Hi Malene, thanks for all the lovely yarn colors, image of Danmark and your music!
I’m super inspired to knit socks now. Thank you for sharing your many gifts with us!
I have never done a swap. I don’t know many other knitters except for the podcasts I watch. Loved watching your sailing adventures and I bow to your prolific sock making adventures.
Thank you so much for watching🎵💖
Dear Malene, it was pleasure watching your sailing adventure, and yarn shop visiting...The most I enjoyed looking at beautiful old houses in old streets...like from a fairy tale...We do not have yarn shops like you do, knitting is mostly underrated in my country, wool is usually thrown away in garbage by farmers...all in one, one sad knitting story...so, no knitting friends here and swap buddies...but there is internet and so many lovely knitters and knitting podcasts I enjoy watching...Yours is so calming and always filled with beautiful colourful socks 🥰...it is cure for my eyes and my soul...Thank you for your time and effort.
Thank you so much for your sweet and kind words and for spending some time knitting with me🎵💖
I love the music portion. I always knit while i watch podcasts and for a few minutes- I just stop and close my eyes and Breathe. Thank you!
Thank you!🎵💖
Such lovely music on here. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have never done a yarn swamp but I think it is a really good idea. Such lovely socks you made. I particularly like the Mermaid Socks.
The past couple of years I have done Advent Swaps. Very nice way to do it. Thanks for a hyggelig episode. The boat trip looks sooo nice😊
Hi Malene, Love your beautiful Podcast. It's so relaxing to knit and listen to you. Tank you so much for the wonderful Time you give us.
Thank you Tanja🎵💖
I love all your creative pursuits and the bonus cat content. We're going on our family holiday next week so I'm planning the knitting projects that are coming with me.
Thank you! Have a great holiday🎵💖
Congrats on reaching 6k subscribers! I always enjoy seeing the beautiful socks that you make.
Tak for super hyggeligt og inspirerende selskab💚💚💚
Hey Malene, thank you for this episode. I especially loved your piece of music with your footage of this so cute island. And for your socks my favorite ones are the navy with red and white stripes and speckled heels. Classic colors with a hint of fantasy. I love swaps as it's twice the fun : first preparing the parcel of my swappee and finding, gathering and making what will please her and then opening my parcel and discovering what she prepared for me. Last time, I sewed a project bag for her as she doesn't sew and she made me an embroidered needles cushion as I don't do embroidery; and now we're planning a scrappy yarn advent's calendar. We all have scraps and mini advents calenders are ridiculously expensive.
That sounds so lovely!
Tak for hyggeligt selskab🤗
Hello from Swansea, Illinois. I love your piano music it’s very nice. I also love your knitting.
Thanks for another wonderful podcast episode to give me company while knitting. Love your calming voice and music accompany. I have learnt of so many new podcasters from you. I also have improved my sock knitting after listening to your tips on sock knitting.
Thank you Anita! I know I said that you can only know you've won if you see it on screen, but since we have already been in contact - would it be possible for you to email me at sockknittersclub@gmail.com? Then I can get the price from episode 18 out to you:-)
Hi Marlene, I have done quite a few swaps and am always amazed at the lovely thought that my partners have had in putting the parcel together! Soooo fun ❤
It’s such a treat🤩
You make your socks beautifully! They look so great, I hope mine will look as neat and perfect as yours some day.
I so enjoy your wonderful piano playing as well as all the yarny goodness. I haven’t done a yarn swap before but I loved seeing your little balls of yarn candy. It looks like a fun event to participate in and connect with other knitters.
Thank you Melissa🎵💖
What a lovely podcast ❤. I am recovering from a migraine and relaxing with a sleeping puppy on my lap and your gentle voice and soothing music was just what I needed so thank you ☺️.
I participated in a swap last Christmas and it was great. I got some lovely yarn and treats 😁
What a lovely way to recover with a sweet furry friend close. Hope you feel better🎵💖
Thank you for another great podcast. Your socks are so lovely. I knitted a pair of socks for my daughter in the Van Gogh Starry Nights colourway and she loves them. That whole Van Gogh inspired sock yarn collection is beautiful. I was really interested in your swap. A few years ago, I was contacted by a lady called Nicola on Instagram after she saw pictures of my knitting. She made bags and asked if I was interested in doing a swap and since then, we have swapped items every now and again. She has made me beautiful bags for me and my sewing daughter and even as a prize for the knitting group I run - we have an annual 'making' competition so prizes are needed! In return, I have knitted socks, cowls and a shawl for her. We even managed to meet two summers ago, when my husband and I went on holiday to England where she lives. I live in Northern Ireland. Thank you for sharing your lovely knitting and playing beautiful music in each episode. I look forward to the next one. xx
What an amazing story you have with your knitting friend! Thank you for sharing😊💖
I don’t have anyone sharing my knitting love….😂 So I’m super thankful for podcasts like yours! Love watching you.
