inspiration always!
So much fun! And you always make me giggle so infectious Arne laughing! Xx 😘
Thanks to both of you for an enjoyable afternoon. I will be smiling for the rest of the day. :-)
You guys are killing me. I can't stop laughing about your poor neighbor in the garbage palace. 😅😅😅
I’m with you!! 🤣
Me too
Oh my!! Laughing so hard at your stories! Your “trash palace” construction sounds like my husband’s creation of our chicken coop, which got more and more elaborate as it went along. We christened it “the Chick Mahal” when he finished, and our chickens had to learn how to turn on a landing between two ramps...very fancy! Thank you for keeping us entertained throughout these troubling times!
You made my day so much brighter, many laughs and fun. Thank you!
The garbage story was hilarious! The vase of peony flowers are beautiful. I love the checkered background for the flowers. I am looking forward to your stories and eggs. You are both a delight. Thank you.
We are glad you liked it
What a delightful video. I love that Arne is finishing the tapestries and seems so emotionally connected to them. Also it has reminded me that I have yarn and fabric and I need some cushion covers! My granddaughter is called Freya! Thankyou both very much - looking forward to 17th March (St Patrick’s Day). Xx
See you soon!
I have been rewatching your quarantine podcast from a year ago and saw you show the mouse. I am very interested in seeing it completed. Don't make us wait so long to see it finally done. It is so cute.
😀
Excellent stories and you are great story tellers! Also can see how hard you work for us - thank you. Looking forward to watching knit along as still a left handed non-knitter so will watch and crochet along very, very slowly.
Lovely flowers! Thanks once again for a great visit.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🥰🥰🥰 you really are wonderful!!!! And fun and great!!! Thank you for keep us laughing so much!!! Love you both!!!!
Omg the “garbage house” story is a classic! 🤣🤣🤣 I love how hilarious it is to think of this situation.
oh you two are funny, nice break to my day. Thank you for the smiles!
Thanks for the laughs and your company! Loved the "Norweigan 1/2 hr " that allowed me to finish knitting a pair of socks with the Arne & Carlos Mountains & Fjords yarn
😀
The houndstooth makes it stunning Arne, a lovely mash-up. I really need more time to watch the two of you. I going to watch this tomorrow again. Thanks for this first part ;>p
When I was a little girl, I remember my mother doing needlepoint (what you are calling embroidery). She would purchase "commenced needlepoint". That means someone has already done the picture in the middle, such as the flowers on the project you just showed us, and you would purchase yarn to do the background. It was easy to needlepoint: no pattern or color changes, just a simple stitch in one color. Very calming.
It is a relaxing activity!
Another wonderful sit and knit with the two of you. I so enjoy my time with ya’all. Have a great Easter break.
Arne I love what you are stitching!! What a lucky find. I have a tapestry hanging with the metal hangers on my wall. My parents are Norwegian and my mother stitched it for me years ago. I treasure it.
Thanks Arne and Carlos, very entertaining.
Love hearing ur stories. Ur neighbor stuck in the little house, always prop the door open. Arnie laughing, made me laugh just watching him. Keep up with stories, enjoyable. Ty
In America I think the fish you described is called a big mouth bass.
This video was too funny. I love the "garbage palace" story. I had to stop what I was doing to wipe the tears from laughing. Arne the hound tooth background is just gorgeous! I have finished two of those flower needlepoint from my box full of UFO's I bought and have two more to to. I might have to do that pattern on the next two. You inspire me. I am cross stitching a Christmas table cloth out of that box of stuff, so instead of knitting Easter balls I will listen an finish that.
Carlos you as Freja is a good analogy. Love you both for doing these videos. The balls at the end are beautiful.
Oh, Arne, the houndstooth with the rescued embroidery is gorgeous! I have to admit , when you first desrubed it, I couldn't "see" it. Guess that's why you and Carlos are the artistic designers that you are!
Described*
Thank you for an hour well-spent!!!!!
OMG, I couldn’t stop laughing about the neighbour in the garbage palace...😂😆🤣
And I love the mouse, it’s amazing in that big size.
Looking forward to the daily Spring podcasts, I have the eggs patterns and my yarn ready.
Another great episode. The pink flowers and the pink poodle made such a pretty display. Thank you for sharing your time with us.
Thank you for joining!
You are both the greatest 😊🧶👏so much fun to visit with you each week🙋🏼♀️
Your stories are fabulous. I am having a hard time drinking my oolong tea because I'm laughing so much! The trash palace story is priceless. Maybe instead of a 3rd lock a latch that attaches to the building might work to keep the door open. Oh my, fish for months! You could write a cookbook. Six months of fish dinners. The houndstooth on the roses will be beautiful. I haven't seen poodles like those you knitted in many years. They are adorable.
i watched your decision making for the background of Arne's UFO petit point thrift find and was appalled. Today when I saw the ongoing project I was amazed. Thank you so much for opening my eyes. I love you two. From 🇨🇦
Last Sit and Knit you mentioned, Arne, that you might do hounds tooth on the needlepoint. I had trouble picturing it. I was amazed today when you revealed it....how very beautiful. The contrast between the two patterns is fantastic It was fun to sit and knit and listen to you both today. Have a wonderful rest of the week.
Arne and Nancy Drew. Of course. What a delight.
Always a pleasure spending time with you guys! Looking forward to knitting some new eggs for Easter! Woo Hoo!!
Went to the Merch page on your website, and saw that you have lots of new stuff! I must've missed the memo about that, but it's all sorted and will be on its way soon enough. Love the new design with Helmer in the family pic now. ❤️ and the mask fabric design is super fun! 😷
The 'Trash Palace' story was very good. Your poor neighbor 😂 Glad it all worked out okay in the end.
Thanks for sitting and knitting, or should I say 'spinning a yarn' (telling a story) with us. Love it!
Much love to you all and give the doggies some love for us. ❤️🐶🐶
Love you 2. Glad to see that Carlos is feeling better!
Arne, I am so in love with the UFO you are working on , the hounds tooth design sets off the flowers in such a posh way. I laughed until I cried over the neighbor lady getting locked in the garbage palace.
Hello guys! The 'Garden Mouse' is adorable! Well, so are the poodles! Oh my, just charming! When you talk about washing them, is that before you stuff them? What fun to have a Freya size knitted poodle. Eeek, dreamy! How about a huge Helmer wool poodle? Nice to watch you this week. Happy to hear all of you are well.🤗
Another wonderful visit with you guys. It tickles me so much when you get to laughing about something. I'm really looking forward to the daily episodes. Hugs from Virginia.
Your stories are always SO interesting and fun!! I LOVE all of your videos so much. Thanks for being so wonderful :)
What a fun episode , I love what you have done with the floral UFO. You have a gifted eye for art. I'm looking forward to the egg knit along.
You guys made me laugh so much in this episode. The trash palace, the seafood buying spree. Thanks!
I love your stories. The garbage palace and the fish buy stories were so funny. I look forward to visiting with you each week, as I sit and knit for a bit.
Looking forward to March podcasts. Love when you talk about Norway and just chat. Thank you for making my day. Very relaxing.
You are both ver special. Thank you for keeping me company during these crazy times! ❤️🇨🇦
You are welcome!
