Thank you so much for the mention, Jonna. Delightful when the people you watch start watching you 💞😌 Always a pleasure to watch you and Kim.
You’re so welcome! I just love your channel and aesthetic. I’ll be rewatching your episodes until there is a new one. I love your Spot sweater! What an amazing accomplishment.
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna Thank you so much - it’s in the works 🤍
I love the Teddy footage at the end! He's so cute and rambunctious. We lost our dachshund (Linus) at 12.5 years back, in 2014; we got two more to "replace" him in early 2015. I LOVE them so much, but even now, I sometimes find myself tearing up when I think too much about our last moments with Linus. The missing him never really goes away, but the accompanying pain does lessen. Hang in there.
Thank you so much. I do miss him every day. It’s taking awhile to bond with Teddy. He’s a very different dog. I know it takes time and it will come. 💙 He’s doing much better at the dog park these days. He’s getting a big haircut tomorrow!
What a wonderful idea to make “mama” bracelets for those special women that made us grandmas!
💕
Beaded bracelets, such a wonderful, thoughtful gift!! Just “playing” is a lot of fun! Kids again, again!😊
Garden looks beautiful, love asparagus!!! and all the other veg & herbs!
Thank you 💕
What a lovely video! It sounds like the merlot fabric you bought will go beautifully with the sweater you’re wearing today. I loved seeing your garden at the end. And Teddy is just darling.
💕
I recently found Helle with Danish Musings and fell in love with her personality/style right away. She has just recently started showing her knitting, I hope she stays with showing her knitting, it’s beautiful!
Your beading looks fun and has a lot of thought and feeling into it. Very cool.
I am very envious of your garden!!! 🌸🌷🌹❤️
Thank you. I had the same thought about Helle! She seems pretty passionate about knitting, so I hope we see more of it!
Bracelets are such a lovely gift. I made my friend one many years ago when she was going through a very challenging time and then during the pandemic she took up the hobby and now started a side business. She’s bringing lots of joy to many people.
🐸💪🏻🥰
Love Danish Musings, her back (non knitting) catalogue is also wonderful. She knits amazingly!
Teddy is so cute, thanks for sharing 💕
What a lovely story. It’s so nice to have something tangible to touch when we have those hard moments. I’ve found a lot of comfort in mine.
I love the thought behind the bracelets you made. Amazonite is one of my absolute favourites. Loved seeing your garden and Teddy too.
What an enjoyable video! You seem so relaxed in front of the camera, now, Jonna! Quite the professional! I also love to watch Danish Musings! What a peaceful and meditating way to knit along! Teddy is so adorable! I have a ten month old mini Aussiedoodle and they would have great adventures together! You have also inspired me to get my garden in gear. 🥰
Thank you so much for the sweet, encouraging note. It never feels natural, but then, I guess, I forget myself and get into it! Talking about making is the easy part! Have a wonderful day.
Great podcast! Loved your bracelet making. Thank you for sharing your garden and new pup with us.
Such an enjoyable episode Jonna. I watched with my Saturday morning coffee and knitting, prior to starting household chores. Love the idea of the bracelets you made for your loved ones! And footage at end of Teddy and you gardening was perfect! Gillian in Ontario ❤
He finally dug up one of my blueberry plants yesterday! Oh, Teddy.
Morning Jonna, such a lovely time spent with you and all your crafts. I am a huge fan of Danish Musings ,Ihave followed her for some time, she has the most wonderful speaking voice and always leaves me feeling enlightened. As do you, thank you for your time, so inspiring.
You’re so welcome. I’m going to go back and rewatch all of Helle’s episodes. She is lovely!
Always enjoy catching up with you, love the beads!
Awe, so touching and personal. The catching up episodes are such friendly additions to your collection of videos. You and Kim are both such special people.
The bracelets are so beautiful and incredibly thoughtful gifts❤ they will be treasured.
Happy Mother’s Day!
