The sound in this episode is not fabulous so let me apologize for that first of all.

So nice to know you are travelling and enjoying yourself. Not to rush our nice weather, but can’t wait for you to see Kate. Looking forward to a picture of the two of you!! Good luck with the dying of the wool. Kinda do agree with you, it needs something. Lovely knits in the works.

[@cassandra3399]

I’ve done that too when knitting socks, forgetting to do the heel turn. I’m glad I’m not the only one. Ha.

[@cynthiaroy9950]

Enjoy your time with Kate! I miss her podcasts very much!❤️

[@daveterryprehara576]

Thank you for you podcast, I always enjoy everything you share. Enjoy your travels and especially the visiting with Kate, I really miss her podcast. Perhaps the two of you might do your next podcast together…..😉

[@roseb4988]

Thankyou for another beautiful podcast Selma, enjoy so much. Amazing knitting 🧶, enjoy your holiday with Kate 😊

[@jacksheilaweber4322]

Hi Selma so good to see you. Happy anniversary! I love seeing all your makes. They are wonderful. Thank you for your podcast. Please tell sweet Kate we miss her. All the best! Sheila

[@itisasarah]

Thank you for your lovely podcast and your sweet words about mine Selma!!

[@hegeullfunn4924]

You are making so much gorgeous jumpers/top. Love the red one! Thanks for an nice time with you 🤗

[@juliamorrisey5541]

I am glad that Kate is well and I hope you have a lovely visit. Hopefully you can take some video when you are out together. Her podcast is how I found your podcast. I miss her Hawthorne Cottage podcast. I like that Brise pattern you showed. I may have to look into that.

[@marciamcguire6501]

Hi Selma ! SO enjoyable AS ALWAYS ! Glorious knitting !!! Thank you for sharing . Just amazed at how those sweet birdies eat right from your hand ! Love the closing music as I have stated, and the videos you post ! Have a Marvelous time in New York - safe travels ( ^ ; * ) All the best , marcia

[@elizabethandersen6068]

Selma, thank you for the beautiful podcast with the special uplifting ending. I would like to encourage viewers to watch Kiko’s knitting podcast. Kiko is in Germany and records from her yarn shop in Germany but in perfect English. She also has an entirely German podcast. Her knitting projects are delightful and expertly constructed. She knits all kinds of interesting garments and socks and also knits a lot of gnomes using patterns from imagined landscapes by Sarah Schira. I highly recommend Kiko to your viewers who might enjoy a similar podcast to yours with a gentle style and expertise.

[@heyBrownBerry]

Oooo, I love the theme of the LBK Make a Long! You always have such great ideas for these, Selma!

[@jeannievega1639]

Hi Selma, always a pleasure watching. So glad you are catching up with Kate. I miss her podcast. Enjoy your time in New York City. The Alpha sweater is gorgeous and that color looks stunning on you.

[@janemcronald4597]

I hope you and Kate have a great visit enjoy every minute together. I use to go to Belfast every summer and my cousin came to visit with me every summer. Covid put a stop to visits and I am sorry to say health issues will keep us apart. So make memories well you can. I so enjoy your podcast thank you

[@melaniejanenewton]

Hi Selma x another lovely podcast. Great makes. My favourites were the Hedgerow Yarns socks with those gloriously red toes and heels. Have a great time away with your friends and seeing Kate. Take care xx love, Mel xx

[@merricurl7300]

So happy to hear Kate is coming for a visit! Loved the episode! Have a great week.

[@emilykatemadethis]

Haha I've also done the same thing with my socks multiple times 🤣 it's comforting to know I'm not alone 🤣

[@dianevcalhoun6848]

My son lives in NYC so I have been there several times, most recently this month. I also avoided going to yarn shops, by design. The Ellis Island trip is well worth it and the Highline is AMAZING. Have a wonderful time!

[@laraeirwin1211]

You are making me laugh, I totally forget the heel turn. So frustrating, you are not alone. Great video and I learn so much from you, thank you Selma.

