My favourite part of the pre-christmas season is a little tradition my uni friends and I started in our first year of uni, where each sunday is dedicated to some kind of creative activity. There are reading / story afternoons, music and singing, crafts, baking… It‘s always lovely especially since we are all usually so busy, but this is always a time of reconnection and calm.
My favorite part of the time leading up to Christmas is choosing/making gifts for my loved ones. I get more excited picking the gifts out (or making them) and anticipating their reactions than I do about anything else. I do enjoy the decorating and the carols and the food we have for the holidays, but nothing beats making my loved ones smile.
The pre-Christmas time is a pretty magical ones. I love the coziness of little lights in the darkness and decorations. Rolling up on the couch with some music and a knitting project - it couldn’t be any better. 🫶🏻🎄🥰💝
The best pre-holiday vibes for me is making knitted gifts for my grandchildren. I am truly impressed with your knitting expertise...you will be a master knitter soon by the looks of your 'beginner' projects...bravo to you.
I love the October - December period where I get to make a lot of little knitting projects for my friends & fam. And then seeing them wear hand knit socks when it gets colder
I love watching your videos when I knit, they are so calming. My favorite thing about the pre- Christmas time, are social gatherings where everything smells of Christmas and ideally it's snowing.
My favorite part around Christmas is walking in the snow and looking at all the Christmas lights. Also, congratulations! I love all of your beige knits! Thanks for this contest!
Hi Marlene, I really enjoy your knitting podcast. My favourite thing about the time leading up to Christmas is how happy and excited everyone around me is 🙂
Thank you for the lovely knitting channel and the calm inviting space you have created. I love the anticipation of Christmas and stealing quiet moments of joy in the early mornings with coffee, woolly yarn and knitting before the madness the day brings.
My favourite thing to do in Advent is spending time with my family. Since having kids, advent and Christmas is extra special to me. Congrats on 1k+ subscribers! I really enjoy watching your knitting podcast!
Really pleased your getting noticed, I will share with my craft friends. The best part of Christmas for me is sitting knitting and crocheting looking at my tree and all the twinkly lights we have around the house. I'm going to catch up on what I have missed so far. Thank you Marlena.
Ah, pre-Christmas time. Crazy stressful, eh. 😅 I do dearly love this time, though. Cocoa and twinkly lights, the smell of the tree, and the sound of instrumental Christmas music, we fill a basket of seasonal books, and everything is just lovely. I think my favorite part of this time, though, is the evening crafting by the warm lights on the mantle. Maybe with a bit of peppermint tea. Lovely.
Congratulations on your podcast. My favorite thing about this time if the year is time away from work,spending time with family and getting lots of time to knit.
Usually I love decorating, putting up the tree, and so on, but this year we've not been well, and have had some financial issues, so we are kind of struggling to get into the Christmas Spirit. Congrats on your 1K milestone and here's wishing you continued success!
Congrats on 1000 subscribers! I really enjoy watching your videos. My favourite part of the pre- Christmas time is to sit by the fire and knit while watching knitting podcasts.
My favourite parts of Advent is decorating Christmas cookies as well as wrapping presents. My own little tradition is to sip Irish cream sitting on the floor wrapping gifts late at night after my four kids were all tucked in. Now they are all adults but I still do it. And they all still ask me to decorate cookies. The mess gets bigger the older they get, but I love that they still want to do it even in their 20’s. I’m sure in few years there may be grandbabies that also want to participate. ❤
My favourite thing about pre-Christmas is spending time with my loved ones, bake cakes or cookies for my family, knitting and think and prepare gifts for my family for Christmas
Congratulations! I love this time of the year so much. For me the best is to show my daughters all the traditions like getting a tree or baking and see their shining eyes. Have a great time 🌲
My favorite thing about pre Christmas is getting gifts for all of my loved ones. I love trying to think about what each person would absolutely love but wouldn’t expect. And then I get super excited thinking about their reaction when they’ll open it🎉
Hi Marlene! Congrats on the 1K milestone! My favorite part of Christmas is hot chocolate by the fireplace with a fuzzy blanket and a knitting project! Thank you for the giveaway!
