[@lieveverhelst1605]

Watching your vlogs with self knitted socks is always gorgeous and cosy

[@CherylAM]

I so love your Timber socks! Perfect colors. The hat. First off it is for a DUDE. He will probably lose it or worse. Patons yarn is wonderful yarn. I love it for socks all day long. Sophie your pressed flowers is stunning. It will fit like a dream. Thank you for sharing with us!

[@OldeThymeKnits]

You kept me company today as I prepare for my big day tomorrow! It was comforting hanging out with you and I still am eyeballing that Wilfreda sweater! And I still have yet to do a Musselburgh hat!! so many things, so little time!! All the hugs coming at ya my friend! xoxo

[@maggied57]

Another great episode Sophie! I am a sock knitter and really enjoy Nancy Wheeler’s patterns. 😊 🧦

[@penelopest-laurent21]

Oh my goodness, that Vintage Christmas yarn is sooooo nice! I have to see if they have any left! Thank you so much for the mentions, Sophie! So glad you love your things. You did a fabulous job demonstrating the needle cozies! Definitely renaming those to cover circular needles! Wonderful podcast as always, and congrats to the giftaway winners!!

[@dianesherman6078]

I love the striped socks and your Wilfreda sweater.

[@Marnie421]

Nancy’s sock patterns are so lovely and by the way, your press flower sweater is going to be stunning !!!

[@elenabeyers2088]

I love being in my jammies when I am at home. In fact have them on now while I knit and listen to you.

[@wendycudd4691]

Love your podcast, and love Nancy's sock patterns.

[@theyarngoeson]

I love your smile, laughter and sense of humor!! All of your FO's and WIP's are wonderful, beautiful and inspiring! Excellent episode as always!

[@LesTricotsdeMarie]

I love your Christmas Timber Yarns Sock.

[@marie-louisenordberg7567]

So enjoy your podcasts. Love Nancy’s sock patterns too.

[@Anji2866]

Sophie I think that yarn combo is going to knit up into a gorgeous Wilfreda sweater! Looking forward to seeing it soon!

[@luciaevangelho4593]

I enjoy knitting socks and there are some lovely sock yarns to choose from! Great Episode!

[@bonniehall3194]

I love to knit socks for gifts and donation. Having a pattern for two weights of yarn would be wonderful I am so happy to have found your podcast snd that you reference Canadian makers like Simone and Nancy❤

[@janinegiles-holmes1742]

Great podcast, made me laugh out loud quite a few times with your brilliant sense of humour especially the drooling all over the project bag comment 😀.

[@pennycorrigan2190]

I am addicted to making socks

[@knitnut246connie7]

I love timberYarn sock yarn.❤️🇨🇦❤️

[@janetjroberson2581]

Hello from Swansea, Illinois.❤❤❤ I love knitting socks!

[@sonia411i]

Hi Sophie! The fo are all beautiful! Espacially the socks knitted with vintage chrisrmas yarn😍

[@melissafriedrich3171]

I loved your night time podcast, so fun! Love the socks especially the self striping pairs.

[@caroldaley7187]

I love Nancy"s sock patterns

[@LisaBGregg]

I just found you! Glad I did. I am sitting here knitting a sock while I’m watching 😉😁

[@reginamay76]

Love the podcast ! I also love the pretty patterns for socks you show. The sweater is beautiful!

[@melahatali2104]

I would love a Nancy sock pattern. Yay ❤

[@kristinahill3708]

Loved your festive intro. Beautiful projects. I finished a sock while watching. Thank you!

[@Codenquilt]

Loved your saga about your sweater. The sock pattern giveaway is awesome. Thank you

[@yvonnemariereibin9891]

Nice to meet you, My name is Yvonne and I’m a knitter from northern Manitoba in Canada.can’t wait to hear all about your knitting journey.

