See you again soon for a vlog xx
Can you finish the Sophie with the yarn you have and then over dye the entire thing? I love the lace socks you’ve started.
Lovely to have you back, and reminded me how much I like to knit to podcasts, so I’ve dug out my cardi wip and got myself all excited about autumn and got my knitting mojo back. Thanks Susie! ✨ 🍂 🕯️ 🧶 xx
How lovely to watch you for the first time - your podcast came up as a recommendation on my RUclips feed! It was altogether very gentle and natural, and a real dose of relaxation for me. I loved hearing about your camping memories and your little piece on Brambly Hedge, as well as seeing your beautiful work. I hope you will podcast again soon, but in the meantime I shall probably go back in time and catch up on some older ones. Thank you!!
Easy to watch all the way to the end. You are just so lovely!❤
I love the camp blankets. I’m going to make for my grandkids. Ty for the wonderful idea.
First time finding and watching - what a lovely podcast - I have subscribed 🥰
From one of your new subscribers... nice video. Thank you.
Suzanne
Lovely to see you again . I have always enjoyed your podcasts. Well done for the wholesale side of your business 😊
First time viewing your channel. Lovely podcast. I really loved the chocolate plant pot.
Such a lovely podcast. First time watching. Looking forward to watching more. I would continue the Sophie scarf with the variegated yarn ready to go. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Lovely to watch your podcast. Have ordered my advent, very excited. The county patches is a brilliant idea, my family enjoy camping too. Xx
So sooooo delighted to see your face today! I've really missed our catchups. I'd like the shawl with 2 definite colors...very chic. Xx
First time watching your podcast, love the pastels.
Hi Suzie So Good to see You back. Go with the Ombré for the Sofie Scarf, it was my favourite mini in the Advent, once you wrap it around your neck the shades will look Lovely. So Happy to hear All is going Well for You All. Afternoon Tea at The Ivy…That’s Special. xx❤
Yaaaaah !!!!!!!!!!! Oh I am SO happy to see you Susie, and have this wonderful visit !!! You have been VERY missed. Fabulous knitting , sewing , creating. I have your 2020 Advent , and would highly recommend marring the two yarns together. I think the scarf would be bath interesting and beautiful. SUCH sweet videos of Adorable Fergus - have missed him as well. Just terrific that you are camping and making memories like this. Of COURSE I would stay till the end - wouldn't miss a second. Take care sweet friend. All the best, marcia
Wonderful to see you here again 🥰 I always love your makes, and that blanket poncho for Gus was adorable 👌
I want to make a little bag for my Mia because she loves to carry her maileg mice around 😅 Xx Maria
Nice to see you podcast again, I love your backdrop!
The camping hoodie is such a lovely idea.
I had your 2020 advent on DK, I made a Dotty crochet blanket and just finishing a Polygon blanket. I would use the yarn you already have for the Sophie scarf, as it's so similar and such a lovely colourway 💕
I think we all watched until the end. Who would stop half way through. You have such a lovely relaxing podcast. I was making elderberry/blackberry pie while watching you. So it struck me funny that you were talking about blackberry hedgerows.
Hi Susie of course I watched until the end ,it’s lovely spending time with you! I would definitely colour block your Sophie scarf ,style it out with a design feature😂.I will be checking out the Brambley Edge club ,I am a fellow fan and I adore your fabric choices .
