I my gosh I love my two northern Canadian ‘sisters’! You gals are so genuine. And thank you for showing the rest of us how wonderful friendship with your sister can be!
JODI, you are WEARING 👏🏾 THAT 👏🏾 SWEATER 👏🏾 ma’am! The color, the collar… the glasses… the hair... 🤌🏾
I know, right?! Jodi is looking on point!!! 🧶👓🦺🔥🍂🍁
So polished❤
Agreed!! That color is gorgeous on you Jodi!❤
Which pattern is the turtleneck? It’s so perfect!
Never mind. Got it!
You two put so much joy in our world. This particular show has made me feel the excitement of being a knitter. Thank you!
You guys are sooo much fun!! Love knitting along with you. Susan from Ash & Eve is such a beautiful person and her yarns are just gorgeous!!
Always fun! Thank you both and thank you soooo much for the shout out again. Jodie - love all of your swatches. Gorgeous! Kits too! Crazy and so exciting!!! Thanks a million and see you both at CakePalooza!
What a delightful morning I have had, knitting my sweater and watching this podcast! You are jewels in this knitting world and your enthusiasm for our craft is so delightful … thank you for your podcast! You guys are the best of the best!!!!
Sending love to Denise ❤❤
GGs you bring laughter, happiness and inspiration to so many people! Have a great time at Rhinebeck!
Jodi- you look gorgeous. I now want to knit the Turtle Dove! The yarn, color, everything looks terrific! Your skin is a beautiful ad for Skyrizi. They need to have you as a model. Love you. You were my sister’s fav. We met you at Stitches West in 2017. She died in 2022. You were so gracious and she talked about it all the time. You are in my favorite memories.
Hi ladies, thank you for keeping me company while I wind the yarn so I can start the starry, starry night sweater by Beth MacDonald Stone. Love the beautiful yarn and sharing all yarny goodies. I bought the night and day cowl too 🤦🏽♀️😘😘😘😘
💗💗 hearts for Denise. Thank you ladies. Have a great time on your travels. See you next time. 😊
Sending hugs and kind thoughts to Denise!!! I love these ladies too!! Their energy feels great!
Tracey and Jodie, I have got to tell you this hilarious story and its true. I live in Maryland first of all. Since I watch your blogs all the time and I always heard you talk about Magpie, I thought ( no I'm not crazy...just almost) the yarn shop of my dreams was located in Canada. Too make this story more bizarre, I am a world traveler thanks to the US Navy for 20 years. Don't travel much now that I am 72, but no excuse for not be aware of my own surroundings. When I heard you were coming to Frederick, Md. to visit Magpie Fibers, I dropped my coffee cup with coffee in it just howling with laughter at myself. Found the number to the store, called, and the sweetest lady's voice welcomed me to the store. I welled up inside, relayed my story that if hadn't been for you two ladies, I wouldn't have known where to find them. She was so gracious and explained you two would be in Maryland come October. I told her that I didn't care about the Grocery girls (not true but I was so excited), I was just excited in finding the yarn store of my dreams. Tracy and Jodie I didn't get tickets, but I'm just 56 miles away. You guys can come see me lol. Ms. Jo
Same! I live 45 minutes away, i need to explore my own town! Be careful of Washington DC traffic GG - crazy drivers and non stop back ups
Denise 💚💖💙💛🧡🖤🤎🤍🩷🩵🩶! Love you guys and great episode. Happy creating 💚🧶💚
I love you guys, and will try to be at ANY live podcast I can. Thanks for all the joy you bring to all of us, including Denise! Best wishes to you Denise!!! ❤
Lovely knits and yarn showcase as always.
I was out of the country recently and missed all your fundraising activities, but I do contribute to the cause in my own way as I have lost a few friends that way.
Congratulations Jody on your anniversary. We just celebrated our 50th and received a congratulatory note from JT. 🤭
If you are still looking for round and round knitters, I can help out. It's Hallmark movie season and I am just south in the land of the Best of Bridge ladies.
Have fun in Maryland and the New York Sheep and Wool Festival. Can't wait to see what you acquire. Safe travels.
Best thoughts to Denise. ! Thanks to you wonderful sisters for this episode.
We will be 19 years next week! Second time for us too. Go out to dinner, celebrate, and Bravo to you both!
You both look beautiful as always. Jodi, that sweater and color look fantastic. ❤
Jodi!!! Your sweater, in that color with that neckline…best you have ever worn. Gorgeous on you!!!
