  • Hey everyone!
    Welcome back to our Sunday podcast, "Sit and Kit for a Bit" with Arne and Carlos! As always, we bring you another episode full of crafting, chatting, and fun. For those of you who are new, this isn't just a knitting podcast; we dive into crochet, sewing, and all sorts of crafts. The name "Sit and Knit for a Bit" comes from our idea of you joining us while we craft and chat away. We've been doing this since the pandemic hit!😍
    Today, we're discussing our latest project: building an extension to our home. It's been quite the adventure, with the walls going up and the roof coming on. We're also turning a room into our dream studio with a gorgeous view of the lake.
    But let's not forget about our recent Easter vacation, where we had a full house with family visiting. We cooked up a storm, including a massive lasagna that could feed an army! And yes, we're off to London for a few days, but not before we share a funny story about a crochet blanket repair mishap in our bathroom.
    So, grab your crafting supplies, settle in, and let's dive into another episode of "Sit and Knit for a Bit"! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and leave us a comment below. Happy crafting, everyone!
    ARNE & CARLOS

    I decided I love the different colors around the flowers…easier to get rid of small amounts of scrap yarn too! 😊 I knit socks throughout the year so I have lots of leftovers and if the flowers are smaller…. I think that will look just as nice☺️💕

    I like the one with more colors! I mostly avoid black because it doesn’t go with anything in my house. That said, I love the one with bigger flowers and black background in your VW Bug.

  • @karenaskinas1135
    @karenaskinas1135 5 месяцев назад

    Exactly. I was wondering about a daybed in the bathroom!😂 it sounds beautiful. And the crochet blanket is lovely. It's a very hard choice, the same background or different. H,mm?, the pictures of the skiers are beautiful!

    I love both of your hexagonal crochet pieces. The one with the black back looks "chic", the other one has more of a rustic look. Some day I will make some of these.

    Thank you for another episode of the “Dead Lady’s Projects “, dahn, dahn, dahn!😅. Arne the elf has found a new Dead Lady’s Project to finish. By doing so, he saves the Dead Lady’s Reputation of Good Taste, so that she may Rest In Peace knowing that the finished product is Carlos Approved and Appreciated for a place in their home and lifestyle. Fin
    I think you may have a book series with that and maybe a ballet, “She Handed in Her Slippers .”
    In any case, I like this cross stitch because it looks like it has owl eyes and the yarn colors are nice.
    Plastic laminating the directions is a good idea that I think I will use.

    Hello Arne & Carlos, you must be so excited about the extension! Is the neighbour across the lake the lady I met in one of your lectures on the Havila Capella? If so, she was lovely! I agree. Once the building is finished, it will all blend in and look fabulous!! And to be sitting up high and looking down to the lake?? How beautiful! Crocheting your Granny Squares together looks so gooooood!!! I love the Crocheted Flowers blanket in black.... so dramatic! Cleaning through Crafting....I love it!! Carlos!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Peaceful breathing!!!

    Hiya Arne and Carlos 😊, l do so love Arne's tongue in cheek teasing,it offsets Carlos's need to organise the details and order of things so urgently; what a marvellous pair and how well suited; - together you are a balanced pair😅❤ Watched as Kate enthusiasticly related the trip she shared with you;- what a busy time you all have! I have been restoring some antique dolls and am caught up with much bead work and miniatures; so ,❤seeing your take on this aspect in your works Keep well safe and contented,best wishes, J.I.M.K Mrs. Brisbane, Australia 🇦🇺 ❤ 😀 🪃

    Knitting as always, brioche stitch! We girls always need more clothes.....my arms are open too! If you were my neighbors, I would never complain! As for the tower room you want, think gingerbread next Christmas! You were in New York and didn't tell me...tsk tsk tsk! I can relate to the lake swimming. My cousins would visit us in the summer from Baltimore and would turn blue in our Adirondack lakes 🤣🤣🤣. I like the black flower afghan. Black makes it pop 🍾! I love seeing the dollhouse. Thanks for the update. You will love Swan Lake. I have seen it with the NYC Ballet. Enjoy! Arne...the dead lady is looking down on you and smiling. She is happy, I am sure. Okay, make your bed and put a decorative statement piece folded at the bottom!

    ❤ Carlos! What grace! You are ready for the stage! 😊 The black is bold, but the flowers seem to get swallowed by it. The multi-colors are just cheerful and lovely. Arne, so many projects, so little time - the curse of being an artist. ❤ Safe travels and enjoy!

  • @brendatucker35
    @brendatucker35 5 месяцев назад

    Enjoy London, especially Liberty and a thrift store or 2 or 3 for Arne!!! Be careful of pick pockets, they are supposed to be quite a problem now... Don't carry your phone in your back pocket.

  • @marynimocks6791
    @marynimocks6791 5 месяцев назад

    Beautiful! I prefer the black background for unification, The lighter one looks a little too scrappy for my taste because it lacks contrast. However, I think ANY unifying background color is helpful in creating a unified look, whether dark or light, high contrast or low contrast. I just really like the scrap flowers to pop or gracefully blend into a background. Love you guys!!

    I'm knitting a pair of socks with a first try at a partridge heel. Love the look of it but challenging for me. Four rows to it as opposed to a two row short row heel I've done for years. Love this podcast! I can't wait for the patterns.❤

    Both options are beautiful. However, what about a blanket using both the black and the mixed colors? For example, make the background with the black and incorporate the mix colors into a pattern on top? Inspiring!

  • @carolfaber585
    @carolfaber585 5 месяцев назад

    Thank you for a jam packed episode! And for sitting in front of the window with a sign over it that says, “Do What”. I started out thinking it says “Do What You Love”, until Arne started talking about making a replica of your house, then I thought it must say “Do What?!?!” 😂
    That Liberty fabric is beautiful, and you have so much of it, I think it should be a shirt for you, not curtains for the dollhouse. And it’s looking like the dollhouse needs an extension to house all the stuff you want to put in it!
    I like both options for the crocheted flower project. The black feels more traditional to me, but the colorful one is more like Dolly Parton’s coat. Either one will be beautiful.
    I hope you will do another garden tour next year. I would love to go on one.
