My husband would love that deer sweater, he wears bow-ties when he dresses up.

[@mindykannon4650]

Love how you say Connecticut.....I live there and it sounds great!!!!!! whoohooo

[@trishcostello813]

Last time I made Mai Tais with my sister-in-law. Our husbands kept adding more rum, we kept adding more non alcoholic as it was for a large fancy dress party. It was a wonder we were still standing when all the guests arrived, in their Hawaiian costumes no less, (we are in Australia)and it is lethal testing cocktails. By the way love the knitting and yarn too.😮

[@melissabell1806]

I loved New Adventures of Old Christine. It was hilarious. Vincent needs to give it another try. ❤

[@megcarr3126]

Hi guys, just to let you know, my husband's gran knit me two pairs of socks 25% mohair and 75% wool. They are 25 years old and I still haven't had to retire them. I have only fixed one hole so far. Hopefully yours last as long Vincent! Max I love your yarn that you spun. 😂

[@trishcostello813]

I love your projects, the stag is lovely, the salmon fillet looks fabulous. Vincent, you did make me laugh with your very quick response No, we don’t need to watch The Sound Of Music.🤣🤣🤣 me too!

[@bethbamszoo]

I liked what you said about wearing handknit cardigans- I agree great to showcase and easy to do a change up when hot

[@TK-cx8ve]

Wow…Max the deer sweater is so beautiful!! The yarn colors are great😊.

[@lisareynolds4679]

I love watching your happy hours! I haven’t yet mastered knitting and watching though, so I hold my knitting while I watch and try to get in a few stitches! 😂

[@thekindles1183]

I love the deer sweater! I'm already thinking of what color to make his bow. So cute! Have fun in Chicago! All the best, Kimberly

[@Kaila999]

I had to look up “lazy Kate” because I know nothing about spinning…but yes, that is st to hold a few bobbins of spun yarn. “Lazy Susan” is something you can have in the middle of the table to hold a few condiments or cooked dishes, and you can spin towards your spot instead of asking someone to pass you the item. They sometimes have lazy Susans at big circular tables in Chinese restaurants. Also, you can put a lazy Susan inside a kitchen cabinet for efficiency, especially a corner cabinet where everything gets lost at the back. Now, tell us…what is it in French?

[@rachelraye285]

I love your moonbumbs! Could you make it a mystery box? Maybe you can include you destash yarns too! I cannot wait to purchase the pattern with the yarn!!

[@sunnyw4148]

I just bought Field as my goal for the Tour de Fleece. It will be two natural colors of Romney and Corriedale. Very excited.

[@andreesabourin9503]

You can definitely have the treadmill shipped here in Ottawa :)

[@Meredith36]

I love the buck sweater! It plays so well with my last name and went I’m a better knitter I’m making that sweater for my brothers. Lol I have a lot of brothers.

[@caffrec1]

Another thought besides dying a bare yarn sweater is to dye a sweater's quantity blank... kind of like a sock blank but for a sweater? Not sure if that has been done before or would work. But it would be fun to knit from.

[@helenerioux3121]

No! The Lazy Suzan is a kitchen turning organizer. Old ones were for keeping flour, sugar, cafe and teas. I have my grandmother Lazy Suzan 😊

[@les.garcons]

You're totally right! It's just called a "cake turntable"

[@rachelraye285]

Did you try a bath? It really helps with the aches from running. Also try eating oranges. Basketball players always have to help avoid cramps/ pains.

[@caro-line3811]

Je te souhaite un bon voyage 🙂

[@cynthiaspear-duncan7661]

You two are so cute

[@claireknitsnyc]

If you like pizza - highly recommend pequods pizza in Chicago!! so good. Thanks for a great episode.

[@jeannestorm4679]

Blue Curacao is blue so we can all feel we're living in the tropics!!! started 1920.🌴🌴🥥🥥🐠🐠

[@les.garcons]

Interesting!

[@Knithappenswithpam]

Awesome collab box with Needles At The Ready. I was lucky to get one. ❤. The yarn is gorgeous. Love all your knits.

[@lauriew6623]

oh, i was so happy to hear you guys were running! i used to run a lot; stalled for a year; now trying to get my mojo back. come on, you "old" guys... you're doing great! let's keep each other inspired. oh, i'm a 63 year old granny👵. got up to 7 miles this morning, but it wasn't pretty 😁

[@lisanakao1043]

Fun as always.

