Your new knitting project could be used to time your pancakes! Arne's is 18 stitches. Loved the video and scenes. Thank you.

You are an absolute delight,,, such a beautiful walk..thank you for sharing ❤️

I so enjoy your videos. Whenever I feel down, lonely, or just need to unwind, all I have to do is watch any one of your videos and calls right with the world again. Love you, kate and all your kitties and Eileen. Stay safe and well.

Having grown up in Michigan, you can tell when it’s cold when the snow squeaks when you walk across it😍

Those lines you see are pressure cracks. If the ice gets thicker you will see the ice raise up there. It has to do with ice expanding. Very common in colder climes. Sometimes you can hear them expand.

By the way, love the snow angel...if I tried it they'd find my frozen body in a few weeks because I can't get up without help anymore!!

It was a perfect Snow Angel. It made you happy and it made us happy. Can’t think of anything more perfect than that.

Loved it all but especially the ice and water at 6:45. We should all enjoy life enough to make a snow angel ❤️ Thank you Kate.

Love you Kate, you are so charming. And you look far taller than 5'4". It must be your large, beautiful personality.

And thank you Anna for doing the filming! You are both treasures!

If we stop loving snow we have lost the child in us. I never want to be that old! Dear Lord,let me enjoy what you have made. I enjoy the winter season best

You encourage me to continue being young at heart! Like wine, getting better with age!

I was curious about those lines, too so I Googled and I think it's something called finger 'rafting.' The article I read said, "Finger rafting occurs when thin ice sheets floating on water collide and push over and under each other alternately, creating what scientists describe as “fingers”." Lovely walk, I enjoyed it. Also really loved the music. Thank you, Kate.

This really is your little piece of paradise isn't it Kate?? No matter the season, it's just so beautiful.

November 25 2022: Anna is such a very beautiful daughter joining in on your walks and sharing such a beautiful scenery of the snow. Yes, I enjoined the “walk” with both of you.

And now it's HOT in mid July here in the U.S. South, and I've drifted back to this lovely video to see the cool snow and the cracked ice and listen to the mesmerizing music. I don't know why this particular video is truly a go-to video for me, when I want peace. I'm knitting away still on my mitred square blanket here on my couch, dreaming of snowy weather and jackets and winter.

I love how you surround yourself with what makes you happy and joyful x thank you xx

I could watch everyday just sitting. You are beautiful, You made me laugh when you made the snow angel.

I sorted out all my wool ends a couple of weeks ago and am now knitting Frankenstein socks, who cares what they look like under trousers and I made it super easy for myself by doing an after thought heel. Half way through my third pair with the fourth in my sights. Gather those fragments!

I love making snow angels as a child. 👼

I just Love your videos when you're outside showing us your Beautiful country, with such Beautiful music.

We are having lots of rainy cold weather in SE Tennessee. To fill time while knitting I'm watching old LHH videos. On one you made a 70's dessert with ginger biscuits and flavored cream. My sweet grandmother made the same with thin chocolate cookies. She'd make individual ones standing up. So good and great memories. Thank you

Thank you, thank you, thank you...from Florida where I miss snow season every year. And especially, so glad you made a snow angel. You fill my heart!

One is never too old to make a snow angel. Isn't it gorgeous to see geothermal at work. How the inner warmth and the outside temperatures make things crack and move. Just like our own tectonic plates we live on move. Love the snow, what worries me is the difference in temperatures, from minus 20 to plus 18 degrees Celsius in one week here. But my snowdrops survived the pressure of all the snow! That's a plus, Kate.

Thank you for talking about the Spoon Flower company. I looked at their website and have fallen in love with their designs. Ordered fabric to make two sofa pillows. Love your shows.

Thanks you so, so, so much for the snow video. We don’t get snow where I am in Australia (Melbourne) so I LOVE any snow pics/video. It’s so magical and special to me. Thank you lovely Kate and gorgeous Anna xx. I’ve knitted a blanket like that and love it - so much fun to do and no stitching up! Win, win!

Oooh, I made these mitered squares years ago. I have some leftover sock yarn bits and some hand spun yarns in a similar weight. Most of its varying shades of white. Guess it's dye pot fun time again. I have plenty of food coloring and vinegar and it doesn't need to be light fast or wash fast. So since it will not matter if the colors fade and get muted over time, food dye is quite alright to use. I just need an extra small blanket for a shoulder wrap. I really like the shades when you deliberately break the black dye and a color way I call tequila sunshine. Make a light yellow orange dye bath the color of orange juice. Start dyeing the yarn once the yarn has taken up enough dye to color the yarn but still plenty left, drop in red dye here and there randomly Not too much but just enough to variegate the yarn. It gives a nicely orange/red variegated yarn that just pops. You could do the same thing with acid dye. There are a few color ways I dye that way. I have a lot of white sock weight yarn I bought and knit up a lot of white socks. However, in a wool sock, I much prefer a thicker sock. I like Lion brand Fisherman's wool and knit up thick winter socks for my winter boots. They hold up well to washing and when they get worn out and felted a bit, I recycle them into hand warmers by cutting off the toe and making a thumbhole. So I skeins and skeins of white sock yarn left. I will hit the bargain bins at the local yarn store for odd skeins of sock weight yarns. Since it's modular, if a yarn isn't quite the same gauge it is easy enough to fudge it and as long as the end result works, a few stitches more or less or rows It will only matter to get the same gauge on the beginning edge squares. The rest can be adjusted on the fly. I believe that is what I did before.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Kate, for sharing your world with us...........