I loved the sailing footage! We sail too, and it feels so grounding to sit and knit on a sailboat out on the lake (we sail the Great Lakes). I hope Lars had a wonderful birthday!
That sounds amazing. Such a beautiful area!
Love seeing all your finished socks! I think I need to make a pair with a ruffle soon!
Loved the snippets of your holidays and the cat and of course all the socks. 😊 Thanks again for such a lovely episode.
I never did a swap before, but I would love to do one for advent with sock yarn leftovers. I think it would be really fun to knit scrappy socks with it.
Thanks again for another entertaining hour. I never did a swap, but I think it’s a good concept.
I have never done a swap but I think it would be fun. Congrats on the well deserved 6,000 subscribers! I enjoy everything about your podcast, even the inspiring intro! Thank you for taking your time to enrich our lives! Tak. 🦊
Thank you so much Amy! Your kind words mean a lot:-)
I think your cuffs are great
❤❤enjoyed that so so much ,,malene 🎉🎉
Wow,,,it goes so fast,,,
Knitting socks while watching ,,,,love all ur socks,,,🎉

I have done a few swaps
I found your channel through the Ollie + Bella podcast and I'm so glad I did. Love all your beautiful projects, yarns, and project bags. And, how neat that you are a musician. I'm a professional violinist and a pianist as well. 😊
Thank you for visiting! How cool that we are both musician🎵🤩
Congratulations on 6000 subscribers. I have never done a swap would love to do it. Love all your finished projects.
I love your podcast!!!
Tak for hyggeligt strikkeselskab 😊 Jeg har stadig tilgode at bytte garn med nogen.
Thank you for another lovely episode. I swapped an advent calendar with my sister Anita. ❤
Your music always transports me to a soothing place. I have never done a swap but it looks like so much fun!
Thank you!
the sailing trip looks so fun..I have only done a scrappy yarn advent swap..it was a lot of fun...
I do hope you open an Etsy shop! I enjoy your podcasts! I’ve been working on socks this summer too. I just learned to knit them and this is my 4th pair. Each is a little better than the last, which makes me happy! Thank you for sharing bits of your life with us! Enjoy your summer!
Thank you! I hope you have a wonderful Summer too🎵☀️
Have not done a swap but I think I’d like to try one! Love your piano music and all your knits. Beautiful sailing footage.
Thank you for being my knitting company Malene😊. Your podcasts are very inspirational. I love your socks😍. I would love to do a yarn swap with another sock knitter! I'm from Finland but I'm happy to send to other countries too
Thank you so much for joining me! Swap are such fun - especially when you swap outside your country. So many new and exciting yarns to try:-)
I love your bags with your logo. Especially the black since a piano is black k and white
Thank you🎵💖🎹
Again such beautiful socks. Great video about the trip, love seeing all those swans.
Happy belated birthday to your husband.
I have done swaps before, mainly with Dutch people during advent.
Thank you for the birthday wishes for my hubby. Happy knitting and have a great week:-)
Such a calming podcast! I've never done a swap before! Sounds fun. Looking forward to hearing about your MAL!
Thank you! I’m so happy you like it🎵💖
Your podcast made my evening soo much more enjoyable! Love the music😊
Thank you for another inspiring episode. In answer to your question, I have never participated in a Swap. Happy knitting! 🧶
I love that green yarn color way of Little John. Yes I have done a swap through Ravelry, as I was desperate to find just a couple more skeins of a specific yarn for the blanket I was making. Love to knit to your playing and I’m so glad i found your podcast through the other podcasters I regularly watch.
Very cool! Thank you. ❤
Forgot to mentioned that I really enjoyed your adaptation of 🎶Don't Worry, Be Happy. 🎶☺
Thank you!
Congratulations on reaching 6000 subscribers. I have never done a yarn swap……yet! 😊
Love all of your finished socks! I also love knitting socks and pairing up different yarns with different patterns! You must knit quickly to have so many finished pairs of socks to show on your podcast! I think your cuffs look very neat and tidy! I have never done a swap, but would like to try it sometime.
Thank you Vicki!💖🎵
You play the piano beautifully. I never learned how, though two of my daughters took lessons through Grade 8; the other daughter plays violin. I sing. It's great getting together with them for times of music. Of course, I also knit - sweaters, accessories, shawls.
Oh wow! How amazing that you get to make music together🎵💖🤩
You have such a sweet podcast! Last episode you showed the Gudron heel. I immediately bought the pattern and knitted up a sock to see how it fits. Love it!! Thanks!
