    How lovely to hear you talk about Andrew. I do remember the pennies well! I remember laughing a lot at that and thinking that is so Andrew to devise a system. I miss Andrew on the Fruity Knitting Couch. I think it's a nice way to keep him alive by sharing memories - although I see so much of him in Madeline it is like he is there with us anyway.

    I'm a relatively new viewer and have been watching back episodes, starting at the very beginning, in between your regular new episodes. Just now I'm going through the episodes where Andrew was knitting his first garment, a hiking sweater, and now it's wonderful to see these samples of his later knitting, such intricate lace! I'm so impressed at his progress! I love your podcast, it's the perfect mix of knitting and other chat to keep it interesting too 😄 Thank you for all you do!

    I didn't think I needed or wanted yet another sock book but it turns out that I do! (btw, those of us with high insteps, the widest part for us is the ellipse from the 'point' of the heel to where the top of the foot meets the leg. That's the size that the sock leg has to stretch to to get them on). Lovely episode, your summer tops are fabulous.

    Hi, Andrea and Madeleine. I love both of your sweaters. I can’t manage knitting a garment sideways so good on you both. Lace knitting is one of my favourites… thank you for sharing Andrew’s lace work❤ Madeleine modelled both sweaters beautifully. Ksenia Naidyon is a lovely designer. I enjoyed her interview.
    Andrea the wedding shawl is exquisite. Knitting socks is another one of my favourite things to knit. Charlotte’s colour work socks are gorgeous. Eye of partridge heel is my favourite to knit on my socks. I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. Enjoy your vacation❤️❤️

    So much fun and inspiration in this episode. Ksensia’s designs are so beautiful and the details she described about the meaning behind the patterns was lovely. I almost jumped out off my couch when I saw her walking into The Royal Bee Knitting Shop in Pacifica, CA. I live about 45 minutes away from there and visit the shop a few times a year. Kelly, the owner, is so warm and has created the most unique collection of yarn and accessories. The wedding shawl for Sofia is a work of love and art! It will be such a treat to see her wearing it. Have a wonderful time celebrating with her. Andrea, your comparison of sustaining a loving marriage/relationship is like tending a garden was really beautiful. It was very touching for you to mention this in terms of the precious time that you and Andrew had together. I still feel his presence strongly through you and Madeleine. This episode is one of many examples of why I’m so happy and willing to be a patron for many years now. The quality of your work is unparalleled and I truly appreciate every minute. Have a great time traveling and see you when you get back.

    Absolutely the best chat I could have watched today! I've been following Charlotte for years now and was so happy to see her release her book. 😄 I've done her Perfect Pansy socks and had the trouble with some floats in those (my own beginner mistake!), but still adore wearing them. Her Rad radish socks are currently on my needles and I bet that one was all the rage when released in the UK because who doesn't love gardens there. 😂 My next pair will have to be the pumpkins, because I've put them off far too long. Thank you so much for having her on and doing this lovely interview! ♥

And the wedding shawl is just gorgeous. I'd never seen the crochet bead option - absolutely need to give that a try. I'm so glad you showed off Andrew's beautiful lacework. What a treasure. ❤ I loved the coffee cup socks. This sockaholic may just be putting those on my todo list!

  • @FeannaFey
    @FeannaFey Рік тому +1

    "Workhorse" sock yarns (like Regia f.ex., but there are similar ones out there), can absolutely take being thrown in the wash on even a hot cycle with the regular washing. This is the reason why, as much as I love some other yarns, I prefer them for gift knitting, esp. for people who will not care/or forget (even if they do regret it immediately!) to wash them seperately. Not that I'd RECOMMEND washing them that way, but they absolutely do fine and this way no special care is absolutely required if somebody isn't able to do that.

  • @ellieduncan
    @ellieduncan Рік тому +1

    Thank you for a lovely episode. I just need to mention that in stranded colourwork the critical point about yarn dominance is that the motif yarn is stranded under the background yarn and therefore has a longer float which makes the motif colour pop. Madeleine is incorrect to say that the background yarn is held in the left hard for two handed colourwork knitting. For an English style knitter the left hand usually carries the motif yarn but it's the way the yarn is floated that is more important.

    Appreciate you two as much as I miss Andrew.
    I think at about 53:00 you meant motif color in left hand, not right hand, and background color in right hand. Whichever color you want to dominate, you put it closer to the direction you are knitting in, so that it travels under the background strand, so that it travels longer and makes larger stitches.

Anyway to include these destinations in an established segment (especially Extreme Knitting or Knitters of the World) would be wonderful. Thank you for reading this suggestion.

    Andrew and I share a love of lace, the one style of knitting that is difficult for men to wear. I'm an engineer and I love the geometric designs that can be formed from yarnovers. Fortunately there is no shortage of women who are happy to receive knitted lace scarves and shawls.
