I’m with Flatsie and give you TWO thumbs up for this episode. I was in raptures over your quilt hexies but began to giggle a bit when we got to buying huge pieces of furniture for rooms that aren’t yet in existence - the ladder and Carlos had to breathe - and then by the time the cushion-hoarding conversation came along, I was dying. Carlos, your face!
I really like how you two are so kind to each other - and yet show a little spirit when necessary. Arne takes teasing about his acquisitions well, but can push back a bit when he needs to. You two handle everything so well. Good for you. I am an admirer. xx
When Arne says, I have an idea. In our household it’s, I’ve been thinking. (Uh oh). And when you got to the ladder and cushions, you made me laugh and cheered up an otherwise awful day. Thank you so much for this episode. I enjoyed it all.
You guys are so funny! We need laughter in the U.S. right now. 😊 Thank you!
As an idea person myself, I really enjoy when Arne gets a “live in person” idea on the video. It’s so fun and exciting. Thank you for sharing that experience.
You are both so much fun. I loved Carlos’ face when Arne says I have an idea. It was nice hearing Little Freya. Healthy, safe travels
I really like your new sweaters for the dolls. The 'bulbs' are very sweet too. I think Flatsie should be called Flatsie Patsy as her full name. Patsy is such a 50's name it would go well with her style. You both have your treasures you need to have around you. Apparently Carlos was unaware of his cushion love. haha
I love watching SAKFAB! So much fun... we have a cushion hoarder and a doll collector so can totally relate.😂 Just like Arne, if I'm not doing something I fall asleep within 10 minutes.... so many projects that I'm now calling 'Cleaning' (don't tell anyone it's new yarn😁)
Both of you are just adorable….makes my heart smile❤😊
Arne, I spied the "birdie" crochet bag from the cruise! LOL. You can't unsee that! It was a pleasure meeting you and spending time with you both during the cruise! Hopefully we will meet again in the future!
So Nice meeting you both - we hope we will meet again soon!
Arne, I agree that if you don’t have something to do, you fall asleep. 😂
You gentleman are a great distraction and help me relax.😊❤
So enjoying the haute couture for the dolls. Flatsy is by far the most gorgeous dolly that you have shared thus far. Always entertaining. ❤.
I’ll never get tired of watching you gentlemen and all your shenanigans 😊
Thank you for making me laugh so hard! Listening to the two of you defend your ladder and cushions was the best. Households around the world have had this same "discussion". ;) Love you guys!!
A couple of my grandsons did "flat Stanley" projects in elementary school. They loved in Florida at that time and we were in Washington State. The pocket doll provided such fun memories. I just love the way you display your differences but then you bring such lovely projects into reality!😊
Love flatsy!! Her sweater looks fantastic!! Enjoy you both so much!! You are both so talented and funny!! Been following you since the pandemic!!
See you next time!!
Arne and Carlos I really like listening to your conversations while I am hand quilting. I will be forever in debt to Kate from the last homely house for directing me to your channel! I love cushions too!
Thank you so much!
You two are so cute together. Safe travels and fabulous visits. Be well.
Haha, I love your pronunciation of Bulb, Carlos. 😄 Funny to imagine taking 10 days for you guys to figure out the lights on the ship. 🤣 Thank you both for this fun episode. 😊
Cushion-gate! I loved it. I need to re-cover some cushions on my living room couch, which is shared with two large standard poodles, so the cushions are looking old and frayed. I love library ladders, too. I need one!
Amother great episode, cushions and ladders oh my. Happy and safe travels.
Carlos, your idea to name the Spring Bulbs is very inclusive and positive.
I loved the look on Carlos' face when Arne mentioned the ladder. I laughed out loud. Too funny and so relatable.😂
I love your ideas, trip stories, cultural information, and good natured discussion. I think I pack like Arne. 😊 so glad you got over that illness quickly. Wonderful Sunday Sit and Knit. ❤
Hi, Arne & Carlos, what a delightful episode! I’m so glad to have met you on the 2024 North Cape Express cruise, which fulfilled the top of my bucket list. I can’t wait to sail with you again. ❤ Lily
I very much enjoyed the reference to the Phila. barns - I live outside of Phila. Thank you for another enjoyable episode. Safe and fun travels to Sweden and on your cruise. Carlos, prayers for your mother.
Your discussion about removing items of the same size for bringing something the same size or smaller is a good place to start. We have those discussions, too, with some laughs.
I used to remove double the size before bringing in something smaller and it made progress. Admittedly, I am finding the practice challenging after home repairs and trying to redefine spaces and select what stays, goes, and what would be a better fit.
Ultimately, everything is a responsibility regardless of size and tripping hazards are to be avoided at all cost. Best wishes in your hone and away from home journeys.
Oooo, I love the mittens! Wonderfull!!
I packed for a two night knitting retreat. It looked like I was going to be gone for two weeks. You never know what you're going to need, so you pack for every contingency.
😍👍🏻
Haha. Love the discussion about the lights.
You guys are so great 😂 thanks for being so genuine 🩵
Could you please make just an outline of flatsie for those of us who love doll and doll cloths.
