Can I just say I absolutely LOVE the 3+ hour long podcasts 🥰 it feels like I’m just hanging out with my friends ❤
I support the lymphoma and leukemia society by fund raising for light the night. I am a leukemia and bone marrow transplant survivor.
Apparently you don't realize how popular and influential you two are!! We all love you two and all you accomplish! You sure are a big influence on me!! Thanks sooo much!!!
I’d love a sweater talk podcast. You’ve been so prolific with your sweater knitting - I can remember them all!
Oh my, when you put that hat on w your sweater, I fell in love w you. Perfect. You look great and your garments are glorious. Fun time today.
OMG--I didn't want this episode to end!! I milked it out as long as I could. I ended up being 1 1/2 hours away from Rhinebeck and didn't go--my husband and I were on a leaf peeping trip, which was wonderful, but I don't think I could have dragged him there.. So, I had huge FOMO, and all you shared brought the event to life for me. I would have liked to have been there to see you and the other people I only "know" online as well as all the yarn!! Hopefully another time. Meanwhile, I would love to see you at Stitches West next March!! You two have kept me company as I knit at home, and I LOVE your podcasts!! Thank you for all you share and the joy you bring to so many people!
I LOVE y’all! Thank you so much for being who you are. You cast a net of welcome and encouragement so wide with such joy, fun, and honesty. ❤️❤️❤️
Hello Dear
How are you doing today?
Don’t worry about how long your pod casts are. They’re are so interesting and enjoyable. Plus one can always pause it and pick it up where you left off.
Hello Dear
How are you doing today?
You 2 are so awesome! I love that you talk about all things yarn for 3 hours!!! The best time! I knit while I listen and watch and it makes me so happy ❤
OMG Jodi that shawl is stunning! How sweet you were gifted that!
You both are such a hoot! 😂 I don’t do well in crowds either, especially since Covid. Love your pod cast, a very fast 3 hours. You always are great info on shops and yarn. Thank you! 😊❤
Love the smiles and recounting of stories about the travel to the east coast. Very touched by your sharing emotions of seeing and hugging strangers and friends. All the drama and isolation of the pandemic made seeing others one if the best rewards of our lifetimes. Stay healthy and real.
I have been binge watching all of your old episodes! So glad to see this posted today!!!! Jodi, your skin is absolutely glowing!!!!!! Traci, pretty as always! Okay, now back to watching!
Hello Dear
How are you doing today?
Such a fun recap and it was a pleasure to meet you two in person in NY! 😘
Hello Rhonda
How are you doing today?
I love your long long episodes. Totally great company while I knit. And I so appreciate all the makers you introduce us too!
I purchased the hope and sunshine bundle and can’t wait to knit the hope & sunshine socks. They are gorgeous!
I'm watching the replay and I'm from Saratoga Springs! I'm so glad you guys enjoyed your time there. It's a beautiful place!
I love hearing about your travels to Rhineback. The shawl you were gifted is beautiful!! Your podcasts are never too long. Love watching you girls
I loved listening to you both and your experience in Rhinebeck. I live in NY but never have been able to go myself and now I'm getting to old for all that walking. Your episode today almost made me feel like I was there. Thank you so much!
I was so happy to see you in person and get my picture taken with you. You were the ones who told me about Rhinebeck! I drove 5 hours home on Saturday night. It was tough. I met Miss Babbs and the designer of the sweater I am going to make in her booth! Best day EVER!🎉
Never EVER to long! Thank you for the recap of Rhinebeck. Can’t wait for the sweater episode.
Oh Jodi your sweater looks so much better with the raised neckline. The way it is now makes you square and when you raised the neckline it rounds you more and makes you look younger. ( if that makes any sense haha) yes please make a “just sweater tawk”
Hello Ladies! Thank you for the recap of your travels. 3 hours is great. Hopefully you can do this after Vogue Knitting NY!!!
Hello
I appreciated your thanking the folks who put on the event as it must take so much behind the scenes work before hand.
Thank you soooo much. I feel like I can imagine the festival a little more! You girls are the best ❤
I just love, love, love your podcasts and think an all day marathon would be so AMAZING!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing your trip ! The Hope and Sunshine Socks look like they give kisses with their cables crosses, lovely pattern. Thanks Tracy !
I would love a sweater episode. Never too long !!!
Hello Nicole
It was great to see both of you again!! Another wonderful episode. Loved hearing about Rhinebeck!
Totally would love a sweater only video. Just getting into knitting sweaters for myself and my husband so I think this is a wonderful idea.
So, I pretty much knit half a sleeve watching you two today. Yes, do a podcast marathon!
I’m knitting 2 at a Time Magic Loop technique (for the first time), with a To The Macks sock set called Lemon Tree that I bought ages ago. Loving every stitch and these colors are amazing
I missed you guys so much! Thank you for spending your time to brighten our days 💕☀️
As a native of Upstate NYer (I live about 30 mins west of Albany) I would absolutely encourage flying in and out of Albany International Airport...it's a smaller airport, so it's easy in and out (not a ton of lines) and then it's a very easy, very beautiful 1 hour drive from Rhinebeck. It's probably your best bet going forward...
