First, Arne, that sweater is FABULOUS! Second, I absolutely ADORE the black and white woman's sweater with the big flower and the men's black and white sweater. I love living in Florida, but the lack of opportunities to wear sweaters is a drawback.
Loved this Sit and Knit for a bit. I feel like I was able to get out of the house with you. You guys are so entertaining. Never a boring episode. Thank you.
In the beginning of this video you fooled me, I thought could your house become any more beautiful! Tricky!!! Arne Your sweater is beautiful. It would take me ten years just to knit one arm 😁. I love the new crochet pattern. Just another project to fit into my time. Lovely to see your design on the cover of Rowan. So talented you men are. I hope you had a wonderful trip and don't give up on Helmer!! He will learn.
Totally agree with you both regarding the colour scheme and choosing colours. Carlos is right about the colour work and can waste time trying to figure out what colour goes with what. Thank you both. xx
You are artists. You can’t teach that. Love your chats. I’m not a knitter but I enjoy watching your creativity like admiring a beautiful painting. Thanks for sharing.
Such fun listening to you as usual.I used to make all my dolls clothes and accessories too, knitted and crocheted. We take our shoes off in Australia, we live on acreage and have chickens that free roam. You only learn that lesson once.
Love the Helmer Houdini story. He's like some of my cats: opening doors and wanting to be with you everywhere. At home i never close a door behind me, because first there will be a sing along and then they will open it by jumping on the handle. So the front door is always on an extra lock they can't open because it is round.
I had a german shepard as a child who could open doors (even the ones with knobs) and open windows too. The windows was especially a problem since if we locked the door she'd get out through the windows and she'd show up at my school (which was less then a block away at the time). She didn't escape to wander around, she'd escape to find me at school, I think she had a bit of seperation anxiety.
Love all your new Rowan designs before I even knew you'd done them. But honestly: Please put up a pattern for sale on Arne's sweater! I understand it was a scrap project, but the color selection and placement, combined with the stitch patterns, is just terrific! Re: Helmer, we had to train our dog out of her separation anxiety. Tell her goodbye and take care of the house, see ya later, etc., toss a few tiny treats toward her, then close the door. Wait one minute, come back in and ignore the dog. Repeat a thousand times, just increasing the interval you're gone. Worked beautifully. Good luck!
My husband's German grandmother had a dresser in the summer kitchen of her house where she stored mittens, hats, slippers, shopping bags, etc. Anyone who entered the house that didn't immediately go to get a pair of slippers very promptly got told quite forcefully to go and get slippers on. She had every size and style in that drawer.
I love you guys so much. And it's so sweet that the first thing you do in your getaway is talk about your dogs! You're such great doggy parents, you keep thinking of their welfare even when you're on vacation. Love your podcast, and listen to every one of them. Thanks for being there! Keep up the great work! I love the way you guys think, work, and care for one another and the world. The world is a better place with you in it. I love to sit and work on my knitting projects while listening to your podcast. Still get a chuckle about Porridgegate, all these months later.
And I forgot to say, in Bosnia and Herzegovina we take off our shoes, and expect our guests to do the same. It's a cultural thing - tradition and hygienic. And I always have slippers for guests in several different sizes! Thank you for today's Sit and Knit, I love "hanging out" with you two!
I do not crochet, BUT, those cute flowers are going to make me want to learn!! Loved this episode. I don't comment much, but had to this time. I started watching your podcast early on during the pandemic. It has given me joy and relaxation while my home is very full of remote working students and spouse. Thanks for that.
Hi guys, another 'smile for a while'. Helmer's intelligence will certainly provide you with hours of head scratching. I don't know how any visitors on Sit and Knit for a Bit would top your current show?? You are a unique duo. Love your down to earth ways and natural behaviour. Your Rowan designs are beautiful. Good to see you both . xxxx
