When God's people pray

[@betternpopcorn]

To Ruth’s mother. Hope you join Ruth on the podcast. I’d love to meet the woman who raised her. Ruth inspires me to try to be a nicer person each time I watch her. Deborah in Florida

[@dinahdeuel525]

Lovely podcast Ruth. Thanks for sharing your faith with us and encouraging us in our own Christian walk . ❣️

[@celineocallaghan6915]

Loved you as usual Ruth, your Mums shawl is stunning. I always look forward to your message at the end and yes we must give it all to God and trust in him 🙏❤️

[@jamibascom6832]

Thank you Ruth for the bold reminder to pray and for the list of prayer prompts that can guide us as we lift these heart wrenching situations before our sovereign God.

[@conniekuykendall5085]

Thank you, Ruth, for the challenging and Truth-filled thoughts you shared. Yes, we as Believers need to lament and pray for the broken and hurting.

[@bethtingle7516]

Yes! Rip it out if the pattern or yarn doesn’t suit you. That’s the joy and freedom of knitting. And yes, pray without ceasing. God bless you and your family.

[@beverlythompson3246]

Ruth, you have inspired me to knit a shawl! Yours are so beautiful and it would be like wearing a hug. Thank you for your very wise words Ruth. You are so right- those of us living a blessed, peaceful life must pray for those who are in conflict zones. Bless you and your family Ruth.💕

[@maggied57]

The shawl for your mum is lovely. She’s so lucky to have such a loving daughter who also knits!!

[@valeriebishop561]

Well Ruth, Talk about 'knitting in the wild' ...... Just popped the cone on the gear shift and it winds right off.... How absolutely flexible you are!!!!! Brilliant.

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

Game changer 😅😅

[@ksmall2716]

Thank you Ruth for showing me that Shawls can be worn as a 'scraf' as well as over the shoulders. I love all the shawl patterns you share with us.

[@carolbuckley8535]

A joyful watch yet again Ruth you and your lovely shawls brighten up a very dull dismal day. Keep on shining lovely lady ❤

[@stephaniefroelich267]

Ruth, thank you for at least acknowledging the conflict in Israel and Gaza. You are the ONLY Podcaster that I watch who has had the courage to mention it. The others simply ignore the elephant in the room. Yes, we must pray. God’s will be done. Lovely podcast as usual.

[@alisonroose8013]

I think that a good frogging session brings joy. The relief of not having wips glaring at you from various corners of the house! You have inspired me to have a think about my wips too.

[@mariloknitting5927]

Thank you Ruth! To keep and to let go, that is the way to find balance. And thank you for the last words, I have a hard time to find my faith, but your way of aproaching the most dificult questions is heartwarming.

[@shirleycoonce8726]

Ruth, i would love to see your mom AND daughter share their crafts with all of us out here. Your mom must be a hoot to have raised you. I love your happy personality. But my favorite part of the podcast is your spiritual talk at the end. Indeed ALL of us should be on our knees asking God to put and end to this horrible war and wars. Its a tragic loss of innocent babies and people. Its obvious that Satan is roaming this earth wrecking havic. He knows his days are numbered! Thank the Lord!

[@sylviafikiert4825]

Ruth well said prayer is very powerful 🙏 Thank you for sharing all the beautiful items you have been knitting on ❤

[@manuelad1065]

Love the sweater you are wearing it looks so great on you 🤩 I am looking forward to the podcast with Eva and your Mom 🤗 Ruth, thank you for your words in the end. Sometimes I have no words to pray and my heart only can scream Jesus please help 🧡

[@sharond8179]

Your works are beautiful. I agree, if its not floating your boat, rip it out and find another project. Love watching your videos, i look forward to everyone of them.

[@juliehuycke5446]

Hello Ruth, oh my, the Coastland Shawl is the most beautiful one I’ve seen! I enjoy your podcast. Blessings,Julie

[@angelamassey9517]

Thank you Ruth for addressing this most horrifying act playing out in front of our eyes. You did it so gracefully ❤️

[@annevolkman4189]

Ruth, that denim blue shawl is gorgeous! Aren’t bargains such exhilarating finds? I would like to encourage your mother and daughter to join you on the podcast, at some point. It is so inspiring to see how different generations express their fiber art crafts!😊

[@holly4kid]

Great episode Ruth. I plan to knit the Ballyclare shawl soon. Thank you for calling God’s children to pray. It changes everything. God bless.

