Angora Garnet - Ep. 113 - Fruity Knitting

[@juliehorner889]

Does anyone else click the (like) thumbs up 👍before the video starts!? This is the BEST knitting 🧶 podcast! You ladies should be so proud of your wonderful podcast. 🥰

[@dee4174]

I do! The most professional podcast online! Why anyone gives a thumbs down baffles me! ❤

[@andreawilson2251]

Yes!!!!

[@diannbruce9542]

Yes ,I do .

[@davidhensley76]

These podcasts have maintained a very high standard from the very beginning. Congratulations to Andrea (and Andrew), and now to the second generation, Madeleine.

[@melanievanni9072]

You both look rested and beautiful as ever. Your strength, faith and perseverance prevails, but we are sending hugs and uplifting prayers because a broken heart is never viewable and Andrew is next to you always and forever. Here is to new beginnings and continued health and prosperity. Thank you for what you bring to all of us, still, around the world. Your experiences have touched tens of thousands of people and you have given so many comfort and hope in what they might be going through. I had to put down my 'crocheting' (LOL) of my granddaughter's Christening gown to type this to say thank you and wipe a few tears away....

[@suigeneris3909]

Amen to that Melanie 👏🏻

[@brendamorison8671]

Oh my goodness! This could just be one of the best episodes ever. Andrew would be so proud of you both. The finished sweater that Andrew was working on, the sleeves are perfect, the invisible darning of your Marie Wallin sweater, the Wing and a Prayer Farm interview, the continued interview on Bohus Stickning, and those beautiful children on the beach in Australia. I could not be prouder to be a patron.

[@susanhenry9730]

Everyone’s comments reflect my sentiments about this fabulous episode. I just want to add a thought about Andrew’s counting coins story. Andrea, I hope you rewatch segment 10:53-11:17 and watch just Madeleine’s face. This reminds me of the significance of the stories we share about the ones we have loved and lost. I hope you both keep saying Andrew’s name and continue to share more stories with us and with each other. They are gold.

[@leighabresch8143]

I am immediately envious of the lady from Wing and a Prayer Farm. I can see and hear her contentment from dealing with her animals. I listened to her interview two times and there is great content about life in what she says, like her passing comment about diversity. She's the kind of person you hope to be seated next to at a dinner. How interesting she is and so passionate about what she does. I'm inspired to knit with Shetland yarn. I would never know about this woman if it were not for Fruity Knitting. Good job, ladies.

[@bonniemiles7957]

How wonderful to see Andrew's lace garment.

[@dysle4406]

I love Andrew’s gorgeous “butterfly wings” top you are wearing!! It’s simply beautiful on you as well as Madeleine! Thank you for another wonderful episode of Fruity Knitting. You continue to inspire to knit at the very best of our abilities and to live life to its fullest no matter what. Many hugs & my highest admiration.

[@suzannegill9233]

Wonderful comment. I couldn't find the words - so you said it for me. just perfect xxx

[@eL-li3hp]

@@suzannegill9233 Me too. I'm so lost for words with this. I just try to send love.

[@Massepas1]

Poor Fiona🤣🤣🤣but she is right!

[@sherylkrohne3683]

Just want to agree with everything already said. I was blown away by the quality of this episode. The “angel wings” on the sweater are stunningly beautiful. You have to be happy yourself with the way they look, and I hope my name doesn’t stigmatize them, but they are beautiful on you. Madeleine has interesting things to say, and she is so honest and fresh. Thanks so much for her addition on a more regular basis. The shepherdess and the Bohus features were fascinating. And inspiring. Simba has the most resolute knitting style ever! Love to watch her intensity, she looks like a production knitter in training. Keep up the good work, this podcast is special. Thanks!!!

[@sueburrow8786]

Thank you for an uplifting and informative knitting episode. I loved learning about all the different fibres and yarn dyes.

