One who has been through the darkness is most often the one who brings the light into others. Thanks very much, and Happy Turn of the Year! ❤️
That is beautiful and Happy Turn of the Year!!
I love your info-bites about the places you're visiting. You had me needles down, grinning, listening to your coffee shop experience. If only we engaged with the stranger(s) we find ourselves next to, the world might be a kinder, friendlier place. Lucky you, to be "Part Sheep"!! I hope this revelation changes your perspective about your hair. Wishing you a holiday season full of happy, unexpected surprises.
Linda, thank you! I totally agree that we need to try and connect with those around us just a bit more if possible. Compliment someone on their cool piece of jewelry or saying ‘bless you’ when someone sneezes. Great conversations can come out of no where!
@@theknittystew We do that. My Aunt taught me that a quick "drive by" compliment is not scary but that it should be something they chose; a blouse, scarf, earrings, hair color etc. It's wonderful to see someone who maybe hasn't received an honest compliment I a long time, light up with joy.
@@theknittystew I know I'm coming late to this conversation. I watch your podcasts long after you've made them. Trying to catch up. In one of my readings somewhere, I learned to give something to everyone you meet. And that doesn't mean something material. It can be an object, but most often it's a smile, a nod, a compliment. Sometimes it's hard but is especially rewarding if you notice someone is particularly grumpy and you can change their attitude with a kind word.
@@jackiewheaton4199 I LOVE LOVE LOOOVE that. Just a little more kindness in our day to day lives can really make a difference.
So pleased to view another episode in your travels, and to get another dose of your seemingly endless enthusiasm for all things knitting. While I love seeing and hearing about your projects, the way you acknowledge your native peoples, as well as other kindnesses you display with people you meet, touches me in a way I don't find in other knit-casts. I always look forward to seeing your new episodes.
Thank you Linda that is such a heart filling thing to read! Means a lot 🥹 Happy Holidays & Happy Knitting!!
One of the things I most appreciate about your channel is the acknowledgment of First Nations history of each area you visit!
Happy Knitty Hugs to You Stewy for the wonderful gift of community , all your shares, especially the coffee house chat.
BIG knitty hugs right backatcha!
Great to see you in a new episode. What a shame about the yarn store. Love your finished objects. Enjoy the festive season ahead and make the most of your knitting time. 🇬🇧
Well, I really tried to hold out and save your episode for my weekend at home up north...BUT I couldn't! A long day work, a warm fire and my knitting made me cave. Thank you for your kind shout out, I definitely had a little fangirl thrill to see my name "in lights" on your episode. I so appreciate it. Safe, easy travels... Sarah
Yay for knitting along next to a warm fire! It makes me so happy to read that. Soo thrilled how this community lifts one another up, and your podcast is truly so soothing, inspiring and real! Happy Turning of the Year!!
Love your coffee shop connections story. That was definitely where you were needed.
I will always treasure that visit! Definitely going back to Oldhand next time I'm in Abbotsford.
9:39: "he went into the yarn cupboard . . ." lol - just these words elicit an auditory pavlovian response that tickles my kooky spot and makes me chuckle with joy & appreciation at the memory of your at- home episode, where the opening of the yarn cupboards' doors is gloriously heralded by an angels' chorus:, promising wonder and delight. woolly heaven. magic
Oh my gosh Sarah! Thank you for this message - made my day! I'm going to rename the yarn cupboard "woolly heaven" ...
Lovely hand dyed yarn!!! They’re very much up my alley!
Amen to knitting being relaxing.
🙌🏼
As always it is a joy to spend time with You!
Thank you Hannah ! 🤔
Gorgeous Zweig!
Thank you friend! I’m in love with it.. planning a second while still working the first one - THAT kind of a project 💗
Thanks for keeping real and sharing your learning opportunities.
Your Zweig is motivating me! Thank you for your time. 💕
Thank you too Maureen!
Hi. I just wanted to say a quick thank you, I really love the way you show such respect for the indigenous peoples whose lands you are visiting. It has been great for me to see the maps of where exactly you are so that I can have something to relate to. I've always thought that your job would be a good one for me, but it was quite different when I was that age. ( I'm now 75 ) I love how willing you are to share your life with us, even the harder parts. So again , thank you and keep it up.