[@3a.m.knitter]

Oh I am so with you about reading the pattern in full!! I always just skim the instructions! 😊

[@elizabethryan9633]

I laughed out loud when you admitted that you didn't want to break a sweater quantity to knit a hat! I completely agree and have also refused to break a larger quantity for a smaller project....just in case of yarn chicken. I also have used the exact Patons Kroy for fingerless mitts and hat which my father in law loves because he doesn't have to be precious with them while feeding his chickens. When knitting for someone , we now need to decide if they are knitworthy AND yarn worthy! 🤣🤣🤣 I am just finishing a pair of Nancy Wheelers socks for a Christmas gift

[@kimberlylopez4838]

Love your pressed flowers cardigan! So beautiful. The colors in your striped socks are so pretty as well! 😊Patons is a wonderful brand. I use them for socks all the time. I'll have to try a Musselburough Hat now.

[@quiltingcarole6411]

What a nice visit. I love looking at your wips and finished objects, as well as your dream knits. I only knit socks, but I’m new at it, and I learn something new to try or even think about trying when you discuss your socks or needles or yarns. If you’re not back before the holidays, I hope your holidays are peaceful and sweet.

[@knittysixx5106]

I’m knitting Christmas SOCKS right now. When I watch your podcast I’m always reassured that I’m not the only one making silly mistakes when I knit 🤪. I don’t think you’ll have any trouble getting with red sweater done before Christmas.

[@kathleentanti4387]

Thanks for the company. Currently knitting Rock It tee using 2 colours of fingering.

[@teadreyer1510]

Such a lovely episode again, Sophie.. and loved watching it whilst knitting some socks in unspun Nutiden yarn ✩

[@novelknits8762]

Hi Sophie! I adored this episode - Sophie at night should be a thing! 😁 Your pressed flowers cardigan is absolutely amazing!!! I need to make one also but I’m going to have to wait until after the holidays. Lovely episode and so fun catching up with you! Have a great holiday season! 🫶🧶

[@francinecharron8901]

Beautiful Christmas sock. Enjoyed your podcast.

[@maureensim2115]

First time viewer and was very enjoyable. You are very lovely. I loved the yarn you showed! I am a sock knitter as well and have given away many pairs as gifts. Love knitting!! Obsessed!

[@karihahn6989]

Socks are my favorite thing to knit. Always enjoy your podcast! Have a happy holiday season!

[@milliebenson2163]

Just came across your podcast and will be bingeing on all your other earlier podcasts. Socks !!!

[@theknittystew]

I'm here for any time of the day version of Sophie, but oh my gosh night time Sophie cracks me up! We should get over-caffeinated Leanne and past sundown Sophie together and see what kind of shenanigans unfold! LMAO. I'm thinking PEI FF 2025 would be a good time to test this formula. Anyways, have a wonderful weekend with your daughter at the Volleyball tournament. I hope you get a long and leisurely visit at Fleece & Harmony and not have a time-limit like last time you where in the area. P.S. I love Kroy Sock! And guaranteed your husband will bond with that hat. Until very recently, my hubby's favourite toque was legit SuperSaver acrylic. Seriously?! Yep. But now he has come around and his favourite toque of all time is his Musselburgh in ArcaneFibers because it's 'camo' coloured.

[@TheMomzombie]

I’ve got sooo many socks to knit, I don’t even know where to begin.😂

[@rosemarymoolman6765]

I always love your podcasts! That cardigan is going to be sooooo beautiful. That yarn ❤ is so gorgeous. Everything you make always look so good. I am also looking forward to the Vlogmas's. I have just heard that Knitty Knatty is also doing Vlogmas. Enjoy your festive season with your family. Thank you for all your videos! Love them all. ❤

[@pamwilliams8199]

Thanks to you and your generous viewer for making the sock pattern giveaway possible.

[@sandivandervoort4305]

Crazy Sock Lady isn’t doing Vlogmas this year …. but I recommend My Pink Bathtub (Diane is in Winnipeg) and For the Fun of Knit (Linda is from BC but spends lots of time in Spain too). I also really enjoy Amber from A Lovely Yarn - she’s in Pennsylvania and has a lovely family. Thanks for another fantastic podcast Sophie! Timber Yarns is one of my favourite sock yarns ❤

[@EvieO1950]

Fun episode and beautiful makes!! Happy Holidays🎄🧑🏻‍🎄🎄!!!

[@karenlocke9598]

Great podcast! I love Nancy’s sock patterns. Happy Holidays 🤶

[@danielleboots7032]

Love your projects! My sock knitting is slow, but I enjoy them very much.

