    There’s nothing I like more than bundling up in a cozy sweater, sitting on a large driftwood log on the beach, with a nice warm drink in my travel mug and enjoying the beauty of where I live, while I knit

    What I love about the fall is watching cloud formations because the skies are the most dramatic and perfect to paint in landscapes.

    What I like about the fall.....it is a reprieve for me from the sweltering heat of summer on the one side , and then from the freezing cold of winter on the other. I love to take walks with my dogs in the coolness of fall, to look at the golds, oranges and browns of the trees and flora

    Hello from Rhode Island! I LOVE the fall- the cozy clothes, boots, soups, crock pot meals, warm cider, the color of the sky in fall, the leaves changing, and a hike in the woods. Hiking in the woods in fall is a tradition in my family. We do enjoy seeing the leaves, hearing them under foot & the scents in the woods this time of year. Thanks for your podcasts.

    I'm in London Ontario Canada. My favourite thing about the Fall is getting to wear my hand knit socks again! Today will be a high of 64F and rainy. It's gone down the mid 40s at night. I am cozied up with my coffee, woolly socks, and my knitting. 💗💗💗

    I live in Nova Scotia Canada in a very small fishing village. I love everything about fall... The smell of the earth getting ready to sleep for the winter, the colours, cooler temps, larger tides, baking, preserving, no pesky bugs when outside and knitting of course 😉 Love your podcast!

    Hi there, I’m from the West Midlands in the U.K. I love Autumn, the cosy evenings, a candle lit with my knitting by my side. Weekends I enjoy visiting National Trust properties with my family where we’ll walk through the woods, kicking, throwing and collecting the fallen autumn leaves. My young grandchildren love this and a fun way to get them playing outdoors in the fresh air.

    Hi from Austria. As a child I used to collect horse chestnuts with my mum on our autumn walks and make little animals. Now my daughter is 1,5 and this autumn we already made a little chestnut caterpillar for her to drag around the house :)

  • @suemccord9723
    @suemccord9723 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am in Ontario, Canada, and love the color of the Autumn leaves, pumkins, gourds and enjoying fresh vegetables from the fall harvest. There seems to be such a cozy comfort in making soups & stews when the weather changes to cooler temperatures and nightfall comes early. Of course sitting by a fire and knitting makes all that even better.

  • @gabyknits7960

    I love fall, it's my favourite time of the year. I can break out my cozy fall sweaters and cardigans again, enjoy pumpkin spice lattes and pumpkin spice teas, and I love seeing the leaves change colour. Going on a nice peaceful walk on a trail amongst the trees with hot chocolate, and cozy in a sweater, is a fall activity I would recommend

  • @gayleburkett6516

    I live in Northern Pennsylvania on a sheep and cattle farm. Autumn is by far my favorite season- the changing leaves and crisp air! Sitting on the porch with my knitting, warm apple cider, cozy sweatshirt and a fire is a perfect evening for me. I am new to your podcast and plan to go back and binge watch previous episodes....I just love it!

  • @VAHelix
    @VAHelix 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The beauty of knitting or hand crafting garments is you can alter them in many ways. If it is too big for a sweater, steek the front and turn it into a cardigan, place darts or side seams, or pass it along. There are so many options. I love the shawl colors and yarn you talked about.! I am in Texas and my favorite thing about fall is being able to open the windows and let fresh air into my home.

  • @margaretrodee3519
    @margaretrodee3519 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I live in Utah. Right now the canyons and mountains are all ablaze with color! Gold, red and orange. It’s so beautiful! It may seem boring but it’s soooooo lovely! We drive the “loop”. It goes from one canyon on my side of the mountain and goes up and over to the other side. It is breathtaking and always spectacular!!! For sure that’s my favorite thing to do. Fall is too short! I love it so much!!!!

  • @MoO-uu6pn

    Greetings from a fellow Pennsylvanian! My favorite season is summer, but there are many enjoyable things about fall too - apple crisp, wearing boots and sweaters with my favorite down vest, long walks enjoying the changing colors, the crisp morning air, sleeping with the windows open, flannel sheets, homemade soups and applesauce, backyard campfires, and all things pumpkin!

