What a fun podcast!! I've missed you both xx
I've seen that there are studies that show we listen better when our hands are busy. Knitting and doodling are usually mentioned.
It can't be any worse than trying to talk with someone who's busy looking at their phone.
Oh it’s good to see your faces! Now, back to listening!
Lovely visiting with you ladies this morning as I was stitching. I love your videos. I too, Rachel, need to find a name for my chicken. Currently I’m making a red one for my grandson at his request! Look forward to your next toss and anxiously await some FLA linen Aida to arrive in your fabulous store! You may piqued my interest in cricketing those doilies with the yarn from Lori Holt…..I will need to explore this now. ❤❤
I totally understand the need to crochet or stitch as a comfort. I used to feel self conscious about it. I get weird looks or comments from some people but I really don’t care anymore. I have a kit in my car in case I need it. It is a lifestyle for sure. I actually feel sorry for people who don’t know what to do with themselves. 😊
New here but want to say knit we should always feel free to knit
I am a 58 year old woman. Stitching, knitting and crochet are just who I am. I have been crocheting since I was 10. I started cross stitching in the late 80’s. I have been knitting for the last 10 years. I do not care how anyone feels about my need to knit in public. Of course I would never bring my knitting to a formal event (wedding, funeral, really nice dinner), but I bring it in the car all of the time and I bring it to family visits every time. To just sit around with my hands idle is unheard of. That is when my husband knows I am not feeling well.
It was great to see you both. I loved the convo re; “Lifestyle vs. Dabbler” makers. Not that its a competition! But, we are a different breed. We NEED to make things. This has been true for me since my childhood. I have been a Knitter for 40 years. Then, in 2021 i went back to X St and I fell HARD. I had knit too much and hurt my elbows and shoulders ( 👎🥴😬) and so it was great for me to have another crafty hobby (other than spinning, crocheting and weaving, which also hurt my arms.) Now, as mainly a X stitcher, I don’t bring that with me to social events. I think that a knitter should always be able to bring vanilla knitting with them to non business events. It centers and settles us. Other ppl don’t understand that. Please continue the convo- it is very interesting and essential for us. Thank goodness for FT! We can have a virtual crafty tribe! 🙏
Yay, so glad to see you ladies back....I've definitely missed you! You guys have left a big hole in my morning workout "playlist" while you've been away! Was hoping that Mary Morgans would make an appearance as you both inspired my start on her but I love listening to your conversations and seeing whatever you are working on. I hate to even bring it up, but....I've also been wondering if Sue's Ann Grimshaw has ever been located?? Ugh! Hope to see you ladies again soon!
I carry my craft with me, and then read the room. I crochet, knit a little and cross stitch.
None of my friends or family members knit or cross stitch. They think it’s rude to bring knitting to a gathering. One friend crochets so she gets it. Today I am casting on a sweater and it will become an obsession.
HAPPY, happy, happy to see the podcast today. Thanks.
I usually gauge whether knitting is appropriate, by whether others could look at their phone in the same scenario. I actually don't really like others asking about my knitting, which I need to get over, so perhaps sometimes I knit on the sly in public. But always unabashedly during sports games!
Good idea about whether others could look at their phone!
Your excitement caused me to try to knit a sweater. I have started over for the 3rd time but I’m determined to finish it!
I knit quite a bit and have made many sweaters. This summer I started the same sweater 4 times. Don’t be upset. It’s worth it to have a sweater that fits. I hope you have someone to commiserate with you. A friend of mine and I sometimes rip out projects for each other. It’s easier to get restarted once the pain is over.
You can do it! That first sweater is isn’t meant to be perfect 😍
Hey Pals, it's wonderful hearing your voices ❤
So glad to see you both……..miss you ❤………love the energy. So many things I want to do. 😊😎
Very happy to see youse...made my day. Thanks.
How can we get on a list for when you ill restock your Millstone Aida 16 count. So many colors I love are sold out. 🥲
Sue says she will be dyeing more fabrics later this summer. Best way to stay in the loop is here and the Treehouse Fiber Arts Newsletter. You can sign up on the website here: treehousefiberarts.com
Always acceptable to knit .
Never acceptable for a husband to tell me not to knit.💕🧶