Pretty Please
Great episode! You two would fit right into my family! Surprise, admitted embarrassment, talk it through and have lots of flashbacks to this conversation on TH-cam. Love you 💖 guys
Fun cast! I love your discussions of Norwegian weather, the Easter balls/bulbs, and the doll bathroom make-over. Laughing out loud about the gigantic "ladder" (I think it may be what we call a step-stool) and the many, many cushions. You two are so wonderful together, even or especially when you are teasing!
While I’m watching this, I am making flowers for a grandmother’s flower garden quilt. Love the new “bulbs” and eggs. And those signs on the barns are from Lancaster County where I live. They are referred to as hex signs.
Hello I just finished a piece of needle point which Arne calls embroidery. Now I have to get it ready to frame. I have too many needle point pillows. So to listen to you today I will go back to my crochet blanket.
Have a wonderful week
Great story telling. Thanks Arne and Carlos for sharing. Very interesting and fun. 😂❤
I loved this episode, thank you for cheering up a rainy Cornish day. Love Flatsy Patsy. ❤😂 Xx
Other than my four sons, you are my two favorite guys. I love how you tease each other. Love you both ❤
Oh you guys! The toilet! So funny!
I was an avid collector when I was younger, and now I just want to purge stuff lol. I even want to seriously reduce my yarn stash, so that it is more managed into what I might actually use. Lucky for me, I have a few nieces/ friends that have decided to start crocheting. Thank for another good time sitting with you both!
I still have the sweaters & toques my Mother knit for my Barbie doll and for some bigger dolls I had. (I still have the clothes she knit & sewed for them) Back then, I asked her to teach me how to knit; I tried my hand at it several times but gave up after a while. My Mom continued to knit & sew throughout her life. She was really good but didn't think she was. I am fascinated by the items that people knit, including yourselves!
Thank you for making me laugh on this damp and grey evening in England and as always for the inspiration which is always appreciated. Xx
Arne " I can count my flatty collection. One!" 😂 The barns in Wisconsin are that same red too. 💗 the paper piecing you have done. Great video!
"The case of a hidden ladder and to much cushions"🤭🤣🤭 Lovely episode with you two - laughing material.❤
omg, I’m crying I”m laughing so hard while you’re talking about how much your buying vs how much is getting thrown out! Arne is enthusiastic and Carlos is skeptical. You guys are the best!!
I love it when you show your projects. It's the first thing my mom would do when I visited her. I love project showings.
Great back drop today! Your blue and white plate display looks wonderful above the red settee. Arne, so glad you are all better! I’ve ordered my yarn and can’t wait to get started on the 2024 eggs and balls. Thank you and Bon Voyage for your next excursion.
You two make me laugh so much, cushions and ladders!!!!!! So funny!!!
Never boring for sure!!! The look on Carlos's face when Arne told him about the new ladder...I laughed and laughed till my sides hurt. And then the cushions!!! Looking forward to seeing Kate...
I would so come to a garage sale you are doing! Thanks for another very fun episode!

Hello gentlemen. Thank you once again for your sit and knit for a bit podcast. Best sunday ever for me. Love you guys. So very knowledgeable and fun. Take care. Enjoy the sunshine 😁 prayers for rain ☔
I’ve did a professional decluttering session today at my storage bay. I explained Arne’s “cleaning” method to her which she thought was creative. I have collected (*cough* “hoarded”) knitting machines. Unfortunately I can’t remake the machines into something else but I can use them to knit up all my yarn into a blanket for my bed! Hence my description of Arne’s cleaning method 😊 I also think I’ll make myself some of Arne’s knitting needle cases once I get a sewing machine set up at home. Enjoy your cushions Carlos - I love a feather down cushion too! 😀
Always love seeing you two!
You both are such a joy to watch.
Hey guys, the mittens are lovely. "EYE CATCHINNNNNG!!!!!"
I just bought the latest easter egg patterns on your website and I must say I like the patterns very much
I am very gratefull
Thank you so much for putting the effort in making these designs every year.
You are welcome!
It was a fun chat with you both. I think a majority of people that craft kinda hoard some . We are always looking ahead and thinking we can do something really neat with our collections. Arne I would love to see your ladder.
Wonderful episode. In watching the two doll sweaters you knitted, you could embroider different designs on them.
You two are just too funny! Carlos: Arne, what did you get rid of? Arne: Things! Carlos: What things? Arne: Things.....Love listening to your videos. Keep it up!
I love listening to you! It’s so funny 😂
I love hearing about the cruises when I know where you're talking about. It was amazing. I looked the svalbord trip in August ❤ I am glad to see you back on again.😂 great humor
❤ So good to have you home (and feeling better.) Cushions & Ladders - a new series! 😂 Arne defending himself: the ladder “is beautiful.” I taught myself to sew on a machine by sewing square things: cushions and napkins. Can you have too many of either? ❤ Be well and safe travels.
Love you guys! I am really laughing at you not seeing the ladder... I have had exactly the same experience! Safe travels!