Thank you for taking the time to message me Deborah! it is very encouraging.
Lovely podcast. All of your projects look amazing! I love the mechanic story in the shop and the beautiful footage of the mountains.
Thank you Queen!
You are delightful! Enjoy your podcasts.
Thank you Linda! You are delightful too!
Malabrigo continues to be my favorite. I love Rios and Arroyo. I love the colors. I'm working on a scarf for my dad in "Paris Nights" which is a beautiful deep blue/indigo. I find it irresistible.
Paris Nights is a glorious colourway. You have reminded me of the truth that the heart wants what it wants! Malabrigo was my first “knitting love”.
That contrast orange in your Zweig!!!! It is spectacular! I’ve seen lots of Zweig’s and that dark charcoal grey with the orange is truly beautiful.
The only thing wrong with your podcasts is that they are over too fast, Leanne. I so enjoy every episode.
Aw thanks Jody 🥹 Happy Holidays & Happy Knitting!!
a lovely episode as always! and you will LOVE your knitting barber cords!
Using them now! They are so handy. Why did I wait ?
I love your podcasts …..I particularly like your openness and honesty - so refreshing . I look forward to you sharing more of your knitting and life experiences. I wish you a peaceful holiday filled with love, laughter, gratitude and of course lots of knitting! 🧶
Thank you so much Sandra! What a nice message. Happy Holidays and ALWAYS happy knitting to you as well 🤗
Enjoy your holidays and look forward to seeing you again in 2023. Love your pidcast.
Thank you Stephanie! Happy holidays to you and thanks for being here 🤗
Thanks for another enjoyable podcast. Your Zweigg is looking stunning- and love your son's hat.
Thank you Solange 🤗!
I watch for your podcast every week. I used to live in Washington. Now I live in South Dakota. I really enjoy your tours around the towns that you visit.
Thank you Dawn! Hello to you in S. Dakota!
I love your Zweig, the contrast between the grey MC and the blazing orange lacework is stunning. Shame that the yarn shop had moved online but it looks like you had lots of fun at the festival. Lovely to see the yarn made from the different sheep breeds.
Thanks, Leanne, I flew from Winnipeg to Abbotsford on October 14 this year. Your pics of the mountains reminded me of my flight. It featured the longest sunset I have ever seen. The sun was about to set in Winnipeg when we left there. The sunset followed us and the sun only set as we were approaching Abbotsford! How amazing! Thanks for sharing your knitting with us. I love your presentation, it is enlightening and relaxing. Keeps me knitting! Wishing you a joyful holiday season.
Thank you for this thoughtful message Carol! Oh yes that view from 30-40K ft does NOT get old …still it takes my breath away after all these years.
Thank you for another most enjoyable podcast. Warmest of wishes to you and your family for the season.
Stewie does Abbie lol! I love your channel so much. Thanks Liane!
Oh my gosh yes lol 😆 Good one Barb! I should re-name the episode!
Thank you very much, I enjoy every thing and wish you all the best
Thank you Maya!! 🤗
Love the progress of your sweater. Always enjoy watching your videos. 😊
Thank you filmjunkieSD!
Thank you. I am enjoying your company so much.
Thank you Ferme! 🤗
Thank you! I enjoyed your podcast. ❤
I love your style, Leanne!! You are always SO cool! All the best, Camilla
Camilla!! Thank you for being so kind. Also, I’m telling my children someone said I’m cool. 😆
Your Zweig is stunning 😍 I need to knit another one!! Thanks for a lovely visit❣️
Loved seeing yours on you today Nancy! I can see more of these in my future and haven't even finished my first one ... haha!
I love your attitude Stewy! 😉 Happy knitting to you too. I love your content and appreciate what you do to share it with us.
Thank you Beth! Appreciate you being here.
I have enjoyed each episode of your podcast, thanks for recording for us all in your knitting community. I would like to wish you happy holidays too and look forward to seeing you in the new year!