[@gmassy8777]

I like your sock Christmas.

[@deborahsmith-parnaby8146]

Great podcast! I really like your Wilfreda sweater. I have had it in my Ravelry favourites for a while. Good to know it could be a quick knit. I watch Linda from the Fun of Knit podcast.

[@swiftknits4341]

Thanks for another great podcast. Your progress is inspiring me to try to finish a pair of socks before the holidays. 😊

[@darlenedavis3585]

Sophie, you are always a joy. I have recently joined you on the Musselburgh Hat and loved making it. You always have incredible projects and beautiful colors. I just finished making my husband a pair of socks from Kroy sock yarn and the yarn tortured my fingers but my husband wears through the beautiful sock yarns and couldn’t care less about them but he loves his knitted socks and the brighter the better. It never hurts to test the waters before knitting the good stuff. I did it backwards and am now repairing socks all the time. You are cracking me up. You need to enjoy your podcasts as much as we enjoy watching them. My husband is not interested in a double layer hat. He overheats in older age more than I ever have. Your decorating is beautiful, as always.

[@lexanneklimes5411]

Oh my! I love all your projects! I get the whole, hesitantly making things for your loved ones. I try to use fancy yarn, but I have a couple of knitworthy relatives that HATE to handwash, so I have to be careful. Those adorable sock project bags are adorable. I love Knit Sip Happy's sock patterns too. Merry Christmas and stay warm!

[@reneebarwick3886]

Enjoyed your recent podcasts. Your pressed flowers cardigan is beautiful! I love making socks and have made one of Nancy’s patterns and found them a great fit and well written.

[@beverlythompson3246]

Hi Sophie- so wonderful to see your video appear in my feed. Love all your projects. I am currently working on a sock pattern by Nancy Wheeler.

[@barbsmiley]

Thank you for another awesome Podcast Sophie. I was knitting my husband a pair of socks for Christmas while watching, using Turtlepurl sock yarn in the pattern Token Redshirt.

[@diannedolha2318]

I went to Ancient Arts today to get the MC yarn for a Pressed Flowers cardigan. I also bought a lovely skein to make another Musselburgh hat. Seems we are like-minded Canadian knitters. :)

[@hbknits]

Gauge- a knitter’s nemesis😂 I’ve done it all- too small, too big etc etc. Blocking on the needles was a good idea. I was going to suggest binding off more stitches under the arm to add width but I see that this wouldn’t work for this design. Making a wider button band will also add width. We can all sympathize with your panic😂 ETA: The Kroy is an excellent choice for a man’s hat. Musselburgh hats are addictive.

[@genevieveleger8639]

Absolutely love your mittens! I’ll have to knit them too! I’m currently doing a sock study and trying out all types of different heels, right now I’m doing the Fleegle heel. Thanks for the company while I’m working on the gusset!❤

[@emilylee9441]

I checked out Yellow Petal bags and accessories. That is for the tip. I love the needle cases. Perfect for my sock needles.

[@jenniferbarrett3272]

Oh my, Sophie, you were so funny on this episode. I was cracking up at your bloopers. Great knits too! That cardigan is turning out so beautiful-it better fit! Lol!

[@tonyalynnd8732]

I just finished a Wilfreda and love it too! You reminded me about the high-low hem and I completely forgot it!! I regret it but not enough to rip back 😊 Thanks for another wonderful podcast!

[@teresadiaz9336]

Hi Sophie, I am deep into the Andrea Mowry sock challenge. Started on Thanksgiving. Seriously it feels like I forgot how to knit! I just have to laugh about it now. As long as I add these mistakes on the new sock. All will work right?! 🤣. Love your Wilfreda! O I love watching Martin from knit365. I think you would enjoy is baking and dinner preps. So good!

[@catherineward8708]

Really enjoyed the podcast Sophie. You reminded me that I really want to make one of those shawl / blankets you made your work friend last year. I just meed to finish my Christmas sock knitting first

[@cheryleschick9754]

Socks from Nancy are great.your socks look great and Merry Christmas and hopefully you get your socks done by Christmas Eve❤️

[@junewilliams9257]

Enjoyed your podcast. Your pressed flower cardigan is going to be beautiful. I just finished knitting my Christmas socks for this season.