[@miaj5118]

I love your green top that Andrew knitted you. Aww that's such a precious piece of memory work of his for you to wear. Such a blessing x

[@thizizliz]

Oh my Andrea, the sweater Andrew almost finished is so beautiful. You must feel his love every time you wear it and at the same time, know that it looks perfect on either of you. I'm so very glad that Madeleine is still at University! That's great news indeed but yes, that's a full schedule with the podcast and presumable some time with friends too. The stories of the angora and Bohus Stickning is fascinating and I'm so happy to know that there are cruelty free ways to care for and harvest the wool from the animals. Now we know to look for these vendors rather than less careful sources. Oh my goodness, those nieces are SO adorable. It won't be long before both are knitting beautiful garments. That poncho is certainly functional already and I'm certain will last a long time. Wonderful episode. You two make an excellent team. It's nice to have Andrew remain a part of the conversation because in addition to being such a lovely man, he was a core member of the channel.

[@varemar1]

Madeleine is such a beautiful amazing young lady..and there’s sooo much of Andrew in her ❤️ The lace shirt is amazingly beautiful and every time you give so much interesting Information for my knitter heart! I learned so much from you…Love your channel! 🧶♥️🧶 Hug from Italy

[@margaretcronin3376]

Delighted to be able to see you again from Ireland. Love your programme.

[@hannawoods7600]

Madeleine - you are so professional and natural - a wonderful addition to this brilliant show! And I love Andrews heirloom top, it reminds me of intricately crafted doilies, something very vintage but with a definite modern twist - I am sure you will treasure this Andrea, so many lovingly crafted stitches by Andrew. And all your knittery skills are obviously a very strong family gift! A great show - congratulations to you ALL!

[@maryalgar8779]

Thoroughly enjoyed your guest talking about her farm/animals/yarn etc. The colours of her hand-dyed yarn is so beautiful!

[@MsLisaMBrown]

Thank you for featuring Tammy from Wing and a Prayer Farm! I was fortunate to take a natural dye class with Tammy a few years ago and it was so inspiring!

[@judydayes1265]

I had to stop just after the lovely model section of your episode. The simplicity of the tear drop closure was a highlight for me and the sleeves look beautifully done. Love the video so far. Big hugs from Canada!

[@kdgeckoknits274]

Andrew's beautiful knitting is gorgeous on you both. The sleeves look like angel wings.

[@TinaReutin]

The “Easter Egg” video of Simba and her lil’ sister at the beach knitting was so sweet. Simba has obviously some serious knitting skills. Heartwarming to see Andrew’s last bring and brag. What an amazing journey he made from his first hats, scarves, socks, brioche to complicated lace. I loved the Vermont Shepherdess story plus the Bohus Stickning kal - I have my eye on the Rain Cloud jumper, but I honestly have to finish a couple of projects before I start another. Excellent episode, as always!

[@bmwvintageprincess]

YOU DONT KNOW HOW HAPPY I AM TO SEE YOU. THX A LOT

[@davidgarza7568]

Well done ladies! I've been looking everyday for 2 weeks for a new episode. It's wonderful how you keep the memories of Andrew alive by showing his gorgeous knitting and photos. He is a very important part of this podcast. I see a lot of him in Madeline. Remember to breathe and take one day at a time. We are rooting for you both. HUGS! Stephanie Garza

[@qwakcookie]

I love watching your episodes. Both of you always bring a smile to my face.

[@elizabethvallely4044]

WOW Andrew knitting is so beautiful the top you where wearing Andrew done is just amazing and the one for your niece! So good to see you and Madeleine and again Madeleine gloves are really lovely! Love hearing the lady talk about her rabbits and wool seeing her slip the rabbits was very interesting really appreciate it! Your Nieces at the end are so adorable and cute! Thank you for a very interesting video take care stay well and safe God Bless Hugs Liz x

[@salomeelizabeth6026]

Beautiful show...love the children and the beach at the end..just gorgeous! And the Swedish knitwear designs. Thank you for the lovely video. xx

[@breezalicious]

On the contrary, I think your sleeves…that Andrew started and you’ve finished..are PERFECT! The piece is stunning, perfection you as well as Madeleine.

