Best interview ever!!!! Wow! Hazel Tindell is in Bermujan terms is “a hammer!”. That is the highest compliment and honestly from one (isolated) islander to another, she is truly fabulous! Such familiarity and franknes, honesty and ease. Amazing! Loved every minute. Thank you! ❤❤❤

What a lovely interview! I love your quiet interview style and Hazel is a marvel. Thanks both.

G’day, I Thoroughly enjoyed their interview with Hazel. She’s so easy to listen to, her knitting, stories of Shetland, her bursts of laughter just joy. The interview was well prepared, just great. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

love how kind and easygoing she is. and she keeps her garden "tidy-ish". amen sister!

Thanks for a great interview and both of you for giving us a peek at the history behind your drive to knit!

Watching Hazel’s fast fingers as she knits is mesmerizing

Very nice to see these older interviews. Hazel knitting speed is amazing. TFS! ❤

I love Hazel's optimism and her humility.

Loved this interview! Hazel is amazing

Thanks for this lovely interview. I love Ms. Tindal's pragmatic approach to knitting.

I just love Hazel! What a beautiful inspiration! Thank you!l xx

This was just a wonderful interview. All the questions we at home wanted to ask. Well done. I teared up a few times. I would love to see the Shetland Isles and also other parts. The explanation of the poverty was enlightening. Mine and my husband’s ancestors escaped that poverty to Australia. We have grown Merino wool for generations and all I want to do is knit Fair Isle and Ganseys. Just a note on knitting with Alpaca and the drape. I’ve knitted the same child’s jacket in garter stitch 5 times. Herdwick was fabulous. I used Alpaca in the latest with a silk kid mohair filament as well. It has held its shape. Drape is such an unknown quantity. Absolutely loved the interview and I’m so jealous that I can’t meet Hazel. National Treasure. Love from Australia 🇦🇺

Thanks Hazek Tindal is such a lovely person, it was nice to discover more sides of her.

Enjoyed this interview very much. Always love anything with Hazel. You are doing a wonderful job with these interviews. Barbara

It wasn't until about the 3rd piece of lace I'd knit that I read it was supposed to be hard. I'm self taught, my grandmother, Großmutter, had arthritis bad enough that she couldn't actually show me but she gave me her needles and a book. It was the old book that had knitting, crochet, tatting and embroidery. I learned them all but the greatest gift from that book was that if you only worry about the stitch you are doing, one stitch at a time, you can do anything. I've put needle's in my grandchildren's hands, gotten them started so it feels familiar then told them to continue from a book or pattern. I'm available for assistance or advice but you have to learn to read directions, read a graph. That's the reason lace wasn't difficult because you can only knit one stitch at a time. That and with lace you have to accept the magic. Until it's blocked it looks like you've knit it with your toes. The pins and wires come out and TADA! It does wonders for the ego. The talk of cardigans in this video made me think of steeks and how much I want to take the leap. What stops me is dragging out the sewing machine or having to crochet them. Would it be a grave mistake to just make a couple runs on each side with needle and thread, nibble some crackers to fight the urge to throw up, then cut?

Wow! When i first started knitting, I found straight needles heavy so I would rest the end of my right needle on my hip - a natural for a knitting belt which I just found out about today, 3 years later. No where near as fast and I have to watch every stitch being made. Hazel is a gem!

Thank you for the great questions for this guest. And she was so generous with her answers.

Oh my word can she knit fast. Thank you so much for sharing this. Really enjoyed

Thank you for a great interview!

I love Hazel Tindall.

Thank you both for this interesting, insightful & inspirational interview. I too hope to visit Shetland, one day when we can travel again.

This was a fabulous interview with Hazel. She is such an interesting and talented lady.

I knitted my 1st cardigan when I was 7yrs old . It was bright purple synthetic yarn. It was awful but I was proud of it. Now I love knitting aran and Fair isle.

LOVE this interview ! What a down to earth person some people are once you have an opportunity to meet them.

Wonderful informative interview.

Thank you so much girls, i really enjoyed this video. I'm a Norwegian 🇸🇯 so funny to learn something new and you make me feel so understod, that we have the same "illness" beeing knitting. Thank you again 😊

What a lovely lady, so humble, great interview. Thank you. ❤🎉😊

I am going to try that bookmark. Ms. Tindall as given me the courage to try fair Isle ☺. I prefer to see the right side too!!

First time I hear about Hazel Tindell. I absolutely love her accent ❤️

What a great find for me. I've just got back into knitting, what a great interview 💙 I love your shawl, do you have a link to the pattern?

I really have to learn from Ms. Tindall 😍

Wow what a knitter😬that was a great interview.

Life is all too short the think about silliness, I agree.

What a LOVELY woman!!!

About 18 minutes Hazel says something similar to what my Grandmother always told me "You'll never see it on a galloping horse".

When I grow up I wanna knit as fast as her

Is Hazel knitting while you are interviewing her?

As she is doing the interview it looks like she is knitting.