[@littlebigknits]

🤣😊😊😊

[@lindashields5939]

Another really enjoyable podcast episode! Thank you. I’m glad that I’m not the only one who’s tried starting the foot of a sock without doing a heel turn. 😜 My older son and his family live in Reno Nevada where last week they started the week on Sunday and Monday with snow and then by Friday the high temperature was 30 degrees C! Crazy! Do enjoy your time with Kate. Please say “Hi!” To her for me, I do miss her podcasts and hope she’s well. Salam wa sa’aadah

[@littlebigknits]

That is crazy!!

[@keerichards7294]

Yes, i too always forget the heelturn, glad you do too😂

[@HawthornCottageCraft]

16 days to go…..🎉🎉🎉

[@margaretgerth1067]

Would love to see you and Selma do a little podcast together! Miss yours Kate!

[@rootsrainyarns8017]

Another enjoyable visit, see you soon at the Kawartha Festival!

[@estherrubin867]

It’s always fun when you post a new episode and we get to see what’s been keeping your needles busy. I hope that you and Kate have the best time together. Being with a dear friend is one of the most pleasurable things to do! Please tell her hello from one of her loyal viewers❤️. Take care and thanks for all the inspiration.

[@crystalrogers9392]

Another fabulous episode! Thank you Selma. Have fun in NYC! ❤️

[@pattymcreynolds2720]

5 years! It doesn´t seem like itś been that long! Congratulations. It´s wonderful that Kate is coming to see you...I hope you all have a wonderful time. Say ¨hi¨ from an American viewer who misses her. Take care. Looking forward to your next podcast.

[@dinahdeuel525]

Thank you so much! Your podcast always makes me happy! The nature footage at the end was so relaxing to watch. Nature is amazing. I’m glad to hear Kate is coming to visit you. I have missed her podcasts so very much and have been concerned about her. Perhaps we will get to see her again ❣️

[@virginielaymet1845]

J'ai passer un très bon moment super👍😘🙋‍♀️🥰🌼🌺🌷⚘🌻💞🗽

[@teresadiaz9336]

Love your podcasts. Thank you for sharing more Podcasters with us. I am all caught up on your past podcasts. Now I have to wait! Lol. I really enjoy binge watching from the beginning. I am on to Phylena now thanks to your recommendation…. My Husband and I purchased Ebikes a year ago. We love them too. Enjoy your rides🌸

[@allsubstance]

I love the striping in the sweater; great color choices. It looks like a fun knit.

[@gratefulknitters8899]

Hi beautiful Selma! Love all your projects, everything you make looks so good on you.

[@nancymorgan5505]

Yes! I have forgotten to turn my heel once or twice and felt like such a dolt!

[@margreffle]

The colour of that Aphra will look, amazing on you!

[@nancycox6548]

Thanks for all of the podcast suggestions! Love your new Isabel Kramer sweater!

[@christinas.317]

Dear Selma, Thank you for another delightful podcast episode. I really had to laugh when you talked about your Sock heal dilemma: the same thing has happend to me several times. How exciting that Kate is coming to visit!! I wish you both a wonderful time together - I also miss her podcasts (as other viewers) and hope very much that she is well! Thank you for sharing your inspiring knits with us and for the wonderful bird - animal - nature impressions. I really enjoy them every episode. Have a lovely spring. Best wishes from Austria, Christina

[@heatherleask3752]

As always, a beautiful relaxing podcast. Excited when notification comes in and lets me know its there. Wonderful that Kate is coming from Ireland, so miss her podcasts…any possibility of recording a few minutes together when she is here and incorporating it into next podcast. Sounds like lots of excitement in the next month for you. Enjoy the travels and visit from Kate.

[@pamelamatt1441]

Beautiful podcast right to the very end! Love the music and the wildlife 🥰

[@genier7829]

Stealing plants is the worst! However, take heart. When my mother got sorrel going in her garden years ago, it really took, and it persisted for MANY years. Good luck!

[@littlebigknits]

It was doing really well! Now to find another plant!

[@SuzKnits]

The Opale shirt / sweater looks really nice!. Looking forward to seeing how that one works up.

[@glorypetyo7162]

Always great to see you! Thanks so much for sharing!🧶❤️

[@adrienneschmidt2053]

So sad that someone made off with your sorrel plant. I have some growing in my garden, and am delighted to share it with you. The front panel of the Aphra sweater looks very similar to a sweater I am almost finished working on - Pink if for Power by Melanie Berg.