Congrats Marlene on 1 k! Greetings from Finland. We have a lot of snow this year. A little tip; Little Bloom Yarn is fingering weight (400 m/ 100 g). If you hold it double, then it is DK. Thank you for your lovely videos
Pre-christmas fave will always be the candles and cozy lights! I live in northern Sweden so it's super dark this whole season and the lights really make it bearable and lovely
I'm so happy that I found your channel! I feel like a bit inspired to cast on the Sweater No 18 now. My favorite thing about the lead up to Christmas is the lights on people's houses. My husband and I take very cold nightly walks to look at the lights and it is very magical.
Thank you for another great knitting podcast! I think I’ve now been convinced that I should knit the Sophie shawl. I’ve heard so many talk about it and now you. 😊 Your Christmas tree is beautiful. I especially love the orange decorations. My favorite part of Christmas is dreaming about cozy Christmas times while making holiday crafts, like colored wax paper stars or baking old family cookie recipes. 🎄❤️🐖 Congratulations on hitting 1000 subscribers! 🎉
My favourite thing leading up to Christmas is slowly making my house festive, and by Christmas my house feels so cozy and Christmasy,and I enjoy it so much. I like all your colour choices in yarns. Happy holidays, look forward to the new year, and being inspired by your makes! Candles too!
Congrats on (at the time of commenting) 1.5k! 🎉 My favourite part of the pre-christmas time is gift knitting while watching podcasts, reading cozy books and baking cookies 🎄
My favorite part leading to Christmas is decorating my home. I do a little bit at a time, just adding little things, nothing crazy but it keeps the spirit of Christmas alive through the routine of life.
My favourite part is usually when the day comes that all the pre-Christmas time to dos are done, no more meetings are scheduled and one can fully engage with the most cozy time of the year.
My favorite part leading up to Christmas is thinking about what the people I love would enjoy for a gift and planning gifts for my family and friends :)
Hello, I’m really enjoying your podcast and the projects and colors you choose to knit. I’d like to say my favorite thing about pre-Christmas is the anticipation of giving gifts..I collect gifts for others throughout the year so for some I’ve been waiting months to give them! Thank you for offering a giveaway, congratulations on the success of your podcast
I just discovered your instagram/videos recently but love the calming vibes of your videos and getting inspired with what you're working on. My favourite part about Christmas is the general cozy and festive spirit, seeing all the lights and decorations. I've been living abroad for some time now, and I love how family and friends reunite back home around Christmas time -- it's so special to get to see everyone, and I cherish that even more since moving away.
I enjoy baking christmas cookies and love the smell of christmas tree. It is so atmospheric to sit beside the tree when the lights are on and just knit.
Liebe Marlene, ich habe deinen Podcast in den letzten Tagen entdeckt und ich glaube, er wird mein neuer Lieblingsstrickpodcast 😍 Das schönste an der Vorweihnachtszeit ist für mich die gemütliche Atmosphäre, die Weihnachtsbeleuchtung und kuschelige Abende auf dem Sofa mit einem Strickprojekt und einem heißen Tee ❤
Hello from Beausejour,Canada!! So happy you are knitting socks!! Everyone needs homemade socks in their life. My favourite part of preChristmas time is all the gift knitting. I love giving my handknits!!