We absolutely should celebrate the happiness of a marriage anniversary! Especially one of that length - congrats and have the happiest day together!
How are Heather and Kathy in Frederick?
Sending Denise much strength and healing vibes. ❤
You will LOVE Magpie Fibers. The space is very cool and their yarns are, as you know, to die for.
Late watching but sending hearts of love to Denise and wishes for speedy healing!
Thank you for podcasting loved it. Great podcast. Can't wait for that book
Wishing you the best Denise ❤️❤️❤️
Spilled queso & stuff on your sheets…it was a good day! Haha! 😂 Love you Jodi❤
Have a wonderful time at Magpie. I was lucky enough to be at a wedding in that area and my husband and I went to Magpie. It is such a gorgeous store! I am just finishing a sweater made in their Quartet worsted in Hot Tamale. It is stunning yarn! Love you girlies.
Lol, Tracie, I love your embroidery kit but I think you need an intervention, bwahahaha! 😂 Love you, my friend. ❤
I wish Jodi was my next door neighbour because everyone needs a good laugh! She cracks me up😂
Love your sweater Jody! It's just gorgeous@
Love your podcast. I hope you do amazing for breast cancer. I do have a couple women in my family who survived it and I am thankful for those who advocate for it. I also have two cousins who lost their battle with ovarian cancer and I don't know anyone who advocates for it, so it is my passion to do it in their memory. Ovarian cancer is surivivable if caught early, but sadly because there are few symptoms it is often caught in late stages. I hope one day we can raise as much awareness for ovarian cancer as we do for breast cancer. Good luck with your fundraising and thank you for being passionate enough to do so. ♥️
I have to say, Tracie, your entire outfit is just gorgeous today!!!
I'm just getting around to trying the Jones Road miracle balm you ladies were going on about ages ago.
Happy anniversary Jodi!
Love Jodi’s sweater! Color is great
To both of you and Denise: ❤❤❤
How did I only just find this fabulous channel? Lots of watching to catch up on.... PS Go the 🇦🇺 ❤
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Jodi!!!
Thanks girls for another amazing podcast. I always watch but don’t always comment. How coincidental that I am knitting as I watch with Ash and Eve Designs Yarn. It was a special collab with my LYS a couple of years ago. Finally putting it in a Rock It Tee by Tanis Laverly. Thanks so much for all you do for breast cancer also. And the heartfelt love you give out to all of the friends. 🧡 🧡 Christine, Australia.
Another fabulous podcast! I hope to meet you at Rhinebeck!
Holly crow, Jodi… that Audrey Top is going to be STUNNING!!!!
Boy your comment on Best of Bridge really brought back memories! Don't know what happened to my Mum's books
Best of Bridge has the easiest lemon squares. It takes only 1 lemon. They’ve taken it off their site, but you can google it. If you have the books, it’s in the yellow covered book.
I am 16 years free. Still. You girls are great!
So happy to see you again ❤
💚💚💚💚Denise, all positive healing thoughts and mojo.💚💚💚💚
Good morning. Happy to see I girls
Spending time with you was again, so much fun! Made my day!!!! I’m excited, hope to catch you at Rhinebeck :)
I’m so excited about going to rhinebeck with my daughter and granddaughter. We hope we get to meet you both.
I love everything you two do and say! All knitting inspo is spectacular but something I really appreciate is your Canadian cooking! lol. As a Canadian in the US, some of the things here are a mystery to me ( stuffing, or dressing as they call it here) so it’s always fun for me to hear what you are making and the cookbooks. Best of bridge, yes. Reminds me of my mother.
I am on year 2 of long way homestead. Obsessed!
Hi!!! It's Tuesday LOL, glad to see you two any day!!!!
Happy belated anniversary!
Crossing my fingers that I get a spot at the Canmore retreat! Our wedding anniversary is during that time, so I’m thinking that Scott will want to come too. If he’s allowed 😊.
I so much relate to not wanting to knit stockinet! That’s why I ended up buying a LK150. Best decision ever after my erlbacher csm. Give it a try, you won’t regret it.
Love vintage Santa!
OMG love that blue steel color 😍
Color session would be great! I need help with this and would love to do color work. Love your swatches!
Just so you both know I went up 2 needle sizes for my James N Watts test knit. I got done with the foot and had to restart because it didn’t fit.
