Great episode again. I certainly applaud you taking Leanne Time. Life is too short not to take 5 and just breathe. This community is very forgiving so enjoy yourself. We will be here when you’re ready. Much love Diane ❤❤
The same as @kevindawg5717 and much love from me too xxx
Thank you soo much for this support and understanding 😊
Thank you so much Diane (((hug)))
Echo kevindawg’s comment of taking time, we will welcome you back when YOU are ready!
Echoing @kevindawg5717. Take time for yourself and will catch up in the future. Thanks for all the lovely company you’ve shared with us. Wishing you friendly skies❤
Ooh I love the colours you've used in the yoke of your Sunset Highway. The blue and mint look great with the black.
Thanks MEL! I finished it now ((love it)) and will be showing it off on my next episode.
@@theknittystew hooray! Can’t wait to see it
Love your little history lessons of the cities you visit. Your color work is so fun. Love your color choices.
Thank you Janet! I end up learning so much about Canada while researching these fun facts.
I loved this episode 💚💛💜❤️🩵🧡🩷 All that colour!!! What joy!
Thanks Loretta!
Everyone needs a break. I’ll be watching for your return. I so enjoy your knitting talents. ❤️🧶
I will miss you during your break, but certainly applaud your self care! Be well, have fun, relax and replenish. I love your bright, happy color choices.
Patty Lyon's book "Knitting bag of tricks" shows how to avoid the holes created doing German short rows. Your sweater is gorgeous. Love that green
I agree there is a tip for resolving the purl short row in the book. It's an excellent resource
Hi your channel popped in my feed, I live in Windsor thank you for highlighting the city and our lovely local yarn shop! Your knitting is beautiful
Hi Josie! Thanks so much!
Wonderful episode! You will love Melody Hoffman's patterns. I have knit many & I have even knit some multiple times. They are just wonderful!😊
I enjoy your podcasts so much, so pleasant and relaxing. But you should definitely take time for you, and we’ll miss you. Enjoy your time and know we’re sending good thoughts.
Thank you Rosemary!
Happy Canada Day ❤❤
Love the hats thanks
Thank you 😁
I really enjoyed your podcast as usual. Great projects. Have a wonderful holiday.
Thank you so much! ☺️
Thank you for taking the time to talk to us Leanne and for sharing your lovely knits. Happy Canada day for tomorrow 🇨🇦 and we hope to see you on the UA-cam worlds soon. Enjoy your summer and recharge. I have always thought of doing a podcast too, but all the editing and background work scares me and puts me off indeed. So, thank you for doing it and sharing. Happy flying, knitting and summertime!
Thank you so much for this kind message. Yes I just need a bit of a breather, although I have to say that I have really cut down and do minimal editing now, but that definitely is the lions share of the time consumption
I just love watching you and so you’re gonna take a break. I’m gonna miss you. You inspire me so much. I haven’t done color work yet and I just started making socks. I am a new knitter. I’ve only made one tank top of scarves last year. My goal was to need garment and I did this year is Chin socks and I am doing it And right now I’m doing a Test Crochet of crocheted since I was nine I’m 69 so I’ve done that forever but I’ve always wanted to net and I’ve made a goal of doing so so I love watching you. My ex-husband was a pilot. We traveled all over he has since passed away, I had three children by him and they’re wonderful. I still I raised them in Bend Oregon. They are all still there. I had to come back to Portland for work so I’ve worked in the hospital forever and so that’s what I do and they didn’t wanna come back here in 2008 when everything went kaput anyway you have a great rest of the summer.
Have a great summer time Leanne !
Thank you! You too!
Your Sunset highway is gorgeous!!!!! I also don't like to catch my floats, they just show through too much. Have fun enjoying Summer!!! Yes, totally got the Journey song stuck in my head, haha! Hugs, Kimberly
Thanks, Kimberly. And remember “don’t stop believing” 😉
@@theknittystew 😆
Happy summer, Leanne! I also have knit a Shetland Wool Week hat and it was ginormous. I modified it into a cowl, but yes, like you, now know I have to reduce stitches to get a size that meets my teeny head. I'm here for all of your colour!!! Bring it on!!
Thank you so much! And Congratulations on your Podiversary! 🎊
I might have to copy your first colorwork sweater because I love those colors together! Great podcast!
Yay! Thanks Nicole! Colourwork twins!
I enjoyed this video. You have a beautiful creativity. Enjoy your break !
Thank you so much
Have a great summer! ❤
Thank you! You too Ann!