[@littlebigknits]

Are you in Ottawa ?? 😬😬😬

[@adrienneschmidt2053]

Yes. Near Aviation Parkway and Montreal Road.

[@littlebigknits]

@@adrienneschmidt2053 I would be happy to take you up on that if it works for you! No pressure. Dm me on ig or Ravelry perhaps?

[@annemarie6967]

Yes! That happens to me too sometimes with knitting socks, forgetting to knit ' the small heel' as we call it in dutch. 🧦

[@jaynecroghan1573]

Enjoy your NYC trip! I think the Ellis Island Museum is probably my favourite museum ever .. with the Tenement Museum as a close second. It's a long time since we did these but I did do the High Line last month on a mother/ daughter trip! Consider an evening at Birdland if you and your fellow travellers like jazz!

[@maryannbourassa8190]

How lovely Kate is visiting. Have a great time. The pouches are so sweet.

[@helentkalcic4417]

Too bad about Purl Soho!!😆 I love the Cattail silk by purl soho, I double stranded it and did the Ankers Tee, literally used up 2 balls, I was almost going to play some yarn chicken, but didn’t 😬 I used the Katia concept yarn, but it wasn’t cotton/cashmere…it knit up nicely but it was very fine, I should have used mohair with it! 🤷🏻‍♀️guess I know for next time. That sweater is beautiful, color & pattern.

[@marynolan6627]

Always inspirational Selma. The nature shots are so lovely!

[@lindawilcox6617]

I love your black socks, and your EEEK has such a stunning neckline. You definitely mastered the two row increases; they look flawless. Oh, to have your fully inflated upper arms to be able to wear such short sleeves. My 75 yo arms don't look nearly so super in short sleeves any more. You have a busy and fun month ahead. Enjoy, Enjoy. Give Kate a hug for all of us that have been missing her lovely podcast. Have a wonderful time together. Thank you for a most pleasant hour of inspiration and joy.

[@suegodfrey4794]

Hi Selma... So.good to sit and knit with you again..I am knitting on socks and had to check I had done the heel right when you mentioned it...😄 Its lovely that Kate is coming to see you, sure you will have lots of adventures. So many lovely knits as always... Love and hugs Sue xx

[@littlebigknits]

Thank you my dear!! Hopefully a reunion for us all one day!

[@kimsechrest2202]

Oh how I enjoy the endings of your podcasts--the music--of course my fav, and the birds and flowers--just lovely Selma. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@barbarawatson1667]

I so enjoy your podcasts. All your projects are so lovely and your happiness is infectious. I too would also love to see Purl Soho. They seem to have so many gorgeous yarns. I bit the bullet a couple of months ago and ordered linen quill when they had a sale on and it really is fab. I’ve only done a swatch so far (finishing other projects first) but wow, I love the swatch. I really wish a shop owner in Canada could arrange a contract so we could get it here in this country and allow us not to have to pay duty and shipping from the US. Love from Calgary.

[@tracyhoward8228]

I spend my relaxation time poring over the color combinations and buying yarn from the quince and co website picking the perfect color combination for a garter scarf I'll never knit LOL

[@patriciabuuck5277]

Your knitted sweaters are beautiful!! Enjoy NYC!! Sock projects are great for travel!!

[@ericallerton809]

Lovely,,,,,!!!SELMA!,LOVE SEEING UR PODCASTS,,, THANKS SO MUCH,,,, So glad kate🏝coming,,,,,,,Miss her!!! Saw on instagram,,,she😁😎😍 was counting the days!!!! Elaine😍😍😍😍

[@amominak2]

Another enjoyable hour😻👋 The new orane/red knit looks so perfect for you ❣️ Have fun in NYC and with the lovely Kate😘

[@derekstallman]

Just like you I sometimes forget to turn the heel before picking up stitches. I always start the heel on a ws row on the back needle, so then I end on a right side row and then just go into picking up stitches. Then I'm like oh crap forgot the heel turn. And I love the red lace shirt, the garter texture is so lovely, it's one of my favorites lately

[@loesbraggaar9722]

Love seeing new to me designs! As always very inspiring!