Such a calming video. The walk was perfect. The knitting will be great on the lime green couch. Take care my friend and happy Valentine’s Day.

Winter is my favorite time of year. Due to he weather changes, it is not as cold and a lot less snow if any. I am in Pennsylvania, USA.at the Great Lake. Just listening to you walk through the snow and hearing the crunch brings happiness to me.. thank you

Such a beautiful walk. We, here in the Pacific Northwest of Washington state USA, are also enjoying snow for Valentine's Day. 13" of snow is pretty rare for us. The music you chose for video is so appropriate for the footage. Life is sweet when you let it be. Thank you, Kate, for being a part of that sweetness.

Kate, I so enjoyed the snowy day walk and your beautiful chickens. The one eating from the container gave me a chuckle. So many good memories for me of enjoying a winter day.

I do what my grandmother did with her tiny bits, cut them up into 6 - 8 inch pieces and lightly snag them on the tree bark in the nearby trees or the branches of our winter bare bushes. Come spring you’ll see brightly colored bits in the birds nests in the area! Neighbors remark on the quirky nests and wonder how that happens. I’ll never tell. But nice to know it brightens the birds and the neighbors days.

I really enjoy your walkabouts Kate. Beautiful, peaceful and mesmerising vistas. Thank you so much. 🦘💚

So honored to see your wonderful home place and angels.

I just assumed those lines were from a loch (or in this case, lake) monster having his head out while he swam around. Beautiful video, Kate.

The snow looks so beautiful and there is nothing better than wrapping up warm and snuggly and walking in crispy crunchy snow, well maybe with a nice mug of hot chocolate too. Loved your snow Angel, do you know I’ve never ever made one of those, even though I’m in my 70’s next time we get snow deep enough I’m going to do that, God willing. Lovely video Kate, stay warm x

We knitted what we called a "buddy blanket" in our knitting guild. Each member added squares using up their scrap worsted weight yarn and passed it on to the next member. When the blanket got to a certain size, we crocheted a border all around, and then,donated them to charity.

I admire your ability to make a snow angel and then get up. I'm older than you, but for a long time now I've not been able to get up once I go down. It is bitterly cold here in Missouri USA. The weather man said today that we may get to -30F tonight. Dangerous weather here. I hope everyone is home & safe.

A peaceful, lovely walk. I especially loved your snow angel...bravo, Kate! Thank you as always.

Snow days are the best!!! Sending hellos from snowy Canada. We have 35cm of snow coming by tomorrow for us❄ Lovely to see the fur and feather babies 😀 I think the lines are perhaps movement and under current of water. Thank you for taking us on your walk Kate 😇 and hello to Anna. Taking a moment to enjoy the simple things prove to be the most joyful.

Well this was just lovely. (The best way to enjoy the snow, in my estimation). Thanks for sharing! A snow angel! Lord If I got down I’d never be able to get back up!

I totally agree with you on the knitting. I always pick easy garter stitch patterns. It's more meditative than having to think. I could do complicated things...but just like to keep hands busy. I'm glad to hear you say this also.

Beautiful when I just get to look at it, but don't have to be out in it or drive in it!!! Thanks for the walk in it.

We missed out on the big snow amounts here in Wyoming, but dang, it hasn't warmed up to zero for 4 days! I've been feeding the poor birds constantly and staying by the pellet stove! Heat wave of 25 above tomorrow! Send that polar vortex back where it belongs!

I love coming to visit ...you bring such joy to me!!! I loved the walkabout...the knitting squares...and the beautiful snow angel. You are so loved.

Make a nice quilting pattern. Stay warm Kate!

Kate, thank you so much for the Valentine's day gift of your beautiful video...

You've thrown down the gauntlet now..... Will Arne and Carlos be tempted to make snow angels?

Thank you for taking us with you. Thank you for calm enjoyment of beauty everywhere. Snow is deeper here than cats are tall, so kits cant go out to play, and its too cold, too windy for their little ears. Neighbor's horses have open barn but prefer to romp about with manes flowing, looking like shampoo commericals. Lime green is a good color for a couch. I'll bring my quilting and some brownies to share.

