Dear Sweet Dani, what a special treat it is to sit and knit with you for a bit. Your channel came highly recommended; I've been watching for about 3 years now. Really enjoy your kind and gentle spirit the beautiful simplicity of your patterns and your lovely projects. Taking care of your family and sweet little Bobbins is priority right now; those who love & follow you will always be here when you get a chance to share. Hoping all is well with your mum; love seeing her handy work also Here's wishing your and yours a safe and wonderful New Year filled with blessings!! 💖🥰✨🙏
I just watched your last podcast. It was lovely to spend some time with you. While I hope to see more podcasts, I certainly understand the need to spend precious time with your son.
You know there are lots of Mums who grow their sons hair out, Celine Dion for one, but many more , it’s hard to cut their beautiful soft baby hair. You’ll never please everybody so why let some bother you, some people are just miserable. I feel sorry for them , their lives must be awful for them to be so unhappy and try to make others feel bad. I enjoyed seeing a video from you today, lovely seeing your patterns and projects. Take care, be safe and well and have a Very Merry Christmas 🤶🏼 🎅🏼🎄🙋🏼♀️
I feel quite the same 🥰 it's just quite strange people being so rude when you would never speak that way to someone else. Thank you for watching! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas 🎄
Argh that made me so mad to hear the grief your getting with your son's hair, it's no one's business!! I was so sorry to hear about Bobbin he's a gorgeous dog!! At least you know and are able to deal with it!! It's lovely to see you back again it's made me smile to see your newest video!!xx
You are not forgotten... in fact, I miss your podcast because you have a particular way about you that is just warm and calming, creative, funny, sweet... I share only to tell you that you in yourself are missed, BUT with perfect understanding and support of your being unable to podcast as much as you would like. But the occasional video is worth the wait 💕And knowing they might come out around Christmas will be something so nice to look forward to. Merry Christmas to you and your mother! I loved those videos with both of you, and so hope she too is well. Wish you all the best, Lynne
How lovely to see you and Bobbin! I miss your podcasts, but being a full-time hands on Mummy is such an important job and we'll all be here when you have time again to podcast.
Hi so you were a suggestion and I only just watched this a few weeks late. I was a vet assistant when our male cat, sweet Simon, he was only 8 years old.. Went in for dental and they saw he had an enlarged heart. This was after losing our first male cat to the same at just 2 years! It's so hard and my heart goes out to you. I always felt like every day was a bonus in a way but it's hard anyway. Hugs. I love knitting! Those trees with bobbles are so special!
So nice to see you again. Hate to hear of Little Bobbins heart murmur. He has always been so sweet and well behaved on your podcast. Your patterns are so precious and sweet. Hope your mum is doing well. Happy Holiday from Indiana, USA.
What a nice surprise to have a video from you! I hope that you and your family are enjoying the holiday season. Best wishes for a happy & healthy New Year! I hope to see another video from you in the not too distant future😊
It’s so good to see you again, Dani! I’ve had a year of not being able to knit or sew or bake. I just didn’t have the energy to think or plan. I couldn’t even read books really. I couldn’t concentrate. The only thing I’d be able to do on occasion was spin, but I wasn’t able to finish any projects. Towards the end of my year of not making, my sister convinced me to try weaving and helped me set up my loom, and I made a few dishcloths, which felt good, but I didn’t continue. Finally, this past week I was visiting with family and saw my sister knitting socks and I suddenly knew that I needed to knit some plain vanilla socks. I ran out and bought some sock yarn and needles and started knitting. One sock is done and I’ve already turned the heel on the second sock! It is such a relief to be knitting again! I wonder how many of us are out there who haven’t been able to make this past year and how many of us have finally discovered something that calls us back to making? It seems to have started something in me - yesterday I made a batch of bread dough and made dinner rolls, cinnamon rolls, and a family recipe that is essentially a custard baked in a shell of bread dough - trust me, it’s delicious! 😄 I’m curious to see what else I’m inspired to make! Thank you so much for recording! It really is lovely to see you again! I hope you had a happy Christmas and have a happy New Year!
It was soo lovely to see a new podcast from you! Even before I saw you had a podcast up I was knitting your Cyril socks in a Christmas colorway so the diamond part looked like Christmas balls. And I was using one of your Christmas dpn cosies from way back when! It felt wonderful to be knitting with you!
