Laughing at your teddy stories. I used to have a large calico cat. She was probably close to Teddy's current size. I knitted a series of blankets in Lion Brand's Homespun yarn. Marble, the cat, loved that yarn. I am sitting on the couch knitting one afternoon. Marble was sitting with me, but I wasn't paying a lot of attention to her. All of the sudden I couldn't pull any yarn to knit with. I look down to my skein, expecting a large tangle. Instead there was no skein, just a trail of yarn. My glass door was open, and the yarn trail leads outside, up the porch stairs and there is Marble-skein in her mouth- heading outside. Who knows what she meant to do? LOL! THANK YOU for the wonderful description of Brioche and Fisherman's Rib. I love knitting Fisherman's Rib and have never been able to make Brioche work!
Today’s podcast was so much fun! FYI there is no need to apologize for back ground noise in your videos, it’s just part of the charm of these shows. It’s relaxing sitting with friends and talking about knitting. Loved the Yolk book!
Kim and your late night knitting. 2 circular needles are perfect for any number of stitches. If you have interchangeable needles, only the working needle needs to be gauge. Your non working needle can be any size, but smaller works best. You may already be aware, but didn’t get that impression. Enjoy your show, never miss an episode.😊
Love these videos! Please don't worry about background noise. You are in a working yarn shop. If we were knitting together in person there would be background noises. The Here Comes The Sun sweater is BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for being inspiring and encouraging. ❤
According to Norman of Nimble Needles, Fisherman’s Rib and Brioche are exactly the same, the names historically just come from different places. He has an excellent video showing 4 different ways to knit this stitch. Demystified completely.
all of your projects are beautiful. Love the dynamic between the 2 of you. Also enjoy that your podcasts are longer than the podcasters. It gives me a many hours of enjoyable knitting time.Jonna it is making boring baby blanket better.
Oh, always so delightful when you have a new podcast out! So inspiring, new colors, new patterns, new books ( I am loving Just Yoking), new techniques… I just love it! Thank you both so much for sharing your time with us. Absolutely no distractions from the background noise 😁 I think it’s just really an added bonus to see what’s going on in the shop as far as new yarns and projects. In fact, if I’m ever in the area for sure I will want to see Pick Up Every Stitch.
Great knits! Great hair color! The two of you make me smile. You’re lucky to have each other. Thank you for sharing your knitting journeys with us. The enjoyment & the challenges. 💕🧶 Heidi, from Chicago
You ladies are so wonderful. I sit and work on my wip's and learn so much about new to me patterns, yarn and all of your problem solving knitting. Thank you so much for all you do.
Kim and Jonna, I enjoy your podcast. Kim, you have such a generous soul with all of your gift knitting. Jonna, I love your little Teddy. Please keep his updates coming. Karin Patience
Thanks for another awesome episode ladies! Love the Kaleidoscope cardi and all the hats Kim, and the Here Comes the Sun sweater looks gorgeous! Love Jonna’s long sock tube and Oslo hat looks soft and squishy. I miss Hill Country Weavers since I moved away from Austin. The Yoking book looks so fun, lovely color work sweater on the front cover. Thanks for the generous giveaway.
I enjoyed this episode so much! Chock full of inspiration. You both are such lovely knitters. So generous with your time, knitting wisdom and even those knitting challenges. Thank you!
Your podcasts are always a hoot! I love everything you knit! I think the book, Only Yoking, is a wonderful idea! Kim, please don't give up on your beetle. Maybe a VW dealership would be the way to go, if you haven't tried already. Hoping for the best! 🌼
Hardly noticed the noise, thanks for another fabulous episode. This was full of so much fun and I was smiling the whole way through. OMG Teddy!! What a lucky boy he is. Jonna your tip about counting rows by moving a stitch marker, after the BOR marker, along every time you do a row, has been so time saving. I used to stop and mark on paper each row and now I just whiz on by moving the stitch marker as I go along💪🏻 Happy knitting and see you next time 🥰
I watched this episode twice… once while knitting and another time while cleaning and cooking ❤❤❤ So lovely to see all you are making, the yarns, your favorite things… and at the end I had the giggles too ❤
This is my first visit to your podcast and I am so happy I stopped by for a listen. Loved it! Great chemistry between you two, wips, knits, yarns and more. Thank you. Especially enjoyed the end. You had me laughing along with you.
