    Congratulations on the baby! I do the mini, wordle, and connections - surprisingly never got into spelling bee! The third book in the fourth wing series just got announced - Onyx Storm coming Jan 2025. So excited, I want to make an Andarna/Tairn inspired pair of socks.

    Wordle is my favorite,I do the free spelling bee and words with friends. Congratulations on being a Mimi, the best experience EVER you will be in a new love that’s different forever.
    My first grandson is 29 and he is still as precious as the first day he came to us.
    All the knits are wonderful! Enjoy you ladies 😊

    Mazel Tov, Lori on becoming a Mimi! I am a Bubbe, but I think I chose the name because I have such fond memories of my own Bubbe.
    Thanks for another wonderful and informative podcast! I teach color theory and must comment on the green/blue debate. Everyone agreed that the pure green was green. When green and blue are mixed together in varying proportions, for example to get colors in the aqua to teal range, it is common for our eyes to "see" the individual hues differently. Blue and green are "analogous" or next to each other on the color wheel and blend well. Often the value (light or dark) plays into this interpretation. Ok, I will take my professor hat off now.... Hope to come to RI soon!

    Congrats, Lori! I got a good laugh on the Fino order. As you were showing it, my thought was “Huh, I should give the shop a call”😂 saved me a phone call!

    Your videos are perfect! Chatty like a knit along w/friends, but so informative too! Congrats on new grandson! Also, I saw your recent NEVER NOT knitting in RI upload, Justine! You really committed to the sweater~keep going on those sleeves! ❤it!

    Lol, good thing I had “just” a smoothie to drink while watching 😮 Oh my goodness Justine after you said how the balls were placed horizontally instead of vertically, that was all I could see for the rest of the podcast behind you!! Makes total sense to have the same colour vertical for knitters to grab, instead of horizontal where all the display gets messed up when on bottom colour is grabbed. Big Congratulations Mimi. I am a Gigi, and too couldn’t see myself being called Grandma……it sounds so “OLD” 😂

    Another great podcast! I would come in a heartbeat if I didn’t live in Canada. You always make me laugh - you 2 are so good together- I love everything you knit and wear! Like most knitters I wish I spent all my time knitting- I’m retired so I do knit a lot but my knit list is growing growing growing!!!

    Just happened upon your podcast. Lori, Mazel Tov on the birth of your grandson. I happen to be the first Grammy in my family. I’m only a fair knitter but love looking at the advanced projects. Love your Striped Triangle Wrap. I would love to knit a shawl and socks! PS your yarn looked blue to me!

    • @TheSkeinScoopPodcast
      @TheSkeinScoopPodcast  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      YES!!!! It’s BLUE! 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you so much for your kind words. If you want to knit a shawl and socks, you should!!! You are 100% capable! ❤️❤️❤️

    Congratulations, Lori! Becoming an “Oma” has been absolutely and truly transformative and unexpectedly joyful. Just amazing!
    Justine, recently went to an island (Caribbean)and had zero issues with ANYTHING related to my yarn, hooks, needles, SCISSORS, etc. ZERO. Both directions! I was not a fiber gal when we visited punta cana tho.
    ENJOY!

    Lori, congratulations on becoming a grandmother! For what it's worth, your Memory sweater looks green to me, too. Happy birthday, Justine, from someone who has to look in the Way Back Machine to see her 40th. LOL As for daily puzzles, I like Wordle, Quordle, Connections, Metazooa and Globle (last two by Trainwreck Labs). Glad to see you both back, you were missed.

    Congratulations Lori! We didn’t really know what to call me when my first grandson was born and some how it became Memaw! Love my babies that aren’t babies anymore, oldest is 18 now!😊

    • @TheSkeinScoopPodcast
      @TheSkeinScoopPodcast  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I think Memaw is such a good name, Teena! I know another grandma with that name. Sometimes the baby decides what the name is and that could never be a bad thing! ❤️❤️❤️

    I love watching you two!! Congratulations, Lori, on being a Mimi. Grandchildren are the BEST! And, Justine, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 40 is a wonderful age!! I hear you about making blankets, but somehow I am making Lego blankets for my 3 grandsons!! Talk about bobbles!! I also agree about Petite Knits patterns. I just finished making the Moby slipover, which I love, but found challenging at times. And, now I'm making Eva cardigans for those same 3 grandsons, and the construction is very different. But, as you said, trust the process. My only real complaint is her videos are in Danish, so even with the subtitles they are hard to follow. But, her designs are lovely. Wish I lived closer for your LYS Day!!

I enjoyed watching so much that over the last couple of weeks, I watched all 48 episodes! I just finished watching the last one, last night and I am grateful to see this new one pop up into my feed! Looking forward to many, many more! Thank you both for all of the time and effort that you take to provide us with all of the shop updates, information and ... entertainment! 🙂 I enjoy laughing, learning and hanging out with you both! 🙂❤ Congratulations, Lori on your new grand!

    Love your podcast, yes a few years ago I was travelling from Toronto, Canada to Punta Cana. I had no issues with needles leaving Canada but on the way back I did. I had an expensive pair of Hiya Hiya sharps that I was knitting socks on. I had those taken away. Now when I travel down there, I pack my knitting in my luggage. Have a good time

    • @TheSkeinScoopPodcast
      @TheSkeinScoopPodcast  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Connections is very often weird to say the least, and ofcourse being a belgian, I don't know a thing about american sports and teams. And the spelling bee, well, that game doesn't know all the words! Anyway, I'm of to stitch my daily portion of cross stitches xxx
