    Oh girl, no one thinks you’re slacking. We’re just happy to get an episode whenever you and Madeline can manage one. Take the time you need, take care of yourselves and don’t worry about anything else.

      The content is so exciting. Whatever it takes to produce is fine. We all will be
      Anticipating the next episode . I lost my husband 8 years ago and things for me
      Remain the same. We had a custom tailor shop and I will never be able to recreate it myself . The joy of creating custom things remains but that sharing is not there. Somehow I know he is with me Does it get better no it doesn't . I hope
      Your work is enough --we are praying
      For you.

    As someone who sees many knitting podcasts, I have come to prefer quality over quantity :) I'm sure others feel the same way too. So please don't feel bad about the time it takes to produce a good show...

    Andrea, I have watched several podcasts you have made since Andrew death and was so sad about his death that I found I couldn’t comment without going to pieces. I felt I had lost another friend. The last year and half I have lost several of my long terms friends to COVID or cancer and Andrew seem like just one more. I have followed you and Andrew for about three years and couldn’t wait for the next podcast. I love what you do. I admire your courage and to have a lovely daughter like Madeleine, who I might also say is very brave, helping you with a job by your own description very hard , is so wonderful. You are so blessed and I know Andrew would be so proud of you both as I know that all of your Patrons are as well. The part of this episode with your sister was really good. As a retired art teacher, I really enjoyed this piece. You take your time as you grieve for your loved one and I for one will not mind waiting for the 115 episode. Sending love and prayers to you both, Ann from Va. USA 🇺🇸

    This episode has been so inspiring in many ways. First and foremost is your and Madeleine’s tenacity and resilience. Please don’t trouble yourself with how long it will take for the next episode. As a previous comment stated: quality over quantity is much more important. Those of us who are Patrons and other loyal followers respect and understand that you are living through a very tough time and we will happily receive your next episode whenever you are ready. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting your sister(strong resemblance) and hearing about her teaching. Her students are so lucky to learn from her. Loved the peak into your visit with Sofia. Suraya and her jewelry are spectacular. Her approach to her craft and life in general are so thoughtful and uplifting. The two cherries on top at the end are precious and definitely living their best life! Sending best wishes to both of you for strength and healing.

    As many others have said, quality not quantity is what I prefer. You always have released a quality podcast, which I feel I can watch several times and still learn something new. Anticipation is half the pleasure too. Take care of yourselves and keep well. Good luck with the dissertation Madelaine!

    I just loved watching your two nieces knitting so intently. And the footage right at the end with the two girls looking back to the person filming with the beautiful Pink and grey hues in the background would make the most gorgeous photo. Thank you Andrea and Madeline for all your hard work producing all these Fruity Knitting episodes. You open up new worlds of creative possibilities with all the wonderful interviews you do.

    Wow! Way to go with the beautiful mittens Madeleine! Amazing! I actually said that out loud while watching the episode! They're gorgeous! I love everything you two do and I'm happy with anything you'd like to bring us. I especially love you sharing your family members Andrea! Those little nieces steal the show every time, they're just adorable! Loved your sister's segment! And the beautiful yoke of the bohus stickning. The knitted wire necklace! You're both amazing to me. I am grateful for you sharing your talents. It is so inspiring. I really like it when you share the challenges (like knitting the first mitten a bit tight at first), because it makes me feel more normal! I care about you like I would my own family members. You bring more than just lessons about knitting. You share beautiful sentiments about life and it has been very helpful to me. Thank you for being you!! And yes, you bring much joy into my life!!

    I loved your sister’s section about choosing color. It is one of the hardest parts of my knitting. It was very easy for me to understand ( I have some sort of mental block about combining colors). I hope she will be back again with more helpful info. I hope you are doing ok Andrea. I lost my husband of 50 years last year and know that it took months to come out of the fog of grief. I love your videos and miss Andrew’s beautiful smile.

