Albanach Knitter Vlogmas 2024 - Episode 1

[@suzanneshurley1719]

Both sweaters are beautiful! I’m very impressed.

[@juliekainz2025]

Congrats on the beautiful knitted sweater you have finished for your wife. Also, way to go on your sweater! That one will be done soon as well 👍 Happy Holidays

[@katherinegannett]

It's always such a joy to see you, Andrew! Bravo on the completion of the Red Cedar sweater for Mrs. Clark. I can imagine the pleasure and pride with which she will wear it. The sleeve on your Dustland sweater is looking grand, too. Enjoy the cozy, rainy day. Have a fantastic weekend, my knitting friend.

[@bg7491]

Oh my, your wife's sweater is perfect! I'm sure that she will love it, and look beautiful in it. 🙂 And your Dustland looks great too - yes, things will most likely even out when it's washed. You do lovely work, and should be proud of all of your projects. Have a cozy weekend, Andrew! 😊

[@alicehoyle4198]

Andrew - so good to see you, and may I say you did a fantastic job of creating the sweater for Mrs. C. She is very lucky and I know she will have many years of warmth, wearing that sweater. Great job!!

[@angrypanda5042]

The Red Cedar sweater is lovely. Your Dustland is beautiful, and getting close to finished. You have great patience and do such beautiful work. Thank you, Andrew, for such an enjoyable visit. Take very good care. See you next time.

[@karenb136]

Oh my. That sweater you completed is absolutely gorgeous! You did such a professional job. It all looks amazing. 🧶

[@emmabutcher]

Andrew, your wife's jumper is stunning. I love the colours, and the floats, underarms, and sleeves are very neat. She'll be so delighted and so she should be, and, very proud of you. Your Dustland is coming along nicely as well. That join in the back should even out with blocking, but if not, it won't bother you being on the back. Thanks for this episode. Looking forward to the next one. It's summer here in NZ and a pleasant 20° Take care.

[@christinejones7070]

Mrs. clark’s sweater is beautiful. Love your videos, singing and chatting.

[@annerutherford1187]

I’m doing the squares on the Midwinter blanket in the same way you described for the same reasons. I’m taking my time and doing one square every now and then between other things. It’ll take as long as it takes !

[@albanachknitter]

Good to have something to mix it up with knitting, I find. I'm easily bored!

[@scampbell9375]

Such a joy to visit with you in your newest vlog. Congratulations on the competition of Mrs. C's sweater done before Christmas. oh boy, the Dustlund Sweter....lol... good for you for not giving up on it and joining the pile of UFO"'s...lol... hoping you will be able to relax a few days between Christmas and New Year's to just sit and knit and enjoy the quiet of the season, as the storms bluster outside. wishing you health, happiness, prosperity and all things good for the Season!!! Merry Christmas, Andrew !!!

[@TheCatlady63]

MOT- Ministry of Transport certificate. The jumper has come out well. I'm sure your wife will love it.

[@albanachknitter]

Yay - I couldn't remember that for the life of me! lol

[@TheCatlady63]

@@albanachknitter Found out today we won't be moving before Chrismas as there are no removal spaces. Also solicitors still aren't in a position to exchange so no date for completion. We are gutted but it is out of our hands. We will have a very quiet Christmas at home as the boys have other plans.

[@marciaz5346]

I adore the lovely floaty goodness 😂 Job well done! 🌟Happy Advent Andrew 🎄

[@knitawhile]

Your Red Cedar is absolutely gorgeous !!!!! And those UNDER ARMS are JUST AMAZING !!!! 😁💕💕💕💕💕

[@cathyinmt]

Andrew your knitting is so impressive.

[@sarahtoro2514]

It's beautiful! Your wife will love it. Merry Christmas 🎄

[@rachelmitchell2144]

What a lovely Friday surprise! Your sweater progress is so encouraging, Andrew! It’s exciting to see those two sweaters come to fruition! We need a photo of you and the missus in your respective sweaters when the Dustland is complete! 😁 Happy Advent! 🎄✨

[@EvieO1950]

Congrats on knitting such a lovely sweater for your wife!! Well done!! You should be proud! Oh the Dustlin - good to see it again!!