Kim, your Here Comes the Sun Sweater is stunning! I love, love the colors and your stitches are perfect! I hope to make a colorwork yoke sweater soon. Yours inspires me. So does Jonna’s Skeindeer Vest. I really would love to knit that. And your colors are also so beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration. ❤
Kim, love your Here Comes the Sun sweater! It reminds me of your flower VW. Jonna, I want to make your April cardigan! Thank you both for sharing your podcast with us.
Love your podcasts! You two are so lucky to have such a lovely yarn shop nearby. All my local yarn shops have closed ;( and it just isn't the same ordering yarn from the internet- you don't get to experience the "squish" factor. Smiled at the title of the "Only Yoking" book and absolutely love the yolk on the cover photo! Hope you chose my comment to win the book!
I think if I concentrate on one project, I can finish more projects like Kim! The sunny sweater is so pretty. Jonna, I visited Hill Country Weavers a few years ago. I was on a time crunch too because my family was in the car😀 Lovely store. What an awesome book of sweaters!
The sunshine sweater is so pretty. I think the 3rd time ripping would be my limit. I love the vest. So very pretty. Thanks for the great podcast and so happy it is a longer one! I have to sit and knit and I'm on a big project so I'm willing to sit and knit.
Hallo Ladies, it is so much fun for me to watch your Podcast. And the projects on your needles are so great and an Inspiration for me. And my knitting vocabular in english gets better every Day. And the book "only Yoking" seems like an Inspiration for all knitters who like to knit different yokes.
Hello 👋 I came across your podcasts recently and enjoy them very much. It’s like having company whilst I knit. I first discovered TH-cam knitting podcasts when I needed to learn about steeks so I could make a garment from a knitting magazine. It opened up a whole new world for me. I thought I was a good knitter after 50 years of knitting! I’ve learnt so much. From different styles of cast on and cast offs to knitting in the round and the wonderful world of unique yarns. I’d like to thank all the TH-cam podcasters that I watch but there are so many! Thank you for your very enjoyable podcast and the lovely inspiring designs. PS, I’m from a little seaside town in the UK 🇬🇧
Love the colours of Jona's vest. One helpful hint to share..if I borrow needles from one WIP for another project, I leave lightbulb stitch markers so I remember the needle size I was using.
Jonna, the color work on your Academic is beautiful- it just glows! Btw, the rule for divisibility by 4 is that if the last 2 digits are divisible by 4, then the number is. Thanks for your fun podcast!❤
So many beautiful wips! Thanks for the inspiration and keeping me company while I work on my projects. Your “Only Yoking” book looks like it would be really fun. I hope I win!
25:10 oh gosh! My cavapoo was exactly the same 😂 i got him secon-hand when he was 5 months old, no wonder his first owners didn't want to keep him. But I am telling you, a lot of love, patience and some training will help your puppy to grow up into a beautiful happy smart dog. My puppy suddenly changed short after 12 months. One day I came back home where he was all by himself, and I didn't find anything ruined, chewed or out of place, I was so happy and he realised that I am happy with him, he never destroyed anything again. He is 5yo now. They are very very smart dogs, and their main work is to make their humans happy 😊
@@KnitTogetherwithKimJonna oh, poor baby is teething. He'll be disappointed not to be able to chew on your rug anymore 😄 I always make sure my dog has chewable treats, those that are hard to eat fast, keeps him busy. But yes, until they change all their baby teeth they can't help it but to chew things.
Hi Kim and Jonna, I’ve been binge watching your podcasts and just love them. I have now caught up to watching your recent podcast. I’ve learned so much from both of you. I’m so inspired to try knitting so many items. Thank you for all the fun!
Hello beautiful ladies...🤗 I love your podcasts... Your amazing energy helps me to get through the situation, that my grandmom passed away 2 weeks ago... Thank you for sharing your positivity and knowledge in your unique way ... this brings the light to my days ❤️ Sending my love from the heart of Europe🤗
Thank you! I've since started a lone sock and I am definitely going back to my sock tube method. The afterthought heel fits perfectly....and no short rows!
