Hi, I'm Dana from Poland. I found you podcast few days ago, and I started to watch it from beginning. I was born in komunist time. That time my mum knitted and sewed for me and my sister everthing, because in our shops cloths was very bad quality and ugly. Knitting and crocheting tradition was quite strong. When comunisme collapsed, we could buy all what we needed and we didn't want to knit and sew anymore. After another years we realized, that all clothes in the shops look the same and we started to creat our own designs from wool, textile. We started to build knitting community. Now we have a lot of very talented young girls and sometimes boys, who loves yarn, who design fantastic projects.Of course we don't have to many nice shops with yarn. On line we can buy all kind great quality yarn, but in small town this is a big problem. People don't have to much money and they prefer to buy the cheapest yarn, they don't think about quality. But luckily new, young generetion think totally different. They want to knit from the best yarn. Greetings now from Malaysia.

[@gingersutton7418]

I have been enjoying watching your video. They are always so interesting and you are a relaxing companion while I knit. Thank you for sharing so many Danish yarn producers!!

[@robinjohnston5909]

Hello. I caught your show by accident, I think, and I really enjoyed it. Number five was the first episode I saw and I am about to watch six. I liked your stories of how it is to grow up in Denmark and your observations about your visit to Poland. I am from Canada so it is extremely interesting to hear about other countries and cultures. If you do learn if there is a Polish knitting tradition, I hope you will talk about it on your podcast. I hope they have one or a resurgence of a sort. Keep on doing what you do: I don’t have a lot of free time but I think that listening to you in the time I have is time well spent.

[@eileensavory4925]

Hi. Have just found your podcast. It was lovely and I was very interested in hearing about Danish yarns. I'm a spinner in the uk but have been knitting since I was 3 years old which is nearly 60 years. Omg can't believe I am that age. Since learning to spin 4 years ago I have learnt so much about yarn that I almost feel that I knew nothing before. It is wonderful to see young people like you bringing knitting to new generations and teaching us older folk so many new things. Well done. I can't wait to watch more. Xx

[@FiberTales]

So happy you like it! I'm often thinking that I should go find some older people where i live to ask them about knitting and so on (as my grandmothers have both died). I think that we could learn so much from the different generations and that a lot of info is lost (such a pity!!) I will have to take up knitting some day but for now i just want to spend all my time knitting ;)

[@Carols_BooksandFibers]

Such a lovely podcast. Thank you for taking the time to share your knitting life and yourself. I think it is so amazing being able to sit at the table and knit while listening to another knitter half way around the world or less! We are indeed very fortunate that we can use technology in such a meaningful way. Looking forward to your next episode.

[@FiberTales]

It is one of the big reasons i do this podcast! I love the way it let us connect while enjoying our craft ❤️

[@Knittingilove]

Hi so much fun listening about your trip in Poland and your yarn shop experience. I’m a Polish who lives in Ireland but here there are also areas that may not be safe either. I hope to say hi to you in EYF - Martin’s Lab he is a Polish dyer

[@aliiljah8224]

Oh my gosh, that Birkin Sweater is beautiful. No one is going to see any mistake that you MIGHT make. So, shhhhhhh. Don't say anything, no one will see them. As I said, it is absolutely beautiful, I wish I could knit like that.

[@zsuzsannabeard7840]

I just finished binge watching all five of your podcasts - what a pleasure! I loved it that you talked about life on a sheep farm, your trip to Poland - in addition to your works in progress and yarns. Enjoy Edinborough!

[@cassandra3399]

I’m doing counted cross stitch but I am a knitter and am getting back to that to finish several sweaters. I lust after the yarns you get in Europe since I’m in the USA. Thank you.

[@ktmonchoux]

Hello from Wisconsin in the US, I just found your podcast and listened to episode 5. It was very enjoyable, and your tales of Poland were quite interesting! I look forward to watching your other episodes, thanks!

[@FiberTales]

Hi Katie! Thank you so much ❤️

[@Dailywhatnots]

Hi from Chicago. You are fortunate to come from such a rich knitting heritage.

[@louisemurphy8654]

I just found you by accident, and what a joy it has been too. It has been a long time since Iast knitted and late last year I picked up my needles once again. It is my new pleasure to knit while watching podcasts. Your podcast is so interesting and your gental conversation easy to knit to. I appreciate the things you're sharing with us, however weird it might be chatting away to your phone. Sitting here in my little house in the country, on an island at the bottom of the world, you're keeping me company while I knit. Thank you xx

[@kathyn3875]

Thank you for providing these podcasts. You keep me company while I am knitting monotonous projects. 😀. I also appreciate seeing the pics from your travels and the area in which you live!

