Grocery Girls Episode 10

[@KimClinger]

Rewatching because it’s fun to see how far you’ve both come. And so many of your knits still inspire me. By your 10th episode you had 2400 viewers. And you probably had no idea what a force you would become. ❤

[@debbiehyde2144]

i knit and crochet, i just finished 2 projects, one knit and one crochet that i had going at the same time they are both for a new baby girl, one for now and one for when she is just a bit older. loved doing both. xxx

[@iciclewrin]

I sooo look forward to your podcasts each week! I don't have local knitting buddies so every week I kick back with my knitting and enjoy a little virtual knit group with you two. Thank you ladies for another fun, authentic, and truly enjoyable 'cast.

[@linahsdesignRita]

+iciclewrin I do the same thing :)

[@nathaliepenar7908]

Crochet is pretty easy to learn, esp with KZbin tutorials from Jaydainstitches, Bag-O-Day and Fiber flux they are so patient and show up close and describe every step. I had never touched a hook and in Dec I watched a few videos and by xmas I made 17 scarves and team colored placemats and footballs for presents. I'm now on to beanies and granny squares for charitable donations. Also star blankets and amigurumi. Give it a try. I want to try knitting but it seems much harder but I'll get there with the help of great tutorials.

[@angelabanks9726]

Your wonderful bright light to a dull week. Cant wait tell the next week. So refreshing to see family getting along now..Bless you both.

[@melatina66]

I taught myself to crochet and knit from books from the library way before the internet was a thing. I feel it would be so much easier for me now because of KZbin. I have learned lots of different stitches from KZbin.

[@margarethiggins4381]

A little late to the party but I'm so happy that I found the two of you. You brighten my day. Had to go right back to the beginning and start at the first episode. Might take a while to get to your current episodes but I don't want to miss a thing. Keep up the wonderful work!

[@Rowdysrun]

Love your podcast!! I knit and crochet and love both for different reasons. Unfortunately .......I am also addicted to cross stitch, quilting, bag making, needlepoint..........😍....endless obsessions!!! Lol! Can't wait for the sock KAL!!! Thanks for YOU!

[@teresaalber4273]

Love the inclusion of crochet. I am a crocheter trying to learn knitting. I would love to see a crochet topic on the GG Rav group. Teresa

[@rebeccalyn5085]

Thanks for sharing ... you girls are awesome!I love knitting on the beach ... I was in Jamaica over New Year's and knit everyday. My guy likes to sleep in where as I get up at 6am. I had 3 hours of sitting on a lounger with my tea and knitting listening to the waves before he got up ... it was amazing! I also have to say I just bought a skein of Toronto Maple Leafs a few days ago. The shipping was a lot but I had to get it. I can't wait for the package to arrive.

[@traciemillar]

Beach knitting is heavenly! I'm so excited for you to receive your Hat Trick yarn!! Yay!!

[@DixieGirl9876]

Love 'visiting' with you girls. Fab podcast! Lovely projects, cute chick. I did my girls some crochet chick in eggs one year too. Give me a hammock by the water and some wool and I'm a happy camper! Can't wait to see the market bags!

[@gillian4033]

I've had to pause watching just to say - if you get to the point that you are really...really tired of Addi sock rockets cord getting you into a fankle ... try CiaoGoo needles - I was a HUGE fan of Addi's... loved them... until my cord started to become a total pain - worse than wrangling a water hose... I've recently purchased and used the firmer CiaGoo fixed circulars (lace, red cord) ...which some find too firm but I'm loving them... the needles have a smidge more drag than the Addi's... not so much...but enough that they work with really slippery yarn too... and less drag than Karbonz...I know, everyone is different with needles so it's just a suggestion, just incase! Gillian / BermyKnit

[@Crochetedpossum]

Tracy! That lace on your shawl is so awesome!!!!!!

[@traciemillar]

+Melanie D Thanks for the support, Mel! Im kind of proud of myself for toughing it out on something thats not my comfort zone.