Excellent episode as always! I’m always delighted to knit along with you and see what you’ve been working on and hearing all your future knitting plans! And of course, the Teddy updates 🐾
First, loving that red/pink sweater behind Jonna…wow. Sign me up for the Only Yoking book! 🎉 Also, really enjoyed seeing your WIPS. Kim, I made my weekender too big, so I feel you! Hopefully, you still love your HCTS as an FO! Looks great! ❤
Hi there! I love watching you two so much. You brighten my day! You asked for a tip of sorts that a pattern doesn't specify. I'm very generous with stitch markers. During cast-on, I set a ring marker every 20 sts. If I go right into ribbing, I'll keep them on for a few rounds to alert me if I get off pattern (if a knit comes before a marker, I know I'm off count). I also use them anywhere there is an established pattern--cables, lace, basketweave, dec/increases, etc. AND when I pick up stitches. This way I only have to count to 20 or so, and I can still be present for my family, TV, or whatever.
Hello Kim and Jonna. I’m so happy to have been able to sit down and get caught up with you both. Kim: I watched the episode with 5 of your grandchildren and I loved your finished socks and sweater and hat! Wonderful makes, all of them. Your video footage of the walk and visit to the farm was so much fun. That led me to this podcast which I’m loving as well. You two are so busy with all your knitting projects. Have fun with Max at the end of the month. I also watched he and Vincent today so I was aware of his forthcoming visit to NY. It was a good knitting/podcast day for me. Keep up the great shows and don’t worry about the background noise… doesn’t bother me a bit 😊
I wash all my knits when done knitting them. I never pin block to measurements. Instead, I remove excess water, then lay flat to dry, smoothing out the fabric without stretching it. Also, I did an experiment steam blocking versus wash and dry flat blocking, and the dried measurements were slightly different.
Hello Girls Kim I love your hair and cut Jonna I love your violet in your hair always Your knits are all beautiful Kim your sweater colour works is gorgeous Jonna can’t wait to see all your knits coming up Gorgeous gorgeous knits !!!! Love watching your pods and look forward to the next one Happy Easter enjoy your needles clicking it makes us happy !!! 💝😊💝🇨🇦🇨🇦
Hello Kim and Jonna! I’ve had my eye on Olga’s “Only Yoking” pattern book. I’ve watched your podcast from the beginning. Thank you for another enjoyable episode! I always learn something new about knitting every time I watch your podcast. ❤😊
Love the Sun jumper Kim! Jonna, have you seen Yamagara's Lapis pattern? I've made 3. One of which was for a friend after she lost her mum. She wears it to work over a dress and says it gives her a hug because it's her mum's favourite colours. It's fitted, a perfect spring/summer knit to go over dresses and keep of the chill of air con. It has a Russian graft and that's so cool, you'll never use Kitchener stitch again. It takes the smallest amount of yarn and gives the biggest impact ever. Thanks to both of you for the detailed episode.
I (Jonna) have the pattern! And the sister pattern, too. I loved them last year and never got around to making them. I even have yarn! Amy Palko made one of them, can’t remember, but it was stunning. I just need more time to knit 🤣
My daughter lives in Austin and one day gave me twenty five minutes in Hill Country Weavers- ah I needed two days. I have knit a lot for my grandkids and one of my favorite patterns is Simon and Simona it is unisex and it grows with the child from a tunic to a top. I have knit so many check it out. Add cute accent buttons to the older sizes just adorable.
Enjoyed your watching this. I'm always inspired by both of you. I like your academic vest and choice if colors. It's certainly on my lust to knit. Olga's book is awesome !
Fun episode Ladies😃 love the projects! I have knit one Brioche sweater. The Newspaper sweater by Joji. It took me 6 months. Every time I picked it up to work on. I would have Steven West in my head saying “not today!” He calls the yarn overs little shawls. his tutorials are hilarious. But sure helps you remember what you need to do. I learned so much knitting that sweater. Totally understand what your feeling with your vest Jonna. Kim your sweater looks amazing!
You both are so much fun! I am always so excited to sit and knit for a new episode. Kim, your Here Comes the Sun is so pretty! Jonna, you will be so happy with that Academic; the colors are sublime. You have both inspired me to make Oslo hats for Christmas presents. I need to call Pick Up Every Stitch and order the yarn for it. I highly recommend being a Cable 3! The Zoom was so much fun.
The Primrose through is going to be magnificent, Kim! Jonna your Academic vest is gorgeous! The Only Yolking book would be very cool to own! I will have to go find that Hosta bag pattern! Thank you!!! 🌸
Wonderful to visit with you today. Oh Kim I definitely hope your flower VW is fixable, we get so attached to our cars. Jonna so excited to hear you have another grand baby on the way. 💕 love the bloopers at the end. I think it’s fitting for Easter that the book has yolks 😎. Until next time.