  • @karenanderson9463

    I live in east Texas and my favorite things about fall are the leaves changing and pumpkin! Pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie, pumpkin rolls, pumpkin cookies.. pretty much anything pumpkin lol. And it never seems to get cold enough in the fall but I also love when the weather is cool enough to start a fire. Sitting inside by the fire or outside by a bonfire with a hot cup of something and the current WIP is always great. ☺️🎃🍁🍂☕️🔥🧶

    I enjoyed your podcast as always. I live in Southern California. I have fond memories of taking my Grandmother on drives to see the fall colors. As a child I loved raking leaves into a big pile only to jump into them making a huge mess. I taught my son to do the same. Great memories, thank you for reminding me.

  • @IslandLady76
    @IslandLady76 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love hearing about what you make for your daughter because I have the same problem. I'm in MO and it is in the 40's and the leaves are changing and falling. My favorite memory of fall is when our children were little and we'd rake leaves and they and the dog would jump into the piles. I remember doing that as a kid too. It made raking the leaves more fun.

  • @lisacotter6227
    @lisacotter6227 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the cooler weather and the beautiful colors of the trees. A couple of years ago we took my daughter and her friend to a very clever corn maze. It was set up with a map and there were stations within the maze to get ur map validated. It was like an adventure and a race between my husband and I and my daughter and her friend. Of course, the younger minds prevailed!

    I'm in Manhattan. We are car-less and walk everywhere. The city is so dynamic that shop windows are always changing. This time of year, they're gearing up for Halloween and orange and black and cats and witches and candy are everywhere. It's especially fun to see the city at night when shops are illuminated from within. I'm a first-time viewer of your podcast. Nice work!

    Hi. I'm in The Pacific NW of Oregon. Autumn is my favorite season! Crisp air, sunny days, leaves turning colors. A hint of smoke in the air from a warm fire. The fields are plowed, worked down and planted for next years crop. It just makes me happy.

    Hi Amber, I am from the south of Germany and love your podcast! I am a fall girl, born in October and love the season although the windy grey rainy weather will also wear me out after 3 weeks... I love to light a fire, drink tea, knit of course and go for long walks if I have the time. Coming home a bit frozen and warm up inside makes me feel really alive.

    Hello from Northwest Arkansas. Both of my daughters were in marching band in high school and my older daughter went on to participate in marching band in college. For me, fall means high school football with marching bands and marching band contests. I love watching these kids who have spent so much time and effort practicing their music and their drills and performing amazing halftime shows.
    I really enjoy your podcast and look forward to each episode!

    What a lovely giveaway. I live in Arkansas. It’s supposed to be fall, but it’s 93!😖 When fall gets here, my favorite things are bread baking, hiking, and planting bulbs for the spring. I also struggle with fall because I mourn the long days, but I’m also trying to focus on the beauty of the season.

    Toronto! My family and I used to go hiking in the fall and enjoy the beautiful colours. Now that my grandparents cannot go, my favourite fall thing to do is to plan ahead for Christmas gift knitting, using the crispness of the air and the wonderful feeling of anticipation as inspiring factors. And of course the colours from nature!

    I'm in southern Maine. I really enjoy fall because it gets cooler and the colors of the leaves begin to change. What I really enjoy is going to all of the fairs. Obviously, I like to look in the craft barns and fiber sheds but also love looking at all of the animals. I'm so glad that you had a wonderful time up in Bar Harbor. It is a beautiful place to visit.

  • @marthakimball4507

    Hello Amber, delicious handspun ! Totally agree with you; handspun feels so real to me; rustic and real. You have a podcast viewer in the Netherlands. Fall has been very wet so far over here. But I love it; the colors, the crisp air, good light, great clouds, the smells; I always welcome fall. The preparation for winter; freezing, canning, pickeling, drying fruit en vegetables. I must have been a squirrel or a hamster in previous life.

    I’m from Maine. The town you were mentioning is Belfast. I go there often. My favorite fall activity is walking through the woods with my granddaughter, Olivia, and gathering leaves. We take them home and press them between 2 pieces of waxed paper with some shaved crayons. It is something my family has done since I was a child. We learn all the different trees in our area through identifying the leaves. Beautiful weather and the color is just coming in. Love your podcast. Thanks for sharing

And thank you for sharing about my shop - I had such a wonderful response from many viewers :) l do actually love fall, maybe because my husband and I are both fall babies, but also because I love to get cozy with a cup of freshly roasted coffee, wearing a warm sweater, and working on a lovely wooly project - that is what fall feels like to me.

