I've always watched other people's videos while I work and think I have something a little different to offer. I hope to amuse and inspire. There won't be a definite program outline and the topics may be varied. Lately I've been decluttering my sewing room and making things from my huge hoard of fabric. They can be found on etsy www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Astitchinthesky . Our knitting group meets every week. We first got together in 2006. Quite often not everyone can make it. I did the first video for that reason. The group loved it so I thought I would share it here. A few minutes of random knitting group news every Friday for a bit of light entertainment. Enjoy

Great Interview Annie & Neil!! loved the history connection with the Civil War. My family had just gone to Gettysburg, PA this past weekend! (Battle in the Civil War) So this timing was spot on!! 👍 Thanks for all the research, enjoyed the history.🇺🇸 🇬🇧
Hector is now getting a pair of trousers. He is going home next week as his time with us were his summer holidays and it will be September 1st next Sunday. I have promised his bear mum he will return home now the summer is over. Hector has had a grand time. 😊🏡
What a lovely summer holiday he has had and the perfect house guest he has been. It's so kind of you to make sure he has a cosy winter 🥰
A lady walked past me whilst I was selecting miniballs at the Wee County Yarns stand and I heard her say, “I wish I could knit”. I did wonder what drew her to a wool show but well done for being curious. ☺️
I hope she learns then .
Nutter
Thanks ?
I also ply by winding my singles off onto a ball winder: but that’s because I only have the one bobbin. ;)
I got myself in a tangle after that lol. My wheel has 3 .
First! ❤❤❤
🎉 sorry I don't have a prize 😂
@@astitchinthesky4212 haha I just NEVER get to be first. I’m always a day late and dollar short!
Yay you did it , and it's free
Great episode. Love seeing the refurbished wheel
@naryaknits wasn't it great, really good to learn all about it too. Bill did a good job.
Wool is Rowan summerspun 🧶❤️
Lovely news. Love the sweater on you and the baby sweater you’re knitting. ❤
Thank you! 😊
A cover woman and now you are on merchandise!
Well just the one 😃
Love your shiny gold cardigan!
Thank you!!
Oh I love the dinning yarn that you’ve done. I thot it was Wenleydale - hair sheep. Obv not! Looks great. Thanks for the update. ❤
It is Norwegian fleece. I found it good to spin.
Thanks for the update! The twang of the wool? Maybe you have to strap it to a couple china cups? The ring of the china cup was wonderful! Love the sweater you are wearing! Great job! ❤
Thank you, illl keep trying the twangs, maybe one day it will happen . I'm really pleased with my top it's been on the needles for quite a while .
I adore pink & orange together too!! 🥰
I'll ve doing a project those colours someday.
@@astitchinthesky4212 I have the yarn…waiting for the right project 🤗
Ah see i need to find the perfect orange.@sandraponte3121
Ugly cats in the window!
Of that the Apple pie colour way it's very gender neutral as my mum is making a baby cardi in it . Works up beautifully.
Yes it is knitting up nicely .I think she will like it when it's done .
I'm a new subscriber and really enjoying your videos. Is it ok to ask whereabouts you are from originally? You sound so much like a friend of mine from Lancashire. I am originally from there, but we moved over the border many years ago. Thank you for your very entertaining podcasts. 😊
Hi Valerie, I'm glad you like my podcasts. I grew up in Oldham so you're right .
@@astitchinthesky4212 ah I thought so. My friend is also from Oldham. Amazing. I'm from the Fylde area. Thanks
That is amazingly spot on. Its a long time since i lived there .@valeriemoorcroft6838
That yoke and easy sweater is so interesting. I like the pattern. I just discovered your etsy. ❤
The kit meant anyone could have a fancy cardigan . It's a good idea isnt it but nowadays we like to knit the tricky bits and hone our skills. Well done on finding my shop. Etsy are rubbish really for promotion.
What an awesome coat!!
I'm not praying for rain but it would be good to test it.
Your cover photo is really great!
Thank you 😊
Your shawl looks spectacular against the window with the light shining through.
I might try to drape it there for youtube
The hat suits you. 😊Love your cardy. ❤
I had fun in that shop
I love the garden shoes - maybe a hot glue gun would fix the hole in them or some cardboard? 😂❤
The old ones have finally gone in the bin .
@@astitchinthesky4212 awww! Do you have any Wellies?
Yes I have wellies, but I garden in the butterfly shoes now and they have no holes😊
Milly is soooo cute! She walks wobbly. 😊 Oh that’s a cute story about Marie- I’ve looked on her IG and saw pix of her smiling … it was quite shocking and she looks so much more friendly. Her deadpan look is unappealing to me. I refuse to buy her patterns for just that reason. 😂😂😂 ❤❤ Thanks for the update! 😊
Millie is very cute for an old lady. She copes with the wobble. Marie was very pleasant on her stall I suppose as I hadn't bought from her she wondered if I was just accompanying one of her top fans . I will knit one of her fair isle patterns sometime.