[@faithlinkministries]

Hello Laerke thank you for your podcast it is delightful, fresh and interesting. Love your colours in your Birkin sweater. Bless you, from Jen

[@angelkrisy]

Even if in a scary part of the city, Poland looked beautiful!

[@susanmaguire3792]

I have watched at least a dozen of your podcasts! I'm hooked! You are lovely. I am a math teacher in Rhode Island, USA and love hearing your thoughts on yarn. Your preferences to certain yarns and colors have been very enlightening to me. I started knitting 5 years ago to keep myself occupied after a major surgery. I have been hooked ever since. What started out as a pastime is now a love. My taste in yarn graduated very quickly in the last 4 years. Recently I have loved working on Skeindeer knits mittens and many traditional type color work patterns. I love the traditional patterns and the new as well. Thank you for taking the time to educate and enlighten us all about a different culture and natural fiber wools as well. Best Wishes.

[@denisec9187]

This is my first time watching you. Beautiful work and you are sweet. I am going to watch your back episodes. Thank you

[@Gigiknittingandmore]

Hi I’m brigette from Illinois in The USA. I’ve been watching your podcast love it. You seam like a very lovely young lady. Love the pictures of Poland.

[@ann-catrinjonsson5370]

A lovely podcast and a lovely company while knitting. Thank You!

[@kimwachter2493]

I’v recently come across your podcast videos. Im starting with your first video and binging my way through them. Love your content. 😊

[@pattylabadie954]

I LOVED YOUR PODCAST!!!😃💕 Your colorwork sweater is stunning!!!! I want to make one too!! Thank you for sharing your projects and your time!!😍

[@FiberTales]

Thank you so much Patty ❤️

[@Mary-ck2zl]

Hello from Western New York-my home is a short walk from Lake Ontario. Your beautiful Birkin drew me to your site, and your visit to Poland made be stay and watch. My great grandparents immigrated from Poznan so it was very interesting to see the town! Also, my Polish grandmother was an expert knitter and she used the most inexpensive acrylic yarn possible because she couldn't afford the finer wool. At least no one could ruin the acrylic knits in the laundry!

[@FiberTales]

Hi Mary Ellen! I’m in poznan now and just thought about your comment! It’s a lovely city in the spring! 🙈

[@mariaas9731]

Oh, blimey! So you are in Denmark with your Polish partner and I'm here in Poland (Krakow) with my Danish partner 😅 And I was also raised at a sheep farm (Tatra Mountains). I don't know when your bf left Poland but i have never been robed in my life and I've lived here for 46 years 😉 We do have knitting tradition and a big knitting community, but we hardly produce any fibers here. Most of it is imported, so you can get it anywhere in Europe. The wool from the Tatra mountains sheep is a bit rough, personally I like it, but it makes most people feel itchy. After the fall of the iron curtain all the local wool production died out because the market was flooded with imported fibers. There are people who try to restore the wool industry (you can check Gabowool for instance) but we are far behind Scandinavian countries in this regard. Anyway, there are knitters in Poland and some very well-stocked shops but mostly online. :)

[@KnittedWishes]

Hello from Vancouver, Canada :) I just subscribed to your lovely podcast. I was born in Poznan and I occasionally go back to visit family. My mom taught me to knit when I was a child but no one else in my family knits. I've been to both of the yarn shops in Poznan (a few years ago) and I was also a bit disappointed to find so much acrylic yarn, very few rustic and natural yarns and no locally produced wool. So far, the best yarn shop I found was located in Warsaw. Hopefully, with many new Polish designers creating patterns and more young people becoming interested in knitting, the situation will change.

[@lynncharlesworth8561]

I was encouraged to watch your podcasts from Knitting Traditions podcast recommendation. I have started from Episode One. I very much look forward to see how your life as a knitwear designer unfolds. I don't know what number Podcast you are up to now but I have someway to go to catch up. Its going to be a lovely journey to follow, I can see. I am from UK and living on south coast of Australia. Your world is so different and enriches my life because it is so. Thank you.

[@ullafredriksson745]

A very good idea wearing it like you do.That's also so good for the environment and for the economy.Real good wool is worth a lot.

[@nolamcneely7857]

Your podcast is just lovely!! Calm and relaxing...inspiring and interesting. I'm from Tennessee, USA. Thank you for sharing your time with us!

