I absolutely adore the sweet baby sweater. Its so cute. Congratulations on you little one still snuggled in his developing unit. 😊 I love watching your extatic enthusiasm for your pregnancy. What a blessing. Very refreshing to see in our present world. May the Lord bless you, Mommy, daddy and baby.
Thank you very much! Yes, I am very excited. I always wanted to be a mom. That has always been my biggest goal. I know I won't sleep much and it will be hard work but I am looking forward to it very much! Just recently I saw on the Matt Walsh show what people write in a Sub-reddit about regretting becoming parents. It broke my heart. These poor kids.
Wow, your baby blanket is gorgeous! A true labor of love! The socks for your midwife are also beautiful! You are so thoughtful and kind. Your guest slippers are also beautiful and such a nice welcoming gesture for your guests. The striped baby sweater and pants are so adorable! Your son will look so cute and cozy in them! Your Christmas is July sock is very beautiful and reminds me of Christmas sweets and colorful tree ornaments. The sock for your husband is also really beautiful! As a twin who was born on our uncle’s birthday, I’ve always enjoyed sharing our birthdays. Your granny stitch shawl looks beautiful and comforting.
Hi Anna, it is good to see you! Inlove the baby sweater and pants! They are so cute! Love the socks and slippers too! I love to crochet at night too. It helps when I am tired but still want to knit or crochet.
“But that’s not how I roll” 😂😂😂 I have never heard you say that before! 😂🤣 I get frustrated with my knit dishcloths, or baby blankets, because they shrink more in length than in width.I wish I knew how much MORE they would shrink so I could accommodate that with knitting a bit longer. Your baby blanket is so beautiful!
Now I had to double check if I understand the saying correctly. 😅 I do. What a relief. But my husband explained me that the origins are more from street life? Is that true? When it comes to sewing fabric I think cotton shrinks usually about 30%. And it always shrinks they way it stretches I think. But ifknitted fabric stretches in all directions. So I have no idea if we can know in advance how it shrinks.
@@annaknitter Oh yes, you are correct in how you used the phrase. In the US, many young people say it. I would consider it a slang expression. I just didn’t expect to hear it from you, as you are more of a proper English speaker. And it was quite cute how you slipped it in there!
We use the word gosling for a baby goose and duckling for a baby duck. I'm sure there are probably others. I just started watching Gilmore Girls for the first time. It’s quite good- no violence. My husband even gets a kick out of the humour.
Glove box is another name for glove compartment. Many times when we see a cute puppy (young dog), we will call it a doggie to express how little it is. Love your baby blanket! What a wonderful keepsake it will be. Blessings!
Thank you! I am always amazed when people think about my podcast the way I think about others podcasts. When I see a new episode of my favorite hosts I am so happy!
Have you ever watched a crime show called Monk? He is a detective who has certain peculiarities like germaphobia and OCD but notices everything so he solves the most difficult cases. It is very funny.
@@barbpassalacqua3257 oh yes, I have watched single episodes in the past. That’s a great reminder. I am sure it would be fun to watch it from start to beginning. Thanks 🙏🏻
When I use Sugar n Cream, I get 2 coordinating colors (like variegated and solid) and I can make 3 cloths from those 2 balls, 1 of each color and 1 striped or half and half. When I make a corner to corner cloth, I increase to 49 stitches, so a little bigger than what you are making. Just so you know, their solid colors have more yarn in the ball than the variegated. It’s a decent yarn, but I have found that the colors fade quicker than some others with multiple washes. Your baby knits are adorable!
Love the channel! Quick tip for smelly dishcloths: after using, rinse it, squeeze out most of the water, then toss it in the microwave for one minute. That will kill the bacteria that causes the smell. I do this with kitchen sponges as well (however, I have mostly given up sponges ).
@@KarlaGustafson-vq1ch Are you doing that after ever use or by the end for the day? I use sponges for washing the dishes but dishies for lightly used dishes, the counter tops, the stove, cupboards etc.
@@annaknitter Hi - I usually do it at the end of the day. I still occasionally put the dishcloths through the wash - but on a daily basis I put dishcloths I've used and sponges I've used in the microwave (wet) for 1 minute.
Hi from Beausejour Canada. I’m knitting through my sock stash this summer and a scrappy blanket. Great job on your blanket. Have you watched father brown and miss marple based on Agatha Christie books. Cozy crimes. Plus there is home fires which has amazing knitwear based in the 40’s
@@christinefunk3591 My husband and I are reading Father Brown currently. We could watch it when we are though the stories. Thank you. Yes, I have watched Miss Marple several times and I watched them once with Tommy. My Mom watched the movies with us when I was little. The entrance melody is her ring tone. 😂
I find Sugar and Cream Cotton yarn has a bad odor after one day. I think it could be the color in the yarn. My knitting friends have said the same. Have you found the same.
In English words ending in -y or -ies or -sy often make another word diminuative. Such as ducky, kitties, footsy. And as for police, “cop” can go either way. It is more polite to use police or officer, but a “cop show” is very acceptable. I love all your excitement to knit baby things! I wish I were in the same country, it would be fun to have a knit group together. We’ll have to settle for podcasts and Telegram, I guess. Continued prayers for a healthy baby!
I love detectives. "My life is murder" - "Blue Bloods" - "White collar" - "Frankie Drake mysteries" - "Murdoch Mysteries" - "Dalgliesh" - "Sister Boniface Mysteries" - "Father Brown" - "Grandchester" - Ms Fisher's Modern Murder Mysteries" - "The Madame Blanc" - "The Sandhamm Murders" Mysteries" - " Inspector George Gently" - "Inspector Morse" - "Lewis" - and a lot more 😂.
White Collar is a great show! And I can watch it with people who don't want to watch murder crime shows. The stories of Father Brown is the book my hubby and I read at the moment. 😃 The other shows you mentioned I will check out. Thanks a lot!
Hosematz, I looked it up: "scherzhafter Ausdruck für ein kleines Kind, das Latzhosen trägt", so "humorous expression for a small child wearing dungarees/lederhosen"
@@FrauGothi I have found different information as well. Matz seems to come from Mätzchen (Mätzchen machen, Unfug machen). And Matt seems to derive from the name Matthew. So it’s a boy who is making silly nonsense quite ofteny
That tiny sweater is so cute!!