Congratulations Marlene on 1k subscribers! Love your podcast talks about various knitting projects. Always happy to learn about projects podcasters are knitting on so I get inspire to knit some. I am happy looking at all the Christmas festive lights lit up at night. I make homemade chocolates, I used to bake cookies when my kids were young. Continued success with your awesome podcast! Keep up the awesome work! ❤❤
I discovered Marlene like 2-3 weeks ago and I am so happy for her milestone and excited to see everything she knits. Mostly all her knit choices are in my knit list now :) So definitely Christmas season for me its the strongest knitting month, not only for the chritmas atmosphere but also because it helps me to go over the darker months of the year :)
❤ Love your podcast and looking forward to following your knitting journey. There is so much to love about Christmas here in the Southern Hemisphere (Australia). The slow-down and relaxed feel of holidays for everyone. Early morning walks along a calm sandy beach, just dipping the toes very occasionally into the warm water. Catching up with friends and family over a leisurely lunch under a cool shady tree. Delicious summer fruits, cherries and strawberries made into chocolate cherry trifle or strawberry cream pavlova. And of course lots of knitting time for all those lovely summer tees.
Congrats! 🎉 Your video are very calming and I really enjoy watching them. For me the best pre-Christmas time is putting lights everywhere plus all the traditions conected with advent time 🙂.
I love seeing everyone's decorations. Beautiful giveaway! I've seen other channels say if they mark the package as a gift there haven't ever been any fees for the giveaway recipients. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Hiddenite North Carolina!!💜💚🌻🌻
Liebe Marlene, herzlichen Glückwunsch zu mittlerweile fast 1500 Abonnent*innen 🫶🏼 ich folge dir schon super lange auf Instagram und liebe deinen Knitting Podcast sehr! Was ich besonders an der Adventszeit mag, ist die gemütliche Stimmung - sich abends auf dem Sofa einkuscheln, Stricken und einen Film schauen oder Podcast hören. My favourite kind of night! ❄️
Congratulations! I love your aesthetics and the patterns you choose to knit. I love the excitement and slowing down at this time of the year. I sometimes find the anticipation during Advent time better than actual Christmas.
Just discovered your videos and love them! Thanks for being here. In the upcoming days to Christmas I love to enjoy the little sparkles of Christmas lights all over and everywhere. Sipping some red wine and taking time to rethink last year. ☺️
This is the first video of yours I've seen, but I'm going to watch the other 3 right away. I'm really sorry for you that your packages keep getting lost! I've had it for a while that my packages were delivered to neighbors somewhere in the flat, who were then not at home for a few days... Since then I always have my packages delivered to the delivery point so that I can pick them up myself. But I hope your packages still come to the surface! This is the second year my boyfriend and I have been living together and celebrating Christmas so my favorite thing during this time is we are making traditions for the two of us. My favorite is now a mega mug of hot chocolate with homemade arancello (like limoncello but made from oranges). 🎄
I love to prepare all the baking and presents for my family. I always try to knit some things but I am always rushing to finish and don't always get it done! I love the cozy vibes of staying in and reading and knitting.
I think my most favorite part of Advent is reading my Bible and learning more about the birth of Jesus Christ. I always learn something new each year. I mostly crochet the things that I wear and gifts for others. Those stitch markers are so cute. I just found your podcast while putting my grandson down for a nap and I picked up my current project to work on to mindless crochet while I watch TH-cam. You are so interesting to listen to. Good luck on getting all your wips done for Christmas and starting the sweater for your boyfriend. I know he will enjoy it.
congrats! my favorite thing about this time of the year is the weather and the vibes (we have christmas during the summer, so afternoons by the pool and summer nights out!)
Ooh, my favourite thing about the lead up to Christmas. This is hard as I actually really struggle at Christmas time. But I thought to myself - there must be something I enjoy. It has to be food and drink. I love to make the Christmas cake and egg nog and mincemeat. Spiced mulled cider when we put up out decorations. I’d say food and drink is my fav. 😊
Hello! Congratulations on your new subscribers. I enjoy your podcast very much! As for leading up to Christmas, the best parts for me are decorating the house with lights, enjoying the Christmas tree vibes each night, trying new seasonal Christmas sweets, and picking special gifts for everyone I love.
Congratulations! I'm usually a 'silent watcher' who doesn't comment, but i feel thats it's a perfect opportunity to thank you for such a great quality content as well as enter a giveaway. As for the pre-Christmas period, I love what most people dread - planning and preparing gifts as I really enjoy giving gifts to others.