[@marie-elysedugal8629]

Oh ton cardigan va être magnifique!! 🤩 I need to make one! And you are so right, Penelope is such a wonderful maker and person, I love her bags too and I was so grateful she also tested my latest shawl and she is a gem! What a wonderful community we have! My heart is full 🥰 thanks for another cozy and fun episode Sophie! Hugs from Ottawa🥰

[@80sgma10]

I've only ever made vanilla socks. Maybe my goal for the coming year should be to knit a sock with a pattern. You make beautiful things!

[@bettygraham818]

Your podcasts are so enjoyable Sophie ! Voices are very important because I have hearing problems and yours is clear and is just the right tone. Socks are my favourite projects both for myself and my lovely son in law. He wears them with his heavy work boots and I need a DK pattern to knit him more.

[@lsdev4229]

Great episode Sophie, I love the fact that you dont have a scripted youtube channel. Having notes is perfectly fine cuz you dont want to miss all the things you want to talk about. Always enjoy your what you are working on and your excitement for knitting. Hope you are getting a chance to use your Hot Tub, jealous that you are PROBABLY/Definitely😂 going to get to Fleece and Harmony. Watching thier youtube episode next🥰🇨🇦Sharon.

[@elisab8096]

Thanks for keeping me company while I knit my sock! 😊

[@kazthomas]

I really enjoy your podcasts. I will be watching some Vlogmas episodes as well. Last year I watched Camijo Knits, Laura Penrose and Annauuti Knits so I’ll probably start with those again if they make them.

[@crystalemmerson1334]

Great episode Sophie. I really enjoy Nancy’s sock patterns. Your pressed flowers cardigan is beautiful.

[@Knit_me_a_story]

Thank you for this another good episode to Spend my friday night with while im knitting! I would love to win the socks pattern! Love it when you get two options in the same pattern!

[@Knit.Purl.Repeat]

Hi Sophie! Your setting is so festive and cozy. Those bags are amazing--the last one you showed as your gift is totally my idea of Christmas (and anytime) colors. All your projects look wonderful and that second Wilfreda will be stunning! (I love the current one also!) For Vlogmas, I watch some of the same as you mentioned, but also @theplayfulknitter is so enjoyable, if you don't already watch her. Stay cozy and Happy December!

[@cindym9574]

Great episode, Sophie. I recently finished a Wilfreda sweater, too and absolutely love it and am currently knitting my second Musselburgh hat. Hoping to cast on a pair of socks on Boxing Day.

[@janicebnz1959]

Hi Sophie, welcome back! I love a your FO'S & WIPs, the self striping sock looks great.❤ I like how your podcast is so natural, it's just like being at knit night with you!

[@alexradloff4095]

Another lovely podcast, Sophie. Thank you. Love your sock knitting - such fun colours. Best wishes, Alex.

[@ericallerton809]

We have way too much snow all at once ,,,,!!!oh my,,,, Take care ELAINE 🏡💕

[@victoriahall4961]

Love your pressed flowers cardigan! I have knit quite a few socks this year but have been working on my LUMME sweater. I need to cast on some Christmas socks!

[@pinelmj]

Allô Sophie, so nice to see you! I love your pressed flower cardi, so pretty. I have 2 pairs of socks on the go and I am trying to finish one pair ASAP so that I free my needles and cast on my new Christmas colorway which looks a bit like yours. I am hoping to wear them on Christmas eve.

[@patriceguise4201]

Hi again from New Zealand Sophie. Love those socks! Gorgeous stripe colours. I watch the same Vlogmas as you plus Camijoknits from Denmark and Laura Penrose from England. They are both excellent. It’s summer here but so much fun to watch all the winter goodness with northern hemisphere Xmas preparations.

[@BostonMelG]

Thank you for the fun evening podcast!!!!

[@saraw8503]

I have my first Musselburgh on the needles now. So I am also late to the party. It is my travel project so it is not growing quickly. We have a new baby in our family and I knit a little coffee bean sweater for her. It is too large, so now I am knitting an Anker sweater for her. I hope the first sweater will fit by the end of the winter. That pressed flowers cardigan made me say, hmmmmm. I have one cardigan (Rebel) a i want another cardigan. I have been considering something with cables. Our coastal NC winters are mild and cardigans are a good choice. Heavy Aran weight sweaters are appropriate only for the coldest of our winter days which are few.