Good morning guys! Having my coffee and knitting a blanket with you.
Good morning!
I think every happy couple teases each other. I love seeing it
Good morning! Knitting on my kal project for Lent .
So enjoy watching your videos. I tell my husband ,he's A horder and I'm A collector lol
LOL 😂. So much fun watching your podcast. Love you guys, love all your creativity! You're both fantastic
Carlos a wonderful way to put cushions away without them taking space is to put them in a clear plastic bag or garbage bag (with picture of cushion)and use your vacuum to take air out of bag then twist bag and tie it.
Awww, wonderful. I love Flatsie. I always take a teddy bear,, a knitted mouse, or a doll with me when I travel.
I like spring bulbs.
I am so much like Arne in that I must have something to do or I would fall asleep. Lol
…and Carlos, what did you throw out when you got your new cushions? 😂
I was able to knit a great deal on my sideways lace border of my Shetland shawl whilst listening to you two.
Thank you and I look forward to SAKFAB in two weeks.
😍
The ladder and the cushions 😂 Thank you for the wonderful visit today (by the way, my obsession is wooden tables and not usually small ones lol! So I'm a table hoarder I guess 😁) Have a lovely week!
You two are wonderful! I am cracking up because I can relate. I honestly think every couple struggles with this conflict. 😂
LOL Love you guys! Cushion and furniture hoarding! 🤣❤
OMG I LOVE YOU GUYS 🥰 This "show" is like Stand Up Comedy, only you two are sitting down with us in your kitchen.... Sit Down Comedy Show -- HILARIOUS!
Your new kitchen is enveloping - your celebration sounds likewise 🐰
Lovely to see you both again hope your better Arnie, take care now you two love to you both
I love your humor and how you behave.
🥰👍😁🍀thank you.
totally enjoed your visit while i am home knitting
I laughed so much at your collecting/hoarding discussion 😂
I think all of the hexagons turned out nice. Adore the birds one. That flatsy doll is so cool. I've never seen one before. I do remember my daughter having a little kit to make her own rubbery bendable dolls and those were flat. We all have too much of "something" don't we? LOL
That is very true
You make my day, thank you! Carlos has the reasonable amount of cushions and Arne has one ladder - I think it's fair enough 🤭😅
Porridge gate, ladder gate, cushion war, OMG, it is always funny with you ❤️❤️
Love from Poland ❤️
That was a good one.
1. I totally get cushions hoarding.
2. Great memories of the Havila Cappella light situation.
3. I can’t wait for Top of the World in Sept.
Keep having fun and reminding us all to have fun, too.
Your banter is such fun to listen to! It was good to hear Freja also. Thank you for sharing the Norwegian Life and Times!
I am looking forward to the next episode of 'The Ladder Saga' xxx
Lovely to see you both again. You are both the same for buying, we say here you are like peas in a pod 😂 take care both. Sian from North Wales x
I think I have the same addiction Carlos, and totally agree that cushion pads have to be down!!!!
I use the excuse that I need the synthetic ones for stuffing, so need to replace them 😂
Definitely enjoyed this catch up with you two. Arne's enthusiasm for all things designer is infectious. Carlos, you are a great supportive partner and you both made my day once again.
❤❤❤ the best!!!!
Your projects are looking fantastic and perhaps ladders and cushions are a necessary component of your creative process 😂
Love it ,things !
Thanks for your podcast! Very nice! I am Anita, I am from Buenos Aires Argentina, I will go to Norway in April,
I have one of those double lamps that go around my neck, brilliant. I am old but it was my thirty-something friend who has one for reading who recommended it to me.
Oh it will be lovely to see the new addition perhaps before it's fully organized Arne style! And we'll get to see the cruise with Kate too sometime soon. So much fun. And yes, your teasing is fun because it's done with love.
Lots of laughs today, thank you! 🤣
I enjoyed this week's video. While I listened and watched, I finished knitting the second sock from your 6-ply sock yarn. I had been working on a sweater and a shawl and the sweater was way too big since I am loosing weight and the shawl had a mistake in the lace so I spend two days ripping out knitting and wanted something easy to knit. I closed my eyes and reached into my sock yarn stash and pulled out a skein of your sock yarn and it was the 6 ply....I also have plenty of the 4ply. I now have a pair of new socks done in a week and am happy. I liked Arne's comment: I fall asleep if I don't have anything in my fingers. That's me and I can say, I knit my way through many college classes just to stay awake. I was quite a sight back in those days, the late 1970s with my note taking book on one desk to the left, I am left handed, and my knitting work on the deck I am sitting at, knitting away and paying attention and then taking notes during the lecture. People just couldn't understand how I could do it. But my brain allowed it. I did always talk to the professor to let them know I was doing it and not being rude. A couple of them asked if I could knit them a hat, which I did, full of cables, nice and thick for winter skiing for one and running for the other.
It is quite fun to listen to you teasing each other ...
I'm laughing! You both are the opposites. That is why you complement each other. Like seeing all your WIPs.
Love the picture and the dishes-sorry about your trip issues
I love repurposed embroidery. Take it all Arne!
