Solar activity has been so dramatic lately that the Northern Lights have been visible all over the United States, even here in the Washington, DC area, and even as far south as the state of Georgia! It's been crazy, that old sun of ours just dancing up a storm!
Gentlemen, I have about a dozen of such quilt squares made by my Mothers family. Rather than make one large quilt, I had them all framed, and have made a magnificent “studio wall” with all of them in one of my guest rooms.! Thanks for all your inspiration!
I'm sitting here laughing as you are talking about the aurora borealis. My daughter is a Virgo and I'm a Cancer. Your conversation is sounding just like ours. She's always correcting me. Ha, ha, ha!😂
Love the new collection, the sled dogs are great! And I think you referred to “yarn chicken”( running out of yarn before the project is finished), which is based on the 1950’s dangerous teenaged game of “playing chicken” with two cars racing towards each other- the one who turned away first to avoid a crash was the “chicken” - he was too afraid and so turned away to avoid a crash before running out of roadway.
Trip sounds fabulous. Glad you gif not blow away, Arne .Enjoyed all the ‘shorts’ highlights. Thanks. Love the ‘Viking hats’ !!! Horns are hilarious . ❤x
I would love a close up look at the piece behind you - a moose walking (by a lake?). Is it back lit, or a plate, or a globe? House tour, please! Thank you!
I ordered my yarn online from Maine. Yarn will arrive in Washington this Tuesday. 🎉 I do have some yarn left from last years Christmas Stocking and some ornaments but wanted to make sure I was not playing yarn chicken . :)Thank You Arne and Carlos! for doing the mystery knit along another year. I learned a lot last year.
We have the remnants of a Viking settlement here in L’Anse aux Meadows,Newfoundland…I went there to visit ,very interesting….they stage what it may have looked like and have the huts with actors dressed as they would have over 1000 years ago…
My yarns arrived last night, here in North Carolina, yay! I definitely had to shop different online stores as emerald color was sold out, but I was told they’re restocking.
It’s Kit Kittridge! I’m so excited you got an American Girl doll!!! I have her and Kirsten, who is from Sweden, but has a Setesdal type sweater and outfits…
We saw her (Aurora) a few weeks back over our house, the sky was all pink and purple. But the most special one was with Kate & you guys and all of our lovely quilting, knitting, and travel friends in March in Lofoten. Nice to be back there (in our mind) through your podcast just now. Love from the Netherlands S&A&B
I've always loved your designs but the polar bear collection is really amazing. The doll in her gorgeous dress is ready for Oscar night! Just so beautiful. 😊 ♥
The NFL really have to start adjusting its schedule to not overlap with my Arne & Carlos episode releases! LOL. The worst part is waking up excited for a new episode then realizing IT'S ONLY SATURDAY!
I’m using the same yarn I used last year Caron simply soft so this years will match last years. I can’t wait for the KAL to start. I really enjoyed doing it last year.
It's been a great year for auroras in North America (i.e. Canada). The camera on my phone shows the colours, as you mentioned. You might remember a solar storm from August 1972? I will never forget it!! I might have talked about it before here because Arne has mentioned auroras from his childhood. Anyway I learned the August 1972 aurora was one of the most significant storms in history - my little kid 'gut' knew it too back then ;) I remember that the majority of that huge aurora was white for me but small bits of colour (not only green) were visible to my eye at times when the giant 'curtain' flapped. It looked so big and close I thought I could touch it. And I feel like I remember hearing it ??? Do you remember ever hearing an aurora, Arne? It was an incredible experience! I really enjoy your sit and knit for a bit episodes. The crazy quilt square you showed and your doll dress are lovely. Thank you both for sharing your experience with us!
Ah Arne, are you referring to the Chinese Year? This year is the Dragon, and next year is the Snake. Dogs are opposites of Dragons and are 6 years apart. I love the fun feel of the collection this year. It is uplifted by the colors and classic design features. Well done. I bet it will do very well!
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. You two are a delight and always brighten my day. The new Rowan collection is fabulous. I’m looking forward to the MKAL too. My favorite yarn shop was sold out of Rowan Norwegian Wool but I was able to get the yarn elsewhere. Enjoy your trip to Japan! Safe travels.
It has been a while since I knitted stockings, and I am always concerned about doing the HEEL. Will there be easy instructions for the heel? I will be using circular needles ( yes, Arne, I know! :)
Omg I love your dickies and I must have the polar bear. Do you have one with the husky on a dickie? Love the vest and hat, too. I must go pattern shopping. It was great sitting with you both as always. Great finds. Thanks for sharing. Love the doll dress with the flower applique. Proud of you, Carlos, for finishing your project. But I'm more like Arne with so many projects going, haha. I can't wait to see all about your trip to Japan. Safe travels! I can't wait for the mystery KAL❤
Arne! You are so like me, and my husband is like Carlos. And I just found out that what we are, are Scanners. Look it up. Scanners are people who have so many interests that we don’t have time for the details that Carlos and my Steve have. It was such a relief to know that it was not ADHD or that I was just forgetful. (that’s why we keep them around Arne. They’re the detail people that we need in our lives.🤣) Love you both.
What's everyone working on while watching? I'm doing a version of the Astrid blanket for my adult son, who wants a mom-made blanket that feels like a hug when we're apart.
Most Americans between the ages of 45 and 60 think vikings had horns on their helmets thanks to Elmer Fudd and Buggs Bunny (Looney Tunes Cartoons)....back in the 60's they did an episode of the opera....Buggs Bunny dressed like a Valkery with horns on her helmets and Elmer Fudd sang a song about his shield and magic helmet.....Americans tend to have a small closed idea of the world, but in the past 2 decades many of us have been trying to change that
Bravissimissimi per quanto riguarda il lavoro ,e simpaticissimi come persone, peccato che non mi arriva la tradizione in italiano ,ciao, cari saluti ,alla prossima ,i cappellini sono fantastici😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love how Arne and Carlos own the most fashionable dolls in the world. I should have frocks as posh as your dolls wear. Love it!
I ❤the sable silk you used for Cher’s dress! The color is AMAZING! I love how it shifts and shines!

