    I'm coming to you from the Netherlands so excuse my Dutchy English. I enjoy all the inspiration in the worldwide knitting community so much. I would love to share my 'handwerk perikelen' (also known as crafty adventures) with you.

    I was drinking coffee when you started to describe what dogs do, and I spit out my coffee I was laughing so hard! The Dutch word is close to what we call it - poop - but seriously your using the other word was a scream! You are an absolute delite!

    I had to pause the video because I was laughing hysterically! It was just what I needed. You are the most delightful human being! Cheating on your sewing machine and using the word s**t on a knitting podcast! Sarah you are the best! Thanks for being you ❤

  • @barb2083
    @barb2083 10 месяцев назад +8

    Sarah, have you changed the sewing machine needle? Sometimes that makes all the difference & such an easy fix. The experts will say to change it with every project. (I don't, but I do change it often!) Also, using the correct needle for the fabric type is important. Good luck❤❤❤

  • @gisellecubillos871
    @gisellecubillos871 10 месяцев назад +2

    So much laughter with the “sh**ting” but in a good way. The word is technically accurate but since it’s also considered by many as a vulgar word it’s funny to hear it unintentionally in a sweet knitting episode

    Congratulations to your son, Sarah. You will enjoy Prague - we went in the autumn, and the weather was much colder than I expected because there is so much dampness in the air near the river. But all the soups served in bread bowls and the goulash will keep you warm! I am looking forward to seeing your dLana project - I am knitting a sweater in dLana Madrilana right now as I watch, and on Saturday I am visiting their store for a workshop. Besitos, @lamanchaknitter

    Sarah…you made me laugh so hard I was coughing and crying all together…then I kept replaying that portion…thank you so much for a wonderful laugh today. Your skirt is lovely…with anything new, there is always a learning curve…it will take time. The more you do it, your skills will improve. Months from
    now, you will look back and laugh at your beginning adventures of sewing. Congratulations on your upcoming trip and happy birthday 🎊🎉🎈🎁🎂!!! Have fun!!! Stay safe and be blessed ❤

    Have wonderful time in Prague! It is a beautiful city. I was there almost 20 years ago and stayed in a Youth Hostel that was a former jail. It was a great trip and I still have wonderful memories of it. Thank you for making me think of it again.
    We do say dog poop in American English. I think British English is poo bag. It a more polite word than sh*t. And a Mode show is called a Fashion show in English. Thanks for a wonderful episode!

    Hi Sarah, there is a person watching you from Prague:) I hope you enjoy your time in our hundered-tower city and here are two yarn shops which you defintely need to visit: Yarn Queen (good selection of yarn) and Woolpoint (good selection + you can do a beautiful walk down the hill from this store through a Petřin gardens - the trees should be still in great colours!) Thank you for all your great episodes which make me very happy everytime I watch them.

    Trunk show is what you were explaining I think with the garments that travel from shop to shop.. I love your videos. I wish you the happiest of birthdays and a fun trip. I was definitely not expecting you to say sh!t.😂🤣That was fabulous and so sweetly said. Each time getting funnier. I’m sure you didn’t mean THAT word, but from all the comments of your delighted viewers, you’ve definitely found your people! Here we are 🩵

  • @EvieBear236

    I loved this episode Sarah. I absolutely love those socks. Love the colour. I don't have a relationship with my sewing machine at all. Congratulations on your skirt. It's stunning! The word you are looking for is "poop*!! I had a good laugh!

  • @louiseedsall6096
    @louiseedsall6096 10 месяцев назад +1

    You keep it real girl!! Loved this ! My little dog looks at me when I pick up her poop (yep - other word works too😂). I have a little pink bag and I get the strangest look from her as if she is saying to me “ you want to gift wrap it? “ 😂 you are a delight and I needed the giggle! Love your skirt! Good luck with Wednesday sewing!

    Oh Sarah! As an Afrikaans speaking viewer you had me now laughing so hard with the dog ‘poepen’, I know in Dutch and Afrikaans there is another word, spelled the same, but much stronger (here in SA people use it as a swear word).
    I think I must ask my daughter now living in the Netherlands (very near to you) to buy me some of those lovely new DLana wool as a Christmas gift…
    Enjoy Praag!

    1. I love that you customized your sewing machine in an attempt to fall in love with it.
    2. There are way too many words to describe what comes out of a dog, and I think all the ones you used are perfect.
    I love your style…thank you for making such great videos.❤

    🤎🤎🤎 You did make me laugh out loud tonight 🤣😂😅 I think it was because it was so unexpected and innocently spoken. I have two little dogs, and all my coats/jackets have poo bags stuffed in the pockets. Always prepared. I envy your trip to Prague. I believe it’s a beautiful city. Enjoy yourselves and I hope your son wins at the Rugby. 🏉 Hope he keeps his ears and teeth protected! Loved all the knitting content today too… nearly forgot to mention that! 🧶

Yes, we call it poop, pooping and we use poop bags! If someone else's dog pooped on our sidewalk we would probably call it SHI*T!!!