Have fun at the yarn crawl tomorrow. I was hoping to take a ride your way to say hello and do a little shopping at Pick up Every Stitch but the due to the heavy rain tomorrow I will not make it out your way. Hope there will be another chance in the future.
Thank you and next time! The rain was crazy!
Danish Musings, along with Knit with Kim and Jonna are my most looked forward to youtubers. ❤
Wow, thank you! She was just in NYC! I’m watching her blog now.
I love your craft room. Very inspirational.. Great podcast!
I love your bracelets! How fun! I love playing with pretty things (don’t we all??) And, oh, I’ve been tempted by that granny square course! Look forward to seeing how your granny square blanket progresses.
Thank you!
Thanks Jonna, for a wonderful podcast to decompress with, it sure has been that kind of a week!
I’ve bought a lot of crystal bracelets and jade charms which has certain meanings back in the days! This year is the year of the rabbit. If you like, you might want to add a bead or jade with a rabbit on it to signify the birth animal of your new grand daughter! Just a mere suggestion.
You are lucky that Teddy don’t want to drink the water from the hose. Every time I water the garden plants from the hose in my son’s house, his corgi wants some water. I could never use the hose without him having some!
Thanks for sharing and being my knitting company! Happy knitting, crocheting, sewing, and gardening! ❤❤
Thank you for your sweet comment. The year of the rabbit bead is a great idea. I looked into birthstones but they’re costly, so this is a great idea.
Yeah, Teddy just barks at the hose. 🤣
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna Birth stones are very expensive, you can look for little jade animals in Asian street vendors in street festivals, I would not recommend you buy it in a jewelry store because they will charge a lot. I bought a lot of these for my kids when they were young.
I will let you know if I see any. I live in one of the five boroughs of NYC. Besides the rabbit, what is the other grand child’s zodiac animal (as you are putting the two grandchildren’s jade in one bracelet)?
You will love crochet. Granny squares are beautiful! I have a scrap granny square blanket I made that is one giant square♥️
I love watching Danish Musings as well. You and Kim have similarities and I enjoy all of your styles in u tube videos. So relaxing and so real.
The bracelets are wonderful. What a great Mother’s Day gift to the mothers in your life. Love catching up. 😊
Really enjoyed this episode. I sew, crochet, knit and I also do beading. Thanks for mentioning Danish Musings. I just watched her and now hooked!! You looked so adorable in your yard planting. The Bay Area has been warm and sunny this week and I’m ready for some gardening. ❤
Be sure to watch the Spot episode! It’s a work of art. I love how she talked about her color choices.
Where in the Bay Area? I grew up in Redwood City.
The bracelets are so pretty and thoughtful mother's day presents, thank you for sharing them.
I also enjoy crochet granny squares and see how all the colors come together when seamed together. I just finished a granny square vest, may be I should share the pic in our Facebook group.
Please share!
Love how the dolls dress/tunic matches your top/dress she just needs a cardigan now Lol So cute is the frog!! You are such a clever lady with the bracelets, what a wonderful idea xox
💕 I made the doll for my grandma and got it back when she died. She smelled quite like cigarette smoke! She’s mostly clean now. Perhaps she does need a pink sweater now that she’s in NY?! 💕
❤
The bracelets are both unique and thoughtful. But that reflects on who you are, it comes through in each podcast. Oh Jonna, our Chichi (chihuahua) was our love, was so smart, and just the cutest. When she passed, we rescued our Ginger (chihuahua and miniature pincher mix) and love her just as much. Different personalities- each of them unique. Teddy was so cute at the dog park. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you, Donna. I was just tell my husband yesterday, that Henry wasn’t a dog to me. Chihuahuas are so special. Teddy is a dog LOL!! He’s getting sweeter by the day, though.
