Thanks you for sharing, wonderful to see Nicole and see that she is doing well…. And to hear that she can still knit !! Blessings to you both ❤

Ice Sickles- those silver threads that until metal trees with light wheels came out use to be hung on a real tree. Her hanging garland needs ice Sickles! 😂😮❤

My , how wonderful to see Nicole looking so much better … even with the limitations of the illness , what a positive outlook on future projects ❤… such a brave lady … Your friendship shone and was so special … happy Christmas and many more happy moments in 2025 ….

Absolutely joyous to listen to you both, thank you for taking the time to make such a beautiful podcast, you are both such an inspiration 🤍

What a wonderful vlog with the two of you! You each look like and sound like kindred spirits. Nicole's gentleness and calmness is so beautiful to see again and I look forward to the time when she begins vlogging again when the time is right. Thank you Sarah, you are such a kind and generous person to share this special visit with Nicole. All the best and merry Christmas to you both.

What a wonderful Christmas gift that was! Thank you both for this episode! ❤

Thank you Sarah for bringing Nicole! I enjoyed your conversation so much. Wishing you all the best, Nicole on your journey to recovery and hope to see you soon. Missing your gentle podcast! Love, Christina from Austria

So wonderful to see you NIcole, and Sarah too obviously!! And I’m delighted you plan a return, I still love watching your episodes and use them for comfort viewing. I wish you both a peaceful, warm and healthy Yuletide . Best wishes from Scotland ❤

So good to see you Nicole and to know that you are on the mend! I really miss you and your youtube videos and I look forward to seeing you well enough to come back to making them. Wishing you the best of health and a very happy Christmas season 🥰

So grateful to see Nicole again, what a journey she has gone through. So nice to see that as for many of us , knitting is a lifesaver. We've missed you, but totally understand why . Wonderful to hear that you have another dog again. Thank you so much Sarah!

Best wishes for you two. Soooo lovely to see Nicole again, she’s the best 🙏🏻

Hi Sahra and Nicole! So satisfying to watch you ! I have missed hearing Nicole talking,her soft voice... All the best for you !❤ Sahra can you please write the name of your colorwork sweater? It is so stunning ! Love and peace to both of you !❤❤❤

So Lovely to see Nicole, I have missed your videos as a longtime viewer. Sending you lots of ❤. Thank You Sarah for sharing your visit with Nicole.

Wonderful to see the two of you together talking knitting. I'm happy to see Nicole and hear about her progress and knitting. Thank you both!

I’ve been thinking of you Nicole, nice to see you. Hope all goes well.❤😊

So lovely to see you again, Nicole! You were the first knitting podcast I found and subscribed to 5 - or was it 6? - years ago when knitting took over much of my free time. I followed the vlogmas episodes, took comfort in your podcast in the throes of covid, and looked forward to every podcast. I'm so glad to see that you are doing better and still knitting.

Loved this. Just wanted to mention that William Morris is the name of a designer. It’s one man not William and Morris. He is and was hugely influential and has left a wonderful legacy of patterns and designs.

It was so unbelievably lovely to spend some time with Nicole again! Thank you for this!!

Thank you SO much for sharing your time with Nicole! She was the first person I ever watched on KZbin and she still inspires what I knit and how I conduct my days! Made me teary to see her again. Knew I missed her but just not how much until hearing her voice and seeing her again. Just wonderful!

So lovely to see you and "your friend Nicole", as you often say, together! ❤

Good to see you Nicole, very sorry to hear you have been poorly. I love your vlog and miss it and look forward very much to seeing your knits and hearing your chat in the future xx

Wonderful podcast! Thank you Sarah for bringing Nicole to all of us. Nicole you are missed in our knitting community and can’t wait for you to comeback. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your surgery. Lots of blessings for both of you and your family ❤❤

Thank you to both of you for sharing this sweet interlude! Of course Nicole has been sorely missed in the world of knitting podcasts and so this has been such a treat. How wonderful to think you are envisioning an eventual return to recording your making journey! Big thanks to Sarah for making this happen.