[@mypinkdragon1500]

Omg you lady’s are just so amazing!! I’ve been binge watching for 3 days now. Your encouragement and tips and tricks are going in my #knittoolbox. So with tour encouragement I have re cast the Lollipop Sock by twin Stitches Design. This is my first non vanilla sock which is nice because most of the singular socks (second sock syndrome) The Rose City Rollers have been my go to with switching up the cuff with knit and purl and twisted knit and pearl.

[@heyBrownBerry]

There's something really fun about watching the episode on the day it was published. Like being closer to the production. Hello ladies!! Wishing you a great week and thank you for another fun "gathering". :)

[@traciemillar]

Hello right back atcha! 🙋 I hope your week is excellent too! 👋👋

[@Rizzaknits]

I'm so glad I finally got a chance to watch your show. I really enjoyed it and will be back again! I so wish I had time to go back and play catch up. But at least I can jump in from here. Hello from Michigan!

[@kikijames7612]

Thank you again my fellow Canadian gurls! Loved spending this time with you today. I was soooo surprised to see another one up already after 9! Congrats on double digit!!! Happy knitting, have a blessed week! luv Kirsten

[@eroff4721]

Tracie, my saving grace for lace is to place markers between sections. So with the one you are knitting I would place a marker every three chevron. That way I can tell if I made mistake. It also gives me a pattern to memorize.

[@traciemillar]

That's an excellent tip!! I'll keep it in mind for my next lace project 👌👌

[@clotheslinecraftscaroline2446]

Love you girls. I have just picked out my yarns for Pure Joy. I don't knit socks but enjoy seeing yours.

[@MilkshedBlogKnitting]

It's never too soon to film again! Great to see you, ladies!

[@Curlpro]

Bwaahaaaa astigmatism lol you mean STIGMA not an eyesight problem. I'm peeing my bed I'm laughing so hard. Plus I love Crochet too. I love you two.

[@jessdavis8366]

Waiting for #11. Can't wait. You ladies are my new favorite podcast. You are my knitty friends.

[@cindyorton199]

Who could possibly give Yall "thumbs down"???? They obviously don't know a great podcast when they see one! Another great show ladies!

[@traciemillar]

I hate admitting that those thumbs down used to bother me....but a big fat WHATEVER! Can't be everyone's cup of tea. 😊

[@cmmatsko]

oh my goodness!! I died laughing! "do you have nubs at the end of your legs?" hilarious!

[@traciemillar]

Only a sister would ask....right?? 😂

[@liannegafa8492]

Love your podcast. I also ordered charms from Bohemian Findings! She has so many options. And thanks ladies for introducing me to Hat Trick Yarns. My husband and our 5 kiddos are huge Montreal Canadiens fans (even though we live in Vancouver, shhh), so I will be buying a few skeins of that. Looking forward to your next podcast!

[@pambonifacio8745]

[@HandmadebyLorelei]

Not sure the pronunciation of chalcedony either LOL ....but I can tell you it's a semi precious stone and you can typically find it in that periwinkle,and gold colors. The colors in the yarn are Spot On!!! Very pretty.

[@traciemillar]

+Lorelei Euro Well thats so interesting...I can't even tell you how much I love this Adam & Eve yarn! All of the colors are amazing!

[@nathaliepenar7908]

Ok just noticed some thumbs down... ridiculous how people could give that is beyond me. Your podcast are the best.

I may or may not have ordered a bunch of yarn ink minis while watching your last episode. And by that I mean I most definitely did and can't wait until they arrive :)

[@traciemillar]

Wait by the mailbox....you're going to loooooooooove them! ❤️

[@paulafralick2434]

I love the look of picot bindoffs so much that I have used them instead of fringe on scarves.

[@FairyLittle]

Such a great episode ladies! I just want to hang out with you and knit and laugh!

[@tgslorenzo]

Can you tell me where Jodi bought those mini yarn sets at? I love how she had two different sets! ❤ You Girls Rock. 😄 I always am happy after watching you two do your podcast! 😊

[@traciemillar]

[@annotlewski1104]

Recently discovered you guys and Love the show! You are my morning talk show with coffee (and knitting). I just wish you had CC for those of us hearing impaired. Sometimes it is hard to hear you (especially Jodie who speaks very softly).