What a lovely catch up Jonna, love your bracelets that you made. I also found Danish Musings and absolutely love it. Helle's knitting is beautiful and has made me want to knit a few of the sweaters she has made and in particular those patterns by Aegyo knits. I saw Helle's note below, sending best wishes from the UK x
I had no idea she knew our channel! Her knits are just stunning. The episode on her Spot sweater was so good. Since there’s only 5 episodes so far, I’ll have to watch them all twice.
Parsley, Sage, Rosmarie and Thyme is line from the song "Scarborough fair" 😅
I started watching Danish musings recently too and everything she works on is breathtaking ❤ My daughter and I loved to see your puppy at the end! Su cute and fluffy!!
Thank you 💕
I enjoyed your mini episode
Your beaded bracelets are lovely especially when each bead has a meaning between you and that person you gift !! Just lovely 💝
Have a great week to come 💝😊🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thank you!
My yellow mop of a Golden Doodle who is being hugged to the point of annoyance. I'm so sorry about your loss. Henry sounds like he was a great friend.
Awe thank you. He was truly the best dog. Teddy is trying LOL.
Thank you for this lovely episode dear Jonna (and I think Kim too for the editing part?)!
Yes, Kim does the hard part! 💕
I discovered Danish Musings a while back and love her aesthetic as well. Make sure to watch the episode where she talks about her Spot sweater. It’s a work of art. Thanks for the catch-up-isode.
I am going to watch it twice!!! I agree, it’s a work of art!
So happy to see you! I have watched all of Danish Musings and I absolutely love her!! We have very similar tastes!! Hugs from Virginia 23:13 ! Will I see you at Maryland Sheep and Wool next weekend?
Yes!! We’ll be there! Should we wear boots? 😳😳😳
Beautiful bracelets! I like your doll also, Jonna… can’t wait to see the bear with the pyama’s… 😊 thank you for this episode.. rhubarb is also nice to plant… you can make cakes with rhubarb… that’s also delicious.. 😊 good luck and have a nice weekend 😍love from the Netherlands..
💕 my mom and grandma used to make strawberry rhubarb jam and pies!
What a lovely episode, thank you! SO much to enjoy in it. I'm excited about your Homage to the Granny Square course. They keep coming up in my Instagram feed and are absolutely stunning. I'm sure you're going to have so much fun with it. Looking forward to hearing what you have to say about it. Take care x
Thank you, Helen!
Thanks for the fun podcast. I can't wait to see what you learn in your granny square classes. Beautiful bracelets.
Thank you! It starts today. I am just collecting my paints. I’m not a painter, at all, but I’m excited to experiment.
You can make stitch markers with your leftover beads.
Great idea!!
Enjoyed your video, I thought your gift to I Am a Sarah was so thoughtful.
The bracelets are beautiful!
Thank you, Klaske
Really appreciate your toy knitting experiences. I was able to find Clare Garland on your Toys episode last year and just bought her Woodlands book so that I can knit something for my granddaughter. A toy will be a new experience for me. Therefore really appreciate recommended patterns/designers.
You’ll love her patterns!
Hello! It’s so funny,I was watching the Danish musings podcast last week and I thought “Jonna would love that kind of knitting”. Helle seems so calm and “posée” I don’t know the word in English. I’m glad you found her.
So funny! I love her knitting and lovely disposition. Posée is poised?
I looked in the dictionary and I would say placid, calm, composed.
Thanks for a lovely relaxing minisode (for me, pretty busy for you, Jonna). I love the thoughtfully designed mama bracelets that you made. I am sure your daughters will love and cherish them. I will NOT be making those ties- they sound like way too much work and my hands ache just thinking about it. 😅 A basic slipover will have to do for me, although I am sure you will really enjoy yours once it is done. Your raised bed gardens look wonderful. I think they have been a genius invention to help rickety aging bodies like mine continue to be able to enjoy gardening, when the ability to get up and down off the ground diminishes. I do not take my little dog to dog parks. Too many dogs with no reliable recall and dog handlers not paying attention. It only takes one or two bad experiences and you can end up with a fearful dog. Prim is very small and has survived several attacks from dogs who “wouldn’t hurt a flea”, but obviously just did- small dogs can look like prey and prey drive is strong in many dogs. Fortunately Prim is ever the optimist and has been ok. Prim does several dog sports- agility, rally obedience, tricks, so lots of training over the years. I have yet to find a trainer who recommends dog parks. There you go, my totally unsolicited opinion. Lol! Teddy is adorable!
