Fabulous episode, and well done and thank you for talking about Andrew when doing the section on knitworthiness. The tour of Copenhagen was much appreciated too and the designer interview had me enthralled!
Your interview with Trine Bertelsen was very interesting with information I'd never thought of before about the fibers. I love fiber too and have always wondered about how to blend natural fibers. Often blends include nylon or acrylic or other unnatural fibers. She does an amazing job of researching and implementation. Her commitment to the environment while still providing quality yarn is over the top. It makes me want to support her even more because of the commitment she has. Thank you for all your wonderful work. I love hearing your interviews, seeing the areas you travel to (I'm jealous, because I'd love to go to many of these places), and of course your own projects.
You ladies are the absolute best for knitting programs! Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. I have learned so much and look forward to every episode.
I’ve been catching up on episodes and taken particular note of the different knitting techniques. I knit in traditional English style and when I lived in Russia became fascinated by a quite different knitting technique used by my Russian friends. I’d love to see a video about how different cultures knit (sorry if you have already done so and I’ve missed it!).
That crown is beautiful. I would love to learn more about it also. I quit knitting and crocheting for awhile now because I became very depressed about some things in my life. I wasn't on the Internet or anything. Anyways, I have decided to get back into knitting and crocheting again. I'm having trouble with my knitting. I can't get my tension right on the ends. I always end up with big loops on the ends. Do you have any suggestions?
You and Madeleine are just fabulous! Really loved your interview with Trine from CaMaRose - so interesting to hear about the company and their yarns! I am brand new to knitting - I learned the knit and purl stitches in the English style many decades ago as a ten year old but never progressed. Just started knitting last October and taught myself the Continental style of knitting as it is more ergonomic. Will be visiting Copenhagen for the first time in a couple of weeks and very excited to look at all the lovely yarns there - especially CaMaRose! Thank you for your brilliant videos! :)
This was a super interesting episode start to finish. I especially enjoyed and was impressed with Trina’s patterns and yarns and her design developments. Making less impact on the environment with her fibre choices is commendable. ❤ Also, that dusty rose shade Madeline chose for her friend is definitely my colour. I quite like Knitting with Olive’s merino fingering weight wool. I have a sweater’s worth of it and her mohair waiting for me to get into. I will now look into CaMaRose’s yarns too.
It's a special early morning knitting session when I can watch a new episode and this one was wonderful as always. Your creativity, variety of topics, beautiful scenery, music and informative interviews make your episodes stand out from other knitting programs. Also, you've become dear friends. I'm happy to be a sponsor and I hope the fiber and knitting world continues to interest you and provide an income for many years to come.
Delightful! I loved the Copenhagen portion with the history and sights. Fascinating to learn about the fibers and sustainability from Trine. Happy knitting!
Fascinating interview with CaMaRose. I was especially interested in the yarns and how they are developed. I am keen to begin knitting again so lots of inspiration here. Beautiful and interesting episode all round.
A gem as always. I finally got caught up on all your previous episodes and had to wait for this one - well worth the wait! And in the meantime, I've upped my Patreon level so that I have access to the Patreon-exclusive interviews! Thank you for all you do, truly Fruity Knitting is the gold standard.
As soon as your new episode with CaMaRose appeared in my homepage, i stopped the video i was watching to see yours !! 😍 OMG this Barbroe blouse is... just stunning ! 👏
Hello from Sydney, Oz. Thank you for this information session with Trine. I love the ethical vision behind her yarns. I will research where her yarn can be sourced in Australia. 😀
I was very frustrated with my Romeo effort because he leaned backwards. Thank you for the knitting needle suggestion for Romeo. It makes all the difference. You are the best.
One of my favourite yarns is CaMaRose! Thank you for this, it is always very helpful to know what goes into the productions of yarns. Right now, with the way things are in the world I would rather give my money to thoughtful, and sustainable things.
Thank you for this lovely episode. I really like her commitment to sustainability and the environment. It was nice to hear how her husband eventually became the one to encourage her that the yarn would sell. 🙂❤
Just a big thank you 🎉❤ on a very much appreciated tutorial…. Its easy to follow and just breaks done the job 🎉❤ it is a big encouragement for all of us 🎉 perfect 👍
Thank you so much for this delightful episode. You are such a strong team and your attention to detail is evident in each segment. So interesting to hear the story behind CaMaRose yarns and how she develops stitch patterns and shaping. The sweaters you both were wearing in the interview are stunning. Just like cooking for your family and friends is a way to show your love, so it is with knitting for them in colors and designs that they like. I always admired how you and Andrew knit for each other. ❤
What a lovely hour spent together with you, ladies. Denmark is a neighbour country ,and Randers is a great city, have been on holiday several times at Fjellerup.
