Congratulations on the K2P2 Festival! I am so happy for you. I would love to come but I don't think I will be able to travel to the Netherlands this year. Maybe next year if it becomes an annual event. You are such a joy to watch and listen to! Thank you for your podcasts and your lovely way of articulating all of the feelings and thoughts that come to you around your making. I relate to much of what you express. Especially around the way you learn by doing. It is the only way that I can learn and making mistakes is a part of it. I have learned so much from my mistakes. Cheers and have a lovely day.

Another word for ‘cool’ would be ‘trendy’ 😊 thanks for sharing!

Hello Sarah,I am from South Africa and Afrikaans. I enjoy your podcast so much. I also made myself a granny square bag but just ordinary grannies. Love it. Thank you❤

[@catherinecunningham7126]

Your tote bag turned out just lovely, looks like the perfect size for a knitting journal! I would swear that I smelled lavender when you dumped the lavender in your bowl. Definitely wishful thinking! 🌸🌼🌺🌻

[@ludouglas1]

Those little organza bags are perfect for lavender!

[@laurielortz7387]

Sarah it makes me SO happy to hear you talk about “shopping with your values”!!! I try my very best to show support with my dollars. I find that so many don’t understand what an impact this has…..we can shop local, thrift, farmers markets, buy from makers & simply buy less❣

[@janeybeasley9525]

I completely agree with this ❤

[@gizmodog51]

Thank you Sarah for another nice episode. Love the lavender bags; I can smell the lovely fragrance.

[@janeybeasley9525]

I have my ticket for K2P2 yay 🎉 I will be alone, so I’m glad that I know knitters are very friendly people, I’m trying to learn a bit of Dutch before I come but in case all I learn is Hallo, goodbye and please and thank you, I will be the one smiling a lot and looking a bit puzzled as I try to follow along! 😂 ❤

[@nicolaamiliahelms4605]

Good luck for the dutch soccer boys tonight!!

[@bgbaltuth]

I love your style,Sarah. And how lovely your podcasts are. Thank you.

[@nanapapaikenberry8476]

Love those socks. If it's in the fall, maybe fingerless gloves to match.❤

[@janecheesehead3178]

cori eichelberger has a really cute skirt pattern on Ravelry called the Knitwords Skirt that would look great with your socks!

[@user-sr7sq3kh2m]

I am amused at your reaction to the first clue of the MSAL. I had the same reaction. I was not expecting how the tops were assembled in the end. I think I would prefer the motif horizontally in the round if I were making them. They would be so-not-Steven socks. 😆

[@judycleland9087]

Thank that was quite lovely.

[@KariEngblom-Youkey]

Dutch is a hard language...but yarn and knitting are universal languages😄❤

[@debrarodriguezestrada2748]

Nice! I discovered a volunteer lavender plant in my yard! Hope to make bags one day . . .

[@eva_unrast]

Did I tell you, that I love love love, when you mention the good old dutch „hartjumping“ as an englisch „heartjumping“? As I grew up in Aachen near the border to the Netherlands, this warms my childish heart every time. ❤

[@auntylinda7640]

Sarah, you are so comical, you make me laugh. I understand your purchasing values so well. I have a leather sofa I inherited and I am vegetarian! 😅 it is very comfy, but it is cowskin and does not align with my values. I have decided I can have leather things but only if they are second hand😂

[@susanweber581]

Do you play the piano? I am a pianist and have been admiring your piano. Haven't heard of the Murdoch brand before. Love your podcasts.

[@Meredith36]

💚🧶💚

[@dorym8045]

Since you didn’t buy the chiffon bags yourself and are using them for a long term purpose rather than treating them as disposable, I think your values are intact. So don’t feel bad.

[@margarethastings3332]

The little bags were a gift, so it would be rude not to accept them. 😉🤎🤎🤎