I loved the episode! You are in a beautiful space today. You are always so respectful of each other’s comments and ideas. It is so enjoyable to watch. Thank you !
Hi guys! About pink and red - I hated that colour combination when I was a child. Nobody told me those colours shouldn't be combined, but it was my feeling about that at the time. Today, I like this combination of specific tones of red and pink, but then again, today I am art professor and painter, so my attitude is that there is no ugly colour if you can find a good complementary pair for it. Colours come alive when they are in company of another, or few others.
When I was a child (1960s, 1970s) I was told red and purple did not go together, and red and green was only for 'farmers' (not people living in town, like us)
@@ingeleonora-denouden6222 As a child (90s) I was told never to pair green and blue. But I like that colour combination because it's found in nature, like grass and sky.
Carlos you should know it’s the darkness in the closet that makes clothes shrink. Sometimes they get lonely and afraid and just tighten up from stress. They need light and air to remain their original size. 😊❤️ Oh my, you made me laugh so hard when you tried to take your shoes off I had tears in my eyes. You two are so funny.
Arne’s sweater is so beautiful and so is Carlo’s Norlender. I would love to try the doll pattern and the poodle pattern. I need to start a crochet project. The blanket would be perfect. Looking forward to the surprise! So glad you are having a good outing. Your episodes are never too long!
love listening to you talk about the design process, its amazing what work goes into producing something that we knit from a pattern without really thinking. Interesting chat about the colours too and then your Rowan cardigan is pink and red! I was also fascinated then with the colours and patterns on Arne's jumper....it's amazing
Thank you Jen, we have a few others where we talk about our process and show it from idea to finished product: ua-cam.com/play/PLElv_tSbHW3qn8RKkX2Zu8Kug2mKGcjVo.html
We take our shoes off in others' homes in Canada as well. I've lived in the US and had to ask them to remove their shoes. Once, a young man refused and, since I didn't know him well and didn't care to impress him, I wouldn't let him in. There was no second date.
Oh I did think it was your dining room at home, so SURPRISE! Hee hee hee! Beautiful Trondheim, so so lovely you brought us here! Your sweaters are gorgeous, complementing the setting, what a beautiful sight, and feeling, April 2021, as we all move through pandemic. THANK YOU both for this uplift, and joy today! ❤️❤️
Lots of people are afraid of color. I'm not a master designer, but I quilt, knit (easy stuff) and crochet. I think that color sense is instinctive, as you have said. I think it's easy to take cues from nature, just for starters. Gardens: there are no "wrong" combinations there. I've been inspired by design books, art....what makes me feel good. My only no-no is overall drabness. ;) Thanks for not taking your pants off. hahaha
So excited! Just purchased the Auden blanket with small floral squares pattern. Can’t wait to get started. Thank you for another great project and pattern.
Love your new fabulous Drawing Room lol. I also love your Valentina Doll but I guess I will have to be patient and wait for the pattern. Enjoy the rest of your stay Guys.
This room is lovely and before you spoke I thinking wow, you had really kept this room a secret from us... ha ha I love the background sounds it definitely sounds like a hotel and your voices sound wonderful..... At any rate this is quite lovely and such a good idea...
Congratulations on the Rowan cover, I will buy the magazine! Love the dolls, I was thinking you could make a Dolly Parton doll 😉It would be great to have a whole family of doll patterns, complete with Freya and Helmer, and a moose! I hope you can travel more, your travels in Norway make me want to come and visit!!
The doll is adorable. Love your remodeling job... We have found for our puppies that having someone come in to take care of them works so much better. Helmer is a smarty pants...adorable little guy. Thank you for an another great video, Have fun in the big wide world....take care.
I'd love make this cute little doll for my youngest grandchild as I sewed some for my older ones. Although the dolls looked tattered after some time it was worth the work. The kids loved them, somehow they seemed to feel the energy and love that went into those projects.