My sons hair was so lovely thick and I just allowed it to grow. You willNEVER be forgotten . You are one of the most memorable people I have come to know. I did have sons hair cut when at school they played in the sandbox. My 6th grade teacher intro Duce me to Narnia. Oh how I loved them. So awesome wonderful to see you again. Dani in the spring we were down for covid. I have lung problems so I was careful, I watched you.r podcasts again because I could always imagine sitting in the room with you and your lovely Mother. I am 68, my mother has been gone ,for a long time. I certainly miss her still. Thank you# for doing this. Love love loved it. I will be thinking about you God bless you and your family, Merry Christmas and WONDERFUL NEW YEAR.
It's good to see you Dani. Your son's hair is lovely, I don't know what's wrong with some people. Thank you for sharing your beautiful projects. Happy New Year :-)
Dear dear Dani, it is so lovely to hear from you and Bobbins and Teddy - especially at Christmas. I hope your mum is very well too. The Christmas eve cast on became a tradition I've celebrated each year. Each year I think of you, as I pick out my special yarn for the occasion. I wish you and your family a lovely Christmas and a Happy New Year. lots of love , xxx.
Don't let rude people get the best of you. My son has had long hair most of his life but I remember people making comments about it ......he is 36 now and has beautiful strawberry blond hair to his shoulders 😍 Beautiful knitting!
Hi Dani, I really enjoyed your podcast and look forward to watching more. I’m the same way about my yarn and quilt fabric, not wanting to use them because they are so pretty. I’m going to knit the primrose pudding socks for my granddaughter also loved the bear and the Hydrangea blanket.
Dear Dear Dear Dani ! ok........ I HAVE to tell you....... I am SO OVER THE MOON that you gifted us all with your presence and Christmas visit ! " Forget you '" ????? OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Just the Complete opposite....... MISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSED YOU !!!!!!!!!! Your patterns - if you had not come forth today..... I would have NOT known about your new releases...... and I am SMITTEN over them. Casting on these Christmas socks on the 24th. I knit my first pair of socks over your trees pattern with bauble on tops all around the cuff - 3-4 years ? ago . This Covid nightmare has skewed time frames for me ! Definitely now casting on with you - and THAT is SUCH a treat. Dani ~it saddened me to hear of the disheartening comments over your lovely little boy. I thought appropriate/comfortable glimpses of him we're simply PREEEEEEEEEEECIOUS ! Please reconsider overriding the negative nellies out there - to be able to not let them put a kibosh on the whole of us that celebrate him with you. Of course , I respect your wishes , and what you are willing ti be subjected to. Just a shame that that happened AT ALL !!!! Hoping your Mom is well - Hoping YOU come back and post soon again - as I SO am fond of you, GREAT to see Bobbins ( Bless his SWEET heart ). Have got to get a visual of handsome Teddy Pom Pm and.... Merlin ????? Did I Miss this ? I Don't recall having the pleasure of an introduction. Lastly, THANK YOU Thank you .SWEEEEET Dani, for this FABULOUS surprise - SO WELCOMED. Oodles of warmest, best wishes to you , and your loved ones . Hi to your dear Mother. Be both safe and well lovely lady. (((hugs))) marcia
You are so kind Marcia 🥰 I do hope you enjoy the pattern! I thought the same thing, I have had so many lovely comments from kind people and I have also enjoyed looking back at the brief glimpses of my son in the videos, why is it the nasty ones seem to stick so much more. It's important to me to respect his privacy too so its a tricky thing to navigate all around really. I want to show him off all of the time and shout from the rooftops how incredible he is but keep him safe and private at the same time 😄 It's quite a dilemma 😄🥰 I will try and catch Teddy Bear next time. He is such a funny boy. Merlin is mums cat. He is Teddy's brother and such a character ❤
Oh, Dani. I am so sorry that you got such comments about your son. You will not please everyone, it is really up to you always. It is so nice to see you. It will be my 3rd year of Christmas Eve cast ons. I can’t wait. Your sock pattern this year is gorgeous. ❤️ We will always be here when you podcast! 😊
Hi Dani, it's so lovely to see you again. It's really funny that you mentioned the country house retreat, with Curious handmade Helen, as that is how I initially found you. I had just found knitting podcasts and Mina went to the retreat, I think that it was 2015 or 16 not totally sure. But you Mina and Paula did a little chat on the podcast. I started to follow you and Paula then. I love your knits, the socks look really cute. I hadn't seen selfstriping yarn from Down Sheepy Lane before. I will need to pop notifications on for her Instagram. Sending you and your family lots of love and hugs and Merry Christmas wishes. 🎄🎁😁🎉💕
What a calming and inspiring podcast Dani.I made the hydrangea blanket for my daughter when she was pregnant and it adorns the nursing chair where my toddler grandson gets all the snuggles and bedtime stories,I now like to think it now has all that love within it.Those blankets are dens,tents,picnic rugs and anything else one can imagine.Plus you can chuck them in the washing machine!!!