Beautiful to look at though it's good to be in a warm place -numbers remains me is like been in the bottom of the freezer i am enjoying your scenery it beautiful enjoy 😊😊

Love you, Kate. Love the snow and cats and quilting, too!

Thank you Kate. A beautiful little while of peace. 🌺🌸

Loving it Kate... that takes the stress away! Wonderful music too...thank you...keep doing what you do xx

Love a bit of domino squares! What larks!

Great winter walk....my husband really liked the snow angel (me too)! Thanks Kate....

We in Canadian got a couple of weeks mins. 21c and _17c day. But the wind that's what you can't get out of. Thanks for the good winter pictures. Me as a srn. Being staying in. Thanks for your weekly visit. Stay Healthy Anita

I LOVE ❤️your snow angel, Kate. And I live in Florida so I don’t get to see this kind of day so thank you. Tallahassee, Florida

😂 love it ! I too like to walk in the snow…. It is so peaceful…

Knitting, cats, and snow: Is there any better combination?

Good morning from down under, its 8am here slow morning no school today so just had my porridge in respect for your snowing morning, usually have fruit first thing here in summer it a cool 15 degrees Celsius out side we have had a rather cool summer only a couple of days over 40. For someone who has only experienced snow melting as it hits the ground I appreciate your snow walks and angel, thank you Kate. More fruit cutting for drying, cut figs before breakfast now some pears and apples, this year we have an abundance and because of a fruit fly outbreak in our area we are unable to give any away so drying it all for use later in the year, apricots, necterines, peaches and prunes all finished now so onto the next lot.💞

You are never too old to make snow angels.

Yeah I know where you’re coming from re liking to have a lot of projects on the go Kate. I seem to have an issue with finishing things though. I’ll get there 😁

I am so thrilled I just happened upon your channel as I was sitting here, all comfy and cozy, in our home in Alaska, knitting 🧶 a pair of baby socks for a great nephew that will be making his entrance into the world mid April. Thank you for sharing your home and the beautiful walk around the lake. I may have to see about making a snow angle myself! We certainly have enough snow ❄️

Hello, Kate. Nature is so beautiful. West coast of Scotland only got a wee bit of snow, but my daughter over on East coast, and up north, got heavy snow. I love making these memory blankets with my sock scraps. I use circular needles. I have made a double bed size, and four small lap blankets. I gave away the small ones to family. That shows you how many pairs of socks I have made! I am addicted. Myself and daughters have small feet so always loads of wool left. And husband has smallish feet as well, ha ha 😀 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌈

Those melted lines in the lake ice were VERY cool!

WoW What a great snowwalk it remembers me of my favorite snowmovie the snowman of Raymond Briggs the boy That make a snowman that comes alive . Also lol with you making a snowangel have a Nice day Kate groetjes van Marijke

Oh to live were you live Kate , Thank You for that 🥰xxxx

I'm from the Piedmont, or central part of N.C. and we've had no snow. I've so wanted to see a pretty snowfall, but considering how severe the weather is in the rest of the U.S., perhaps I'd better be thankful for where I am. I learned to knit bedroom slippers, in our summer church camp, when I was a girl. I haven't knitted anything since.

🤗 So good to spend time with you today Kate. Here in East Texas we are having another very bad winter storm with very cold temperatures. This is our second bad storm of this winter! We just don’t have winters like this! Supposed to have awful cold temps until Thursday. Take care.

Beautiful snowy. Here Southern California no snow but nice sun warm weather.

The snow is so beautiful thank you for showing this God bless you

Hi Katie & Anna:-) Loved the snowy walk. Bet you & Anna had a hot drink when you got back home. The chickens & Eileen are looking well:-) Loved the snow angel. showing a very agile side to you there Kate. Tfs. Hugs to all the pets. :):):):)

Hi Kate enjoyed a walk in the snow and your snow angel , will have a look at the knitting squirrel , I like just to have busy hands as you say nice to see you , thank you , Jean X

You made a snow angel! I still make snow angels!!! Because why not?! LOVE it!

The lines in the lake in the earlier part of the walk remind me of cranial sutures and the soft spot in a baby's skull. Guilty of being a medical worker! No snow in Tennessee, just gray and gloomy. Thanks for "sharing" your snow!

It’s fun to see people get excited about and enjoy snow. I’m from Canada and we are just warming up (-24 C today) after two weeks of -30 to -40 (colder with wind chill). Not so much enjoying going on. 😀. Definitely can’t leave your boat in the water over winter! I do have the same reaction as you to the first snow every year tho. TFS

Love your walk in the snow. I live in Birmingham, Alabama and even a half inch of snow throws us into a tizzy and will shut down the city for three days. Needless to say we don’t get much snow in Alabama.