[@IvetaWells]

I agree.

[@corinalymburner1121]

The way Madeleine turns to you, and quickly counters “they do not” when you claim all knitwear looks better on her said so much. You & she are a great team, & I can very well imagine Andrew is cheering & beaming with pride from ‘up above’🥰 I loved both the Shepherdess’ interview & the continuation of the Bohus Stickning story - Pernille’s passion & devotion to this historic category of knitting and learning of her Angora rabbits is somehow so satisfying. I ordered the book & will try to order the yarn before the discount ends… thanks for bringing such high quality, insightful, awesome content to this community👌🏆👍😘

[@suigeneris3909]

… and thank you Corina, for showing people how to use an apostrophe correctly 👍🏻😉😊.

[@acrylicana]

LOVE Madeleine's mittens -- gorgeous color work and they look so cozy! And OMG that blouse is gorgeous! Legit I thought it wasn't hand knit. It looks like a woven, machine made garment. Beautiful work. So lovely to finish Andrew's project and be able to wear it. :) Will forever adore how y'all shared this hobby and made gifts for each other. So special.

[@diannefitzmaurice9813]

What a wonderful episode. I love angora and have raised them for 35 years . I have had all 4 types. This is a fiber truly worth exploring. Angora is 8x warmer than wool and is the warmest fiber on the planet. It was used by astronauts in space because of the warmth. Some types of angora are finer than qiviut. (Satin angora is the finest @ 8 microns wheras qiviut starts at 10 microns) Angora is so wonderful it can alleviate pain. It does this by increasing blood flow that reduces inflammation. This has been known in Europe for eons but is little known elsewhere. Angora blends are very nice but it can easily be spun and used at 100% and then crocheted or woven to overcome some of the difficulties of lacking memory. 100% angora works best for projects like wrist warmers etc to alleviate pain. But it is also beautiful and lasts for years and years.

[@margaritadeverson2098]

What a wonderful episode! Thank you for sharing your nieces- they are absolutely adorable!

[@medusayarnandfiber9013]

Thank you so much for your class and elegance. You are keeping Andrew present in Fruiting Knitting in the most graceful way, and I hope you continue to talk about him in every episode. The nieces at the end are absolutely charming and adorable. xoxo

[@tanyamerchant6799]

Your new top is lovely. Seeing the sleeves modelled by Madeleine, they looked like angel’s wings. Andrew would be so proud to see you wearing it.

[@nadiak9099]

I love the sleeves as they are, just elegant enough for every day wear. Superb work and a great souvenir.

[@alysonrodrigues122]

What a beautiful show in so many ways. Always learn something new.

[@belwynne1386]

So proud of my Swedish heritage. The designs are stunning. Thank you for putting this together.

[@anitaburns3714]

Wow! Simba is REALLY GOOD!

[@BrigitaMencigarJb29m]

She is indeed!

[@estherrubin867]

I’m so happy to see Pernille again. Her dedication to retaining the authenticity of the Bohus designs and colors is so honorable. She definitely has a mutually loving relationship with her rabbits. I just loved both of the episodes with Pernille. Tammy White is also a remarkable person. I’ve bought quite a bit of her yarn and have knitted 2 garments with it so far. It’s fabulous!!! The two cuties at the end are adorable. Thanks to both you and Madeleine for this beautiful episode.

[@suebrown436]

Madeleine is such a terric presenter with you, Andrea, and I am so grateful that you have never given up Fruity Knitting. This was a lovely show, as always, with enthralling content. Your invisible mending was quite amazing!! Much love. Xx

[@karenchassels6011]

Andrea I absolutely love your completed top and I think the lace edging that you selected for the sleeve is perfect! I do prefer it to the original version and I don't mind the scallop look at all. How feminine and how wonderful that you completed this beautiful gift that Andrew was making you! It looks beautiful on both you and Madeleine. Wear and enjoy!