I had to write you a comment…I went and checked your channel the other day because I just thought I wonder if she will put out a new video…and then a few days later you did! How nice. I loved catching up with you. Merry Christmas, Shannon
I have insomnia so was happy to see you posted. You do what you think is right for your son, mine had long ringlets when he was little until he decided he wanted to look more like a boy (as if he didn't look like one already). People are always ready to tell you what you're doing wrong with everything in your life so I try to do the opposite and tell people what they do right. Don't worry about the podcast, it was lovely and calming and sort of like having a chat with a friend. Stay healthy and just love that boy, he'll be just fine.
so nice to spend some time with you Dani. Enjoyed your podcast so much. Please share with us whenever you have the time and energy to podcast - no matter how long it's been. Wishing you and those you love a very Merry Holiday and New Year.
Jana of the podcast Finish knitting stories says we actually have 2 hobbies: knitting is one hobby and buying yarn is another hobby! Glad you are happy and doing well, so nice to see your podcast today!
What a treat! So lovely to catch up. Gorgeous makes and patterns, and the sweetest bear face... Look forward to seeing the hot choc socks - my Christmas Eve cast on this year was a very cosy cowl. Happy New Year!
Loved spending some gentle time with your special self. I leaned into blankets for comfort while in stay at home orders. Don’t have to schlep them anywhere. I now have a dolly cart for yarn management and it makes me happy.
Merry Christmas! It is such a treat to see you again! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your lovely family🎄 Thank you so much for sharing all your beautiful knitting projects.
What an absolute delight it was to have this visit with you, Dani. I have so missed your videos but I'm also always happy to go back and rewatch old ones. Such a peaceful presence.
Lovely to see you again! Beautiful blankets - your mindless knitting, where mine is dish cloths! Keep up the good work, whatever and whenever suits you. It's not rambling, it's lovely friendly chat. Happy New Year xxx
Oh Dani. My heart broke for you a little when I heard you got grief about your gorgeous boy with his long hair. I have three boys who choose to have long hair and yes the swooshing plays a big part. It’s gorgeous!!! Lots of love to you all.
Wow, eight years of Christmas Eve cast ons! What a treat that you were able to share your new pattern and have a lovely catch up. Enjoy, enjoy,enjoy all your precious moments with your little boy, they become a cherished memory much to quickly. Am especially excited for this year’s cast on, since I’ve wanted to try Norah George yarns, this was the perfect reason to get a set and your pattern all in one. Wishing you and your family’s very happy holiday season.
Oh lovely! I do hope you enjoy it! I can't believe how quickly it goes Barbara, growing up so fast but just continues to constantly delight us. He is such an angel! 🥰
I love everything about your channel. I have headboard just like yours except mine is a rich brown. 4 little old ladies made mine. Those women were so connected they finish sentence for one another. I wish I could bring them home with me. I envisioned many cakes cookies and tea. ***There is only one you what you bring to a podcast is a treasure only you can share. But I understand. My son is 47 , he had the most beautiful blonde hair, it was long. I breastfed both my babies. My precious Mother died while I was pregnant with my son. I missed her so much. I have a nearly 1 year old long coat chihuahua. He is so charming, loving, devoted, smart, too smart for his own good. Too long message but I come back here so I can enjoy again. Best wishes to you and your family.😊
Thank you for your lovely message. It means such a lot to me that you enjoy my videos. I'm so sorry for your loss, at such a hard time too. That must have been awful. Give your chihuahua a cuddle from me, they really are the most wonderful, loyal and clever little dogs :) and also mischevious :D
I was so excited to see you posted a video and was going to save it for later today but I couldn’t wait to see what you have been up to. It quickly turned to tears on my face when you spoke of the comments last time about your sons hair. I just cannot believe I live in such a cruel world. I’m shocked someone would say such a thing. So now that I’m past that point I’m going to watch the rest of the video later and let this feeling pass
Thank you for posting and appreciation for everyone supporting each other in these challenging times. Wishing a wonderful holiday season to you and your lovely family. Be safe ❤️
I did a crochet blanket as a CAL and every row was a different colour. The border was made to enclose all the ends. I haven't done the border yet because I took a break to make small blankets for my grandgirls. You might want to think about an enclosed border instead of sewing all those ends in…
What a treat to see you again Dani! Rest assured, and this comes from a 67-year-old Mama and Nana, that you are showing up where you need to right now, even if it means we don’t see you quite as often. Love to see you when you can manage it, and happy you’re still making time to create.❤️Nancy in Holland, MI
Hi! I started watching your channel during vlogmas last year and started watching your previous videos. I'm US based and had never heard of Brambly Hedge. I found the complete collection on Amazon, and it looked exactly like the type of books I've been looking for FOR YEARS to add to our books. My younger son turns 9 on Sunday, and I debated whether it would be too young for him. It came yesterday, and he ADORES it! I can see why you love it so much, and this is truly a treasure for any household which wants innocent literature. I know your son is just a bit younger, but if you have any other recommendations as time goes on I'd love to hear about them, even to share with others. Thank you for all that you do. I hope you and your family had a lovely Christmas!
