Hi Arne and Carlos, I have to say thank you to Arne for your patience to demonstrate Norwegian knitting! By watching your tutorial I knew your way would be easier than continental. It was challenging at first but now I can do it!!! Its nice at 64 to look forward to more years of knitting with hands more relaxed, no sore fingers. Merry Christmas, thanks again for the best gift.👍♥️
Don't worry, I'm sure your balls will continue to be popular for years to come. :-)) Seems to me it's about time the Norwegian government gave Arne & Carlos the title of Living National Treasures, as Japan does for some of its skilled artisans. Certainly you'll always be treasures to your fans!
Arne and Carlos thank your for your summary of the past year and for all the joy you bring to us throughout the year. May you be blest with all good things in the coming year. And all the best to Freya!
Can't imagine anyone complaining about Freja. She's a lovely part of the family & in my opinion adds to the cozyness I feel when I watch your videos.❤ I love hearing her little voice telling you about the "elusive" moose!
Cary Ulmer I totally agree with you! We love Freja!
I’m not a dog person and I love seeing Freja!
We love Freja! Barking is her participation in the podcast!
Yes and her earstyle matches Arne's hairstyle. "Blowin' in the Wind" should be the background music for the photo.
I am such nerd. . . I a re-watching this episode despite the fact y'all are doing daily sit and knit for a bit/advent calendar 2020. . . needed more Arne & Carlos tonight. Can't imagine 2020 without you both. .. Plus you love Dolly Parton. . . treasures all around!
I love your podcasts. Your back and forth about this and that, your travels, your friends and workshop attendees, gardens, museums... .it's all so welcome. Freja has two homes where she is loved and we'll cared for. That is a plus.
I enjoy the Prym dpn for socks and mittens. They have the right amount of grip and slip.
🌟🌠🚌🎿🌉🌺🐩✂💕
Little did we know what 2020 would bring. You take such good care of each other. That is great.
Thank you so much!
Freja is adorable!!! She is part of the family!! Shame on those who complained! Unfortunately, I am like Arne right now, I have a cold and feel pretty yucky. Have a very blessed Christmas!! Love your sweaters! The old photo of you two, wow, what a difference!!!
Hello, Wow Wow 💖💖💖💖💖all your shared photos!!!! 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎅🎅🎅 Thank you both for a wonderful year full of so...….much I will treasure always!!!!!!!!! Bravo Bravo👏👏👏
Thank you for helping the Fukushima area and traveling to Japan! And for spreading the environmental message of helping our great Mother Earth!
Hugs to you all. Freja, too, of course! 💖🥰
Thank you Lisa!
I found it very poignant to watch this video today after watching the 4th of advent 2020 two days ago. So many of your plans for 2020 were upended (as they were for most of us) yet you look back on 2020 with gratitude and grace. Your optimism and creativity is very inspiring. ❤️
I used to live in Longmont, Colorado. What a small world. Love you guys a bunch.
Thank you Daisy!
Panuje mezi Vámi úžasná harmonie a teplo domova, ráda se na Vás dívám. Přeji vše dobré v roce 2020.
Freya's photo bomb is adorable - a wonderful happy picture Carlos :-)
Thank you Anloke!
Merry Christmas! from cape town south africa! thanks so much for the light u have brought into my life!
I love the 15 cm double pointed needles, 3 mm, to knit socks. What a wonderful year you had. Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Love you both, and that precious little pooch Freja.
Her barking didn’t bother me at all. It’s part of life having a dog.
And she adds fun and life.
I have not tried Prym needles but would love to. Thanks for sharing so much of yourselves with us, you are a delight to listen to and learn from.
Thank you et Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for you and your family and friends !
You guys are fun and it's so cool that you have a partner with similar likes to share your creations. I really appreciate the fact that you are NICE and there is no negativity. I love your patterns and that you share a part of your world with us. Kudos.
Thank you for watching.