[@marijaorel7299]

I am so glad to see you both. All the other people commenting have taken the words out of my head. Thank you for for another great session.

Wonderful, lovely episode and I like that you continue to reference Andrew, because there are such wonderful memories for all of us, as well as, of course, for you and Madeline. It's nice to have fond warm memories of him.

The Andrew-begun top looks lovely as is.

[@suedale1865]

Yes I always click on thumbs UP 👍 before I watch & comment at the end when I enjoy & impressed Thank you fruity knitting for the diverse podcasts I have only watched a few as came late to your channel thankfully seeing Andrew in them & will be watching back from the beginning What joy to see your Aussie nieces on the beach what a talent for knitting 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Symba or Simba ( however it’s spelt ) I agree with Madeline you look just as beautiful in the garments a wonderful full of love legacy Andrew has made for you to treasure always a hug for you whilst you wearing 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

Lovely to see you both back, all the best from all your fans in Australia 🇦🇺

[@pamelamckenzie2685]

love the colour of what Andrew made for you, bless the rabbits for the wool, we should have a day every year to bless all our animals in what they give to us. Love your video love and light and healing sent to you both.

[@kellipage2858]

Excellent episode! I have wanted to knit a Bohus design for ages! And I have small hands too, so when I knit a beautiful patterned mitten, which is longer than my hands, I knit a liner with an angora wool blend, so my finger tips stay warm. Fiona knits with out looking amazing!

[@linneacarling4490]

A wonderful episode - again. Thank you Andrea and Madeleine ❤️

[@loriflaglor5686]

Simba needs her own feature segment in your episodes! She knits better than lots of adults!

[@NattyKnitterNeet]

Your Bowie looks gorgeous, Andrea and it brought back memories of Andrew knitting it and counting the huge number of stitches with the fine yarn. :) The information on Bohus Stickning is fascinating and very interesting, would love to knit one of their patterns. Simba is very talented, how confidently she knits!! It was a cute segment of the show. Best wishes to both of you to continue giving us more and more fiber related information.

[@CondorsCroft]

So glad you interviewed Wing and a Prayer Farm! Tammy is a truly lovely person! I have visited the farm. It's a beautiful place.

[@faithandknitting3994]

Ladies, this was an absolutely fantastic episode. So much goodness! I loved both of the interviews, meeting both of these women who are so passionate and committed to the work they do and their dedication to producing quality products is very inspiring; and I say the very same goes for you, Andrea and Madeleine. I am so thankful for your wonderful content and the amazing contribution you are making to the knitting community. I pray blessings over you both!

[@AriannaTremayne]

Thank you Andrea and Madeleine for this delightful episode! I loved the lace top Andrew was knitting - it really shows the true purpose of handmade: to wear something a loved one made ♥ I also loved the Australian knitting inspiration from your two nieces! Aren't they uber cute? Thank you so much for this episode! Look forward to the next one ♥

[@MultiKnitter]

Thank you for part II of Bohus Stickning and the Angora rabbits....fascinating information. I love knitting steeped in so much history. And the Easter Egg at the end....glorious indeed! It is so interesting to watch your niece virtually fly through her stitches and she doesn't have to look very often which speaks volumes about the skill she has in her very young hands. You both look equally lovely in the newest finished sweater. Brilliant job ladies! NancyKnot

[@maswannie]

Another superb episode. I was enthralled from beginning to end. The interview with Pernille was fascinating - the history, the rabbits and the beautiful knitwear. Thank you Andrea and Madeline, and Andrew’s spirit, which is with us always.

[@jayshreeshah6245]

Love Andrew's green top, it looks beautiful on Madeleine and you too Andrea. Andrew has knit and left with love in each stitch. It is so beautiful. I actually think the scallop edge looks really lovely.