I let out a little giggle when I saw you had spent an hour of your time with us, thank so much!! Oh my goodness, what a joy to see you and little Bobbins. What a sweetheart he is and we can tell how much you care for him. As for my Christmas Eve cast on, I still have not decided but I sure like your Iced Sugar Cookie socks to use up some scraps, but the Rose Pedal Sandwich socks are calling me too. I’ll let you know what I’ve also gone through my stash and decide. Merry Christmas Dani and family!!
You are a delight and I love your patterns! I have already checked them out and will definitely have to get some. My Christmas Eve cast on was socks. The first that I have made in a very long time. I’m enjoying it so much. Your blanket is beautiful!!!
Oh Dani it’s so nice to sit & enjoy a cup of tea with you. I have thought about you and your adorable son often. I am stitching a series I am calling “Home” and learning contentment whatever the circumstance. I’m thankful for our craft and the inspiration from other creators. Wishing you and your family all best during the holidays. I hope we see you more often, you’re such a peaceful soul, always look forward to your updates.
How wonderful to “see” you again (and Bobbins of course!) Your podcasts are such a welcome calm in this crazy world 😍 So glad you’re reinspired to craft. ♥️♥️
What a delightful treat to sit and knit while listening to you talk of your knitting and see your beautiful projects. I’m so glad that you had time and energy to share with us, it really feels like being given a gift. Also, who is the designer of the bear? I couldn’t quite catch that part. Thank you!
Lovely podcast and knits! I got back into making hexagon patchwork during the last couple of years as that too is very meditative and can be picked up and put down xxx
I was so happy to see you pop up, I’ve missed you. So glad to hear all is well with you and your family. Sorry you’ve had comments - ignore them and more on. You’re radiant with motherhood, so you are right to enjoy every second - my son is 18 in a few weeks so believe me when I say they grow up so so quickly. I’ve enjoyed seeing your lovely projects and every now and then a little glimpse of embroidery appears which made me think of your mum, so I hope she is well too. Have a lovely Christmas and thank you for popping on! 🎄
So exciting to see you and Bobbins! Can’t wait to see which yarn you’ll choose for your Christmas Eve cast on. Merry Christmas to you and your little family and to your lovely Mom!
Dani, it has been so wonderful to see you again. You are my stress free time. Being a mom is more than a full time job and I admire your ability to do this podcast. Yes I have done several years of the Christmas Eve cast on. This year I think I am going to do the Rose Petal Sandwich socks. Every sock I have knit since doing your first Pattern, I have used your heal turn and toe as my go to for socks. They fit my foot perfect and I just replace your recipe in other patterns.
Oh it’s lovely to see you and Bobbin again! I think it’s fabulous that you spend your time with your son. The time that children are so young is so very brief that it warms my heart to hear that you are taking advantage of it and enjoying this very special time. My very best holiday wishes for you and your family. I’ll be joining you in spirit for the annual Christmas Eve cast on. Salam wa sa’aadah
I'm so sorry to hear of your pup's illness. Mine has the same thing... heart murmur and enlarged heart. He's on two heart pills and a dieuretic to remove the extra fluid from his chest. I know that Bobbin knows that you love him and care so much for his health and wellbeing.
I was so pleased to see you had posted a video ..it is lovely to see you and Little Bobbins of.course....our dog is 12 too and it is hard to see them getting older isn't it..they give us so much love and the thought of something happening to that is hard, but we enjoy the cuddles every day..so.much joy to see today as always Dani, your patterns are beautiful..sorry you had some comments from.previous podcsstse..some people are horrible and should be ignored....merry Xmas to you and yours ..love Sue xxx
Praying that Bobbin is all okay for years to come. 🙏🏻 The Tiny Tree pattern is my favorite sock pattern (I don’t do the trees, but it’s such a great fit for me!) Thanks, Dani❤️
Nice to see you today! Glad you are doing well and continuing to knit and crochet. Hope your mom is well too. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. Tail wags to little Bobbin.
Your vlogs are so calming for me and I so look forward to them, I really do. It hurts my heart that someone would be so weird about hair. He has gorgeous hair and he's a sweet little child and they can keep their negative comments in their negative little minds. I'm so glad you did a vlog. Thank you so much for your videos.
