Hi Sara! This was my first time watching your podcast and I loved it!! I have two yarn advents this year from Dandelion and Dogwood and Bumblebee Acres Farm. I've gotten quite a few ideas for my advents. Thanks so much for this.

[@janfujii3972]

So happy to see you again. Your blanket and socks look amazing! Could you tell me where you got your stitch markers? You said the name but I couldn't find anything that sounded like what you said. 😆 Happy Holidays!

[@saralovesockwool1490]

Sure! The stitch markers are from www.lachandlou.com

[@janfujii3972]

Woolens and Nosh advent socks called peace and joy

[@karen6603]

Wonderful to see you. I was hoping you do a Christmas podcast 😄

[@theknottyoaktree1017]

Thank you for sharing all your projects and lovely yarn advents. I love there is a scripture reading Advent. I will have to remember this dyer for next year!!! I'm getting my first boucle yarn in today and I'm very excited.. and nervous like you about trying this yarn. I'm planning on making the Little Wolf Knits pattern called the Second Ave Sweatpants. In her pattern she uses a 4.5mm and 3.75mm. I'm interested to see how it feels. I love your episodes and was so excited to see this one up. Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas filled with love, family, and peace.

[@lindamontefu6599]

I absolutely love seeing your podcast. Jesus is the reason for the season.

[@taffysue1]

[@saralovesockwool1490]

You are so kind! Thank you!

[@Joellencox]

I stay do the color work o the sleeves, but not on the ribbing and you can get it done! It’s beautiful!

[@suzannehollinger2833]

[@debrasusan73]

Love this!! Thanks to The Crazy Sock Lady for leading me to your channel. Love the nativity advent to keep with the reason I celebrate Christmas! I want to do that next year. Love all your stuff and you!

[@hartleyshandmade8471]

I got 3 spinning advents. So worth it. I have never got a yarn advent but of lolo does the faith based one next year it will be on my list! I love that there's a dyer that represents the true meaning of Christmas ❤✝️

Beautiful sweater

[@fourwindspoweredparaglidin6453]

Oh I’m so happy to see you! You were the first podcast I started watching and it was during Christmas years ago. I don’t feel like Christmas starts until I hear your voice!!!

[@saralovesockwool1490]

Oh my goodness!! Thank for watching and being a long time viewer! Merry Christmas!!🎄

[@One_Skein_Short]

I always enjoy your episodes because you inspire me with your gentle spirit and beautiful projects. Jane is adorable. Merry Christmas!

[@saralovesockwool1490]

You are so kind! Thank you!

[@kristinahill3708]

You exude joy! Thank you for sharing your makes with us. I love advent season and reminding myself of my need for Jesus, so grateful He was born to save us.

[@saralovesockwool1490]

Thank you!! Yes, it’s so important to remember what advent is all about!

[@onesweetlife2469]

I’m making the Anthology Throw with my Suburban Stitcher pink advent! Just found your channel! ❤

[@saralovesockwool1490]

The anthology is such a great pattern!!!

[@Paddyjk8]

I’m so happy to see a new video! It’s always nice catching up with you and your projects. Have a wonderful Christmas season! ❤

[@mommajessknits]

Lots of great projects! I love your daughter’s sweater!

[@saralovesockwool1490]

Thank you!! I sure hope I can finish that sweater!😅

[@millieburrell1078]

It is so wonderful to see you! Juliet's sweater is gorgeous! I hope that you and your loved ones have a wonderful holiday and all the best in the upcoming new year.

[@HedgeWitch13]

Hedgehog fibres December colourway is called Snowy..it's delicious 💖

[@saralovesockwool1490]

I just ordered snowy!! Can’t wait! But I’m guessing it probably won’t come until after Christmas at this point but that’s okay!

[@melissalampman7214]

Hi , I was trying to find the stitch marker maker you were talking about, In your transcript, it is lock and L , which I could not find on the web or Etsy.. I would like to look at them, I want the peppermint candy one, but she probably does not send to Canada

[@saralovesockwool1490]

The stitch markers are from www.lachandlou.com I’m pretty sure she does ship to Canada.

[@klammityj]

Love when you post a video!! I’m just knitting sock this month!

[@maryp4016]

Such a treat to see you pop up in my feed. I smiled when I saw your Nutcracker socks I just finished a pair myself. Just finishing last of the Xmas socks and have sleeves to do on a child’s sweater so on track. Happy Holidays Sarah to you and yours!

[@heatherinoklahoma]

Another lovely episode! I'm working on a bunch of socks! 😂

[@MsPenelope10]

Good to see you back! I have 2 advents this year, Chelsea Yarns and Opal yarns! Doing a long scarf, with Chelsea Yarns, and the Opal in the Cozy comfort squares!. I have been pondering that Boucle too, Just looking at it I might do a size 4.50mm. Your projects always are inspiring!

[@joannejohnson6]

HedgeHog Fibers has both Pinknas and Snowy on the site as Yarn of the Month - both are so beautiful! So glad to see your podcast - I wish Inhad gotten Lolodidit’s Advent this year but will certainly try to next year!! ♥️🎄✝️

[@lisamartinez6240]

So HAPPY to see you! I'm stumped on what I want to make with my advents. I have one dk and the rest are fingering weight. I am so tempted to start another cozy memories, but I do like your half double crochet blanket idea. I've been making Thickmas socks as well. I've forced myself to put away the dozens of WIPs for the moment. ;)

[@saralovesockwool1490]

I look forward to hearing what you decide to make with your advents!!