Enjoyed your vlog very much. Go the the variegated yarn to finish scarf. 🐱
Such a lovely podcast Suzie You have inspired me to get moving : ) Thank you! About your Sophie scarf, would you consider unraveling back to the mid-point then start knitting with that lovely variegated yarn you already have wound up? When it's tied around your neck I suspect it would look charming
Lovely to see you back, I really enjoy your podcasts. Regarding your Sophie scarf I would frog back to the decreases and use the variegated yarn. I’m looking forward to seeing it finished as it’s on my list of things to do! I loved seeing your little boy walking in the field, he reminds me soo much of my son, now 21!, when he was little. Treasure and enjoy him, they grow up way too fast. My daughters off to Uni in two weeks and it seems like last year she started nursery. 😢Love your idea for the camping blanket, I smiled when you talked about guides/brownies, I was both and still have my camping blanket. It’s very tatty, but loved. Thank you for such a lovely podcast, I look forward to the next one. X
Ooh, I have a Persian x Ragdoll too! And I'm a primary school teacher 😊
Lots of lovely makes Suzi. I would continue the Sophie Scarf with the yarn you have I’m sure it will blend nicely. I was never a camper but my parents bought a caravan when they retired and took my children with them on Caravan Club weekends and summer holidays. They loved it and now they take there children camping too. My son Mathews' middle name is Augusta (chosen by his golf mad Dad!!), and he hated it when he was young, but now his nieces call him Gus and Uncle Gussy and he loves it 🙂
Hello Suzie. I so enjoyed your podcast- you certainly had me at Brambly Hedge. As far as your Sophie scarf goes, would a 20g mini in your main colour be possible to finish? Even if there is some variation, it wouldn't be at all noticeable once the scarf is tied. I have made several of these and I think another in your signature blush pink would be so flattering against my skin.
A lovely podcast as always! missed you. All your makes are so adorable. I am going to have a go at the sophie scarf! Maybe go with the ombre one to finish your one. I'm sure it will look amazing as your colours are beautifully pastel! and won't look out of place. I love the jumper you knitted for Gus! xxxxx
First time viewing and very much enjoyed your lovely natural approach. Gus is beautiful and so lucky to have a dolly, next thing is to have a tea set in the bath....my boys loved that, along with my dolls house which they used as a multi story car park for a while. Gorgeous jumper for Gus❤️
I think you should do the Sophie Scarf variegated, it will be beautiful 😍
Lovely podcast! With the Sophie shawl, I would try to dye up some more, if it doesn’t look right you could always knit a pair of Dk socks with it 😆💗
Hi Suzie it’s great the hear from you again. I would go with the variegated colour myself as I think it will look interesting.
I’m having such a lovely time catching up with podcasts! Patch still uses his camping blanket, and we still buy a fabric patch for me to sew on from the places we visit…
Great to see you back, I really enjoyed the podcast. The jumper you made for Gus is lovely and the camping blanket is adorable. A great idea putting the patches on to show the places you camped. If it was me making the Sophie scarf I would take it back to the centre point and then add the ombre yarn. That would then look like the 2 different colours were intentional. X
It was lovely to see you back again. I missed you and all your beautiful makes and your beautiful yarn. It amazes me that you actually get time to do any videos at all with all the other things you do. It’s lovely to hear of your family camping trips and giving Gus those opportunities to make wonderful happy and carefree memories that both you and your husband had as children. And it’s beautiful to see you enjoying the simple pleasures of life with him picking fruit. You’re so right. He is so cute.
I think for the Sophie scarf I’d try dyeing up more yarn and if that doesn’t work then use the yarn already wound up in the ball. 😊
Just found your beautiful vlogg, lovely.😊🤗
Lovely to see you again Suzy and making some beautiful creations love the jumper you made for your little boy. Love the Sophie scarf I would add the ombré yarn can not wait to see what you decide to do x
I would be tempted to use the slightly different colour for your Sophie scarf, but take the knitting back to the beginning of the decreases. Then it would look intentional. You were showing your little boy's camp blanket...our 3 girls each had little walking sticks and we collected badges that you hammer on. They still have them and still talk about the places we went. Now they are old enough to share those memories with their own children❤
Lovely to see you back, I know what you mean about being shy speaking in person. I am wanting so much to do a podcast about my knitting and crochet adventures but I am shy and don’t think people would watch, I just need to pluck up the courage to do one my husband even bought me a camera to encourage me but it is still in the box😊. Maybe this year will be the year I try. Looking forward to your next one ❤
I just thought you would like to know Susan my daughters name is Susan and we also we’re camping damn lady I drove a 27 foot travel trailer many states away and over the years and my children are all grown up now but I have great memories of my son is a Ranger that he learned everything from camping so just thought you’d like to know we all head camping jackets I have I still have my daughter has mine in the storage I believe and if I can get her to get it out I would love to have you see it. It’s a Plymouth county campgrounds I believe I forget my husband was a prison guard and he worked at that camp with the dinner with the goods and just so you know, I& I never saw you want to be in I’ll be happy to do it, John you too my repertoire😊
I might also and we had five children for boys and a girl had a great time zone is every year😊
Lovely to see you back, I don’t know how you manage it all! Sorry to hear about your Nannas xx
Great to see you back. You'd be a natural at a yarn show; your yarns are beautiful and you're very warm and welcoming. Perhaps there is a small one day event near you where you could try putting your toe in the water? But they can be overwhelming and as far as I can see very hard work as well, especially for a young Mum with a toddler. Perhaps something for the 'one day' list?
