    I actually squealed out loud when I saw this podcast notification! My husband (he loves Dan!) and I love your podcasts. You’ve inspired me to walk more and really schedule in some reading time. Thanks so much for taking the time and enormous amount of effort involved to share your “wonderful” life with us over here in the States! 😊

    This is kind of random, but I just love your voice and listening to you. I always feel calm and happy when your episodes are playing and better about myself once they're done. Your encouraging out look and positivity really is a much needed and appreciated a ray of sunshine in my life. ❤ I'm excited to get to hang out every day this week!

    What a treat to have a week of daily vlogs from my friend Ali (I know we have never met) ! I joke with my husband and say that I am going to visit my friend Ali in England when I watch your videos. You have that way about you that makes everyone feel like they are your longtime friend, and we are sharing an afternoon cup of tea. I love the color yarn you are using for your socks, the dark blue is stunning! Looking forward to the week ahead!!

    I've just found your videos and I can't stop watching them! I'm really excited for the sock pattern because that's my name! And it's not a very common name where I live here in Florida in the U.S. Socks are my favorite thing to knit and so I think I'll knit myself a pair as soon as my needles are free. I usually give all my knitting away because I love to give, but this pair will be mine, all mine hahah! Thank you for sharing with us!!

    Hi Ali, how lovely to see you preparing and parcelling up your gorgeous dodgy bag pins. Mine arrived earlier this week and I hesitated to put the message and the pin card in the recycling because I could see how much work had gone into them! They did, of course, end up in the recycling, but all the work you'd done on it, and the care with which you packaged it up was very much appreciated! And the pin is GORGEOUS!!!

    I can't wait for my Dodgy Bag pins to come in! I only recently started collecting pins for my bags and I'm really enjoying that. I finished a pair of socks last night (just vanilla socks so far as the patterned ones scare me!!) and now have the lovely task of choosing yarn for the next pair. Have a lovely day!

    • @LittleDropsofWonderful
      @LittleDropsofWonderful  3 месяца назад

      Oooo I love choosing the next yarn to use! If you feel ready to move on to simple patterns, nothing scary, then Kay Jones of the Bakery Bears has great ones! The Crumpled Socks for example - they’re a really easy pattern and look gorgeous! Hope the pins arrive soon, I saw your name and smiled 😃🥰

      @@LittleDropsofWonderful I had the yarn chosen but this time, I am going to try a custom fit pair of knee-high socks for a friend. I am going to take detailed measurements and try to do increases and decreases so they fit her perfectly Wish me luck!! I've save The Crunkled Socks in my favourites, though. I will, at some point, give them a try.