Love seeing your video! You have such beautiful patterns! Sorry to hear about Bobbin hope he does good!! Merry Christmas to you and your family!! Now to look up your patterns!!
So lovely to see your podcast come up Dani.... it was just lovely to catch up with what is on your needles. I'm sorry to hear your wee dog has a heart problem ....they are family and so precious. I'm now off to have look at your sock patterns as the ones you showed are beautiful and I need some new designs. All my socks go to my grand daughter and her mama in the Netherlands as they adore hand knitted socks from granny in Scotland 😄 I wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas and a happy and blessed New year..... and your podcasts keep coming.....with your mum joining you too. 😁💕
You have made a lot of gorgeous patterns Dani ☺️ I will also this year cast your newest sock pattern on tonight. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Your knitting is lovely. I have been knitting since I was a child, but I just stress when knitting, crochet, is more calming for me. I love the calming of making a Granny Square blankets, the colors you chose are beautiful. My colors have been very bright as well, not like me either. I hope to see the latest one you're making, the muted one, it will be wonderful. Merry Christmas from Texas, USA! 🌼🌿
Crochet is so calming isn't it. Those blankets were just what I needed. I will definitely share my progress on the muted one. That's funny we have both been using different colours from our usual. Needing to make our own bright spots at the moment perhaps 🥰 Merry Christmas 🎄
Was so nice to see again and was fun seeing you plan your Christmas Eve cast on. Sending best wishes to you and your family for a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year.
It’s so nice to see you again and hear your soft, peaceful voice. I understand your thoughts for Bobbins health. Our 17 year old cat is now diabetic and is in renal failure which require insulin shots and injecting her with fluids every other day. But we do whatever it takes, right? Also, I had 3 sons and believe me you will find the time and love for more than one child! Happy and healthy Holidays to you and your family.
So nice to hear from u. Always love your videos. And those socks are sooo cute looking forward. To the Christmas Eve cast on. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Hope hour mum is well
So wonderful to see and hear you again. Thanks for the gift of you❤️

Thank you so much 🥰 he is such a busy little bee and so full of his own ideas now, it is a joy to try and keep up with him ❤

I will try and catch Teddy Bear next time. He is such a funny boy. Merlin is mums cat. He is Teddy's brother and such a character ❤
Oh, Dani. I am so sorry that you got such comments about your son. You will not please everyone, it is really up to you always. It is so nice to see you. It will be my 3rd year of Christmas Eve cast ons. I can’t wait. Your sock pattern this year is gorgeous. ❤️ We will always be here when you podcast! 😊
I'm so pleased you are joining in again 🥰 thank you so much 🥰
Hi Dani, it's so lovely to see you again.
It's really funny that you mentioned the country house retreat, with Curious handmade Helen, as that is how I initially found you. I had just found knitting podcasts and Mina went to the retreat, I think that it was 2015 or 16 not totally sure. But you Mina and Paula did a little chat on the podcast. I started to follow you and Paula then. I love your knits, the socks look really cute. I hadn't seen selfstriping yarn from Down Sheepy Lane before. I will need to pop notifications on for her Instagram. Sending you and your family lots of love and hugs and Merry Christmas wishes. 🎄🎁😁🎉💕
God bless you Bobbin! Love you and your work!❤️🙏🏻❤️
So good to see you back on. You are such a gentle spirit. Beautiful projects!
What a calming and inspiring podcast Dani.I made the hydrangea blanket for my daughter when she was pregnant and it adorns the nursing chair where my toddler grandson gets all the snuggles and bedtime stories,I now like to think it now has all that love within it.Those blankets are dens,tents,picnic rugs and anything else one can imagine.Plus you can chuck them in the washing machine!!!
So very glad to see you again! (And sweet Bobbin). Missed you and your knitting. ❤️
I had to write you a comment…I went and checked your channel the other day because I just thought I wonder if she will put out a new video…and then a few days later you did! How nice. I loved catching up with you. Merry Christmas,
Shannon
I have insomnia so was happy to see you posted. You do what you think is right for your son, mine had long ringlets when he was little until he decided he wanted to look more like a boy (as if he didn't look like one already). People are always ready to tell you what you're doing wrong with everything in your life so I try to do the opposite and tell people what they do right. Don't worry about the podcast, it was lovely and calming and sort of like having a chat with a friend. Stay healthy and just love that boy, he'll be just fine.
What a pleasant surprise to see you!
so nice to spend some time with you Dani. Enjoyed your podcast so much. Please share with us whenever you have the time and energy to podcast - no matter how long it's been. Wishing you and those you love a very Merry Holiday and New Year.