Ps-been watching you ladies for years, and I would absolutely DIE if I got to see you at another Rhinebeck weekend!!!
Jodi,,,,,the shawl is definitely your colour! Great podcast girls,,,,,I always enjoy your upbeat personalities.
Hello Dear
How are you doing today?
I loved your recap! I’ll never get to anything like Rhinebeck, so it’s awesome I can enjoy hearing about it. I do think how blessed you both are, by having each other. How wonderful to have a sister that shares the same love of knitting and Fiber etc, and also be good friends as well as sisters. I think that, and your fun interactions with each other keeps me coming back. You are both so different, but such a complement to each other. See you online in 2 weeks!
Ps I pretty much always do a way smaller amount of stitches on my neckline cast ons, because yarn always grows, and the weight of the sweater pulls the neckline bigger. The other option is I cast on with a spare bit of yarn or do a crochet cast one, then knit with my sweater yarn for 2 rounds. After I finish the sweater, I undo the crochet cast on, and knit the neck band for a perfect fit. But there have been times when a sweater has been worn a long time and the neck stretches, that I use the handy crochet edge method! Cheers!
I get a lot of knitting done listening to you two. You may talk as long as you want! Enjoy every minute.
Your over sharing is like a beautiful hug! I love to hear all the wooly details 🐑🦙❤
I love the colour of Jodie’s sweater, just machine stitch a couple of inches into the sleeve holes and graduate down the sides. Then either use the crochet solution for the neckline or fine elastic - most of my makes are subject to “after work” xx Sue UK xx 🤭
Love love love your podcast! You girls are great!
Thank you so much for being part of the Breast Cancer fundraiser! I went on line and ordered the bundle immediately! 🤗
I would so love a tour of your sewing room, Jodi! Thank you for this episode 😘
Thank you once again for keeping me company today. I finished the toe of a DK sock and crocheted a DK MCN held double with suri alpaca wrist warmer whilst listening to all your news. GG watching and gift making score = ✅
Thank you for another inspiring podcast. I've been home recovering since the summer so this really helps keep my spirits up and in touch with what is happening in the knitting world. Thank you again,
It´s going to make an amazing anything.... Thats my favourite quote of this episode!
Thanks for sharing all the fun. Someday I will treat myself to a pair of Joji boots. Yup I know the size and the color.
I am SO happy I was able to get one of the Hope & Sunshine bundles on Saturday. Breast cancer runs in my family. I have a grandmother, an aunt, and two cousins that are survivors. My Mom was diagnosed in February this year. She had her last round of chemo in September and she will start radiation soon. This is a cause that is literally and figuratively close to my heart.
The new shawl is absolutely stunning on you Jodi! Wear it in good health.
Maybe you can stay at the Airbnb at Wing and a Prayer Farm when you head to Vermont! I went to Rhinebeck on Sunday and what a pleasure!! And didn't buy a thing and loved every second of inspiration and fun walking around!!
Hey girls, you make my fortnight. I’m going on my first yarny cruise to NZ with princess cruise company from Australia this Friday through unwind yarn cafe in Melbourne australia ❤
Love your marathon 3 hours! Your Rhinebeck recap and show & tell was wonderful, as I knew it would be. Thanks!
A Sweattah weather episode sounds awesome!!
What a great live! I am sorry I missed it but loved ❤watching after! I hat so much fun while knitting on MKAL2022. 😂❤🎉
So amazing you two- you make my life so fun!!
Thanks for letting me take your photo at Wool and Folk so I could send it to my sister who wasn't able to attend. I felt like I was intruding but you two were very nice about it. Thanks again.
Thank you! I couldn't watch live, but I loved every second of this episode!
love love love that you showed how to do some troubleshooting
I wish I had run into your guys. Maybe next time! My mom and I went to Maryland Sheep and Wool a few years ago. It was a very nice show but it was too hot to put me in the mood for yarn. It was in the 80s. My first stop at Rhinebeck this year was Thread and Maple for the binder and insert. Thanks for the heads up on their products. Gorgeous quality!
Happy Birthday Georgia!!!
Sweater Talk yes please!!! You two have so much experience and great suggestions. Oh, and please make it at least 3 hours!! ❤️
You can make an I cord on your sock machine. take all the needles out except 4 or 5 and make sure to weight it. It goes super fast.
Yes, please do a show about sweater knitting. I would like to see sweaters you have done plus the reasons you choose to wear or not wear them as much. I think that would gives sweater makers ideas when they are making self choices. Thanks for thinking of it!
Jodis earings looks great with her hair cut. Beautiful❤
Thank you for supporting breast cancer research. As a survivor I want to thank everyone who has ever donated, spent time raising funds and providing caregiver assistance to women with breast cancer. This support has made it possible for some of us to forego chemotherapy because we now know there are different types of cancer. I am one of the fortunate ones who could be treated with anti-hormonal therapy, meaning I only have to take a small pill every day and receive bone strengthening infusions every six months. I thank God every day for those who have worked so hard to support research making these advances in treatment possible. Blessings to you all!
