Still waiting for spring over here.

Time goes way to fast when I watch your podcasts....thanks for all you give to us ....enjoy yourself in everything
I always enjoy your podcasts. I'm interested in everything you say and show us. I have a smile on my face the whole of the time. I have recently lost my dear Mother we had her funeral last Monday. Just to think about something different has helped me watching your videos. Thank you ❤
Love Note after you finish your husband’s sweater. He will be thrilled and won’t mind if you then buy more yarn.
Thanks for much for the shoutout Jana. You made me blush! 😊😊 The jumper you are wearing is so pretty. I just bought another skein of boucle to make a teddy clutch - that yarn is so addictive.
Thank you for your company this morning Jana. I love your ramblings: your grandmothers cross stitch sounds so beautiful. And the booknook: totally ready to leap down that rabbit hole. I need such a thing in my life :)
Thankyou for lovely company 🙂⭐🌸knit a lot🙂
Thank for another fun episode. Sometime show us your earring collection. Would be interested in how you display them. 🧶
I think we are living parallel lives here. I had 4 cords of wood delivered this past week and in the last 24 hours we've gone from snow, to sleet, to freezing rain (.5cm of ice coated everything), then back to sleet, then 10cm of snow, and now the wind has picked up. Trees and branches are falling everywhere and lots of people are without power. And my firewood is covered in ice and snow. It's frozen to itself and the ground. Of course, next week is supposed to be 10C, so I'll be able to get to it, but definitely not today or tomorrow. So much for the weekend. haha The little blue flowers are called Grape Hyacinth here in the mountains of NY.
Jana, you are a total joy to watch. Thankyou for another lovely video.
❤️
Thank you for the nice visit. You have great projects going. I hope Spring arrives soon for all of us.
Jana, I'm always happy when your videos arrive. How about knitting a sweater for your daughter with the Noro yarn? Or a matching baby blanket and baby hat set, saved for the next time you need a baby gift. I've had a pattern for a set like that for 20 years and used it several times. I think the designer is Heather Finch, published by Ann Norling patterns.
Always love to sit and listen to you chat while you knit in your cozy corner with Cluck Norris 😊❤
Congratulations ladies ❤ and beautiful how your dress is turning out. And how eurus is beautiful 🩷 how cozy
I'm going for tea. You are always such a blessing for mr to watch.
Your book nook is the first I’ve ever seen. It’s so cute!
Your boucle yarn is gorgeous and I think that white would be an interesting compliment to soften it, but allowing all the colours to shine. 😍
I wondered what that was at the beginning of the video. I have never heard of a booknook and it makes me want to try one too, but I fear falling down that rabbit hole too. lol
I'm a lover of plants both indoor and outdoor. Cute spring set up in the outro. Are those candy eggs?
See you next week. ❤
Happy easter fron vesterof Norway.🐥🐣❤️
I immediately noticed your booknook because we are halfway through one I got for my birthday in December - it's way more time-consuming than I had imagined! Luckily my husband is helping me :)
Watching you while a huge windstorm passes through - though the sun is shining, too, but brrr, chilly today...
Thank you Jana for the time and effort you have put into making this podcast for our enjoyment. Have a good week and hopefully catch you next week. 🧶
Aahh, Jana, those damn rabbit holes. 😏🤭❤️❤️
Thank you for another lovely chat , I love muscari , we used to also call them grape hyacinths, they look beautiful
Grape Hyacinth maybe?
We’re getting snow flurries here in northern New Mexico mountains. Hoping for a slow warm up so spring runoff from mountains will be most beneficial.
Love the language lessons!
I did notice the Book Nook at the beginning - I have one almost finished that I was given for Christmas = it is the Garden House version - very cute, but, yes, very time consuming! I look forward to seeing your other crafts that you are experimenting with this spring! Love the daffodils - so sunny!
KATE DAVIES TREIT pattern beautifully written. Long or short sleeves and short length.choices. love mine
You definitely need a neon happy knit so cast it on now lol
Using your yarn to the max. lol!
Eggatha Crispy says Hi to Glucky! Thank you for the podcast, just what I needed. I also had to rip back this week, after making a mistake in my Whitmoor cardigan and thinking I could just ladder down only to figure out you can't do so in lace (or at least I don't know how to do it without loosing all my stitches...). It was one big mess, so I ripped back and now I'm back on track! Have a wonderful week and see you next itme!
