Aro Knits n Purls - Ep. 58 “Width Without Weight and Some Mistakes"

[@katyarncrafts]

Hey Aro, thanks for this video. I love the background, the wallpaper is gorgeous. Gandalf and Mabel are too cute. To me the uncentered snowflake looks like an unexpected and interesting design feature. ❄️ Enjoy the last days of 2024! 🩵

I love that your pets show up. They're just babies, and you can tell how much they love you because of how involved they are/want to be. You now have 2 micromangers to help improve your videos. Also, your black sweater is stunning! I was on the fence about testing in a black yarn, but now I think I will. Also, Gandalf did nothing wrong, 100% innocent. If you need a crochet collar, hit me up. I'll gladly make it for you!

I haven’t been able to watch knitting podcasts for months until now. I enjoyed watching yours, even with Mabel and Gandalf making unexpected appearances/noises from time to time. Having them around adds a new dimension to your podcast and it’s a good thing. Looking forward to the next one. Happy holiday knitting! 😊💕

Yay, a new ep feels like a Friday night present 🎁

[@amistookymuppet]

You look gorgeous in any shoulder-type girl!!!! I loooove your videos and your knits inspire me so much :)

[@mildredalayon7095]

Black really suits you. I kept looking around, wondering what that strange sound was (I thought it was coming from my side of the camera). Pets are like toddlers. They get into everything (😅). Loved the video.

Great to see you again but missing you having your lovely yarn in the background ❤

[@QueensYarnBoutique]

I really like your black Enchanted Forest Sweater! 🧶🖤

It’s so great watching your videos again

[@debrizzo7031]

I didn’t notice the uncentered snowflake ❄️ until you pointed it out. Beautiful ring 💍 congratulations 🎉 ❤

Happy to see you again ☀️

You’re hair and makeup look gives a 1920/1930’s vibe and I’m loving

[@Ashleysknittingcorner1]

The chaotic energy of your video with your fur babies is everything! 🤣🥰🤣🥰 Always a fan of your podcastes. So glad you're back.

[@dreamy_knits]

Your knitting looks really pretty and both the black and the very light sage green colors really suit you well. I may have to skip future episodes though if the pets are around, the video had some stressful energy around it that I just didn't enjoy when trying to unwind with watching and knitting. I see how other people enjoy it though, so it's a me thing, not a you thing.

[@waughtercolors]

I am sure that after a few times it will calm down, they are all getting used to the routine. Mabel will learn to settle during videos.

[@maroussia555]

I really want a black sweater too now!!! 😩

[@ronilev33]

Could you colour block the lower part of the oakleaf sweater? Also don’t worry about what is ‘flattering’, you always look beautiful.

[@808_waipahu2]

LOL! Yes, I hear Mabel. I thought it was my alarm clock…..

[@asagne]

Mabel and Gandalf appearances makes me smile, imo knitting podcasts don't need to be professional. I watch knitting podcasts to feel like I listen to my friend talking about the same hobby we share, so pets, kids or other interruptions are just more bonding. 😊 Or talking a bit about your life. So please, never feel bad that Mable ran into or is licking phone holder / tripod, or that Gandalf is stealing spotlight for a moment. Life is life and I am here for friendly chat ❤

QUESTION on your Sari Nordlund sweater...did you use a cable needle? Or did you cable without a cable needle? I love the look of a sweater, and I love cables, but not so much using a cable needle! Congrats on your engagement! ext time we are in SLC visiting out daughter, I will definitely check out Seed Stitch and Hand Work! Gorgeous knits!

[@arox1647]

@@Munkinmommy I prefer using a cable needle! Thank you for watching 💖

[@MsFuzzyBuddy]

It's great to see you again. Also, "uncentred snowflake" sounds like one of those wacky right-wing insults lol.

Imagine person watching youtube and seeing a video when a woman records herself while she brought young dog to the room and the dog is having fun, as it should playing in the background. The dog does not play 100% in the way it's owner imagined and gets scolded. Should the watching comment? Don't love your dog a stupid love, only because it gives you unconditional love. Get the dog to training or take time to teach it. Scolding is inappropriate and pointless. Teach and correct, but if you didn't teach, don't scold, the poor animal does not understand what you want. Out of love for dogs I hope you will consider taking responsibility for your own actions. I realise it's not fun comment, but you provided the video and to me, I rather put knitting aside. I'm not implying your animals are not taken care of because they do, but in terms of behaviour, you are the one out of place not a dog.
