Vlog: Yarn Shopping Inspired by Books
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 ноя 2019
- Shopping for Shetland yarn at Loop, a knitting shop in Islington, after reading and enjoying several books about knitting. A little Christmas shopping thrown in too! Books mentioned are linked below (click show more). Please note: whenever possible, I link books to the Blackwell's website, as I believe in supporting independent and small chain bookshops.

Oh how lovely that you came to Islington. Albeit a few years back. Have you come back since? Loop is a lovely yarn shop and I grew up just a five minute walk from there. As I look after dad a few days a week (in my childhood home)I will often have a walk up to Camden passage in the Angel as I have been since I was little. We have quite a few book shops around here too. Please do come back to visit. Love your channel 💗
Knitting and Books ❤I’m in heaven ❤
And gorgeous shopping… bliss
I loved this video! It’s so nice that you combine chats with outings - a real treat for someone not in London. Although you’re focussed on books, I would love to see a video about your clothing style too :)
You are a wonderful ambassador for everything charming and beautiful in London, Your lovely videos make my day happy 🇬🇧🌺
That's such a lovely thing to say - thank you! So glad you're enjoying my videos :) xx
Dear Miranda, I really enjoyed your day, It was like I was there with you picking your beautiful presents and talking about knitting and how useful it is ! Thank you very much my dear, keep telling us your stories !
I'm so happy to hear that - thank you :) xxx
I absolutely love this video , specially the part you show us the store and the dessert you eat ! Adorable . The music is fun also .
Thanks so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it :) That cake was pretty amazing!
Oh, I love Scott Joplin!!! Thank you for that! 🎶
Miranda, thank you so much for your inclusion and lovely words about my book!
I knit London Waterloo Cut I began knitting nattering in the wonderful wool shop!
I really enjoyed this video, and your book recs. I am actually re-reading KNITTING YARNS because it is one of my happy places & since I am reading such hard-hitting books, it's stories help me get in a better mood.
I'll listen to your podcast and the interview, because I'm really interested in THE GOLDEN FLEECE.
I'm going through all of your videos, & am falling in love with everything you are recommending. I feel like you represent perfectly my tastes.
Thank you so much for your videos.
;)
Really enjoyed this as well as your podcast interview. Thanks for the book recommendations and trip to Loop and surroundings😁!
Thank you very much! So glad you enjoyed the interview too xxx
OMG I went to this shop a couple of years ago and just loved it. I do not knit, I crochet. 🧶This vid made me want to be in London. I really like your videos.
You are so inspiring! Thanks for showing us all these pretty things!!
Thank you for the lovely comment!
Hi Miranda. I like to crochet, so the yarn shop was lovely! I would have spent a fortune! Can't wait to see what you make, so please share your progress. Lovely video!!!
Loved this! I’ve also read Esther’s book and enjoyed it tremendously. And Purls of Wisdom is a treasured book too. I also love Laine and am delighted that it’s starting up again! I also love how so many of my favourite writers from the mid-20th century mention knitting frequently; Elizabeth Taylor, Barbara Pym, Angela Thirkell etc...
I loved Rutter’s book! I just reviewed it on my channel along with Vanishing Fleece. I can’t wait to go listen to your interview! Your knitting project is going to be lovely.
Oh I'll have to check out your review! Thanks so much; I'm looking forward to starting it xx
I love the jumper you are wearing!
Hi Miranda, I’ve just discovered you and your wonderful channel ! I very much enjoy your little chats and becoming inspired by the your enthusiasm & the passion you share with us about books. I would literally die without a book in my hand! 😂📚 Keep posting! From ❤️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thank you so much! 😊📚💕
Really looking forward to reading Golden Fleece!
😀💕xx I’m thrilled that you are a knitter Miranda. I have the book this Golden Fleece. I’m really enjoying watching your vlogs whilst knitting. I have an extensive knitting book collection, mostly used and have some of the books you showed.
love your outfit Miranda .............love the topic of this VLog xx
Thank you so much Anita! xxx
Yes, it that a handmade sweater? I guess "jumper"(?) in your world?
Loved this Miranda, thank you.
Ann Hood has edited another book of essays on knitting - Knitting Pearls. And a novel too called The Knitting Circle. All highly recommended!
