    Martina...you are living within your means, that's completely honorable & ethical! You don't need to feel guilty about anything. Hey enjoy that beautiful Drops yarn, and I'm looking forward to seeing all those beautiful socks you're going to make. Blessings ~ Sue

    To fly with knitting needles, detach the needles from the cord and store the needle with some pens or pencils… they’ll blend right in if scanned.

      Do you pop them out if you want to knit on the way or do you just transfer them on the flight like that? :) I want to knit all the way so I haven't had the courage to try to take my undetachable chiaogoos with me to the cabin.

    Wonderful podcast as always!!
    From my knowledge you can take wooden needles on the planes. I always have them on cables and bring stoppers in case for whatever reason they ask me to remove them I don’t have to rip my knitting off the cables.
    Also.. happy birthday! Hope you have a wonderful time away with your sister!xxx

    Hi Martina, I appreciate your attitude to protect the nature and avoid the harm to the animals. I hope you feel well being less harsh to yourself since you are doing already a great job! We play our roles well and let the others be what they want to be, and try to ease ourselves from taking responsibility of the others. I like working with natural yarns as well as making garments for my family and friends. But some of them don't get used to taking care of natural pieces which even makes them be stressful, I felt so sorry to give a gift that is no suitable for my friends, that's why I started to accept synthetic yarns to be worked with.

    Martina, I've recently done a 5 hour flight from UK to Jordan and I knitted all the way. I asked the security at the airport before I went, they said any knitting needles were okay, however I chose to knit on wooden ones to be 'safe'

    I'm always glad to see you've posted a new video, Martina. :-) Happy birthday! Auguri! I love Pia's designs but didn't realize she had a podcast on UA-cam. Of course, I subscribed. Have a wonderful time in Dublin. Call the airline, but also be ready to give up your needles. Switch to a cheap set you won't be sad to lose just in case of trouble at the airport.

    Love your podcast, Martina. As for knitting needles for traveling, I watched Jonathan’s Day podcast and what he did was only to bring wooden or bamboo interchangeable needles, take out those needles from the cable, put needles stoppers on them and put them inside a pencil case (together with few other stationary). That way they will show or look like “pens or pencils” on the scanner. He travelled around Europe not long ago. Good luck, safe journey and happy birthday🎉🎉🎉.

    You are such a joy to watch, thank you so much for your inspiration for my own knitting projects. It is a conundrum with price/ethically sourced and produced yarn but it does allow more participation and inclusion for knitters with not so much money to enjoy this lovely craft.

    Really enjoying your videos. Thank you for sharing all your makes. They are beautiful. I wanted to say that when I traveled from USA to Poland I had no issues with my knitting needles. I brought my Hiya Hiya exchangeable set on the plane without any problems. They are metal tips that are 4 inches long. I just put them in my carry on back pack and not a person bothered me about them. I did get stopped on the way back to USA and my needles where in my carry on back pack, but it was a jar of honey that they wanted to investigate. Hope this helps.

    Taking wooden needles with me on the plane has never been a problem for me (I've been flying with different european airlines lately). Just leave the project in the bag during security check and you should be fine! Have a happy birthday and a wonderful holiday!

    Happy birthday Martina. Thank you for speaking about affordability versus sustainability. At the end of the day it's still far more sustainable to buy an 'unethical' yarn and make the garment yourself than buy a premade fast fashion item . Small steps and changes add up. You've inspired me to try plant based yarns. Enjoy Ireland.

Wooden needles have not been an issue flying, although I mostly go inside the US. I agree, I would not take my favorite ones which have metal connections... Have a lovely visit with your sister and please share scenery from Ireland, I nearly went once and would love to see it. Thank you for the giveaway too, you are so generous. 💜

    Thank you for another beautiful episode! All of your projects look really amazing! 😍 When I flew from New Zealand to Germany I was knitting on wooden needles throughout the whole flight and it wasn’t a problem at all and I also took my knitting on a flight from Colombia to Germany and no one said anything. From what I heard it really depends on the airline, I’ve heard for example that emirates doesn’t allow knitting needles at all. I would maybe contact the airline and ask them just to be sure… I wish you a good flight and an amazing time in Dublin with your sister ❤️

    Hello Martina and thank you for your lovely podcast. I love all your makes and your yarn choices. I'm always afraid to use a yarn different from what the pattern suggests because I have a difficult time getting guage. I have a ton of cotton yarn I want to use up. Your podcasts provide me with lots of ideas. I look forward to seeing more of your buttons.

    stumbled over your podcast, and i really enjoyed it! you use such lovely colors. also, about knitting on the plane: i usually bring spare needles if i have checked in luggage, and put my work on a separate thread during security, just in case they take my needles. knitting is fairly popular where i live, so its not been a problem for me, im not sure about the rest of europe.