[@sharonvanpelt6005]

I really enjoyed the episode. My first actually as Linda from For the Fun of Knits recommended your podcast. I love watching as I'm knitting which I'm currently working on Everything November mitts and Pothos Tee. I participated in the year long advent along that Kelly and Noelle of Knit Chat Cafe ran and finished my advent sock/socks by Natalie Sheldon. I'm excited to wear them now that it's December. Have a great few weeks.

[@lauriepusateri7493]

Hi Sophie so glad you are back. I am so impressed with all your knits. Thank you for sharing with us. I am busy knitting on socks.

[@kimberlylyons3965]

I just found your videos. It was wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing where you get some of your yarn. I also live in NB (outside Fredericton) and have a hard time finding yarn. I just purchased the mitten pattern and can’t wait to start them❤️ your socks and sweater was so beautiful. Happy knitting

[@nadinesyens2269]

Hi Mark! Thank you once again for a very interesting podcast! Wow! I couldn’t believe you were going to cut your knitting! Merry Christmas from Fort Langley British Columbia! I’m making my first pair of mittens. My daughter requested some for her two toddlers. Woohoo! I’m right on it! I’ve made sweaters and socks and shawls and hats but never mittens! It’s about time, right?? Thank you once again.!!

[@karensinclairknits]

I would love to try the DK sock pattern, thank you!❤ 🧦

[@wendykelcey1246]

Isn’t evening time a blast!! We all make those fun bloopers!! 😂😂 love it! Yay for another fellow Canadian 🇨🇦!! I’m from Ontario. I also bought some beautiful wool from Belfast Yarns a couple of summers ago. ( not enough for the sweater though. 🙃. I’ve knit the Musselburgh adult med. it fits my grandson , but really I wonder if he’ll ever wear it. Really… some males and their hats!! One year I knit a beautiful stranded hat for my husband. Maybe he wore it twice?? Btw.. I found starting the Musselburgh with the magic loop very easy. I really had difficulty following the original directions. I love all your patterns that you’ve shown us!! I’m putting them in my favourites on Ravelry!

[@wendykelcey1246]

Is the word sock in here anywhere??

[@hollandwood2769]

Lovely podcast! I might Small Shop Saturday buy yarn for the sweater you are wearing. I’m an obsessed knitter also! But have committed to crocheting temperature blankets for 2 of my grandchildren so my time is split right now.

[@camderden2879]

I made the Wilfred’s when I was suffering from “Ranunculus-overload”. It seemed like whatever I watched had a Ranunculus in it. I really liked the Wilfreda and it was a great alternative to the big R.

[@teemunkee]

Just found ur channel and I enjoyed it so much…would love to have that sock pattern…thanks for the opportunity to win and praying

[@mahnazlaleloo5812]

I am just going to try to knit my first socks!

[@lisalamper6804]

I love knitting socks but have not attempted Dk socks would love to try them

[@suecaseysuecquilts4301]

Great podcast. I just happened to get some Evolution Sock yarn from Estelle. I've never used it before so I think I'll make the socks that you're knitting. Love the pattern you used for that sock.

[@kristendonovan5861]

I met my goal of knitting at least 1 pair of socks each month this year! I think I have at least 3 more years of sock yarn in stash...

[@HappilyKnitted]

love your excitement about all the lovely yarns! I'm excited for the vlogmas by laura penrose. And the crazy sock lady mentioned that she won't be doing vlogmas this year, sorry!

[@catherinesnider5144]

I have wanted one of Nancy’s sock patterns for a while unsure why I haven’t just gotten one would be nice to win one 😁. Btw the musselburgh pattern is my favorite! I have one on my needles at all times my favorite is to divide up 2 skeins 50 grams each and do a 2 tone one so you get like 2 hats in one

[@Thestashdowndiaries]

Isn't Tracy the best? She's my LYS, which is weird cause she moves, but her home base isn't far from here. Timber Yarns is so fantastic too!