Thank you Tracey for being here 🤗! I appreciate each and every message. Happy Holidays & Happy Knitting!!
Your Sweig is to die for. I love the colour and the all over texture just finishes it off nicely. At this rate you will be wearing it next time. Thanks for another lovely citycast. Christine from Australia
I can’t stop knitting on the Zweig!!! Happy Holidays!! I always appreciate you saying hello from Aus!
Great to see you again! Wishing you a wonderful holiday season!
Love your episode Stewie. As always.
Aw thank you Pati!! Take care and Happy Holidays & Happy Knitting!!
The scenic views from the air are simply breathtaking! I just watch in wonder. It's sad that the yarn shop there in Abbotsford closed. The fiber festival looked like a lot of fun! I'm glad you got to meet Brittany in person. BTW your beanie is so cute! I've never done colorwork, but it looks amazing! I loved the fact that the power scour worked for your hair. That was great! ❤🧶❤️
Another great episode! Thank you. See you next year…
Thank you so much Patricia! I will see you in 2023 👋🏼 🤗
Thanks for sharing the map showing where you are!
You bet!
Love your podcasts. 😊
Totally love your zweig. Gorgeous colours. It's on my list 🙂
Thank you Pam! I am so happy it’s turning out better than I even hoped! Doesn’t always happen that way 🧡
Happy Knitting, and Thank you so much for all the great content, and genuine, open and honest chat that you share. I’m turning into a bit of a fact geek when you take us all out and about. Love hearing the stats about the places you stay. Looking forward to seeing your next podcast. 🎊 Thank you.
So enjoy your podcast episodes. Looking forward to the next posting. Happy Holidays!
Hi, so lovley to see you again. I smiled because I'm knitting on the thick and quick alafosslopi mittens while watching. I'm on call as an operating room nurse in a small hospital so you you can end up doing anything from a C-section to a femoral fracture. But tonight its nothing on the emergency list.... That means alot of knitting and catch up on podcasts. Thanks for charing your knitting life with us.
Hi Aina! Aren’t those mittens the best! Fast and good fit! Thanks for knitting with me. Wishing you a continued quiet shift!
Hello from New England. I have enjoyed watching your podcast. May God richly bless you.
Hello to you in New England! God bless you too. Very much appreciate that 🙏🏼🤍
WOW…what a great day this is…another episode of The Knitty Stew….Woo-Hoo…❤❤❤
Thanks Kimberly you are the best!
I enjoy your podcasts. Thanks for keeping it real. I saw you in Edmonton but we were all a bit busy so I didn’t stop to talk. 😃 I love your Zweig! So good! I also love that you like green yarn. 😀
I get the migraine thing. For me, I get an aura which nearly always affects my sight. It’s like a sun flash that won’t go away. And I also get spacey. Unable to say things right and do things sometimes. And there’s really nothing to be done except wait it out. I sympathize with you. I don’t usually get the headache for whatever reason but I have a couple times and it is completely debilitating for days.
Keep on taking us on your layovers, Stewie. 😂😊❤
Hi Jillybeandean 👋🏼 sorry we didn’t chat at the Fibre Frolic! There was a lot going on hey? Those migraines are wild. I am so glad they’re quite infrequent now (knock on wood). Hopefully for you too. Thanks again for travelling with me :)
Thanks again for a great podcast. Have a safe and wonderful holiday season. 😊
You too Catherine!
Your hat is beautiful and I also love the sweater you're currently knitting, beautiful colour combo.
Thank you so much! What are you knitting on?
@@theknittystew I am currently knitting mittens from the Saltwater Mittens Book as well as Christmas Balls by Arne & Carlos. Looking forward to your next podcast.
Thanks for sharing. Love your city tours. It's fun to see different cities I'll probably never visit.
Thanks for trekking with me Kim!
lol I had to watch this twice...wanna knit all your projects !!!! Thanks so much for sharing :)
You are so kind Sam! I want to knit everything i see right now .. only two hands. You feeling that way!?