My favorite part of the lead up to Christmas is watching all the knitting vlogmas' that people do. Puts me into the holiday mood. Christmas isn't as magical as it was when I was a kid living at home. Now that we are all older and there are no young kids in the family (well...mine is the youngest at 12 but he is no longer into toys and never knows what he wants so just wants money. What's fun about that?!?!) it's more about sitting with family and talking or playing games. Which is nice...but not the exciting memories of my childhood. Which....isn't bad, per se, its just different. lol
I’m a teacher, so don’t have much time before Christmas, but love the Christmas day and relax time after. Lots of knitting projects to do. I have my 5 favorites PetiteKnit sweaters to do. I think i’ll start by Friday Tee. Can’t wait!
Congratulations to more than 1k followers! What I like the most in pre-christmas time are the lights in the dark, blinking and lighting the way. Also, it is the time to slow down - with crackling coldness outside and a nice fire burning in the fire place. Merry Christmas from Schleswig-Holstein, Luisa
My favorite part of pre-christmas time is definitely decorating and, surprisingly, also the adrenaline that hits (and then furiously knitting) when I realize I'm super far behind in making my knitted gifts! I loved the mini sweaters you knitted :)
Congratulations on your successful TH-cam videos! I really enjoy watching your videos while I knit on my projects, thank you for all the effort you put into them! It's so lovely that you and Emma became friends through knitting- I've also considered buying her stitch markers several times, because they really are beautiful! 🥰 For me the best thing about christmas time is cozying up with dimmed lights and candles and soft blankets, munching on homemade cookies while an incense cone (Räucherkerze) is lit up. 🌲❤️ merry christmas!
I just discovered your channel and already loving your content! ☺️ My favourite thing about the Christmas season is the festive atmosphere and really just spending more time with the loved ones. ❤
Congrats on your 1K subscribers, Yay!!! Totally awesome milestone for your channel. I am a new knitter and crocheter. I am planning to concentrate more on knitting in 2023. I want to knit some socks and a sweater. Thank you and good luck. Pre-Christmas is doing the tree and Christmas Eve dinner.
Congrats on your growing podcast. I'm also a fairly new knitter so really happy to watch someone also still learning with every project 😁. My favourite thing about the Christmas build up is the family vibe. We spend the rest of the year so busy that it's nice to all make the time yo get together.
My favorite part of pre-Christmas time is preparing gifts for all of my friends and family. :) Love the videos by the way! Your yarn choices are so beautiful.
Congrats on 1000 subscribers! How exciting! I live in Florida USA so one has to work hard to get in the Christmas spirit with 80 F + weather. 😅. But I love sitting by the lights of our Christmas tree in the evening , knitting and sipping my favorite tea of the moment.
hey Melissa, I actually celebrated Christmas in Florida one year while visiting family and it was indeed very strange to be in a warm climate :D sounds lovely!
Hello! Love your videos, they are so calming :) My favorite thing this pre-Christmas was a tea advent calendar my husband got me. It was a lovely time trying a new tea every day that I wouldn't normally get to try.
Congratulations on a milestone subscriber number 🎉🎉🎉. I love to see the anticipation on my grandsons faces as Christmas approaches. We speak of the real meaning of Christmas with them and not just Santa and gifts. We encourage kindness and giving of ourselves to others. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
For me the best part of pre-Christmas is the fact that everyone just seems in a better mood. It so nice to see people take it slow and appreciate the time in af different way. Big congratulations on the 1k+
Congrats Marlene on the 1000! 🎉 Your podcast has become the cozy winding down podcast for me-time knitting, so thank you. My most favourite thing about the pre-Christmas time must be slowly getting ready for the holidays, and this year I’ve been all about candles. ❤ Also where I keep my yarn: probably not the neatest, prettiest solution but they are in plastic boxes with lids. Those keep dust away, too.
