You two are exactly what I look for in a knitting podcast - down-to-earth, approachable, sharing, and supportive of each other. I’ll look forward to all your episodes!
Awwww! Yay! And you are exactly why we are doing this! :)
Lovely In every way!
Beautiful friendship!
Fabulous yarn studio!
Thank you for all your inspiration 🎶🎶🎶🎶🦋🎶🦋🎶🎶🎶🎶
Thank you so much!
Hello KIm & Jonna, it was so delightful to meet you at Vogue KNitting LIve, I'm Gail, the woman in the Japanese Knitting class with Kim. I wish you both continued success with your podcast, you are both so personable, and a pleasure to watch. XO
Hi Gail!
Sorry for the delayed reply. Wasn't that class amazing? I (Kim) learned so much that weekend. And it was so wonderful to meet you! :) Kim
Love you girls! You make me smile!❤
Rewatching from the start😊Just great work you both do! So Inspiring!! Thank you!💜🤍
Starting at the beginning after finding you lovely ladies. What a refreshing & inspiring pair 🧶🙏🏻🇬🇧
Welcome!!
Rewatching all episodes- again from the beginning- this time taking notes 🗒- I’m a biiig note taker. Purl the sweet dog - looks like the same type that my local yarn shop had for many years - the sweetest gentle soul - guess big dogs make good yarn 🧶 🐕 dogs ❤️
How refreshing, joyful, fun! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Loved your first episode! You are naturals in front of the camera!
🥰 Thank you! I think we’re just natural together and luckily the camera captures that. ❤️
Love Purl the beautiful shop doggy xx great name!!
Beautiful knitting, I look forward to your episodes 😊 and yes danish musings, how gorgeous are her jumpers❤
Beyond!!
My friend told me about you ladies at knitting group. You're delightful and informative! Thanks so much!
Welcome!!
Love you ladies! I started to watch your channel about a week ago, watched any episode that TH-cam suggested for me, and from today I decided to start from episode 1, makes more sense following your progress 😊
Love that! Welcome
Your episode about Rhinebeck popped up on my TH-cam so I watched it and immediately was drawn in. I wanted to look at your other videos and started from the beginning. I appreciate your presentation and your relationship. I can relate to a lot of your experiences in knitting. Kim, like you, I have been knitting for decades and didn't knit anything for myself till years later. I am also a monogamous knitter. I don't alter anything except maybe the length. I haven't done any real color work because I don't feel confident enough (yes even after decades of knitting). Seeing your cardigan makes me want to knit it. But like you said the idea of purling color work scares me and steaking scares me, too. One of these days. Like Jonna, I love to knit socks and have knitted several and almost never us a pattern. Both of you are such an inspiration for me. Thank you for your podcast.
Welcome!! We're so glad you found us. Thank you for your lovely comment. 💕
Kim and I are twins separated at birth. lol I learned to knit in Paris, in French, 36 years ago. Had to be taught to knit in English. Love this channel!!
It definitely seems like we're knit twins separated at birth. Haha! ~Kim
I just found you guys and loved your 1st episode. You are so fun and refreshing with different projects and amazing yarns. The store is not too farcaway- I am on Long Island so it would be a fun day trip.
Thanks for your advice - I am a scary cat knitter -" I can't do that!" I want to do socks so badly. I will go to the designer you recommended and just start. I am crochet too but mostly blankets for my friends' babies. I just started a granny square afghan for my husband.
Now, to go and watch you from the beginning. Love the Orchid hair and love the puppies!! Thanks.
Hi! Sorry for our very delayed reply, but we're so happy you found us! And we hope you enjoy(ed?) our other videos. 🤣
If you ever do head to Pick Up Every Stitch, please let us know. We would love to meet you... ❤️K&J
Love you orchid hair which matches your cardigan. Fun episode.
Congratulation ladies....the hardest episode is out of the way! One of our viewers recommended your podcast and I enjoyed watching along while I was sewing ~ Kelly.
