    Of all your videos l think l loved this one most.
    Really appreciated the deep dive into Jenny's yarn shop. The comparisons of different sheep breed yarn types was really informative and the dyeing absolutely beautiful.
    Especially the stories behind the mixtures of colours . . . The yarn inspired by places are exactly what l long for. If l could paint or dye yarn then creating in response to landscapes would be my thing.
    Exploring ancient landscapes, historic buildings and wild countryside, are very much my loves as well. Thank you for your singing which brought the chapel alive.

    There are no words to express how much your podcasts bless me. Thank you so very much for everything you do and for the poetry and beautiful singing and all the scenery and history, I could go on and on. The image of the chasing goose resembling the Holy Spirits' chasing will stay with me. I have always been fearful of losing my salvation due to my stumbling and it brings such despair. Does He ever give up on us?
    Thank you Andrew for being there and shining Gods Light in this dark world.

    I’ve been to Jenny’s shop twice - the only two times I’ve ever been to Berwick. Completely tripped over it the first time I went to the town and the second time was when I was cycling the Scottish Borders in August and deliberately delayed my trip there so that I could spend some time in her shop. She’s so lovely and so interesting. Her yarns, patterns, knitted pieces, trinkets and entire shop are just beautiful. Well worth visiting Berwick for! Thanks for a fab podcast and God bless you, Andrew.

Our city sits on both banks of the River Derwent and on the Eastern Shore there is a suburb named Lindisfarne and the Catholic School there is named St Cuthberts - we have so many Uk names here 😊 I very much enjoyed your visit to Jennie’s shop and will most definitely visit her website 😊

Not to mention the beautiful stop at Jeannie's and yarn colors at the end! Thank you so much.

I loved seeing the little chapel, enjoyed your singing of the beautiful hymn, and, one of my favourite things in knitting podcasts is seeing inside yarn shops. As I finish watching, I am about to do the very thing Jennie talked about: block a shawl. Blocking makes all the difference, especially in the look and fit.

    When I first saw this video was over 50 minutes long, I wasn’t prepared for that when it popped up in my subscription list last night. But today is a hard day for me (the anniversary of my husband’s passing) and I thought, why not. It was lovely, Andrew. Thank you for a soothing way to start what will be a difficult day. I was moved by the gentle song in the chapel then was energized by the tour of the yarn shop. A perfect combination.

Forgot that living on an island requires a few additional parcels and other cargo. 🤣. Got the Dustland pattern. 🎉. Using handspun so don’t anticipate getting the same stitch definition with semi worsted…. But then perhaps any errors won’t be as glaring. 👍. Looking forward to your next video.

    Hello Andrew, just returned to S. Tasmania from the UK, sad to say we didn’t make it up to Scotland and rather sad as possibly this was our last five month visit to our old homeland, so a stop on a cruise last year on Orkney will be my one & only visit. All my life despite my Welsh heritage i wanted to go to the Hebrides and walk….i will therefore continue to follow you. That certainly was a peaceful calm crossing to the mainland, just beaut.
    What a beautiful first church(chapel)certainly i could sense peace when you entered. The hymn was perfect. And Jennys shop gorgeous wool.

    I was in Northumberland at the same time as you. The day we had planned to go to Bamburgh Castle it was closed because of the storm so we went up to Berwick instead and I found Jennie’s shop. Came away with a skein of her lovely hand spun.
    Next time we get up there I’m going to find Fine Fettle Yarns near Morpeth. Didn’t get to Barter Books or Lindisfarne this time but they’ll be on the list for next year. Lovely episode great to find someone else who appreciates Northumberland as much as I do.

That was really interesting and useful, as a non-seasoned knitter. 😊 I live across the pond, quite far away, but I’m going to look at her patterns at the very least, and possibly order some skeins in the future, if I can!