I just finished the Garden Cardigan - what a great pattern. Hope you enjoy knitting yours as much as I did!! Have a wonderful summer.
Hi Maureen! What did you make yours with?
Enjoy the summer. I appreciate you, your videos, and your knitting. I get courage to try new things from your experiences.
That is very nice to hear. Thank you so much. Have a wonderful summer and happy knitting!!
Thanks for this great episode and all the precedent ones, which brought me so much joy! Best regards from Germany😊. This brings me to the short rows: pull your yarn really tight, so that the two legs of the turning stitch appear on top of the needle, and it‘ll turn upside down. So you will have enough tension to avoid the little gap in between. See you some day in autumn, take your time!❤
Thank you!! ☺️
Will miss your podcasts and look forward to any that you can do. It is important to take care of yourself. Enjoy your spinning time. I am trying to improve mine.
Thank you so much!
Just found your channel. I first saw your NB episode and now your Windsor episode. I lived most of my adult life in Windsor and worked in Detroit many of those years. I am now living in NB outside of Saint John and retired. Thoroughly enjoy your knitting info. I have been mostly knitting socks but completed the Melt shawl this summer. Hopefully will start a sweater soon.
Hi Angela, thanks for coming to visit my Channel! Happy fall knitting!
Lovely
Hi Leanne! Just finished playing catch up with all your latest videos and what an inspiration! I want to cast on soooo many new things now 🙈😂. LOVE both versions of your Shetland hat and your Sunset Highway is soooo good! I live in my cream-coloured Ranunculus so can absolutely recommend! It was lovely to see footage in your previus episode of you, Sophie and Nancy together in NB and I can't wait to see your version of the Lunenburg knit up! Enjoy your "Leanne-time" and looking forward to your return to UA-cam, when you're ready ❤
Thanks Nikki! We definitely have similar tastes you and I ☺️
Amazing that you mentioned Shall We Knit which used to be our yarn shop in Waterloo, Ontario. We miss this shop as we no longer have a local yarn shop.
Yes, I think I’m going to try and get out to Kingsville next time. I am in Windsor this month.
Leanne thanks for your latest podcast, I’m always delighted when a new episode pops up. I applaud you for realizing you need some Leanne time. I was just down the road from Windsor this weekend, celebrating a cousin’s graduation. I haven’t been to Windsor in a very long time, yarn shop looks appealing - 🩷 their mascot. Also have heard great things about the yarn shop in Kingsville, from Kelly and Noelle of Knitting Pieces podcast, who are located in S/W Ontario.
Happy 🇨🇦 Day and wishing you a lovely summer.
The other Wendy 🧶
Hello the other Wendy! :) yes I think I’m going to try and make my way out to Kingsville next time. I’m in Windsor.
Missing you already! But so glad you'll have some time off from podcasting this summer. That mint! Wow! Just stunning!
Thank you ☺️ i’ll see you in the fall. Have a wonderful peaceful summer. Happy Knitting!
Just found your podcast, love the city tour/info and local yarn shop visit! 🥰
Yay! Thank you for checking out my Channel! You are very welcome here :)
Hi Leanne , watching from Bavaria on Canada Day , nice to see 🇨🇦 again. Your hats and all are so fun, I'm inspired , thanks for all the info and have a great summer 😊
🍻 Cheers to you in Bavaria!
Love your new hair style!
Thank you 😊 Definitely time for a change!
Will miss you. Enjoy your break
🤍🩷💖
I'm so sad to hear that you are taking a knitty stew break. I am excited when you post episodes! But I hope you have a beautiful summer and that it's not too busy. I love all your knits! Ican't wait to see your cowgirl one completed. Have you ever knit a sweater by Ysolda Knits? I know you've made the Musselborough hat. She is so talented! I really appreciate the intelligence and thought in her designs.❤🧶
Oh yes, I have many of hers in my queue, but I have never made a garment by her!!
Wonderful, busy podcast! You certainly have a lot on your needles!! Seven WIPs would make me crazy, but go for it! You will have lots to show after your break. I will miss you, but understand the need for some down time. I just finished the Tresoro--a lovely, easy pattern! Safe travels, and Happy Canada Day!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for another great podcast. Lisa Chemery (Froggginette) has developed a great technique for resolving the last double stitch to avoid a hole. She has a tutorial on UA-cam.
I'll check it out!
À bientôt Leanne! Enjoy your summer🧶❤️👒
Merci!!!!
