I recently found your lovely podcast and I decided to watch them chronologically. But now I just have to leave a comment, because my heart skipped a beat when I heard about Estonia. Because I am from Estonia! Our small country doesn't get much publicity so it is so nice to hear it mentioned. When I heard the cranes before Estonia was mentioned, I instantly felt that something feels so familiar and like at home in this sound. Because we have cranes nesting 500 m from our house and their beautiful calls always marks the beginning of spring for us. That proves how unconcious we are about sounds that surround us and actually influence us so much. Thank you for making this wonderful podcast and I am so happy that I have so many episodes to watch :)
What a great interview with Felicity Ford. She is such a source of inspiration, so original, positive, and humble. The song at the end was hilarious! It wrapped up yet another fantastic episode. I am watching all the episodes once again. There is a bittersweet feeling in my heart as i knit, each stitch a thought for Andrew and Andrea and Madeleine.
What a fantastic episode. I lived in North Yorkshire for 14 years before moving to New Mexico, USA. As a photographer I loved the farmers and lambingtime. So many lamb shots. I knew many of the sounds as I spent many hours with my camera in lambing sheds. Then the Filati book, way before I had a wool shop in Belgium, sadly enough went bankrupt. My wool was Valentino, Missoni and Filatura de c(r?) osa. Beautiful wool. Your archive piece took me straight back to my knitting days in Belgium. So glad I found your podcasts. Doing them all! Thank you for bringing back lovely memories.
Most amazing interview with such a lovely creative person. I just loved how she connected to the world and I loved that song at the end. It was so warming hearing the community connection of ladies laughing together. I was touched.
Oh that interview was unbelievable :-) Just recently I have been thinking about how there is a lot of pressure to "think outside the box", "bring something new", "be extraordinary" in the creative process.....and then I can see so many kind of purposeless endeavors to make smt new, just in order to make smt new. And it does not work very well (not everyone should or wants to be a pioneer) and it is best seen in cases like this, when the "something new" or "outside the bow" just organically happens and is pursued with a sense of purpose, sustainability and love for beauty - and it shows so obviously. Thanks! I love watching you two and loved KNITSONIC today!
loved the interview with Felicity of Knitsonik, the song at the end was awesome. Once again thanks for bringing a fantastic podcast, i've been working through back episodes a little at a time and i'm never disappointed.
So glad to have found you! A little late to the party, but I am enjoying it nonetheless!! I am binge-watching the old ones starting from the first episode. Don't want to miss any! This was a very fun episode though. Now remaining.. Episode 13-99! Have a lot to catch-up, (bar a few from between I have randomly watched) :D. Great podcast
The interview with Felicity was good for the soul. I really liked Andrew‘s questions to Andrea in the Under Construction Segment, they were totally the things that I would like to have asked.
I’m a bit late in coming to your podcast, but started from the beginning per a recommendation I had and am thoroughly enjoying every single bit of each segment of every podcast. From the scenery, to the music, to your lovely relationship with each other, your wisdom and instruction when it comes to knitting and all the fun bits with interviews and Knitters of the World. The ending of this one reminded me of myself and my long time girlfriends sitting around a table playing Dominos or crafting! So much fun!
I have been watching your episodes as they come out for about a year but am now going back to see the early ones. I loved meeting Felicity Ford in this episode. I have hear her on Cast On podcast by Brenda Dayne in the past but have never seen her. She is full of inspiration and fun. The song was wonderful and I am pretty sure I heard Brenda Dayne’s voice in the group of friends!
Your Fair Isle sweaters so inspire me! I have only done a simple hat, but will try a sweater some day. Thank you for the interesting and wonderfully produced podcasts. I am definitely a fan!
As ALWAYS! another outstanding episode :) Thank you so much for another entertaining, informative, educational podcast. It was GREAT!!!!! - Inspirational and charming.
Each time I watch an episode, I'm impressed at an even deeper level with what a quality podcast you guys are producing. It feels like we have a ringside seat at what's happening at the creative edge of the knitting world. Thank you so much! I loved Felicity's remark about the quality women; you two are the quality podcasters.