[@mochacarmellatte]

Yes! Pray! That is the most powerful thing we can do. Your father was so enjoyable to watch I hope your mom would be willing to join you in your podcast too.

[@frankiecoletteobrien1205]

I love your statement on the conflicts around the world. Such heartfelt truth. I am praying!

[@hollysweany4234]

Thank you for your wise words about Gaza. I’ve been praying but sometimes it feels like I could do more. Thank you for reminding me our Glorious Father hears the prayers of ALL His people. What a beautiful shawl. I’d like to knit it for my sister. It would be so fun to see all of your family ❤

[@binarystar11235]

I LOVE the kinross 4ply! I have currently 3 projects going that use that yarn in different colours, and I plan more. It is the only non superwash wool that I can wear next to skin. I always prewash the skeins to maximise the luxurious and comforting feeling not only for wearing but also into the knitting. Well worth the effort.

[@josearle6315]

It would be lovely to meet your Mum and Daughter. I really enjoyed listening to your Dad when he was on xx

[@jeanettek5700]

Yes to your Mum and husband making appearances occasionally! Your shawls are gorgeous. It’s a lovely pattern! Happy knitting from Wisconsin in the US.

[@anitathemer4188]

Your podcast is one of my favorites. Love the enabling! Would love to see your mom and Eva on the podcast. I love knitting shawls!

[@shirleyknits123-7]

I'm amazed at how many shawls that you've knitted, including the Coastline Shawl. 😊

[@klammityj]

Thank you Ruth for your message at the end! ❤ Love all your knitting too.

[@wendybartlett2369]

hello ruth, thank you, it is so good to see there is nothing wrong with ripping out, there are just times when something just doesnt seem right, we spend our pennies on beautiful yarn and sometimes it needs to be re purposed. would love to see your mum and daughter on a podcast.

[@bethpaschal7859]

Love you Ruth! Thank you for your encouragement to pray.

[@lyndabishopp5853]

Always a good morning when I check what’s new on my knitting KZbin Favourites and see your lovely Podcast come up! Love all your knits. I still struggle a bit with socks but have made 15 pairs over 2 years. One day it will get easier! Be great to see more members of your family and hear first hand about their crafting adventures!

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

Well done you. Maybe you should try all the different methods. One might be easier for you.

[@marcellewells7711]

Another joyful episode Ruth, although our colour choices couldn’t be further apart I love the patterns you choose and have bought the hexagon shawl and the Cecile so hopefully will be able to make a start on one of those over Christmas xx Thank you for making me smile yet again xx

[@dianekawagoe2330]

I will have to go back and see your dad on the podcast. I must have missed that one. I’d love to see your mom! The shawls are beautiful! I always enjoy watching. 🤗🧶🤗

[@CozyHermitageCraftRoom]

Your thoughts on the worlds conflicts were spot on. Thank you so much for sharing. Pray without ceasing. Another great podcast. Thank you.

[@janicemcculloch654]

Thank you Ruth, another great podcast. Love that you rip what you don't want to knit 😂

[@aussieirene]

Your podcast is always a tonic Ruth. You have inspired me to become a shawl knitter 😊

[@sharonhines9698]

Thanks for sharing your insight on the middle east crises, profound words. ❤

[@stephaniebenson2501]

What a timely and on point message. Thank you. And, LOVE all your knitting!

[@maryp1224]

Ruth, it is amazing how many beautiful things you are able to do.....your mum's shawl is so pretty, she is going to love it. And your color choice for your sweater is going to be lovely. I know what you mean about how long it takes.....I have had my second half and half on the needles for like two years, the Linen Quill yarn is so thin but so beautiful! LOL

[@lorainelockwood9359]

Fabulous episode. What gorgeous shawls you’ve knit, ripping and to be knit!! Hopefully you can persuade some of your family to join! Thank you for addressing the conflict ❤️

[@frankiecoletteobrien1205]

I love all your shawls! So beautiful! I too love to knit shawls and you are such an inspiration.