[@WhatIKnitForLove]

Thanks so much for the mention Selma! 🙏❤️

[@littlebigknits]

🤗🤗🤗

[@susanbruty4727]

Lovely. So glad Kate is coming. A red squirrel! The dream. We do have them here in the UK but they are in the North. I've never seen one in the wild. Kate may have them in NI. That orange suits you BTW. X

[@littlebigknits]

They are everywhere here and very cute!

[@larajean1]

Love the Fairy Bouquet! I'm going to do that one. Have a great time in NYC...perfect time to come!

[@littlebigknits]

It’s an awesome pattern!

[@judithburke3637]

Thankyou Selma another scrumptious podcast xx

[@Sylvia_1002]

Your sweaters are always so pretty! Love your granny square crochet blanket. I'm working one using Scheepjes Stone and River Washed minis and will border it with their Black Onyx colorway. Can't wait to finish it.

[@lorirolison2502]

Another lovely and inspiring episode; really enjoy all your content!! So glad to hear Kate is doing well; please give her my best; miss her podcast so much!! Such exciting times ahead for you; sending blessing for safe travels and wishes for a glorious visit with Kate!! 😘💖✈🙏

[@aknitlife]

Love your podcast, awesome podcast as usual! Hope you have an awesome time in NYC, my stumbling ground! The Tenement Museum, I used to live a few blocks away. Please be careful, NYC crime rate has risen exponentially! The Highline is an awesome place! Have tons of fun in NYC and with Kate! ❤️❤️

[@littlebigknits]

Thanks for the heads up re NYC 😊😊

[@maryp4016]

Lovely podcast Selma. Love your orange Aphra top. Added it to my list. Have a lovely time on your trip

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

Thanks again for all this inspiration. I just have to put my knitting down to watch all the great nature at the end. Love it. Thanks !

[@littlebigknits]

Animals are amazing!!

[@luciaevangelho4593]

Congrats on your 5th year anniversary! Another great episode! love all the wips! I have already added a few completed projects to the MAL.

[@christinescamihorn6609]

Those cat bags! 😂 I, too, am not much of a gardener, despite many people assuming I am. I have managed to keep an aloe plant alive, and that's it. I'm so excited for you and Kate!! Enjoy your time together! 💜

[@MsKarenMR]

Thanks for Sharing your Eeek Ravelry link and Barefoot McCoy, too!!!!💖 The scenic route is all so Lovely 🦋🌻🤗💞

[@thizizliz]

Happy Spring to you! Although it does sound as though you skipped it and went straight to Summer! The clips at the end were stunning! Your Eeek summer sweater is PERFECT - I love it, but so is the new orange one with that lovely pattern on the front. Enjoy the next month - it's sounds like you have loads of wonderful things happening!!!!!

[@belindagritter1572]

Beautiful video at the end. So nice I shared the podcast link on my FB page suggesting non=knitting friends skip to the end. Thank you, Selma. Been a viewer of you since Two Tangled Skeins.

[@littlebigknits]

That’s so fun!! Hope they enjoy it too 😊😊

[@dorothyrainey1141]

Have a great time in NY! I hope the weather cooperates for you.

[@sindypierre9141]

Thank you for another great podcast, I have to admit that I have also started picking up stitches and worked in the round without turning the heel... very frustrating. Enjoy your trip to NY and the company of your friend and I'm looking forward to hearing all about it in your next episode ❤❤❤

[@jodiebanner6946]

I just forgot my heel turn on a sock and I just knit it when I got to it , I grabbed a spare set of DPN’s and went for it because it didn’t seem to affect my gusset pick up. I just have a few extra ends to weave in and there were a lot of extra needle tips bouncing around. I will do the second sock the normal way to see if I can tell the difference.

[@littlebigknits]

Good idea!!!

[@sandracroley9784]

Always so nice to sit and knit while watching your episodes. I've remembered that I was inspired by you to knit the Elorie...I have the yarn, just need to start!

[@tyedyediva9671]

Thank you for the podcast mention. 🥰 I’m glad you enjoy the podcast!