[@lugenekeene3253]

Hi Jodi and Tracie, Have you heard of Crafternoon Treats podcast? Kathryn is a fantastic crocheter and just a lovely podcaster.

[@chadroberts7099]

I 💞 grocery girls!!!

[@dshorty57]

[@asmith8784]

HA!!!! I am the official first viewer!

[@traciemillar]

Whoop! Whoop!! Thanks for tuning in 👌😀

[@kathygoodman4531]

I just want to say that if we lived near each other we would be best friends. We are so much alike!

[@wilmadeboer7436]

You are the best!

[@sandranokes7443]

Love watching all your podcasts. Talking about the 3 color cashmere shawl, you should watch the newest podcast of Milkshed podcast. It's short, but it's just about her 3 color cashmere shawl and it's awesome. It turned out like a work of art! I didn't know if you knew of this podcast, but you should watch her. :)

[@traciemillar]

+Sandra Nokes I saw this!!! I was blown away by Stef's shawl.....and such a beautiful video. Jodi and I both watch Milk Shed podcast all the time! Thanks for the recommendation .

[@lindybarnes1736]

HELP!!! Where do I go to find your show notes?

[@Tryingtogogreen]

I wanted to buy a hat trick yarn in St. Louis for my team but shipping to me in the U.S. Is $25

[@judymiller3809]

We posted a message on your Episode 3 Podcast. Goodbye Netflix. Hello Grocery Girls 😘😘

[@traciemillar]

Hi Judy!! I love that you're watching your kids' old baby sitter chatting about yarn & knitting!! 😘😘

[@Davidraikeshot]

[@annnewell3369]

Hi Grocery Girls I have just had my 60th birthday and my sister-in-law bought me some sock wool but i have never knit socks and was wondering if you can point me in right direction for an easy sock pattern please i am from the UK

[@traciemillar]

+Ann Newell Hi there Ann!!!!! A new sock knitter....YAY!!! A couple of wonderful sock "recipes" on Ravelry are "How I Make My Socks" by Susan B. Anderson and "A Good Plain Sock" by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee. If you need to learn all of the techniques, I would highly recommend the sock class that Ann Budd teaches on www.craftsy.com. She is an unbelievable and very down to earth instructor. You will learn SO MUCH! Best of luck, and keep us posted!

[@annnewell3369]

+Tracie Millar wow amazing thank you so much

[@crazyboutknitting]

I have a canister of Santa's Secret Tracie!!!!!! I can be bribed also!!!!!

[@traciemillar]

Lucky duck!!! Enjoy....isn't it soooooo yummy??

[@crazyboutknitting]

+Tracie would you like me to send you it?

[@traciemillar]

+Marnie Hines That's a very kind offer...but I couldn't. Enjoy the tea!! 😊

[@heidicran]

Tracie!!!! You should totally try cross stitching!! It is my number one, hands down, favourite way to relax! Feel free to check out my IG feed for some possible inspiration. PLUS!!!! You have the most AMAZING store there in Calgary for supplies!! I order from there all the time! It's called Traditional Stitches and it's on Bearspaw. Maybe you know it??? You must check it out!!!!

[@traciemillar]

+Heidi Cran Talk about enabling!! I think Im going to have to try this cross stitch thing...;)

[@heidicran]

You totally should!!! Let me know if you do!!!!

[@wilmadeboer7436]

You are the best

[@traciemillar]

No Wilma..... You're the best!! 😎❤️

[@Norfolk250]

‘Frogging’? 0:08:45

[@estherbrown9135]

do you like knitting from the toe up or cuff down both of you

[@Norfolk250]

Wow! Call me hyper-sensitive (June 2020), but the story at 0:05:19 ..... your ‘white privilege’ was screaming very loudly. Otherwise, who would have wagered you would have arrived at the police station alive. Wo/Man.... what a time we are living in. What a life we have been asleep during while all this was going on in a segment of our populous on a daily basis. Sorry....didn’t mean to slope that way tonight, but, that’s my own white privileged talking just the same. Hurts to know just how often that shite happened/s.
