Thank Nigel for his wonderful thoughts on God’s word. Your podcast always makes my day.
I'm not a person of faith, but I always listen to your messages and they give me a sense of calm. Thanks to your dad and husband for sharing with us.
Ruth, your husband did great! His voice came across very calm and each verse he read was meditative. Thank him for letting God us him.
Thank you to your husband for sharing God's word. I wrote down the 7 promises that we can count on with God. I love knitting and i love your podcasts, but the special time with God often leaves me smiling and helping me to remember to keep my focus on God at all times. Thank you for every podcast. I always finish with a smile on my face. Thank You
How wonderful to hear your husband tell us of the word of God. What a blessing and treat. Please tell him he did a wonderful job ❤️
Nigel's message was such a blessing! Thank you both.
Welcome to the wonderfully addicting world of brioche!! Your husband did a lovely job!
Thank you Nigel. I appreciate you coming on to a knitting podcast (one of my favs) and sharing.
Your brioche does look like fun. Thanks to your husband for his reading and his encouragement. (And, as for last time, it was so lovely to have your father reading. Never mind people who think that the 'matchup' wasn't perfect!)
Thank you Nigel❤. That was beautiful and I enjoyed it very much.
I am completely overwhelmed by your kindness. I donated some of my card making stash to a local Mind charity as paying it forward so you have blessed many people Ruth. 🌻xx. Lovely to see Nigel. Well done. X
Congratulations on learning brioche! Thank Nigel for sharing god’s word with us.
That’s so lovely of you to pay things forward! Such a good example for us all. ❤
I have a LOT of yarn x
I always love your words of encouragment at the end of your podcasts. Nigel was perfect. He gives real Mr. Rogers vibes with his steady cadence and calm manner.
So nice of your husband to share God's word with us. He did a really nice job and I look forward to hearing from him again. Good luck with your brioche! If you're going to have an obsession, that is a good one.😊
Congratulations to the winners! You can tell Nigel he did a great job. He spoke with a calm voice and it was so nice to here him speak. Love the brioche shawl.
Well done Ruth, and well done Nigel! Just as well you can't see us all drinking in every word you both say! God bless.
How lovely to meet your husband and his calm words. I’m so glad you are enjoying your new found brioche obsession! I have never tried but my obsession at the moment is spinning and I don’t want to stop! Thank you Ruth and Nigel for a lovely episode x
Nigel did a wonderful job! I really enjoyed it. I hope he will appear more often. I always enjoy your podcasts. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you, Ruth. I’m so proud of you trying brioche. I’m glad you enjoy it. Tell Nigel he did a wonderful job. I could not tell he was nervous at all.
It was great to spend some time with you today, Ruth and also great to meet Nigel. He did a great job and has a very calming voice. I love your brioche shawl...good for you to learn a new skill..that is one skill that I have not tackled but there are so many beautiful patterns out there. It is always great when you can learn with someone face to face. Thanks for sharing with us!
Please let your husband know he did a wonderful job! Thank you too for your podcast. It was such a wonderful escape for me while I watched. ♥️
Congratulations on learning brioche. I enjoy your podcast so much. Thank you to your father and husband for the devotionals, too. God bless you and your family.
Beautiful projects Ruth, love the yarn for the brioche shawl. Congratulations to the winners too. Have a wonderful week ❤❤❤
Nigel’s a Rockstar 🎉 His reading and reviewing the Psalms was lovely to hear. Ruth I enjoyed the podcast too ❤
You are so fun! Thank your husband for me I was blessed by his encouragement from God’s word. Amen!
Loved it as always Ruth, oh my goodness that shawl ❤ Really enjoyed Nigel’s word, he did a wonderful job. We all need reminding about Gods promises for us ❤️
Ruth your cinnabar shawl is beautiful!!! Not surprised at all that you’re addicted to it! No one will see any mistakes 😉
Dear Ruth, your brioche is beautiful and those colors 😍 you can’t imagine how the thoughts of Nigel of God‘s word touched my heart. My head was full of sorrows and I was feeling so restless, but now I feel so much better and my heart found my anchor again. Thank you so so much 🤗 best wishes from Manuela
Thank you Nigel for the encouraging message from God’s word! ❤
Love your enthusiasm for your new obsession. Lovely shawl. Take Care.