    As usual, amazing show. The wire necklace kit was super interesting to see a “novice” knitter make so I would know what to expect when I try it. Your WIP are all stunning. The Bohus looks slightly unfocused in the video when everything else is sharp focus, so it is easy to see the impressionistic look that is achieved. It is magical. Your sister is as impressive as an artist as you are! Wish I could take a class from her, her students are very lucky. The entire show is professional, interesting and so entertaining and inspirational. I hope you both can continue with these shows, they continue to be a critical part of my knitting and spiritual life. Thanks!

    Hi Andrea. This episode stayed on my mine and I decided to make a comment for the first time. I discovered your channel shortly after Andrew made the announcement about his illness. Losing a loved one hurts. I've lost all of my family members, and after each lost, the cycle of grief started all over. Time and friends always helped me to go to the next stage. Give yourself time. You are blessed to have your daughter and a community who cares. I only know you through the Internet, but I wanted you to know that I care about you.

    Thank you for another interesting & engaging episode you two! The main interview on wire knitting was so interesting & Suraya's work is beautiful! Congratulations on both the mittens & the necklace Madeline. They are beautiful, & both they & your bag project colors all coordinated wonderfully with that gorgeous dress you were wearing! Andrea - that Wild Apple - Stunning! I thought that the Kim Hargreaves sweater yarn color looked really pretty over your Romi Hill sweater color. Both are Devonia yarns I think... & a lovely color combo. Quite normal to be where you're at in the grief process Andrea. Good for you to take care of yourself by visiting Sofia. Thank you as well for your sister's piece on the creative process. That was very informative & helpful. Quite the talented family!

I can feel Andrew's presence during video wich is very emotional for me and I belive he is watching over both of you from the other side. Love and hugs.

    Hi folks. I so enjoyed seeing the progress on your BOHUS piece! Inspired by your podcast on that beautiful tradition, I FINALLY bought my own kit and am loving it. I too, like the little rolled neckline that came from the no ribbing choice and am definitely going to leave it.
    I am now into the body and was interested in your wishing you had a knitting machine. As someone who used to own THREE but never uses them anymore, I can say the following. What we love about hand knitting-that it is portable, quiet, and meditative-is what you lose with a machine. It is NONE of these. I can also say that while hand knitters happily (well, not exactly happily, maybe I exaggerate a little?) rip out hours of knitting when they recognize a mistake, a machine knitter (and perhaps I speak only for myself), will use the language of a sailor and want to throw everything out the window having discovered a mistake of only 10 minutes earlier.
    Looking forward to seeing your finished piece. And yes, it looks lovely on your daughter too!!!

    Absolutely fabulous content__Madelaine's mittens and necklace(and her modelling, of course), Andrea's 'apples' yoke and pink wrap sweater, Michaela's techniques for inspiring color choices, and lovely Suraya sharing her craft(I NEED to try that skirt and top design, I love 'sparkle'), gotta get a kit! Also, those little 'Munchkins' at the end__adorable!
    It's gonna be hard not to expect a podcast for Sept., but we love your present level of content and production so, you have a great trip to the UK and come back refreshed and 'inspired' to continue with your newly acquired skills.
    Madelaine, good luck on your dissertation!

I wait eagerly for each podcast, but that's only because they are so good. I completely agree with the previous comment about quality over quantity. Take the time you need to get it right. But even so... short little vlog-casts from Madeline will definitely ease the pain of a long wait. Have a good trip! Beautiful mittens Madeline. They look perfect with your blue coat. Andrea, I can't wait to see the finished sweaters. That yolk is FABULOUS!

    Dear Andrea,
    This has been another amazing episode filled with new knitting and crochet ideas. With Stephen West's new KAL coming up, your sister's explanation on using the color wheel to decide on colors was very helpful. Yours and Madelene's finished objects are beautiful. I love watching her attempt new things. The knitting with wire segment was very intriguing. It was also great to see you taking some time to wind down in a peaceful place.
    As you seek to continue bringing quality podcasts, remember that YOU are our greatest concern. I know that Andrew would be very proud of the baby steps toward regaining your stride. Our prayers are with you always. Pace yourself.