Arne and Carlos, this is the best present Santa could have given me! I just found your channel. I have your book. Idea Books. I love that book so much. I first found It in the library. Your book cheers my soul. I'm so happy to see you, for real, on RUclips. I send you both blessings for Good Health and much creativity. Health, Happiness and much prosperity in 2020.
Adorable picture of Arne & Freja ~ ❤️ I love seeing and hearing your precious little girl Freja 🐾 on your videos.
Thank you Sandra!
My favorite needles are circular, size 1, 16". Making socks has become my latest addiction. Using two circular needles works best for me. And thanks for all that you and your team do. The podcasts are entertaining and informative.
Jill Smithson I agree, 2 circs and toe up.
The lovely folks at Prym were kind enough to direct me to the Mary Maxim website to order their needles. No stores in North Carolina carry Prym. And now I am knitting my first project with them, a Christmas Pig Ornament. I am using the 4US double points and it is heavenly! I especially love the bulb points. That feature makes it much easier pick up the stitch below and increase. It is like I have rediscovered the love of knitting anew since I found your website and you tube channel plus these needles. Thank you both Arne and Carlos!
I love Freya’s little voice, her bark is always welcome. Merry Christmas and Healthy Happy New Year
Freya is just doing her job and protecting her family. Go Freya! Excited to see what you come up with in 2020. Have a fabulous Christmas 🎄
Hola Chicos un gustó verlos deseó pará ustedes y toda su familia un sinfín de parabienes y que sigamos por mucho tiempo juntos 🤗😘😘😘🤗🤗🤗
I admire you two so much!
I segued back from 2023 to this video. Hearing your travel plans for 2020 and realizing that none of them materialized is sobering. However - it was the quarantine blocks that led me to you.
That was a tough year. But - onward!
Love your sweaters. Feel better Arne.
How on earth can any complain about Freya I miss seeing her I just started so hopefully you will put her on at the end .she is integral part xo
Love listening to her bark! My dogs like her also!
This travel log for the year was so interesting. The two of you are amazing. It must be nice to be home and cuddle with Miss Freya. I did not mind Freya barking at all. She is such a lovely little lady. I am looking forward to all your new adventures and amazing ideas. Sending you wishes for much laughter, prosperity, good health and joy throughout the holiday season and into 2020.
The l o n g bus ride and the bus breakdown was well worth meeting the two of you. In adversity you often meet the loveliest people. It was actually fun in the end....lots of laughs. What better place to be stranded than in a lovely yarn shop🧶.
True!
Watched your 4th advent podcast while cooking the 3rd advent vegetarian dishes! My house smells wonderful. The finished dishes are now in freezer bags.
This podcast was like sitting with you in person. Balls (Christmas ones, Arne), one breakfast B&B, the half naked City of LA, all the yarn shops and flea (Vintage to Carlos) markets, the unexpected long trip with Toronto Knitters Guild, poisonous snake whisperer Arne, sick with a cold Arne (hope the hot drink Carlos will make) helps you recover quicker and so much more!
Thank you and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
For sure, you look much better now on the cover of the book then several years ago. 🤗
Merry Christmas.🎄 and a Happy NewYear. 🍾
Wonderful to hear about your adventures this year. Merry Christmas!
Dear Arne and dear Carlos, thank you so so much (and your team) for all the effort you put on making your videos for us. I absolutely adore waiting for Sunday evening to watch a new video of yours. I would not change a single thing. This year I have learned a lot more about the knitting world and I am looking forward to start new, more challenging, projects. You look so beautiful and perfect. With family and friends sometimes now I say "my life dream is Arne and Carlos life..." because you are so creative and surrounded by these white and wonderful landscapes in winter. With that being said I can imaging how much work it should be so I am very grateful for youtube because without maybe I would have not know you. Glædelig jul og lykkebringende nyt år!! With lots of love from an Italian in Århus. 💖
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you both; your crew ; an love an hugs to freya .I'm 60 on 14 th of this month been knitting 48 years now an you both are such an inspiration to so many ; keep up the lovely work you do ,Kind regards to you both .love your shows.