You are my favorite podcaster by far. My favorite part is your devotional at the end!! Please tell Nigel thank you for allowing God to use him. I wouldn’t have known he was nervous at all if you hadn’t said so. 😁
Thank you for another wonderful podcast, Ruth! Please tell Nigel that his message was exactly what I needed to hear today… full of my favorite verses…but he put them together in a way that just blessed my tired heart. Blessings on all of you!
Your husband did just fine! It was nice to meet him! And that Isaiah verse is one of my favorites. 😊😊
First off, I’m shocked that you didn’t have a finished project! Good job on the brioche! I really enjoy your words at the end of your videos and I enjoyed hearing Nigel’s encouragement today. I jotted down the verses to meditate on later. Thank you dear Ruth for brightening my day with your videos!
Congratulations on learning Brioche. It is so enjoyable to do. I have made that shawl twice and now you have put a bee in my bonnet to make another one. No one will ever notice the mistakes.
Thank you Ruth to you and your husband Nigel. It was lovely to hear his reading from the Bible. Oh and Brioche 😮.😊
Thank you Ruth and thank you Nigel!
Thanks for the time n sharing Nigel n God'sWord ❤
I was convinced you had taken up spinning lol. The brioche shawl is lovely.👍😊🧶
Wonderful message from your guest.Thank you. Lovely knitting on the brioche. You’re so brave.
Your Brioche shawl is beautiful. I’m not sure if I will ever be brave enough to try it. Your podcast can never be too long for me. I enjoy every minute. Nigel has a very soothing voice and he was truly a blessing.
Fantastic Ruth 🙏🏻 and thank you to your husband, what a blessing to have him share Gods word, you are blessed and you are blessing us by sharing.
Another brilliant podcast Ruth. Congrats on conquering brioche. I have bypassed it when I see it. Tell Nigel he was a great blessing so much truth from just one verse from God's word. Truly blessed. Thank you and look forward to the next one. ❤
That blue/green sweater is such a nice colour on you!
No FOs??? 😱 Well butter my behind and call me a biscuit!!
Your brioche is gorgeous!! And loved the verses and beautiful words from Nigel. Thanks for sharing, as always ❤ you have no idea how much I needed it. But then again, maybe you did! 😊
Thank you Nigel for your words. I am going through a rough patch right now and your words helped me to see things a little differently.
No finished projects. Brioche will I never but it is beautiful. I have never tried. Happy knitting. Loved the word from Isiah .. presented by your husband ......❤😊❤
You are a lot braver than I am. I have not got up the nerve to try brioche yet. Maybe someday. Thank you to Nigel for his message!
Love the rabbit hole you've dived in to, I agree brioche is meditation.
Love your Cinnabar, Ruth! The color is awesome. Brioche is so much easier to fix than Fisherman’s Rib. I watch your podcast every time it is on. I don’t always comment so thought I would say hello. I asked you to pray for my husband when he was I’ll. You were so kind. He passed a year ago. Miss him so much.
So sorry for your loss x
Thank you Nigel. 🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼
Your shawl is glorious! Well done 😊
Good for you learning something new Ruth, I did the same with one color brioche just lately.
Thanks to Nigel!
Your husband has such a safe and calming way to speak. And very clear and easy to understand, even though English isn't my first language (and I love accents!). Isaiah 41:10 is one of my favourites. I have written it into a song many, many years ago and we used to play it a lot in different events with my friend.
I love the Cinnabar shawl! It’s been on my wishlist for years. Good for you for tackling your fears and trying brioche!
Hi Ruth. Love the brioche. You are doing really well with it. I knew Nigel's name but had never heard him speak. Great message and very calming voice. Thank you both. x
That shawl and the color way looks beautiful!!❤ My sister in love just shared your podcast with me and I love it. I love the sharing of Gods word!! Thank you for being a light in this crazy world. Thank you Nigel for sharing this devotion. Im looking forward to watching more of your podcasts. ❤
So glad you came over x
O, do thank Nigel for his words ! ( and as I don't know him, or how he usually sounds; I couldn't really tell he was nervous anyway ). That was a very comforting passage.