Another wonderful catch-up! Thanks so much and also, thank you for the information about the coal industry in the north. I had no idea! XOXO
Love, love the shelf behind you!!! You guys are so creative!😊. We appreciate you! Those hats are splendid! Thanks for sharing!😊
I’m so happy that my sweater is back in Norway! The cruise was wonderful! Thank you!
So glad and amazed you got to view the Arrora so many times...we have been able to view it here Southwest Michigan USA
Thank you for making me laugh. The sweaters are gorgeous. Chocolate.???

Yes, my body clock is back on GMT today. Whoop woo. Loved your shorts from the last cruise , thanks
That is a stunning dress, I’d love to see Arne finish it up with a little mohair bolero jacket in electric blue or turquoise. ❤
DEFINITELY Frame them!
So beautiful!
Love your helmets.
It’s Kit Kittridge! I’m so excited you got an American Girl doll!!! I have her and Kirsten, who is from Sweden, but has a Setesdal type sweater and outfits…
A great Sunday visit, as always. Appreciate the unedited videos; so much better than edited. Great new designs. Looking forward to the KAL.
I'd love a polarbear blanket

Has the next cruised booked? Working a sock pattern .
OMG I LOVE THOSE HATS! I have to make one for my husband.
Can't wait for the knit along! 😊 thanks for this episode, so much fun listening to the both of you while I knit ❤ Have fun in Japan!
Thank you!
Gorgeous 💕 Wow, those sweaters are amazing!
I’m using the same yarn I used last year Caron simply soft so this years will match last years. I can’t wait for the KAL to start. I really enjoyed doing it last year.
Had to get mine from Denmark! Only took 5 days to get to the USA 😊

We are as well!
I’m excited to do the mystery stocking pattern. I did the stocking last year and love it.
We are glad you are joining!

Arne’s horns are flopping all over 😂😂 Did you guys get new haircuts too ?

Utrolig flotte de nye genserne dere har designet, spesielt de med isbjørn 🙌
Takk!

When are you going to release the toe portion for the stocking? Will that be day one?
What's everyone working on while watching? I'm doing a version of the Astrid blanket for my adult son, who wants a mom-made blanket that feels like a hug when we're apart.
Awww😊
I made all of my children blankets years ago. So happy when they tell me they bring them out for fall.😊
Carlos you look like you got sunburned or windburned!😊
