Here in the USA we had Shari Lewis and her sock puppet Lamb Chop. They were on TV for decades - Google them. Lamb Chop was such a sweet character! 🐑 Love the new Mittens, especially the length! 💞

[@laurelrobbins8673]

I loved Lambchop!

[@annetteferrari8093]

@Laurel Robbins talk about joy for generations, little Lambchop was it! Oh, and another favorite, Mr. Rogers! Daniel Tiger, another sweet character - although, not a sock. 💖

[@jacquelinegonzalezmahr5301]

Just so you know, I’m so utterly besotted with you two that I would have happily listened to you talk about sock puppets for hours. 🥰

[@janetcollins1129]

Luv you talking with your hands ....with your mitts on..so cute

[@ingridveilleux4786]

Loved your sock and slipper puppet "side trip". That was awesome.

[@lorettazaharias9692]

My childhood puppet show was Kukla, Fran and Ollie! back in the 50's...❤your mittens with colourwork!

[@aliciaquintano6506]

I love the puppets! When we were little my father would sit us on his lap and make a puppet out of his hand that would then try to attack his face while he tried to restrain it with his other hand. We loved it. :)

[@roseprincess2155]

Your fans will always wait for you!

[@hollyparker8846]

I went back to Carlos’ instruction video on purling. I finally got it!

[@ARNECARLOS]

👍🏻

[@angelagenovese6207]

Beautiful mittens and the length just makes sense. Who wants snow getting into the cuff at the wrist? Your puppet show reminded me of when I was a very little girl (many thousand years ago) and I watched Shari Lewis. She had a sock puppets and my favorite was Lamb Chop, a sheep puppet. Figures that a sheep was my favorite! Thanks for that memory. Love you both! 🐑🐑🐑❤❤❤

[@cristinaslaughter6025]

Carlos, you made those beautiful mittens look so comfortable and cozy! Putting them on and not wanting to take them off! Thank you for very helpful tips!

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@juleehunter8032]

I love visiting with the two of you! Most of all, the kindness you extend to each other is to be treasured in this world!

[@marjon...4212]

How funny to watch this video when I'm wearing the sweater you show! I have just finished it. I loved to knit it with the Norwegian wool I bought during the cruise together with you in Tromso. Brings back a lot of good memories😃

[@ARNECARLOS]

Congratulations!

[@aroundtheworldfibers]

You two get me laughing every time I watch your videos. Talking socks and slippers. I love it. I wish I could knit with the dexterity of Arne. My fingers don't quite work as well as they used to, but at least I can still knit. The mittens look so toasty and warm - love them!

[@carolinegetman2720]

Thanks for the tutorial and the laughs!❤❤

[@tammybarnes9520]

Love your tutorials, you both are great teachers. Thank you for taking the time to teach us . Be safe

[@irenemacleod5140]

hi guys i liked your podcast today i liked that you knit the grey and purl the red makes it easier beautiful pattern thank you so much ok see you wed

[@ARNECARLOS]

See you!

[@jamieayers30]

Always a GREAT BIG THUMBS UP for you BOTH!!!!😊❤❤❤❤

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@PinkSallyProductions]

Gorgeous pattern! Takk for the tutorial. I love that Carlos kept the gloves on all the way through lol! Be well, Sally 🌹

[@ARNECARLOS]

You as well!

[@BeautifulOaks]

Enjoyable morning with you both. I like the warmth and flexibility that color work knitting brings. I like the silly idea about a puppet show. When I was a kid, I enjoyed simple puppet shows . Sometimes, I find my hands air eating a family member’s words because they won’t stop bugging me.😂

[@deborahlee4941]

I learned to cha cha cha with Carlos.

[@thizizliz]

I just had to mention that your purling technique is also saving me on double knitting - I was trying to purl them but by putting the yarn on my left finger it became so easy to do the slip purlwise without making it a stitch. So from here in Southern California (just North of Palm Springs) I was thanking you both for bringing me greater success in my simple project for donation knitting. I donate to the thrift store that supports the local little hospital and another that supports the shelter for abused women and they sell the hats and headbands to people who don't realize that at this higher elevation, they need to keep their heads warm in winter! So THANK YOU!!!!!