[@barbaraangier9967]

Hi Selma. I always look forward to your podcast. I think I get most of my knitting projects from you….I keep Ravelry open as I watch each episode. I love all your knits. Perhaps I’ll see you at the yarn festival in Kawartha Lakes I’m planning to go too!

[@littlebigknits]

Please say hello if you see me!

[@nadiak9099]

Your Aphra top is gorgeous! Makes me want to make one too! I would do an icord edge on the sleeves to not take away from the gorgeous center panel. Loved your Fairy Tale socks as well!

[@sannemikkelsen9491]

Love your podcast. And the footage was stunning. You live in stunning sorroundings, and take your time to take videos of it. Thanks.

[@joanneyoung5410]

Another great podcast Selma practically everything I’m knitting fits into the connections Kal as I’m either knitting for new babies coming into friends lives or my sweater from last years lay family yarn dyeing retreat . I’ve a mini from each person who attended and they are all bringing back lovely memories. I hope your New York trip is fun and that you have a great time with Kate

[@DillyDahlia]

A couple of lovely KZbin podcasts I’ve discovered recently are Knit Together with Kim and Jonna, who are two friends who live in NY and sometimes film in their LYS, and Stitching the High Notes…Joanna lives in the Bay Area of CA and also makes project bags and is a former opera singer. Lovely, calming podcasts just like yours! Also, have you seen the Gentle Knitter? She also lives in Ottawa and is an amazing knitter who uses mostly rustic wools in muted, neutral tones.

[@carolinvonfritsch5312]

Thank you Selma for this and all your lovely podcasts. Always inspiring and joyful with your fine humour and irony...brilliant.

[@sevenknits4892]

Thank you for your mention☺️ and thank you for the wonderful Podcast. You make such beautyful Things. Also I love the Song at the end and its now on my „the best list“ 🤗 my daugther lives in the USA, so I have the Chance to improve my english and perhaps sometime I try it… Vroni

[@littlebigknits]

You are welcome!

[@cathynewkirk6807]

Another enjoyable episode, thank you! Your question about captions may have already been answered, but just in case… in the upper right corner of your screen ( you need to be in full-screen mode), you’ll see three dots. When you click on them, you’ll see that one of the options is “auto-translate.” I hope this works for you!

[@littlebigknits]

Thank you!! Yes answered already but appreciate the effort 😊😊

[@CamijoKnitDesign]

Always a pleasure, Selma. Cant believe you could hand feet those birds!

[@littlebigknits]

They are waiting for food!!

[@debrizzo7031]

Great to see you! Love all the projects

[@leeanutson1026]

Moikka! I am always so happy when one of your episodes pops up! I am working on the Poetry pullover test knit with Sonder DK, plus, a little pullover for my wee granddaughter. I love this yarn! It is so lovely, rustic and soft at the same time. I am also testing for Meiju - my third. I love her patterns. I have the Kawartha festival on my calendar too. Do I need more yarn? Of course! Collecting yarn is a completely separate hobby - hei hei 🇨🇦🇫🇮

[@littlebigknits]

Hope we see one another at the festival!!

[@carinajohansson2760]

Thank you so much for a lovely episode💕🎶

[@jandkcon]

Selma, wonderful to see another episode and hope you don’t overdo yourself again! Here as well the birdsong fills the air as the heat has hit with a vengeance. Small soft summer projects and socks rule the day-hi to Kate, miss her-maybe we could catch a glimpse from your camera?🤞🌷🥰🧶🧦

[@Phylena]

Hi Selma! Thank you so much for the mention!

[@katecoyle5623]

Wonderful podcast once again Selma. Enjoy your trip to NYC. I just came back and we too visited the Tenneants Museum. Get tickets online and try to get more hours. No AC in the museum!! Go to the Essex St Market too. This was a wonderful find for us. Have fun! Love your sweater!!!

[@littlebigknits]

Thanks for the ideas!

[@sherismith9517]

Have a great trip. Be safe.

[@martharobinson9725]

I am making the Aphra sweater and it is a lot of fun. I made an error in the pattern when almost done the body, and so taking a break for a bit before I sort it out and rip back a few rows. I think you will love it.

[@jo-annethompson9645]

Thanks Selma, so lovely to watch another episode. Not visiting a yarn shop in NY.....ok, but what about that amazing notions shop? Wow, all that birdlife!