[@FiberTales]

Thank you for the sweet words and thanks for watching ❤️

[@FranziskaWelke]

Thank you so much for this episode! I honestly enjoyed the calm atmosphere so much that I immediately subscribed. Your love for rustic yarns and the interest in keeping the heritage of knitting alive really captured me. As a German I always wonder why we don't have such a strong tradition of knitting here. The winters are cold but people still don't knit that much. Actually often I'm not very open about my strong affection for fiber and knitting because people use to make fun of it and call it an activity for grandmas. So I was very interested to hear about how knitting is received in other countries. Thanks again!

[@FiberTales]

Thank you for the kind words 🤗 I used (still do sometimes) to feel the same way about knitting! I have discovered that people started to take it more seriously as i started to knit less crazy colorfull stuff as i did when i was younger (not that there is anything wrong with that). I guess they understand what looks store bought better. Oh and knitting for babies is generally more understood. I think you just have to look confident about it and people will shut up 💕

[@lisacotter6227]

Thank you for sharing your knitting life though your podcast. I really enjoy listening to you and sharing your experiences with us!❤️

[@FiberTales]

Thank you for the kind words and watching ❤️

[@patriciadouglass7141]

I absolutely love all your podcasts. I am slowly going through them as I just found you a month or so ago. I believe Anastasia from Free Your Sheep had mentioned you! It is always so calming to listen to you talk about rustic yarns and your designs both current and future! I am inspired by all that you create and hope to learn as much as I can about the different yarns and where they come from! Thank you for taking the time to bring such wonderful content to us all! I appreciate you! Blessings!

[@mandypursifull621]

Thank you! You have a very lovely and enjoyable podcast. It is calming and relaxing ❤️

[@sylvienguyen3361]

Appreciate the information regarding Danish yarns. The yarn from your family sheep is amazingly beautiful.

[@sallymalnar4625]

I really like that you take the time and give us such depth in your stories about your travels and yarn purchases.Vvery interesting podcast!

[@marthegottsche2371]

I'm so happy I found your podcast. It is always such a joy to watch and very inspiring.

[@FiberTales]

Ohh that makes me so happy to hear ❤️ thank you!

[@sobat7402]

I love your podcast. I totally agree about the books you showed. My compliments on your choice of colours for the Birkin sweater!

[@theknittingburrow]

I know it's an old video and maybe it doesn't make a lot of sense leaving a comment here :D but I just wanted to say that it's both lovely and very interesting to hear you talking about your childhood in the farm and your vision of the link between animals and humans and how to treat the animals. It's very well said, I couldn't agree more. It's refreshing to hear that, I grew up in the countryside too and I really feel the same. Thank you for your honesty and for sharing this with us! :) Take care!!

[@CeeCeeCrafts]

Hello from Connecticut in the US. I found your podcast this morning & I will be returning to your channel. Thank you.

[@CreativeMoJoPodcast]

I just started watching your podcast and it’s so lovely. Your designs are stunning and I’m enjoying learning more about Denmark and Danish yarns.

[@sabrinataljaard]

Thank you so much for doing these. I'm catching up on all your episodes and am hooked. I really enjoy the topics you talk about and learning about Denmark

[@arianeknits]

Wow so I have to thank you because that's the most amazing coincidence ever, I didn't know about Urso yarns and when I looked at her shop, I realized her studio is less than 5 minutes away from where I live. It's really crazy that you're so far away and that you're the one connecting me to her, how amazing!!! I love your podcast and I'm so happy that I still have so many episodes to watch :) I hope you're doing well! Can't wait to visit your beautiful country one day :)

[@teolois]

Hi from Singapore! First time viewer of your podcast and it's interesting to hear about your opinions on yarns and such. I learned how to knit over 20 years ago but only started seriously a year ago. We dont produce yarns in Singapore and so they are imported and mostly acrylic. I purchased mine online from everywhere :) My challenge this year will be to make wearable in cotton/silk for the all year summer weather here :) And I love your Birkin sweater ! Hope to see more of you!

[@cynthiamcdonald774]

Hello from Michigan in the U.S. I knitted through your podcast and it was so relaxing to hear your lovely Danish accent as I worked on my sock. I look forward to the next.

[@BettySusanne]

I have recently discovered your podcast through your vlogmas that I am enjoying. I have started at the beginning and watching all your podcasts to catch up. I just wanted to say thank you for keeping me company. 💚

[@FiberTales]

Thank hou for watching 🤗

[@AWoodenNest]

I noticed the reverse stockinette immediately. So cozy. And your Birkin colors are a favorite of the ones I've seen.

[@FiberTales]

I’m a bit obsessed with reverse stockinette atm ✨

[@AHomespunHouse]

I really love the way your pullover looks inside out ! When I was younger, I wore all of my pullovers this way ! I enjoyed spending time with you today :) Your stories while in Poland were lovely

[@FiberTales]

Thank you!! I often watch your podcast and enjoy it so much! The way you have build up a homespun house is such an inspiration ❤️

[@amyreed8579]

Thank you so much for your lovely podcast. Your yarn choices are beautiful and have inspired me to knit with more natural yarns. I look forward to your next! Have fun at EYF!