It’s wonderful that your channel is doing so well! Thank you for sharing your knitting with us viewers. My favorite part of pre Christmas is being able to slow down and enjoy more time at home with family. Most especially if the evening includes some hot chocolate and time to relax together.
My favorite activity leading up to Christmas is putting out my Nativity, and decorating every inch of the house. I love Christmas so much. Congratulations on your milestone! I love your sweater. I’m going to take a class on making socks, and color-work n the new year.
Congratulations on your progress! I really love your channel and never miss a new episode 💕 My favourite part of pre-Christmas time is enjoying the Christmas city lights popping up and going to the Christmas market 🥰
Oh I have just found your podcast, I loved it! My favourite pre Christmas is Christmas Eve movie day. All cosy with hot chocolate, pyjamas, movies. Love it x
I'm also knitting myself a pair of mittens, the yarn combo you chose for yours sound lovely! I love all the christmas decor and having time to see friends and family around this time of year :)
Lovely episode! I love all the Christmas lights and decorations you can find everywhere. This year has been quite hectic and the advent time hasn’t been as enjoyable as I hoped but I still loved coming home at night wandering through the streets with all these gorgeous lights😊
hi ! Congratulations for reaching 1K! my favorite part of pre-Christmas is clearly decorating the house with ornaments ans setting up the tree. I love to come home after a day of work and smell the scent of the tree 😍. and also sitting next to the fireplace and drinking a cup of tea 😊

My favorite part of the lead up to Christmas is watching all the knitting vlogmas' that people do. Puts me into the holiday mood. Christmas isn't as magical as it was when I was a kid living at home. Now that we are all older and there are no young kids in the family (well...mine is the youngest at 12 but he is no longer into toys and never knows what he wants so just wants money. What's fun about that?!?!) it's more about sitting with family and talking or playing games. Which is nice...but not the exciting memories of my childhood. Which....isn't bad, per se, its just different. lol
I’m a teacher, so don’t have much time before Christmas, but love the Christmas day and relax time after. Lots of knitting projects to do. I have my 5 favorites PetiteKnit sweaters to do. I think i’ll start by Friday Tee. Can’t wait!
My favourite part about pre-Christmas time is about coming home to my family and spend quality time with all my loved people ❤
Congratulations to more than 1k followers! What I like the most in pre-christmas time are the lights in the dark, blinking and lighting the way. Also, it is the time to slow down - with crackling coldness outside and a nice fire burning in the fire place. Merry Christmas from Schleswig-Holstein, Luisa
I love the nights sitting by the Christmas tree leading up to Christmas 😊
My favorite part of pre-christmas time is definitely decorating and, surprisingly, also the adrenaline that hits (and then furiously knitting) when I realize I'm super far behind in making my knitted gifts! I loved the mini sweaters you knitted :)
The best part are all the candle lights and watching advent series with my girls
Congratulations on your successful TH-cam videos! I really enjoy watching your videos while I knit on my projects, thank you for all the effort you put into them! It's so lovely that you and Emma became friends through knitting- I've also considered buying her stitch markers several times, because they really are beautiful! 🥰 For me the best thing about christmas time is cozying up with dimmed lights and candles and soft blankets, munching on homemade cookies while an incense cone (Räucherkerze) is lit up. 🌲❤️ merry christmas!
I just discovered your channel and already loving your content! ☺️ My favourite thing about the Christmas season is the festive atmosphere and really just spending more time with the loved ones. ❤
Congrats on your 1K subscribers, Yay!!! Totally awesome milestone for your channel. I am a new knitter and crocheter. I am planning to concentrate more on knitting in 2023. I want to knit some socks and a sweater. Thank you and good luck. Pre-Christmas is doing the tree and Christmas Eve dinner.
Congrats!🎉 I love your podcast!
My favourite part about pre christmas is planning for gifts, decorating and going for cozy walks in the snow🤗
Congrats on your growing podcast. I'm also a fairly new knitter so really happy to watch someone also still learning with every project 😁. My favourite thing about the Christmas build up is the family vibe. We spend the rest of the year so busy that it's nice to all make the time yo get together.