    Have a wonderful Birthday, and holiday with your family. You always make my day! I understand your relationship with your sewing machine 100 percent. You have a wonderful way of putting all the things we silently think to ourselves into words. Keep shining, Sarah, you are changing lives in your little corner of the world, as your light touches us all. You give us, I feel, permission to laugh at ourselves. See you soon!

    Great job with the sewing! I had a hard time getting along with my first machine...turns out it wasn't very good and once I got a nice one, it was a whole new world and so less frustrating to learn to sew. Enjoy your time in Prague! We follow rugby in my house, too. I hope your son enjoys it and you can find some special birthday goodies at yarn shops.

    Hi Sarah - I hope you have a lovely time in Prague! I don’t know if you watch Inga’s podcast “Knitting Traditions”, but she is a Norwegian knitter who travels a lot and she checks out yarn stores wherever she goes. I think she was in Budapest not long ago and visited several Hungarian yarn stores. She might also be familiar with yarn stores in Prague. She is a very kind person and I’m sure she would be happy to share her knowledge with you. Happy Travels and Happy Birthday! 🎉

    P.S. Those felted things were pinecones, not pineapples dear. But after the first laugh I had earlier (dog poop bag), I figured to just keep going on laughing. Those are the cutest and most heartwarming "mistakes" ever and lots of us cheered up today. Thank you so much Sarah. Loved all your wonderful makes and presents. Hope you have a wonderful time in Prag. My son`s class is going in a couple of weeks as well. School trip. 😄

  • @ashfieldguild
    @ashfieldguild 10 месяцев назад +2

    Poop for US English, poo (verb and noun) here in the UK. When your dog has a poo, or goes for a poo. Your word is mild swearing, which came from Dutch/German, so makes sense 🤷‍♀️🤣

  • @edinacole6382
    @edinacole6382 10 месяцев назад +1

    Yay! Sarah made a skirt!! Great job! I make all of my clothing and have for years and years. Its the very best feeling to wear your clothes from head to toe. You can do this too Sarah. Be patient with yourself. Start slow. No one becomes great overnight. It takes time.

  • @kristpharo
    @kristpharo 10 месяцев назад +2

    Finally, I have a good excuse for using the poop-emoji 💩😂! Your sewing machine needs a little love sometimes, a nice cleaning, a drop of proper oil, and a new needle suitable for your fabric. Buy good quality thread that doesn’t break. Patience and some nice words will also help you two along 😉. Enjoy your birthday an Prague ❤️

    @genielhowe260 10 месяцев назад +1

    I can so relate to your feelings with your sewing machine. As far as the work in English for poop it’s poop or dog waste. I carry bags with me too to clean up after my dog.

    You do make me giggle - talking about dogs and cleaning up after them lol 😂
    In the U.K. we also have to cleanup after our dogs (although some ignorant people think it’s ok not too 😮)
    We call our bags poo bags but your description of s**t was hilarious 😂
    Thank you for another lovely, honest podcast 😘😘

    Thought you would enjoy 🤣
    You know you're Dutch when...
    The temperature is so low in your house that 2 sweaters is a bare minimum if you want to be remotely warm.

    You own a special utensil that is only used for cutting cheese.
    You know that Gouda is the best cheese ever.

    When you hear all the "new ways to save energy" you yawn and say "I've been doing that all my life!"

    You have a vegetable garden because there's no way you're paying that much for veggies at the grocery store.
    Your fridge is always stocked with leftovers. Throw out food? Never!

    You have pictures of windmills around your house.
    Everything is Do-It-Yourself - it's cheaper than hiring someone.
    You use "washandjes" (facecloths that you can put your hand into).
    You own tea towels and oven mitts patterned with windmills and dancing women in clogs.
    You call it "MELK" not "milk".
    All your cousins have the same names as your brothers and sisters,because everyone is named after Oma and Opa.
    And finally, you know you're Dutch when..

    I noticed you didn't have a video yesterday. Please keep making them in English. Hopefully this little hiccup in the language didn't deter you from making more videos. You are very inspiring ang your command of the English language is amazing!🥰

    Good job Sarah! You have an excellent machine and will learn to bond with it with practice. "Poop" in English. In USA terms, you would be considered a "petite" sized person. I always enjoy your videos.