Cozy, cool, nights by the fire! Starting to wear my handknits again! Cozy sweatshirts and boots! The sky is such a pretty shade of blue this time of year! We also love hiking more in the fall and collecting leaves and my kids make various crafts with them! I could go on and on! 😊 I truly love it that much!!

    I am from Malaysia but stay with my children in US for many months a year. My last trip to the US, I was asked by the immigration to not stay too long and not come to the US too many times. I told them I have been going to the US much more recently to help my single mom daughter with 2 kids. I have a valid visa and never overstay. How phobic! This present administration has gone crazy!
    I love nature visits during fall to see the beautiful sceneries.

    Oh my, my favourite things about fall. Well, first of all I live in Southern Ontario so we are well into fall. The leaves are turning colour so it’s a special time to go more North and check that out. We now have a trailer so hopefully we can get to head up there one of these weekends to enjoy the colours, the sounds of crunching leaves on a hike or just sitting by the fire on a cool evening. Another thing is Thanksgiving which is mid October in Canada... time for pumpkin pie, squash soup and turkey dinner with family. And of course Halloween! so many things to love; that’s why it’s my favourite season.

We are planning for our trunk-or-treat on the 27th and I am super excited to be involved. Plus my favorite yarn festival happens at the beginning of November. Not too small and not too big.

    Autumn is my favourite time of year because my husband and I celebrate our wedding anniversary every Thanksgiving! We live in British Columbia , Canada. It’s very beautiful this time of year. There are lots of fall colours in the mountains and it’s the perfect time to see the trees fall splendour if your driving up country to our interior or going over to Vancouver Island. Also the surrounding lakes and ocean is very cold, so it becomes more clear and can reflect the surrounding countryside.

    Hi, Amber! I'm in Oregon and we have the most beautiful fall season. There are so many great things about fall to me, but one fun thing we do is drive what is known as the "fruit loop". A big loop that takes you up around the beautiful Mt. Hood through the Hood River Valley where there are many apple orchards. You can stop at different farm stands and buy or pick apples. If it is a clear fall day, it is beautiful!

    I enjoy your podcasts, and was so happy to see a new one tonight. I am also from Western Pa, so I am ready for some cooler weather. I understand that Friday should bring a change to a more autumnal pattern. After I retired from teaching, I discovered the wonder and beauty of fall. The crisp, cool mornings with the vivid blue sky was a delight for me. When I taught, fall was hectic with new routines to be taught, children to get to know, and my own home routine in the mix. So fall meant more of a frustration time, than the serene time I now find it to be. Apples, gorgeous colors, and fall festivals, such as Ohio’s Christmas in the Woods, highlight my fall loves. Oh, and pumpkin everything...and candles and sweaters, and cozy socks, and fires...I could go on and on. Yes, I love fall. What a beautiful sweater your color work is! Your daughter wore it well! And the No Frills sweater does look soft and cozy. I wish yarn that is soft and gorgeous was more affordable. As a newer knitter, it just seems dangerous for me to spend that much on something I might mess up. I really, really want to make the Farm House shawl. I have mentioned that to you previously, but am putting it on my to do list within a few weeks. I adore yours. All of your knits are so lovely. Thank you for sharing your new found store and the discount code. I will be sure to check her store out! Have a great month of October, and I will eagerly await your next podcast. Sending love and admiration....ps...I purchased some yarn and a project bag tonight using your code. You were correct to say it is a great Etsy shop!❤️

    Hi Amber, what a beautiful intro to your podcast! I live in Arkansas where it has been crazy hot (but thankfully cooler weather is on its way by the weekend). Fall is my favorite time of year. I love to spend more time outside and enjoy the changing colors of the leaves, crisp morning air and slower days. Also a lot more baking and just being all cozy in my handknits. Thanks for another wonderful podcast!

    Hi! I'm just north of you I believe. North of Pittsburgh. I love summer! So thinking of winter coming makes me twitch! lol. But I love everything else about fall. The colors, the smells, the tastes, knitting warmer things with fall colors! Thinking of baking apple pies, pumpkin breads, visiting the pumpkin farms, walking in the falls trees etc keeps me happy this time of year!

    My favourite part of Autumn is walking over all of the fallen, crunchy leaves, taking in our beautiful scenery whilst of course wearing my knits!