[@patriciapamponette9841]

Your cardigan is beautiful. Always a pleasure watching your podcast.❤

[@les.garcons]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@star_athena]

I enjoy spending time with you during these episodes. I play video games too so I’m glad you include them. Everything you’ve got going on is beautiful, as always. ❤

[@cassandras3465]

I’m with Max regarding toe up socks!! For me that’s the only way to knit them 😊 Vincent your brioche shawl is very pretty with the colors you chose. I’m currently knitting the Golden Willow shawl which is very fun because it’s all kinds of brioche stitches

[@ImCFoxx]

You make me so happy. I love the way you laugh together. Happy pride to you and all of my friends.

[@wendybonvie6807]

I loved the Mysterious Podcaster box!!!! Do you think you will do more with other podcasters?

[@knittingpossect]

Fun episode as always! I laughed out loud when Max said he is going to take photos of babies in Chicago! 🤣🤣-(Your fav posse 🤣😉) Kate

[@maggieodendaal3451]

My son is a big fane of that game . I wish i can get of the yarn . Love the colors .From Shouth Africa

[@michellemcclellan4245]

Another great episode. Olive green and pink, I think that is a lovely combo. Max, what yarn did you use with dyed in the wool for the Bumpy Cardigan?

[@MikiCrespo]

Amazing episode 🧶 so talented artists . Love your cardigan💗

[@bernicemcgowan6657]

If it has antlers it is a stag….as in your sweater

[@laurakohnross6106]

I continue to be so inspired by your many talents. Love your podcast! This episode was wonderful. Thanks.

[@gaylegoodfriend-jc5fc]

New Adventures of Old Christine was wonderful- Vincent, give it another try!! I think it took a few episodes for me to get into it.

[@jaymejones7623]

Thanks for entertaining me while I work, I love knitting with you during my lunch break!

[@KimClinger]

What a great discount! I was able to stick up on your patterns in my cart. I’ll be waiting for the other sale to order the pin…so I don’t have to pay shipping on it. Love you guys, Lola, your banter, your “English is hard” bit, and so much more! (First of all, your English is fantastic, in case nobody gets the joke.) My next project will be a pocket. Maybe several…could be a long hot summer around here. Thanks for all you do!

[@debmeyer3111]

I’d love to see colorway and merchandise after the two of you.

[@les.garcons]

We should do a show and tell, each episode, right? Show a colourway, its history, good colour matches... You're inspiring us!

[@andiastoria9562]

Moodgie candles are my favorite. I wish you still sold them. It’s difficult getting them in the US. I’m currently enjoying Ray’s candle while knitting Kevin’s yarn. ❤

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

Lovely episode. I wish you a good inventory period.

[@deniseconsiglio-lahti6443]

Another great episode. You are both very talented separately and together. Vincent, I joined the SOSUKNITS MKAL but got bored with it. I did her last MKAL which was so fantastic. Her patterns are well written and her tutorials are excellent. This shawl just didn’t inspire me. It’s good you are enjoying your knit. I can’t wait for the bumpy cardigan to be released. I want to knit it for Rhinebeck Im coming from Southern California so the cardigan will be good for her.

[@kathyevans6260]

Nice tattoo Vince!!!

[@ellenchiasson2303]

❤❤❤

[@pattigolden1]

I LOVE my podcaster box!! STILL looking for a perfect pattern, not a sock person. I think I waited too long to apply for test knitting, I've done a few in the past & would love to again. I'm just afraid to be chosen for something I don't adore (like brioche, sorry...just not a fan, maybe because I'm in a warm climate..I won't deny it's gorgeous). 😢 The deer sweater is stinkin'cute!!

[@nicolelalonde2208]

Hi I wanted to know for sock yarn. Is it better to get yarn with more Nylon & why? Also where was the spinning yarn from? What was it called? Merci ☺️

[@farkiemacd]

I know a lot of quilting people who set up IG destash accounts when they destash their fabric... maybe that would work for you?

[@roxirossetti6250]

If you still need an Ontario address for a Pelaton delivery, I can help.

[@christinebrady723]

Doe is a female deer, Stag or buck is a male deer

[@les.garcons]

Thank you 😊 I did research it after! I wasn't too far but not sure enough ❤️