Hi Leeann. I just wanted to let you know I received my yarn prize and it’s gorgeous. Thank you again. I hope you enjoy your summer and break from podcasting. I love seeing your episodes but I know it’s a lot of work. I’ll look forward to when you come back. My knitting time has taken a backseat to moving into a new apartment but I’m slowly getting things organized and as much as I would love to cast on something new I really need to finish some WIPS. Take care and have a great summer.
Yay Sharon I’m so glad you got it! Sounds like you have a busy summer too. I’ll catch you in the fall. :)
Wow! Gotta love all your colourful colour work, Leanne. Great idea to use a colourwork chart in a top down sweater. I do that when I make my baby hoodies. I adjust for stitch count and knit the chart upside down. It works great. I will have to try it on a sweater for me. I think you will have the perfect hat when you knit your third Shetland hat.
I visited Windsor when I was 11, back in 1962, so 62 years ago. My brother was interning in Detroit and my mum and I flew out from Nelson, BC (I think we flew from Spokane) to visit- my first plane ride, with full dinners with china and silverware, lots of leg room and a smoking section (gag). We drove through that tunnel under the river to visit friends in Windsor-mind boggling!
Enjoy your break from podcasting and finish up all those WIPS. I will miss you, but we are all busy in summer and a good time for a break!
That is such a neat memory! thanks for your message and I will see you in the fall
Beautiful knit Leanne ! Love the new Caitlin Hunter sweater you’re making !
I hope your not stuck in Windsor with the airline strike , but I guess that would give you more knitting time and yarn store visits 😊
I did not get stuck there, but I had ALL my projects as you saw just in case! 😂
Have a great summer!!
Thank you! You too!
You have to pull the thread over the needle when and after you turn for the german short row. I found a good explanation here on YT. Lovely episode as always ❤️ God bless you 💕
Thanks for the tip!
Thank you for recommending the Skimmer Socks - I had never come across them before but they will be perfect! See you when you return - enjoy your break!
Let me know how they work for you!
Thank you! I live right across the border from Windsor.
Wonderful 👏🏼 😎
Due to your podcast I’ve been in Canada and searching for Yarn Shops. I’ve recently visited Stash Needle Art Lounge! In Calgary. An awesome experience! Thanks for all the things you do for us knitters ❤️❤️
Wonderful! Yay!
You mentioned on an earlier podcast that you liked a shawl someone was wearing on a flight. Winterlight shawl has broken rib, mesh lace, and garter. It’s a pretty one . Love your podcast and all the videos you do of Canada, take care hope you come back your knitting is inspiring.
Thanks for sharing!!
Your podcasts keep getting better & better Leanne! You did a great job & it's so awesome to travel with you on your trips. I commuted to Windsor from Chatham for several years & good to see you include it. Good for you deciding to take a break. Wondering which sweater you will go to more often - the Zweig or the Sunset Highway?
Leanne I am new to spinning too and purchased mine almost two years ago and also chose the kiwi 3. I love it!
You should take time off when you need it, as much as I love your podcast you have to put yourself first and we will be here waiting when you come back! I appreciate that you are telling us and explained why 💜
Thank you Pamela! I chose the Kiwi after watching Kaci of Youngfolk Knits and then doing some googling and I am so happy to hear you still love yours 2 years in!
Thank you so much for your message. I am really enjoying my break!
Hi Leanne, so sad to know you are not going to be here for a while.
I will miss you lots, but however life has to be lived,
will so look forward to catching up again when you return.
In the meantime keep safe and whishing all Gods blessings for you whatever you may be doing.
God bless you, Muriel!!
Fabulous as always Leanne 🥰 smiled the whole way through (as usual). Your floats 💪🏻💕
Spinning 😂 I’m not a spinner (yet?!#%) but I know once/if I start it will be a deep rabbit hole, enjoy!
Wishing you a fun and relaxed summer, thanks for sharing, Karen 😘
@@casuarinagirl8067 Thank you Karen! 😊
I just watched a really interesting video by Knicole Knits here on UA-cam where she modifies shawls into what she calls wrapovers. Basically she modifies the pattern into a long rectangle and seams it and ends up with a type of poncho effect.
Oh, I really like the Garden Cardigan….very pretty.
Oh wow that sounds incredible. I’ll have to check it out. :)
While most of me totally wants you to do what you know is best for you, I’m sure going to miss the podcast. Beautiful knitting! I refuse to count my WIPs. Some stare at me from across my room. I carry some around as if… Clearly you need more project bags (for the WIPs). Have a reasonably happy summer.