[@KnittingsAndSewings]

That beautiful top is amazing on both of you. I think the sleeves are just perfect. Very feminine and beautiful. The way that Andrew knit the top of the sleeves with the lace is wonderful and the way that you finished them is just the perfect lace edge. So beautiful and the color is gorgeous on both of you, with your ginger coloring. This blouse is one of the loveliest you have created, and the fact that it was started by Andrew and finished by you is all the more special. This was a great episode. You are going through a hard time, but Andrew would be so happy seeing how you both are handling this podcast together. You are doing a wonderful job. I loved seeing the Shetland farm and the reference to the Heirloom Knitting book. Shetlands are my favorite breed of fleece to spin.

[@TATOTEMPRESS]

Even though I do not knit,I was told I was “cack handed “ as a young girl and have only in the last 2 years learnt to crochet and really love mosaic crochet And plan to do an inspired Bohus stickning jumper . I love watching your Chanel for all the informative yarn / wool inspirational talks, and only wish I never listened to negative influences,,I may well have been able to make one of these beautiful time pieces to wear with a few year of practice ☺️

[@brendasolanki8424]

Every one should buy a pretty dress in Paris! You can see the love in all 25,000plus stitches knit by Andrew. Something to truly cherish. I also think it's fantastic that you can both share this top. Visible mending can be quite gorgeous BUT invisible mending actually appeals to me more so thank you for showing how you've done this. YUP, "Gosh you're clever"! , laughing. Oh how I love that phrase and the story behind it "Oh it is just like in Mother's day." Thank you Madeleine and Andrea for a lovely show with beautiful designs, projects and adorable bunnies. HUgs

[@arctiknitter]

Andrew's sweater is simply gorgeous on both of you! And Madeline has inspired me to try my hand at making some mittens. What a great episode!

[@arlettem.garcia6831]

The lace shirt is so beautiful! What an amazing knitting job Andrew did and it looks beautiful on both of you. Thank you for another great episode, so full of amazing information. ❤️ it.

[@aroundtheworldfibers]

It's wonderful to see the new episode. I love that you finished a gorgeous sweater Andrew started and both you and your daughter looked stunning in it. Absolutely loved the story on Bohus Stickning and especially the Angora rabbits. I had never heard of Bohus Stickning, and honestly, I knew very little about Angora rabbits. As an animal lover, it's wonderful to see someone who truly cares about these beautiful creatures. Oh, and the 'Easter egg' at the end....priceless ❤️

[@denisevettraino7916]

These last two episodes are so Beautiful beyond description ! Thank you both and the Spirit of Andrew in the sharing of Heart and Soul of yourselves, your knitting and inclusiveness into the relevance of why truly we knit ! Bohus Stickning speaks to me from my Grandmother Elsie"s Swedish/Norwegian heritage...it"s time to knit a Bohus jumper of my own !

[@GoldenErnieEddy]

What a lovely episode. And a precious garment as a bring and Bragg. Andrew would probably have said "You look stunning in it, Darls". And that it does. It must have been difficult to Finnish it. Beautiful girls at the end. And a good knitter already. Thank you for this moment of joy.

[@marieariley5011]

A great episode I always love the mee the shepherdess segments and I love the feather like lace you added to Andrews sweater I it better than the pattern. I am going to miss Andrews sense of humour and is scientific additions. I think my mother expressed it best when she said "Andrew was one of thoses people who made the world a better place just by being who he was". Thank you for continuing and Madelaine is doig a fantasitc job at presenting. Love to you both.

[@karincarter235]

What a wonderful episode, dear Andrea and Madelaine! I was happy to see you again! And oh my gosh, I was totally happy to learn about a different side of the angora wool harvest!! I have heard somewhere about the cruel way to do that and never wanted to even think about buying it, - I did not educate myself further and was truly very happy to watch this interview with the footage of snipping the wool. Fantastic! The story about Bohus Stickning is amazing, the designs are beautiful. Andrea, it is wonderful that you finished Andrews jumper, it looks stunning! Best wishes from Mittelfranken , - hugs for you!