Happy Birthday in a couple of days Tarah!
I love to knit socks so I like dpns 3mm. Loved the recap of your year. Have fun skiing. Plus, Fria needs to be included barking and all. That’s what dogs do!
I just purchased the Christmas 🎄 Ball book I have 1 ball knit so far! Thank you for sharing your talent!
Frey’s is part of your family. My dog loves hearing Freya bark. He thinks his friend is here,
Arne, I was laughing too!
Say hi to you dog!
Everyone understands (because you have always honest and upfront about scheduling the videos). It’s remarkable you do as much as you do. I appreciate it.
Thanks for sharing so much of your personal stuff - pictures of Freja, vacation, photos, jokes etc -- very sweet of you both! Certainly understand you keeping some stuff personal - but you navigate this quite nicely. Many virtual hugs! Love catching up on your videos now that I have found you!
Feel better soon, Arne. I love hearing the dog barking in the videos!!
You have had a busy, busy year! Thank you as always for sharing your lives and your craft ideas with us. I love seeing and hearing Freja in your videos and imagining her keeping you safe from an elusive moose! I'm glad to hear that there is a trend toward more sustainable yarn manufacturing. It does trouble me the way some superwash wools are processed. Looking forward to more projects and fun in the new year! Cheers!!
Thank you Terry!
Good evening guys lovely to see you both. My you've had a busy year. We just love Freja imagine getting complaints about her barking she's a dog and they bark the moaners need to get real. Sorry your not feeling good Arne get better soon. Comparing the covers of your book I think you have both improved with age. I don't like snakes so your very brave Arne 'The Snake Whisper'. You make our Sundays very interesting the photos are fantastic and you have been all over the world. I would like to say thank you for a wonderful year. I hope I'm here to see you both next Christmas. Have a very Merry Christmas and I wish you both all the best for 2020. Take care look after yourselves love to Freja. Kram
Hello from Melbourne,
What a good idea revisiting the tutorials with Carlos as the demonstrator, and Arne doing the talking...getting away from your natural comfort zone will help beginners. I have the grey DPNs in most sizes but prefer shorter needles these days. Most used size needle is 3.5 mm 80cm. Circular . Merry Christmas!
I always look forward to your video s on Sunday . The prym needles are new to me I would prolly enjoy the circler. Thank you for all you knowledge,have a super holiday .
I really like the waste yarn idea. I once made a blanket out of waste yarn scraps, there were thousands of knots on the reverse side and I lined it with fleece! Its a work of art really, a mass collaboration between designers of yarn and me the fiber artist. I had all these smallish scraps and the colours were so beautiful it reminded me of the sea and sand, shells, sky like a Pointallism type impression painting.
Thank you so much for another wonderful year. Your RUclips episodes are the highlight of our Sunday evening. To think that my non knitting husband never wants to miss an episode says so much for the quality of your channel. We wish you both a really wonderful Christmas. We look forward to 2020 and seeing what else is going to arrive on our screens. Xx
Heart warming 4Th Advent. Glad you arrived home safe & sound. I'm using prym circulars to knit your Gaulte sock pattern for the 2nd time. I never knew about this brand of needles until you talked about it on a previous post. Have an awesome Christmas full of joy, blessings & knitting !
Merry Christmas gentlemen. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us in 2020. Arne hope you feel better soon.🙋
Just like fine wine you both have aged well! Sending Christmas Greetings to you both and Freya. 🌸🙂
Hi ArneCarlos
I like the prym knit pro needles size 4.5.
Loved this flashback on your year 2019. So much packed in those months. Makes me feel very lazy.
Thank you.
I have a circular Prym needle that I love. It's bought in Denmark, and I haven't been able to find it here in Spain. It has balls, where the csble meet the needle. It's brilliant!