[@FiberTales]

So happy to inspire you to use more natural yarns, hope they will make you as happy as they do me ❤️

[@guylainericard9670]

Hello from Québec! I’ve discovered your podcast just recently and I love it so much! You are so lovely and sweet and things you knit and design are beautiful! I like how you talk about your country, your life, your work. Thank you for these sweet moments with you! ❤️🧶❤️

Hello from BC, Canada! (West Coast of BC), and I just discovered your podcast recently through Knitting Traditions. I'm watching in chronolgical order, so eventually I'll be up to date!

[@marlenecornelis5121]

A friend told me about your podcast today, and so this is the first episode that I’ve watched. I enjoyed it very much and look forward to seeing more. I liked what you said about the importance of leaving comments - I am not a podcaster but I do write a food blog and know how much I appreciate people‘s feedback. Cheers, from Canada.

[@ynotknit]

beautiful knitting I love your Birkin the colors are perfect. I enjoyed learning about Danish yarns and about Poland. I look forward to seeing your upcoming knitting.

[@FiberTales]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@sigmoide672]

Beautiful podcast, thank you!

[@judykaplan-levitt366]

Lovely to listen to you speak...soft and sweet accented English. Happened to find you after I watched a podcast from Stranded Dyeworks in the UK ( who would not be described as relaxed)! I’m live in Boston, Massachusetts and have been knitting since I was 9. Love to learn about different countries’ knitting cultures and you did a great job telling us about Denmark and Poland.

[@FiberTales]

Thank you for the sweet words! I’m glad you find my accent sweet hehehe i was afraid people would find it annoying

[@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS]

So lovely to find your podcast. I enjoyed this episode thoroughly and am looking forward to watching more. ❤️

[@karimcnair9890]

Hello! Greetings from western Canada. I'm not someone who usually comments, but I'm loving your podcast. And how lovely to be introduced to a Canadian yarn dyer who's new to me.

[@FiberTales]

So nice of you to leave a comment

[@rachelleandrichard]

I'm so glad I found you. Great content!!! I loved the story about your trip to Poland and your experience there. I like the way you had photos and film to add to your podcast. It was all very interesting. I liked how you talked about your knitting projects, the issues you had with your colourwork, the mindful way you think about and use yarn, and it is all very positive and genuine. I've definitely subscribed. I can't wait to see what you do with your skein of genuine Danish wool you've ordered. Thank you for your hard work and time given to your channel. I could listen to you all day and night. Going to watch your other uploads now. Sending warm regards from Australia 😊

[@DoYouHaveSnazzyPants]

Hello from Maryland! It was lovely having a nice sit and chat with you. It made frogging this colorwork sweater I made (was a test knit that unfortunately did not fit at all) much easier. I've been thoroughly enjoying your podcast! Can't wait to watch more episodes. Thanks for keeping me company during virus isolation :)

[@woolenbluebird]

Your sweater is lovely. I'm sure it will block out fine. I enjoy your podcast. I have a lot of danish ancestry and find that element fascinating. Thanks for sharing your lovely work.

[@FiberTales]

Thank you so much! I cant wait to wash and block it! Almost done! ❤️

[@irmaheizenberg3128]

Hello from the Netherlands, thank you for this inspiring podcast, I enjoyed it very much. I Like the sweater you are wearing, your mother did a good job! And the sweater you are knitting is a beauty, I love it!

[@MrsBtheKnitter]

I discovered your podcast via this video and wanted to say how much I enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing!

[@FiberTales]

Thank you for the sweet words 💕

[@yarnflakes]

I found what you said about your experience of Poland and knitting very interesting ! My boyfriend is Romanian and I have the same impression. I couldn't actually find any yarn shop in the rather big cities we went to. Sewing seems a bit more spread but it's more practical and people will buy fabric to bring it to a tailor and not necessarily be making their own garments. I know they have a strong rug making and embroidery heritage. I've seen a bit of crochet too but knitting seems invisible ! It gets very cold in the winters there too and they have so many shepherds with their sheep flocks... Ah, pity like you said !

[@FiberTales]

Yea! I guess it’s more hidden because judging from the comments there are many polish knitters. Probably the same in Romania?

[@yarnflakes]

Fiber Tales I hope so ! I found one on Ravelry ah ah !