Thank you for another lovely episode, and your generosity to even double that giftaway !
On the knitting; I can totally see why you're obsessed :) Your shawl is going to be so lovely and squishy ! The star mist sock pattern looks gorgeous as well, I can see why you would want to cast on asap..
Thank you Nigel - a message very needed this week for myself. Life stresses seem to have hit me all at once this week from Mother in Law going to Long Term Care, needing a Root canal, to 2 cars needing repairs, and somehow in there the need to work. Thank you and Bless you both 😊
I so enjoyed Nigel's little devotional which helped calm my fearful spirit today! And as always loved what you shared about your knitting! I keep meaning to learn brioche myself but haven’t yet had the time. Soon I hope.
I recently found you! Thank you Soooo very much for all you give and do just through your videos.. today hearing your husband speak from Isaiah 41 was truely exactly what I needed to be reminded of as I am going through a rough thing and fighting the temptation to be discouraged alot ... May our focus be God and His great promises and blessings 🙏 thank you from Oregon and please thank your sweet husband for sharing ☺️
Oh happy day! Great to listen to another podcast!
Thanks for encouraging me to consider brioche knitting 🧶. I’ve felt the same fear about trying it, particularly when people say it’s the tinking back that can be challenging.
Thanks to Nigel for being strong and courageous to share God’s Word with us!
Another lovely episode Ruth ❤
Thank you Nigel (and Ruth) 😂. Gail 🇨🇦

You would probably enjoy the FAB cardigan. It is brioche and so much fun. ( Fluffy Ass Brioche) 🤭
Thank you both. That was so good hearing Nigel and just what was needed. ❤
Ruth, great podcast. Thank you for sharing Nigel with us. Nigel you were great, I very much related to your reading. Ruth, I love your excitement about brioche. I am pretty good at brioche but super terrible at twisted rib! I recognize your passion and excitement with your brioche project because I feel the same inside and out with my sock knitting adventure. All the best, Joyce
Thanks for another podcast Ruth. I attempted brioche as one of the first things I knitted and gave up! In currently doing crochet brioche though and loving it!
Nigel’s little chat was lovely, perfect speed and I didn’t notice any nerves.
Aww Ruth, I was very excited then. I thought you had picked up your crochet journey again 🤣🤣 Lovely to sit and crochet with you today ❤️
Next time! 😘😘
Thank you for another lovely podcast. I was only thinking yesterday of you.
I just messaged a friend in need and then your husband shared a very encouraging message from The Bible. Perfect!
Many thanks for your “company” whilst I knit.
Well done learning brioche, that's my next challenge. I have the Ramble shawl by Andrea Mowry lined up for it 😉
Thank your husband for his wonderful words, great reminders of God's love for us 😊
Doing brioche on an Andrea Mowry pattern is perfect! She is so clear with her instructions. Keep it up Ruth!
Another wonderful podcast with or without FOs lol. Your manner is so happy and kind it always cheers me up. Sometimes I watch more than once to fully absorb everything you are making - you get so much done in between podcasts it's amazing!
There may be a little less knitting in the future but hopefully that will mean shorter podcasts x
@@ruthlovestoknitpodcast oh I hope not! I enjoy every bit of them
Ruth! I think I can speak for all of us and honestly say we NEVER want your podcasts to be short….we think you’re awesome! I’m actually knitting a Salty Air Tee as I watch…love yours! I feel we are kindred spirits across the pond as I have been resistant to brioche for some unknown reason…..but now I may join my friend, Ruth, and learn it as well!!
Go for it x
What a lovely easy to listen to voice your husband has..
Thank you, Nigel🙏❤️
I found brioche very frustrating. I am glad you find it enjoyable. Thanks to Nigel for sharing God's Word.
I always look forward to your podcasts.