Jana of the podcast Finish knitting stories says we actually have 2 hobbies: knitting is one hobby and buying yarn is another hobby! Glad you are happy and doing well, so nice to see your podcast today!
What a treat! So lovely to catch up. Gorgeous makes and patterns, and the sweetest bear face... Look forward to seeing the hot choc socks - my Christmas Eve cast on this year was a very cosy cowl. Happy New Year!
Loved spending some gentle time with your special self. I leaned into blankets for comfort while in stay at home orders. Don’t have to schlep them anywhere. I now have a dolly cart for yarn management and it makes me happy.
Merry Christmas! It is such a treat to see you again! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your lovely family🎄 Thank you so much for sharing all your beautiful knitting projects.
What an absolute delight it was to have this visit with you, Dani. I have so missed your videos but I'm also always happy to go back and rewatch old ones. Such a peaceful presence.
Nice to see you again 🎄🎄🎄🎄
Lovely to see you again! Beautiful blankets - your mindless knitting, where mine is dish cloths! Keep up the good work, whatever and whenever suits you. It's not rambling, it's lovely friendly chat. Happy New Year xxx
Oh Dani. My heart broke for you a little when I heard you got grief about your gorgeous boy with his long hair. I have three boys who choose to have long hair and yes the swooshing plays a big part. It’s gorgeous!!! Lots of love to you all.
What a gift. Thank you for taking the time Dani. Such a pleasure to see you❤️
Thank you so much for watching 🥰
What a lovely treat to find your podcast today. Your beautiful quiet demeanor is just what I needed today. Happy 2022 to you and your family ❤️🧶❤️
Lovely to see you again, I really enjoyed catching up with you & your makes x
How lovely to see a podcast from you! I had to watch immediately! You are not forgotten. 🥰🥰🥰
Really loved the podcast Dannie you are such an inspiration .
Such a beautiful video lovely of you to check in. Remember this is just a season of life soon enough you will you will find more balance in your life.
Lovely to have you back again...your son's hair is beautiful....you never have to justify why.👍🏾
Wow, eight years of Christmas Eve cast ons! What a treat that you were able to share your new pattern and have a lovely catch up. Enjoy, enjoy,enjoy all your precious moments with your little boy, they become a cherished memory much to quickly.
Am especially excited for this year’s cast on, since I’ve wanted to try Norah George yarns, this was the perfect reason to get a set and your pattern all in one.
Wishing you and your family’s very happy holiday season.
Oh lovely! I do hope you enjoy it! I can't believe how quickly it goes Barbara, growing up so fast but just continues to constantly delight us. He is such an angel! 🥰
So lovely to see you and Little Bobbin. Such a beautiful aesthetic from a lovely kind soul. 💜
Oh how nice to see you once again. I recently just started knitting again the past few months exactly and there you are ! Awww sweet doggie.
So nice to see u again! Merry Christmas 🎄
I love everything about your channel. I have headboard just like yours except mine is a rich brown. 4 little old ladies made mine. Those women were so connected they finish sentence for one another. I wish I could bring them home with me. I envisioned many cakes cookies and tea. ***There is only one you what you bring to a podcast is a treasure only you can share. But I understand. My son is 47 , he had the most beautiful blonde hair, it was long. I breastfed both my babies. My precious Mother died while I was pregnant with my son. I missed her so much. I have a nearly 1 year old long coat chihuahua. He is so charming, loving, devoted, smart, too smart for his own good. Too long message but I come back here so I can enjoy again. Best wishes to you and your family.😊
Thank you for your lovely message. It means such a lot to me that you enjoy my videos. I'm so sorry for your loss, at such a hard time too. That must have been awful.
Give your chihuahua a cuddle from me, they really are the most wonderful, loyal and clever little dogs :) and also mischevious :D
What a lovely treat to see you for Christmas xxxx
Thank you so much 🥰
What a lovely treat to see your podcast come up. Your socks are so sweet. A Merry Christmas to you and your family Dani. Hugs for Bobbins.
Thank you so much. Merry Christmas to you too 🥰
I was so excited to see you posted a video and was going to save it for later today but I couldn’t wait to see what you have been up to. It quickly turned to tears on my face when you spoke of the comments last time about your sons hair. I just cannot believe I live in such a cruel world. I’m shocked someone would say such a thing. So now that I’m past that point I’m going to watch the rest of the video later and let this feeling pass
Pure admiration for what you accomplish, such lovely sounds in the background too
Thank you for posting and appreciation for everyone supporting each other in these challenging times. Wishing a wonderful holiday season to you and your lovely family. Be safe ❤️
I have so missed you!!! Happy Christmas🎄!!
