Thanks for being here!
Liefs,
Sarah 🧶
I am grateful for your cleaning inspiration. It reminded me to just a small part every day and eventually the house feels better and my mind feels better.
Beautiful cardigan! I love the low contrast.
Absolutely love your new cardigan 🎉❤️🇦🇺
Absolutely amazing! You have an amazing talent
You were my inspiration for knitting socks❤
Sarah, I love your thoughts on process and product when it comes to cleaning. If we are fully present and mindful while we’re caring for our home and family, the product will be very satisfying indeed, and beneficial for everyone.
Thank you for this insight and your enjoyable podcasts.

I love your brown/black cardigan. The dark colours look so rich and like a tapestry. I am also enjoying your cleaning videos. I do find it motivating. I don’t always enjoy the process, but I do like a clean house and, like you, I enjoy my knitting so much more when the cleaning is done. I just need to adjust my mindset and learn to enjoy the process too. 🤎🤎🤎
Sarah, I love your brown and black cardigan. I would definitely have chosen brown and black for all the reasons you said, but also because brown and black together are a rich, deep combination. They are easy on the eyes, whereas, the cream and brown, because of the value contrast, would have been very busy in that pattern, being an allover colorwork sweater. I definitely like your cleaning video. It is inspiring. I am just like you, love a clean house and enjoy the product better than the process of cleaning. That is why I try to do all of my household tasks in the morning, I have the most energy then and I won't have to dread it while I am knitting or doing other crafting. It feels more efficient.
I love that you listen to yourself and went with the brown and black. Hopefully the straw yarn will give with washing and wearing!!! I love the high neckline…very fashionable!!! The zipper at the bottom is your unique touch. The scrappy socks are adorable!!! I love anything scrappy as it is always a one of a kind item!!! Stay safe and be blessed ❤
stunning cardigan..Love the color
You’re so cute- Miss Perfect, cuddling with sheep/straw and “knitting on the edge!!!” 😂😂😂
I would appreciate a segment explaining how you plan for and then make and use the facing strips. I’ve never seen that explained before. Thanks! 😊
Thanks, Sarah. Loving your journey. Looking forward to seeing the yarn you find to make Rebecca's new cardigan test. Enjoy the yarny event ❤
I love this idea of a Rabbit Wednesday, and also your household division of chores! Thank you for your insights. I look forward to your Monday En. videos. Thank you.
Yay! First comment! Love before watching. happy knitting. 💚🧶💚
Hi Sarah, In order to have less wavy zipper, it would be good to ease about 1cm (so the body will be 1cm longer than the zipper, sewn from edge to edge). It is also true when sewing.
anyhow, very nice work!!
Started knitting a few weeks ago, my first sock tube on the needles❤
I love your Otra cardigan, it's beautiful! And your cleaning videos are so fun to watch...and they motivate me to tackle little cleaning projects of my own. Thank you for your videos! 😊
I love that you listened to your little voice - the black and brown looks so good on you 😊
Thank you for the lovely video. Concerning the bubbly zipper: Maybe you could try blocking the sweater before you sew and cut the steek? I think that maybe the sewn steek plays into the fabric not laying flat? But anyways: The sweater is beautiful!
Thank you Sarah. The cardigan is beautiful. 🇬🇧
I’m so glad i found your channel😊 you and your content give me heart jumping moments 😊
Love your new cardigan and your slouchy socks. Super.💕💖🌸
Bravo with the cardigan with the zipper! I think it looks fabulous! I think the bubbling with the zipper could be from the zipper having zero stretch and the cardigan having lots of stretch…so when you sew the two together the cardigan may have stretched a bit, bubbling the zipper, could also be why the zipper ended up too short on the bottom. Oh the learning never ends with our wonderful craft when we push ourselves ❤️❤️❤️
I love your brown and black cardigan. What a perfect color combination. I was so excited after I saw your little knitted rabbit I went straight to my stash, bought the pattern and I’m going to make one for my grandson and one for each of our little nieces for this coming Christmas, we have 4 nieces so I have to make at least 5 of them … we will see. I have also been so motivated by your Christmas gift box with socks that I have been knitting socks again and I’m on a Quest to knit the perfect sock for myself this year. Thank you for always being such a great inspiration. I will take a look at your cleaning videos 😘💖
So SMART about the sock tubes! 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
Your cardigan is stunning and the colours are perfect!!