Yes! So happy we finally filmed that first episode. Especially after talking about it for over 2 years. And we’re so happy that one of your viewers recommended our channel! We’ll definitely check out your channel too. We love knitting while watching and listening to other makers. :)
Just found you two. Like Kim I’m starting at the beginning. I love Fruity Knitting, too! I’m in Virginia and will share more later.
As soon as I have the money, I am buying your t-shirt and sporting it every day at college. 😂
So sweet! If you have a sec, can you email us at ktogwkimandjonna@gmail.com?
I'm a new viewer to your channel and you ladies are just wonderful and so inspiring, thank you! The dino sweater was such a surprise when you held it up, my mother knit one for my brother in the 80's and its awesome to see your version.
Hi Sharmen,
Welcome to our channel! And yes, that Dino sweater was very popular in the late 80s. Does your mother or brother still have his? ❤️ Kim
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna I’m not too sure, I will have to ask him. Can you imagine if he has it still?!
@@sharmenlacerte9715 That would be amazing! And if so, email us a pic. Would love to see it. ❤️ Kim
Just came across your vlog. Absolutely love it. You guys make it real. Will definitely continue to watch as long as you continue to make. Love you guys.
Yay! We’re so happy you found us! ❤️ K&J
Such a lovely episode! I just found you through the Its-a- Sarah channel and start to watch from the start and will be bingewatching all your episodes I guess 😅. So thoughtful that you ended with the memory of Andrew of Fruity Knitting 🙏🏼. Greetings from the Netherlands
So happy you found us! Sarah is just lovely!
Stumbled upon your podcast and well, I'm hooked. You're upbeat, lots of smiles and laughter and great projects! Looking forward to the next one!
Yay!!! So happy you’re hooked! Jonna and I definitely have fun together and we could (obviously) sit around and talk about knitting for hours. 😂 What projects are you working on?
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna Arnos & Carlos's little sweaters and I'm on my third Grace pillow sham: such a fun knit!
Thank you so much for a wonderful first podcast! I heard about you from myak…and watched this episode to “meet you”. I’m a fan and will be looking forward to hearing all about your knitting adventures 😄🧶💗
Welcome!!
9/11/22. Episode 10 popped up today after I finished episode 5 of Knit and Wine, and I decided to watch it. Watched part of it, and decided I needed to watch from the beginning! So as today is a difficult day, I searched back to find episode 1, and I loved it. I look forward to binge watching, as Kim did with Fruity Knitting. I like starting at the beginning and following your progress. I’m not a monogamous knitter however….totally the opposite. I have a disease that I don’t think either of you have succumbed to, STARTITIS‼️. I love finding new patterns, new yarn, and beginning a new project. I could obviously accomplish more if I worked more toward sticking with a project and getting it done ✅
Kim and Jonna, you’ve made a lovely start in the podcasting world, and I look forward to binging on. Perhaps I will be encouraged to work on my many wips, some of which probably need to be frogged and started over cause I stopped when I had a big error…or something new grabbed my attention. Great first podcast, thanks 👏🏻👍🏻💛
Welcome!!! Thank you so much. We're glad you enjoyed our first episode...almost a year ago! Crazy.
How did I miss you a year ago? 🤣 I’m sure part of it comes from no longer having a LYS, and not having a regular gathering time for our Knitties to enable one another ‼️
Hi and THANK YOU! The gentlemen at Needles at the Ready mentioned your podcast on their recent episode. I just finished watching your first episode and was delighted. I burst out laughing at least a couple of times as you casually relayed your accomplishments as if 'no big deal,' but those of us that knit have mouths agape! The yarn shop is also just so beautiful.
Hi Stephanie! Thank YOU for watching our new little channel. And we love your "mouths agape" comment! So funny! But just keep knitting and all of it will eventually be (relatively) no big deal. Isn't it amazing though what two sticks and a ball of string can become?
Loved this......
