Love your halibut sweater. I would have to say your knitting is more advanced than you think. I enjoy you & your channel so much. Such a good variety of content. Always my favorite Leanne! 😘
I love the dolls! Never heard of them but they are stunning looking in your photos. There is never enough time to explore all our hobbies. It’s wonderful that you have so many interests!
That is an absolutely gorgeous hat! So glad to have found someone from my home turf (Leduc). Use as many puns as possible - I was chuckling every time!
Your Halibut is gorgeous and the bright green!! Oh!! Just beautiful!! Loved seeing Polka Dot Creek and the festival too. Finally, the doll photography is brilliant!! Arne & Carlos also do a lot of that. You should check them out. And please share your pictures with us!!
I just started to learn brioche knitting. I’m doing a two colour in the round and constantly making errors at the end/beginning of the round. I’ve watched several videos and continue making the same mistakes. I’m determined to get it so my spark of joy remains for now. Would love to steek a sweater as well. Happy new knitting year. Still busting my balls.
@@margot9080After several attempts I think I have figured out that round join issue. The purl round always begins with brioche purl and ends with a slip MC and YO. Keep your purl (CC) in the front of your work. Knit round starts with slip YO and end with brioche knit. So essentially you are doing same actions twice when you end/ start a round with the other colour. I hope helps.
Thank you for such a wonderful podcast! Your colour work beanie is just perfection. You give such wonderful information in such a calming manner. So great to spend an hour with you as you are so inspirational.
Holy Mackerel your Halibut pullover looks amazing, Leanne!🐟 😃 The crown of your Houll Hat looks like a beautiful kaleioscope. Great job on the Airdrie footage. Love the colors of your My Fletching sweater. 💚🤍 I am also having a hard time with my EEW Nano E-spinner. It is in time out right now. I also want to pick up playing the flute again. Those Blythe dolls look so cool!
Hi! Meditation changed my life ! I started meditating 9 years ago and never missed a day …! I love it ! It is amazing! Acceptance … Do persevere if you desire and you will notice the stillness and the beauty around you everywhere !
Fabulous as always, the top of your hat is sublime. 🥰 Yesterday here was 34°C 🙃 So many crafts, so little time! Those dolls need to travel with you! Oh the places they could go! I’m a big meditator, I’ve been doing it for decades, all different types, love it. I am going to knit things that will be staple items in my wardrobe. I’ve had so much fun knitting all the shiny fascinating things, I don’t really need anything in my wardrobe so it’s been fun but this year I want to make some timeless pieces. The other intention is to be present and stay in joy even if that’s emptying the garbage, I want to enjoy the opportunity and skip to the bin. Life’s short, play hard! Thanks for sharing and stay warm.
Oh my… 🥵 just a slight temperature difference between us. Do you use a Meditation app? I look forward to the day when I am focused on wardrobe staples, as you can tell I am currently working on all the shiny things 😆
Making all the shiny things is fun so why not. I don't use a meditation app, just settle down and let go. Most days it's easy and on the other that are not so, I just let it be. There's no wrong or right just how you are in that moment, on the days that are challenging I just let my mind wander if it needs to, relax and breathe and not feel frustrated. If there is no goal only on just being, then it makes things easier. I learnt transcendental meditation years ago - you get a manta and just focus on that so it keeps the mind busy (eventually on nothing and you forget the mantra) and the body can just let go. Enjoy the shiny things!!@@theknittystew
The “Old Port Hat” by Andrea Mowry is a great introduction to brioche. I’ve made two and it’s a very well written pattern. Great job on your projects, the grass green Rauma Finul looks great on you.
Be Brave! Wear the green sweater whenever, not just on a green holiday. It's a great green! Also love the color combo in the hat...niice. I like picking out sweaters that have a different construction from the same old you see all the time. Last year I knit the Moby and this year I've started the Corbis.
Gosh, I have FOUR Jennifer Beale patterns sitting in my Ravelry library! I love her designs but have been intimidated trying to knit them. You’ve thrown down the proverbial gauntlet so looks like I’ll be knitting one as my 2024 challenge. As always, I love visiting Canada by watching your TH-cam channel 😊
Your Halibut sweater is perfect--including the sleeves!! And, I love your intentions. My knitting intention is to use up stash and resist buying more yarn!
