I came to KCC by myself from Minnesota. And I met a group of friends who were knitters from southern Saskatchewan (and Calgary). They were teachers and great women and made me feel very welcome!

[@pammyers1982]

I absolutely love Jodi’s sweater and would wear it every day. I also Tracie’s sparkling sweater. I’d wear both any time. So gorgeous! 💜💗💜💗

[@knotyeoldecrochet]

Oh Tracy you are a legend! Naming a future merlot coloured yarn for Autumn that Jody can dye calling it "Don't Be So Winey" 🍷 Perfect!! Absolutely love you girls ❤ Susannah, Perth

[@klaskelangford8324]

Thank you soooo much! You ladies fill the world with so much joy and love: amazing!

[@samiraamysperryfaldet8969]

The Frankie V is amazing!! I want it for a solid, too with bling and a solid!! yay

[@cathylayher3580]

Omg! I read Chris Whittaker’s book on vacation to Europe and couldn’t put it down! Such a great book!

[@KimH11]

Another great podcast Ladies !! My world stops when you load a video for us ❤

[@barbaramcewen]

I adore the vibrant Frankie Grey colours! Saw you both at Knit City but I was busy shopping till I dropped! 😂 I went alone too and didn't feel weird at all. I had a great time and felt the kindness of so many vendors!

[@pegyounger3998]

Love the joy and excitement you girls share, so many ideas,so little time, and not much money, and too much stash! Nothing like new, shiny. Thanks for stopping by to visit me in SD. 💛

[@alicetownsend3306]

you mentioned Portland and Starlight. My daughter lives in Portland, am I lucky or what?? and a tattoo shop right next door to Starlight!!! I have been to the yarn crawl in Portland for about 5 years in a row. have every single year bag, and all the pins. OMG, I visit Starlight every time I visit the kid. such a beautiful city! XOXO

[@Meredith36]

Sending love from New Hampshire! The sweaters you two changed into is now in my queue. Frankie Grey Fibers is stunning! Happy knitting 💚🧶💚

[@knitleaks]

Dear Tracie and Jodi, thank you so much for the shoutout for me and @knitleaks! KCC was amazing, and meeting you in Edmonton was an absolute blast. Sending lots of love from Brazil

[@rachelleklone3876]

Hi Ladies! I’m watching this with the amazing Moon Rose! I was at Knit City with her and we are totally loving this episode! It was so exciting to see her picture with you! We love you both and together you are awesome and hilarious! You remind us of us! We’ve had so many laughs!! But now that you’ve gone through so many vendors, there’s so much more we want to buy!! Lol! Thanks!

[@catherineluhm7032]

I thought you were never going to tell us what you're wearing! 😂 I love both your sweaters! 🤗🧶❤

[@samiraamysperryfaldet8969]

Ordered wild child and Thank-you so much for the Gorgeous tote and tape... you are so gifted and generous. Always a joy to use your yarn.

[@tammihackley4349]

Love how you throw & hold different combinations of yarns together, Tracy

[@my.fiber.addiction]

You have inspired me to add sparkle to my knits! I have three Lentos in my Queue now😊

[@misschiversstitches5887]

As always another awesome chat. So much news! Thanks so much for FREE SHIPPING Jodi. From Australia, very grateful. I snagged some Majestic Fluff I have been wanting to try. We are just getting into the summer knits over here. Thanks Tracie and Jodi 😊🧡

[@KellyExline]

Jody please make more of the yarn from Tracy's sweater!!!! Perfect Rose/Purple!

[@theresazhong8876]

So soothing

[@deniseking8019]

I am so jealous of your trip to Scotland! Have you seen Rachel Knits podcasts? She talks us through her trips to Scotland and also a trip to Ireland. I was drooling!

[@bethmcintyre375]

Girls I read the itinerary an excellent trip.I live in Edinburgh I should come on this trip I still knit the 2 needle way.I would love to go to knit city😊

[@darcyspies828]

My first yarn festival, from Saskatchewan, totally worth the drive and effort to attend!! Loved meeting you two, you were so gracious to pose for a picture with me, wish I’d chatted with you longer, but you had a few waiting behind me. I bought 4 skeins of Frankie Grey Fibres; Old Town Road x 2, Iron x 1, & Gingerbread x 1, thinking a striped sweater in the fingering weight. Thank you for the awesome bag & tape measure!! I definitely added to my yarn stash from various vendors, everyone was so helpful! Next time will attend both days and bring my knitting with me to sit & visit with like minded people!

[@deboraharnold8587]

You ladies look so glam and gorgeous!! 🤩🤩

[@beckyearl5008]

You two kill me! When Tracy yelled ‘shitballs’ I literally cackled because I use that phrase all the time! 😂😂 I’m dying to know what Jody’s coffee was. It looked amazing!

[@JulieChartrand-y2l]

Love the shawl clip with the flower! 😍

[@SPORE660]

Counting the days until meeting you both on the Canadian New England Cruise!❤ 🛳️

[@sandranewman8191]

I made a family trip for the Knit City Calgary. Loved Alberta there are many beautiful hiking trails. My daughter and I went to the show. It was everything you guys said! Please make a blue version of the Deb cardi kit! Sandra

[@me02041957]

you are the best! i wish i had a sister

[@ChristieArcher]

WAHOO!!! Only 1 week until we see you both again. 🎉

[@marydamico8552]

Your podcast is so enjoyable to watch! I really like both of your glasses. Can you share the brand and style?

