    My husband and I honeymooned in Bermuda 46 years ago and went back again on a cruise about 5 years ago. Love it there!

    Really enjoyed your podcast and hearing about life in Bermuda. My son just turned 16 a couple of weeks ago here in Australia and we have to spend 120 hours in the car with him while he learns to drive. Once he is 17, he can take a test and be on his own in the car. It is really nerve-wracking being a parent. His sister took 2 years to get her hours up and she (and we) were so excited when she got her licence at 18. Not long after she had huge accident at speed and rolled the car (someone had broken down in the middle of the road and she didnt see it until too late). Thankfully she was able to crawl out without any injuries. I am so grateful. Now with my son, I am not in any hurry for him to get his licence and be driving on his own.
    Love your designs. Subscribed and looking forward to more podcasts. Sadly I wont make it to Rhinebeck for at least another couple of years. One day. :)

    We spent 5 years living in Bermuda
    .....our house had a fireplace which we laughed about when we first moved in
    ....and proceeded to use constantly through every single winter 🤣
    Thank you so much for this little nostalgic visit combined with my new passion for knitting!

    • @bethmacdonaldstone

    So thrilled to a podcast from Bermuda. I lived in Bermuda as a small child from 1959 to 1961 when my dad was stationed at the Naval air station that used to be there. I have such wonderful memories of my time there. Back to watching your podcast now.

    Hello Beth, your channel popped up in my feed, then i saw the flag in the background! Great jumpers, i prefer mine longer. My fav was the coloured yoke and floats, great colourwork! I've only done test knitting on beanies and socks, nothing bigger! Thanks for sharing!

    I live in Florida, but I too love sweaters, shawls, cowls etc. Geez it has been a ridiculously hot humid summer. Yuck!
    Bermuda is on bucket list. Love hearing about it. Good luck on podcast & glad to add you to my World Knitting Friends list.

    Hi there, Beth! Congratulations on your 1st podcast. Nice sweaters😊👏
    You comming in like a tropical wind to cold Norway. At least the last couple of days have been cold on the south- west of Norway. I am a knitted myself. Knitting all kind of things, - from socks, hats, mittens to sweaters, shawls and dresses.
    I mostly design all things myself, or have got an inspiration from this or that. It I have never written a pattern on these items. So they are all one-of-a-kind. I am happy with that.
    Looking forward to seeing you again.
    Greetings from Norway 🇳🇴

I sure hope you poste your projects on Instagram so we can all appreciate your creativity! Well done! Happy knitting!

    @dollcreator 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Had to laugh when you mentioned 'cold' weather. I used to think my daughter was being just a 'wimp' when she said that when the temp dropped to 17C it was time to wear wool sweaters, and wear a scarf when riding the bike. That was until one year I was there and the temp did drop to 17C and yes, it was very chilly.There is always a sea breeze and humidity, so when here in BC Canada people would be wearing shorts and t-shirts at that temp, in Bermuda you wear woolies....

    • @bethmacdonaldstone

    I have never test knit, but have been knitting off and on for 50+ years. For some reason I have become more adventurous in my older age. I finally learned to knit socks two years ago with magic needles (can’t do DPNs for the life of me). All that said, I would love to have your sweater be my first test knit if possible. Tweed sweater, not the Calabash (not quite that adventurous yet 😀).

    So happy you started a podcast - it is lovely! And really cool to hear about the hows and whys of your designs. I snagged that boxy blue raglan - casting on in a Hinterland yarm that I have had in my stash today. I think it will be perfect! I live in the Pacific NW - way up in the very tippy top corner of WA state. And, as you said, that sweater will be great with dresses, leggings, etc. Thank you for taking the time to chat - looking forward to future episodes. :)

    Wow! Just wow! When your podcast started I was wondering where you are. Such a thrilling landscape! Wonderful!
    And then the same with your projects! The shirt you are wearing looks sooooo nice. Unfortunately I didn’t understand the way you fixed the problem with the neck🙈…, my English!
    And you are a great designer. And you explain very well (even I didn’t understand the neck thing). All your sweaters are an inspiration and worth to knit them. Well, I am not the biggest fan of colourwork (because I am not able to work them nice), but the yoke of your last sweater is so so wonderful. Maybe I try it again…., maybe.
    Thanks for that wonderful podcast and I hope to see much more of you (and of the nice place you live, even I can imagine that it is not ever easy to live there. But I think I would really love it, despite of the hard winters. But of course, it is easy to speak like this if you have never lived like that…
    Thanks again and greetings from Europe.