Leanne! Your Halibut sweater looks amazing!! you know you will never be cold with it on lol. I loved all your projects as usual. so much inspiration. I'm definitely adding the Fletching in my favorites! Always fun to catch up with you friend! Stay warm out there!! 🥰🧶
Hat is Gorgeous! I laughed when you had it over your face. I've done that before. Also- your borrowed "time is more precious than money" quote is really intentional and thoughtful. Thanks for sharing.
This episode was great. I love your color work hat! I have made one Musselbough hat and it is my favorite for winter! It’s so fun to be on your trips with you.
Hi from Northern BC. How nice to see a Canadian blogger. Part of the reason I follow yarny bloggers from around the world is to hear and see their particular areas of the world. With you being an air stewardess, lovely to see different parts of our own country.
Your lovely sweater of Halibut is terrific and the sleeves look identical and in keeping with the style of the sweater. This is my first time watching, here in Calgary, AB, and am knitting a Rowan pattern, Barlow, with their gorgeous yarn, Alpaca soft DK. It’s lush. Gobsmacked with your Fairisle hat. Wee note about Halibut; when i first saw it I didn’t see the bottom of the fish thought the design was a hallelujah chorus of angels..!
Hello Leanne! I bought the Rowan wool from their website. Funny thing is that I was the first person knitting the pattern and after frogging the cable 3 times I realized 2 errors in the chart. I wrote Rowan and they graciously agreed and also sent a replacement skein of the alpaca. So kind and made a new friend. Now that I’m retired from AHS i have time to watch podcasts and will also start attending wool festivals which seems absolutely fabulous. Bestest, Janet@@theknittystew
I live in Airdrie! The Polka Dot Creek store is right beside my husband’s office and the town and Country Centre where the yarn show was held is right beside my kids schools😊
Just catching up- whew! Love your Halibut.. not biased at all- lol. Those fingerless Mitts look perfect!… and oh my that Green!!! Beautiful on you. Used to be very much into photography (loved my old Minolta!) and regardless of the muse… a very creative outlet- enjoy!! I admire your “low buy” intentions and thrifting has become yet another passion for me too. Great time knitting with you and I look forward to catching up again next time. ❤️.Linda
Hi Linda! Thank you for your message. Soo much in common eh? I am weeks behind in my podcast-watching and look forward to some days off to see what you’ve been up to as well. 💖
Thank you for sharing all of your beautiful makes. It is always a pleasure to listen to you talk about your knitting and the enthusiasm is infectious. ❤ I am a late adapter too and just bought the Musselburgh hat pattern and will be making at least 1 this year. I had a Blythe doll and remember it fondly. It is so funny to hear that some consider the doll to be creepy and I guess it could be if you think about it, but I can't get past how cool it is to be able to change the eye colour. 😉 The Airdrie, Alberta footage was beautiful and made me chilly. 🥶🙂 When I saw the name of the episode I pronounced it "air-dry". Yes, I will hang my head in shame and beg the residents to forgive me. lol Take care and safe travels until the next podcast. 😘
So wonderful to spend some time with you Leanne!! You are a colourwork master!! That hat is truly amazing!! I wonder if you could cut the extra bit of colourwork off and reknit the ribbing? You are making me want a super bright sweater!! Must start thinking!
I love your detailed info and links at the bottom. SO helpful. Beautiful knits. The Halibut is SO gorgeous…maybe I could wear one at least when fishing? Knitting is the perfect hobby for your career! Love the shop tours too…Airdrie may be doable for me!
Wow Leanne! The Halibut is fun but honestly the fair isle beaning stole my heart. I just swoon for that kind of knitting and design,. I enjoyed getting out to the fiber festival and am impressed with your restraint. As always, it's a pleasure to carve out some special time to enjoy my coffee with you. Keep on doing the good wool work and happy trails.
Oh my gosh Sarah 🤍 if I can provide you with even a tiny fraction of the joy and inspiration your channel continually offers me I will be over the moon! Btw, I have ordered a cute little kitchen timer to try and follow your creative process with 10-15 min segments of dedicated focus on different projects.
I love the Musselburgh hat. I made three of them this winter for my grandchildren who moved from the lower mainland in BC to Ottawa. They needed warm hats and these are super warm. My teenage grandkids love them which is super bonus! I also tested “My Fletching”. I love the colours in yours!
