You are a wonderful knitting podcaster! Thanks for sharing the article info about knitting - stress release, joy, and sense of accomplishment. This is definitely how I "wind down" and love that knitting is part of my life. Thanks also for sharing the farm shop - so amazing to see. You do a great job at filming - a pace slow enough for us to appreciate the various items. Plus I love that they had a sitting area for loved ones to hang out. ;) Maybe a visit some day.

It was so nice to travel and shop vicariously through you! I'm a new knitter (since last fall) but it's addictive for those exact reasons: the tactile feeling of making something, the repetition, the fact that you can vary the levels of challenge, the long-term nature of the project with a distinct end goal of wearing or gifting the item, it's all a perfect de-stressing craft. And getting to watch what advanced knitters like you work on makes it even more fun!

So nice to see the footage of the G-Uld shop! I am going in June for their 4 day dyeing workshop. I am a Canadian who lives in the states but am of Norwegian descent and so we (me along with my sister and daughter) are going to go to Norway and Sweden too. I am sure I better bring the old suitcase in a suitcase as I know I will be coming home with a pile of yarn. It is always so fab to buy the yarn while traveling and then remember the trip when you wear the item. My last trip I was in Scotland, England and Brussels and am working on a second vertices shawl and a sweater with the yarn I bought at the Perth Yarn Festival. My husband is coming back from Paris today, and you know he is coming back with yarn! Guess I better work on the Nutiden Versal sweater I am knitting him today! Always look forward to your videos. I live in Michigan, and every year we have a huge fiber festival called the Michigan Fiber Festival. They have animals, workshops and vendors. It is so much fun! You would love it.

Amen to the idea that knitting reduces blood pressure! My daughter was born at 26 weeks (under 1000 grams) because I had extreme Pre-Eclampsia and HELLP syndrome. Seven years later when I got pregnant with my son, I vowed to keep my blood pressure down by doing my favorite thing - knitting! I religiously took the time to calm myself, sit, and knit for several hours each day. I kept my blood pressure down and he came at a full 40 weeks! These days (17 years later with two healthy children), I'm fully addicted to knitting and now I know why - all those accomplishments! :) Love your podcast and am happy to vicariously "buy" yarn by watching you - even when I'm not buying it!!