What a lovely peaceful video. You're so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the country - thank you so much for sharing with us town-dwellers who are desperately missing wide open spaces!! I love your slow knitting project. At the moment I'm making wash cloths from leftover cotton scraps. As you say, knitting to keep the hands busy and the mind quiet :)

Somehow ended up here today. Glad I did.

Such beautiful nature scenes. Love your snow angel. Love your animals. So pretty.

It’s always such a delight to ‘catch up’ with you, Kate. You know, you can never stop doing these vlogs now? 💜 Sending you warmth from Arizona, USA.

Thank you, Kate! I am spending Valentines Day and my anniversary alone. You have brought my soul relief!

Love you kate! I feel like we are right there with you!The snow is beautiful....

I love your snow angel! I haven’t made one in decades. I’m enjoying your visit to the lake in the snow. I live a little south of Lake Erie and out winter starts in November and ends in March so we have 5 months of winter and I’m tired of it now. Come soon spring!!!😊

I love your spirit! If I had been there with you, I would have made a snow angel also.

I am knitting that mitred/Domino blanket right now, using the medium leftover yarns. So much fun!

Admiring Agnes' blanket, beautiful. I made a scarf knitted in the round with all the little balls of left-over space-dyed sock yarn......it became rather long. But it makes me smile all winter.

Here, today, it has been -22°c. (It feels like -33°c with the windchill.) we have been in an arctic freeze for nearly two weeks now. I think the winter scapes are incredibly beautiful but I am looking forward to warmer weather next week where I can resume my walks and enjoy the scenery around me. I also found those lines on the lake curious...it’s funny how much we can’t see when looking from the surface. I LOVED the snow angel - good on you for taking the moment, and thank you for sharing. Looking very much forward to Part 3. Video. Xoxo

Dear Kate, I've come full circle now. This was the first video I saw of yours and I've been hooked ever since. Any woman our age who still has the joy and whimsy of life in her to lay down in the snow to make a snowangel is the kind of person I'd liked to know! So I went back to the beginning of it all and today I watched you make a snowangel again! So many things I saw in past videos I loved and thought about leaving comments but didn't know if you got new comments on past videos much less have time to read them if you did. But at any rate, I've enjoyed them all and I've had a wonderful time visiting The Last Homely House. Thank you for inviting a kindred spirit from the Blue Ridge Mountains of southwestern Virginia and her three cats in! I wish you every continuing suceess and am looking forward to future visits! Thank you for all the time and effort you have spent bringing pleasure to my world!!!😺

It's so beautiful, d whole scenery...I've never been to U.K so I wonder at d beauty of nature during winter... love d joy expressed with such enthusiasm in ur outing...tq Kate for this scenery,truly enjoyed it as much as u did n admired ur quilts especially...though I missed d very 1st podcast u started....

Loved the snow film 🎥 xxx looked even more cosy in your lounge when we came in from the ❄ snow ❄ 😀

I use these needles too! To keep the stitches from falling off I glued a fancy bead on one end! Love them

Oh Kate...what a lovely soul you are. Such a joy to watch and listen to. I've not been able to do them for many years. I'm now disabled so wheelchair and crutches are my mode of getting about. I'm still able to make quilts by machine and hand applique. I no longer can knit or crochet. Too much arther and ites... Anyway keep safe and well. See you on the limegreen couch. Cold and snowy in NH.

Super snow walk loved it poor Eileen no swim for her think she knew you were going to her swimming lake 😉

I too wondered about the lines on the lake. Lovely walk and snow angels today. Thank you. The mitred knitting is on my list to do. I too like a project that doesn't require counting or fancy stitch patterns for the most part. I use cotton yarn and making dish clothes when I get the itch to knit. Currently working on an EPP quilt with Millie Morsels, quilt blocks with the Lockdown patchwork project, Dear Jean blocks with Truelove quilts for you and the my Hometown block party. So the knitting needles are quiet for the moment. As always love to share a bit with you. My Sunday treat. Thank you.

We live on a lake and the water still moves under the ice. The ice heaves and pushes together, creating cracks and water comes through those cracks. By now the ice on our lake has grown to about 18-20” in thickness. It’s amazing when it’s in the first stages of freezing. At times it sounds as though a jet is taking off. The movement and cracking do some astonishing things. Lovely snow day you’re having!

Beautiful episode Kate ..... I so look forward to listening to you ......... thank you again x

Another wonderful video. I live in Kansas, USA, and we also have snow with minus temps and some wind. The music with this video was so relaxing and soothing which I love; it did not send me to the moon as some music does in videos!! LOL. I find the lines in the top of the lake interesting as well; like you, I assume it has something to do with the temps and the various depths of the water, Mother Nature is a wonder unto her self. Thank you so much for doing your videos; they are always a bright spot in my life, especially with all of the Covid restraints and living alone. Enjoy your Valentine’s Day and happy knitting............

I enjoyed the walk with you and Anna...loved the Snow Angel.
