I requested some questions on Instagram for us to go over on my visit to Amsterdam.
Here we are, hanging out and talking!
We hope you enjoy!
Two beautiful knitters wearing gorgeous knit - bonus:adorable doggie
Stitch is the best! So sweet!
I need to knit the jacket that Stephen is wearing 😍😍
You do! It is beautiful!
@ Is there a pattern available for Stephen's sweater? If so could you please share the pattern name? I would love to knit it.
@@kellyorne8146 I don't think there is... yet!
Oh yes! Please do an episode about music and knitting! The two most important things for me! 🎧🧶
My only fear of getting older is losing my hearing and not being able to move my fingers! 😳
Omg the poor dog scratched to death stop ,!!!!!!
Oh she loves it!
Socks...Just say yes! Don't stress! The world needs your color crazy vibe on our feet! ❤️
10 out of 10. You are my knitting superheroes---thank you for being amazing :)
Thanks for joining us!
I feel like Ive just been invited round for a besties afternoon get together & loved every minute of it. I felt a connection in so many ways it brought a smile to my face & made me excited to look at my stash & patterns. I loved the connection with the seeing colour in music, dance & knitting. I truly got that. Im glad to have discovered you through Stephen x
Thanks for joining us!
just dont knit the same sock twice. why do socks have to match??? THEY DONT HAVE TO MATCH AT ALL
They don't, you are right! Then just make one of each and mix and match :)
This was such a lovely and refreshing video to watch.
You guys are soooooooo lucky, I want to be Stephen and Linda’s best friend too!!!! Love you guys!!!!
Socks please Stephen 😂
Loved loved loved seeing the two of you together! I’m with Stephen on sock knitting. It’s not my favorite but I learned toe up, two at a time when I knit a pair for him. 😂😂
Stitch is beyond beautiful and cute.
What a fun video.
My grandmother knit and it was very stockinette. I finally decided to try and the first project I wanted to knit had a huge cable in it. No one told me could not and I did it.
Oh you two! I want to have coffee with you & cinnamon rolls! I love your chemistry. Stitch is a hoot!😂
I love those criss crosses!!!!
This video was delightful.☺️
The problem with socks is that you have to knit two of them! I used to knit a lot of socks. It was about a 3 year phase. Now, I knit shawls almost exclusively.
I used to knit almost only shawls, but now I always have socks on the go and have no problem in making two.
Aaaand, you can always wear socks that dont match! That way, you can just knit one of each ;)
Linda, your dress is absolutely amazing! Tell me you bought it somewhere so I can buy one too 💖
Thank you!
I got it here: norblacknorwhite.com/
This was a fun video! Did Stephen say what jacket he was wearing?
He did not! It is not a published pattern, but maybe he will turn it into one? I'll ask!
@ Thank you! Every time I see him, I have to add to my pattern stash and to-do list!
is stephen’s jacket patterned yet? i need it!!! you two are wonderful together. loved the chat. thank you. ❤
Very fun Q & A. Can we see more of the Brioche pup? MIss seeing him!! Loved this. Tell us about Linda's book. I'm finally able to buy Painted Shawls from my local yarn shop. Yay!!! I love knitting socks - the honeycomb socks are beautiful. I can't wait for that pattern!!!
My husband learned to knit two years ago, when I inspired 😉him to knit his first ever socks in the round with magic loop. I agree with Linda - teaching or learning how to knit - you have to find something you would like to wear or use, and not be intimidated by learning something new - and have someone handy to help you out when you make mistakes. ☺️(He now also knits sweaters, and has knit a couple of Stephen’s Dustland hats) 😊 Maybe I should try to get him to join MKAL2022 🤔😀.
You guys are the best people! so hot here in NY today and happy I decided to get on here and have you keep me company while I fret about 90F weather lol. Felt joy throughout! the sock is coming along nicely and it's so pretty. Stephen I see how you're not into it because you're right, you know exactly what it needs and can't vary from it except you can because are you so creative. I mean look at the pattern you applied on your sock! the question is will it look great with a traditional heel lol. I think it will. DPNs are okay, I thought it was super sexy to use except when my hands are tired, which is most times, I lose grip of the empty one and it doesn't make me happy to drop anything so I learned magic loop either single or 2@ a time and I'm done. Do what brings you joy! like you always say
Yay h my goodness yes please!! A video all about music 🎶 and knitting and colours and dance!! 💕 Sounds amazing.