Just adore your channel. That sweater on you is fabulous. …. Fantastic. You are so much fun. I come away inspired. Thank you for sharing. As well…. I am enjoying the Cutbank Girls. Yarny goodness.
Sending happy new blessings to all. Oh my word I can't believe it, I'm seeing my very favorite doll from my childhood, Blythe!!! I've missed her. Thank you for sharing. I'm off to go look for one now. Have a great week.
@@theknittystew Yes, sure did, she was a blonde haired one and at one point I cut her hair pretty bad job and got yarn from my mother and glued it on her head brushed it out and it looked crimped. I wish I know what happened to her.
I laughed when you said you were ‘finally’ getting in board the buzz with the Musselbrough hat… I am also about to cast in my first one! Partially because I want that simple mindless knit for times when that is required. I am also midway through the yoke of a Jessica McDonald pattern: Winter Woods with big snowflakes… but so was tempted by My Fletching. And I am planning to cast on my first Ranunculus (gasp) after I get a couple WIPs done. So many great patterns to knit and designers to explore. I love watching your adventures and listening to your chatter - you have such a pleasant manner - vibrant and calming at the same time. 💛
Hello from a fellow “Airdronian”. I too was at the Creekside Yarn festival. My second time going. So mush to see and feel! I enjoyed your podcast. I have many of the same goals as you do this year. Good luck with it all.
I love that you have reignited an old passion for dolls. I used to be into ball jointed dolls and even designed knitwear patterns for them. Have you considered knitting for your old doll friends? I've never had a Blythe doll, and I know they come in several sizes, but I believe my Pukifee knitting patterns fits one of the Blythe sizes.
Your Fletching is fantastic! That is one on my list of want to makes. Also the colorwork beanie is WoW!! Great catching up with you, always a fun time!🥰
Always enjoy listening to all your yarny adventures. I love the Finull and have made one sweater. I plan on knitting another one soon using a different pattern.
The "Just for the Halibut" sweater is a beauty! Hard to make a jumper with zero imperfections. I also enjoy trying recipes and I am my worst critic as we all gobble it down with gusto. You are more critical than anyone else would be.
GM Glad to see you this morning The sweater you have on is gorgeous … beautiful work 😊 your makeup bag and your hat are so cute !! My sister in law lives in Airdrie and I’ve been several times thanks for bringing back memories of living in Strathmore going to the mountains was my favorite !!! Have a great day !!😊🥰
It is so much fun watching you! Thank you for another great episode. I love finull, and all those wooly Norweegian wools, but coming from Norway I guess I have to. 😉😂 I hope you'll have a great week.
I thougt I'd insert a picture in my answer, so I answered you on instagram, but it seems that since we have not chatted there before I could not insert it. So that didn't help... anyway.. 🤪 ... This is what I wrote on insta: When I use finull I usually use a 3 mm needle, or 2,5 mm needle. With colorwork I have a slightly looser gauge than with a single color. On a 3 mm needle with colorwork my gauge is 25/10, and with single color it is 26/10. I think.
I LOVE your doll pictures so much! 😍 So cool!
Thank you Britt! There are quite a few on my Blythe Insta true.north.blythe (periods between the words)
Your colorwork hat is just gorgeous.
Thank you Ann!
Your doll photography is amazing, please do show some of your photography on this channel, its so creative.
Your Halibut Pullover is absolutely beautiful 🖤🤍
Thank youuuu 🐟
That hat is WOW!
Thank you Elien!
Holy Mackrel, that halibut pullover is a stunner!
😂
Love your halibut sweater. I would have to say your knitting is more advanced than you think. I enjoy you & your channel so much. Such a good variety of content. Always my favorite Leanne! 😘
Aw Pati you are the sweetest
You are such a delight to be “around” (virtually!). Thank you for your beautiful podcasts ❤
Oh thank you!
There are a group of us from Regina going to knit city in Calgary too!
Nice. Can’t wait to meet Team Regina!! 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Awesome
I came for the knitting - stayed for the puns 😉
😆
I am right there with ya on the Treysta sweater. Happy knitting !!!
I love the dolls! Never heard of them but they are stunning looking in your photos. There is never enough time to explore all our hobbies. It’s wonderful that you have so many interests!
I totally agree!
I love the dolls ! Thanks for all the great info too.
Thank you Kim! 🤗
What a great sweater; kudos to the designer and to your knitting skills
Thank you! 😊