Wishing you all the best and I love the quiet time in winter. 😊
My favorite part of pre-Christmas time is preparing gifts for all of my friends and family. :) Love the videos by the way! Your yarn choices are so beautiful.
Congrats on 1000 subscribers! How exciting! I live in Florida USA so one has to work hard to get in the Christmas spirit with 80 F + weather. 😅. But I love sitting by the lights of our Christmas tree in the evening , knitting and sipping my favorite tea of the moment.
hey Melissa, I actually celebrated Christmas in Florida one year while visiting family and it was indeed very strange to be in a warm climate :D sounds lovely!
love your podcast! my favorite part of Christmas is vlogmas and watching TH-cam with hot cocoa
Hello! Love your videos, they are so calming :) My favorite thing this pre-Christmas was a tea advent calendar my husband got me. It was a lovely time trying a new tea every day that I wouldn't normally get to try.
Congrats on 1k🎉
My favourite part of pre-Christmas, is like today, making cookies with my grandchildren and a snowman in the garden ☃️🍪🎄
Congratulations on a milestone subscriber number 🎉🎉🎉. I love to see the anticipation on my grandsons faces as Christmas approaches. We speak of the real meaning of Christmas with them and not just Santa and gifts. We encourage kindness and giving of ourselves to others. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
For me the best part of pre-Christmas is the fact that everyone just seems in a better mood. It so nice to see people take it slow and appreciate the time in af different way. Big congratulations on the 1k+
My favourite time just before Christmas is... Waiting 😃 these days when everything seems to look like Christmas but it is still już before us. 🤗
Congrats Marlene on the 1000! 🎉 Your podcast has become the cozy winding down podcast for me-time knitting, so thank you.
My most favourite thing about the pre-Christmas time must be slowly getting ready for the holidays, and this year I’ve been all about candles. ❤
Also where I keep my yarn: probably not the neatest, prettiest solution but they are in plastic boxes with lids. Those keep dust away, too.
During advent I enjoy being able to spend time with friends and I love twinkle lights on a Christmas tree.
It’s wonderful that your channel is doing so well! Thank you for sharing your knitting with us viewers. My favorite part of pre Christmas is being able to slow down and enjoy more time at home with family. Most especially if the evening includes some hot chocolate and time to relax together.
I love the wind-down period of december. Everyone is anticipatinng the holidays and the cosyness on staying indoors with crafts.
My favorite part about pre-christmas is all the time spent with family and friends 🎄
Been loving your content, have a Merry Christmas from Denmark
My favorite activity leading up to Christmas is putting out my Nativity, and decorating every inch of the house. I love Christmas so much. Congratulations on your milestone! I love your sweater. I’m going to take a class on making socks, and color-work n the new year.
For me the best part about the time leading up to Christmas is seeing all the festive lights and the general cozy vibes
Congratulations on your progress! I really love your channel and never miss a new episode 💕
My favourite part of pre-Christmas time is enjoying the Christmas city lights popping up and going to the Christmas market 🥰
Congratulations. Happy to have found you. My favorite is baking cookies with my daughters.
Oh I have just found your podcast, I loved it! My favourite pre Christmas is Christmas Eve movie day. All cosy with hot chocolate, pyjamas, movies. Love it x
I'm also knitting myself a pair of mittens, the yarn combo you chose for yours sound lovely! I love all the christmas decor and having time to see friends and family around this time of year :)
Lovely episode! I love all the Christmas lights and decorations you can find everywhere. This year has been quite hectic and the advent time hasn’t been as enjoyable as I hoped but I still loved coming home at night wandering through the streets with all these gorgeous lights😊
hi ! Congratulations for reaching 1K! my favorite part of pre-Christmas is clearly decorating the house with ornaments ans setting up the tree. I love to come home after a day of work and smell the scent of the tree 😍. and also sitting next to the fireplace and drinking a cup of tea 😊