Wonderful interview with Felicity Ford thank you. I love your podcasts and only came across you a couple of months ago. A fabulous bit of recorded knitting history for future generations. Thank you guys :)
I've just finished binge- watching all of the episodes, and am eagerly waiting for the next one. I am so enjoying the both of you. I take away something new with every episode. Thank you!
Superb interview.... thank you Knitsonic and Andrea. Thanks also for giving us a listen to some of the sound recordings Interestingly the big dog noises freaked out my house bunny 🐰.... kudos for the editing
Just truly love watching you two, cutest couple on UA-cam. Usually at home knitting while I watch but work today is so slow you are my daytime delight. Andrea, I will definitely post my progress on the opera gloves when I receive my Rowan yarn. Cheers you two!!
This podcast made me laugh so much. I love Felicity and the story of how she came to knitting and then went on to combine her work with sound with knitting/wool is just fantastic. Her work is amazing and I plan to get her book. The snippet an the end is what had me laughing. I was watching the podcast while I made "breakfast cookies"; which are actually very healthy cookies and full of great ingredients including raisins. I was making the messy dough into patties as Felicity was singing about raisins. I feel inspired to take lots of photos next time I visit home, the West of Ireland, so I can work on colour work patterns that capture the scenery I love and miss. Thank you for the variety and quality you provide in you podcast. I know it must take a lot of time and effort.
Thank you for watching and your great feedback. We just got back from Edinburgh Yarn Festival where we had the pleasure of (very briefly) meeting Felicity in person. We are both big fans of hers - sure you will enjoy her book, and it's also fun to follow her on Instagram. Keep watching! A + A.
I was lucky to be one of her audience at the Edinburgh Yarn Festival evening party last year.Her book is amazing! After I finished my first baable hat , I am so keen to knit more fair isle hats/beanies just to play with colours 😊
Hi Virginia, Andrew here. I know I am spoilt. Having a Fair Isle garment will be new for me, but I am confident that it will be good. Andrea has a good eye for colours, and takes a lot of care with the fit, so it's a pretty safe bet really.
Absolutely loved your interview with Felicity Ford, what an interesting personality and so passionate about her chosen interests. Nearly up to date with all your fabulous podcasts. The mix of content is just perfect for me, knitting, spinning, classical music, opera and Germany etc., etc. Very balanced presentation from you both and fascinating watching Andrews growth from beginning knitter to the present, a case study in it's self. I have also suffered from RSI around the elbow region and it threatens to reappear at times. Thanks for all your efforts. Jenny
Felicity's stories were very, very interesting. Thank you for this part of your podcast. I'm looking forward to getting her book. Your special guests and knitters of the world are thoroughly enjoyable. I've watched many knitting podcasts and your has to be the most interesting. Andrea, you are an amazing knitter. Andrew, your a neat guy.
I eagerly look forward to each of your episodes because I know it will be full of wonderful knitting, great interviews, the Knitters of the World and some lovely music, and this episode did not disappoint. I really enjoyed the interview with Felicity Ford - I have heard her mentioned numerous times by Kate Davies. Your projects are both very impressive, too. Finally, I love hearing you speak to each other and savouring those Antipodean words and expressions, which I don't hear often enough here (despite the fact I am a Kiwi)...
Margaret - thanks for your feedback. Interesting that you mention the Antipodean expressions. We were just discussing the use of "ridgy-didge" last night... I thought we might need English captioning.
I probably say the same thing about each episode of your podcast lol. I enjoy them all so very much. I look forward to each and wonder what new thing you will show me today. Your knitting is amazing to me and Andrew's work is looking so beautiful as well. I love seeing all the interesting people around the world who are knitters. It is so nice to see what else is out there beyond my little world. It is just so enjoyable!! Thank you both so much. I know it is a lot of work to put it all together :) Have a wonderful day!!.....sharon xx
I so love your podcasts....I am addicted really and moving along nicely on my easy vest project while watching!Andrew, love your comment, "2 ply Love"❤️Andrea, thanks for so much inspiration !