Thank you so much for the quick response :-) I have placed my order.
Lovely podcast. its great to see you back. I always love the pastel shades of your yarn when I am next in York i shall take the opportunity to go squish
It was so lovely to see you back Susie. Depending on whether you can hide the scarf under your hair, will the colour change really be that noticeable?
So nice to find your podcast! Hello from Sweden 🇸🇪.
I would - by which I mean, in the past I chose to - rip back to the halfway point, then add in the variegated yarn. Then you'd also have the option of using the little bit of tonal leftovers to add a stripe to make it look even more deliberate.
I ran out of yarn on my Sophie Scarf and went with a contrast. I've knit three of them and they are all different. Thanks for sharing your makes.
The blanket will be a fabulous keepsake for Gus as he gets older.
So lovely to see you back. I am quite close to York so will definitely go and have a look at your beautiful yarns. 😊
So lovely to see you back. I am quite close to York so will definitely go and have a look at your beautiful yarns. 😊
I met you and your mum at the yarn dispensary you were both amazing and your yarn colours were fabulous hope to see you there again sometime soon hopefully ❤
I just happened on to your podcast and you are quite lovely to watch and listen to. I am now a new subscriber. With the scarf, I would use the one you have wound up. It will be a suttle but lovely progression. ,
Lovely podcast and the jumper you made for your little one is fab, I am hoping to be able to order an advent!
I would take Sophie back to the center and use the variegated!
I,ve missed you ,hope i can have your wool for my birthday the colours are mmmmwow
It's so lovely to see you again! I always enjoy your video's. So soft and gentle. Hope to see you soon again ❤
Lovely to see you back Gus looked like he loved picking the berries
Just carry on a negative sample good
So nice to see you again and so enjoyed your makes, especially that cute little sweater!

I enjoyed your nice video. The projects you made for Gus are so beautiful and made with love. I'm in love with Gus' sweater, beautiful. I love your beautiful yarns and the colors.
Lots of love Adiëlla 🐻🩷🌸
Thank you so much Adriella 🥰 always so lovely to hear from you! 💕
Lovely! Wonderful podcast. Thank you!
Thank you so much! 🥰
My first time finding your channel, love your beautiful blush shades
Thank you so much Sarah 💕
You are very busy so I’d use the caramel latte yarn, it won’t be so noticeable when you are wearing the scarf
Thank you Ashley! I certainly am 🫣😁💕
Lovely catch up and fond memories of Brambly Hedge
Hi Cath! Oh thank you 🥰 did you read it too? Such sweet books!
Happy Anniversary 🎉 loved the Bramley Hedge books too x
Thank you so much Caroline! 10 years has flown by 🥰 Oh they are so lovely aren’t they? X
Great to see you back, wow Little Gus has grown so much!. Here in New Zealand when I was a young girl we used to get felt patches /flags of the different cities in NZ and they could be sewen onto blankets, (mine went on my girl guide blanket) the boys/men would either hang the flags on their bedroom walls or attach to aerials on their cars.
Thank you! He has really grown up, such a sweet little boy now! Oh wow, that sounds so lovely 🥰
Just found you on RUclips enjoyed the podcast. Gus blanket is so cute. ❤ the ivy looked amazeing xx
Hi Karen! So glad you found me 🥰 oh it was so lovely. It was a gift from the parents at school where I teach and we decided to have it as a treat for our 10th anniversary 💕
Lovely to see you back again. I keep saying I must make a Sophie scarf but as yet it keeps getting pushed down the list of makes. Can't believe your little boy is 2 years old, time goes by so quickly. It was lovely seeing him enjoying picking fruit. Love Marion xxx
Hi Marion! So nice to hear from you. Oh I definitely recommend it, it’s a very simple knit. I know, he’s growing up so fast. It seems like only yesterday I was showing him in here for the first time and he was just a tiny baby! Xxx
Regards your sofie shark how about frogging back and making the small version.
