🎶🎶Happy Birthday🎶🎶 to Jo and Rachel! Lovely podcast! I think I got the John Shawl kit from Birdstreet It’s in a pile of Christmas presents for my hubby to give me at Christmas. I order nice yarn kits and he gives them to me for Christmas. Saves him shopping and he knows I’ll love them. I also ordered from botanical yarn the Christmas Eve cast on with your pattern. Hope it gets to the States in time. Have a very joyous Christmas and a fabulous New Year!🎄🎄💗💗🧶🧶 Oh yes to a Zoom!
Belated birthday wishes to you both, sorry I'm late catching the lovely podcast, lots going on. Enjoyed every minute, always fun and interesting. I'm knitting a Simon shawl right now, I had got into section 3 when I went wrong so I ripped it all out yesterday afternoon and eagerly cast it straight back on, I'm on section 2 now and really loving it. Already chosing colours for a second, third and fourth Simon! 😂 What a gorgeous pattern. Also, Merry Christmas to you both too x
Happy birthday lovelies 🎉 I went to the Christmas wool show on the outskirts of Birmingham last week. Had a fabulous time. Ducky darlings had a sample of the Simon shawl so I purchased some of their yarn and downloaded your pattern. Started it a couple of days ago. Really enjoying making it. 😊
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉🎉🎂🎂🎈🎈🎈 Obviously December is the best month! We have 4 birthdays this month December 3, 10, and 2 birthdays on the 18th I had my oldest son on my birthday. I told him he can never say he forgot my birthday. Hope you had a lovely day together. Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year
Happy Birthday! I started a Simon cowl but gift knitting has really take over. Hoping I can get back at it as I love all of your Simons! Happy Holidays too! 🕊️
Happy birthday ladies, the cake looked lush. I love the Claire shawl, will there be a cowl version please. Can’t wait to see the Rachael ??, love a surprise. Enjoy your Chinese, hope to see you very soon. X🍾🥂🎂🧶
Happy birthday, ladies! Hope you fully enjoyed your day together. Thanks for sharing part of your time with us to record another lovely podcast episode. I vote for a Sunday zoom!
I hope you both had a wonderful Birthday! I do have some Jomo socks on my needles but my knitting speed has slowed right down due to an arm injury. I finished the heel turns on both socks last night though so I’ll try and get some photos done later today 😊
Happy, happy birthday lovely ladies. I have been chatting with Ruth because our sons were born on December 18. And the day just got more special - times two!
Happy Birthday to both you girls. Really enjoyed the podcast. Definitely would love a zoom. Knitting with some Malabrigo at the moment. Have used it before and it really is lovely yarn. Enjoy the rest of your time together and see you on the next podcast. Take care.x p,s,love your flower ring Jo.❤
Hope you had a lovely birthday together. Love the Claire shawl Jo and am also asking will there be a cowl version? Have a great Christmas and look forward to seeing you back in the north in 2025
Hi, happy birthday ladies xxx. Loved the podcast, always great to see what you both have been making and buying. I’ve a question for Rachael….. I’ve been asked to knit a hat for a lady who is having chemo treatment, and I remember you mentioned your favourite hat to wear at that time of your treatment, I wonder what yarn it was made from, as would like to make a nice beanie hat for her. Thanks for your help xx
I would use Malabrigo sock. It’s 100% merino and doesn’t feel woolly at all. Very soft for the head. The sock head hat is a good pattern 🥰 hope your friend’s chemo goes ok xx
Happy Birthday to you both! PS Rachel, I had the same sock set as you (from the Yarn Badger) and I got past the heel on both socks and then frogged them! I just didn't like the way they were knitting up and the colours were just not for me either. I offered the yarn to my elderly neighbour, who happily accepted it!
Thanks for mentioning your disappointment with the sock advent. I was confused and disappointment about the lack of stripes. Good to know it wasn’t my knitting.
@Jenrberry140 I was extremely disappointed with my first purchased of the self striping Christmas skein from The Yarn Badger. For many years I have seen podcasters knitting up their one a day stripes and have always regretted not buying one because the looked so lovely. So when I ordered my first 24 countdown advent this year i was so very disappointed! Not only are the colours not what i usually go for, but they did not reflect the mood boards created for the design,and I struggled to see any stripes! I knit down to the foot of each sock before frogging them. I knew I would never want to wear them and I wasn't enjoying knitting on them. It was a relief to hand the unwanted skeins to my neighbour! I went on to purchased a self striping Christmas yarn set from Fab Funky Fibres, here in the uk. The colourway is 'A Cosy Christmas' and I love it!
Yes, please host another zoom! And happy birthday to you both!!
Happy Birthday Ladies 🎂🎈🎈