[@marieattebery8588]

Hello Andrew, I always enjoy watching your podcast and catching up with the latest knitting or life events. The Red Cedar Sweater is beautiful and I’m sure Mrs Clark will enjoy wearing it. Your Dustland is looking great! Looking forward to seeing the progress on the blanket in future episodes. Hope you have a great week!

[@maleneschumann04]

Thanks for the nice vlogmas 🕯️The sweater to Mrs. Clark is beautiful both outside and inside 😉 and the Dustland sweater is nice 😊

[@sharonjensen2919]

Hahaha I love your way of thinking...i totally agree sbout the back of your Dustland sweater....Merry Christmas to your whole family..

[@scrapbagstudios]

A lovely visit with you Andrew. Congratulations on finishing the red cedar sweater and nearing the end of the Dustland. Also the start of the midwinter blanket. Life abslutely is too short to knit 24 little jumpers! I think MOT stands for Ministry of Transport. Stay cosy and safe in the nasty weather you are having. See you next time. Cheers.

[@monacarterknight8117]

Congratulations on the big and beautiful finish on your wife's pullover and the renewed progress on the Dustland pullover ❤❣♥️ Happy Christmas 🎄

[@oceansoul3694]

Merry Christmas greetings to you and your Andrew! And of course, happy Advent also. I am sending congratulations to you for completing the Red Cedar sweater!! It's so beautiful, it's just perfect and your wife is a very lucky woman! The Dustland sweater is gorgeous, I'm beginning to knit one for myself, I think it's also perfect for a lady. I've been knitting Rowan's Marin Storey's Midwinter Blanket for months. I'm knitting it with black background and different pattern colors and it's coming out very gorgeous I must say, very elegant. I love your videos, and you always give me inspiration to get back to my basket. I'm knitting knucklers today for the men who pick up the trash. Merry Christmas from Colorado!!

[@valeriebishop561]

How wonderful to see the sweaters!!! And the blanket is started too. I have a 1 whole block done and then went on to other things. I will go back to it this winter and knit with you!

[@debcigna6732]

what a beautiful gift for your wife, praise the Lord He gave you the stamina to finish! blessings for a wonderful Christmas celebration.

[@janchow88]

Thank you for sharing. Your sweaters look wonderful and I’m sure your wife will love hers. We have the same weather with a few days of heavy fog, zero visibility in the southwest corner of Canada. Slow driving but is definitely knitting weather. Have a great week an hope you get some rest

[@sandramcmanus5817]

What a great accomplishment to have finished the beautiful sweater for your wife! Bravo for picking up the Dustland sweater again. I’m sure you can finish it!

[@christiandadswell8202]

The Red Cedar sweater is lovely, well done. And I love the Dustland - keep going. It's on my list to do.

[@kimstinson3499]

Praying your time at Sannox this afternoon was fruitful and rewarding. Celebrated in Spirit with you all there. ⛪️🔔🛐

[@LulubelleH]

Love all your sweaters, especially the wee ones 😁 I think you were wise to stop at four. Your wife's jumper is gorgeous.

[@Barbara-zy6ly]

It is so peaceful to listening to you. And so much joy! Well done on your progress! Have a nice time😊

[@jeanburby6492]

Mrs Clark's sweater is beautiful!

[@felinesewblessed1218]

What a beautiful sweater you’ve made for Mrs. C! I think the sweater you’re making for yourself is absolutely gorgeous….the textures of the different stitches are so beautiful, I think I’ll have to add it to my bucket list! 😀.