Prim sounds like a great dog! Thank you for the advice. We’ve tried a few times and he doesn’t love it. We’re fortunate that it’s a huge park and usually very quiet.
I won’t be making another Amy Slipover!! I do love it though 💕
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna Thanks, Prim is a character, but a great companion, sitting beside me while I knit. She is also a therapy dog with St. John’s Ambulance. We go to an extended care home, a hospice and wellness visits for businesses and other community events, which she really loves.
I am working on granny squares also, love it.
Thanks for the episode. The bracelets are a lovely Mother’s Day gift. Darling frog. Thanks for the mention of the Danish Musings podcast. I’ll have to check it out. Love dogwoods and redbuds.
💕
I've been noticing a lot of dog parks out here (Southern California) that are sectioned off with signs for Big Dogs and Little Dogs. The chain link fences often have slats in them so that they aren't fighting through the fence too. Seems to work.
I wish they had a section for small dogs. If there are big dogs we don’t go. He does ok with just a few small dogs. It’s a huge area, fortunately.
@Knit Together with Kim & Jonna It's nice to have a place where they can safely play & where you can dump the bags instead oh leaving them!
Love watching your podcasts! Did you know that tarragon spreads like crazy in the garden? I'd put it in a large pot to be safe. I discovered this the hard way when I had tarragon hill in my Greenwich garden.😮
Really?! I didn’t. I have a hard time growing it. It did just OK last year and didn’t come back. I put the mint in a pot because it was everywhere! No shortage of mojitos!
Loved the catch up episode! Those bracelets are really beautiful and filled with love, can't imagine a better Mother's day gift ! Your frog turned out to be sooo cute with that sweater :). It was great to see your dad enjoy the outdoors while you were at the garden. I hope you did finish the second tie, it will be worth the marathon 🏃. Can't wait to LYS day !
Can't wait to meet you!!
Good grief, that adorable face! I would totally be the weak zebra and give him all the things lol!
Haha, he got even cuter today. Haircut!!
Such a nice catch-up, and love the bracelets. Beading does get pricey but it's so pretty! Did you make all your planter beds? Also have to ask about your gardening boots. Love your yard. All the best, Kimberly
Hi! My son in law built them for me. I think he used directions he found online. My boots are Blundstones! 💕
❤
I love the concept of letting your inner critic take a walk. I need to remember that one. I’m such a fan of yours! Love your style, taste, and great detailed information on your knitting discoveries. I too love my pets very strongly, and completely understand the pain of losing 3 of them so far. I’m so glad you have Teddy, and hope he keeps your heart full. I still tear up on occasion when thinking of Lucas Lloyd, Cheyenne, and Winston. But Kara, Dilly, and Jasmine fill my chair while I knit, and love giving extra loves every now and then. ❤
Thank you so much! It sounds like you have armfuls of puppies! Teddy is growing on me. It’s taking awhile! I do miss Henry everyday. I always say to Teddy, “Henry would think we’ve lost our minds!” Henry would not approve. LOL!!
A lovely episode. The frog is a delight. Bead bracelets are a great gift. Enjoy the dogwood, a tree not commonly grown in the UK. 🇬🇧
I love your episodes. Your bracelets are beautiful and what a fantastic idea. I would love to know more about your summer sewing skirt projects. Which patterns you love the most. The little frog is the cutest. Thanks so much for doing these!