Scarf 🥺
Hi Suzeette, this is Marion Jay from the USA in Massachusetts and I just wanted to know how much to belong to the club I think you called it in the fall like after the item I just like that material that you had for the bag and that I’m making bags but with my eyes being so bad that they’re not the quality is not very good because I’m just keeping busy but anyway and then it came with four of those little shanks so whatever you call them of love you and I don’t have a wind or anything so I would otherwise buy the big one of the four ply because that would probably be on a scan however, I’d like to know how much it is for the one time with the bag in the ends and and also if I didn’t get that I would’ve the if I got in the you know the before Christmas day on the can’t think of the name now, but you know the 25 days How much would that be for the end? Like just let me know I wanna have an idea and see if I could swing it. Thank you my dear and I love watching the things you’re doing a wonderful job MEGAN things keep up the good work and say hi to THE BABY and THE keep smiling. Oh yeah, one more thing Susie change music. It’s a little down and made a little pep in there OK thank you 0:58

So glad you are back. Love the wrist warmers. Such squishy yarn
Thank you so much Marie! Oh the yarn is just lovely 🥰
Just discovered your podcast… loved it! I would suggest frogging back to the midpoint of the scarf and use the variegated….. will all tone in better when being worn!
Thank you Jan! So glad you found me 💕
Hi, Susie! It’s so good to see you. I love the fabric that you have chosen for the autumn and Christmas clubs. I love the sweater that you knit for Gus. The dolly bag is cute. The camping blanket is also cute. I suggest that you dye the yarn on your needles to match the new colour❤
I like the yarn that you are using for the lace socks. Take care, Suzie… I’ll see you when I see you❤️
Hi Carol
Oh thank you so much for your kind words 🥰 💕 so lovely to hear from you!
Hi- Is it possible to order the Brambly Hedge Christmas offering on it's own? I am not signed up for the club for each month but would love to have the Christmas set if possible. Thanks so much!
Hi Ann
Yes absolutely. Here’s the link to the Brambly Hedge page, you can click on the Christmas listing from there ☺️

Lovely to see you and your makes Suzie. Your jumper for Gus is so gorgeous 💕 He must look super cute in it. I think try the yarn you have for your Sophie scarf - once it’s finished and being worn it will look really pretty.
Hi Zoe! Thank you 🥰 I can’t wait to see him wearing it. We will have a little try on session soon once it’s blocked! 😁 I think I will add the yarn I’ve got wound up!
Hi Suzie. Enjoyed your podcast, as always. We had a big trailer tent when the kids were small, so much fun.
Gus is so tall now ❤
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! Oh he is just so big isn’t he? Time flies and they grow so fast. Camping is such fun as a family 🏕️ 💕
It’s so so lovely to see you back! I’m also looking forward to autumn 🍂 as well. Excited to see what’s to come for your shop xx
Hi Jennie! Ah thank you!! 🥰 Ooh it will be here before we know it 🍂 xx
Very glad to see you back . Have just purchased your bag pattern and the video will definitely help . Thank you, Your son is so gorgeous ❤
Hi Gillian! Oh thank you so much 🥰🥰
Lovely to see you again 💗 I’m not sure what I would do with your scarf, but I’ve no doubt, it’ll be beautiful however you finish it 🌸 I’m looking forward to seeing it%!