[@jillfoster6369]

A message for Ruth’s mummy and Eva……….it would be absolutely super if you would both come on here and share your crafty inspiration and for Eva to give us your crochet update. It is so great when we hear you have enjoyed visiting a woolly shop. Now a message for Ruth ……… thank you for your woolly updates and your end scripture words. ❤

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

I will pass on your message 😆

[@patmorgan8692]

Loved your podcast, Ruth. Your knits (FO's, WIP's) are lovely and good for you to know when it's time to RIP😊. Thanks too for the heads up on the Kinross bleeding. I guess I will have to think about washing the skeins. I love your mug and how so true.....adulting is not for the light of heart! Thanks for sharing.

[@dianecroker6376]

I love your podcast I always get giddy when I get a notification. Everyone is a joy xxx

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

Wow thank you so much x

[@ansomemaid]

Another lovely podcast Ruth, I always look forward to them. The red and black shawl is stunning!

[@annmilleville1983]

Thank you Ruth for this lovely episode, I just discovered your channel and it really is a pleasure to watch! You made me laugh several times and you bring so much inspiration ❤ thank you!

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

So glad you found me x

[@woolandwishes]

That black and red shawl is amazing, love the colourwork. Always a great time spent catching up with you 💕

[@mandyhague6363]

Lots of lovely woolly content as usual. Thanks for your podcast. 👍🧶

[@vickiecrabtree301]

Love your wall art. In fact, I'm right now drinking my coffee from a mug with that same scripture on it.

[@MrsKWheatley]

Love the shawl, Ruth. You always make me smile . 😊

[@angelamassey9517]

Your shawls are absolutely beautiful. You are such an inspiration.

[@laurahorgan7657]

I just love your podcasts. Your projects are so lovely! I would love yo see your Mom and daughter on. Would love to see Eva's crochet.

[@alisonstecksholl7427]

Hi Ruth. Love your podcast. The Coastland Shawl is absolutely beautiful!

[@mindfulmelbournemaker]

Knitting a shawl is quickly becoming my favourite thing - i always have several on my needles at once! The coastland shawl is gorgeous.

[@karaoverman7818]

I would love to meet your mom and whole family. I have several Mindfulness shawls after your recommendations. I listen to Wayne Watson and several of his contemporaries. Wonderful words of wisdom. Prayer first and it is something powerful.

[@suzannefenton1589]

I knit a beautiful shawl for my daughter a few years ago. She put it away for the summer and some Industrious nice decided to use her beautiful Shawl for their home. It was unrepairable. Your shawls are fabulous. I love the inspiration at the end.

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

Such a shame. X

[@patriciahall8733]

You could just say you are sending out a blessing to someone. That should keep that gremlin from inserting itself into you generosity.

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

Oh I like that x

[@bonniereece6738]

Ruth, the Salty Air tee both in color and design is very flattering to you.

[@denisewells6856]

I love that shawl pattern! Thank you for facilitating a pattern giftaway!

[@helenross2389]

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

I just follow the instructions of those with the real ability 🤣

[@pmdempsey9742]

Well done Ruth, an excellent answer to those difficult questions you were asked, much love and many prayers

[@pacrossett]

Love that Coastland shawl! Also the tee you are wearing. I must knit that one. Thanks so much.

[@nancyhughes386]

Love the shawl for your mom! So many great projects! Hope your mom comes on. Try putting the Shhh and mohair projects in the freezer for a few hours before you rip it out.

[@frankiecoletteobrien1205]

You are the boss of your knitting! There are no knitting police! Rip away! Lol

[@renarobertson9831]

As always your knitting is beautiful. Love your podcast. Congrats on the new puppy.

[@Yarn_addict]

I would love to watch you with your Mother and your daughter as well in your videos!

[@patsycoats4061]

I love your mint green sweater, beautiful color.

[@maxx6050]

Excellent podcast Ruth, thank you. 🙏🏽

[@carlafawcett6494]

Bless you for sharing your heart ❤ Love your podcast

[@sewjackyo795]

Another lovely podcast. Socks and shawls seem to be my go to knitting at the moment so would love the pattern gift. ❤

[@yarn714]

Hi Ruth I'm glade I found you love to knit shawls like me thanks keep me inspired 🎉

[@nancywillick5737]

Hi Ruth, your Mom's shawl is beautiful!

[@pip-woollycwtches]

Hi Ruth. I love your top. That is gorgeous and suits you. I feel very similar to you as to the conflict. I’m ignorant to the politics. My heart just bleeds for the suffering. I will never understand how one human can do harm to another. I think praying for peace is something we all can do. 🙏🏻xx

[@nancymorgan5505]

Wow Ruth. Just wow!😵‍💫

[@jessicaolney4900]

Your shawls look great! I love knitting shawls...can never have too many. I always think I can gift them but then I want to keep them for myself...maybe I just need more yarn so that I feel I can gift them (haha).