What a happy podcast! As an introvert knitter I quite identify with Jonna, although sadly none of my friends are knitters 😢😢😢 So I LOVE everything that you talk about/showcase - including giveaways!!!
I always enjoy your videocasts. I have learned to use markers for each section I pick up on a garment. It really helps with the counting. Your idea of dividing front and back in half is a very good idea also. I will add that to my list of ideas. Thank you.
Just saw the yarn for Jonna’s new granddaughter Madeline 😍😍😍 I just made (this week) two vertebrae cardigans for girl/boy twins due in June. Super simple and quick and so adorable. And the concept behind the style is perfectly sensible🤓
Thank you so much about your honesty with knitting trouble. I regularly have difficulty joining in the round, so hearing Kim say to took her 20 attempts … I don’t feel like such a newbie. 🙏 for MY Teddy. He goes in for ACL surgery next Wednesday. I’ll be home with him for 5 weeks as he recovers, so I imagine I’ll have some knitting time. 🐾
I am glad about the warning about the background noise. It didn't bother me but it reminded me of a video I saw about someone living with schizo effective disorder. It might have been unsettling otherwise. I appreciate how considerate they were being. 🙂
Your Here Comes the Sun is lovely, Kim. And I would love to win her book too! I didn’t even notice the noise in the shop, I was expecting much worse from your little preview.
Thank you for your wonderful podcast! The only yoking book looks great! BTW - the background noise is barely noticeable and part of the charm of a knitting shop😊

Haha! Same!! I know he will settle down. And, happy to report, he's obeying the "drop" command a little better these days. Yay!
Kim, Your "Here Comes the Sun" is gorgeous! Can't wait to see how great it will look on you. So lovely to sit and knit with you both, as always.
Today’s podcast was so much fun! FYI there is no need to apologize for back ground noise in your videos, it’s just part of the charm of these shows. It’s relaxing sitting with friends and talking about knitting. Loved the Yolk book!

Great episode. I’m looking forward to the “Mouche” book too. Cuteness overload for sure.
Loving here comes the sun sweater. Gorgeous colors❤
Love your podcasts! You two are so lucky to have such a lovely yarn shop nearby. All my local yarn shops have closed ;( and it just isn't the same ordering yarn from the internet- you don't get to experience the "squish" factor. Smiled at the title of the "Only Yoking" book and absolutely love the yolk on the cover photo! Hope you chose my comment to win the book!

Beautiful colour work on your “Here Comes the Sun”
Love your podcast, my, you two knit non stop….hearing all about it is a joy………
So much fun in your video today. Your knitting is wonderful and very inspiring. Thank you. 🇬🇧
The noises were fine for me. The location is so wonderful and the customers are expected. The whispering is kind of cute...
The sunshine sweater is so pretty. I think the 3rd time ripping would be my limit. I love the vest. So very pretty. Thanks for the great podcast and so happy it is a longer one! I have to sit and knit and I'm on a big project so I'm willing to sit and knit.

Thanks for sharing!!
Jonna, the color work on your Academic is beautiful- it just glows!
Btw, the rule for divisibility by 4 is that if the last 2 digits are divisible by 4, then the number is.

Oh! That dropped stitch! I'm learning so much about colorwork from the two of you.
25:10 oh gosh! My cavapoo was exactly the same 😂 i got him secon-hand when he was 5 months old, no wonder his first owners didn't want to keep him. But I am telling you, a lot of love, patience and some training will help your puppy to grow up into a beautiful happy smart dog. My puppy suddenly changed short after 12 months. One day I came back home where he was all by himself, and I didn't find anything ruined, chewed or out of place, I was so happy and he realised that I am happy with him, he never destroyed anything again. He is 5yo now. They are very very smart dogs, and their main work is to make their humans happy 😊
Thank you for your sweet message. I just ordered tape for our rugs because he's eating the rug pads underneath!!

Fun episode Ladies😃 love the projects! I have knit one Brioche sweater. The Newspaper sweater by Joji. It took me 6 months. Every time I picked it up to work on. I would have Steven West in my head saying “not today!” He calls the yarn overs little shawls. his tutorials are hilarious. But sure helps you remember what you need to do. I learned so much knitting that sweater. Totally understand what your feeling with your vest Jonna. Kim your sweater looks amazing!
