A few people have been asking about the beautiful top Sophie is wearing & if it’s a pattern of hers. In answer to your question: - yes it is one of her own designs - it’s as yet unpublished - Sophie will be issuing a tester call soon so keep an eye on her Instagram page
You two are so cute just chatting away together. So happy you shared with the world your friendship. Your podcast is a joy to watch. Hope you continue knitting and supplying us with entertainment and education in knitting!
I definitely enjoyed your chat! When Sophie starts her podcast, I will definitely watch it. Well done! Your sweater is looking amazing. I just wish that I could wear sweaters...I am too hot all the time. Can't wait to see it finished, though!
Absolutely loved this episode! I felt like I was right there with you! I sometimes find these zoom call type videos really awkward to watch but your set up was perfect and it felt like I was sitting with friends! And thank you for asking my question! Xxx
What a lovely episode, I have been doing a PhD as well, so I do relate to the fact that you have to learn quickly (I did a scientific one so I could not knit at work, not really a good combination with a lab ;-) ) love the chat and love both of your accounts
Really enjoyed this 'natter with...', really easy listening :) if it helps, my favourite questions and answers were more of the behind the scenes stuff, it's really interesting to hear why designers do what they do and the reality of it. Thanks for putting so much prep into the interview, it showed in the quality :)
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! yes I’m the same, I’m very nosey and when someone lets me in to behind the scenes I absolutely love it haha.
I'm really glad you decided to start this chat/interview series, I enjoyed this instalment greatly :) i follow sophie and it was so nice to listen to you guys talk about knitting!
What a lovely episode! It is always fun to learn about new designers and the process behind it all. I really love Grace from Babbles Traveling Yarn Podcast. If you could have a chat with her, that would be great! Thanks!
Loved the episode!! Remind me again the top Sophie is wearing? I think I missed it. It’s beautiful! Also I cannot wait for you to release that pattern you’re working on, probably one of the most beautiful sweaters I’ve ever seen!
hello! thank you so much, I have popped a comment about Sophie’s top as a pinned comment. Oh wow, thank you!! What an amazing compliment. I’m in the process of getting it graded so it should be ready to test in the next few weeks 🥳
Loved this episode Lizzie! Sophie was great! It looked like you both were having so much fun and it really felt like we were all just sitting and having a friendly chat and getting to know you both better was great. I can't wait to see who you interview next :D
The Knit Purl Girl would not be alone in not needing a measuring tape, Chevyrell from Chevyrell's Stuff has a 1 inch tattoo on the inside of one of her fingers so she is never without one! It was a great a mix up to have the Natter! I enjoyed it and I think its a great once in a while mix in.
Hello! I’m so glad you enjoyed the chat wit Sophie. Wow, I feel like am I the only knitter who doesn’t have a built in anatomical tape measure somewhere on their body? 😂
@@HiveKnitsNatters I'll admit I don't have one, but I am super tempted to measure my thumb now just so I DO. That wouldn't be weird at all, right? The chats are a great way to break things up and also give a bit of a break to yourself as a podcaster. Keep that dreaded "must have a new FO every episode" thought at bay. I am like Sophie, I am lucky that I have the time at home to be able to knit a lot that doesn't seem to be an issue for me, but I definitely felt that way on the first episode or two of my own and it's not a good feeling.
I really enjoyed this episode! For me as a non-native speaker it was sometimes a little bit hard to understand the exact words because of the "non-formal" interview style, but I loved the whole atmosphere and the giggles and I think I got the message 😊 so please keep doing this (besides your regular episodes of course, I'm burning to see your current projects!) 💕💕💕
Hi Kathi - so glad you enjoyed it! yes sorry perhaps we spoke a little fast at times, but like you say I think that was part of how relaxed it was. do the subtitles help at all? I know they are a bit useless sometimes