[@beckyp9700]

You finished the sweater for the Mrs. !!!! Wow it looks AWESOME!!! Well done. Be very proud of your work. It really is impressive. Your sweater is moving along wonderfully as well. Can not wait to see you wear it. Have a warm Hot Chocolate and family time. Stay warm. See you in the next one.

[@angelapellerin8515]

Congratulations on finishing the sweater! I wouldn’t mind rain. We had 2 days of strong wind and snow here in southern Ontario, Canada.

[@larkrandall5771]

OMGoodness!! Congratulations on finishing the red cedar sweater AND taking up the Dustland sweater to finish! WOW. You've been busy! I made the Dustland socks and love them!!! Your sweater is very well done, Andrew! Looking forward to more videos and sending blessings for a joyful Christmas!

[@tracyguttenberg5659]

Well done, Andrew! The Red Cedar sweater is so lovely! Your bride is being gifted a treasure...I am thinking the pattern may find its way to my home. And how wonderful to see you have dusted off the Dustland sweater. Happy progress!

[@donnakarwoski6074]

Hello Andrew! It's so lovely to see you. That sweater is beautiful! You should be proud of yourself. A true labor of love for your love.

[@theGrateful11]

Nothing says I love you more than a hand knitted sweater from a husband. It's beautiful!

[@janetgillett7122]

Greetings to you Andrew! Your wife will look absolutely beautiful in that RedCedar sweater, well done👏👏 And your Dustlin is on its final lap, stay with it! Bravo 🧶♥️

[@janetwebb794]

Andrew, your cedar sweater turned out amazing! Beautiful knitting work on both sides. You should be very proud of your work. 🧶🏆

[@lilianemann1441]

Bravo, Andrew, the sweater is a masterpiece!

[@margekempf9586]

Oh your wife’s sweater is so pretty. You did a good job she’ll love it!

[@jessiemacintosh6627]

Well done, the jumper looks fantastic. Keep going with your own.

[@margie6534]

Oh my. Your sweater is absolutely beautiful. Well done!!

[@missmuffetsstitches]

I love the Red cedar sweater. You've done a great job!

[@Knit.Purl.Repeat]

I think the four sweaters/jumpers one for each Advent Sunday is perfectly reasonable!--that's a lot of work in those ornaments! Great job on the Mrs.'s sweater! It looks great even before blocking so it's really going to shine afterwards. Looking forward to the finished Dustland presentation! Stay cozy and dry!

[@masz10676]

You should b very proud and fulfilled in completing the sweater. I pray u and family have a blessed holiday. God bless...

[@verenameyer9046]

Well donne with the Sweater. A Baby also needs 9 month😂 love your Podcast❤

[@albanachknitter]

Definitely no more babies in this house!!

[@CindyArnold-e5t]

I’m cricking my neck to try and get a complete view of the Nativity behind you! It is so lifelike.

[@albanachknitter]

Will include some footage of it next time!

[@cmsirish]

The sweater is lovely. I like the colors you chose- Christmas but also just wonderful all winter long.

[@Jenjursnap]

How wonderfully productive you've been! Well done you!

[@tassiegirl1991]

I just love your sweater and so pleased you are back into it. I think it will look super on. Make sure you wear it for us.

[@jeanburby6492]

The other sweater is awesome too!

[@LindaNixon-ws4ge]

Lucky Mrs. Clark . Lovely sweater.

[@jilliankonig2759]

Looked it up - MOT is Ministry of Transport. A different type of ministry than yours. Beautiful job on Mrs. Clark's sweater! Looks almost as good on the inside! The Dustland looks great! I plan a similar sweater with horizontal patterns.

[@marianfairburn8613]

Oh my. I have Bells Palsy. 7 months now. You look great so that gives me some hope. Love watching your knitting podcasts. ( or are they vlogs? Programmes? ) fabulous sweater for your wife. 😊

[@AntisocialAuntie]

You did a fantastic job on the Red Cedar sweater 🧡

[@djh1775]

Your Cedar sweater came out just perfect! I'm knitting Jessica McDonald's "Larch" right now, and it's coming along really fast. I'm a fan of her KZbin channel, her design style, and her easy to follow patterns. She's one of my favorite knitting designers. Have a great Christmas!