Hi. Just found you and I am streaming the last six months. You two are great. I can relate on many things. Enjoyed watching all your podcast. Thank you. Damaris
Great episode 👍
I just found your channel and I'm loving everything about it and you guys! And I'm starting at the beginning. 😉 I feel like we have a lot in common. I love the purple hair. Mine's purple too! And I currently have 5 grandkids (so far) and spend much of my knitting time knitting for them. I love all the grandkid sweaters! I've done a similar thing recently. And yeah, that yarn is scrumptious. I'm a sock knitter, but am knitting more sweaters. And I actually work at my LYS. Can't wait to watch more! 😁
Welcome!!
Loved your podcast. You two have so much enthusiasm. Looking forward to seeing your future podcasts
If I start in January I might complete the 8 jumpers I would need for my grandchildren for next Christmas. I admire your discipline to stick to one project at a time. Love the podcast.
Do it! And it isn’t really discipline for me, that’s just how my brain works. One thing at a time. ~Kim ❤️
Love that I’ve found this channel!! I crotchet seasonally because I’m an avid gardener. This winter am determined to teach myself to knit, so I began looking at videos. This knitting community warms my heart and I feel an addiction brewing 😂❤
We are so excited for you! Knitting is all that and more!
I can’t believe that this is your first one. Great job! I will binge watch - in order ; )
Yay! And yes, but we did thing about it for almost 2 years before filming Episode 1. Haha!
Can't wait to hear what you think of our other videos...
:) K&J
Love it…😃💙🧡♥️💚, greetings from the Isle „San Miguel de La Palma“, nice Inspirations, thank you!
Thank you! And greetings from New York. Not as beautiful as San Miguel de La Palma, but that's where we live. Haha! ;) K&J
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna yesssssss, La Palma, the best place, and the volcano is finally silent! 😎
BUT: THERE ARE NO WOOL STORES!! 🥹, nada, nothing, nichts!
And...: you have the best diners in the world….🤤 😋🙋🏼♀️
@@astridschultheis35 I guess you have to make sacrifices (diners and yarn shops) to live in paradise. ;)
I am starting at the Beginning 💙
Awwww... Yay! That's exactly what Kim does! We hope you enjoy them. ❤️ K&J
I just found your podcast, loving it. I’m like Kim, I’m starting with the first one.
I had stopped watching knitting videos for awhile now, but you folks are delightful and are helping me get my mojo back. I’ll be watching more, thanks!
Yay! We’re so happy you’re enjoying KTwK&J! And we all go through knitting slumps. Can’t wait to see what you create in the future…
❤️ K&J
I just found you! Starting from episode one! My new knit along podcast.
Yay! Kim always starts at Episode 1 when she finds a new podcast. We hope you like it. 😂❤️
I’m so glad I found your podcast! Love how you share, recommend and inspire. I’m really looking forward to following you both on this podcast adventure.
Congrats ladies! Loved this episode, looking forward to many more!
Thank you so much! ❤️
I just discovered your podcast, and am curious about where you two live/are located, especially when I saw the picture taken Mohonk. You two are delightful, and work so well together. I'm happy to find a podcast by two grandmas, a little closer to my age, than many of the knitting podcasters.
We both live in Westchester County, NY and we’re so happy you’re enjoying KTwK&J! ❤️
Just found you and thoroughly enjoyed watching you both!!!
Really enjoyed this 1st episode ladies!
OMG, that brings me back, I made the same sweater for my kids too.😃
You guys are so comfortable to watch. I find myself talking to the tv. Love you
Haha! That's so funny! We're so happy you're enjoying our channel. :) K&J
Loved your video, you both are great.
Oh my gosh, just saw this podcast! So excited to watch you! Jonna love your dress. Both of you are beautiful knitters. Just my style!
🥰 Thank you so much!
Just found your channel and now going back and starting from episode one!!
Great podcast! Love the learning aspect. Thank you!
Very good first episode.
You are both amazing. I am catching up on your past episodes but those sweaters are to die for! Kim the picture of your grandbabies made me smile so much, so very sweet and precious.
Thank you!
You two are so wonderful im so glad I found you
My granny made that exact same kids dino sweater for my brother in probably 1989!! My nieces have worn it since and it’s so cute.