My heart jumped when I saw this episode come up!!! So so lovely to see you both together again❤ So wonderful to see how well you are doing Nicole and how happy you are discussing your books, your projects, your future projects. I just finished rewatching for the second year your last Vlogmas. It’s my way of ‘getting’ to spend a little time with you until you return. And I know you will❤ The most happiest of holidays to both of you ❤ Thank you Sarah for sharing your visit with Nicole all of us 🙏

Hi Sarah and Nicole, what a wonderful podcast. So inspiring. Thank you both❤❤

Thank you both. You gave my knitting mojo a kick in the pants. Nicole you look wonderful. I am so happy that you are seeing improvement.

Thank you both for this video. It is so good to have an update from Nicole and that optimistic and fun knit talk is reining!

Thank you, Sarah, for sharing your conversation with Nicole ❤ I love both your blogs. 😊

So great to see Nicole and learn what's been going on for her. I send many wishes for continued healing, and look forward to Nicole's returning to You Tube when she's able.

So lovely to see you Nicole! What an inspiring conversation. Thank you!

Ah what a pleasure to see you, Nicole (and Sarah, as always)! Thanks for updating us on your beautiful knitting adventures and dreams (the Eriskay gansey is also one of my dream knits). I miss your calm presence and aesthetic here on KZbin. Hope to see more of you in the near future. Sarah and Nicole - are either of you familiar with Hillesvag yarns, particularly Vidde (light worsted)? I share your loves of wooly yarns, and if you haven’t knit with Hillesvag pelt yarns yet, I would strongly recommend them to you both. I just finished a Saglan in Vidde and it’s just the most cosy thing. The yarn is so light and fluffy for a worsted-weight. Thanks to you both for treating us here. Happy knitting 🌲

Love Nicole!!! So glad to see you better now. It would be lovely to see you again here, even if it’s with a shorter podcast or less frequent. Blessings on your friendship ❤ love to both from Ontario

Oh my goodness, soooo delightful to visit with you both but seeing Nicole brought such warmth to my heart. She is so loved by this community. Thank you Sarah for bringing her on and sharing your visit together ❤❤

It's so wonderful to see Nicole - I think of her often and hope she's doing well. What a lovely conversation - thank you for sharing it with us!

Nicole! I was so happy to see you. Your recover is moving along nicely. You look fabulous! Take care.

So good to see you both! Have a beautiful holiday season.

So great to see Nicole! You are both among my favorite podcasters and knitters! So glad Nicole is making such good progress, and I hope the new year brings continued healing. It would be wonderful if she can resume podcasting. Many, many thanks for an inspiring and heartwarming podcast.

Hi Nicole; just wanted you to know you’ve been in my thoughts over the last year. Didn’t want to post on your channel as I thought you were taking a much-needed break. So glad to see you on FibreTrek (a new channel for me). You are so missed! I have always appreciated your esthetic and envied your knitting skills. Sending you much peace and joy this season and wish you all the best for 2025! Thank you, Sarah for a lovely episode!

Thank you Sarah - how wonderful to see Nicole and and to see how well she is doing. Nicole I wish you every success on your upcoming surgery. I was thinking of you recently since I am also knitting the Eastwind Jacket and am now seaming the pieces. Best wishes to both of you.

Ahhhh Nicole, I am waiting patiently for your return to your podcast as I know you will, all in good time once you have healed, THANKYOU Sarah for giving us the chance to see her once again. Sarah can you please tell me the name of the lovely sweater you are knitting with Lopi yarn. The transcript was glitching and I was unable to catch the name and source of the pattern, THANKYOU

So lovely to see two good friends sit down and talk about knitting. And, so wonderful to see Nicole again. Best wishes to you both🥰

I miss you so much, Nicole.

So heartwarming to see you two together. Nicole, please know that you are missed and I’m glad that you are progressing. Best wishes for continued healing. Sarah, your sweater is gorgeous and thank you for sharing this wonderful episode.

What a lovely surprise to see the Gentle Knitter in such good form. Happiest of holidays to you both!

This was a very pleasant surprise to see Nicole. She is as lovely and inspiring as I remember. I so look forward to her return to the podcasting community. A very Merry Christmas to you both.🎄❤️🎄

So great to see you both chatting together.