Thank you Joanne! I went with the variegated, I’m not 100% sure it was the I right choice 🫣 but I will show it on my next podcast soon and you can let me know what you think! 💕
So lovely to see you back podcasting - have missed your lovely podcasts! For the Sophie scarf I would die up and mini skein and then fade it in. Xx
Hello 🥰 oh thank you! That’s a good idea, I hadn’t thought about fading it in… hmm! Xx
Thank you Suzeette for the tour of your backyard and around town. That’s very nice of you. I really appreciate it. I love to see where you live in so if it’s nice and thank you so much for just being normal in the I hope that I can get another one you’re close I can do much anymore because my eyes are so bad. I have macular degeneration so however I am selling a bit. I didn’t made some Raggedy Ann
Hi Marion
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment, it really makes my day 🩷
I’m so sorry to hear of your health struggles.
Good morning Susie, this is Marion Jay from the USA. I live on Cape Cod and elderly woman that I’ve done a lot of things and yeah yeah life sounds like mine was when I was young with THE, but we had five children for the boys and a girl and we camped all the time my husband was a person good and we camped at the Kent, where he works at Anna did that every time I were a lot of fun and I need it all the clothes in the back to school and Easter and Christmas and, I was a homemade Irish dance dresses for businesses and I also and did embroidery for the high school all the jackets in a lot of things but now I’m pretty much slow down. I have a macular degeneration can’t do much anymore but I think we could be friends and you could help me and maybe I could help you a little so I’m enjoying your videos and we’ll see how it goes so thank you so much you look like a lovely lady
Hi Marion
So lovely to have you here 💕 loved hearing about your past and the fun trips you got up to with your family! 🥰
Great to see you back. I would go rogue on the Sophie scarf and take it back a few rows then stripe in a different colour altogether. Love the idea of a patch for every county on Gus' blanket. Such a wonderful memory.
Ah thank you 🥰 ooh that is a lovely idea. Thank you, he really loves his blanket, so excited to add more patches!
Great to see you back. You have got me all excited for Autumn. Love all your knits. xxx
Thank you 🥰🥰 ooh I’m glad to hear that 🍂 it’s right around the corner now! Xxx
Just found your podcast and loved it! With your Sophie scarf i would just change the colour at the half way point, that way it would look intentional!
Hi Karen! I’m so glad you found me 🥰 thank you! I’m glad you say that as I’m definitely leaning more towards that… mainly because the yarn is already wound 😁🤭
Lovely to see you again. The end was lovely. Thank you for showing us your wee corner of the world. I’ve only been to England once and it was beautiful.
Hello again 🥰 thanks for watching! Ah that’s so kind of you. Where did you visit in England? There are lots of lovely places to see, perhaps I could do some sightseeing videos? 💕
I really enjoyed hearing of your plans and seeing your beautiful yarn. Can’t wait to see what you do with your Sophie scarf. My children are older now but we used to go camping a lot when they were younger. Great memories!
Ahh thank you so much! 🥰 camping is so fun! 💕 🏕️
Another lovely podcast your yarn colours are so delicate and feminine. I love the Sophie scarf I have made a half and half version putting a contrast colour at the half way mark.
Hi Stephanie 💕 ah thank you so much, that’s so lovely of you to say. Ooh that sounds gorgeous 😍
Great to see you back! I have missed your videos! For your scarf dilemma I would try out the yarn you already have and see how you like it, you can always rip it out and dye some yarn later if you end up not liking the way it looks. Looking forward to your next video already! Take care x
Hi Abi! Thank you 🥰🥰 ooh that is true! I’m definitely going to try out the variegated yarn and see how it looks. Thank you ☺️ xx
Try the variegated yarn for your scarf. Your work is lovey, and enjoy your show. Thank you. 52:34
Thank you Jasmine! 💕
Hello, long time no see, you look well. Lovely to catch up on all things going on. I would use the other yarn from the half way point on the Sophie scarf, it'll look like a great design feature 🙂
Hi Debbie! Oh thank you so much. I think I will do that 🥰
So nice to see you again! The Sophie Scarf is one of my favorite quick knits. Lovely podcast as usual. 😊❤
Lovely to see you back Suzie. I can’t believe your little Gus is 2! Where did that time go 🙈
Thank you Debbie! 💕
So lovely to visit with you🌸 thank you so much for sharing
Thank you for watching 🥰
A lovely podcast as always. Glad things are going well!
Thank you so much Jennifer 💕 hope you’re keeping well!