THEE BEST ! Just Love you both !!!!!!!! Thank you ~ Thank you !!!! xo xo marcia
Loved spending the evening with you hearing about your adventures. Hugs
Love your podcast. Thank you for showing your new beautiful stash!
Jodi, your sweater almost looks like the Easy Sunday Morning Sunday sweater with shorter sleeves! I love that sweater! That color looks stunning on you!
3 hrs 13 min. 💛💛💛. I watched Friday nite, as Saturday, my normal night for watching I will have my grandson with me. He would probably not enjoy it 🤷🏼♀️, but I love it tonight…..so much to see and love and check out. Too late tonight. You girls are the best at lifting me up. Thanks. Tried to donate tonight, but nothing would let me get through, 😢.
Loved seeing all of your beautiful acquisitions and hearing about Rhinebeck!
Great podcast ladies. I could listen to you all day. BTW, the SpinCycle Moon Beams Yarn color looks like Necco wafers!
Great show. We love to see what you get when we could never get there to find these awesome small businesses. And I snagged the Hope and Sunshine bundle from LouieandLola 😍😍👏🏼👏🏼
I’m so sorry to hear Jodi got sick…glad you’re better now. Brooklyn General did have kits for the wool and folk cowl - la bien aimee ❤ can’t wait to make mine
I didn't watch the live, so I have had the most wonderful time watching now. I had supper with you , a snack, got a lot of knitting done on a pair of Salt Water Vamps (Newfoundland pattern), oh, and pee breaks. Hugs from Nova Scotia.
Feel better Jody! Hope you stay healthy Tracy🎉, missed you both!
I live a few minutes from Saratoga Springs and I’m so happy to hear how much you enjoyed it! I didn’t make it to Rhinebeck this year, hopefully I be there in 2023! My dream is to meet the two of you there someday.
I noticed many of my sweaters had big neck lines so I started going way down on my needles size changing the needles up every couple rows.
Love this, thank you guys!
Thank you for collecting for breast cancer research. I just finished 5 months of chemotherapy. I’m 67 and it’s a tough road to travel. 🎃
Thinking of you, Nancy & sending love and strength. 💖💖
Prayers and blessings your way. Keep up the fight.
Love love love a super long podcast❤ One day I will get to Rhinebeck. A tip for you both paint your earrings with clear nail polish & this provides a barrier between your skin & the post or hook. I have shocking metal allergies & this works a treat
New York is just a fun place to go
You will have so much fun you won’t even notice the crowds
Yes for sweater talk
Lovely to see you both again! Jody, I think you can save your yellow sweater if you use a serger to take it in on each side starting at the cap sleeve ribbing and continuing down the sides to the bottom of the body (approximately 2 inches on each side).
I’d say fly into NYC and enjoy a night in the city then take the train the next morning to Rhinebeck (about 2 hours of knitting) next time you go :)
we did that last time. Very fun too
DARN IT! I missed you guys by 12 minutes 😭 I have been counting down the days
Yes, sweater episode! Past knits, future knits, etc.
Yes! Please sweater talk! Need hat talk too! You gals rock!
Love you ladies!! You two are a hoot!
Great episode, as usual 😍 I love how upbeat and inclusive you two are. I would love an episode on sweaters, see what your two have made, what you wear and why. I would also love to hear which wools you prefer and why. I don’t like peeling, i like a clean look, can you also include that in the discussion? Wools that age well, show details and stitches best? 🤗
I love the long visit!
I enjoy every long bit of your videos. Lol !!! I’m so excited when you gals are podcasting because I know it’s a good show / movie to watch. I love that they are long. I’m hanging out with my friends (even though you don’t know me) but you are my friends.
The slub and mohair by lux is set up for the shawl Tassels In the Sky.
Jodi on your yellow sweater you could put in Dolman sleeves and It would look great.
A lot of knitting done while watching you two! 😄😂
Sorry to have missed you live girls. I have been trying to convince local designers to produce a kit for a Fair isle yoked jumper. I just knew Traci would be into it. I think it's very much your vibe. I will let u know when and if it comes available. Much love from Shetland xxx
Ps a video on 'sweater talk ' including different yarns and fibres and how they behave when knitted xxx
Also, I vote for the 12 or 24 hour knitting LIVE marathon and a fundraiser and take pledges for several good charities. I'd stay up with you both.
Great idea about sweater talk. ❤
Loved this! You two are amazing😍🥰😘
Hey girls, you should come to The Wool Gathering in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Next one is September 16 & 17, 2023. They have 80+ vendors. No entrance fee. Love your podcast 😊
Thank you for sharing your 'fails'. It will give new knitters the confidence to know that even people who they may see as experts, have knitting issues too. Also the joy of knitting is if you don't like it , it can be ripped out and knit again.
You need to come to Yarndale Uk September 2023 x
Hi Ladies 😊 Tip: If you add neosporin to the earring inserts (the part that goes into your piercing) this will prevent the itchiness while you are wearing your beautiful earrings. If you try it let us know if it works. BTW I’ve been watching since day 1. 😊