Had a wonderful morning with you ❤❤ fabulous FO's and great new cast-ons…. Loved the interview with Trine from CaMaRose… went to check out all of her patterns .
This was a very interesting video. I'll finish the interview tomorrow but wanted to post a thank you to you both for excellent videos. Very, very nice❤️
thank you for another brilliant episode. i found the discussion about sustainable options for yarns very interesting. i think a lot of us are at least partially attracted to making due to the slow-fashion aspect, so it's good to be mindful that there are still ways we can further reduce our environmental impact beyond just steering away from fast fashion.
Romeo & Juliet are beautiful. I knew they would be. The Bring & Brags - gorgeous and those yet to be - Wow! Loved the segment on knitting for others. The knits from and for Andrew 🥰
I haven't managed to watch your last three episodes due to the fact that I was very busy, but now I have the pleasure to enjoy all three, one after the other 😊That was a fantastic episode and your projects, as always, very beautiful! This blue, Andrea's yarn has, is one of my favorite colours 😍I had forgotten that you've knitted Romeo and Juliet. They look great and what a coincidence, last Sunday, (that was April 21st), my daughter and me watched an excellent "Romeo and Juliet" ballet performance at Semeroper Dresden🩰 I really, really love those snippets of history, travels and psychology please keep them coming 🌏🏰 I also enjoyed a lot the interview with Trine Bertelsen. One of her designs, the "Mariannes cardigan", have been in my favorites list for quite a while actually 👕 So happy that I have two more episodes waiting for me to watch now 🥰🧶
I love this whole episode so much! Andrea, you continue to inspire me in many creative ways. And I really value Madeline’s psychology segments now. I’m changing direction on a gift knit immediately based on this episode. I’m sending much love and best wishes to you both.
Thank you for another great episode. Loved your visit to Copenhagen. I was there in August 2023 and enjoyed seeing the sights again. So nice to hear you speaking about Andrew.
Hello, Andrea and Madeleine. Thank you for this lovely episode. Copenhagen is beautiful. The interview with Trine of CaMaRose was very interesting. I love to knit for my family… especially, my daughters and my granddaughter. P.S. I forgot to mention how much I loved seeing the segment of knitting for knit-worthy friends and family members. I particularly loved seeing Andrew in the gorgeous sweaters that you knit for him, Andrea❤️
Thanks for another information-packed episode! I loved the tour around Copenhagen. And between Madeline's purse and Trina's pillows, I'm feeling inspired to move beyond garments.
Oh, I so want to watch all of this right now but have to rush of to knitnight😂 and later tonight I'm of on "hyttetur", that is I'm going on a weekend trip to the mountains to visit my friend's cabin. Will probably be 3 consecutive days of knitting, but I'll try to squeeze the rest of this in tomorrow morning😍 Happy weekend❤
I love the dolls you have made beautiful and the gray jumper you made you a wonderful knitter love the blue jumper you make the bag is nice history is lovely bless your pod cast
Thank you for another great episode! Keep up the excellent work! Knitting, yarn, patterns, sewing, and travel in one show! I could not ask for more! All the best to both of you.
What a wonderful coincidence! I am watching this episode, while knitting a Fair Isle cardigan for my four week grandchild, with Camarose Yaku! I absolutely love Yaku, and have knitted many projects for both my grandchildren. And Copenhagen is a very special place in my heart and memory. In all, a very feel good, feel warm video, thank you both.
Thank you so much for this episode! I was looking for a Camarose yarn review and I got SO so much more! I bought a cardigans worth of yarn from an online retailer here in the US and I fell in love with every stitch I made of my swatch. Now I want to try each line of Camarose yarn. I especially appreciated the explanation of how Trine chose her fibers based on treatment of the animal and ecological footprint. And how each line of yarn can be interchangeable with another depending on the garment and the use of the garment. I also loved your segment on Copenhagen. Now I must make a visit! I look forward to your next episodes.😊
I love all of your video's! Silkworm moths do not eat, like most moths they only live a couple of days. They do not fly, only mate and lay their eggs. Trine therefore need not be worried about cruelty to moths. But I like the idea of adding Tencel to the yarn (I am allergic to all protein fibres).