@@theknittystew oh god tell me!!! I would need no full time job, a day of 72 hours and another pair of hands…altogether
Loved your podcast! When you showed the yarn intended for your Zweig I wondered if the gradient would obscure the lace pattern but boy was I wrong! That gorgeous yarn is reminiscent of the sunrise over the shadowy mountains you showed at the end of the podcast.What a glorious colour combo!.Hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
My sister said the same thing when I showed it on the last episode. I had a vision and I am VERY pleasantly surprised that it’s not on the list of “helpful information”.
Thank you for another great podcast! Love spending time knitting with you. This time I’ve been working on a colourwork hat. 💐💜🧶
Thank you! Happy colourwork knitting!
Aw I love that you might be part sheep! No wonder I like you so much! And loved this whole episode as usual. I also am enamored with Rambouillet! Soooo soft!!!
Haha! 🐑 Rambouillet all the way!
Malabrigo is really one of the best top yarn brands out there!
It will always be a staple in my knitting heart.
Your Zweig is amazing...it immediately reminded me of sitting in front of a cozy, blazing fire. Perfect winter knit!
Thank you! 🤗
Always enjoyable. Happy Holidays!
Thank you Kris!
I so enjoy your podcast and your gentle sense of humor. Lol about the shampoo! Enjoy your holidays and safe travels!
Thank you Shirley! I appreciate that! Thanks for being here.
STEWIE!! I’m always so happy when I see a new video from you! And wow, this one was jam packed with fun. 😊. First, I so appreciate your acknowledgement of First People. Next, I get so inspired by your projects. I’ve made 2 froggies and the Dangling Conversation and the Zweig has been in my queue far too long. So that’s up next on my needles.
Also, if you love Rambouillet, I urge you to try Polworth wool. It’s incredible to spin (Polworth Top). And wonderful next to skin soft. Now I’m going to have to knit those hats for my husband. And yes probably brown. 😂
I also love the footage and history of your beautiful country, Canada. Please don’t make us wait too long for your next episode! 😉💕
Teehee!! Stewie!! I’m really trying to push this nickname thing but they say it can’t be forced. 😆 Thanks for you message Christy it is so encouraging and good for the soul to read this. I’ve taken a screenshot so I don’t forget to check out Polworth!
My commiserations on the migraines: I know they are miserable. i do enjoy your podcasts. It is a shame that so many local yarn stores are disappearing, but at least that one is still online.
🤗
I hope you and yours have a lovely holiday. Stay safe!
You too Camsnow!
So nice to spend this time with you Leanne, and always a pleasure to see your knits and where you are visiting in your travels. Wow, the view at the end with the sunset and mountains was fabulous. Such a bonus to see these spectacular vistas we don't get to see from the ground. If you're not back before the new year, Happy Holidays and New year, and will be looking forward to the next one. Take care, safe travels. 🤗
Thank you Sue for trekking with me! Love your comments 💕 Happy Holidays & Happy Knitting!!
So enjoyed the episode and I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season. Happy knitting.
Hi Sharon thank you so much! Happy Holidays and happy knitting to you 🤗
Happily Knitting a dog sweater for my puppy:) Happy flying! Always love catching your videos!
Thanks Lydia! I love that you’re knitting a dog sweater. Would love to see it when done.
Sheep shampoo.. oh my.. hahaha.. that was the best! You should check your hair for lanolin :) Lovely episode!
Thank you Leanne what a lovely podcast.Gorgeous knitting 🧶
Thank you Elaine! 🤗
It was so great to meet you at the Edmonton Fibre Frolic. I hope I'll run into you again some day. :)
I enjoyed spending part of my evening with you. I lived in Abbotsford for a few years before moving one city further east about 30 years ago. I found it interesting to see such familiar sites (and sights) through your eyes and I even learned a few things! I also saw some familiar faces at the beginning of your Edmonton Frolic footage, Kim and Evan (with the green hair) from Black Cat Custom Yarns, one of our three local yarn shops. I look forward to seeing what you make with your purchases in the new year. Thank you for producing such a wonderful podcast, which enables me to be a tourist in my own country without leaving home (one day I hope to visit all of these places in person). BTW, if you are looking for something new to watch, I also have a knitting/crafting podcast. Safe travels home and Happy Holidays to you.