[@sandiolson2064]

Yes I liked knit city I saw you two but not close enough to say hi! It was very roomy at knit city. Usually packed. Enjoyed it

[@beckyseiler]

There are 3 “Housemaid” books and you will not regret a moment of them!

[@monaeljabi8975]

😅Lichen and Lace is from Sackville NB about half an hour away from Moncton 😊

[@emilyschaming9520]

The samples you had at Knit City were amazing!

[@annbruno8295]

I’m always surprised how few people use knit companion, it’s SO much better than a paper pattern You can make notes in it

[@shandavis3840]

Please come to Portland!

[@carolb8073]

I’m ordering but not till the last week of August I draw social security. I’ll miss it. What a great video .

[@gapeach31781]

I don't know about Canada, but here in US if you eat corn, it's full of round up. So is the wheat. What isn't full of that mess is full of HFCS, not much you can eat here that isn't toxic causing fatty liver or cancer. We grow corn every year ourselves, not the roundup ready kind, but the old kind, and that's the only corn I eat. No bread, pasta, sweets, unless I buy organic flour and make it myself. Hope your government treats you better than ours does. As for knitting, your sweaters are gorgeous. You two are fast knitters! Really enjoy your podcast!

[@tammihackley4349]

Love the pink & purple cardigan that Jodi has on

[@MrsAChery]

Jodi (offscreen): “Tracie’s boobs are out” Tracie (so off screen): **sighs in relief** 😂😂😂

[@annies2416]

Jodi, you are so on top of trends. I saw a pair of burgundy Cole Hahn loafers for $40 and I couldn’t make them fit!!!😢😩And then you said you’re going to Rhinebeck the one year I can’t go.😢😩Definitely not my day!

[@denisewessman1079]

Love ❤️ 😂listening

[@lisad8731]

I love fall-sweater weather and my husband is already whining that he has to put a jacket on and is cold🤭🐑

[@Golfgirlv]

The housemaid is great. Also never lie

[@julianabazha6716]

Do you have the notes for your version of deb cardi? What stitch is made with metallic yarn?

[@alicetownsend3306]

Hi Ladies! I heard I was mentioned, but I think it might have been the other Alice. hahaha Everywhere I go they play the song...'Who the ******k is ALICE??!?!?' 😁Now I am listening here waiting for you to mention Alice lol! LOL! Dang that thing called work got in the way yesterday. I am looking forward to seeing you 2 on the boat🚢! and now I wish I did go to Knit City Calgary! I am saving my pennies for cruising soon! Hope to see you next Thursday! 🥰

[@martinelabelle4599]

love the penny loafer but, I pretty much only wear Clarks

[@LindaNixon-ws4ge]

We’ve been waiting for you guys

[@chesun4579]

corn fritters. I'm a teacher in St. Maarten. Our summer vacation is July 1-July 30.

[@jennifercook6863]

JODY...BRING BACK HIGH TEA!!! TRACIE, THAT SWEATER!!!!

[@donna8095]

knitting colors also relate with the world pulse. Tight finacial times have peope knitting with soft mutted colors and solid colors. Great financial time will bring in bright exciting colors . Just like the hem lines.

[@gretcheneiselt8665]

Tracie please bring your sparkly boots so we can see them

[@donna8095]

Hello from Thunder Bay, Ontario!!

[@carolb8073]

Yes, I’d love to buy a frank v set of yarn.

[@karenhattiberries9158]

I live in Scotland and you are going to love it .... Knockando WoolMill has some amazing stuff . Will you be doing Shetland Wool Festival? I'm going this year (end Sept) and am so excited...

[@debraevans2839]

Wow wow wow

[@MarleneRobanske]

Oh darn the kit of magpie shawl are sold out, hopefully more kits will be added

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

So I guess your new careers will be knitting travel agents. 😁

[@elissahalstead8352]

🤣 🍅 Haha Tracey. Your tomato plants are almost as tall as you!!

[@anniebouchard1298]

When and where will you be in Quebec City?

[@carolb8073]

I love those v neck sweaters !

[@janprattley3312]

Good morning from New Zealand 😊

[@the_busy_beaver_brooke]

I think the solar block stripe inspo you're thinking of jodi is stripe hype by Veronica Lindburg AKA kutovakika... Not sure in those couple spellings 😬

[@JackieMoore-u6h]

Good morning from the rock Newfoundland 🩷🇨🇦

[@bettypollock3465]

Hello from Cochrane Ontario.

[@roseannegallacher4239]

hi from peterborough ontario

[@carolb8073]

People are afraid to wear bright colors. I’m like that but I need to step out and enjoy color

[@MrsAChery]

Wait! Did Jodi’s coffee refill itself?? 🤔☕️

[@alainamazerolle5285]

Is one skein of DK enough for an Adult beanie?

[@sandiolson2064]

Nice girls to.

[@sandiolson2064]

Will you share your salad recipe

[@stacey_knecht]

How do you spell... Smitta? Smita? Smytta? :)

[@Jammanich]

Tracie are you okay? Your eye looked swollen and you are a bit quiet today

[@pegyounger3998]

The eye doctor measures how the eyelids block your vision to determine if you need the eyelid surgery 😊🫶🏻

[@sandiolson2064]

Nice girls to.