English ist not my original language. I am going through all your podcasts since a few weeks from number one onwards. I startet weeks ago with one of the newer episodes with Asa Tricosa. The book ist bought and a project startet. Your tips and interviews are very interesting and I like the whole thing. I also have dogs, two Airedale, sometimes very fashionable after trimming. You know. Because in some way you also are funny as a couple, it is really much more better than TV watching you. And thanks a lot, I am just planning to to one or two of the marin wallins I had never found without you even I am a lot looking at ravelry. Thanks a lot. Stay healthy, you and your daughter and your dog!!
Each time I watch one of your podcasts, I marvel at how much information you impart and how absolutely delightful you are together as a couple and as a family. I found your podcasts only recently so am still trying to catch up. I just watched Episode 12 and in it Jeni Reid is wearing a gray and blue cardigan sweater at the end of the series while she is sitting overlooking the ocean. I could not find this pattern on her web site. Is there any way to find out more about this lovely sweater? Also, is it possible to become a patron by paying once instead of in monthly installments? Thank you so much for your excellent podcasts and inspiring knitting.
It's always so fascinating to hear what Felix has to say. I never heared the story about how she got into knitting herself, and somehow it felt very empowering that somebody who didn't know that much about wool and knitting is now this massive source of inspiration. Thanks for the great interview!
Best yet, what a great interview with Felicity Ford - I thoroughly enjoyed it! I heard some mention of the purl rows on the Knitting Pipeline audio podcast at the beginning of the summer. Paula called it 'rowing out' and there was a suggested solution. Something to with the angle at which the needle enters?
Hi Claire, Andrew here. I will chase that up on Knitting Pipeline. I have only listened to a few episodes (one went into the difference between ... Slip Slip Knit and something else ... very heated debate). Paula is charming, and I must mention that I learnt bagpipes for a (very) short period of time, and Andrea used to play the side drum in a pipe band. When we retire we will be our very own pipe band. (-;
what a treasure you found and shared! curious if the drive to have fo's for bring n brag has had an impact on your "typical" knitting output? episode 12 - you are really hitting your stride with the podcasts, congrats!
It isn’t every day someone explains, in depth, their ‘thing’, where their pure joy at what it’s all about GeNuInElY comes out in profundity ... but not forced, and not self/object-deprecating. This woman truly adores her life and obcession. An equal joy to watch. I immediately posted this to a photo album of harmonics I have on Facebook for any / all who appreciate sound as music in a far-flung way. Even if they don’t like the track, they’ll enjoy the description. What a treat!
To combat the tension issue between knitting and purling you can try using a smaller needle on the side when you are purling and the regular needle on your knitting side.
Hi - Andrew here. I've actually stuck it out and my tension is pretty good now. Someone suggested using a different needle for the purl row, but I was never really keen on the idea. I figured it was better to work on the technique, otherwise I'd be stuck with this problem... Cheers, Andrew.
The interview was amazing, but most funny was the last, the last song, without rhyming "Strawberry". Now there is a very sad strawberry in my garden All the other funny guys that rhyme with strawberry like raspberry, boysenberry, blueberry, were out for a walk and ended up in a jam. Now the strawberry was in a funk, was feeling blue, (which is a very bad stage for a strawberry, believe me!) because nobody loved it enough to rhyme with it. Along came Jerry, Harry and Larry, And kindly agreed to rhyme with strawberry. Now the strawberry was happy, and rhymed happily ever after with Jerry, Harry and Larry.
Andrew, you might want to try Portuguese knitting to even out your purl stitches. This technique has helped some. What an interesting program you both have put together, thank you! Louise
Hi Louise, Andrew here. A few people have suggested the Portuguese knitting for its great purling performance. I will look into it, but it will have to wait for a bit. Thank you for watching, and for your advice.
you are so wonderful! I'm from Belarus and it's hard for me to listen to you because of ignorance of the language, do the subtitles for people like me. your podcasts very interesting Russian people.