Thank you ☺️!!
Love your neckline on the halibut - it looks so warm.
I love your sweater, it’s beautiful! Oh, the Fair Isle hat is amazing! ❤️ Your stitch work is beautiful.
Thank you so much!

Ugh yes the idea of hitting a wall during a learning curve is what keeps me from starting! But once I get started I am a determined Taurus.
I have reknit a headband in brioche so many times...still trying to get the right size and to fix the MESS at the join.

Love the hat! Love the Halibut sweater … and those dolls? AMAZING!
Thank you ☺️!
That LetLopi is ❤❤❤
That view sure presents a certain aspect of Canadiana! 😂
Haha… right?! Ahh Saskatchewan and hotel parking lot views. This job is ALL GLAM 😂 🤣
Everything is beautiful, especially the hat!
Thank you for such a wonderful podcast! Your colour work beanie is just perfection. You give such wonderful information in such a calming manner. So great to spend an hour with you as you are so inspirational.
🤍 aw TY Heather 🤍
Your dogged perseverance paid off on the beautiful Halibut sweater. Gorgeous.🥂
Thank you! I would say this project tested my resilience the most of any project in a long while!
I adore your hat!!
Thank you I really really like it! Ella Gordon is a master
You have an amazing channel! Enjoying your content. Very inspiring!!!!!

Please never stop making puns! 😂
Oh dear, I don’t think I will be able to stop!

Love you and your channel sister!! I don’t remember you and the dolls…the photography is amazing!! You are so talented ❤
Thank you for watching sister. I don’t have to look very far to see that creativity “runs in the family” 💗💖
Thank you.❤️