Another Prym product I can't recommend enough is their wool needles, instead of an eye, it has a loop. It makes weaving in ends so fast and easy! You weave in the needle plonk in the yarn, and pull. Superb!
I love my Prym circular needles which I used for a pair of worsted lambing mittens. I had purchased them specifically because I wanted to knit on a plane and I figured they would not be a problem with their little bulbous tips. I wasn't sure how they would be to knit with and I actually loved knitting with them! I will definitely add more sizes in the future. Thank you for sharing your trip to North America - we were lucky to see you in St. Thomas, both for the Norwegian class and your lecture on the ice rain day. wishing you both a wonderful 2020!
Just watching this and now I'm so excited about advent coming up!!! Can't wait to see what's going to be in the advent calendar. My brother and I share a calendar each year, our grandmother embroidered little bags for each day years ago. I'm 32, my brother's 24 and my mum still fills our calendar even though we don't live at home anymore. She sends us half of the bags each by post.
Thank you for sharing Charlotte, Christmas is coming.
I love my Prym single point needles. They were gifted to me in US size 6 and are so easy to knit with. God Jul!
Hi and Merry Christmas to you Arne and Carlos! I hope you feel better soon! It’s a rotten deal to be sick during the holidays. Your vids are something I always look forward to, especially since you frequently display your lovely sweaters, whether by wearing or as a talking point.
I’ve never used prym needles but would absolutely love to try them out. I so enjoyed hearing about your adventures in 2019, makes me dream of seeing only a fraction of what you saw. Hope you are feeling better@arne, lots of rest and hot tea and a little fresh air.
Bless you looking after your husband how lovely very caring love sent to you both great videos love all you do.
Hi and thank you for sharing so much of your world with all of us.I just love learning about Norway. I would love to try the Prym needles. I hope both of you and your furbabies have a very Happy Holidays.
So happy you enjoyed your time in my home state of New Mexico. Thank you for sharing your talents around the world. I have only ever used Prym DPNs. I like them very much but the length before was a little too long for comfort. But I am very happy to see they are now making the shorter ones. Arne, hope you feel better soon & can enjoy your ski vacation. Merry Christmas to you both & Happy New Year!
What a busy year gentlemen!
Have a festive Christmas and an excellent 2020.
So glad I came across your channel and became an instant fan of yours!
May 2020 bring you plenty🎄💌🌈🧶
Thank you.
Mountain Momma Crochet by Christina omg 😮
@@terrydickson6468what Terry? Happy Holidays to you and yours. Omg backatcha.🎄🧶💌
I just now viewed your video. How wonderful you came to New Mexico. I live near Albuquerque on an Indian Reservation. Im an avid knitter crocheter. Anyway, I love prym needles. Hobby lobby (local store) had them in 2019 and I bought as many as I could. I love that they have the rounded tip. I love DPNs. best. I started knitting in the late 1980s...but sadly, no knitter in my family...so I taught myself to knit after watching a friend of a friend knit socks in Pennsylvania when I lived on the east coast. She emigrated to the U.S. from Germany. So I thought, dang...I need to learn how to do that! and so ....I love it and wish more people in my Native American community would also do the same...but very few of us. Like looking for moose moose! rarely seen. Thanks for all the information and I love your videos. If ever I get into podcasting....I'd like to interview ya'll.:) but that may be like the rarely seen moose. Have a good year this year!!!
People that attended the St. Thomas lecture all said they were so impressed with how kind and professional you both were altering your schedule while waiting for the Toronto group. You are so wonderful and considerate. And FYI, freezing rain occurs not just in St. Thomas, but in many Provinces and States. Have a lovely holiday ! Happy New Year
Arne and Carlos Feliz Navidad y un Prospero Año Nuevo. It was a pleasure to meet you both in person in St. Thomas, Ontario🇨🇦. Thank you for signing my book😀. And yes freezing rain is the worst! Thank you for another great video. Always look forward to them. I’ve never knitted with Prym needles, will try them. Also a cruise is on my bucket list! By the way I don’t mind Freja’s barking.