Stephen if I can knit socks, anyone can! I mostly crochet but wanted to learn how to knit socks so I did! I'm 4 pairs down and so far only done simple vanilla socks. I tried magic loop which was a big nope! DPN's were a big nope too, 9in short circulars are where it's at for socks! Give it a go! Who ever thought I'd be giving Stephen West knitting advice! Lol!!!
YES we are waiting for that cute pink sock pattern! gorgeous!
Uuuuuhhh! Soooo lovely🥰 sockpatterens …yes please👍🏻
Knit the worsted weight socks that you have designed! Like 2010 or something! haha
Is Stephen wearing a kinda mad lookeylikey Glam Lamb?
If socks are to restrictive for Steve, how about knitting leg warmers? Seems like a dancers dream?
How refreshing and fun to laugh along with you too and the camera lady this was absolutely entertaining and adorable🥰
In order to successfully knit my crisscrosses on my shawlography I had to on the second row of that section remove my inner changeable needle tip and treat the cord like a needle. It would have otherwise been way too tight.
I would love to see a video about music and knitting and texture. I am an avid knitter and musician and it is interesting how many of my knitting friends are also involved in music.
I recently made something that had to have 2 pieces the same and I thought I would not forget what I did. I had to undo 5 times to get the second to be like the first. Notes who knew?
Does he knit? He will! 🧶
Loved seeing you two together, and Stephen, please knit socks!
Thank you Linda for asking about Stephen's lovely grandmother!
Thanks for watching!
His grandma is one of my favorite people! Such an inspiration!
Yes just wonderful so enjoyed this!!!🌻
Lovely podcast 👌 👏 💟💟💟🎨🧦🌈
Yes!!!!!! That is the perfect sock
You guys make an awesome team! ❤️❤️
Yay. I love that you love Drag Race.
Ahhh, if you knit the sock toe up, there is a lot room for unplanned wonders. Who knows how to shape the cuff? Standard, for boots, tight, wide, new pattern, long, sneaker,… 😎 No one says it have to be a ribbed cuff all the time.
True, to each their own.
I have done one toe up sock but was not very happy with it. I like doing them top down and usually knit them with dpn's :)
Such a fun interview
Loved it! All the colors are just happiness everywhere 🥰
Also What’s your the shawl that Linda is wearing? Is there a picture/info of it somewhere for the yarn/colors?
I am wearing the Jigshawl puzzle, such a fun knit!

Ah this was so great! Like sitting in the room with you just listening in :) Plus it was SO nice to hear your Icleandic yes! I grew up in Keflavik, and I miss it so much every day.
Já!
This was awesome. Thanks U 2
Love that you are together! Enjoy!
We are so happy too!
2022 MKAL should be the Symphony Shawl!
Ooooo! Now that's a good idea!
Great Q&A but you all wear mikes so people can hear and understand the questions ask and your answers to it. Hope you did this again.
Sorry, but we did not have mic's on hand (and I do not own one). The sound is fine here, both on my computer and with headphones.
A fun interview and lovely knits. Your dress is gorgeous as well, really beautiful on you 💚 🌈
Thank you! I saw it on Aimee's instagram and fell in love and ordered myself one asap!
So much fun!
Love! What are the colors in the Jigsaw shawl?
He used all sorts of leftovers and scraps for this one, including Qing, La Bien Aimee and others.
This had me guffawing ...the fish slip heel.
You're just funny and beautiful together.
🥰
I suddenly don’t feel so bad about never knitting a sock 😆 though that honeycomb sock is probably the coolest I’ve seen
It is so fun!
@ let us know if you publish that! Even if Stephen doesn’t, that sock pattern deserves to be out in the wild :)
@@MsLunchTime Oh it will get published, no worries! :) I handed in my draft yesterday.
@Yayayay! 🙌🥳 Time to start warming up my DPNs!
Stephen, join summer sock camp, with Kay, and make 3 pairs in a row, cuff down, I find toe up scary, last year I decided I would conquer socks! I bet you would like toe up! They intimidate me, summer lee socks! She loves colour, and magic loop!