    Hello Martina, you are very inspiring in your choices and I love your podcasts. You have very good taste. Regarding the airplane issue and knitting, Jonathan from the podcast "Jonathan Day", a guy who is knitting, and who went to Ireland and the US last year said that he would take wooden interchangeable needles, take it off his work and put it in a pen pocket together with other pen and blocked the cables to keep his work on place and he had no problem at all. What I would do, just to be on the safe side is to call the company and to ask the question about their security policy on that matter. Enjoy your trip, and I looove your olive tree buttons and all your work. Floriane

    I just wanted to say be long to yourself. We all have moments in time we're we can't afford "luxury, sustainable, fancy" yarn. But that doesn't mean you have to stop doing the thing that brings you joy. You don't have to justify your purchases to anyone. This is your space. Also fun fact. You and my son share a birthday. So happy early birthday!!

    Hello Again Martina...and "Buon Compleanno" my friend! Another wonderful video :) The teacher in me had to tell you that you pronounced "mercerized" & the other word correctly (can't remember what it was now). You really do a wonderful job with your English, so no worries. Have a wonderful holiday in Ireland, my dream is to some day travel to Italy & Ireland, so I will look forward to hearing all about it! I believe the weather we have in the San Francisco Bay area (I live about an hour inland out in the country from the city) is very similar to the mediterranean area where you live. We've been having ferocious windy spring days, and then beautiful spring sunny days (back & forth continually) I loved the new Milkweed Sweater, a great new project for you to work on. Safe travels from California🙂

    A beautiful podcast as always. I've travelled all over Europe from Canada and have never had a problem with my knitting needles. I usually take sock metal needles and it's not been a problem. However it's worth checking or put them on wooden needles and you will be fine.
    Love your beautiful projects.

    I've been watching you since you uploaded your second podcast video you seem like such a kind soul! I love your attitude towards life. You also inspired me to knit my first ranunculus and try out linen yarn. You were right, it's definitely hard to knit with at first but I'm starting to enjoy it. I hope you have a great rest of spring!! :)

    Hi! Love the podcast :) About flying with knitting: I've had no problem flying from Europe to the US (where you'd think they're super strict) and I had metal needles, but I put needle stoppers on the ends, and pushed them into my yarn so it was clear what it was for! I don't think they even noticed it! When I looked at the computer screen at the security I saw sticks with my heart-shaped needle stoppers on the ends, which was quite hilarious :) xxx

    Martina, with your dying your yarn, to wash it and not have it shift colour, you have to be sure to wash it in a ph. Neutral soap, most wool wash is ph neutral, so is pure Castile soap. Most laundry soap(powdered) is alkaline, and will shift the colour of your top, it would make it golden,more dark, so be careful choosing what you wash your top with, I love the cloudberry top, it has been in my queue for awhile! All the best, Melissa.

    So inspiring! I’ve struggled with buying sustainable fibers, they’re just sooo expensive! Our house is for sale and then we will buy a large plot of land to homestead and I would love to get goats and sheep and make my own yarns! But until then… Hopefully, we will be on our new land by fall time.
    I also wanted to say that your Flutter Buttshirt is sooo cute! I have saved the pattern, maybe I’ll make it after I finish my ribbed bralette.

    Hi, I have knitted and travlled for 40 years and have never been stopped or my needles have never been taken away. I fly mostly in Norway, but has travelled to the whole of Europe. I have heard that there are restrictions to Latvia/ Riga and Estland/ Talinn, but I have never been stopped. To be sure, bring wooden needles. Maybe things have changed since the corona. I flew last week and brought my wooden needles in Norway, no problem.