I just loved listening to your year in review! May 2020 be your best year yet. You both have inspired me to get my needles out and begin knitting after many years. Thank you so much for all the inspiration. ❤️
It has been a pleasure to watch your videos since I found you guys, I cooked the cabbage , both of them and they were delicious, thanks for those recipes, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, hope Arne feels better soon, looking forward to new episodes next year, enjoy your holiday!
I was on the bus to St Thomas from Toronto. Everything about that day was fabulous. Even the delays! It just meant extra knitting time with knitting friends.
I would love the Prym circulars. Anything from 2.75-4.0mm are in constant use.
Merry Christmas
I really like the set of 3 ergonomic circulars... 32". They are great for my hands that have been hurting with all of my Christmas gifts I've been knitting. You two are great! I just missed you at Yarn! in Vermont. I was there over Thanksgiving holiday visiting my daughter who is attending grad school in Burlington at UVM. Hope your time there was amazing.
I have not knit with Prim needles. I think I would enjoy knitting with a set. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Looking forward to what you bring our way in 2020. 🎄🎄🎄
I’ve been wanting to learn to knit and 2020 is the year so I don’t have a favorite needle yet and would love to learn using these needles. I first heard about gardening in pajamas from my favorite gardening author Sharon Lovejoy as she likes to garden in her nightgown. She writes lovely garden books that involve getting children interested in gardening. Thank you so much for sharing your year and I hope you have a great coming year!
I just returned from Xmas in Mexico to a cold Nova Scotia and am already looking forward to your next year's 4th advent year in review!!
Thank you Jeanine!
Hello Arne et Carlos ! Je vous souhaite de belles fêtes de Noël. Je vous adore et suis tous vos podcasts de très près. J'aime beaucoup ce que vous faites, vos ouvrages sont magnifiques. Cette année j'ai découvert vos boules de Noël et c'est vraiment très addictif. J'en ai offert a mes amies et rempli mon sapin.. superbe ! Bonne guérison a Arne et au plaisir de vous revoir en 2020 pour d'autres aventures.
What an enjoyable 90 minutes. Gosh what an incredible tour but you had to have been exhausted by the end. I'm not a knitter (I crochet)but you have so many artsy crafts for everyone. I made your red cabbage dish for Xmas, excellent. Thx Happy new Year
Thank you for joining us Wendy!
So glad that I discovered you two this year, lots of love and wishes for more success and happiness!!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you both! You've been such a lovely companion to my knitting journey: thank you! I can say now I can knit Norwegian way and with DPNs!!! I'm very proud because I taught myself how to knit, solely by watching RUclips videos: from the English style, to Portuguese and, more recently, the Norwegian. Arne's tutorials have taught me the Norwegian way :) (I even purl!). This is my preferred way. Carlos' journalistic take have taught me so much about Scandinavian culture. I've became really appreciative of this culture, a big fan, I'd say. I think the different roles you both take on have worked really well; but I look forward to the innovations you're planning for next year :)
I watched the end-of-year podcast in parts: a little bit per day. Just finished (hence the belated Merry Christmas wishes). I've never used Prysm, but would love to try! This time, I wouldn't promise to re-gift it to my mother-in-law :) Since I'm still so new to knitting and still finding the equipment that works best for me, I'd keep them :)
My dear....Arne& Carlos❤
Merry Christmas&Happy Holidays🌲🌷
Such a nice video session with you tonight, as I knit away 🧶😍 I purchased my first set of Prym needles last month. They are circular 4.5 mm and I am really enjoying them for my hat project. I am learning German short rows for the first time and the Prym’s give me good control. I also like them because they look like little drumsticks 😊 which reminds me of my dad who is a percussionist 🥁Please keep your wonderful videos coming!