[@rawforyou5514]

Just another compilation of inspirational beauty.... Andrea, Madeleine, the knitting and all the information. Lovely to watch, thank you!

[@lindabrush8054]

What an amazing episode! So much wonderful content! With all you have recently gone through it is truly remarkable that you have produced this incredible episode! The ending actually brought tears to my eyes it was so precious! Thank you Andrea and Madeleine from the bottom of my heart. 💕🌷🌼

[@mariliarodrigues7137]

Love your sweater and the butterfly wing sleeves are absolutely gorgeous! Andrew did a really beautiful knitting and you look so lovely in it, as well as Madeleine! Thank both of you for another great episode!

[@JuanaBArtist]

Fascinating segment! Thank you.

[@thezipperlady]

Every time I see a "thumbs down" above, I always wonder why? Fruity Knitting is ALWAYS my happy place! We will always miss Andrew but how one goes forward, with knitting, is what makes us strong.

[@cdncarol]

I think people’s fingers slip when they are trying to do something else, especially on a small device. Or fading vision. I believe NO ONE intentionally gives a thumbs down to these videos.

[@vickibradley8418]

I had been wondering about the Bowie top. I was in awe of Andrew’s beautiful knitting - the lace is stunning but I thought his consistency on the stocking stitch on the body is so beautiful. I’m sure he would love that you have finished it and it looks fabulous on both of you. Thank you for another interesting and informative programme. It’s so good to see you both. Thank you 😊

[@handled-g3u]

I dont like to comment much, but wanted to say how much i love madeline's orange dress (the embroidered one) and the episode and all, now i just noticed how you both wore the same colors for both episodes, colors from andreas favorite design from the episode. That's really cute. Such a vibrant summer combo too, orange and bright green. You both look great, and another great guest for such a hard return. Wishing you continued strength and success. :)

[@sniffingyarn]

Andrea, the Bowie top looks absolutely gorgeous on you, and don't tell yourself otherwise! I agree with everyone else - the lace border you picked is fabulous!

[@kristinm3729]

This episode is fantastic - what a great interview A! Also, I think M has got to go into media at uni because she is a total natural!! Andrea - I know that editing may not have been your part of the production process in the past, but this episode is beautifully edited and Andrew would approve xo

[@wandagallant98]

Merci beaucoup pour ce beau moment from 🇨🇦

[@melaniedunkley3030]

Another great episode. Such a lot to learn and a great window into interesting lives and ways. Madeleine is a perfect companion in the program and it's a great bonus that Andrew is included so naturally into the conversation. Take care.

[@marthafine7310]

This was a very interesting episode.I’m proud that people who make our gorgeous wools and angoras deeply care about their animals and the land. Your nieces make me smile

[@agillsfo]

So very special to see you and Madeleine today!! You are like family to me and I have missed you! Your sweater that Andrew knitted is gorgeous and wear it in his memory and with great pride. Keep Fruity Knitting alive, Andrea, and God bless all your efforts! I’m thrilled to see you again!! Hugs!!

[@sandrabrooke5900]

You two are a beautiful picture to look at and I love the patterns you choose. Your podcast is like going on vacation. I love your green sweater. The sleeves are beautiful and look very lovely on you and your daughter.

[@suigeneris3909]

Your nieces are delightful Andrea! Simba knits with such confidence, it is amazing to see in someone so young 😍. I hope that your sister’s pregnancy progresses smoothly… not a lot of people know that the most common time to have twins is as a result of a third pregnancy in one’s mid-thirties. I know so many people who went for three and ended up with four!!

That's interesting!

[@nwilliams9845]

What a fantastic knitter at the end! Bravo!,

[@jeanneocampo7164]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for publishing another outstanding video knitting magazine. My love of knitting would not be as deep without all the things I’ve learned through Fruity Knitting.

[@scathatch]

Great Program. The Penille Silferberg's storyies and her love of the Angora rabbits and their yarn is such an eyeopener. I had no idea that Angora yarn had such wonderful properties. Inspiring.