Helmer is a puppy still and a smart one at that. During COVID you have been home and now he just needs to know that you will come back. Once things go back to normal he will become adjusted to being left as you travel more often. Maybe the people who look after him could take him for a car ride more often so that becomes normal and he is comfortable -- he could go to that house for a couple of hours and them pick him up. Then all would seem normal. Good to be out and about though and feeling normal. Ottawa is locked down as is all of Ontario. Be safe!!!
Is the vaccine available to you all there? In Arizona its available to 16 year olds and up now. But we are still just under 50% vaccinated. I just had my 2nd yesterday!
I love the setting today, very stylish. The doll pattern would be lovely. I feel the need to go and drink champagne and knit. Thank you for everything you do, it's a lovely fun filled 15 minutes 😃
I really must come for a holiday in Norway and bring a whole load of WIPs with me. In a land where 15 mins becomes 50 I should be able to get so much done. Great podcast as always!
I've been watching your Crochet Mandala series whilst working on my Hedvig throw (45 flowers done now) and I'm already wanting to do these cute granny squares! I know you often mention the confusion between US and UK terms but I've found the most helpful thing is watching your videos and Arne explaining how many 'times round the needle', especially as I didn't know the terms anyway!I've only really learnt to crochet competently since Christmas using your crochet basics playlist.
I was in Tennessee over the weekend next to Dollywood and I thought of you guys!! Also, it blows my mind that Arne can just casually come up with an amazing sweater with difficult patterns with left over yarn!
Poodles are very smart and Helmer is proving that. I've seen videos of all the designs in the new Rowan book, one of my favourites is Maggie. There are so many in this new book that I would love to make. Thank you for another wonderful Sit and Knit, take care, stay well.
Love you guys! I am not a crocheter, but I love that blanket so much I may need to learn. I retire in a few years. Will put it on my to do list. Love the Rowan pattern book as well.
It has been so enjoyable to catch up on these episodes. Every one of them is special, and this one was no exception. I felt as though I were there with you, in your "newly renovated sitting room" LOL. I'm so glad you were able to get out of the house and stay in a lovely hotel. The granny squares are so lovely. They will make for a gorgeous blanket. It's nice to have a project you can work on together while you're away from home. It reminds me of one of the early profile pictures you had on your Facebook page of both of you working on the granny squares outside on your porch. I found the discussion on how your design process works quite fascinating. It is true, though, that putting colours together cannot be taught. It is an innate skill, I find, and your particular way of putting colours together is your signature. I just loved Arne's sweater. It just amazes me that he can just start knitting and make up patterns and combine colours on the go and so quickly. Fascinating! Thank you for taking the time during your busy schedule to make this podcast.
Arne & Carlos you enrich my life, and I want to thank you for that 😘💐😘💐
Thank you so much Sarah!
You are such sweeties for replying... made my day 🌹🌹
You two seem to be such a beautiful combo! Carlos sensible and Arne playful! Love you both!
I love the way you two guys speak to one another. So respectful and kind ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Another great episode. Yes on the Dolly pattern.
😁
First, Arne, that sweater is FABULOUS! Second, I absolutely ADORE the black and white woman's sweater with the big flower and the men's black and white sweater. I love living in Florida, but the lack of opportunities to wear sweaters is a drawback.
True😁
Yes please I would love to have the doll pattern!!
Thank you for all the joy you bring to my life!
Thank you for watching Terri!
Your ability to judge 15 minutes is amazing! :oD
😅
You're so right about that . . . 0 plus 54 = 15 minutes, not 55 minutes! Funny.
I'm glad you finished that great sweater, Arne. Excellent!!!!
Thank you!
Loved this Sit and Knit for a bit. I feel like I was able to get out of the house with you. You guys are so entertaining. Never a boring episode. Thank you.
Yay!
You are right! Knitting needles are taking a rest and i am working on a UFO afghan pattern now! I really enjoyed this episode. You two crack me up!
Thank you for watching Lynnie!
YES YES YES for the doll pattern! She’s wonderful!