I’ve heard that the granny square card deck has a lot of knock off versions available (which I believe yours might be) and Claire Montgomerie, the original designer, is working so hard to get people to recognize and buy the authentic version (that she actually benefits from). May I recommend that the link in your show notes link to her authentic version? Or recommend people buy it from their LYS or even Amazon. I believe Claire has information/videos on how to recognize the knockoff. 🥰
I came to the comments to say this. I’m fairly sure yours is a knock off. Please talk about it again you gave the knock off website. I know you would want the original designer to get the credit and future sales.
Frankie Grey, do any of your colours come in light-reflective and non-light-reflective both? It would be so fun to play around with that!! 2:46:10
If you are driving up to Rhinebeck from Maryland, or NY I hope you will stop by Pick Up Every Stitch for the Road to Rhinebeck event on Thursday from noon to 6 or Friday from noon to 4. The Mt. Kisco shop is halfway between NYC and Rhinebeck and the yarn choices are sublime. Camellia Fiber Co will be there for a trunk show as well, and her yarn is just incredible. We will also have some light bites if you need to take a minute to recharge. Lots of podcasters are planning to swing by and it's always a fun social event. Please come and breathe the pre-game yarn fumes! I will try hard not to fan girl.
Can’t wait to meet you at Magpie!!
Wish to see you every week!!!
Oh my goodness I'm making that cake pop sweater. I have the perfect yarn I spun up to make that too. I got some beautiful fiber from Hello Yarn last year that would be perfect for an autumn colored sweater. I'm in love.
Jodi, that granny square vest may be the pattern or close to it that is on the label of the Red Heart All in One Granny Square Yarn.
Summer savory is a Newfoundland staple for dressing. We do a dry dressing instead of a stuffing.
Wasps you will find the queen wasps hibernate in a crack or the basement, nook or cranny then when the weather warms up towards 10°c they come out and find another place to grow a nest.
Hi Ladies, great podcast. Traci I love your Galiano socks I just bought the pattern 😊
Happy anniversary jodie
I can’t wait to see you both at Magpie Fibers on Friday!
Jodi you have my vocabulary!!😂 I love it!!
Jodi the swatches would be great for the crochet pumpkin.
The Doodle Directory book isn't almost here. It IS here. I preordered from Jamie and got mine several days ago!!!
Oh no! I missed the live. 😂 Glad to be able to watch the rerun. ❤❤❤
Just put the Turtle Dove in my queue (again). It used to be free but now it is a paid pattern.
😂 Jodi… “Sh*!, F@&#, D&#*” OMGoodness, I’m dying!!!
Epic!😂
😂 I'm sure one of those would have done, Jodi 😂
Ladies, where do we go to sign up for your newsletter and register for the knitting retreats?
The best of bridge sounds like the Taste of Home cookbooks.
What sweater pattern and yarn is Jodi wearing? I LOVE it! It looks SO good on her.
Someone needs to stage an intervention with Tracie and her needlework lol❤
BTWs, Tracie, you and your husband are adorable in you IG photos.
Playing hookie from work today, catching-up with you ladies and knitting. It is the best mental health day. Curious if the patterns for the breast cancer fundraiser are available to buy separately to support the efforts. Thanks for all your energy!
Jordon’s pick of minis for that little crochet vest!
Mini combos are great help
❤️
Hello from your east coast cruise neighbour! 😃
I’m trying to find the link to “For the Girls”… did I miss it? 💝
❤
❤❤❤
I have that new book!
❤❤❤ 💕
Hi loves what was the name of that little scarf with the picot edge?
I checked Ravelry, Turtle dove isn't free. Is there somewhere special to get a free version?
Jodi, what yarn and colour is your jumper please
Jodie, can you adopt me as your sister? Luscious free yarn - yum!! LOL
Good morning from New Zealand
❤❤❤DENISE❤❤❤
There are organizations that take wedding dresses and make them into dresses for babies who are still born or pass shortly after birth for their parents to have a special outfit.
I am guessing you are flying into DCA, which is Reagan national Airport, that’s like 8 minutes from my house and about 9 miles from Washington DC and a crapshoot regarding traffic. It has taken me 20 minutes to get into DC and it’s taken me 90 minutes to go the 9 miles - you just never know. Frederick is Northwest of DC, so it will be one hour 15 min to close to 2 hours travel time, depending on the time of day or evening.
No 😂. You forgot to say that today.
Those planning an unspun project may want to look at Hundred Acre Wool patterns.