You have my admiration for keeping a steady hand on the wheel under those circumstances.( I avoided the autobahn at all costs)

    I think those Shine mittens look great too especially with your coat. Very chic! I love that photo of the yoke...looks like a bowl of fruit. How I wish I could take a class with Michaela...so organized and clear in her instructions and intention for her students. She's got me thinking more clearly about using colour as well. Bouncy feeling yarn bouncing right out of your hands had me giggling. Andrea, slacking is NEVER a word that I would think of in connection with you! I so admire your doing all this work so soon, and Madeleine as well. Take your time. For me the anticipation is part of the joy. Beautiful dreamer indeed, so lovely. A delightful interview with Mahliqua. Thank you so much for this lovely episode. HUgs

    Thank you so much for another wonderful episode. Your podcast is the only one I watch religiously. I've even been working my way through all the previous episodes and learned so much! My best wishes that you can find the strength and courage to keep producing such a high quality podcast. Quality takes time, so please don't feel we'll think you're slacking if episodes are rarer.

    So happy to see you both! Madeline: love your shirt! And your coat and mittens are absolutely stunning! Andrea: that Bohus yoke! It's gorgeous...I have tried Bohus but didn't have the patience for the multiple colors per row and the fine gauge, so I greatly admire your work so much! The entire episode is excellent and, as others have stated, I have no problem waiting a bit longer between episodes and always appreciate everything you do!

    Thank you for a brilliant episode loved every minute. Seeing your nieces knitting made me so happy, I can not wait until my grand daughter is old enough to teach ( she has just turned 1). I taught my daughter and she still knits now so it will be great for the 3 of us to night together. I am not currently a patron as money does not allow me to be at the moment, but I will be as soon as I can. Thank you once again and I hope things get a little easier for you in time.

    What a lovely episode!!! Always a joy to watch and I’m so appreciative of the fantastic work you do, 100% the best knitting show there is! I would hardly ever think that you were slacking in any way! I know Andrew would be so proud of you and Madeleine❤️. Loved both of your projects and the interviews of the knitted/crocheted jewelry and design/color inspiration with your sister!!! It was so much fun to see the video footage of the two adorable littles at the end! Was she actually knitting on that sweater? I’m so impressed if she was! Thank you again and take all the time you need ❤️

I think you are doing incredibly well given the circumstances. I think most viewers are happy with all epidsodes you can manage. Your well-being is more important than any wait time between episodes.

    Fruity Knitting is far and away the gold standard so I know I’m not the only one who respects how ever long it takes. I have found as my knitting has evolved during the Pandemic to go back and rewatch episodes as they may have more relevance for me now. As for this episode - Michaela did a fabulous job! It’s obvious you are sisters - in looks and creativity!

    Hello from Mounds Illinois. I feel your pain I lost my husband after thirty five years of marriage and it still hurts. I have to get used to being by myself and it's not easy as my children are all far away in the military. I wish you and your daughter the best. Love you sister she is very talented.

    The two of you are simply amazing, and to be producing content of this quality while also processing your grief (and finishing a degree) is nothing short of miraculous. Never feel guilty about being you and doing what you need to do to keep healthy, physically and mentally. You know you have a loyal following, and they will always be here for you, appreciating everything you give so freely of yourself. Much love from Canada.

    I was thrilled to see you lovely girlies here. Not because I thought you were slacking (as this did not cross my mind) but because it is so good to see you both here. That is for two reasons. One, that you are managing ( and understandable this must be so very hard) and two, that your contents are fabulous. Well done girlies. A few years ago a dear friend bought the knitted wire necklace kit and it is really amazing. Loved seeing your family and your beautiful knitting. As a Yorkshire girl I cannot wait for you to have your trip to Yorkshire. Enjoy it all and sending hugs to you both. You are fabulous and should be so proud ( as Andrew would be). ❤️
