Please please don't ever apologise for your lengthy podcasts - I could listen to you all day - so genuine and inspirational, such a kind soul, the world needs more people like you! I love the donkey bag!
Lovely episode Ruth - I am so pleased you are doing the make along again! All the makes are beautiful, the shawl for your friends wedding is going to be stunning! Looking forward to the podette too! Xx
Thanks Ruth for another lovely podcast. You have got me through most of my ironing pile. Your chatter and brilliant outlook on life really boosts me for the next few weeks. Take care Ruth best wishes Frances x
Dear Ruth, wonderful podcast, all the projects are so gorgeous !! I did a lace scarf once and was told to use a life line (although I never found out how to do it!) The lace shawl is just stunning! I started my fairy ring, up to the short rows, the John Arbon yarn is so nice. I’m doing mindfulness shawls for my whole family!! Thanks for all the inspiration !!
I look forward to your podcasts so much! I've been bingeing them and only have a few episodes to go. I won't know what to do when I actually have to wait for a new episode. You're wonderful and so fun. I'm going to try the Iza cardigan in the future and have saved it in Raverly! It's just beautiful!
Thank you, Ruth, for the joy of the Lord that you bring every time you podcast. I’m amazed at all the knitting you get done! Beautiful shawls, cardigan and socks. You are a lovely soul❤️ Suzette
Just a quick addition to my previous comment....thank you so much for the beautiful Bible lesson at the end of your video. It gave me much encouragement and edification.
I think it was the first row I just couldn't get but I wasn't keen on the wool either, I think I will have another go with the single colour. I knitted vanilla socks with the Christmas yarn. Love watching your videos. Thank you
Thank you so much for another lovely episode. So many beautiful projects on the needles. Really inspiring. Thank you for the uplifting words at the end. It is good to know that no matter our circumstances, our Heavenly Father has always promised to be with us. I experience this every day! God bless you and your loved ones, Ruth! I'm already looking forward to your next episode :) Love from Anne
Thanks ,,,So much Ruth!!!!love UR chats and projects!!! Excited for the Kal too,,,,, DOING simple shawls right now,,,,So perfect,,,, Love all yours,,,,, And Urs mums sweater!!!! Elaine🏡🏡🏡🏘
I'm looking forward to the KAL 😁. Currently I'm working on a Half and Half Wrap, but it's long-term in-the-car knitting. I've been wanting to try the Pressed Flowers shawl, but have a couple of birthday knits to finish first. And now...a new pattern has come out, the Fenwick shawl....it's so beautiful!
Dear Ruth, greetings from Florida, USA! I just found your podcast yesterday and got hooked! I started binge-watching your videos, enjoying your fun and upbeat style. Your aesthetics are the same as mine, with your bright colors. Thank you for sharing the shawl patterns. I immediately purchased the Mindfulness Shawl and the Sun Glitter Shawl. Looking forward to your projects and sunny personality! 🙂
I just want to say thank you for not only mentioning us but for watching us as well. Again, your episode has brought laughter and joy into my day. I have already used your big arm muscles statement with my daughter “look how strong my arms are”. Your shawls are amazing. I know you’ve done the same one a few times now but they each look different just by your different yarn selection. Thank you for another great episode and another much needed message.
Hi Ruth, I truly enjoy your podcasts. Your smile and laughter is so contagious! 🥰You are so talented! Will be casting on a shawl for your Knit Along starting in July 2022! Beautiful job on your moms sweater, great color! 🧶 Happy Knitting. God bless!
Hello Ruth… new subscriber…Look forward to catching up on your previous podcasts. I’m living in Devon too😉 oh goodness… forgot to mention I attended Exmouth chapel for over 30 years 😉
Oh Ruth, I so enjoyed the giggles with you tonight! I'm so thankful I stumbled across your podcast and decided to stop for a visit with you! You brought much joy to my day and I can't wait to watch more. You are a breath of fresh air! I am Jamie from the Deep South, Georgia, USA. Thank you for a lovely podcast!
You radiate Gods love! Ruth what a wonderful talent you have in your knitting, seeing your remarkable fos and wips encourages me with my knitting. So glad I came across your channel😊😁💖🇺🇸
So lovely to see your progress on the Tidal Wrap Ruth - it's looking fabulous! Well done on tinking the 10 rows, that's quite an achievement with any lace! Love your other projects too, & the KAL sounds tempting!
