🕊 Merryweather Knitting Podcast Ep. 48 - Making in the Margins

[@kaoim5045]

congratulations for both , being a new mum and moving house - its great, that you are back and happy and sharing about your crafts !!!!

[@rainoryarn]

Welcome back, it was refreshing and a joy to watch your video. I would love to hear your birth story and home decor ideas! You look lovely after having a baby and that dress looked amazing on you, with your fair skin and dark hair, just beautiful. The new flat has wonderful large windows, gorgeous light and view. I was in Italy when I first began following then went back to States for one year and now back in Europe, in southern Spain now! It's true that you can be near a city and not far from nature in this continent.

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much for the warm welcome and encouraging words!! 🥰 Oh what a wonderful adventurous life you live, I am so intrigued by all you must have experienced living on both continents! There are wonderful things about both sides of the 'pond' but I do think there are special charms having both city and country accessible here. Wishing you a wonderful season full of joyful making!! 🤍✨🕊️

I love your podcast.! I’m a knitter, a70 year old Granny with 5 grandchildren. Bella of Hundred Acre Wool podcast recommended your podcast. I’m hooked and I e already subscribed! I love your green living room. It looks almost like a garden with your beautiful plants! Can’t wait to see your next episode. I’ll probably also binge watch past episodes. Love hearing about and seeing all your projects, including sewing. I’m also a fan of sewing. and all things baby and toddler. Your energy and enthusiasm blesses me and lifts my spirits. See you again soon. Katie from Maine USA💖🧶

[@thekindles1183]

As a mommy, I LOVE hearing all the things and balancing of all of them. It always nice to hear knitting but it's great to see how excited you are with your family. Such a fun and tiring but fun time. Take good care! all the best, kimberly

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much for your encouragement Kimberly!! I so agree with you- it is the ultimate adventure and oh so fun! 🥰

[@delilahmertoglu]

It's so wonderful to see your lovely self again Gabriella! I've definitely missed sitting down to knit with you😊 I can definitely relate to not being "elegant in my processes" while postpartum but then things settle and you find yourself again eventually.

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much lovely Delilah!! I think you are absolutely right. It's such a process, but a really joyful and adventurous one. ✨🕊️ Sending love your way and hoping your days are filled with peaceful making moments! 🥰

[@WellLovedKnits]

I have missed you, Gabriella! I am so so happy for you. You are radiant! It was so nice to hear your life update - I imagine you have your hands full with two little ones but it sounds like you're enjoying this magical time :) and I agree with others - you don't even need to chat about knitting, it's lovely just to catch up

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

You are so endlessly kind Bethany, thank you!! 🥰

[@sugarfolkhomemade]

So glad to be able to sit down and knit and listen to your journey over the past few months, I have missed your joyful spirit! I know all too well that "identity crisis" that happens after giving birth, that's what eventually ended up in me even learning to knit. But I'm so happy to hear that you've been finding joy in other areas, that's so important! All of the dresses you showed are so cute! And The clip of you in the shirred dress was beautiful ❤️ Looking forward to "chatting" with you again! 😊

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much Makayla!! I definitely agree. Motherhood really is the most amazing adventure- and finding ways to create and make in the midst of it is so much fun. 🤍✨🕊️🥰

[@wildcottageknitting]

It’s so nice to see you, and share in the joy & excitement of all that you have been doing! Congratulations on your new wee girl 🤗🤗🤗

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much Susan!! Hoping you are having a very cozy season full of wonderful making 🥰🥰🥰

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much for the warm welcome dear Stephanie!! 🤍 It is so lovely to be back. 🥰🥰

[@melmade13]

Lovely to have you back, thank you for sharing. I am in the middle of a knitters elbow crisis and watching this has inspired me to crack on with my sewing in the meantime, your dresses are beautiful ❤

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

I am so sorry to hear that Mel! You are so prolific and make the most wonderful projects, that's so tough. Sewing has definitely been fun to experiment with though- there is nothing like wearing your own handmade garments. Wishing your elbow quick and complete healing!! ❤

[@papercraneyarns]

Gabriella, you could never talk about knitting again and I would still watch and enjoy every moment! Thank you as always for sharing, and I just love all your gorgeous dresses and projects! I lived in dresses when I first had Aurra. Your shirred dress is so beautiful, I can absolutely see why it gave you confidence in those delicate early post-partum days. So happy for you and your new home. One day we will have time to knit again!

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

You are so kind Ashley thank you so much!! 🤍🥰

Thank you so much!! 🤍🥰🤍

[@beateervin1772]

Hi Gabriella! I was so excited to watch your video! I’ve missed you ❤ I’m so glad things are going well for you and your lovely little family. I love hearing about your sewing adventures. Right now I’ve finally started my Calville shawl. It took ages to find the yarn i wanted to use. I’ve finally found the *right* yarn. It’s a natural colored 70% Suri 30% Merino from a local alpaca. Seriously, the alpaca lives 15 minutes down the road from my house. It’s the bounciest 3 ply. I’m glad I waited to find the perfect yarn to start.

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much for your kind words dear Beate!! I have missed YOU and am so excited to hear that you have started on your Calville shawl! The yarn you chose sounds like an absolute dream. What a truly special project to be knitting with local yarn, I feel so humbled and honoured that it is my design!! 🤍✨🕊️🥰 Sending warm wishes your way, and hoping you are having a joyous season full of cozy making!

[@helenedumoulin9092]

Welcome back Gabriella!

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much! 🤍✨🕊️

[@FennelFiber]

Hello! I think I found your channel right as you took a break :p this was a very relaxing vlog and you have a lovely personality. Your projects are beautiful! I’d absolutely love to hear things outside of making, I think that only ever adds more perspective of the person we are watching and making along with. :) -fennelandfiber

[@kathrynbarry9416]

Big congratulations ❤

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much! 🥰

[@hufflefluffnazwool9265]

It was a treat to sit, knit and listen to your adventures! Love love love the wrap top in that color so much! And I mean... 'creating' a little human, watching them grow.. It is a project too in a way so I think it fits very well in this podcast... And it is nice just to watch you thrive with those crafts you do :)

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

You are so right and so sweet, thank you for your words!! 🤍✨🕊️🥰

[@dyee185]

Thank you so much!! It is so wonderful to be back 🥰

[@alexandrah535]

Going back and rewatching some recent episodes 😂 Maybe turn the gingham dress into a skirt?

[@jennyzhang7332]

for that dress, maybe you could try to tuck the edge of the sleeves under your bra straps

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Yes! I'll need to try that. Thank you! 🤍

[@denisafurr5672]

I am so happy to see you return to podcasting ❤😊 I am currently working on the latest Stephen West Mkal. It’s over but I haven’t finished. Lol. And I have 2 other wips. One are Carolina Panthers football 🏈 socks 🧦 😂for my husband and a commission piece, a crocheted cardigan. 🧶😊

[@MerryweatherKnitting]

Thank you so much Denisa!! It is so lovely to be back and to see your username! 🥰 Those projects sounds wonderful- I am so intrigued by the Stephen West MKAL this year it looks wonderful! Your husband is lucky to get his own pair of Panthers socks and a commissioned cardigan sounds exciting too!! ✨ I hope you are having a very cozy season and enjoying every stitch!! 🤍🤍