You are so right! 💚💚 I will!
A Musselburgh Hat is on my 2024 To Do List, for sure. Love your dolls and their photos!!! That is so neat. Love it!
Great episode. Nice to see Canada’s Airdrie. I work in the Scottish Airdrie. They look very different!
Oh my goodness i can imagine! i think the only thing they share is a name! Thanks for messaging and saying hi 👋🏼
Your Halibut sweater is awesome! Great job. Sleeves and length are perfect. Looks very comfortable.
Gosh, I have FOUR Jennifer Beale patterns sitting in my Ravelry library! I love her designs but have been intimidated trying to knit them. You’ve thrown down the proverbial gauntlet so looks like I’ll be knitting one as my 2024 challenge. As always, I love visiting Canada by watching your TH-cam channel 😊
A fellow Canadian podcaster Nikki of @knittingwithcathair is hosting a Jennifer Beale KAL! Extra motivation 🤍
Your Halibut sweater is perfect--including the sleeves!! And, I love your intentions. My knitting intention is to use up stash and resist buying more yarn!
You can do it!
The sweater you have on is so inspirational. I definitely will make this sweater after seeing it on you
It really is a make that I am proud of, would not make it again, but would make the Halibut mitts in a heartbeat 💗
Leanne! Your Halibut sweater looks amazing!! you know you will never be cold with it on lol. I loved all your projects as usual. so much inspiration. I'm definitely adding the Fletching in my favorites! Always fun to catch up with you friend! Stay warm out there!! 🥰🧶
If I wear the Halibut and my Musselburgh at the same time I may spontaneously combust 😆
Hat is Gorgeous! I laughed when you had it over your face. I've done that before. Also- your borrowed "time is more precious than money" quote is really intentional and thoughtful. Thanks for sharing.
💗💖
😂cold here in Michigan too. Sitting in a my little bit of winter woods. Thank you for sharing your and life.
Thanks for watching Ellen! Stay warm!
This episode was great. I love your color work hat! I have made one Musselbough hat and it is my favorite for winter! It’s so fun to be on your trips with you.
Thank you!!
I stick my yarn down inside the Musselburgh while knitting and it’s even more portable!
Brilliant!!
Love your Halibut sweater, it has a very Native art feel. New sub, I'm always glad to support a fellow Canadian. Hello from BC.
Hellooo to you in BC 👋🏼 thanks for watching! 🇨🇦 Whereabouts are you?
All your work is beautiful
Hi from Northern BC. How nice to see a Canadian blogger. Part of the reason I follow yarny bloggers from around the world is to hear and see their particular areas of the world. With you being an air stewardess, lovely to see different parts of our own country.
Awesome I am glad you’re here to travel with me Lorraine!
Thanks for all your sharing!!!! You are amazing…truly amazing!!!! ❤
Thank you so much Jo!
Ella Gordon is an incredible designer. She also works at Jamieson & Smith in Lerwick, Shetland. Your hats are beautiful. Well done!
I did not know that she worked there!
@@theknittystew- If you ever have a chance to go to Shetland Wool Week, do it. It’s a very special experience, more than just yarn.
Your lovely sweater of Halibut is terrific and the sleeves look identical and in keeping with the style of the sweater. This is my first time watching, here in Calgary, AB, and am knitting a Rowan pattern, Barlow, with their gorgeous yarn, Alpaca soft DK. It’s lush.

Hello Leanne! I bought the Rowan wool from their website. Funny thing is that I was the first person knitting the pattern and after frogging the cable 3 times I realized 2 errors in the chart.

The balloon sleeve makes it look so cozy! What a wonderful choice of modification!
Great episode!
Thank you Larajean!
Your hat is mind-blowing
I live in Airdrie! The Polka Dot Creek store is right beside my husband’s office and the town and Country Centre where the yarn show was held is right beside my kids schools😊
Thank you so much for coming to my store and the festival! 🩷 I talked to so many people who were so excited to have met you! 💕
What a fabulous festival and your Polka Dot Creek team is so lovely - love your shop!

That hat is marvelous!!!
Thank you!
Your sweater is beautiful! I will say that I would not prefer such a deep yoke and the sleeves remind me of a swoncho.
I love your punacity! And now, after seeing your houlle hat, I will have to try some colour work
Please do! The colourwork rabbit hole goes on and on and ahhh cannot get enough of
Thank you for sharing all of your beautiful makes. It is always a pleasure to listen to you talk about your knitting and the enthusiasm is infectious. ❤ I am a late adapter too and just bought the Musselburgh hat pattern and will be making at least 1 this year.

So wonderful to spend some time with you Leanne!! You are a colourwork master!! That hat is truly amazing!! I wonder if you could cut the extra bit of colourwork off and reknit the ribbing? You are making me want a super bright sweater!! Must start thinking!
Thank you Selma! What a GENIUS idea to cut off the extra inch and re-do the ribbing. I think I might just do exactly that!