Thank you Patricia! I’ll be getting those WIPS off the needles. For some reason I can’t help but count them!!
The colors on the first Shetland wool week hat barely show up on my monitor! It looks two toned! The second is very pretty! all very nice. Have a nice break, and enjoy spinning.
Oh wow!
If you ever have the opportunity to go to Shetland, especially during Wool Week, DO IT!! I've been to Shetland twice and loved every minute of it. Also....I hope you'll be podcasting about Knit City Calgary.
It looks like SUCH a magical place!
Hi Leanne, I am currently knitting the magic spring shawl as recommended by you in a beautiful fingering superwash Marino and natural bamboo blend. The skein was dyed especially for a NC OBX knit shop’s 20th anniversary.
Thank you for your podcast and your charming tours and sharing your makes. Karen from Gaithersburg
That sounds like it’s going to be an amazing Magic Spring Shawl!! Thank you for your message Karen 🫶🏼
I know everyone needs a break , but I’ll really miss you. I like getting all about your knitting and at the same time we get to see and hear about different places. Specially Canada. I’ll be waiting for your return.
Wow, loving the cowgirl crop… and I’m amazed how far 20g of yarn goes! I can recommend Norman of NimbleNeedles who does lots of tutorials. He has one called “A Better Way to knit German short rows” from about 1 year ago. He has an earlier one too, so look out for the more recent one. Enjoy your break! 😊
Thanks for the tip about Norman!!
I love all the hats you're making. Your new hair length looks so good with them..that colourwork yoke is fantastic! I'm quite the Caitlin hunter fan too. Thanks for another great episode. I'm watching from Dubai airport during a layover to S Africa 😊.
👋🏼
Thank you, Leanne, for another lovely episode. Relax and enjoy 'you' time 😊
Thank you! 😊
Hi Leanne, thank you for this podcast, I love all your wips especially the cowgirl top❤ glad you mentionned the thimble, because mine has indeed the little spirals not as close to my finger, will check for one like yours. Have a great summer🌞
That really made all the difference for me. I hope you find one like that.
Such nice and many projects. You must be a speedy knitter. Would be nice to see you knit a little!
💖
Hi Leanne! Regarding German short rows, Patty Lyons has an amazing technique for resolving them when you go back to knitting in the round. It's in her book "Knitting Bag of Tricks" and also on her website. I think it's a blogpost from June 2018 titled Knitting German Short Rows in the Round. I use it all the time, and it makes that last double-stitch completely disappear with no holes.
Enjoy your summer, and I look forward to seeing you again in the fall. :-)
Patty of course she has a solution!! Thank you!
Hi Leanne - congrats on the Kiwi 3 purchase! I have had mine for 2+ years and as you know...Tour de Fleece 2024!! is hopefully the motivation to learn - lol. Your shetland hats are wonderful and your colour work is Devine...so want a southwest version. Sunset highway is stunning and while fingering weight sweaters take FOR EVERRR....will be worth it - love the colours you chose. Cast On-itis gets the better of even the most devout monogamous knitters so enjoy...you'll be back to 3 wips in no time. Hope you dont mind....going to send you a pic of my spinning...maybe you can point me to a video to help me understand what I need to do differently(lol). Enjoy your summer off and look forward to seeing you whenever you podcast again. Happy, peaceful, crafting - Linda.
Hi Linda 👋🏼 thanks for this message! Look forward to seeing your spinning but I’m pretty clueless I think every bobbin of fibre is pretty 🤩 lol
Its been so lovely to knit with you Leanne! How good is the Skimmer Socks pattern? I finished my first pair recently after watching Tash's podcast too and loved making them. They wear really well too. I hope your daughter loves them! Beautiful projects and all the yes to more ranunculi, I look forward to seeing your cream version!
@@FibreBound thanks for knitting along!! My daughter says she loves her Skimmers!! Yay.
I will need to finish my Sunset Highway as well, it has been on my needles forever!! So sorry for customs, I have not had that happen before...... I will look into that... Happy knitting, love your color choice for the Bagnol Sweater!! A joy to watch your episode, like always!!
Customs is a very small price to pay for your incredible yarn!! I am beyond frustrated with our current government taxing us Canadians at every turn. 😠
Have a great BRIGHTLY COLORED summer!!! Hope you recharge and really miss the podcast, and return. Good luck with sock addiction, it’s real.. be well.😊
Thank you ☺️ !!