[@andreamiller6200]

I am enjoying the two of you together on this episode so very much. It is packed full of so much great information and such beautiful knitting and the smiles of the two of you that fill my heart today. I am so pleased to be a patron of yours on Patreon. P.S. watching further, to hear you were not sure about the edging of the gorgeous sleeves that Andrew knit, I offer that I am totally in love with them and they look magnificent as they are!

[@kathleengerwien845]

I wanted to say Madeline's dress is stunning! It fits her lovely, young figure to a tee! And, the color in it is fantastic! You did a great job on this episode! thank you so much for information regarding Angora bunnies. I did not know that much about them. Also, I love your sleeve repair. I need to repair a blanket I knit a few years ago of 12 squares of different cable stitches. I think I knit it too loosely, and, did not anticipate our cat would love to pull at it. I am inspired by your repair work! I continue to keep both of you in my heart and prayers. I know the pain of losing a father at an early age (for Madeline and Andrew, both at early ages) as I experienced the same. I don't know the loss of loving the love of my life that Andrea has experienced, yet I watched my mom go through that loss. It is a terrific pain. You, both, will find light eventually, but emphasis is on the eventually.

[@jacqueevelyn6411]

It is lovely to see you both. Andrea I love the simple edging of your Top, Andrew made for you :) i normally would not like a top with arms designed like that but I love it and think it looks beautiful on you . Thank You Tammy :) for telling us about your farm :). I am crying at how beautiful the Bohus Stickning interview is, i love rabbit's and this is beautiful to see. Thank you Pernila :) Your Niece is a beautiful knitter and I love the little one copying her sister.

[@theweatherisaokay4964]

Mother and daughter looked like twins, but then Andrew also look alike. Love to see you ladies again and love your contents each and every time. 🥰

[@carolheverin8814]

Absolutely stunning sweater. I think the scalloped edge you chose is perfect. It’s such a delicate and feminine garment. Really wonderful. Love Madeleine’s mittens. Love the interviews. So enjoy your videos. 🥰

[@carolbotha2385]

Madeline you can’t go wrong with such an excellent teach at hand.

[@valeriedimilia6902]

The lace sleeves are glorious!! I love them and think they are extra special because there is no other top like it in the whole world. Sending love and appreciation, Valerie

[@veronicastephens8501]

So Many things I want to say about this wonderful episode. Love the mittens keep them from the Dragon Fevered Mom. The finished work of Andrews is stunning. I love the scalloped lace boarder you chose and I think it looks beautiful on both of you. Andrew I am sure is loving that he can put his arms around, each of you, when you put it on. I am sure it must feel like his love is all around, but a personal hug when you wear it. I so enjoyed the first interview, I am a little ashamed to say I live in the Boston area and had never heard of Wing & A Prayer farm. But I will be heading over to the website shortly. The second interview was as they say enlightening. Beautiful history and passion for authenticity combined with sustainability and respect for the animals and the artist make this a true success story. Thank you both for being so generous and giving of yourselves. I am not at all a competent knitter but you encourage me always.

[@angelajenkins3952]

What a treasure to have the top that Andrew knit for you. Like an Andrew hug whenever you wear it. Andrea, I agree with Madeleine...you are extremely clever to do that mending without the chart! Simba is amazing with her knitting! I can't believe how young she is. Thanks for a wonderful episode!

[@halfdeeve1]

Maybe I'm an old lady, but I think the scalloped lace edge of the piece Andrew made looks lovely.

[@nikigallacher6202]

The whole episode is brilliant as usual, and the children at the end are just gorgeous and delightful girls!!! Thank you

[@joanallen20]

Thank you for such a lovely interview. It is wonderful to hear about the history of the yarn company and loved the ending with her children on the beach. The Wing and a Prayer interview really touched. me with her dedication to her farm and the natural life. Your episodes always being me joy.