You are so unlucky to only get about 2 weeks of summer where you are. As an ex-army brat and wife we spent a lot of time in west Germany and had some lovely long summer months.
Hi Pat. Andrea had mentioned that she was going to quiz me, and I had seen some of the numbers, so it wasn't entirely spontaneous.

What an amazing interview with knit sonic - I’d love to see more of her.
Fabulous interview with Felicity. Has given me a lot of food for thought.

Loved the 2-part interview. Very interesting and funny. Working my way to the present. So glad I found you both!
Que bom, estava ansiosa pelo novo episódio. Cada vez melhor!! Falo do sul do Brasil, próximo a Florianópolis, Santa Catarina.
My favorite so far, starting from your beginnings. Every single moment filled with delight!
Enjoyed Felicity Ford's interview. Her book is very inspirational.
Valerie Smith
Superb interview.... thank you Knitsonic and Andrea. Thanks also for giving us a listen to some of the sound recordings

OMG!!! Just that piece is MIND BLOWING!!! You do such BEAUTIFUL work and you r so talented and he should be SO PROUD to wear t...
Hi Virginia, Andrew here. I know I am spoilt. Having a Fair Isle garment will be new for me, but I am confident that it will be good. Andrea has a good eye for colours, and takes a lot of care with the fit, so it's a pretty safe bet really.

Delightful introduction song by Felicity!
I know this episode was a long time ago but the song by knitsonik is the best thing ever!!
Number 27 pullover is brilliant and the color is fantastic 👏👏👏👍 The fit is amazing! I'm impressed loads!

Andrew your maths is accurate and fast!! Very impressed :-)
Yes...
It's always so fascinating to hear what Felix has to say. I never heared the story about how she got into knitting herself, and somehow it felt very empowering that somebody who didn't know that much about wool and knitting is now this massive source of inspiration. Thanks for the great interview!

Fruity Knitting sounds great!
The interview was amazing, but most funny was the last, the last song, without rhyming "Strawberry".
Now there is a very sad strawberry
in my garden
All the other funny guys that rhyme
with strawberry
like raspberry,
boysenberry,
blueberry,
were out for a walk and ended up in a jam.
Now the strawberry
was in a funk,
was feeling blue,
(which is a very bad stage for a strawberry, believe me!)
because nobody loved it enough to rhyme with it.
Along came Jerry, Harry and Larry,
And kindly agreed to rhyme
with strawberry.
Now the strawberry was happy, and rhymed happily ever after with Jerry, Harry and Larry.
Thank you!
Brilliant, and especially the fruitcake story
Felicity is to love like a gelato store in Italy
what kind of yarn did u use for the Firebird sweater?
I have a question to ask Fruity Knitting but it is private and personal on my side. How can I get in contact with you?
Hi Alex. We're fruityknitting on Ravelry, if that works for you?
Andrew, you might want to try Portuguese knitting to even out your purl stitches. This technique has helped some.
What an interesting program you both have put together, thank you!
Louise
Hi Louise, Andrew here. A few people have suggested the Portuguese knitting for its great purling performance. I will look into it, but it will have to wait for a bit. Thank you for watching, and for your advice.
you are so wonderful! I'm from Belarus and it's hard for me to listen to you because of ignorance of the language, do the subtitles for people like me. your podcasts very interesting Russian people.
Are you caravan campers? (Andrew's T) that could be some extreme knitting.
F.F. Is a genius...
You are so unlucky to only get about 2 weeks of summer where you are. As an ex-army brat and wife we spent a lot of time in west Germany and had some lovely long summer months.
He must be a math wizard! Wow...what does Andrew do for his job?
Hi Pat. Andrea had mentioned that she was going to quiz me, and I had seen some of the numbers, so it wasn't entirely spontaneous. But I do try to do mental arithmetic and avoid the calculator (and I encourage our daughter Madeleine to as well). My dad was very keen on maths - tutored at Melbourne University in his retirement, and taught a class at the University of the Third Age (not sure whether you know that organisation, more European and also in Australia). I work with telephone numbers at the moment, which is not quite maths...