Thank you Ruth, for sharing the Scripture with us. I can see Jesus in you! I'm a new subscriber to your channel from US and so enjoyed your enthusiasm and love for our Lord and to serving Him by bringing the Gospel to your viewers. You are a very talented knitter and I loved all the FOs, WIPs, patterns and yarn you shared. Have a blessed day!🥰
So glad to visit again. Shawls are so much fun. While I don't have EDS, but I am certainly a zebra medically. It took 20 years to get a useful cardology dx among other things. Worry is problem to. It's late evening but thunderstorms are hitting the area as well as all the world's gone crazy. I will just keep praying and stitching.
Always a Joy to hear from you each episode. How do you knit your socks? I have given up as I can't get good tension with 1 or 2 size needle & always get runners. Tried 5 dpn's + addi flexi. Maybe I'll try circular next.
Hey Ruth! For a new knitter, how challenging would the lace on the Iza cardigan be? I've done one cardigan that was pretty plain (and basically took forever to knit!), and now I'm thinking of branching out. Thanks!
Hello Ruth, I live in Montreal Canada and I’ve watched you since your first episode. I always enjoy your podcasts. I would like to join your KAL however I use mostly acrylic yarns because I’m allergic to wool. Fernanda sort of criticized the use of acrylic in one of her videos and now I don’t feel like I could join. Can you please ask her if it would be okay for someone like me to join? Thank you 🙏
You absolutely can join. I am sorry you felt she criticised it. I think she just prefers wool but everyone has preferences. Please don't be put off. Everyone and every yarn is welcome. Xxx
Hi Ruth, Another lovely podcast, your projects are beautiful and you are so inspiring. I felt your pain with the 'just one more row' late at night. I did the same thing while knitting the Fairyhill Shawl by Helen Stewart, only last night I found myself unpicking a beaded row and putting it right until the small hours! Take care.
I just discovered your podcast and it is delightful! Thank you so much for the entertainment! I'm thinking of participating in your KAL too - I love a good KAL.
This is the 1st time I've seen your podcast and this is also the 1st time I've ever commented. I just had to tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed watching and listening. You are adorable and I so relate to everything you talked about "One more row" made me laugh out loud because I did that last night. Thank you also for sharing your faith and scriptures. I live by faith and love hearing the word. I'm also a nurse. !!!!. I will be looking for you...knitting and sharing God's words. Thank you again from sunny northwest Fl. US.
What a beautiful vlog! Thank you and I loved 🥰 💕 the prayer at the end. Very beautiful. Thank you for sharing all your beautiful makes and sharing the joy of the Lord. 🤗
Good evening Ruth, what a wonderful podcast as always, the cardie for your mum is absolutely stunning and look forward to seeing it complete, and the colours in your mindfulness shawl are amazing, it's definitely a pattern I want to have a look at I know exactly what you mean about that one more row syndrome lol, we have all been there and made that mistake, and what an amazing pattern. The wedding shawl will be spectacular, and what a wonderful shawl for a wedding, I have always wanted to knit a traditional Shetland cobweb wedding ring shawl, but I have got a ball of Shetland cobweb yarn to knit a lace scarf first, its knit on 2mm needles, my main problem is the pattern is in chart form which I really don't like, so I might write it all out before I start knitting it. I love watching most of the podcasts you mentioned,and especially after one of Tonya and Anthony cast on party, I don't have zoom but I still take part in my own way and in the last one I cast on a shawl, which I have only just done the first couple of inches because I have been working on the 4 garments I cast on that day so I will keep my shawl to the side to 1st July for your kal. Wooow absolutely love your donkey bag its fantastic, definitely one you had to get. We all worry no matter how hard we try not to, I have health issues at the moment and I really do try to put my fears aside, but my biggest worry isn't for me or even my grown up kids, its for my wee 4yr old great grandson and 7mth old great granddaughter, what is this world going to be like for them when they are older and their children after that. Take care,God Bless from Scotland xx
The color of the Mindfulness Shawl that you are wearing is a very nice color on you. Deuteronomy 31:8 is one of my daily memory verses to recite. I added it on March 11, the day of my husband's visitation, the day before his memorial service. It is a good reminder to me that even though my husband has gone to heaven, God is always with me.
