    I commend you on protecting the insects! Every fall I cover my garden with all of the falling leaves….my neighbor “strongly suggested“ I not do so and rake them all up so they didn’t fly all over …. I responded that I didn’t want to …she asked why and I told her they protected the plants and bugs and worms and bees during the winter…she looked at me like I had four heads and walked away 😂😂😂😂

    The tool for carving wood that turns is a lathe. They are great for hand made rolling pins!

    • @jaebee9308
      @jaebee9308 Рік тому +2

      Lathe is one syllable, and pronounced like "Lay" with a th sound at end. The e is silent. Rhymes with Bathe.

    • @snfordice
      @snfordice Рік тому +2

      When one uses a lathe, one "turns" or carves one's projects. Arne, you could use your lathe to turn custom stands for all your fancy lamps!

    Mosquitoes are at the bottom of the food chain. I think that citronella candles or torches are great for a small area to be mosquito free. Also I have used essential oils of lavender, lemon etc. .to help me personally not be bothered by them as well. I enjoy watching and listening to your adventures, advice, and your shorts are brilliant so glad you have added them into your routine of videos. I will be sure to watch the edited reruns.

    If your not going to have a kitchen for a while. Make your meals ahead of time, put them in microwave safe food keepers, and freeze them. Then when you want a meal just use a microwave and reheat and eat. Not as good as fresh food, but better than not so good Chinese. Also with weather being nice you can cook outside. Love the Cardigan. Those are one of my favorite things to knit. There are some wonderful plants you can put in your garden that actually repell mosquitoes. Lavender, Rosemary, Marigolds, Basil, Lemongrass, Catnip just to name a few. I am in Missouri and these plants are life savers. As always wonderful video and I love your peacock scarf pattern, I bought it last week. Wonderful video. Thanks for the time you take to share with us.

    Angle grinder, the tool with the round disc that can cut through iron Arne..... have only recently started to watch you two and I don't even knit! Just sewing here. But I love everything you do. Still catching up with old episodes and loving it. The spindles with embroidery thread are amazing, I would love a display of those. I was without a proper kitchen for a year! And a Christmas without running water and guests. We managed. Although the flooring still needs doing when we have saved up again. Keep up the good work 😊

  • @christinaheesakacowden-wut3809

    Actually all kinds of insects are important, not only bees. Buggs pollinate too. Even mosquitos have a purpose. Birds eat them for example and bats and birds are important for carying seeds to all kinds of destinations through their droppings, therefore contributing to the spreading of plants. So keep on building those insect hotels folks 🙂

  • @karinlightner775
    @karinlightner775 Рік тому +1

    Especially loved seeing items "unearthed" from Arne's workshop! With regard to mosquitos, I read an article recently and it indicated that having a fan going is enough to keep the mosquitos away because their delicate wings cannot compete with the fan's air flow.

    Morning Arne and Carlos from Oz. A bit late but sending Birthday wishes to Arne. 60 years young. I love your young spirit , your love of paper dolls, doll’s houses and thrift shopping and beautiful things. Also your giggles. Makes me laugh. The red crocheted jacked is amazing. So much talent. Carlos I hate mozzies too. They love me.Citronella coils work really well. Looking forward to your next videos. Take care. Marilyn

      Dear Christine, sorry you're struggling with mental health. You're not alone, truly. I lost my husband after 47 years of being married, and you know I found my consolation in knitting. Knitting saved my mind, honestly. While I'm planning, choosing colors and patterns, making switches, Knitting and all that entails, I don't have to think on anything else. I'm sending you a friendly hug, may you get well and remember the Knitting community is wonderful. Greetings from Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦. Lupita

    We've had extra rain here in Colorado, too. I didn't have time to watch this until Sunday morning, but enjoyed it. My husband likes to play with his wood turning lathe, but mostly makes candle holders. We have a couple of really big ones sitting on the hearth by the fireplace.

    Watched this episode and enjoyed it so much. Just got home from a mini vacation at a Montana mountain cabin 10 minutes from where I live here. The mosquitoes ate me alive! I share your hatred of them, Carlos. They've been horrible this year. I am glad that you mentioned Carson Delete' book. I had also purchased a copy. April 30 I tripped over my open dishwasher door and face planted; the fall broke several teeth and fractured my right shoulder quite badly. The pain was excruciating and remained very painful until the bones began to knit back together. I thought I might never be able to knit again. I am happy to report that I am knitting again and, once I fully recover I anticipate being back where I was in terms of proficiency. I showed the book to the occupational therapist helping me to recover and she was really impressed. Arne, your command of the English language is quite impressive too. I understand how it would be confusing how the same word (& spelling) can have multiple meanings...i.e., knitting bones, and knitting yarn. Fun to make puns.

    I toted my copy of John Muir's "Compleat Idiot" book of VW repair for years when I had a 1963 Beetle, along with a tool box filled with metric wrenches, which were hard to come by in the US back then, the mid-70s. By the time I finally graduated from that car, the book was black with oily grime and I was an expert on roadside repairs of a very old and cranky Beetle. Good times!

    Hi Arne & Carlos I'm sitting watching your show here in Australia. Always have a good giggle . You asked if anyone is interested in you showing some weaving I would love to see you do a segment on weaving . But always love, what ever you mention particularly history of clothing buildings etc in Norway. A country I have always wanted to travel to. On the mosie front I have always used a oil burner with citronella oil in it keeps the mosies at bay. Cheers from Prue in Australia ❤

One day it will all be finished. As my hubby says just when your finished you think it’s time to start again hehe. Like with everything people only see the end product. Not all the hard work that goes into making them, or time involved . Lovely cardigan Arne, your a really great knitter.