    • @bethmacdonaldstone
      @bethmacdonaldstone  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you!
      The neck thing was to fix the collar of the top I was wearing. It needed stability so I added a ribbon to the inside to add support. Hope that explains it better for you
      Many thanks for watching and your lovely comments

    Hello Beth,
    Greetings from Jésus Island, or more commonly known as Laval, Québec!
    Congratulations on your first - of many, I hope - podcast. It was great to meet you.
    Pleasantly surprised to learn you're a fellow canuck.
    I discovered your designs when I knit your Pothos Tee last summer with Sandnes Garn Line in Pearl Grey and I just love it. As a matter of fact, I was wearing it yesterday!
    In my Rolodex of tops, it's a favorite of mine that I go back for over and over..
    Funny story about it...I knit it by accident!
    I was at my LYS and saw a woman wearing a gorgeous top. I asked what the name of it was. She told me "Lotus" by Sarah Bleau. Coincidently, I was there shopping for yarn for a shawl by the same designer, the "Pothos".
    See where I'm going with this?
    When I looked for the top in Ravelry, I switched the names around and looked for the Pothos Tee instead of the Lotus Tee. Your pattern came up, so I got it and started it right away.
    I found its construction so interesting, and at the same time, I thought to myself that it didn't look quite like the top I remembered. It was only when I looked for the shawl that I realised my mistake....or rather my intuitive creative decision as I like to call it. So glad I got my wires crossed!
    Seing you rocking Hinterm Stein's "Breakfast at Tiffany's' just confirmed to me why it's already in my queue. And may I say that the idea of using grosgrain inside the collar to stiffen it up a bit has been noted. Genius!
    I laughed at your Calebasse story! I was in Martinique this spring and we were shown all sorts of uses for it...including musical instruments. I'm looking forward to thispullover pattern being published. I would be very interested in making it, especially since it's sport weight. Not too many of those around!
    And the Boxy Blue Raglan is another pattern to add to my never ending - and ever growing - queue of projects. It looks so unique and using Worsted weight is a welcome change to all of my fingering summer projects.
    Well, that's enough for now, I think...don't want to scare you too much on my first time writing to you!
    Thank you again for having taken the time to prepare, record and publish this first épisode.
    I confirm without reservations that it was a total success.
    See you again soon

    • @bethmacdonaldstone
      @bethmacdonaldstone  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you so much for your lovely note! Laval Quebec - lovely! You must be starting to feel Autumn by now... I don't think I've been to Laval but I have spent time in Montreal and loved every minute - a great city!
      The Breakfast at Tiffany's top is FABULOUS! I cant recommend the pattern enough. Honestly its truly brilliant and if you are at all keen, you must knit it.
      I love how you ended up knitting the Pothos tee - a rather roundabout route!!! Also glad and somewhat relieved that you are happy with the end result too. :)
      Many thanks, so glad you enjoyed the video, take care
      Beth

    Oh I just found your new podcast. I can’t wait for deep dean. I’m in Brisbane australia, similar climate to Bermuda . But we’re going into our hot humid summer . I made your chalice vine sweater this year. I love it so much .

    Beth, great 1st podcast. Thanks for sharing your thoughts behind your knits. I bought the Blue Boxy and look forward to knitting it this season. I've never been to Bermuda so I'm interested in hearing about your life there. My grandparents are from the Azores so you had me at the intro! Enjoy Rhinebeck. Looking forward to your next YT upload. Best of luck to your son! Sixteen is a hard but exciting age.

    • @bethmacdonaldstone

      Wonderful! There are so many people here from the Azores! Somewhere I'd really like to go and visit. Heard so much about it and it sounds like heaven - those hydrangea hedge rows seem too good to be true! Because there are so many Azoreans in Bermuda, there are direct flights a few times a year and would be great to take advantage of that. I think its a 4 hour or less flight. Hopefully one day! Thanks for watching. Hoping to record and publish another episode next week.

    Hi Beth, I really enjoyed watching. I'm in Ontario Canada ... my gosh, you and everyone there are brave to be out there in the middle of the ocean lol. Have you been living there long? I only recently (last few years) realized that a longish crop is good for tummies ... since it floats over as you sit lol. I love designing but am not too regiment on writing out the design as I go - I'm working on getting better with that. You have lovely designs! I like the colour strip for the deepdene - and ohh yeahhhh I know my sweet spot lol. I absolutely love the Calabash sweater - so pretty! Have a great day, Sunshine

    • @bethmacdonaldstone

      Thank you! I'm Bermudian/Canadian. Grew up in Toronto so probably not far from you (in Canadian distance terms that is :)) My Mom is Bermudian and my Dad was Canadian. More to come on that so please stay tuned if you are interested. Yes a long-ish crop is my sweet spot. Thank you so much for your note!

    Beautiful. Boxy Blue Raglan is at once classic with a modern twist. It's unique for the fitted at shoulders and boxy body. I already have blue yarn that will work ! The whole concept is: elevated sweat shirt to wear to the farmers' market.

    Thanks Beth for sharing your design ideas with us. As a fellow 🇨🇦 , I’m already wearing cooler weather sweaters. Your design process was very interesting to hear as well as focusing on specific body features. I’m definitely going to shop your Designer pattern page. 😍🧶

  • @theyarngoeson
    @theyarngoeson 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Really happy that your channel showed up in my TH-cam recommendations - Your designs are beautiful! I love hearing your design process thoughts. I tend to adjust as I go in my knitting to adapt things to fit me better; I’ll make myself notes and use / re-use those notes in my next and future makes.

    • @bethmacdonaldstone
      @bethmacdonaldstone  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes I do the same. It's all about exploring what's best for your own body type isn't it? I think a lifelong and interesting challenge :)

    What a lovely vlog. I first heard of your knits on “For the Fun of Knit” as she was test knitting the Boxy Blue and I just loved it. I am planning to knit that fairly soon once I have a couple of Wips off my needles. Love from Calgary.