[@littlebigknits]

Which one?? That I could probably convince my non-knitting but crafty friends to go to!!

[@jo-annethompson9645]

I saw it on on episode of Cady Jax Knits in New York (you can look it up as that), where Christy Glass took them there. It was amazing!

[@jo-annethompson9645]

Sorry Selma, it was 'Kristy Glass Knits: Cadyjax in NYC' and the shop, M & J Trimming.

[@juliemaxwell4719]

I always love your podcasts Selma...you have inspired me to start sock knitting. I'm in New Zealand and our winter is setting in so good time to cast on some lovely socks!

[@margarethastings3332]

Love your Eeek sweater. Added to my queue. Remember to take your finished sock with you on your trip so that you can measure the leg length! 😜 I’ve almost gone straight to picking up stitches a few times, but somethings just stopped me in time. Now that I knit exclusively top down, working the heel flap, heel turn and gusset has become my favourite part of the sock. Hope to see some footage of Kate’s visit if she is up to it. I always enjoy that little piece of music at the end. 🥰

[@suzannescott7724]

I love that EEEK sweater! It’s adorable and looks so cute on you!!!

[@littlebigknits]

Thank you!!!

[@valeriedimilia6902]

Thank you for another wonderfully inspiring episode. Your knits are so beautiful! The nature footage at the end was the cherry on top. I hope you have a great trip to NY. I've been to the tenement museum and Ellis Island museum, both are very interesting. When my husband's sister walked into the Italian apartment at the tenement museum she gasped because it was so similar to her Italian grandma's home even down to the same Jesus picture, lace curtains, and other decorations. When we're were at Ellis Island we found my husband's grandfather's name as he came through there on his way into the country. We found out he was rejected the first time and sent home and a few years later he tried again and got in. He brought with him a cutting of his favorite fig tree and had it groing in his backyard. My husband remembers eating figs from it when he was growing up. After the grandparents both died and before the house was sold another cutting was made and sent to my sister in law and she grew a fig tree In her backyard and made more cuttings, one of which she gave to us and now we have Grandpa's fig tree growing in our garden. Such a wonderful connection to a man I never got to meet. Hugs, Valerie from Oregon

[@littlebigknits]

What a beautiful story!! Sorry I got to it so late 😊😊

[@patchwork9712]

So exciting when I see you’ve put up a new podcast. They’re all so enjoyable and inspiring. Next exciting moment was when you said Kate is coming to visit. I do so miss her podcasts but so pleased to hear she’s visiting. I guess that means she’s still knitting. Hi Kate! Also love your colour sense Selma. 30 deg eh. Is it humid too? Margaret

[@littlebigknits]

Thank you so much! Humid for sure!!

[@jenniferbarrett3272]

Selma, the footage at the end of the podcast is amazing! And all those adorable little goslings-no wonder we have a problem with the goose population out here in BC- those geese are very prolific. I love that orange sweater you are knitting-Knit Together with Kim and Jonna (a great new podcast) are starting a knit along with Isabelle Kraemer patterns and Myak yarn (but you can choose any pattern and yarn, so yours would fit in well). I too forget the heel turn more often than I care to think about- glad I am not alone-your socks all look lovely. I am about to start socks with some West Yorkshire Soinners yarn that I bought due to all the positive reviews it gets. I am with you and gardening-my house plants thrive, while my outside plants struggle-especially vegetables -I think I travel too much in the summer escaping the extreme heat of a Kamloops summer and vegetables need constant care and I need plants that thrive on neglect. Enjoy your trip to New York. It sounds like it will be a lot of fun with friends and adventures.

[@littlebigknits]

I think I’m neglectful of anything outside 😬 we have a lot of “trailer park” geese that never fly south because life’s just too good here!!

[@jenniferbarrett3272]

@@littlebigknits I blame it on global warming. We have geese and swans year round in BC now too.

[@KnittingWithCatHair]

Lovely episode as always Selma 🥰 Your Aphra is gorgeous 😍 Loved the nature footage at the end (especially the 🐢) 💕

[@littlebigknits]

😘😘 thank you Nikki!!