She was an amazing knitter, she did argyle socks without any pattern well into her 90s…
😂 I guess it was a popular pattern back then. And WOW! Argyle socks without a pattern!?! That’s amazing! 🤩 ❤️ ~ Kim
So I watched yours in random order but believe there are no more after this! Love that LYS.
Love your podcast …….we need a great one like this one ❤️🥰🎄
I just found your channel tonight, January 12. I love it and I intend to binge watch all of them. Keep up the good work
You two are adorable.
Your channel popped up onmy IG feed today so I decided to watch...so glad I did. I love it! Planning to binge watch the remaining episodes in order.
Looking forward to more videos.
Just found you through a recommendation from Needles at the Ready (Kevin and Ray). So glad I followed up - you are both delightful to watch and your content is inspiring!
I’m so glad Kevin and Ray from Needles at the Ready recommended your podcast. I loved this episode and am looking forward to seeing more.
Thanks for the great close up pictures, really help! You are such cool grandmas!
I’m so happy you like the close up pics. It’s a bit more work, but makes such a huge difference! And thanks for thinking we’re cool grandmas. ❤️
Excellent. Love the podcast
Thank you! ❤️
Just wonderful! I want to make it all! Can't wait to follow your knitting adventures.
Thank you, Elizabeth!
First time watcher :) . I so enjoyed your video-thanks! Looking forward to future videos!
You all showed up in my "new to you" feed on TH-cam (who knew there was such a grouping?) I loved Kim's hair and started to watch and then immediately went straight back and am binging all of the episodes. You two are delightful and talented knitters and a joy to stumble over. Lucky me. Thanks for sharing your talents with the rest of us.
Thank you SO much! We're so glad you are enjoying our episodes. Also glad that Kim's hair caught your eye. Welcome!!! Jonna
I’m so happy I ran across the two of you. I’m looking forward to #2 💖
We’re happy too! Episode #2 will air on Friday, December 3 at 10:00 am EST.
Saw your more recent podcast and decided to watch them from the beginning.
Glad I found your podcast! Great job I really enjoyed the first episode and looking forward to more!
We’re glad you found us too! ❤️ And of course, we hope you keep watching. 😊
I Just found you .... and what Awesome video!
You both do beautiful work.
Thank you so much!
Brava Kim and Jonna!!! Great job!! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Thank you, Maureen! We can’t believe we finally did it!
LOVED IT! Well done. Love your finished projects and what you are working on. The shop looks wonderful. Wish I was close so I could shop there.
Thank you so much! We're glad you're enjoying our channel. It's sinking in that we have viewers out there! Yes, it's a lovely shop. We are very fortunate to live close by. Have a great day. Jonna
Well done, glad I found your first podcasts. Really enjoyed it, thanks.
Thank you! We’re happy you found us too. 😄
Love your rapport. So pleased to find you. Looking forward to many more inspiring episodes.
☺️ Thank you! We’re so happy you found us too! Next episode airing this coming Friday. ❤️
Loving your Cape and cardigan, so pretty.
Love you guys so natural and beautiful, love your knits and the out takes are so funny thank you for sharing 👏💕
Thank you so much for your sweet words. ❤️ And we’re so happy you like the silly outtakes! 😂
What a wonderful first episode! Love the interaction between the two of you. Can’t wait for future episodes. And….I love the intro song, it’s perfect!!
Thank you, Katy! It helps that we’re best friends and have so much in common. And I’m so happy you love The Knitting Song too!!!
Sorry I’m a bit like Jonna and bouncing around. I just found you ladies yesterday so I have a lot of catching up to do. I love watching Fruity Knitting and feel so bad that I stopped watching after Andrew passed, just hit home too much. I will catch back up though. I love your podcast and look forward to watching everything you have up now and in the future. 🌸
Welcome!! Yes, I completely understand. He's always present, isn't he. I met them both at VKL in NYC and they are both as lovely in person!
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna , after having lost my husband, the pain in Andrea’s eyes was more than I could handle at the time. I felt bad but I just couldn’t do it. I remember the feeling.