Great podcast! I know what you mean about WIPs. I have 5 and want to get them finished so I can do more!😂😂😂
You can do it! 😊
Enjoy your break and hopefully you can use it to create beautiful things. I just completed the Nuuk by Jonna Helin using Illimani Feli worsted. It was one of my favourite makes to date both the pattern and the yarn. The construction was really clever, I made mine slightly cropped with longer short sleeves. Your Shetland hats were gorgeous and your new colour phase is fun. Thanks for all your episodes, I've enjoyed every single one.
Oh, that sounds like a fantastic project!! Thank you so much, Sandra. Have a peaceful and wonderful summer.
Great podcast. I feel the same I have way too many projects started and too many waiting in project bags. My mind is full to overflowing. Safe summer to you.
Right!?! Too many awesome patterns!!
I was hoping to run into you, by an off chance, on a flight from Halifax to Calgary last month. It didn't happen to I got on board this episode with you tonight. Fun, as usual. I, too, started off as a monogamous quilter, then knitter. both crafts took me down rabbit holes and I now have many WIPS in both . Or as Darlene from the Cutbank Girls says a Work Thus Far! Enjoy the Summer break and as the old song says, See You in September.
That mint green looks amazing on you! Enjoy your break, but pleeeease come back! 😊
🤗
Hi Leanne! So funny … I started with a spinning wheel , went on a e spinner and now on a supported spindle cause I was away all summer in Newfoundland… away from my lofty batts… lol I love all three different kinds of spinning’s…
@@helenedumoulin9092 that’s really interesting and so good to have the feel for ALL of those methods!!
Welcome to the spinning world! I also have an Ashford Kiwi 3, bought it last summer when I was taking spinning classes. I did a bit of spinning then, but wasn't happy with the lack of twist. Then about 3 months ago I realized I needed to move the drive band to the smaller groove on the whorl! I've been happy since! I did find that a 2-ply of 100 grams doesn't fit on one bobbin, since the yarn fluffy up during plying. So I considered getting a jumbo flyer, and the extra jumbo bobbins. But I ended up getting an Electric Eel Wheel 6.1 by Dreaming Robots. Their bobbins are larger, so I use it mostly for plying. I love my two wheels, Suzie and Daisy. ❤
This is great info!! Thank you! I haven’t named my wheels!!
I love your Sunset Highway! It is coming along so beautifully. And the colours in your Cowboy Crop are fabulous! Thank you for taking us around Windsor and for sharing all your makes. x
Thank you Tash! My daughter loves her Skimmer Socks!
Hope you stay with us with your chats. I can imagine it might get ‘old’ after preparing and hauling it around on your trips etc. Your time is a gift, whether for yourself or with us, so consider carefully to fit your own desires. Look so forward to you and every time I fly, I end up talking to the stews in the gallery while waiting for the potty! They are always delighted to hear about you and the podcast! Cheers. Susan
Thanks Susan! I love that you chat about this with the FAs on your flights ✈️ ..maybe one day I’ll run into you
Your neon phase is looking awesome! I can’t wait to see what you are making next. I hope you won’t feel stressed or trapped by your traveling format. Your videos are just as lovely at home. Have a nice summer. Sincerely, Tania
Thanks so much Tania!
Love your episodes. Always makes me want to get into my car and DRIVE (okay, not to overseas) to your destinations. Not actually fear of flying as much as fear of airport stress. Am in the stash (beyond my life time and many others as well) for the Shetland wool week beanie...have a Colorado son who will identify that ram with a Bighorn Sheep. Many thanks for the work you do to make this podcast and enjoy your break from same...
Hi Ellen! Oh yes I understand airport stress. Driving is great as long as I get to be the passenger and knit !!
Thats so cool. Im very familiar with Windsor, such a beautiful city. I was actually there on local yarn shop day and bought 2 skeins of the Arcane yarn at that shop. I love your cowboy/girl wip, the neons look so nice together.
Thanks Jane’
Great episode! See you when you return...take good care, LeeAnn! 🥰
Thank you! 🤗
What a lovely episode again. Since I am a new watcher/fan I am sorry to hear that your episodes are going to be somewhat sporadic for a while, but I applaud you for taking the time to do what you need to do to take care of yourself! I enjoyed your finished objects as well as all your WIPs. I am delighted to know that I can now go back to watch the first 31 of your episodes that I did not watch in “real time”. I am so looking forward to catching up with your older episodes and will certainly keep an eye out fhe notification when you put out a new episode. Take care of yourself. Safe travels. Salam wa sa’aadah
Yes as we say every day “it’s important to put your own mask on first…” applies to oxygen at 40,000-ft and also applies to taking care of ourselves in life in general. 😊 What does your sign off mean (I’m pretty sure Salam is peace) but the rest?