I need to sit down and decide what to make! I’m still in the lookout for a good dirndl skirt pattern. I mostly prefer an A-line skirt. The pattern I used for my wedding skirt. It must be in the show notes somewhere!
Great idea with the Mama bracelets. Is there such a thing as a cheap hobby?❤😂
😂
I love every bit of this. First of all, the precious gift (so sorry for your loss because they truly are family members and it's so hard to lose them). But also, the fact that you then ran with that beautiful idea and made such meaningful, touching, intentional gifts. I just love it so much!! Plus, they turned out so lovely!
😊❤✨
Thank you so much. It was such a joy to do! I can’t wait to gift them.
Such a fun, engaging catch-up-episode!! You’re lovely to listen too! Love your bracelet making and your honesty in choosing materials for them!!❤️❤️
Thank you 💕
Danish Musings is absolutely one of my favorites and glad you found it. Her episodes prior to the knitting ones are also so lovely and a wonderful way to start a morning with your coffee and knitting.
Did you see she was just in NYC?! So fun to see her around our city.
Yes, I saw NY through fresh eyes!
I signed up for the Homage to the Granny Square also. Looking forward to starting tomorrow. I hear that there is 6 weeks of color theory before the crochet starts. I decided to use Cascade 220 dk
So fun! I’m collecting my paints. I was just looking at Cascade 220 online after hearing a podcaster (An Italian Knitting Podcast) talk about it. I guess I’ll wait to see what develops during the color theory part of the class.
That was such a delightful episode, you definitely encouraged me fixing my own bracelet which I love so much, beads all over! I watch Helle too and I like her calm way of presenting. Have a good harvest in your garden. 🌟
😊
Love the bracelet s I also signed up to do the mercerise granny blanket can’t wait am just going to use stylecraft as Rowan bit too expensive for me will b great to see your journey too
So exciting!!
I swear that my BP drops several points when I hear your intro music. Your raised beds are beautiful! I need to build some more, but I am still recovering from abdominal surgery so I will not be having much of a veggie garden this year - just some tomatoes, leftover chard from the winter, and my herbs. Summer gardening is becoming increasingly difficult here anyway because of our climbing summer temps and worsening drought. Did you finish your ties? Watching while working on my Kuutar in KFO Pure silk!
How are you liking the pure silk? I (jonna) bought some to make a cumulus tee.
I did finish my ties! Some drama with the second one. I wanted to throw it across the room, but it’s all good now!
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna 😆I have a hard time imagining you getting upset. I like the silk a lot. Good stitch definition, and it makes a nicely uniform fabric. I am a bit nervous about it stretching after washing, so I think I'll just soak it, like with wool. We'll see. I'll tag you so you can see the photo I posted today.
It’s stunning! Now I want one, too.
Honestly, I wanted to cry, but I sucked it up and CO those 400+ stitches a second time! I twisted the CO, messed up the 2x2 rib and had some loose CO stitches. 🤣
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna I'm sure the finished product will be well worth it, and you will look lovely in it, but I would have not had the patience and would have just made button tabs. Of course, that would have killed the entire aesthetic!😆
Hi, I enjoyed the episode. I'd love to know how you made your raised garden beds. Happy knitting, and gardening.
Thank you. My son-in-law made them for me. Very easy and sturdy! My first ones fell apart. He found instructions online. Sorry I’m not more help!
I ordered the Mouche &Friends also it’s coming can’t wait so excited love watching you both❤
You’ll love it! Can’t wait to hear which you will make first.
Thank you for the podcast recommendation! I just discovered Therapy by craft. It is funny and relaxing 🤩
She’s great!
I’d like to recommend a couple of podcasts to you and my fellow subscribers… for mostly knitting 🧶 Little Big Knits podcast with the lovely and highly productive garment knitter Selma and 🧶 Le Petit Saint Crochet podcast with the delightful and prolific toy maker and designer Elise. If you haven’t watched these wonderful women already, I hope you do, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy their videos
Thank you!!