I did a crochet blanket as a CAL and every row was a different colour. The border was made to enclose all the ends. I haven't done the border yet because I took a break to make small blankets for my grandgirls. You might want to think about an enclosed border instead of sewing all those ends in…
What a treat to see you again Dani! Rest assured, and this comes from a 67-year-old Mama and Nana, that you are showing up where you need to right now, even if it means we don’t see you quite as often. Love to see you when you can manage it, and happy you’re still making time to create.❤️Nancy in Holland, MI
So nice of you to pop on. I got your sock patterns and can’t wait to knit them. Happy holidays to you and your family.
Oh thank you so much! I do hope you enjoy them 🥰 happy holidays to you too 🥰
Hi! I started watching your channel during vlogmas last year and started watching your previous videos. I'm US based and had never heard of Brambly Hedge. I found the complete collection on Amazon, and it looked exactly like the type of books I've been looking for FOR YEARS to add to our books. My younger son turns 9 on Sunday, and I debated whether it would be too young for him. It came yesterday, and he ADORES it! I can see why you love it so much, and this is truly a treasure for any household which wants innocent literature. I know your son is just a bit younger, but if you have any other recommendations as time goes on I'd love to hear about them, even to share with others. Thank you for all that you do. I hope you and your family had a lovely Christmas!
I let out a little giggle when I saw you had spent an hour of your time with us, thank so much!! Oh my goodness, what a joy to see you and little Bobbins. What a sweetheart he is and we can tell how much you care for him.
As for my Christmas Eve cast on, I still have not decided but I sure like your Iced Sugar Cookie socks to use up some scraps, but the Rose Pedal Sandwich socks are calling me too. I’ll let you know what I’ve also gone through my stash and decide.
Merry Christmas Dani and family!!
Lovely to see little bobbin and Thankyou for a lovely podcast
You are a delight and I love your patterns! I have already checked them out and will definitely have to get some. My Christmas Eve cast on was socks. The first that I have made in a very long time. I’m enjoying it so much. Your blanket is beautiful!!!
Oh Dani it’s so nice to sit & enjoy a cup of tea with you. I have thought about you and your adorable son often. I am stitching a series I am calling “Home” and learning contentment whatever the circumstance. I’m thankful for our craft and the inspiration from other creators. Wishing you and your family all best during the holidays. I hope we see you more often, you’re such a peaceful soul, always look forward to your updates.
That sounds like a wonderful series to be stitching and such an important reminder 🥰 thank you so much for your very kind words ❤
How wonderful to “see” you again (and Bobbins of course!) Your podcasts are such a welcome calm in this crazy world 😍 So glad you’re reinspired to craft. ♥️♥️
What a delightful treat to sit and knit while listening to you talk of your knitting and see your beautiful projects. I’m so glad that you had time and energy to share with us, it really feels like being given a gift.
Also, who is the designer of the bear? I couldn’t quite catch that part. Thank you!
Lovely podcast and knits! I got back into making hexagon patchwork during the last couple of years as that too is very meditative and can be picked up and put down xxx
I was so happy to see you pop up, I’ve missed you. So glad to hear all is well with you and your family. Sorry you’ve had comments - ignore them and more on. You’re radiant with motherhood, so you are right to enjoy every second - my son is 18 in a few weeks so believe me when I say they grow up so so quickly. I’ve enjoyed seeing your lovely projects and every now and then a little glimpse of embroidery appears which made me think of your mum, so I hope she is well too. Have a lovely Christmas and thank you for popping on! 🎄
You are unforgettable!
Merry Christmas Dani
Oh you're so kind! Thank you so much. Merry Christmas 🥰
So exciting to see you and Bobbins! Can’t wait to see which yarn you’ll choose for your Christmas Eve cast on. Merry Christmas to you and your little family and to your lovely Mom!
OMGoodness so good to see you Danny!! I love all the socks and so happy that you and your family are all doing well! Smooches for Bobbin xx
Dani, it has been so wonderful to see you again. You are my stress free time. Being a mom is more than a full time job and I admire your ability to do this podcast. Yes I have done several years of the Christmas Eve cast on. This year I think I am going to do the Rose Petal Sandwich socks. Every sock I have knit since doing your first Pattern, I have used your heal turn and toe as my go to for socks. They fit my foot perfect and I just replace your recipe in other patterns.