These lovely booknooks, so cute. Happy colors for spring, we all need it, I’ m curious with mohair color you will choose. And with such a colorful shawl a more neutral sweater will work perfect. Have a happy week and some nice easter days off.
Always a pleasure to visit with you Jana! The book nook is adorable! Could you mention where the kit comes from? It is so incredibly detailed! Your Eurus sweater is great! If I hadn't made a vow to use up the yarn I now have for particular projects I would consider adding the Eurus to my dream knits list. Glad you are better!
I need to make that shawl, my name is Nora! Going on a long road trip, I need a project. Love your podcasts ❤️
Your Eurus is beautiful. Cross stitch was my first craft 40 years ago, and I'm back into it this year a lot. I have more projects than I will ever finish. Same with quilting fabric. And probable knitting yarn too. This year my goal is to work from stash and see how much I can finish.
Thank you for the visit today Love the sweater you are wearing and maybe a Love note for spring. Take care and God bless1
Jana, I have been looking at the same Book Nook thing to make with my granddaughter! It was great to hear you talk about it!
How about using that Noro yarn for a Lento and adding some neon stripes to make it go a bit further and spice it up? I totally love your book nook. And I need to order firewood, thanks for the reminder 😄
Definitely getting to be spring here on the west coast of Canada! But it’s also raining………
Finishing the last part of the second sleeve on my Secret Garden Sweater ( by Elenor Mortensen)! So excited to finish. I did finish my chicken! Who would have thought a stuffed toy chicken would be such a delight and comfort! I also finished a Roly Poly Pill Bug (JoansGarden) neck cushion, and some Vamps - very think colour work socks/slippers. They are wonderful inside Crocs or clogs.
Definitely you need that shawl in the cheerful boucle! I love having more than one project at a time, to give me a break, for my hands, and my brain. I love a mindless knit for watching podcasts, and more interesting for just the enjoyment while knitting by the window on on the deck outside when the sunshines.
I’m thinking of a Whitehorse by Caitlin Hunter in a cotton blend for a summery sweater, and finish an Elton (Joji) for my Mom.
There will be crochet as well over spring, for an Afghan/blanket.
Hope spring arrives soon, and hurray for more firewood, nothing like the warmth and crackling of a wood fire, even if it is a lot of work stacking it. I really miss my wood stove, but glad I don’t have to split wood, as I doubt I could now!
So good to see you, via video! I sure enjoy your chats and sharing.
love your hubby's philosophy of getting maximum use out of your yarn. the dress will be soooo worth it the yoke is stunning.
Happy Easter to you and yours!
Thank you for sharing… I happen to have a Ranunculus on the needles, while I finish up my West Dover Cardigan(Noro Kureyon), Alpine Bloom (for my granddaughter’s birthday), a Traveler Cowl (Noro Silk Garden Sock) and a Rumplestilskin (2 Zauberball)!! I’m happy to share the many WIP brain with you… along with spinning (alpaca from a farm) and crocheting Easter baskets/colorful dishcloths!
😂❤😊
You could totally do a sort-sleeved (spring!) Ranunculus out of 900m! And I love your Stormtrooper sweater... and I feel your pain about those 3 mm needles. I have a Jared Flood I started making for my husband about 8 years ago... someday I'll finish it. It's a nightmare of cables... But I think the last time I picked it up I kept good notes about where I was. Hope so! So glad you're feeling better. It's hard with kids in school... it gets better tho! Cheers to spring!
Happy Easter! 🌸🐣🌺🌼🪺💕
Hello!! Yes knitting knitting ❤ that sweater you have on is in my Q as well. I actually did get the yarn for it too! Crochet. Yes that too!! That kimono!!😅 I just finished the second granny hexagon. Whew. Look what you have done to me with all your lovely and inspiring projects❤❤😂
Thank you Jana for such a nice visit. And to answer your question about whether organizing/tidying leads to things being misplaced...yes, it definitely happens to me too. I am powering along on my Nordic knit sweater, last week I joined the first sleeve to the body and I am working on the second sleeve this weekend. My other project is a emotional support chicken and her tail feathers are done. One of our cats crossed over the rainbow bridge today and knitting is definitely helping me through.
Thank you, I am always happy to see you 😊
Thank you, most enjoyable as always
I love your Wervel sweater, so beautiful!!
