Even my family knows what “Oh no” means when I’m knitting. 😂
LOL so funny
Always wonderful to see your fantastic FOs, WIPs and dyed yarns.
And fun to see you both on World Knit in Public Day and to meet your Mom, Ray, at Knit New Haven. Seeing the projects you are knitting in real life.
Lauren's yarns are beautiful!
Woolens and Nosh. Sunfish is a gorgeous!
Best wishes for more June.
Hi Michael, It was great seeing you. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your day at Knit New Haven.
Ray, Your sweater came out fabulous!! It’s absolutely gorgeous and is perfect on you!
Thank you, I am so happy with how it turned out.
Ooh that Woolens and Nosh self striping. I was positively salivating over the ‘Blaire, do you have my legwarmers?’ .
Cute stitch stoppers! Those are Highland Cows. Adorable!
They have the best stitch stoppers.
I love those needle stoppers too. Woolens and Nosh April Showers, Salt Water Taffy and Swizzle are my favorites because it is too hard to pick just one. That color you made with Michelle is so cool!! 🧶🧦💕
I’m burning my Ray candle while knitting Kevin socks ❤
Awww, thank you so much for purchasing the box.
Woolens and Nosh Saltwater Taffy. Thank you for keeping me company while I knit. You two make me smile. I’m 76 years old and always tell my daughters about watching my knitting boyfriends to get knitting inspiration. I look to you for hat patterns for my grandsons. 🩷💛💚💙
Aww thank you so much for watching and commenting, we really appreciate it.
Ray can you ask your Mom to do a cameo on the pod? I’m so curious to see her. She must be as charming as you😊
We will definitely ask.
The Woolens and Nosh color way that’s my favorite, is the saltwater taffy. Their self striping yarn is gorgeous. One day it will make it into my yarn collection. I wanted to thank you guys for keeping me company through my healing. It’s been rough year. My kids and hubby recognize you guys now by just hearing your voices. Lol. You guys are part of the Sunday ritual.
Hi, Thank you so much for watching and commenting, we hope you are feeling better.
You have kept me partially occupied during my 9 hours in the accident and emergency dept. Finally left withba plaster casted leg. A big thank you to our NHS here in the UK and for your entertainment. I agree kevin, using vouchers and coming out with lots of goodies and not spending your money feels great x
Oh no, hope you have a speedy recovery.
Best wishes for quick healing and a smooth recovery…🤗🧶💗
Woolens and Nosh favorite colorway is “Oh, hello you”. Thank you for sharing!
Even the dog knows what oh no means when I am knitting lol. Always entertaining to watch your podcast. Love all your makes especially Ray’s sweater
LOL so funny how they pick up on those things.
Adore the Highland cow needle stoppers, they really are the cutest Scottish cows. What an absolute treat, my birthday gift to me was your mysterious podcasts collaboration. Everything is perfect and even my husband loved the colours and has demanded socks😂 I agree, Fourth Wing was a surprise and delight to read, I’m so invested I used an audible credit too. Great visit as always, take care.xx
Happy belated birthday. Thank you so much for purchasing the box, we appreciate your support. We are so thrilled with how it turned out. Yay, love hearing from people that read Fourth Wing, I am looking forward to book 2 in November.
Happy belated birthday Kevin. 🍸Just think your first birthday in your new work/life chapter so fabulous for you. Loved all your stuff and love Ray’s jumper. Just enjoy hanging out with you guys - even though I am old enough to be your mother 🙈 the Woolens and Nosh wool is fabulous 🐏
Thank you so much.
Hope your car has been fixed! I love you sock dye job! Woolensandnosh has soo many beautiful colorways, but mine is Misty walk on the beach! I've had the worst week of my life, my 23yr old nephew died from a car accident. So having a your podcast to watch lifted my heart❤! Ty
Thank you, still waiting to get the car fixed, hopefully I'll hear something soon. So sorry to hear about your nephew, you and your family are in our thoughts.
Woolens and Nosh - I love April Showers - another great episode thanks for sharing all the great knitting with us
Thanks for watching!
Woolens and Nosh- Love the Stained glass color way!
Great podcast as always. Always look forward to watching and seeing all your WIPs and FOs. How cool to hang out with Michelle and make your own color way!
Hanging out with her was a highlight of the trip.
Woolens and Nosh..... Meadow Sprite is beautiful. Thank you for a lovely episode!
i'll be seriously watching and listening to you guys... then i look at that picture of the two of you in the background and it always makes me laugh. thanks for your great podcasts 😁
LOL
Woolens and Nosh has so many great self striping colors, but Snow Day really speaks to me since snow days were so exciting when I was a kid. White snow, blue skies, and some green evergreens. Perfect! Thanks for having this give away! 😊
Love a good snowy day.