[@natural.i.s.t.a]

Hi! I'm a Romanian knitter and crocheter and I agree with your comment. Actually the knitting tradition in our country was very strong before the fall of communism, almost every woman knew how to knit and knitting was taught in schools. Unfortunately after the communist era, the wool industry almost disappeared, fewer and fewer people continued knitting because now they could find already knitted garments in stores... producing yarn has become very expensive (the corruption that came with our kind of ''democracy'' is responsible for destroying all kinds of traditional and successful industries in our country) and shepherds prefer burning the wool or selling it to foreigners. I was actually born after the communist times and I don't understand why people stopped knitting as a hobby... it's like they wanted to forget the bad times and together with that all the goodness of handcrafting... It's true that there aren't many yarn shops, and if you find one, it's mainly acrylic yarn that you can buy. However, some indie dyers started to appear and I can feel a wind of change. I wish you all the best! You can find me on instagram, I'd like yo make friends with all of you interested in knitting and crochet. instagram.com/thenomadknitter/

[@yarnflakes]

Stefania Dragomirescu oh it's so amazing to hear from you ! Very happy to have your input on this and I'm going to check your instagram :)

[@FiberTales]

It’s interesting how in some countries the tradition is strong and in others disappearing! Hopefully the interest will come back and not all will be lost 🤗

[@FiberTales]

Thank you for your sweet comment ❤️

[@catalinacatoi653]

Hello again! It is my second comment today , as I just discovered your podcast. You are so right , I am indeed watching for free your podcast made in your spare time while I am cooking and I'm glancing at the screen from time to time whenever you were showing new skeins of yarn or new projects.Thank you for doing this! It is a pleasure to get inspired by young ladies like yourself. I do dream I will have one day a daughter in law like you. I watched 4 episodes in a row, while laying in my bed sick and then later as I got better. I see a progress and how you are more confident talking alone with the phone ( lol..you said it and it was funny) but I think it is very difficult to show new things once a week since this is a craft that takes time . How many projects can one start from a week to another? Here I am working on a sock for the past two weeks after I made a mistake and had to undo a few days worth of work. Any knitted object it's priceless since it takes so long to finish. I love every single sock I make with their imperfections and since I live in such a warm region ( South Texas) I appreciate when winter comes with a little cool air and I can wear the socks I make. I live such long comments because I see you are asking for them and enjoy reading. By now with so many subscribers you might be overwhelmed :)) Cheers! Catalina

[@katlady1019]

Enjoyed learning about Danish yarn and loved seeing your projects! Glad I found you!

Oh wow, sorry to be writing again but I have just noticed that the branch in the glass jar behind you is Cineraria and the leaves are used to dye yarn, silk and paper. It's awesome and gives beautiful oranges and reds.

Thank you so much for making this podcast. I enjoyed seeing all of the different yarns. I'm in a smallish city in the US, and we have plenty of acrylic yarn, but have to travel some distance to find nice hand dyed natural fiber yarns.

❤️ i hope you manage to find some nice yarn but if not the internet is your friend... or enemy hehe

[@TheCheerfulAbode0610]

Hi! I’m an American living in Warsaw, Poland (my husband has dual citizenship and we figured why not try something new). I’m from Florida originally, and had no need to knit there. Surprisingly we had more specialty yarn stores in Florida than here in Poland. I have found a lot of those little yarn shops with acrylic yarn, but I prefer wool. I finally found one in Blue City Mall called AmiQs. They sell Brooklyn Tweed, Malabrigo, Chiaogoo, Addi, Hiya Hiya. I was so happy to find this place! But it’s the only one I’ve found so far.

[@FiberTales]

It feels so good to find a nice shop! Luckily there is must yarn available from european online shops! ❤️

[@ThePattiw]

Great podcast. I saw this suggested episode in my feed and noticed that you were knitting the Birkin. I just started it as a KAL with a group in my local knit shop. Love your colours, and interestingly, many in my group, including myself decided to skip the bobbles. I decided to, as you did, not to leave the one stitch of main yarn in the small pink flower. Looking forward to watching your other podcasts.

Hi, I’m from Central Florida, I’m quite cold as it is in the 40’s right now. My favorite temp is in the 80’s, and anything under 75 is sweater weather. I’m a chicken as you can tell. I really enjoy your podcast. Thank you!

Thank you! ❤️ Haha 75 degrees is decent summer weather for me!

I really enjoyed your podcast, its a new for me and I like it. Happy knitting ! Yarn from Denmark is not really accessible in Texas, shipping is expensive, hopefully it will change in the future. happy knitting!

This was my first time watching your podcast and I loved it! Can't wait to watch the other episodes and cast on a Birkin sweater in the future (it's already on my "to knit" list)! Thank you