So glad to see your Sunset Highway. I bought yarn for it when the pattern first came out and promptly misplaced it. Recently found the yarn and you have inspired me. Have a wonderful summer. Meet you in the fall with a bunch of FO’s!
That’s a deal!
Happy Canada Day🇨🇦 Enjoy your break😊 My new license plate reads…STRDKT😊😊 Only a knitter would know😅
Love that!!
❤❤❤
ohh man! I will miss you. I hope you have a great summer and that you get to recharge during this silent time. I will be waiting for the notification of the new episode, though. Wish you success with those long floats, they look very professional but o will be scare to pull them with a button or a zipper. take care and be kind to yourself
🤍🤍💖
2nd comment!! Norman over at Nimble Needles channel has a good tutorial on German short rows and how not to get that darn hole. I’m sure there are others but he had a great explanation on one of his you tube episodes.😊
I'll check it out!
We all love your podcast so much. You kind gentle manner and the interesting trips you take are so good. Do have a restful break. It is not good to run faster than you are able. We applaud you for recognizing this before wearing out. I was wondering if you will be spinning in the Tour de Fleece. This is my first year doing the TdF. Either way, may you have a peaceful lovely summer. We wish you only the best. XOX
Thank you so much! I am participating in the TDF my first time just in a fun casual way!! I appreciate your kind words and have yourself a wonderful summer happy knitting and spinning 😎💖
Thanks! I think fun and casual is the way to go with many things, especially TdF for beginning spinners. Be well.
I made the Garden Cardigan when it first came out. It’s a fun, easy pattern. I used mohair held with merino so I haven’t been able to wear it much, but come the fall, I know I’ll enjoy it.
Oh yes that sounds lovely!!
Thanks again for a lovely episode. Enjoy your summer. I’ve done an “inverted colorwork” and it worked fine. Just had to keep up the other instructions in check…
Great tip!
I am SO in awe of your color work, especially the cowboy themed sweater! Thank you for sharing your making and adventures with us.
Thank you so much!
Enjoy your summer and finishing your WIP's before they become UFO's lol I know someone (me) who's head would likely fit the hat that you said is too small and she's an Aries😉Love your podcasts sis and I look forward to whenever you release Episode 34!! X's
😱 MONA!! That is a match made in heaven!!
@@theknittystewthanks so much for the beautiful hat - I love it so much and you even more ❤ AND it totally compliments the neck shawl you gave me in the hospital after my cancer surgery. God bless you 😘🙏🏻
Great episode! Thanks for sharing about the Norwegian knitting thimble I have purchased one last week and would like to start on a colourwork projects, thanks also for the link to the tutorial 😊 I love the colourful yarns you knitting with!
Let me know how it goes with the thimble. It was a steep learning curve for me as a thrower, but I am glad i stuck to it. My floats hang so nicely and evenly with it!
Hi Leanne,
Great episode, loved all the projects. All the bright colors you have been using are so fun.
Your colorwork is so good. I am really getting the itch for colorwork. I don't want to catch floats and your method with the Norwegian knitting thimble looks really helpful, I will check out the video you suggested, thank you.
I hope you have a great summed and can find some time to unwind from all the stress of daily life.
I know some podcasters don't edit, would that be something you could live with?
Take card
I really try and do the absolute minimal amount of editing these days, only the key element of local footage and adding voiceover to that.
Hi, Leanne, I've had two shipments to the US from Camijoknits without additional taxes. For me, the postage alone is a choke point. BTW, Sunset Highway is the road from PDX to the Oregon coast, US 26. We'll all be looking forward to your return! Take care. XXX
Oh that’s wonderful thank you for letting me know! I would love to drive that highway wearing my Sunset Highway
Thanks for your time and your enthusiasm. Living every second as usual!!! As much as we’ ll miss you, enjoy your break. Wishing you a great summer 🧶✨💕🌷🍃
Thank you! You too!
As much as I'm going to miss your podcasts for a while, I'm glad you're taking some time for yourself, which is so important. That just means we have sooo many FOs to look forward to seeing when you reappear. I hope you have a lovely summer 😊
Thank you so much! There will be a ridiculous amount of FOs 😹