The navy/ grey sweater is very cute and very small. Love it. I must say those are definitely Christmas socks!
Yay, so you can see it too!
What a wonderful podcast Anna!! I love your stripy flax jumper! It is so cute!! Thank you!
Anna you look so pretty, I’m happy you are feeling better love the baby blanket.
Thank you so very much!

Oh yes the Gilmore Girls! I watched that show multiple times. I liked it as a teenager on TV and still like it on DVD. 😉
Yes, glove compartment! Many years ago, people always wore driving gloves in the car. So they could store them in the glove compartment or glove box.
Glove box is another name for glove compartment. Many times when we see a cute puppy (young dog), we will call it a doggie to express how little it is. Love your baby blanket! What a wonderful keepsake it will be. Blessings!

I hadn‘t thought of that! I pour the remaining boiling water from my evening tea over my dishcloths and put them in the wash every week or so.
Yes we call it glove compartment
Have you tried rinsing your dishies in cold water after you use it? That keeps it fresh, loving the baby knits, they are so precious.
@@judymccarty2695 yes, I always rinse my dishies (store bought and handmade). Thank you ☺️
A young deer is a yearling . There is a great old movie with Gregory Peck called, The Yearling. Love all your knits😊
The Closer is a great show. It's like Rizzoli and Isles. Not dark.
@@sandraseiger3417 great timing. I am already in the last season and was thinking what to watch next.
That sweater is so….cute ❤️

Try Gilmore Girls. It is great. This show is a theme for a lot of USA yarn dyers. It is a clean show with 154 episodes.
@@sandraseiger3417 I watched it as a Teen already and have them all on DVD. I think I watched the whole series four or five times. 😊
We have handschoen in Holland :). And there is in English a duckling thats also a “ling” 😊
I use sugar and cream all the time, works great and no stink !!!
Great! So far I can agree. I am using it for nearly 24 hours and I really like it!
❤
I find Sugar and Cream Cotton yarn has a bad odor after one day. I think it could be the color in the yarn. My knitting friends have said the same. Have you found the same.
So far evrything smells good. But we will see how it performs after a few days and the first wash.

Oh yes, I would love to have likeminded knitting friends in my area. It must be so wonderful!
Oh can make a scrappy dishcloth with left overs
I love detectives. "My life is murder" - "Blue Bloods" - "White collar" - "Frankie Drake mysteries" - "Murdoch Mysteries" - "Dalgliesh" - "Sister Boniface Mysteries" - "Father Brown" - "Grandchester" - Ms Fisher's Modern Murder Mysteries" - "The Madame Blanc" - "The Sandhamm Murders" Mysteries" - " Inspector George Gently" - "Inspector Morse" - "Lewis" - and a lot more 😂.
White Collar is a great show! And I can watch it with people who don't want to watch murder crime shows. The stories of Father Brown is the book my hubby and I read at the moment. 😃 The other shows you mentioned I will check out. Thanks a lot!
@@annaknitter Glad I could give you some suggestions. Enjoy your pregnancy. May God bless you and your little child.
My twin sister and i were born 1 day bofore our dads birthday. 😂
I always Heard dawn soap made them smell
Is dawn soap a brand? I always use the same dishwashing liquid from the same company. So that doesn't seem to be the problem with my smelly dishies.
This pattern is extra wide and not too deep granny shawl - ua-cam.com/video/Lujb174RUGY/v-deo.htmlsi=VHcoeKzGvVWrs7I8
Do you watch “Ruth loves to knit”? Or “Knitting Traditions”?