49:00 I have that spider. Many years ago, I recall visiting a nearby knit shoppe to be taught how to purl through the back of the second stitch - I marvelled at how they simply did it for me, then undid it and continued with what they were doing. I had found a sweater at a second hand place, but hated it when I got it at home - I liked the colours, and unraveled the whole of it. I began knitting and found all of it went into the cuffs and waistband, and went to Len's Mill to get more to finish. Not knowing what I was doing, every time the spider threw me a loop, I unraveled it (now I would ladder down) ... possibly NINE TIMES! In the end, my body was like the clapper of a bell, as this sweater stuck out at the back! In late 2008, fire took it and 99% of everything else. Around mid 2010 I decided I wanted my spider back. This time I took apart an afghan (took me forever, as it was crocheted without my realizing it for the first hour!) and remade my cherished arachnid. Pity, that the same mistake happened, but I didn't realize it - four of its legs have a crook in them - and, not being of full mind at that time (as an artist, the fire was truly traumatizing), the rest of it is pretty wonky as well. I've felt many times that it is now time to redo it, yet, the troublesome parts represent something very real (and some of it still viable (damn it) )... I have yet to replace it. For anyone wanting to do that spider, GO FOR IT! The book I found it in stated it had almost every stitch imaginable in it. It's empowering to do something like that. Take your time and get it right. You'll NEVER regret it.
So delighted to learn more about Ca Ma Rose I used some to mix with Plotulopi wool for socks to strengthen them. Now you have shown me endless possibilities. Greetings from Ireland.
Yayyy, Madeleine I'm so happy to hear that you'll start on the Jenny Jacket project as I also have purchased the pattern and yarn but have difficulties achieving a nice gathered look and was hoping to find more tutorials on that. Some knitters suggested holding another ball of yarn at the gathering row but haven't seen any video about it. ❤
Dear Andrea and Madeline...... this is just so lovely.. such a relaxing departure from all the nonsense going on within Russia and the European nato countries. I am a new knitter and completing my first juvenile sweater and while watching you gals, I'm enjoying knitting my project. Thank you for sharing your time in Denmark. Madeline, you are so like your father.. ;). Take care...
I was excited to hear that Madeline will be knitting the Jenny Jacket as this is my next planned project as well! I have knit and blocked my swatch and will be nice to follow along with your progress 😊
What a lovely programme. I used to get announcements when a new programme comes up, I am also a Patreon, but I do not get them anymore. dont know why. As a Dane, I did not know anything about Camarose before I saw this, so I am very happy. Just have to say that wool bearing animals do not tear up the roots of what they eat.
As always a beautiful show with you two and loved hearing (and remembering) about Andrew. The interview was fantastic and I love her designs. I tried to get some patterns today, but Ravelry stated the coupon code has Expired. Not sure what that is about since today is just 03/21/24. Thanks for another beautiful episode.
Thank you for yet another fantastic episode! I have a teeny tiny word of warning; the Jenny jacket looks deceptively simple. It’s gorgeous but takes a lot longer to knit up than it looks… at least for me 😂 Still a fun knit, but I wish I knew what I was getting in to before I cast on 😊
So the bikers…what do they do in winter? Or on a rainy day? Do they then travel by car? Or do they continue biking no mater the weather? You are still my favorite knitting podcast!
I saw it too! When they proudly hold up the sweater my first reaction was: there's a mistake! I stopped the video to examine it, and yes, there's really a mistake.
Your interview with Trine was very interesting, especially her discussion of new ways to think about the environmental impact of our yarn fibres. I did want to point out that the reason silk moths die after two or three days from emerging from their cocoons is that nature doesn't give them mouths to eat with. They are not the only moth species whose adult form emerges to mate, and die. Nature can be cruel, but it is not the silk farmers who are cruel this time!
What about some wooden chopsticks for the future? 😂 Though, it’s not a bad idea to use some old DPNs you never use anymore. They look beautiful though. I cant wait to use some knitting for olive in the future for some baby knit gifts. ❤
Hey. Thanks for sharing. For Madeline there is a book recommendation for her psychology research. It's called Altruismus by Matthieu Ricard. You might enjoy the book. Have a lovely day
Just a tip about your dpn's it is very easy to find cheap knitting needles at op-shops in Australia, maybe check out some op-shops in Germany. Just a thought.