[@Stettafire]

Personally I prefer throwing so purling is just the same but backwards (if that makes sense). But everyone should find whatever knitting style works for them :)

[@Mummumster]

As a Texan I only wear mittens maybe once or twice a year. Your mittens are so lovely and different I have to make them ! ❤ thank you for sharing with the knitting community the ease of making these glorious accessories 😊

[@barbarakb8847]

Thanks for this tutorial! Very helpful!

[@Barons.knitting]

Every time I watch you're videos. I have to smile. Your videos make me happy.

[@candygrubisic]

A pattern that has the background color as all knits makes it even easier to follow the pattern in my opinion...cool.

[@cherylg.813]

Happy Sunday! Always a blessing to spend a few minutes with you. 😊 Beautiful mittens! ❤️😘

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

I am always amazed at the speed of Arne's knitting, I'd like to be that fast !!!

[@karengreen7007]

Always entertaining. Love the idea of purling the 2nd colour. Thank you for the tip in the free Rowan patterns.

[@anniebeemusicetc]

Learning the Norwegian Purl from you guys has changed my knitting life!!!☺

[@debracubitt6191]

Your mittens are gorgeous Arne and Carlos! All the designs are beautiful The question remains "where to begin?"The colors are simply stunning

[@Lola-yw8ki]

I absolutely adore you both! I hope one day to meet in person for a class! Thank you so much for these wonderful videos! Looking forward to the next one!

[@benjisprincess304]

Efficient, relaxing, and fun. The Norwegian purl is my favorite knitting technique. Thanks for sharing Arne an d Carlos.

[@maryhood1243]

Love these❤

[@karinanderson7319]

This was so fun gentlemen, I loved watching Carlos trying to turn the pages of the pattern book with the mittens on!!😂 The mittens are absolutely beautiful! No wonder you didn't want to take them off Carlos!💖

[@sheilamann6721]

Oooooh a puppet show. Way back 1960s in England fond memories of Bill and Ben flowerpot men!

[@davidhensley76]

For very fancy mittens one could string beads onto the contrast yarn so some of the purl bumps would be beaded bumps.

[@ballyclaresporthorses2242]

I am so grateful for your video that taught me to purl your Norwegian way. It’s terrific! Love learning color work!! Thank you! You both are lovely teachers!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Congratulations!

[@darleneburton7367]

Love those mittens so beautiful. I started the Norwegian style knitting after seeing your channel and I love it because my hands don’t tire as much. For me the “ cha cha” mantra made it easier. Love watching you both ! From Cape Breton NS 🇨🇦

[@annesmith3352]

Absolutely gorgeous mittens! I’ve never done colour work so eventually I will but definitely not as fancy as you do! Thank you as always! Xx 💙💜💙

[@KatrinaT]

Arne, you definitely looked and sounded like a television presenter! I loved your intro. 😊 I stopped knitting years ago but you guys have inspired me to take it up again. I am working on the sock I gave up on 12 years ago. I am finishing the leg and then will start on the second sock.

[@ARNECARLOS]

I always had terrible trouble purling until I started learning the Norwegian purl from you. Now I can purl really well, so thank you. Love the episode xx

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome

[@lynnbean7200]

Lovely pattern. I don't tend to wear gloves or mittens as it's not cold enough here but I'm going to make some anyway. I'll just keep them for visiting Europe lol. I love your Rowan collection and have made the Tove sweater. It's so cosy. I'd like to make this one too.

[@sharmanklinefelter508]

so beautiful you chose light gray with red love that combination of color will have to incorporate those 2 colors with my work cannt wait to try stay safe and my blessings to you from your sweedish friend on the usa

[@laurelrobbins8673]

I had to laugh when you talked about "thumbs down". I enjoy seeing you each time, so KZbin may as well remove the thumbs down from your videos! You cheer me up and make my day. Also those mittens are lovely!