Your new cardigan looks very pretty! At first I also doubted if this colour combination is going to work, but I see now, that it does. I think this cardigan is like a modest person whose beauty you can see when you get to know her better (look it closer, I mean :)). I find your podcasts very fun and interesting to watch and I love your sence of humour. Have a lovely week and many handwerk perikelen! ❤
Great episode, Sarah. I love your new sweater. It looks great on you. In answer to your questions of what to call the dusting things: the long fuzzy wand with a handle is called a "duster". The cloth you use is called a "dust cloth". Thank you for the work you do on your youtube channels. 💕
I adore your cardigan! All the features I want for myself. ❤
I figured out how to join, had to go to phone not ipad. Love your podcast, my daughter who doesn’t do any knitting or crochet. Going to start a cal with my best friends daughter to make the Arianna cardigan.
Sarah love your videos so much. So happy to see you’re knitting a new rabbit. I knit a rabbit after seeing your blue rabbit. Have a great week
I really enjoy the low contrast colours. 😊 from your cardigan
I know you said you were okay with the gap at the base of the zipper but what you could do is get a set of hook and eyes and sew a pair at the bottom of your sweater. You can get them in black and sew to the inside, then when you hook them it will close up that bottom and be invisible. I did that with a sweater that called for widely spaced buttons. The wide spacing caused weird pulling and gaping and I didn't like it. So I put in several hook and eyes and it worked out wonderfully and no one knew they were there.
I love the low contrast!
You say ´set of 3´. Love your new cardigan.
Bonjour Sarah! Beautiful cardigan! Have very good week Sweet Sarah! A bientôt ! See you soon and take care!
Your sweater is beautiful! You could put a little hook and eye at the bottom of your sweater, if you want. Noro yarn also has little bits of things in it too.
Hi Sarah can you show how you put your granny cardigan together please ❤
I dont know what happened to me. I used to hate sewn bind off but now I love it and its the only one I use now!
身有同感！ 我也是在(部队) 大院长大，父母己去， 房子还在。弟弟弟妹前几天由港回京祭拜父母， 没有住在父母留下的房子，而是住在了酒店，他们说睹物思人，住家里心里太难受； 我在想我若回去还会住家里，但心里也会难过💔
❤❤

I would appreciate a link to Antonita’s “southern yarns” you mentioned. I love the brown and black, and it looks perfect on you!!
I feel exactly the same about round yoke designs, so you’re giving me good ideas.
You can find it in the shownotes!
Little cleaning cloth = a rag!!
À small piece of floth for cleaning could be a duster or a swab if you use locàl dialect in Shetland 😂
How do you join membership
Dust using a damp cloth because the dust doesn't fly into the air.
Hello Sarah
Dit is jou Suid Afrikaanse vriendin hier.
Ek gaan nie om verskoning vra vir my taal, want ek kry so min tyd om dit hier in Engeland te gebruik.
Ek geniet jou videos ontsettend baie.
Die "trui"wat jy in bruin en swart gebrei het is vir my een van die mooiste.
Jou gehekele blokkies truie trek aan my hart.
Ek is amper 73 en my avontuurlus word minder anders het ek vir my ʼn onderbaatjie gehekel.
Ek brei net kouse vir geskenke.
Ek geniet jou huis werk baie, maar ek kry skaam want ons Suid Afrikaners het altyd hulp, weet nie of dit ʼn seën is of dit net soveel erger is as jy na ʼn land kom waar jy alles moet doen.
Moet asseblief nie om verskoning vra vir jou Engel, dit is puik en meeste van die mense kan net een taal praat.
Groente van Cambridge UK.