[@Tahirra2008]

I couldn't help but to notice the bearded man stuffie 😂 on the mantle behind you . What am I looking at?

[@merricurl7300]

So nice to see you again! Loved sharing your advent knitting with you. Wish I would have bought Lauren’s advent. But I am busy doing @happymermaidyarn advent which is a 12 day advent and full skein theme is Willy Wonka such fun.

[@dmbrown240]

The only advent that I have is a self striping sock yarn from Woolens and Nosh. I don’t have the full size skein but a half. It still has the full 24 stripes in each 25g skein with a gray 20g mini. I tried doing one color stripe on each sock per day but I don’t want to put them down. 🤪 Can’t post them on Instagram until after Christmas. Don’t want to spoil it for anyone. Love seeing all of your socks. ❤️ If I get 3 pairs done this month I will reach 50 pairs again this year. 😁 Great to see you again! ❤️

[@lfuentes8891]

I just found your channel through the Crazy Sock lady. I can say I will be watching you also when I'm knitting. 😊... Also, could you give a link to where I can buy the wool yarn for the Islandic sweater you're knitting, please?... It's so lovely!

[@saralovesockwool1490]

icelandicstore.is/collections/plotulopi-icelandic-wool-yarn Here you go! And thank you for watching!! Merry Christmas!

[@stephhaworth8332]

Hi Sara! Loved this episode! So much fun to see all the socks! I discovered Ruby and Roses thru you and let’s just say my speckle rewards are growing! Love that yarn! I too have the freckled whimsy advent and I haven’t started yet… but have a question. I love the start of yours.. did you use a cream for the beginning of the cuff? Or did you just start with the main color? Happy advent season! Loved Jane’s visit during the podcast. What a sweetheart! 💜Stephanie

[@saralovesockwool1490]

I just started the freckled whimsy socks with the main color!

[@sallyacevedo99]

Yea! You’re back!!

[@FontrellaCole]

I am behind with vlogmas as well. Right now, I am very busy with school and work. After Dec. 11th ( last test), I will be able to catch up on knitting and vlogmas.

[@saralovesockwool1490]

We are soooo busy at work too!! It’s been nuts!

[@pattyskaggs2168]

Enjoyed watching your podcast❣️ always enjoy seeing all of your socks in progress. I love Lolodidit yarn. I’ve started Kay Jones Sock advent…it is Nutcracker socks! I have the Nutcracker project bag and notions pouch ordered from Joanna, Stitching the High Notes. Also her ballet slippers progress keeper…..can’t wait till it arrives (received the shipping notice today) 😊

[@jossiewebb82]

So nice to hear from you. Lovely projects 😁 I would have loved to have the Jesus advent. Making sock with it, makes me think of the armor of the Lord"wrap your feet in peace". So cool😁

[@saralovesockwool1490]

That is so great! Yes our feel clothed with the gospel of peace!

[@jsabri6324]

I've been wondering how you've been doing! Thanks for sharing your projects. I am new-ish and have never done yarn Advents before, but I bought Ruby and Roses after one of your summer videos. I also bought a 24 stripe skein from The Cozy Knitter, and being the rule follower that I am, I am on the exact day of each. I haven't decided what to do with my Ruby and Roses yet (sweet shop blanket?), but I have 2 pairs of socks going, a hat and I'm finishing an HF potluck fade sweater. It was great to see you!

[@theminimalknitter]

I am just trying to finish up all my current WIPs this month. I have three balls of Christmas sock yarn that I am excited to knit, but I enjoy working with Christmas yarn all year! Have a wonderful December Sara! Many blessings upon your family, happy Advent, and Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁 ❄️

[@saralovesockwool1490]

Merry Christmas to you too!!❤❤

Who did you buy the gnome progress keepers from?

[@saralovesockwool1490]

www.lachandlou.com she makes the BEST gnomes!!🎅🏽

[@annaknitter]

You have the Matt Walsh Sweet Baby 😂 That is so great! 😅

[@saralovesockwool1490]

Hi Anna!🙋🏻‍♀️ I’ve been loving your vlogmasses! Yours is my favorite!! And I’m kicking myself for missing out on the January colorway! It’s so gorgeous!!! Maybe you’ll dye it up again in January? And hehe! Baby MW is hiding there. Keeping watch!😂😂

[@stockinettestitch]

Hello! So good to see you. I’m sorry for the strange question (and it’s midnight thirty as I’m watching so I may be seeing things) but is that Matt Walsh as a dog on your mantle? 😂 He’s been cracking me up the whole episode. That sweater is beautiful - you have a good eye for colors. I’m thinking of Ben’s sweater a few years back too. Merry Christmas if you don’t post again before then.

[@saralovesockwool1490]

Merry Christmas dear!! You are correct, good eye! #sweetbabygang it’s actually Matt Walsh as a baby. So weird and hilarious!😂

[@stockinettestitch]

@@saralovesockwool1490 I love it!!

[@CheriKnits80]

OMGOODNESS how do you get your cuffs so tight! I always do K2 P2 and they look stretched or not very stretchy

[@saralovesockwool1490]

I usually always knit my socks with 2.25mm needles. Maybe if your cuffs seems looser just go down a needle size or too and that will cinch it up.