Hi Ruth! I have been afraid of brioche also! 😬 Maybe I will take courage from you and give it a try! 🤔 Your shawl will be Stunning at completion! Thank you to Nigel, I Loved hearing him speak God’s word! Thank you for your Podcast, I do Love seeing all of your makes and listening to what you’re up to! ❤
No FO 😮 😂 I love brioche it is addictive.
I enjoyed Nigel's chat/sermon. He used so many verses I learned when I became a Christian. My life took many turns, career changes, marriage, kids (who are all grown adults with kids of their own, one furry), a divorce (I couldn't even pick out a good one in church) several stints being a student and finally retired life. The Lord has blessed me beyond anything I could ever have hoped for. Thanks Nigel. I hope I spelled your name right.
Thank you for another lovely podcast. You're just what I needed today - said a little prayer as I switched on the tablet this morning 'please let there be a Ruth podcast' just to pick me up a little. Had just put my 20 year old cat to sleep last night and having to make the same decision for my spaniel in the next few days 😢 (tough times!!) Your podcast however has put a smile on my face today and loved Nigels heartwarming input at the end. Just what was needed. Thank you 🩵💜
I am doing a late night listening. I still have to sleep in the recliner. My broken arm doesn't need surgery. Yay! I have do something about my stash before something else happens! I loved to hear your husband reading one of my favorite verses. Stay blessed.
You are heading for sleep as we are well into our day. Praying you get sleep and peace of mind as you sit in your recliner. Xx
So happy you're into brioche! Your shawl is just beautiful and so much you've done in such a short time - but I know how addictive it is. I learnt brioche this time last year and my first project was the extraordinary Brioche O'clock by Julie Knits in Paris. Then I did the beautiful Dottie Jane shawl by Lesley Anne Robinson, which incorporates some lace sections as well, and now I have two major projects on my needles as background knits, for when I need that brioche fix between other projects - a second Brioche O'clock, and Stephen West's Flying Foxtails wrap. So, welcome to the Brioche addicts anonymous, 🤣🤣 🤣
Love your channel too - thank you xx
Well done learning Brioche!
I’ve always wanted to try Brioche but find it very daunting , I may give it a go now having watched you mastering it ,thank Nigel for sharing his faith with us
Well done Nigel.
I can see why you are obsessed. I love the rhythm of Brioche it’s so squishy to - t think I need a dk weight brioche shawl for winter!!
Huge thank you to Nigel! Always enjoy your videos Ruth. I have tried brioche in a sweater yoke and my tension was absolute rubbish! I keep meaning to try it again….maybe a simple cowl
Loved the podcast. I’ve always wanted to try brioche- you are very brave. Nice to see yr husband, kind of him to pop in x
Good for you for doing a new stitch. I too, just finished a vest (Hinterim Stein’s Hot in the City) that had brioche designs on it. I learned quickly how to correct those meditative mistakes!
Ohhhhh bless! Another great podcast. I too shy away from brioche. I can knit it, but cannot fix it haha. Blessings on you both : )
Try Woolly Wormhead hats you'll be double addicted
He did an awesome job, very clear and calmly. I really enjoy it very much
I love the brioche shawl you are knitting. It's so beautiful. Your colors are exquisite. It was so nice to see and hear from Nigel. He did so good, and i wouldn't have known he was nervous if you hadn't told us. Well done, Nigel.
I've only done brioche once...maybe 2yrs ago. It was for the Exploration Station by Stephen West. I was proud of myself, but there were a few glaring mistakes that I had no idea of how to fix. I was determined that this year, I'd attempt brioche again. So, I'm going to knit a little summer tee for my granddaughter's 3rd birthday in July. I'll do the Summerlicious pattern, which has brioche in the yoke, wish me luck! Have a look at the pattern...it goes from child to adult sizes 😊
Your husband had the exact words that I needed to hear this morning. I found out yesterday that I may be losing my job and it is very fearful. I know that God has a plan and that this does not take Him off guard. I am praying for guidance from Him for the next step. Please share with your husband how much his words encouraged me. Bless you both!
Loving your new obsession Ruth. And what a lovely husband you have. Nice to see Nigel, tell him that he has a very calming and soothing voice. Bet everyone loves to listen to him. Xx
