Episode 39 Joyful Knitting and Block Island Walks

[@rosemaryc9093]

Love KnitCompanion! Can’t imagine knitting without it.

[@deblovejoy1708]

I love seeing block island. And I just finished a cardigan in the same blue linen quill. I thought I would wear it a lot on New Hampshire summer evenings- but not once have I worn it. But I am definitely making the everyday wrap. Perfect for traveling! Thanks for a lovely episode

[@theislandlamb]

Hi Deb, yes, I’m sure we’ll get a chance to wear our linen quill. You’ll get a chance to wear the Everyday Wrap more often. It’s so light weight and easy to through on and take off as needed. Enjoy and happy knitting 🧶 ❤️

[@GreatKnitting]

Your videos are wonderful. Thankyou ! Just what I needed today ! 🦋

[@theislandlamb]

Thank you!!!!

[@zena-knittingbeans7973]

What a lovely walk 😊

[@chloecoutain4278]

Love love!!

[@susanbajdek6698]

The tour was delightful. It looks so serene and beautiful. It makes me happy to see it as I am too old to visit in person.

[@theislandlamb]

Hi Susan, I’m happy you enjoyed the episode. I loved taking you along with me on our walk. Happy knitting 🧶 ❤

[@mljelinek2081]

Loved watching this, BI is a wonder in so many ways......and the shawl could be my next endeavor! Love you tons!!

[@theislandlamb]

Ah, thank you. Yes, that would be a great project for you.

The tour around Block Island was a fun intro into another great knitting video. BL seems like a wonderful place to live a peaceful life. Even though I am a horse owner, I still get giddy as a school girl every time I see other horses. Until next video, enjoy the summer. 🌸🌼🌺

[@theislandlamb]

Glad you enjoyed it! Happy knitting 🧶 😊

[@cjknits3806]

Such a treat seeing that gem of an island and you in that gorgeous top! That bracelet looks amazing on you as well!

[@theislandlamb]

Thank you! Yes, love the bracelet.

[@rosemaryc9093]

KC has their own tutorials, but Very pink knits does great tutorials on KZbin, and many other things.

[@OldeThymeKnits]

Lovely to visit with you again!

[@carlajewett1091]

Another enjoyable episode. Curious to know what that white plushy blanket (shawl?) is draped over the back of your chair.

[@theislandlamb]

Hi there, thank you. That’s a little throw I picked up at Marshall’s many years ago. I love it.

[@barbarawatson1667]

I so enjoy your vlogs and this one was another lovely peek into Block Island. Could you let me know what the colour of your Linen Quill is? Big hugs from Calgary.

[@theislandlamb]

Hi Barbara, thank you. The color of the Linen Quill is Cobalt Blue. Happy knitting 🧶 ❤

[@GreatKnitting]

Looking forward to the Icelandic sweater video!

Lovely

[@anngreen9918]

I look forward to your podcast. Thank you for sharing another lovely (and interesting) episode.

[@theislandlamb]

You are so welcome!

Block island reminds me so much of my beloved Nantucket. No traffic lights, no big box stores, old 17th century cottages and all the flowers. I know exactly what you mean about September as that is the month we usually (not this year 😢) go on island- 80 and beach one day and 60 and grey the next.

[@theislandlamb]

Yes, Nantucket feels like a dig sister. Have a wonderful 4th!!!

[@theislandlamb]

Hi everyone, I made the Everyday Wrap using a single strand of Valley Yarns Mohair Silk in the color way Blue Lagoon

[@allnaturalnutknitting4272]

:)

[@susanbajdek6698]

What happened to La Bien Amie that you bought from The Mermaids Purl in dark blue?. I know you said you were going to make the everyday wrap in it.

[@theislandlamb]

Hi, yes indeed, you are correct. I’m probably going to gift that one and keep the aqua on for myself.

[@ruthyoung7599]

I haven’t been able to find the everyday wrap pattern. Do you have a link to that pattern? It’s beautiful! Thank you!

[@theislandlamb]

Hi Ruth and thanks for watching. If you go into Ravelry and look up The Everyday Wrap by Julie Weisenberger you wil find the free pattern. Have fun and happy knitting 🧶 ❤

[@aimeveryday2966]

I know why you still have that printed pattern: you have learned not to throw them out because you may need it someday! I have learned that the hard way. Haha I love the dress your mom is wearing in that picture. Thank you for your podcast

[@theislandlamb]

You’re absolutely right!!!

[@christinebrown6154]

Really enjoyed your podcast. First time watching & it felt interesting & relaxing. Just subscribed. Thanks from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@theislandlamb]

Hi Christine! I’m so happy you found my channel!!!! Happy knitting. I must get to Scotland one day. 🧶😊

[@butterflysoar1]

Your newest fo in linen quill is so attractive on you. I have some linen quill in that color and now I know what to do with it. Would you tell me what color of yarn you used for that beautiful, light, airy shall you knit? Such a perfect color for the summer. Thank you for sharing the stunning beauty of Block Island in each of your episodes.

[@theislandlamb]

Hi there and thanks. The color of the Southampton Valley Mohair Silk is Blue Lagoon. Happy knitting 🧶 ❤

[@butterflysoar1]

@@theislandlamb Did you use 2 skeins to make it. I am going to make it exactly like you did

[@theislandlamb]

@@butterflysoar1 Hi there, I’ve made this pattern several times with one and with two strands. The one in this episode I used one strand of Southampton. If you use la Bien Aimee you may want to use two strands. I think it’s really a personal preference. Maybe make a small swatch both ways and see what you like best. Have fun!

[@butterflysoar1]

@@theislandlamb I also meant to say how adorable you and your mom looked in the picture from the garden party! What a blessing to have her so close and as far as the picture of her shows, she looks fantastic

[@judygrayson7896]

The Domenico Fragments in your book was a wonderful audible book narrated by the famous actor John Lithgow. He brought this story to life! Your husband and yourself would love it !!! Maybe listen on a car ride or a evening with a glass of wine. Enjoy 😊

[@theislandlamb]

Oh that was an incredible story!!!

[@jillfoster6369]