Kitty! ❤
I love your Pinafore. Did you sew it without a pattern? I have one that’s lovely old cotton flannel material. ❤ Your fast speaking I wasn’t ready for! 😂😂
Hi moira, yes I just cut the two top squares then used the length that was left for the skirt . There was enough for two small rectangles at the sides too. The top is lined first then the skirt gathered and joined to the top.
Love that you cam hear the birdy in the garden 😍
Your ugly cat shawl is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you
Oh I love your garden tours! Looks like mine a bit- but yours is more tidy. I have problems keeping the weeds at bay.
I assure you mine has weeds. Plant more plants in the way that works.
@@astitchinthesky4212 Great idea. I have a shady part that is really easy to keep weed free and it’s because there’s lots of plants. Oh and I love the shawl from Neil!
We should have swapped projects to make who’s who? a bit trickier. Got a daffodil to show off next week. 😊 The white hydrangea and ceanothus are impressive. Good boundary cover. Love the garden tours. ❤️
@Sneaky-Mouse-Knits I keep trying to propagate the hydrangea and promise it to people. It's slow to get going but I have little ones on the go. Looking forward to seeing your daffodil. 😂
Beautiful garden!
Your Ugly Cats Shawl is stunning! 😍
Thank you
Love the shawl❤ it will be so warm
Its pretty luxurious thanks .
Hello! I have been enjoying your videos, you're so cute and love your accent, And I was gonna ask you about your apron dress/pinafore, it is absolutely adorable, I love everytging about it including the pockets!! and you made it!! If I only had an ounce of your talents, 😣. Your shawl turned out great 👍, looking forward to the upcoming pictures 😊
Wow thanks! The pinafore is really quite simple. Just a series of squares and rectangles from a few measurements. I just had fun with pockets and decided on them. I love my shawl, I'd never have got it all done if I didn't. I haven't seen the photos yet either. Can't wait !
We have those little spiders over here also. They’re fun to watch. Ugly cat shawl is very nice. I saw pic with Neil! I’m glad you got together! ❤️🧶
We are so impressed by the shawl Annie. Equally love the cardy. Maybe I should knit silk pyjama skirt with the Laine du Nord! H 😃
Imagine how snug that would be !
Oh that was cute your dog going out to meet the seal which disappeared quickly. Love the top!
Yes it was! A special moment
The shawl is beyond words beautiful. ❤❤❤
Even mma fighters are impressed 😄
That shawl is very lovely- I love the colors you knitted it in. I would probably go for the smaller one. Thanks for mentioning me. I’m glad you liked my idea of the pj skirt. ❤
Thank you. It's an enjoyable knit.
Annie, your shawl is gorgeous❤
Thank you
Hahahahahaaaa🦈🦈
You have a fleece! Very cool! Love your sweater! Love Leicester wool it’s soooo soft! ❤
I am a novice spinner though I think I do alright. Do you spin?
Oooo a hedgehog! I love them! I had two African hedgehogs years ago which were much smaller than your garden one. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I loved your garden tour - very lovely! 😊❤❤❤ You do well with the names of plants. My Lilacs are about done also. I look forward to your next video. That shawl is more like a blanket. 😮 ❤
I've always loved our hedgehogs. Too often they are squished on the roads. There's been no sign of Derek since. I'm now casting off my shawl so will only have some ende to sew in. Guess it won't need blocking lol
@@astitchinthesky4212 Yeah blocking it will make it humongous-er!!! 😳🤣😂
Your garden is an oasis. ❤
It's not huge but every year we add plants and it gets better. My daughter loves gardening too which is great.
Hope you feel better soon. Your shawl is stunning❤
Thank you! 😊
Your Ugly Cat Shawl is amazing!!
Thank you, I'm not sure how I'll use / wear it
Glad I finally found you.
Great hope I can entertain you a bit .
Laughed out loud at Andy's box 😂
I used to have an aquarium so I enjoyed the pond talk!
I'm glad someone did ! Aquariums are probably more tricky aren't they .
Your Ugly Cats Shawl is huge and beautiful!
Thank you, I'm loving it .
ANNIE THAT SWEATER!!!
I often like Martin storey's designs. spirals are tricky to knit. Not intuitive at all 😅 . And thank you. 😊
❤
I love that last orange color! I want a whole sweater in it. 😍
Is that the bright one or the subtle one?
0:57 Stitched together. Puff stitch flower blanket looks lovely but detailed work. Going to make a black cat, possibly some Halloween bats. 🧶😀
Wow yes stitched together is too much . I think hedgehogs would be fab.