I love what Kim said about the mistakes and how we should keep going! I watched Nimble Needles (to learn the German Twisted Cast On that Jonna talked about in a later episode on the Rununculus sweater) and he mentioned something to the effect that we are not robots, these items are not machine knitted, mistakes are part of the process!
Wow, I just came across you and loved your podcast! I look forward to following you! I don’t know how many I have missed but this was episode one! 💕
Yay! And you started at the perfect time! We only have 6 more videos: Episode 2 + 5 Minisodes. ❤️
You girls are lovely - look forward to more from you.
Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
Loved watching this! Thanks for sharing all of your projects. Loved seeing and hearing about your Orkney sweater as it is at the top of my list! I am currently knitting Marie Wallin's Maple sweater pattern. Congratulations on the new channel 🎉
Thank you! Our next video will be a short but more in depth explanation of Kim’s Orkney. Hoping to release it next Friday at 10 am.
Brava Kim and Jonna 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you! So happy you enjoyed it!
Just found you and I can’t wait to watch the next episode. You are both so much fun and so real it is refreshing! 🤗 looking forward to learning more! 😊
Yay! Thank you!
Just found your podcast. Great job, I look forward to watching more and knitting while I get to know you both. Knit happy!
Welcome aboard!
I’m so glad I found your channel! I learned to knit while living in Germany also. I used a German illustrated book and made clothing for my 1st child in 1985. I had to relearn some things after I came back to the States and just kept knitting. I really enjoyed hearing your stories.
We’re so glad you found us too! And I love our German connection. ❤️ We hope you keep watching! ~Kim
I just happened on your podcast this afternoon and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I did all the things....subscribed, hit the notification bell, and the thumbs up and now I'm going to binge watch all of them this evening until I'm all caught up. :-)
😊 That makes us so happy! All the things! 😂 We hope you enjoy the rest of them as much as the first. ❤️ Kim & Jonna
Speaking of binge watching; that is what I am doing. I just found your podcast and look forward to watching from the beginning. Fruity Knitting was the first podcast I found, Then the Grocery Girls and The Bakery Bears ( I am a top tier Patron of theirs- also a hisband and wife team who make an outstanding professional podcast). Hello from New Brunswick, Canada.
Hallo from South Africa. Happy to find your inspiring channel!
Yay! South Africa! We’re so happy you’re enjoying our channel. ❤️
I just discovered your podcast and you have a forever fan. I am like you Kim. I have to go watch the first one and all that lead up to the current one! I already added 2 patterns to my cart :-)
Yay! We love forever fans and you're the first! Would love to hear what 2 patterns you added to your cart?
I really enjoyed your first episode. I love Fruity Knitting too - it's one of my favorites. I never used to watch YT at all until I started watching them! Now I watch all the knitting with a side of history documentaries ;) Looking forward to your next episode.
We’re so happy you enjoyed Episode 1! We had so much fun filming it. And now we’re getting ready to film Episode 3. Wow! Time flies…
So happy that I stumbled upon your podcast. I love your format and your comfortable friendship.
Thank you and welcome!
Congratulations on your new channel, Kim & Jonna.💖
Thank you, Vanessa!!! We’ve wanted to do this for the past 2 years and it’s finally a reality. I can’t even believe it.
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna great first episode. That pink is a beautiful color.
I just discovered your channel today and am starting back to this first episode. I love watching and listening to you both and seeing your beautiful projects ❤️. I’m so excited to find you!
Sorry for the delayed reply. It's been a rough month and a half around here. But we're so happy you found us! ~K&J
I love Kim’s Orkney and that’s how I found your podcast via Instagram!
Thanks for the heads up for Summer Lee too. I also love the C2 and Jonna’s shawlography colours. 😊
Thank you so much for watching! And it sounds like we have similar taste in knitwear. :)
Your intro is one of my favorite songs and so of course I knew I would love your podcast!
What!?!? You know the Knitting Song? We were so excited when we found it, and even more excited when Xtra Mile Recordings let us use it!
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna I’m a big Sophie Madeleine fan, 😀
Enjoyed your first episode, found you from an IG post. Love all your content.
Susie - We’re so happy you enjoyed it! :)
