- Welcome everyone! Thanks for hanging out with me for a bit- this is a long one- no apologies- lots to talk about. It also took a while for me to get it edited and uploaded- technical issues on my end.
I am so glad that it all came together. Please like and subscribe so that you don't miss any of my shenanigans.

As always if I have forgotten anything let me know and I will get back to you.
I really enjoyed hearing about your family heirlooms. What wonderful stories and memories.
Also enjoy seeing all your knits and to see that you are keeping the yarn stores in business 😉 thanks for sharing. Take care.
Thanks for stopping by- I do believe that yarn shopping is a separate hobby from knitting- hence the need to invest. LOL
Travel knitting is all ready! Looking forward to some front porch knitting! Love your podcast!
I can hardly wait!!!!
I loved your sentimental story. A lot.
Thanks. I think it is important to know where you come from.
Thanks for your time. I always enjoy your podcasts. Great to see you again!
Thanks for stopping by for a visit b
I loved your stories about your knitting needle holder and the old blanket. It is so important that we remember our heritage and that is one reason that fast fashion is so destructive. I have a chest of drawers in my bedroom that my grandad made as his first piece as an apprentice joiner in 1912. I love it.

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I do try to be a thoughtful crafter and shopper.
I had a lovely afternoon knitting away and spending time with you. Love all your projects and acquisitions especially the ones from the bargain bin. 💕
I can’t resist a great bargain and that wool needs a home too. 😂. Thanks for stopping by
I agree with you on the blanket story...I'm a quilter and hope someday they will be passed along to others (family or whoever) that can appreciate and enjoy them. Thanks for sharing. Overall I love your content.
Thanks for stopping by! Sharing things with a story is fun and items like well made quilts and wool blankets should last for generations if properly cared for. I hope to see you on my front porch again!
It is so funny you say you knit vanilla socks but I remember following you and being amazed about the variety of socks you make. Remember the monthly sock patterns?? I love the thoughtfulness you use when you shop. And your 🧶 🥰🥰. Thanks for catching up and be well!
I loved doing those monthly patterns. I do enjoy more complex patterns but I do like them to be easier to remember. Too complex and I have to refer to the pattern too much. New techniques are always fun thiugh
Lovely podcast. Always very enjoyable. I also have gotten wool from biscotte in Quebec City. Got it at knit city Montreal last year. Love that drive between New Brunswick and where I live outside Montreal. Take care.
Enjoy your stories❤️
Thank you. They are the fabric of my life. Thanks for stopping by.
Loved your podcast and projects....😀
Thanks for stopping by!
Good morning from Ontario. I've just watched half, so far...I'll watch the other half a bit later. As I'm watching, I'm knitting with Lion Brand Cotton Jeans for the first time. I've had it for over a year to knit the Autumn League. One day, I was watching a podcast, and they were knitting the Outline Raglan....I was so inspired that I cast on right away with the Cotton Jeans....I'm loving it!
Thanks for stopping by- I had to check out that pattern and I think that Cotton Jeans would be perfect for that- you can always buy more for an Autumn League.- where in Ontario are you?