[@lorenakelly1435]

Love your tutorial thank

[@taniabishop]

I’ve been knitting a plain stocking stitch mohair jumper and using the Norwegian knit and purl techniques. It’s creating a much more even tension for me. I’d like to try this mitten pattern as it will be good practice too 😊 🧶

[@jackieoneil779]

Love you two

[@ritahenderson1627]

May try this technique on something else! Interesting!

[@florenfroe23]

Love the episode. Ya’ll are so fun. I want to make color work mittens.

[@ARNECARLOS]

You should!

[@carolfaber585]

I only learned yesterday that knitting English is different than throwing, even though both use the right hand. Anyway, for me, learning the Norwegian purl means now I can do ribbing very fast but the opposite of you, Arne.

[@marciasullivan7534]

Thank you good demo

[@roli3342]

please - don't ever stop digressing watching Carlos trying to turn pages with the mittens on i thought about zipping or buttoning up a jacket with the mittens on and laughed - thank you

[@katev2787]

I am trying to learn your Norwegian way of knitting. This has so much information on holding the needles and yarn. I am getting arthritis and have to learn some new ways to hold my hands when I knit. Thank you for your kind help - I can watch on slow and can watch several times - which I do need to do. One thing: I can always clearly hear Carlos, but Arne's voice is so soft I have to turn the volume up quite a bit - especially when he is explaining. Not just this video but others, too - it seems like Arne's microphone is turned down.

[@blasebaker]

Love long mittens. That way they go way up the sleeves of my coat.

[@carrielovesfanta]

Because I'm just starting to learn Norwegian, I've been watching pre-school programs! I'm working my way through Brillebjørn 😅

[@ARNECARLOS]

😊

[@MikiCrespo]

Thanks so much for sharing 💗🧶💗

[@irishknitter17]

I always thought if I were to knit two colors I would continental stitch one color and throw th other… cool

[@eileengizienski543]

Hi Arne and Carlos! Have you ever designed mitten pattern where the end of the mittens (over the fingers) can fold back in some way to make the fingers accessible, like for typing or texting, without taking the mitten off? I've seen them for sale as a finished garment, but I was hoping you two might have done that sort of pattern? As always, love your videos! 😎Thanks!

[@tinajohnston2736]

I am playing with the purls with the sathestal knit along. Im not sure Im loving it. Do you think it is too compicated of a colorwork pattern to pull off the purl?

[@kristinfromoregon6372]

Hi! I love watching and learning from your videos! I am curious if there is color dominance when you do the knit-purl color work holding the yarn in each hand? I am still learning Norwegian purling and wonder if my old technique would still be ok? Thank you for sharing and making the world a happier place😊

[@fionad9913]

I too wonder if the Norwegian purl helps with more even tension and makes color dominance less of a problem....

[@ARNECARLOS]

We have done this episode on that subject: kzbin.info/aero/PLElv_tSbHW3qn8RKkX2Zu8Kug2mKGcjVo

[@tl4214]

Will the mittens need multiple balls each in Norwegian Wool? Or, can you use the same number of balls, making 2 pair in alternating main and background colors?

[@destiny2238]

I‘m always wondering how you in Norwegen or England pull the yarn over the needle with the fingers I‘m from Germany and have learned to do all the stitches with the needle. For me this seems so awkward and slow to take the yarn the norwegian way. But ist’s all about how you‘re used to do something. In the end the pattern is fantastic however you knit it.👏

[@ARNECARLOS]

Well said, it is the result that counts!

[@michelemurnane2834]

It is easier to purl on circular needles for me. I pick the knit stitch and throw the purl stitch. I need an in person tutorial on picking the purl stitch.

[@anitajohannadrost]

[@margarethastings6010]

I don’t like to disagree with you but I find purling my way which is the way I was taught by my mum, and I have been knitting for over 70 years, just bring your yarn to the front then purl the stitch, but think you should knit whatever is easer for you, I find the Norwegian way to soar on my hands.😊

[@christinaheesakacowden-wut3809]

Hi guys. I just wanted to say, that many people in Germany do not have credit cards. We pay via PayPal or EC card. I wanted to get a pattern from your shop, now especially because there is a sale on, but you only accept credit cards. What a pitty.