I could not resist getting the pattern for the mindfulness shawl! I like the ideal of your KAL. However, I do not do not know how to due the 'threads' etc. I need a tutor!! ...
I love watching your podcasts especially your end piece which was just what I needed to hear. .I worry more so in the middle of the night after a ''loo'' trip!! In future I shall make myself go over what you have said! These times are not easy for anyone. I do a lot of knitting and there are two things I have on my ''to do'' list but then change my mind. One is a top down cardigan and the other a shawl. Regards Sandra
Your podcast is as long as it needs to be. I could listen for longer if you need the time. I think it’s more important that you choose the schedule that suits you and let the length determine itself. Please do whatever it takes to enjoy yourself. Hugs from Florida. Deborah
Thank you so much,I watch the podcast for the knitting, but your words at the end are so meaningfull, thank you again, they open my eyes for the things I closed them for a long time who!
I love to see your donkeys l have been knitting donkeys for the sanctuary At Sidmouth for a long time l have a box to take down the next time l am in Devon.
Hi Ruth, I have a question about another podcaster actually, and I thought you might know. Just before Christmas I saw Nikki on Sheep and Cheerful podcast and thought I would really enjoy her podcast, as she was a Christian and a knitter, but then that was the last I heard of her! I am just a bit worried that possibly something bad happened and she couldn’t make any more podcasts. I just thought you could help me find out about her and I thank you so much. I am concerned. I am enjoying your podcasts so much as well. Thank you.
Hi Ruth! I love your podcast and have really loved both your pattern and podcast recommendations. Could you please point me in the direction of the podcast you mentioned with the Swedish maker who does everything? It sounds perfect! Thanks in advance!
I have long covid, and I’m on oxygen and will be for the rest of my life, and I can’t see well enough to drive anymore, so my trips to town have to be carefully planned because of oxygen and fatigue and around other people’s schedules. Some days are worse than others, so thank you for the reminder.
Thanks for the shout out! I actually live with 4 mad cats but the older 2 are less trouble these days 😅Also a sufferer of EDS as is my eldest son, so love that you're helping to raise awarness. My eldest can pull his skin out like a cartoon character....it's both disgusting and rivetting at the same time 😵💫My husband hates the smell of wet wool too! Wierdo that he is! 🤔X
Love your podcast U know, the sunshine come om today i really need that. Love all the inspirasjon! Thank you. I still think of making my podcast on english aswell ,Will C ,but then i can show all my english speaking friends all my stuff. Hope you have a wonderfull spring ,finally Are the snow gone here, 🤗😍🌞🌻love Gurli
Thank you so much for sharing your knitting with us. I love to watch to see what you are up to. Matthew 6:34 is my favorite verse. I have repeated it to myself many times over the last few years, because there is a lot to worry about. It brings comfort. Thank you for the podcast, I hope you have a great week!
Love the cardigans. Both are very pretty. I totally agree with that late night “one more row” when we are tired. I have not learnt my lesson yet and could kick myself every time i make a mistake from not quitting while my brain was still engaged 🙈🤣. Xx
Hi Ruth, Looking for your show notes as I usually do but can't seem to find them. Glad to hear there will be a KAL again this year. I'm looking forward to it. I'm loving your podcast and your laughter and enthusiasm. I have knit the shawl you're wearing twice but there will be more!
Hi Ruth, received your podcast ok, so lovely to see you, and your cheerful smile which always makes me happy, hope all your family is well, I'm afraid my needles haven't been clicking, It's just been a really busy time lately, and thank you as always for the spiritual messages which are a blessing and give me hope, happy knitting Ruth, take care Sarah from Australia, 💌😇
Lovely vlog Ruth. I found you from Sam ( the lovely Irish Knitter) and delighted he mentioned you. I am now one of your new subscribers. What is such a refreshing change is that you are able to mention your brilliant knitting and the super funny way you have in telling us about your knits but also your end scripture chats. I played a very active part in the Methodist Church until I moved away but feel it is such a joy to have knitting and some scripture running side by side. Well done 👏🧶
Ruth, 💜 that lovely cardi you're making your Mom is just gorgeous. I must also follow the pod with the son who had a TBI bc I started knitting after about ten years off, after I had my own TBI, 3 years ago this Saturday. It for sure changed my life plans.. But it also for sure that knitting had been awesome rehab being it uses both hands, and thus, both sides of the brain. I'm also getting treatment where I fly to Chicago a few times a year, that also has helped. I will have to see if he and I are going to the same place! I do enjoy your little giggles and quips, such as, "just another row" 😂 very relatable!! 🐸
What an adventure! Selma from little big knits mentioned you about 2 weeks ago and I have just finished binge watching all episodes! Pure joy! Along the way I have purchased many patterns. Ruth, you bring such pleasure to so many of us. Thank you!!!!!