[@annakatris3583]

Hello Ruth, rip away. Bless you Ruth. 🙏

[@jenniferbarrett3272]

I need to take. A good inventory of lingering WIPS and frog a few. Good for you for repurposing some WIPS. My turn now. I have the Coastland Shawl favourited with yarn in stash. 😊

[@jennifergibson4702]

I love to watch your podcasts Ruth, your shawls are all lovely, I would love to knit the coastland shawl xx

[@NYGram119]

Hi Ruth, Love you and your podcast...and also my pink Glocusent light😊. Would love to meet Mom and Eva!

[@thecraftychemist]

I have no issue with visiting the frog pond! I recently frogged two completed projects that I just wasn't wearing, the yarn deserved better!

[@CuriousPurplePig]

You are such a delight to watch. I'm working on my Friend to Friend cowl/wrap.

[@Gemo790]

Thank you for the nice time with you and my knitting 😂.

[@lisabolliger5855]

Ruth you are such a lovely knitter. I think your mint sweater tee is just beautiful! I would love to try the shawl pattern you showed.

[@terryanderson2685]

I love your shawls that you knit.

[@RoseVuokko]

Beautiful episode! Thanks for all you do! ❤

[@marilynwilliams8369]

I loved hearing about the projects you're going to frog because I am there as well. Just one, but it's completely finished except for binding off the neck ribbing. And like several of yours, it's because I used the wrong yarn for the project. But there's one thing holding me back from ripping. This cardigan has a sewn tubular bind off and simple ripping will not work on that! Oh well. I had just one thought from your final comments and the question of "why does God let this happen?". God has given all of us freedom of choice and thought (what was He thinking?) and so we live in a world that unfortunately is full of people choosing to do awful things. You are right though, when we can't think of anything else to day, we can pray. Thanks for sharing.

[@pennygilbert273]

Hi Ruth, sometimes I am scared to pray as God can be frightening to contemplate and it takes a lot of faith to remember that we can approach Him confidently because of Jesus - I forget this all the time and put off praying, I imagine I am not alone in this ? To Ruth’s mummy and Eva we would love to see you both for a crafty chat ❤

[@joannepenny7213]

Beautiful coastland shawls, such lovely colours

[@brendapoore4873]

I love your thoughts on your knitting. It's yours and you can do what you want. Whether it be casting on or ripping out. There is no knitting police!!!💜

[@sonettevermaak9641]

I love all the shawls you knit❤

[@erinhendrick9689]

Thank you for the message at the end. ❤ hope your mum comes on the podcast! 😄

[@lorishockley3891]

Ruth your podcast is one of my favorites! You crack me up because you’re so down to earth and humble! And of course your knitting is amazing. Please bring on your mom and any of your other family members! Even the dogs! ❤❤

[@kristenrossi6528]

Beautiful knits Ruth, you are such an inspiration to us all. Love your mother's black and red shawl.

[@TheThoughtfulKnitter]

Mabel and Eva: please come on and meet us all! ❤❤ Ruth, it was so lovely to spend time with you and your dad the other week 🥰 Also, I’d happily knit the mohair shawl for you. It’s a beauty and it would be a treat to knit a shawl…I rarely get to, as I don’t wear them x

[@ruthlovestoknitpodcast]

Thank you. A lovely viewer has already offered. Can't believe it.

[@TheThoughtfulKnitter]

@@ruthlovestoknitpodcast aah lovely ☺️ Glad you’ll have your shawl x

[@elsiehughes7130]

Ruth I hope you can talk your mom and Eva into coming on the podcast. I love the shawl so if the random generator picks my name I will be doing a happy dance

[@alicehoyle4198]

Hi Ruth: I come to you from Western Canada. I would LOVE to knit the COASTLINE SHAWL - I have been eyeing it frequently and since you showed us the shawl a few times ago I have been thinking it would be the perfect shawl to knit. Thank you for your podcasts - I always enjoy them.

[@valeriemoorcroft6838]

Oh, your mum will love the shawl. It's absolutely beautiful. I like everything you knit 😂