Woolens and nosh - the April Showers colour is beautiful!! I love the name you gave your colour 😂
Oh no, in that tone that generates dread everyone in the house feels. All come running to find out what happened😅😅
Vacationing in Scotland but still have to watch Kevin and Ray. Loved the new dyed yarn. Well done, Kevin. Ray your sweater is absolutely stunning. Have a wonderful 2 weeks.
Thank you 😊. We hope you are enjoying your vacation.
Great episode as always! Thank you Ray for test knitting for me - your Parish Lines 2.0 is GORGEOUS!❤❤❤
Thank you, I loved knitting the sweater and love how it turned out.
Great job on dyeing the self-striping yarn - the colors turned out fantastic and the name is 100%. The Woolens and Nosh Sushi Roll Self-Striping color is gorgeous!
Thank you, the name perfectly sums up our trip. 🤣
Woolens and Nosh oh, I am loving Snow Day! Although all of them are magnificent. Ray, I love your sweater! It looks amazing on you.
Thank you Laurie!
Gorgeous sweater Ray- it looks great with the pop of colour on the sleeve.
Thank you 😁
Happy Birthday Kevin!
Ray, your sweater is gorgeous!
My favorite Woolens and Nosh colorway is Ashenvale!
Thank you 😊
Wow, your projects and yarn dyeing are so inspiring. I love your podcasts...always. Woolens and Nosh - Stained Glass. I'm sure the colorway that you dyed there is spectacular.
Thank you Donna!
Always a great Sunday when there is a new episode of NATR! Favorite Woolen's and Nosh colors is Ashenvale.
Love that! Such a fun color way!
Woolens and Nosh self stripping is beautiful. Love the Percolated color. Happy belated birthday Kevin!
Thank you 😊
I have been watching NATR since your first podcast, when it was only Kevin and having Ray join and start your wool adventure together has been a delight! It is nice to see how the podcast has grown and evolved, with always being interesting. I need to try out the Wollens and Nosh self-striping yarn! My favorite colorway is percolated.
Thank you so much, we have such a great time doing these videos, getting to share our shenanigans with you guys. We appreciate you watching and commenting.
Woolens and Nosh So many wonderful color ways! April Showers is one of my favorites.
Woolens and Nosh has some wonderful colors. As of today I love Stained Glass. Thanks for all your sharing.
Guys, the mysterious collab is amazing and the colour ways are gorgeous. Ray, your sweater is very cool - beautiful fit, so crisp and even.Kevin, Fancy Flannel and Bejewelled are my favourite of your dyed yarns, but very hard to choose. So glad you are living your dream. Woolens and Nosh Swizzle is my pick from a very competitive palette. Beautiful yarns. Thanks for a very interesting (as usual) time xx
Thank you so much!! We are so happy with how the collab turned out. I love Fancy Flannel, it is one of my favorite colors, also one of my favorite to dye.
Woolens and Nosh, I love them all, bit Blair, Do You Have My Legwarmers speaks to me. Glad you had fun dying your own colorway! You guys have great taste.
Thank you, getting a chance to dye self striping yarn was so much fun.
Woolens and Nosh Saltwater Taffy so summery and makes my mouth water- Woolens & Nosh is terrific yarn. Your knitting shows are inspiring, too!
Thank you so much, we love doing these videos, it's always great to hear that you'll get inspired from watching.
Omg! Woolens and nosh is a dream yarn!!! How can you choose just one! I guess I would have to pick April Showers! I love how entertaining y’all are!!! Thank you so much!!!
Thank you, we agree picking one color is so hard, we love them all.
Woolens and Nosh! My favorite self striping colorway is Misty walk along the beach. Ray, your sweater is fabulous!

Thank you for all the kind words 😊
Woolens & Nosh April Showers is soooo beautiful!!
Woolens and Nosh has some lovely colourways - hard to choose a fave. The colours in April Showers speak to me, but the name "Oh, Hello You!" is so cute and the skein has that gorgeous cobalt blue in it.
Woolens and Nosh has such beautiful color ways. My favorite one is Fancy Schmancy Pumpkins. I Enjoy your podcasts so much. You are both so genuine nice and engaging people. The le garçon special yarn box looks fantastic! Hope they make more of those, would love to buy one. Take care of yourselves.

Woolens and Nosh Happy Bright looks like so much fun!