Thanks for another lovely episode. Looking forward to the shawl knit along in july! :) I love the shawls you showed. I just started my first shawl. I'm getting married this saturday and apparently is probably going to get cloudy and maybe rain here in Sweden, so I started a shawl to have over my shoulders, in cotton yarn. Just in case it gets a bit chilly...
Thanks for another lovely time ! I love all your shawls, think the cotton colourful one looks very cheerful. And the cardigans ! Great to learn that there will be another shawl kal this year. I will surely be in - already have a pattern and the yarn ready here. In fact, I was about to start, sort of, but then I got to be one of some happy few for a testknit, so I've been happily swatching while watching. The deadline for said knit will be July 5th, very convenient ! So, we've been having both rain and sunshine here today ( it involved a second outfit after some shopping... ), and just when I got to listen to the last segment of this episode, there's a rainbow here 😍
Lords richest blessings. Love your mindful shawls!
Thank you x
💞💞💞 Absolutely wonderful podcast, Ruth. May the Lord bless you and keep you. 💞💞💞
And you Debbie x
Love the blue cardigan.

@jibbyroosews so sorry about show notes. Will try again today x
Thank you Ruth for a nice podcast. Have you considered knitting the “hitch hiker” scarf? Btw love the rain.
I have knit the hitch hiker a few times for gifts x

Thanks Ruth for another lovely podcast. You have got me through most of my ironing pile. Your chatter and brilliant outlook on life really boosts me for the next few weeks. Take care Ruth best wishes Frances x
Oh boy I still have to tackle my ironing pile this week. Thanks for watching x
Dear Ruth, wonderful podcast, all the projects are so gorgeous !! I did a lace scarf once and was told to use a life line (although I never found out how to do it!) The lace shawl is just stunning! I started my fairy ring, up to the short rows, the John Arbon yarn is so nice. I’m doing mindfulness shawls for my whole family!! Thanks for all the inspiration !!
Wow you are busy. I have used lifelines in the past but of course another time I don't take my own advice 😂
I just remembered, the lace scarf was from Jojoland . I think you would love their patterns!
Must have a look thanks x
You are a joy to spend time with! I'm so glad I've found your podcast!
I am glad you found my podcast too. Thank you x

I think it was the first row I just couldn't get but I wasn't keen on the wool either, I think I will have another go with the single colour. I knitted vanilla socks with the Christmas yarn. Love watching your videos. Thank you
I can send you what I worked out for the 1st row if you need it. I had to ask for help.
Oh please if you wouldn't mind that would be so kind. Thank you x
Can you give me a wee email or dm on insta please.

I'm looking forward to the KAL 😁. Currently I'm working on a Half and Half Wrap, but it's long-term in-the-car knitting. I've been wanting to try the Pressed Flowers shawl, but have a couple of birthday knits to finish first. And now...a new pattern has come out, the Fenwick shawl....it's so beautiful!
I think I will have to out shawl names in a hat and pick one or 6 that way 😂😂

Thank you for another wonderful podcast. Your cardigans are beautiful and that new knitting bag is awesome. Those donkeys are adorable!!!
I really love it too x
Good evening Ruth, what a wonderful podcast as always, the cardie for your mum is absolutely stunning and look forward to seeing it complete, and the colours in your mindfulness shawl are amazing, it's definitely a pattern I want to have a look at
I know exactly what you mean about that one more row syndrome lol, we have all been there and made that mistake, and what an amazing pattern.
