My husband took over the dining room with cd’s, and wine, the lounge with billions of vinyl records & guitars. He has 10% vision so the tech does not work. I retaliated with a yarn room upstairs and garage conversion for sewing painting and craft. There’s always a solution to stuff Jen x
I think I have a new favourite flower. That David Austin rose is amazing and such a pretty pink. I can see the apricot you mentioned in some of the flowers. Gorgeous! The Queen of Sweden
WHEN MUSTARD was one of the main crops in East Anglia, it was cut by hand with scythes, in the same way as corn. The crop could grow up to six feet high and this was very arduous work, requiring extremely sharp tools. When blunt they "would not cut the mustard".
We have been buying loads of DVDs, including boxsets, of favourite old series and binge watching them without any stress, just pure viewing pleasure that's worth every penny! Some of them are used but as good as new.
absolutely loved your video today i do wish i could knit i love the blanket and the rose is so beautiful when i was young i hated pink but now i love it i guess a one grows older your color changes as does your tastes thank you once again for your work i look forward to your next video
Thank you for showing the ball winder hint. I’ve been wrapping mine with tape because I also was afraid to pull on it too hard. You make the most beautiful yarn colors!
I like your thinking and totally agree with going back to DVD’s. Our streaming is driving us nuts….it either goes off or we have to sit through many long commercials which drive me crazy! 😜
Thank you so much for the tip about the ball winder. I'd had the same problem with mine and thought it was broken, but mine also pulls out and locks in with a good tug!
We have a Queen of Sweden among our David Austin roses in the garden. It really is a beautiful rose. Your yarn is lovely and also reminds me of strawberry swirl ice cream.
Ooh! Could we maybe have a series about classical music? Maybe Dan could take us on some adventures to sites significant to classical music and teach us a bit about it? Not sure if that’s feasible or not…
I’m a David Austin rose fanatic!!! We bought our first house this winter and you can bet the first gardening task I did was pre-order a row of roses. I chose Princess Alexandra of Kent and they were surprisingly affordable (for live plants)! They’re very wee this year, but they’ll get quite big and be covered in giant, luxurious, fragrant, blousy roses one day!
Kay and Dan, thank you for your fun and educational videos! I have bee wanting to tell you how much I enjoy your "Crunkle" sock pattern! It's addicting! I've knitted four pairs in a short period of time. My friend also bought your pattern, and we went to a knittig shop in Pacific Grove, CA (next to Monterey) and one of the clerks said she was also going to do your pattern! love it! Thank you ❤
Thank you for another terrific episode. You inspired me to listen to Beethoven's 2nd Symphony, which I hadn't heard in a long time. We are also fans of Holst's "The Planets". If you listened to the whole thing, you would have heard the melody to I Vow to Thee My Country; one of the most beautiful melodies of all time.
Always enjoy your podcasts Kay and Dan...I have 2 " my favourite blanket" on the go right now, thank you Kay! Can NOT wait for the next episode for Dan's Monestary tour 🥰,Sharon.
We have a lot of dvds and since we started streaming, I've considered donating them a few times. However, lately with streaming, i either have found nothing to watch or I stream the movies i have on the dvds. Our system is Google and while watching a podcast yesterday, my lights came on. We do still have the manual switches. I get frustrated when everyday i ask for the forecast and I'm given it in Fahrenheit when it was programmed for Celsius. Somedays, it doesn't listen to me at all. Love the Swedish rose colourway. The speckling is perfect.
I don't know if you check comments on old videos, but I've been catching up and I thought I'd ask if you've tried mixing the jacquard dye with some citric acid to create a more granular powder? I've done this before and the citric acid helps the dye particles bind to the yarn before it spreads too much x
Yay! I'm glad you're going to release the Headrian's cowl as a pattern! It's lovely and Dan's knitting of it looks spectacular! Can't wait! Kay, your reading shawl is beautiful and I know you're going to love using it! Just gorgeous! By the way, Kay, weren't you working on a bed jacket for yourself or did that go by the wayside? Or are you just taking a break from it? Also, I'm glad you figure out the yarn winder and getting it to work for you. I'm one of those people who told you to pull that piece out. I don't believe it was mentioned in the instructions, if there even were any, but they should include something about that. I had my winder for years before I discovered that. It would go out so far and stay okay, but I found out by accident that it could come out even further and was super excited that I could also now wind a larger ball. Yay! I'm so excited for you! I love the pink yarn you dyed up this time. It's beautiful.
About technology… I don’t want a google home because I was watching a vlog and their WiFi lost connection and they couldn’t turn lights on or off or any other electronics.
And let’s talk A-L-E-X-A! Can’t even say that word here. We moved to the country 5+ years ago and with that move came Internet that is spotty at best as well as the accompanying streaming services that came with that Internet. It wasn’t long before we stopped even trying to watch movies through that point. If we want to watch a movie, I just go ahead and buy the DVD and then we have the added benefit of watching it whenever we want again - as many times as we want… just like the children do with the movies they love to watch…did I say REPEATEDLY ? 😂😂😂
Your blanket is beautiful I love the colours…pink is my fave colour too wow! Awesome 🤩🌈✨

So happy that you will be releasing Hadrian's Cowl!
I am so excited to see another great episode!! And I completely agree with you all on the technology subject!!! It’s just to much!!!

Regenwald means rain forest!
My computer stopped when you said the bloody word!!!! 😂
Really looking forward to the Hadrians Wall Cowl! ❤❤

We call her Miss A. If we are not taking A.L.E. X.A.
@@betseyfowler2625 good idea! I’ll remember that when we are talking about ‘her’!
