As always it was such a great spending time with you. Tracy, I loved your Night shift wrap and the baby raglan was soooo cute. I can't wait to see the Salty Air Tee finished (not rushing you). All the socks were so good. The Slip Crazy Shawl is so pretty, I love it. The pups are so adorable. Kristy, your handspun yarns are gorgeous, you really have a gift for that. I love, love, loved the Granny Stitch Hexagon Cardigan, what a beautiful garment, soooo fun, the colors just make you smile. Thank you for taking time to be with us, you are both so talented, and just a joy to watch. Take care

[@janmoll5535]

Thank you for another lovely chat and catch up. I love seeing all your knits and plans, also hearing that there's things you haven't finished is very reassuring 😂 I did my hexagon cardigan in all stash yarn, which I loved doing, gave it an extra challenge element.

[@judithburke3637]

I’m so fascinated how much spinning you do and the dyeing of the yarn what a talent you have would you ever be able to show us how you spin and dye x

[@woolandwishes]

Thank you! 😊 I'm hoping to film some mini tutorials in the future. I have some things I need to figure out first as I don't have good lighting in my kitchen or a tripod 😅

[@sharonsutcliffe]

Hi ladies, I will join in on your cal as I’ve just finished knitting my first sock. I think I’ve done ok the challenge is to do the second one which will take me sometime.

Lovely to see a new episode. Thank you both for taking the time when you could be knitting to do the podcast. There are days when knitting time is very limited so definitely appreciate what you do.

I think you both are so productive! My favorite is the Andrea Moury shawl. So beautiful! I would like to make one with my handspun too.

[@woolandwishes]

Thank you! The Nightshift shawl is such a fun project to showcase a selection of handspun. I'd love to see what colours you put together for yours! 😍

[@FrannyDoMakes]

Fab episode ladies- I’ve just sewn the ends in my first love note and and definitely see why people keep knitting them! I also recently got hooked on Finnish knitting stories too. X

[@woolandwishes]

Thanks so much Franny! 😊 Yes there's a good reason it's a popular pattern. I hope you're having a good day! 💕

[@woolandwishes]

Thank you so much for continuing to watch! 😁 We are so happy to be friends and would love to see what you've been making too! 💕

[@woolandwishes]

Thank you Diane! 😁 Oh linen and merino sounds perfect. I'll keep a look out for the new pattern, thanks 💕

[@annettekinney6090]

Just watching the end of this one where you are giving some podcasts and you mentioned Jana and Finnish Knitting Stories and she is who I learned about your podcast on a recent podcast. I came over here to subscribe and I always like to go back a few and catch up ❤

[@woolandwishes]

Thanks so much for checking us out Annette! Hope you're having fun with your knitting! 💕

[@debbiebrannam8252]

I have a notebook for my socks and every new pair I knit I put in all the details as I knit them ,stitch counts,needle size ,yarn used, the name of the pattern and finally how they fit and amount used .😊 Also have a separate notebook for jumpers etc , it’s a godsend

[@woolandwishes]

That's sounds really helpful Debbie 😁 We will definitely start keeping notes for socks ☺️💕

[@ksdunlap1479]

Hi! This was my first time watching you, and I'll be back. Because you mentioned it, I learned about you from We Share Needles podcast

[@woolandwishes]

Thank you Mum! 🐑🐇🌿🥰💕

[@heathertucker7056]

Lovely to see you again and see all your fabulous knitting! The hand spun is beautiful and the colours are stunning for Mum’s new sweater! Loved the stripey baby knit too! Please don’t apologise for the dog noises we hear. I love dogs and would love to see a little film clip of them one day on the video if you can! Take care ladies and thank you x

[@woolandwishes]

Thanks so much Heather! 😁 We will definitely add more clips of the boys to future episodes. It was quite funny when we listened back to the recording, it sounded like they were chewing through the floor! 🤣

[@kathyrusch2393]

I did my love note with two fingerings held together and it is pilling much at all. I assume its how much twist you get with the smaller guage yarn. Love your podcast. 😁

[@woolandwishes]

Thanks Kathy 😊 and thanks for letting me know about your love note, I think that's it 💕

[@tamisabo2797]

I caught your last episode and enjoyed it. So I went back and caught up and you timed this release perfectly for me, lol. Looking forward to the makealong. I signed up for a 5th market today so makealongs help motivate me. I have 4 pairs of socks on the go so I guess they’re moving up the WIP line. Beautiful makes shared today.

[@woolandwishes]

Thanks so much Tami! So pleased you're enjoying the episodes 😊 look forward to seeing the socks you're making! 😍

[@MsCarlaJS]

I just finished crocheting all the parts of my Toft Emma the Bunny. I just need to stuff her and sew the parts together.

[@woolandwishes]

Hope you had lots of fun making it! Thanks for spending time with us 😁💕

[@tessietwoboyle660]

Hoping to post some hands and feet for the mal! I will work on my hashtagging lol

[@woolandwishes]

Lovely! 😁 Look forward to seeing what you make 💕

[@sheilamccart7553]

Us oldies don’t know how to use Instagram 😂😂 like the mittens. What ply is your hand spun for the nightshift shawl please, it is beautiful.

[@woolandwishes]

Thanks so much Sheila! 😊 Sorry you're not on instagram, please email us photos of your finished items if you'd like to join in though 😁 I used a 2ply, dk weight handspun for the nightshift and the recommended needle size. I think the pattern calls for worsted ❤️

[@bobettemccann8497]

I've never done lacework. I started the Yume last night and this morning I messed it up somewhere. So I ripped it back. I think I need more practice and I'll start again in the future. Yours is beautiful.

[@woolandwishes]

Thank you Bobette! I hope you are able to get the hang of the lace, I found lifelines help to save the work you've already done and stitch markers in between pattern repeats help to keep track of stitch counts ❤️

[@hellekjr8722]

This is my first episode with you. I love What you make. The appreciation you both show for the other ones projects is really nice to see. Very inspiring all over. I watch from Denmark 🇩🇰

[@woolandwishes]

Thanks so much Helle! 😁 And thank you for spending time with us! 💕

[@wildcottageknitting]

Great to catch up with you! I’m always inspired by both of your makes- today especially with Kirsty’s handspun and Tracy’s Slip Crazy Shawl. (Ps that zebra yarn would be SO amazing!) I have a question- I’m just casting on some leg warmers (shorter ones, kinda more like ankle warmers,) would that count as a foot item for the KAL? 😁 Lol, it is nearly the foot 😉 If not, no worries 😊

[@woolandwishes]

Thank you so much! Oh yes, leg warmers can be included in the KAL. Can't wait to see them! 😍

[@lynnmcentire4014]

There is a product called Thimble It I use for my sharp needle points

[@woolandwishes]

Thanks so much Lynn! I will check that out 😁👍

[@wildmagicyarns]

Loved the new podcast - I was hoping to knit a Nightshift with handspun too. Do you have any pics of the yarn you spun for it? My puppy did the full on head tilts at the dog chewing noises 😂

[@woolandwishes]

Thank you! 😁 I will add a photo to Instagram soon of the finished shawl and then the individual yarns I used. I think I also showed the yarns individually a few episodes back too. Ah your dog definitely knows the sound of a tasty treat being chewed 🤣

[@wildmagicyarns]

I found your KZbin channel on my New To You feed ❤ I have been on a bit of Ravelry & KZbin knitting hiatus. I’m starting back by finishing a couple 2019 KAL WIP’s 🙄 PS one has to watch knitting Podcasts while playing with wool 🧶 🥢

That's great to hear you are picking up some forgotten wips! I hope you have lots of fun! 💕