Oh wow! Just found you 😊beautiful sweaters and video. I have subscribed and will start watching previous videos. I am a plain sock/shawl knitter and want to start and knit sweaters. Any advice for a beginner? Thank you.🥰x
Don’t forget Andrew made the tiger sweater for your niece, the shawl for his mom, several socks for Andrea and the Angel doll for your host. ❤❤❤❤
Your mentions of Andrew warmed my heart so much for you both. Such a beautiful episode, as usual. Thank you both!
I’m in tears remembering Andrew too, what a special person he was and what a lovely family you are❤️
Fabulous episode, and well done and thank you for talking about Andrew when doing the section on knitworthiness. The tour of Copenhagen was much appreciated too and the designer interview had me enthralled!

This was so fun 🤩 I absolutely love your channel. Happy knitting 💚🧶💚
❤❤❤I love Camarose yarns, they are soft and have beautiful colors, it is also very important to me that they are obtained without harming animals.
A gem as always. I finally got caught up on all your previous episodes and had to wait for this one - well worth the wait!

Great job on the dolls
this was a really lovely episode i really enjoyed it
You need to get some wooden barbecuing skewers for all your toy supports 😂
Is barbecue a thing in Germany?😅
Andrea can get a package when she visits us in Canada in October! No hurricanes this time. BBQ weather!
Hello from Sydney, Oz. Thank you for this information session with Trine. I love the ethical vision behind her yarns. I will research where her yarn can be sourced in Australia. 😀
I was very frustrated with my Romeo effort because he leaned backwards. Thank you for the knitting needle suggestion for Romeo. It makes all the difference. You are the best.
Trine seems like such a sweet lady ❤ I loved hearing her story! You ladies always do such a great job-thank you!
Another wonderful video. The interviews are always eye-opening and enjoyable. Thank you
My kids and I really enjoyed this episode. The kids really enjoyed the vlog portion. Thank you!

I’m with you Madeline- magic loop 🤮
Yes, hurts my hands. And my magic-loop-loving friend says dpns hurt her hands, while I love them.
Just a big thank you 🎉❤ on a very much appreciated tutorial…. Its easy to follow and just breaks done the job 🎉❤ it is a big encouragement for all of us 🎉 perfect 👍

A lovely episode as always, enjoyed it very much, and silly me, I got a tear or two seeing Andrew and you in that picture.
Thank you for this episode, loved learning about CaMeRose yarns.
Thanks this was a great episode, I loved discovering all the CaMaRose different fibers.
What a lovely hour spent together with you, ladies. Denmark is a neighbour country ,and Randers is a great city, have been on holiday several times at Fjellerup.
Thanks for another lovely video! I love Camarose has an alternative to Silkmohair ❤. Thanks for that information and a lot more!
That puts me in my place - I am not an older person, just in later middle age😂 thanks for that laugh😉
Had a wonderful morning with you ❤❤ fabulous FO's and great new cast-ons…. Loved the interview with Trine from CaMaRose… went to check out all of her patterns .
This was a very interesting video. I'll finish the interview tomorrow but wanted to post a thank you to you both for excellent videos. Very, very nice❤️

Wonderful episode!!! Love the interview, i learn a lot. And beautiful image from copenhagen!
Your Barbroe blouse is just beautiful, Andrea. Thank you both for a lovely episode.
I love your show. I can't knit very well but I do crochet. The blue is a gorgeous warm blue.

I have that spider.
Many years ago, I recall visiting a nearby knit shoppe to be taught how to purl through the back of the second stitch - I marvelled at how they simply did it for me, then undid it and continued with what they were doing.
I had found a sweater at a second hand place, but hated it when I got it at home - I liked the colours, and unraveled the whole of it. I began knitting and found all of it went into the cuffs and waistband, and went to Len's Mill to get more to finish. Not knowing what I was doing, every time the spider threw me a loop, I unraveled it (now I would ladder down) ... possibly NINE TIMES! In the end, my body was like the clapper of a bell, as this sweater stuck out at the back!
In late 2008, fire took it and 99% of everything else. Around mid 2010 I decided I wanted my spider back. This time I took apart an afghan (took me forever, as it was crocheted without my realizing it for the first hour!) and remade my cherished arachnid. Pity, that the same mistake happened, but I didn't realize it - four of its legs have a crook in them - and, not being of full mind at that time (as an artist, the fire was truly traumatizing), the rest of it is pretty wonky as well. I've felt many times that it is now time to redo it, yet, the troublesome parts represent something very real (and some of it still viable (damn it) )... I have yet to replace it.