    Hi Amber, I so enjoyed seeing all your fall-themed WIPs and FOs. I don't know if I've ever commented before, but I've been watching you for awhile now. I know that I've tried to comment before, but then TH-cam hiccuped and deleted my comment and I didn't have the heart (or time) to redo it. I really enjoy what you bring to your projects. It's funny, we're very different in many many ways, but there's still something that draws me to you again and again. It's fun to ponder that.
    I'm in Utah and we're headed into our first hard freeze of the season tonight. So I've been taking advantage of having the morning off work to run around the garden and harvest all the tomatoes, raspberries, pears, marigolds, potatoes, and corn. Harvest time is such a great part of fall that brings natural decorations with it.
    Last weekend was another fall favorite. My husband and I did a beautiful hike and camp out in the mountains near us. The fall colors this time of year are just stunning!

    I’m in Broken Arrow Oklahoma where it’s really hot in the summer! Just being outside in the fall is a treat since in summer we run from air conditioner to air conditioner. Fall is antiquing, sweater knitting, football and bowls of chili! My favorite season.

    I am from mid-Maine and love the Autumn season most of all, going on a nice drive on a sunny day taking photos of the glorious colors.I like to walk on the trails the sound of crunching leaves underfoot and breathing the crisp air...
    Thank you so much for taking the time to do these podcasts..

    Hi Amber. Your sweaters are simply beautiful. Gorgeous knitting. If your No Frills sweater is too big. there will be many of us that would be very happy to purchase it from you.....including me! I love Cosy Posy Yarn. Living in Toronto I love autumn for all the cozy sweaters, warm drinks and comfort good. We love going to pick pumpkins from a farmers’s field. Great podcast as usual❣️

    I live in Tustin, California. The fall isn’t very obvious here as far as the colors are concerned, although the days get darker sooner and the weather cools down at night. My way of celebrating fall is to decorate my house full of all things fall......leaves, pumpkins, straw/hay, cornucopias, pillows, fall quilts and table runners quilted by myself

    Hello
    I live in Norway and we are definitely in the fall. I love to go for walks in the forest watching the nature changing in to all the beautiful fall-colours. The air is clear and crisp.
    I also love cozy knittingevenings inside planning christmaspresents for family and friends.

    I live in Northwest Arkansas. Fall is the time for the Lincoln Applefest Craft Fair and two weeks later War Eagle Arts and Crafts Festival along with 5 or 6 other craft fairs the same weekend. Kettle Corn, homemade chili, and hot apple cider are favorite foods in Fall. Last year my husband and I went to a corn maze and pumpkin patch. Loved seeing your beautiful projects and fiber finds!

    Wonderful episode! Lucky daughter with that beautiful sweater...hope you get one soon! I have mixed feelings about fall, as I love summer so much. However, some things I do appreciate are the beauty of the woods and that earthy smell of leaves making a carpet on the path, not to mention the gorgeous colors. I like to decorate for fall as the colors are ones that I like. I love the autumn candles too! Thanks for sharing!

    Amber, I really enjoyed your podcast. I need to slow down myself and enjoy the process more! Thanks for the reminder. I live in California a half hour south of the state capital near a town called Lodi. It's not very cold here so I don't get to wear knits much, but I so enjoy knitting! I'm thinking about taking my grandkids to Apple Hill in the foothills. We took our kids there when they were young and it's very enjoyable. The apple cider donuts are so delish! Thanks for having a give-away!

    I am in Vancouver British Columbia, Canada. When I was growing up, our favourite fall activity was to clean up the yard before the first snowfall. We would rake the leaves, give the grass some final cuts, turn up the soil...stuff like that. Sadly I don't have a yard that would require this, but I still clean up the leaves from our magnolia tree out back. Just being outside and close to the earth was the best! I am definitely a fall/spring girl!

    It's so nice to look forward to Fall. Our temps here in the Kansas City, Missouri area have been very hot all through September. We're getting a thunderstorm right now and hoping the temps will drop into the 60's tomorrow as they say. I've always wanted to go to Maine, your shots of your vacationthere were so relaxing to watch. I love your podcast, it relaxes me. I'm normally more of a "bright color" knitter, spinner and weaver, but I think your subtle, sophisicated colors are starting to really appeal to me. Edited to add: I LOVE Fall. I enjoy apple picking, putting out some autumn-colored Mums on the front porch, drinking spicy hot tea, making butternut squash soup for my family. And most of all, sitting in front of the fireplace with my knitting and/or a good novel.