[@albanachknitter]

Yeah, I love her designs too. I may do something else of hers at some point.

[@evelynmehrkens6668]

Congratulations on finishing the sweater for your wife,it is beautiful.

[@albanachknitter]

Thank you so much!

[@MrsDuckpotatoe]

I am having fun with all the Vlogmases! I'm eve doing my own for the first time. Recording daily is HARD! Your way is smart.

[@barbaralindeman1820]

Thank you for your podcast, great job of both sweaters. Merry Christmas to you all from a fellow knitter living in San Francisco Bay Area CA USA

[@degangemimi2215]

It’s a wonderful sweater!!!

[@esmekaffen4961]

Yay and congratulations 🥳! The Red Cedar jumper for your lovely wife came out beautifully! You are rightfully proud of it and I hope we here on KZbin get to see her model it🤞🏽. And yay you’re almost finished with your Dustland, which is also beautiful! This vlogmas was a lovely treat today and it was so nice to see you so happy! However many more you can do this month will be much appreciated but of course understand this is a busy month for a pastor. ❤

[@sandylynn8688]

Beautiful sweater!!! I’d be so proud too!!!

[@pppetra]

You, sir, are flying over sleeve island. Thank you for catching up and providing me a few lovely minutes of knitting. I wish i were to receive your wife's sweater.. stunning.

[@KarenMcNeil-en2fn]

So you should be impressed. It's lovely!

[@CStevenson67]

Very impressed with your sweater, inside and out! I really enjoy watching your videos.

[@lynnesanders8215]

That sweater is really lovely. I am sure your Lovely Lady Wife will be so pleased. Take care in the weather to be. I know what is like as I am originally from the West coast oof Cumbria. Stay safe and warm. Love and Christmas prayers to all.🙏🤗

[@dinahdeuel525]

Such beautiful work! You deserve to be proud of both your sweaters! I know Tracy is going to love that Sweater. And Andrew, I think once a week Vlogmas is great. Some of my favorite podcasters are doing daily videos and sadly I simply cannot keep up and watch them all…too much other things to take care of. As a result I’m not watching any of them! I’ll miss some of their things but oh well! But your simple weekly video will be great! Thanks so much 😎😎

[@CathAfloat]

MOT stands for Ministry of Transport😅

[@annielessard4629]

Beautiful sweaters!. I enjoy watching your videos.

[@albanachknitter]

Glad you like them!

[@joy1400]

The red cedar sweater is so pretty!!! I am currently working on the mudo sweater for my husband and hope to be finished before Christmas ! Merry Christmas from Virginia!!!

[@mollywelsh8751]

A beautiful job !

[@susanmyrawills]

[@maggieodendaal3451]

your wife will be happy to get the sweater from you

[@moirabisset5012]

Mrs Clark jumper is lovely. I am on my last sleeve of the Anker 's swearer, very first attempt of top down.Not sure it will fit but don’t care really please with my progress.

[@albanachknitter]

Well done. I did the kid version of it - a nice knit

[@karintrees5445]

I wondered if you had Bell's Palsey. I have it too. Merry Christmas to you and yours!

[@albanachknitter]

It was bad when it happened back in 2004 but I've had decent improvement. Just gets a little lazy when I'm tired.

[@karintrees5445]

I was pregnant with my son in 2003 when it happened. My face definately droops when I am tired too.

[@elisekt1860]

Andrew, I’m truly impressed with your colorwork! I have yet to do a colorwork sweater and I’ve been knitting since 2005. lol

[@albanachknitter]

You can do it!

[@Treasacello]

Lovely taper and underarm catches. You did a fine job! Take time to relax, the ramp up will be on before you know it.

[@LindaNixon-ws4ge]

When the joins are on the back, I move them to a side