I needed this podcast today. It was husband’s grandfather’s funeral and I’m so happy to watch this podcast and get a break from crying. So, thank you for sharing! I’m currently working on a gift for my mother in law while I watch. I’m making some crochet potholders in a mint green color. Her birthday is next week, so hopefully I can stay focused and get a matching set done! ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss! ❤️
@@FinnishKnittingStories thank you 💕
I think the craft you are thinking of is called needle felting in English. I like all three of the sweaters you are considering, but personally I would avoid Love note only because I don't use mohair. I Teams messaged at work a week or so ago that I need an emotional support chicken! Haha, the comment was completely lost on my team, but felt good to say it anyway. :D Take care, Jana!
Perfect video! you are very sweet! thank you!
Yep, I too tidied up my craft room and now can’t find the ball of yarn I am looking for. 😢 must mean my stash is too big which isn’t good 😌 I love mint green too, the shawl would look lovely in that colour.
Go Ranunculus with the Noro Silk Garden sock yarn! It’s knit on a 10!!
Fast/furious/silk/beautiful!!
So good to see your podcast today💝
So beautiful sweater ❤️🐓🪴
Use the Noro yarn for a Ranunculus because if you don't have enough yarn, it's the only one that looks good with shorter sleeves.
Yes! You definitely a new shawl. Mint would be a good color choice.....since you have so much pink.
Needle punching is what I know it as leaves a close loop to the fabric seen some great pictures and home items made from it. Needle felting is something I want to try I have a little Polar bear kit I want to make.
Always so lovely to see and hear what you've been up to. I adore your little book nook - how enchanting!
That’s fun! The Latvian for dress is very similar to the Belgian word for it, kleedje, kleed. I’m currently knitting the swallowssweater for my self, a generously sized lady on 2.75mm, so i feel your pain knitting a full size adult sweater on 3mm.
Hi Jana, your Eurus looks so good on you. I bet it is comfy too. Much love xxx
Maybe put a chocolate mohair with the Noro and marl it up
In the UK we call Muscari Grape Hyacinth.
yes, tufting. I would like to do it. I can embroider, but not counted cross stitch. Needs to be stamped.
If blocking the sweater isnt enough, you have to block your hubby.😂❤️
I might have to put him in the dryer. 😄
Fav pod❤
Hi from Hamburg. The Unicorn Boucle is great and makes me happy at once. 🏵💮🌻🌼
Unicorns and yarn make everything better! 🦄🧶🩷
A very cold snowy day in Canada
I heard you got lots of snow today. ☃️
I live near Lake Ontario between the capital city Ottawa and Toronto It snowed here yes! We stayed inside🙂
Love from New Zealand
How about a short sleeve Lento w the Noro? I've swatched for Alpine Bloom by Caitlin Hunter in Anzula Lana apple green & a blue/orange Spincycle. Hopefully I can cast on tomorrow!
I think your Storm Troopers sweater looks brilliant. It tempts me to knit one for my husband, but I’m not as good of a wife as you (3mm needles! 😂)
Hurrah for a unicorn neon spring shawl cast on!!!
Hahaaa, I started it 5 years ago. I think I was a better wife back then. 😄
I’m knitting another pair of socks
Arne and carlos robin teacosy..little robin on top😊
🍀
💞💖
13:28 13:32 wanted to try to send a picture of my front yard. It’s full of bluebonnets (lupine)
Oooh have you seen Urban Acres Punch Rug Club - swoon ❤
Muscari is hyacinth in English 😊
Muscari it’s common name where I live is grape hyacinth a pretty little pop of colour and a harbinger of spring
Patchwork
So if you want to say spring dress is that kvat mekko or otherwise? Thanks for making these videos
Merxi Jana de ce partage j'aimerais faire le welter sweater mais ou trouve t-on le modèle et les rzferences de la laine s'il vous plaît ? Votre travail est magnifique et gravce a cous j'ai fait le emotional support chicken ❤
Where's your beautiful orange Umma Cape?
Needle felting ?
I'm English and can never remember if it's punch needle or needle punch. 😅
Varbūt tā arī saucas angliski? Vismaz zviedriski ir tuftning un es uzreiz spratu, par ko Tu runā.
I'm of Latvian origins.Why do you know Latvian words?
Do you men felting.
So tired of love note. There must be something more interesting out there
But it fits so well over the dresses! 😄
Finish knitting your husband's sweater. I feel bad for him. He'll go naked and you have been at his a while..
He has a shelf full of beautiful sweaters, but he only wears the Star Wars themed ones. 😄