Woolens and Nosh: soooo many great colors! April showers is my favorite and in my cart
Woolens and nosh Percolated. Thanks for the twisted rib error story. As I was watching, I was working on a row with a million nupps and ended up with an extra stitch. Your story was a message to let that go and move forward.
LOL sometimes it is just easier to keep going.
What a fantastic colorway name for self striping dye adventure. Woolensandnosh stained glass is gorgeous too.
I’ve become a bit obsessed with stitch stoppers too, Ray!
I love the Woolens and Nosh colorway Stained Glass, so beautiful. I have 2 pairs of socks that I’ve made from her yarn and love them!
Stitch stoppers are so fun and cute, gotta collect them all. 🤣
My favorite Woolensandnosh colorway is April Showers. What a fun day you must have had.
It was a blast dying self striping yarn.
Woolens and Nosh Stained Glass! I love the black mixed in with all the colors
I love the Meadow Sprite and Percolated self striping yarn at Woolens and Nosh. Ray, your test knit turned out fantastically. Kevin, your yarn dying is sooo good (as Arne, of Arne and Carlos, would say).
Thank you, Ray is so happy with his sweater, I feel like I'm getting in my yarn dying groove.
Woolens and nosh , Blaire , Do you have my legwarmers? ! I love the colors
This is the way is my favourite colourway from Woolens and Nosh. Love your podcasts - always look forward to watching. So sorry about you car misadventures in Montreal. Best wishes from Melbourne, Australia. Alex
Aww thank you so much.
Woolens and Nosh- stain glass looks fabulous!
Hi friends! you certainly got my attention when showing the shop update 😂 I love my Love Note made with the Wintersteel 👏👏

Happy Belated Birthday! I love “April Showers” from Woolen and Nosh. Hope you have a wonderful year!
Thank you 😊
Hi Kevin and Ray, thanks for another enjoyable episode! Woolens and Nosh April Showers looks so pretty. Happy belated "21st" birthday Kevin !
Beautiful sweater Ray!!! Happy Knitting to all🧶🥰 Great new Logo !!!

Thank you gentlemen for another entertaining video, so nice spending time with you all. Woolens and Nosh favorite colorway would have to be April Showers...my birthday is 4/20 !
Always love watching your podcast! Woolens and nosh, Blair, Do you have my leg warmers is a fabulous color-way!
OMG and the name of the color way is sooo good!! 🤣
That is so funny - "Oh no", I have said it sooo many times!! Woolens and Nosh is such a great company. I really like Snow Day! It's calling my name
Another great episode! Woolens and Nosh - Stained Glass looks beautiful!
Thank you 😊
Woolens and Nosh. SO many good ones - but loved ¨Blaire, Have you seen my leg warmers?" (colors and name!) And love your podcasts.
Thank you 😊
Woolens and nosh Cookie swap is my favourite. And your Needles at the Ready kits look awesome
Thank you! 😊
Ooh, hard choice, but I think my favourite Woolens and Nosh colourway is 'Oh, Hello You!' - I love bright colours :D Another enjoyable episode, I like the humour you've got with regard to the 'car incident', and I loved the exchange you had about a bag for the needle stoppers (I'm definitely with Ray on that one ;))
Love the yarn at Woolens and Nosh. Very hard to picks face. My favorite is Sushi, and also April showers. Always a fun podcast!
Thank you Donna.
It's good that you're knitting to the fabric you like rather than just gauge! What I usually do is figure out the sts/inch (of the fabric I like) and then look at the schematics and pattern to see how many stitches are in the chest area that would fit my prefer gauge. Have fun you two 💕
That is very similar to what I did for this sweater. It typically works out pretty well.
Beautiful knitting❤Woolens and Nosh Sunfish is my favorite colorway!
Thank you Pat.
So many good Woolens and Nosh color ways! I love Stained Glass and Sunfish.
First time looking at Woolens and Nosh yarns. Hard to pick a favorite but I like the Cookie Exchange colorway. Love your finished sweater Ray, fits so well! I love the light blue sweater Michael is knitting. That color will look so great on you. Michael's colorways are just beautiful. I have to go shopping and get a few. Take care and see you in a fortnite.
Thank you 😊, hope you have a good 2 weeks.
Love you guys and Wollens and Nosh! With what is up on the site currently my favorite is April Showers.
Woolens and Nosh "stained glass" because it reminds me of those colorful licorice candies (all sorts??)! Can't wait to win and see how your colorway works up!!
My current Woolens and Nosh favorite is Sushi Roll! Michele’s yarn is magical 💗. Love your color way’s name 😂.
Thank you Taryn.