How cool! I'm so happy to hear you like them:-)
Det er en fantastisk swap du har fået. Dejlig musik og mange skønne sokker. ❤🎉
Malene 💖🥰 I loved catching up with you and seeing all your FO’s. Singles are so much fun! I crocheted a shawl a few years ago using an advent calendar which was all singles and it was gorgeous! I love the pattern and I’ve added it to my shawl list. Love all your socks and I’m so happy you loved all your swap goodies. Have a wonderful week 🥰🧶🧦☕️😘 🐾
Thank you so much Sherrie. I'm enjoying my sock in the yarn from you so much:-) Have an amazing week! Hugs:-)
I love all the socks!
I love doing yarn swaps with friends. I love the mystery and the surprise
I came over from Ollie and Bella and must say… WOW! 😮 Your channel is a happy place for me, where I can switch off my mind and let the stitches flow. 😊 To your swap question: I used to swap like 20yrs ago with patchwork blocks. Still need to make something out of it. But the day has only 24hrs, and I have many crafting hobbies. So, one day… 😉
Thank you so much for your kind words and for spending some of your precious time with me🎵💖
I have participated in several swaps and love them! Love your podcast -- your voice is so relaxing! Love all of the socks, too!!
Thank you!
I have joined the the Secret Santa sock swap and the winter wishes sock swap
Thank you for another wonderful episode 🤩 I have done woolswap three times and I love it a lot ❤
Thank you🎵💖
Enjoying your podcast. I have not done a yarn swap but it sounds like fun.
Another entertaining episode Malene with so many beautiful socks! I’ve never done a yarn swap but may suggest it to the ladies in our knitting group. Perhaps an Advent mini swap!
That’s a great idea🤩
Swaps can be such fun, I especially like them when you know who you are swapping with. That yarn shop you visited was very pretty!
Hello from Duluth! Thanks for another great podcast! I’ve done a swap once. It was great fun getting a package ready and also receiving a package ❤
Oooh Duluth! Makes me miss my second home😍 We lived in Superior but both my host parents worked in Duluth😊
Stort tillykke med de 6000 følgere ❤
I enjoy every of your podcast, so lovely knits ! And if you play the piano, it’s amazing 🤩.Hope see you soon in the next podcast.
Thank you!
Tack för ett trevligt avsnitt o för fin musik 😊 Er segeltur såg härlig ut. Önskar Dig en fin vecka 🌻🌻🌻
Tusind tak! Også en rigtig god uge til dig:-)
Hello Malene! Another wonderful episode. Your boat outing looked like so much fun and you had such nice weather! The island you visited was gorgeous! Such beautiful architecture and so colorful with all the flowers. It looked like the perfect, quaint little Danish town and was just breathtaking - thank you for sharing that with us and happy belated birthday to your husband! I'm a solitary knitter here in Ohio, USA so no swaps for me, but I do believe I recently turned my best friend on to knitting so fingers crossed that a yarn swap will be in my future🤞🏻
That sounds wonderful! I thought my best friend to knit many years ago and it’s such a joy to share the craft🤩
I do not have any knitting friends. But a couple of friends have recently shown keenness to learn knitting and I have started teaching them.
So that’s is lovely.
I have never participated in a yarn swap. Thanks for the beautiful knits that you shared. Love your piano piece ❤️
Thank you! I taught my best friend to knit and now she knits all the things and we have so much fun crafting together🎵💖
You have become one of my most favorite persons to listen to! ❤ Your voice and piano playing is so soothing as I knit on socks or another current project, a shawl.
I have done swaps before when I was in a group in ravelry but that was several years ago. I’m itching to swap again.
Thank you so much Stephanie! You are so kind to take the time and watch!
Loved your episode! Thank you so much for taking the time to share all those informations. To answer your question, I never participated in a swap.
Jeg nyder at følge dine podcast. Så hyggelige og inspirerende. Tak❤️
I really enjoy listening to your lovely podcast. Your music is always so beautiful. I have never done a yarn swap (new to knitting) but one day would like to.
As usual a great episode! Congratulations on 6K subscribers. I have never made a swap since most of my friends are not knitters.
Hello, I really enjoy your podcast and your calm, beautiful energy. I haven't ever done a knitting swap. Love the yarn you chose for the prize.
Thank you so much for your sweet words🎵💖
I have never done yarn swap but it looks so fun! I don’t have many yarny friends in real life but I hope to do one someday 😊
I love to watch your podcast ❤I never did a swap… but I was a week ago, 2 weeks in Denmark near Copenhagen, with my family and also with my mother. When I was a child, we went every summer to Denmark with our hole family! I love your country and all the very lovely friendly people ❤ I both a lot of yarn around Copenhagen and Odense 😂 big hugs and hygge from Switzerland Désirée
I’m so happy to hear you had a great time! What lovely memories to have. Thank you for sharing🎵💖
Thank you for another wonderful podcast! It’s so relaxing to listen to you! I’ve never done a yarn swap with anyone - sadly I have no knitting friends at this time! Hopefully that will change!