The wedding shawl will be spectacular, and what a wonderful shawl for a wedding, I have always wanted to knit a traditional Shetland cobweb wedding ring shawl, but I have got a ball of Shetland cobweb yarn to knit a lace scarf first, its knit on 2mm needles, my main problem is the pattern is in chart form which I really don't like, so I might write it all out before I start knitting it.

I am so sorry for your loss but so glad you can find some comfort in scripture x
Aren't you the most lovely person in the world!?!? Thanks so much for the beautiful shoutout :)
Well we need to keep our love alive 😂😂😂 The fact that I don’t know any other Italian knitters might not be such a big compliment for you x
@@ruthlovestoknitpodcast well…I just discovered a lady called Francesca that does ‘an Italian knitting podcast’ she’s brilliant!
Bet she doesnt have a yellow kettle though 😉

I could not resist getting the pattern for the mindfulness shawl! I like the ideal of your KAL. However, I do not do not know how to due the 'threads' etc. I need a tutor!! ...

Thanks x
I just discovered your podcast and I love it. Absolutely delightful.
Thank you x
I tried to knit them socks but couldn't get the gist of the pattern. They look fabulous in one colourway.
The first row really threw me but after that it was ok. Sorry you couldn't get to grips with the pattetn x

Hi Ruth, I have a question about another podcaster actually, and I thought you might know. Just before Christmas I saw Nikki on Sheep and Cheerful podcast and thought I would really enjoy her podcast, as she was a Christian and a knitter, but then that was the last I heard of her! I am just a bit worried that possibly something bad happened and she couldn’t make any more podcasts. I just thought you could help me find out about her and I thank you so much. I am concerned.
I am enjoying your podcasts so much as well. Thank you.
Hi I just spoke with her last week. Life has just got super busy for her x
@@ruthlovestoknitpodcast thank you so much! I guess not to worry! Blessings!
Did you knit your Mindfulness shawl with fingering yarn or Dk? I ordered the pattern & it says Dk so I'm confused. Thank you, Rosemary in USA
I did both. I just adjusted the needle size. I knit a little bit to see if I liked the fabric then adjusted needle size accordingly.
@@ruthlovestoknitpodcast Thank you!
Such incredibly beautiful knitting! Thank you for sharing, love your podcast and look forward to each noe 😊
Thank you x
Hi Ruth! I love your podcast and have really loved both your pattern and podcast recommendations. Could you please point me in the direction of the podcast you mentioned with the Swedish maker who does everything? It sounds perfect! Thanks in advance!

I have long covid, and I’m on oxygen and will be for the rest of my life, and I can’t see well enough to drive anymore, so my trips to town have to be carefully planned because of oxygen and fatigue and around other people’s schedules. Some days are worse than others, so thank you for the reminder.
You are really going through it. I hope podcasts and knitting can give you a little bit of relief from time to time x
Thanks for the shout out! I actually live with 4 mad cats but the older 2 are less trouble these days 😅Also a sufferer of EDS as is my eldest son, so love that you're helping to raise awarness. My eldest can pull his skin out like a cartoon character....it's both disgusting and rivetting at the same time 😵💫My husband hates the smell of wet wool too! Wierdo that he is! 🤔X
Oh I didn’t know you had EDS. You are a very special Zebra xx
Love your podcast U know, the sunshine come om today i really need that. Love all the inspirasjon! Thank you. I still think of making my podcast on english aswell ,Will C ,but then i can show all my english speaking friends all my stuff. Hope you have a wonderfull spring ,finally Are the snow gone here, 🤗😍🌞🌻love Gurli
Just do what you love. Podcasting must be fun in any language x
Tracey at Grizzlie knits mentioned you in her podcast. Enjoying finding this podcast. Mindfulness shawl what weight do you use? I’m in U.S. thanks
Oh I like Tracey’s podcasts too. The pattern is for sport/DK but I just change the needle size for fingering weight. Suits any yarn I think x
Thank you so much for sharing your knitting with us. I love to watch to see what you are up to. Matthew 6:34 is my favorite verse. I have repeated it to myself many times over the last few years, because there is a lot to worry about. It brings comfort. Thank you for the podcast, I hope you have a great week!
So glad you are finding comfort in God's word. Thanks for watching x
Hi Ruth, I just can't find that pattern for the beautiful socks on Winwick Mum. Can you help please.