For anyone wanting to do that spider, GO FOR IT! The book I found it in stated it had almost every stitch imaginable in it. It's empowering to do something like that. Take your time and get it right. You'll NEVER regret it.
So delighted to learn more about Ca Ma Rose I used some to mix with Plotulopi wool for socks to strengthen them. Now you have shown me endless possibilities. Greetings from Ireland.
Love the Camerose sweaters with crochet yokes!
Thank you for another great episode! The travel vlog segment was so enjoyable to watch, and so professionally produced, too!!
Great video and oh the figurines characters you have knitted are truly fabulous.
This was very interesting. Thank you!
Another fantastic episode!!
Perfect timing! We're planning on a trip to Scandinavia this summer.
Yayyy, Madeleine I'm so happy to hear that you'll start on the Jenny Jacket project as I also have purchased the pattern and yarn but have difficulties achieving a nice gathered look and was hoping to find more tutorials on that. Some knitters suggested holding another ball of yarn at the gathering row but haven't seen any video about it. ❤
I really liked this episode.
I am grateful for the little tour with you in Denmark!
❤🇩🇰 I a danish knitter and love CaMaRose. 🧶🧶
More danish love it❤
I ❤ you two. My great grandfather was Danish.
Lovely episode
Dear Andrea and Madeline...... this is just so lovely.. such a relaxing departure from all the nonsense going on within Russia and the European nato countries. I am a new knitter and completing my first juvenile sweater and while watching you gals, I'm enjoying knitting my project. Thank you for sharing your time in Denmark. Madeline, you are so like your father.. ;). Take care...
It‘s so lovely to see Copenhagen in the summer. Oh I wish winter was finally over …
love uour knitting, missed your knitters of the world section
I was excited to hear that Madeline will be knitting the Jenny Jacket as this is my next planned project as well! I have knit and blocked my swatch and will be nice to follow along with your progress 😊
What a lovely programme. I used to get announcements when a new programme comes up, I am also a Patreon, but I do not get them anymore. dont know why. As a Dane, I did not know anything about Camarose before I saw this, so I am very happy.
Just have to say that wool bearing animals do not tear up the roots of what they eat.
Love the Tenane sweater!
Hola!!! thank you!!!
Any episode with Ella is a good episode. 😊
holaaa!!!! me encanta ese pullover con guardas que tienes puesto...muy bello!!!!!😍🥰😘
As always a beautiful show with you two and loved hearing (and remembering) about Andrew. The interview was fantastic and I love her designs. I tried to get some patterns today, but Ravelry stated the coupon code has Expired. Not sure what that is about since today is just 03/21/24. Thanks for another beautiful episode.
Hello from Swansea, Illinois.
Thank you for yet another fantastic episode! I have a teeny tiny word of warning; the Jenny jacket looks deceptively simple. It’s gorgeous but takes a lot longer to knit up than it looks… at least for me 😂 Still a fun knit, but I wish I knew what I was getting in to before I cast on 😊
So the bikers…what do they do in winter? Or on a rainy day? Do they then travel by car? Or do they continue biking no mater the weather? You are still my favorite knitting podcast!
I think they still bike in the rain. Not sure about snow... Likely, they have good public transit.
Looks like a "mistake " in the pattern of the blue top , just under the armhole. Like dubble flowers ,rather than single.
I saw it too! When they proudly hold up the sweater my first reaction was: there's a mistake! I stopped the video to examine it, and yes, there's really a mistake.
Wonderful episode as always. I’m with you Madeleine I find magic loop so messy
Your interview with Trine was very interesting, especially her discussion of new ways to think about the environmental impact of our yarn fibres.
I did want to point out that the reason silk moths die after two or three days from emerging from their cocoons is that nature doesn't give them mouths to eat with. They are not the only moth species whose adult form emerges to mate, and die. Nature can be cruel, but it is not the silk farmers who are cruel this time!
What about some wooden chopsticks for the future? 😂 Though, it’s not a bad idea to use some old DPNs you never use anymore. They look beautiful though. I cant wait to use some knitting for olive in the future for some baby knit gifts. ❤
Just wondering after you "get rid" of all your DPN's, maybe a regular kitchen skewer could work just as well (and be much cheaper in the end).😊
Hey. Thanks for sharing. For Madeline there is a book recommendation for her psychology research. It's called Altruismus by Matthieu Ricard. You might enjoy the book. Have a lovely day
Just a tip about your dpn's it is very easy to find cheap knitting needles at op-shops in Australia, maybe check out some op-shops in Germany. Just a thought.