I love knitting while watching. I feel like I'm in a group!!!! Only yoking is gorgeous. I see another book in my future.
Love watching you ladies. Thanks for all the inspiration.
I love knitting sweaters so I would be very happy to have the “Only Yoking” book. I enjoy your podcasts!
You both are so much fun! I am always so excited to sit and knit for a new episode. Kim, your Here Comes the Sun is so pretty! Jonna, you will be so happy with that Academic; the colors are sublime. You have both inspired me to make Oslo hats for Christmas presents. I need to call Pick Up Every Stitch and order the yarn for it. I highly recommend being a Cable 3! The Zoom was so much fun.
The Primrose through is going to be magnificent, Kim! Jonna your Academic vest is gorgeous! The Only Yolking book would be very cool to own! I will have to go find that Hosta bag pattern! Thank you!!! 🌸
The 'ooooooh' I let out when I saw the Delhia sweater, it looks so lovely.
Wonderful to visit with you today. Oh Kim I definitely hope your flower VW is fixable, we get so attached to our cars. Jonna so excited to hear you have another grand baby on the way. 💕 love the bloopers at the end. I think it’s fitting for Easter that the book has yolks 😎. Until next time.
So right! 🐰
Have been enjoying your podcast for a year and you both have become my knitting buddies 😀
What a happy podcast! As an introvert knitter I quite identify with Jonna, although sadly none of my friends are knitters 😢😢😢 So I LOVE everything that you talk about/showcase - including giveaways!!!
Thanks for another nice time to knit with you both.
Great podcast. Love the sunshine sweater and academic vest. Love watching you ladies.
I always enjoy your videocasts. I have learned to use markers for each section I pick up on a garment. It really helps with the counting. Your idea of dividing front and back in half is a very good idea also. I will add that to my list of ideas. Thank you.
Dankeschön für die deutsche Strickerin 🧶👍❤️Freu mich schon auf binge watching Marion 😀- happy knitting 🧶
I always enjoy catching up with you both! Both of your colorwork is amazing! Thanks for the fun episode ladies!
Thanks for all the laughs and the knitting content is a bonus.
🤣
Just saw the yarn for Jonna’s new granddaughter Madeline 😍😍😍 I just made (this week) two vertebrae cardigans for girl/boy twins due in June. Super simple and quick and so adorable. And the concept behind the style is perfectly sensible🤓
💜 Jonna made the vertebrae cardigan for her grandson in 2020. The rocky pants from Tin Can Knits are a perfect bottom for the vertebrae. So cute!
You both have so many beautiful projects. Thanks for another great episode.
Oh those color work yokes. Beautiful. Want to knit all of them
So many beautiful projects! Thank you for sharing!
Hello! Oh my,I was just so happy to see that your podcast is 1h49.I love knitting with you both. You are such inspirational women.
🤣 yay...nice to get this comment, lol! We do try to speed through things but ???
I also like the longer podcast.
Same 🙌🏽
I love a good long podcast from you two Lovelies too!🎉🎉❤
I have only knitted raglan sweaters so far and would love to knit a yoke sweater. Olga's book would be such a lovely addition to my knitting library.
Thank you so much about your honesty with knitting trouble. I regularly have difficulty joining in the round, so hearing Kim say to took her 20 attempts … I don’t feel like such a newbie.
🙏 for MY Teddy. He goes in for ACL surgery next Wednesday. I’ll be home with him for 5 weeks as he recovers, so I imagine I’ll have some knitting time. 🐾
Prayers for Teddy!
I am glad about the warning about the background noise. It didn't bother me but it reminded me of a video I saw about someone living with schizo effective disorder. It might have been unsettling otherwise. I appreciate how considerate they were being. 🙂
Love your project bag sitting between the two of you
The bloopers! Is it weird it’s one of my favorite parts!. 😂
Ours too!
Your Here Comes the Sun is lovely, Kim. And I would love to win her book too! I didn’t even notice the noise in the shop, I was expecting much worse from your little preview.
Another great episode. That colour work sweater is so lovely.
Your knits are so lovely ! Especially the color work
Thank you for your wonderful podcast! The only yoking book looks great! BTW - the background noise is barely noticeable and part of the charm of a knitting shop😊