It was a free pattern from yarn shops at Christmas. If your LYS sells West Yorkshire Spinners yarn they should have it.
@@ruthlovestoknitpodcast Thank you Ruth.
If you are in the UK I can send you my copy x
@@ruthlovestoknitpodcast That is so kind.I would very much appreciate it Ruth.Please can I email you my address?
The only yarn shop in my area of Wales is 2 buses and an hour's journey away !
Love the cardigans. Both are very pretty.
I totally agree with that late night “one more row” when we are tired. I have not learnt my lesson yet and could kick myself every time i make a mistake from not quitting while my brain was still engaged 🙈🤣. Xx
I rarely learn 😭. Thanks for watching x
Hi Ruth, Looking for your show notes as I usually do but can't seem to find them. Glad to hear there will be a KAL again this year. I'm looking forward to it. I'm loving your podcast and your laughter and enthusiasm. I have knit the shawl you're wearing twice but there will be more!
So sorry. I am havibg problems uploading the show notes. Hopefully soon x
Hi Ruth, received your podcast ok, so lovely to see you, and your cheerful smile which always makes me happy, hope all your family is well, I'm afraid my needles haven't been clicking,
It's just been a really busy time lately, and thank you as always for the spiritual messages which are a blessing and give me hope, happy knitting Ruth, take care Sarah from Australia, 💌😇
There are seasons in life when busy times hit. Your needles will always be there when it quietens down x
Lovely vlog Ruth. I found you from Sam ( the lovely Irish Knitter) and delighted he mentioned you. I am now one of your new subscribers. What is such a refreshing change is that you are able to mention your brilliant knitting and the super funny way you have in telling us about your knits but also your end scripture chats. I played a very active part in the Methodist Church until I moved away but feel it is such a joy to have knitting and some scripture running side by side. Well done 👏🧶
Combining my two loves x
Ruth, 💜 that lovely cardi you're making your Mom is just gorgeous. I must also follow the pod with the son who had a TBI bc I started knitting after about ten years off, after I had my own TBI, 3 years ago this Saturday. It for sure changed my life plans.. But it also for sure that knitting had been awesome rehab being it uses both hands, and thus, both sides of the brain. I'm also getting treatment where I fly to Chicago a few times a year, that also has helped. I will have to see if he and I are going to the same place! I do enjoy your little giggles and quips, such as, "just another row" 😂 very relatable!! 🐸
Amazing that knitting has helped in your rehab. Yes check out Karma's a stitch x
What an adventure! Selma from little big knits mentioned you about 2 weeks ago and I have just finished binge watching all episodes! Pure joy! Along the way I have purchased many patterns. Ruth, you bring such pleasure to so many of us. Thank you!!!!!
Oh wow thanks for your support. Happy knitting x
Thanks for another lovely episode. Looking forward to the shawl knit along in july! :) I love the shawls you showed. I just started my first shawl. I'm getting married this saturday and apparently is probably going to get cloudy and maybe rain here in Sweden, so I started a shawl to have over my shoulders, in cotton yarn. Just in case it gets a bit chilly...
Oh my goodness Congratulations. I hope you have the most amazing day. So glad you will join our KAL x
Lovely podcast as usual. Love all your makes and your sharing about our wonderful Saviour. Thank you x
Thanks for watching x
Beautiful! sweater! I have enjoyed all your makes. As always, I am so encouraged by your sharing of the truth.
Thank you x
Hello from New Zealand. Thank you Ruth for a wonderful uplifting, joyous podcast. I love your energy and attitude.
Thanks for watching x
Thanks for another lovely time ! I love all your shawls, think the cotton colourful one looks very cheerful. And the cardigans !
Great to learn that there will be another shawl kal this year. I will surely be in - already have a pattern and the yarn ready here. In fact, I was about to start, sort of, but then I got to be one of some happy few for a testknit, so I've been happily swatching while watching. The deadline for said knit will be July 5th, very convenient !
So, we've been having both rain and sunshine here today ( it involved a second outfit after some shopping... ), and just when I got to listen to the last segment of this episode, there's a rainbow here 😍
So glad you will join our KAL. Love that the rainbow always appears xx
I am watching at 9 Tuesday morning in Michigan USA. You brighten up my day. Love your podcast!
Thanks. Have a great day x