Thank you so much ☺️ And thank you for that heads up! I will head on over and have a nice quiet knit n chat with your podcast today on my day off!
Your WIP Zweig is simply STUNNING!!!! The orange tweed contrasting against the charcoal gray explodes visually! I loved your latest you tube... keep those inspirational topics/and travel highlights coming. Hope you can fly down to Stitches West/Sacramento CA March 2-4. A lot of avid knitters in this locale that love to yarn shop. I visited a brand new knit shop in my town Martinez called Busywork this weekend. Met the owner who is very sweet and helpful. I bought a few things and People, hope you knitter/stitcher folks in my neck of the woods will patronize the new shop and help it be successful. Knitting helps destress from the worries of the world!!!!! Till your next broadcast Leanne
Hi Carrie! Thank you for this fantastic message!
Thank you for another lovely, interesting podcast! What a shame about the yarn shop - sadly something we're seeing more frequently in the UK. Buying yarn is such a sensory experience, I hope this trend doesn't continue for too long!
Thank you Mairead.. you and me both!
Hello again, it’s great to hear that you had a good time at the Frolic. It was awesome to finally meet you, it looks like you got some lovely goodies. Thanks again for taking time to come into the lounge and visit. I love the colours you’re using for your sweater! I hope you have an amazing holiday season and you get to spend time with family and eat lots of yummy food take care xoxo ❤
Hi again Charlene 👋🏼 wishing you a Happy Holidays & Happy Knitting!!
Enjoyed the visit!! Happy Holidays!! 🎄🧑🏻🎄🎄
Happy Holidays & Happy Knitting!!
Hi Stewy, too bad Birkland brothers was such a cool store front, I was so happy to stumble across it,as it used to be down at the bottom of Main Street or somewhere around there, but I did order a great variety of fibres,and wasn’t sure if online was still in business,and it all came so fast! So I am very happy they still have a online business, take care Melissa.
Great podcast as always.
🤗
Thankyou for another great podcast. Love that you highlighted our wonderful Anna from Longway Homestead. Makes my Manitoba heart proud. See you in the New Year. Happy Holidays.
GO MANITOBA!! And Canadian wool in general!! Big fan.
Great yarn haul!
Very happy 😊 with everything!
Hi Stewy (I love this nickname), so great to see you. Thanks for sharing all of your adventures and crafty goodies. Have a wonderful holiday season - one day at a time.
Thank you KD! Happy knitting and turning of the year 🤗
Isn't it nice when our loved ones ask for knits ! I always enjoy your podcast. Happy knitting to you too !
Thank you Nicole!
I get occular migraines on occasion. And had regular migraines my whole life until menopause. So hormones are probably right for you. I am so sorry you have them.
It was so lovely to spend time with you today. Another wonderful episode! I love seeing your outings and enjoy your easy conversation too. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your family and I’m with you on trying to avoid feeling overwhelmed by all the season. ❤❤❤
Hi Jacqui thank you! Wishing you a cozy and unhurried season.
I so enjoy your podcasts! The information on where you are staying, the little tours around town, etc..
Also appreciate your honesty about what hasn't turned out as well as expected but things you learned in the process.
The closing scene from the airplane shows us how beautiful our planet is.
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Bettina! I don't care how long I've been flying... that view will never cease to take my breath away. Happy Knitting!
Part sheep🤣 not a bad thing. Hope you have lovely holidays and safe travels. Always enjoy my time with you💐
Thank you Deb! 🤗
Have a great holiday and I'll see you in the new year.
See you in 2023!
And thanks for the share of the Cambridge watch cap! I’m going to cast that on with Eden from Hand Maiden!
Eden... delicious! Can you let me know if your decreases work out on the Cambridge? If you think of it that is . :)
@@theknittystew I will!
Thank you so much for this episode! Your knits are beautiful. I’m knitting a pair of socks for my husband. I think that the only gift knitting I can realistically do will be balls for my 3 newest grandchildren. 🤷🏽♀️Peace and blessings to you and yours.