Thank you Vicki!
We were in Trondheim in 2018, the birthplace of my great grand dad, we are so looking forward to a return visit❤️

Standard poodles are so smart and intelligent. They're incredible! Love them!
The best!
I grew up with an easy European parents and we always took off our shoes for the same reason of respect for the person who cleaned the home.

I always take off my shoes too out of respect and carry a pair of socks in my bag when visiting.
Thanks for taking us to a beautiful place. Arne your sweater is awesome.
Thank you!

Poodles are extremely intelligent dogs. I have a toy poodle 🐩 and I swear she understands every word I say. Never had a dog so so smart.
They are incredibly smart.
Wow!! Arne's sweater is so beautiful!! That's from leftover yarn too! What a great use for leftovers. I love this 👌🏼
Great show Arne and Carlos 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you!

Great Sweater, Arne, I am most inspired
Thank you!
Wow that was a great change of scenery! What a beautiful hotel. I’d buy that Rowan book just for the pictures ❤️
It is beautiful!
This room is lovely and before you spoke I thinking wow, you had really kept this room a secret from us... ha ha I love the background sounds it definitely sounds like a hotel and your voices sound wonderful..... At any rate this is quite lovely and such a good idea...

I'm with you, Carlos, on the styles of the 50's. I love just looking at the styles in movies from that period.
True!
It’s a matter of time before Helmar learns your door code!
He will eventually😉
@@ARNECARLOS he already knows it. he just pretends he doesn't so you won't discover he sneaks out to visit the moose while you sleep.
I totally believed you when you said it was the new decor of your living room! Until, you said, I was like: yeah that's totally Arne and Carlos! :)
😂
Oh, Helmer! He is the new diva in your house. Maybe you could do a collaboration with Ceasar Milan?
That would be fun
But poor Helmer would be like having a visit from the headmaster 😱! Though Cesar has wonderful results.
@@ARNECARLOS Actually Zach George's methods are more humane and kind to animals- He is a big UA-cam Star also-
Your granny square blanket is very pretty. I made one years ago and forgot about it until your podcast. Is so fun to do.
It takes time, but its worth it!
From now on, you must have a man playing background music on a piano for the Sit & Knit for a Bit podcasts.
It adds a bit to the atmosphere!
Really enjoyed your "out and about" video today. Congratulations on the Cover. Just imagine what Helmer could accomplish if he had thumbs.
We are scared to even think about that!
Would love to see a pattern for the doll
👍
Thanks for sharing Guys, another Wonderful episode. Jo xxx
Thank you!
Is the vaccine available to you all there? In Arizona its available to 16 year olds and up now. But we are still just under 50% vaccinated. I just had my 2nd yesterday!
We are not sure when it will be our time, but more and more people are getting it every day!
Nice one for the Rowan spread, guys. X
Thank you!
Will you put the doll's name in the comments please? And, of course, she also needs pants!
We all needs pants! Valentina
I heard him call her, ValenTina in a previous vide!! made during valentine's day, as I recall Arne said. Shes such a cutiepie!!
Arne love the new sweater Looks great on you
Thank you Sandra!
Again, another wonderful episode. You both are so generous for taking time to share all your passions with us? Thank you so very much.☺️🇨🇦

It has been so enjoyable to catch up on these episodes. Every one of them is special, and this one was no exception. I felt as though I were there with you, in your "newly renovated sitting room" LOL. I'm so glad you were able to get out of the house and stay in a lovely hotel.
The granny squares are so lovely. They will make for a gorgeous blanket. It's nice to have a project you can work on together while you're away from home. It reminds me of one of the early profile pictures you had on your Facebook page of both of you working on the granny squares outside on your porch.
I found the discussion on how your design process works quite fascinating. It is true, though, that putting colours together cannot be taught. It is an innate skill, I find, and your particular way of putting colours together is your signature.
I just loved Arne's sweater. It just amazes me that he can just start knitting and make up patterns and combine colours on the go and so quickly. Fascinating!
Thank you for taking the time during your busy schedule to make this podcast.