Love your Halibut😊 Wondering if it would make a cozy poncho?? 😊 Knitting is a lot like golf, you can learn something new every day 😊 🧶🧶🧶
That was so much fun and the puns were certainly well placed. :D
Your Halibut sweater looks fantastic on you - the colours are really complementary
Oh thank you!
Brioche is absolutely easy and FUN, very rhythmic and satisfying. Big bang for the buck as they say. Go for it!

Just adore your channel. That sweater on you is fabulous. …. Fantastic. You are so much fun. I come away inspired. Thank you for sharing. As well…. I am enjoying the Cutbank Girls. Yarny goodness.

Airdrie has grown! It was a village when I visited my grandparents in Calgary in the 1950s. Have fun with your 2024 intentions .
Happy New Year! Wishing you a wonderful 2024!
Same to you!
Great podcast!!
Thank you Lucile!
Sending happy new blessings to all. Oh my word I can't believe it, I'm seeing my very favorite doll from my childhood, Blythe!!! I've missed her. Thank you for sharing. I'm off to go look for one now. Have a great week.
You had a real one?! That’s amazing!!

Yes that green Fletching is gorgeous and fun!!
I like your plans for this year. I’ve been actually thinking about pulling out my violin. Thank you for continuing to make such great videos.
Violin is such a beautiful instrument!
Your Fletching is fantastic! That is one on my list of want to makes. Also the colorwork beanie is WoW!! Great catching up with you, always a fun time!🥰
Thanks so much!
Thank you for this Videos ❤ I have Blythe Dolls too, Iam 58 now and play with Dolls😅 kind regards from Germany Birgit 😊
How many do you have Birgit!
Always enjoy listening to all your yarny adventures. I love the Finull and have made one sweater. I plan on knitting another one soon using a different pattern.
Yes, I could see Rauma Finull becoming a favourite!
I'm definitely team Blythe! And would love to see more of your photography 💓 Thanks for sharing!
Yay! Thank you!
The "Just for the Halibut" sweater is a beauty! Hard to make a jumper with zero imperfections. I also enjoy trying recipes and I am my worst critic as we all gobble it down with gusto. You are more critical than anyone else would be.
I sat down to knit your neck warmer …how wonderful to sit and knit with your new episode. Thanks!
You did! Thats so cool! Which one? The North Wind Cowl or the Fall Fire?
@@theknittystew sorry, no. The Red Hot Neckwarmer…even it if I had to rip back and go down a needle size after 6 rows…but it was done and blocking…
Love your Halibut sweater, neck and sleeves look great. Only think I’d have done is knitted the sleeve rib shorter to match the bottom.
I love to knit and crochet small little bags to carry tea to carry the toiletries or just the spare bag to carry a book as I travel

Glad to see you this morning
The sweater you have on is gorgeous … beautiful work 😊 your makeup bag and your hat are so cute !!
My sister in law lives in Airdrie and I’ve been several times thanks for bringing back memories of living in Strathmore going to the mountains was my favorite !!!
Have a great day !!😊🥰
Have a great day Debbie!
It is so much fun watching you! Thank you for another great episode. I love finull, and all those wooly Norweegian wools, but coming from Norway I guess I have to. 😉😂 I hope you'll have a great week.
Thank you for being here! Yes, I think perhaps it’s mandatory/law to love Rauma and all the amazing Norwegian wools if you are from there 😂 haha
May I ask what needle size is your favourite when you knit with Rauma Finull? And favourite gauge?
I thougt I'd insert a picture in my answer, so I answered you on instagram, but it seems that since we have not chatted there before I could not insert it. So that didn't help... anyway.. 🤪 ... This is what I wrote on insta: When I use finull I usually use a 3 mm needle, or 2,5 mm needle. With colorwork I have a slightly looser gauge than with a single color. On a 3 mm needle with colorwork my gauge is 25/10, and with single color it is 26/10. I think.
Your halibut pullover is so awesome!! Wow!!!