Was very nice hearing all about your wonderful travel adventures. I also love seafood, my favourite food. Great photo's guys. Did Freya enjoy her power walk, I'm sure she did. Arne & Carlos & Freya, wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy & Healthy New Year!
Thank you for another lovely podcast! It's so fun to hear about all your adventures. I received the 55 Christmas Balls to Knit book for my birthday. I am totally hooked on knitting these balls!
Also to comment on the forum needles, I have used no the the double pointed needles (size 3), and the circular size 6. I like the double pointed best because they really hold the yarn well and the white needles make it easier to see the stiches. Happy Christmas!
I like the Prim needles, 3.25mm, that I used to make a Arne & Carlos knitted bird! Merry Christmas!
I would never have guessed when you did videos, but I do know I enjoy every one! Feel well again fast Arne! I hope you both get to enjoy some great skiing!
It sounds like a great year ahead!
Prym needles, I confess I can’t say which I prefer, as I have never had the chance to try them them out!
Love the snow shoes! They look like the ones I used to wear! All leather and wood. Snowshoeing is great fun!
Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!
I haven't tried those needles yet, but would love to. I prefer circulars for most of my knitting because they are easier on my hands. I too love hearing Freya in the background. It makes me feel like I'm right there with you. I loved taking the class on colorwork fingerless mitts at Loop in Philadelphia several years ago. You two are so much fun!
Wow you guys sure travel a lot! This was one of your best podcasts yet! Really enjoyed hearing about where you went! - Wishing you both the BEST of the holiday season from Ontario, Canada!
Get well soon, Arne. I know you can’t miss a speedy recovery with all of Carlos’ good care.
And no doubt my favorite Prym needle was the very first one that I was introduced to on my first evening of knitting a certain special project on the Finnmarken in March 2019. I was immediately given over to the sheer delight of the experience of knitting with it. My passion for these needles and my inventory has grown ever since. DPNs, circulars, and crochet hooks of each and every size. Even the “Yoga” needles. I adore them. And I am so glad that they have become more available in the US since your tour.
Merry Christmas to you both and much continued success in 2020. Peace ✌️.
I really enjoyed your End-of-Year Podcast. Favourite Prym needles 4.00mm circular. Have a festive Christmas.
You are both more handsome now than in your early picture. Love your pod casts and your knitting projects. Thank you for keeping us entertained whilst we have had a horrid 2020. Would love to see pictures of your beautiful Christmas trees. Xx
😊
I love you guys. I hope someday to meet you. I really look forward to the advent calendar. My grandparents were from Sweden, someday I hope to go there. Arne I hope you feel better soon. God Yule❤️
I really love the picture of Freya and Arne. I sit in my garden in my pajamas. I work nights so I knit in my pajamas outside there with coffee. I love your podcast very much. Thank you so so much. Have a very happy Christmas God Bless . xoxox P.S. My sons dog, a Labrador,, name is Freya. She is also very sweet.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Arne I hope you feel better soon. I've been enjoying your Christmas Balls book. Looking forward to your new video's next year.
Merci pour vos vidéos, joyeuses fêtes !
I hope you both and Freya had a very merry Christmas and that you are both well again. Wow what a wonderful year you have had - thank you so much for sharing this brilliant video! I love the straight double points Prym knitting needles size 3.5! Take care guys and love from Australia!!!
My favorite needles would be 1.25mm dpns for knitting socks. Thank you for sharing the details of your 2019 international adventures. I really enjoyed hearing the stories and seeing the photos of all the amazing places you visited. I want to give more than one thumbs up for this video, but RUclips won't let me! 👍👍👍
By the way, I'm excited to make your purple cabbage to go with Christmas dinner. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you!
You guys are rocking those sweaters, I love the prym double points,
Wow...love those snowshoes...I love your podcasts...my fav Prym needles are 4.0 mm circulars...Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
Thanks for a great podcast! I have never used Prym needles, but would love to have the chance. My friend, Carol and I, are joining you for the March cruise and can't wait!