I enjoyed your video and seeing all of your makes. Congratulations on 6K! I did participate in a swap years ago but haven't thought of doing one since for some reason.
Congratulations! I have never done a yarn swap. I made your dragonfly socks and they turned out so cute.
Thank you! I'm so happy to hear you like them:-)
Another wonderful podcast! Thank you for sharing and chatting with us :) I have never done a yarn swap but it sounds like a lot of fun so I'd definitely be up for it if the opportunity presented itself ☺️
Hyggelig podcast😊
Hello! I love seeing all the socks!!! I am inspired by all the color! Love the three by the sea’s design… I have not done a swap but think it would be great fun! Love the peek-a-boo bag for Halloween! Have a lovely week! Stephanie 💜
Thank you and you too:-)
Congrats on 6,000+ subscribers, I feel blessed to have just over 600. I love your logos, My son did the one in my circle. Swaps are fun, I have done a few shoebox swaps with other crocheters.
What a great logo! I love that your son made it for you:-)
Tak for hyggeligt selskab og dejligt musik. Tillykke med over 6000 følgere🇩🇰.
Wau så mange smukke strømper du har strikket. Jeg har aldrig et garn swap😁.
Congratulations on your many subscriptions!
Thank you🎵💖
A new subscriber here.
I am trying to climb again on the knitting wagon, I used to be a prolific knitter
But I still have my patterns, knitting needles, and even some wips 😅. I'm happy to be here with you, I hope to one day visit Denmark.
Love, north Texas.
Thank you and very happy knitting🤩💖
I do love spending an hour listening to you chatting away while I knit. My most recent swap with a friend was raw fleece. She gave me a cream & tan coloured Corriedale and I gave her a white Border Leicester. We both love to spin our own yarn and share when we get our hungry hands on a gorgeous fleece 😊
That sounds amazing!
I always enjoy your podcasts. I have never done a yarn swap but I would like to. I think it would be so much fun!
I have never done a yarn swap but I’m hoping to do one for the holidays 😊
I love watching your podcast and all the knits. I especially am inspired by your piano playing. I usually try to find the piece you play and practice it myself.
That's so cool! Thank you Sue:-)
Today I am at my sewing machine, sewing for a new baby in the family. It’s always such a pleasure to watch and listen to your podcasts. I have been knitting socks all summer for the grandkids, although I am itching to start a sweater or cardigan. Congratulations on all your subscribers!
Thank you and congratulations on the new baby. Such a blessing!:-)
Tak for endnu et hyggeligt afsnit 🙂 Jeg har aldrig prøvet at bytte garn, men det kunne være sjovt
Love the bags with your logo on them, very cute.
I've never done a swap so far. th
I will keep an eye open for the Halloween bags.
Thank you!
Tak for et afsnit fra dig☺️💫 Fine ting du har fået lavet. Jeg har købt opskriften på det lille sjal fra Stephen West og glæder mig til at komme i gang med det 🌸🌸
Oh such lovely socks you’ve made! I’ve done several swaps in the past and they have given me (besides yarny goodies) some delightful knitty friends. Unfortunately the postage prices from the US to the rest of the world has become absolutely prohibitive for me right now so I have not been able to participate in swaps lately. I enjoyed my Sunday morning visit with you today. Thank you. Until the next time. Salam wa sa’aadah
Thank you Linda! I couldn't agree more. Shipping prices are crazy!
Hej Malene tak for en hyggelig podcast. Det er så dejligt at se alle dine strømper, det inspire så meget. Nej jeg har ikke prøvet at swappe garn endnu. Dit nye logo er så meget dig, perfekt. 🎉
I am a lone knitter in the Southern USA , so I love watching your channel. We have very similar interest in fiber arts however I do not play piano . I admire those who can play it is so wonderful that pianists share their talents. Make it a great day!
Tillykke med de 6000 abonnenter 🎉 swap har jeg endnu tilgode at prøve😅
I love doing craft swaps! Especially with people in other countries because I get goodies that aren’t as readily available here in the US.
That is what I enjoy too. So much fun to get to try new yarns and things:-)
I loved your podcast, found you through the Ollie and Bella podcast. ❤ I did a swap for the first time early this year and was sent some gorgeous hand dyed yarn from Austria 😀
Thank you! That sounds like an amazing swap:-)
Som altid smukke sokker og musik ❤
Congratulations on 6000 ! Such great news. My daughter goes in for breast surgery Friday, good thoughts and prayers needed. Thank you.
Many prayers and well wishes for your daughter! I'm so sorry to hear she has to go through this!
@@ThePlayfulKnitter Thank you so much ❤️
I enjoyed watching your video.. the view on the boat was beautiful.. thank you for sharing all your beautiful yarn and projects..
Der er utroligt inspirerende at se dine episoder. Har ikke prøvet at bytte garn, men overvejer det til jul🎄