🎄💗✈️
Another entertaining episode. Perhaps that Malabrigo you dyed could become felted insoles? Thanks for sharing the footage of the Rockies at the end. Peace and health to you and your family.
Thank you Beverly same to you and your loved ones!
May you and your family have a Merry Christmas! Thank you for sharing your adventures!
Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones too Leisa!!
I love all your makes. I have the same fear and colour shyness with my husband. But I get to play with colour for my many grandies. I've been working on customer lap blanket and sox as well as a pair of sox just off the needles for myself, 3 hats because they are needed and quick. I want to start more but have to finish the customer stuff first.
It wasnice to see Abbotsford. We used to live in the Arrow Lakes area in the centre of B.C.
I cannot wait to see what you will make with that raw, unspun gifted ro of wool. Beautiful.
Hi Kathleen 👋🏼 You have some great WIPS on the go! I’m really excited to get cracking on the unspun plate from Crux Fibres.
I love the idea of "Turn of the Year". I will use that. You are just so engaging. I'm sure you made that couple's day by just chatting to them. And how amazing to help make the connection with another mechanic who's just starting out. I wish I was part-sheep. I think I'm a golden retriever instead.
((Hugs)) Hey T we should go on a Canadian coffee shop tour (we’ll bring our knitting of course) and then spark up convos with strangers!!
@@theknittystew I'm so down with that! It could be a yarn/coffee crawl
Thank you Leanne (aka Stewey :) I was so happy you had time to share all of the things and the info about Abby....there are so many things to learn from your posts. I love Malabrigo and you asked what we are knitting so I will tell you, when I visited New Brunswick in October, I bought the book by Christine LeGrow & Shirley A. Scott "Saltwater Gifts." I used 2 strands of Malabrigo Rios to knit the Seafaring Slippers. I have one more pair to knit before the 18th. These are very warm slippers and I like to think of them as "sitting socks." I am inspired by your Zweig which looks as beautiful as the sunset in the Canadian Rockies at the end of this episode. I wish you all the best in the busy days ahead....much calm (not too much bright to keep that migraine away). Merry Christmas and many blessings in 2023.
This is such a nice message! I have 2 of the Salt Water books and LOTS of Briggs so I should get after those beautiful patterns! I love how you saw the similarities in the Zweig and the sunrise over the Rockies. Happy holidays and Turn of the Year Barbara!
@@theknittystew Thank you Leanne, and I LOVE FiberTrek too!
Hi! Vic here- love you Zweig! I just want to copycat your colors! Happy holiday knitting!
Doooo it!!! It surprised a few folks who thought it would be too busy but it think it rocks!
Just saying "Hi." Missing you! Hope you and yours are ok in all of this challenging weather... ? Take good care!!! 🥰
Hello Desiree!! Thank you for reaching out. I made it through the holiday flying season and the wild weather events unscathed. Currently gearing up for a new episode coming soon-ish! Happy New Year to you and yours 🤗
Happy holidays! I look forward to your podcasts and am always inspired. Thank you!
Hi Mary! Thank you so much it makes my heart happy knowing I'm making other knitters happy.
Just recently discovered your podcast.... love, love! So nice to see more Canadian content!
Hello! Thank you so much! Glad you’re here 🤗
I'm about 2 years behind but catching up quick. Love your vlog and can really relate - even down to the optical/visual or atypical migraines. I'm in Ontario, half way between Toronto and Hamilton. I've been knitting for oh my - 74 years now (Mum taught me when i was 4). I have many WIPs on the go - easy ones for waiting rooms etc, ones that are in isdolation right now while I try and figure out how to fix something with them or I've just got bored with them and some complicated ones. At the moment I'm swatching for an aran pullover for myself Sykes by Martin Storey. I know it will take me awhile as it will be a challenge for my arthritic hands. I'm enjoying your travel bits and seeing parts of our country that I haven't been to as our traveling has been curtailed by health concerns.
Thanks for catching up with me, Gail. I’m glad you’re here!
Failure is just our first attempt at something, as long as we learn from it and carry on then it isn't a bad thing. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
Thank you so much for being here!