Oh it’s lovely to see you and Bobbin again! I think it’s fabulous that you spend your time with your son. The time that children are so young is so very brief that it warms my heart to hear that you are taking advantage of it and enjoying this very special time. My very best holiday wishes for you and your family. I’ll be joining you in spirit for the annual Christmas Eve cast on. Salam wa sa’aadah
Lovely to see you Dani! I enjoyed seeing all of your lovely designs up close to see all of the beautiful details 🥰
Thank you so much for watching 😊
So good to see you and all you have been up to!! Thank you for taking the time to chat.
I'm so sorry to hear of your pup's illness. Mine has the same thing... heart murmur and enlarged heart. He's on two heart pills and a dieuretic to remove the extra fluid from his chest. I know that Bobbin knows that you love him and care so much for his health and wellbeing.
I was so pleased to see you had posted a video ..it is lovely to see you and Little Bobbins of.course....our dog is 12 too and it is hard to see them getting older isn't it..they give us so much love and the thought of something happening to that is hard, but we enjoy the cuddles every day..so.much joy to see today as always Dani, your patterns are beautiful..sorry you had some comments from.previous podcsstse..some people are horrible and should be ignored....merry Xmas to you and yours ..love Sue xxx
Lovely to see you back on TH-cam and find out about all your knitting projects. I hope you have a lovely Christmas with your family x
Thank you so much! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas too 🎄
Praying that Bobbin is all okay for years to come. 🙏🏻 The Tiny Tree pattern is my favorite sock pattern (I don’t do the trees, but it’s such a great fit for me!) Thanks, Dani❤️
Nice to see you today! Glad you are doing well and continuing to knit and crochet. Hope your mom is well too. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. Tail wags to little Bobbin.
Thank you so much! Mum is really well thank you. Merry Christmas to you too 🥰
Your vlogs are so calming for me and I so look forward to them, I really do. It hurts my heart that someone would be so weird about hair. He has gorgeous hair and he's a sweet little child and they can keep their negative comments in their negative little minds. I'm so glad you did a vlog. Thank you so much for your videos.
Thank you so much 🥰 I know! I'm firmly from the if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing school of thought so I find it quite bizarre.
@@littlebobbinsknits3052 I just purchased the Primrose Pudding sock pattern. It's so cute! Thank you
Merry Christmas🎄! What a lovely gift to have a new -and inspiring video! Than you for taking the time🤗🧶💕
So happy to see your work! Happy Christmas to you and the family.
Love seeing your video! You have such beautiful patterns! Sorry to hear about Bobbin hope he does good!! Merry Christmas to you and your family!! Now to look up your patterns!!
So lovely to see your podcast come up Dani.... it was just lovely to catch up with what is on your needles. I'm sorry to hear your wee dog has a heart problem ....they are family and so precious. I'm now off to have look at your sock patterns as the ones you showed are beautiful and I need some new designs. All my socks go to my grand daughter and her mama in the Netherlands as they adore hand knitted socks from granny in Scotland 😄 I wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas and a happy and blessed New year..... and your podcasts keep coming.....with your mum joining you too. 😁💕
You have made a lot of gorgeous patterns Dani ☺️ I will also this year cast your newest sock pattern on tonight. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Your knitting is lovely. I have been knitting since I was a child, but I just stress when knitting, crochet, is more calming for me. I love the calming of making a Granny Square blankets, the colors you chose are beautiful. My colors have been very bright as well, not like me either. I hope to see the latest one you're making, the muted one, it will be wonderful. Merry Christmas from Texas, USA!
🌼🌿
Crochet is so calming isn't it. Those blankets were just what I needed. I will definitely share my progress on the muted one. That's funny we have both been using different colours from our usual. Needing to make our own bright spots at the moment perhaps 🥰 Merry Christmas 🎄
Lovely to see you and bobbin. love the socks..
Wonderful to see you again! Merry Christmas to you and yours and big hug for Bobbin ❤️
Thank you so much. Merry Christmas 🎄
Was so nice to see again and was fun seeing you plan your Christmas Eve cast on. Sending best wishes to you and your family for a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year.
Thank you so much. Merry Christmas to you too 🥰
Lovely to see you! My grandson has long blonde curls and I love them! Hope you’ve had a lovely peaceful Christmas 🎄. Love the knitting projects 🧦
It’s so nice to see you again and hear your soft, peaceful voice. I understand your thoughts for Bobbins health. Our 17 year old cat is now diabetic and is in renal failure which require insulin shots and injecting her with fluids every other day. But we do whatever it takes, right? Also, I had 3 sons and believe me you will find the time and love for more than one child! Happy and healthy Holidays to you and your family.
Thank you for sharing!
Wonderful to see you Dani😍. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
So nice to hear from u. Always love your videos. And those socks are sooo cute looking forward. To the Christmas Eve cast on. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Hope hour mum is well
