Another great episode. Just love the Lindal Sjal and the mosaic blanket. China, a surprise, an Texas have the most sheep.

@lilliput_makes

I think the country that has the most sheep is New Zealand. I visited there when I was small and we went to the AGRODOME where they did a presentation all about the different breeds of sheep in New Zealand. They also sheered a sheep and I got to get up on stage and bottle feed a lamb. It was very fun and educational!

Stunning shawl xxx

@sharons5723

First time watching and I really enjoyed your video. I recently discovered the Junction Fiber Mill yarn and podcast, and I love the story of how the two mill owners met and started working together. So nice to support small US businesses. Also, I love your Lindal Sjal and the mosaic blanket.

@HesperidiumStitches

RU-vid recommended your podcast and I enjoyed it.

@danadanabrown

My guess was Australia but the google answer surprised me. It shouldn’t have :). Fun!!!

@jerrypeters4264

Had no clue to you trivia had to look it up

@stadknit

The Lindahl! 🤩 Australia has the most sheep, I think. And maybe Montana in the US? Don’t ask me why I chose that state, as I know absolutely nothing about Montana. 😂

@bonniejune6814

Enjoyed your episode. They have all been great so far. The scarf is spectacular! Also, just ordered the Life in an English Household. Thanks for the suggestion.

@kimu.6227

My guess was Australia and Texas. So half right? I really love everyone’s cast on rules. Mine is one small project (hat/scarf/sock), like something I can fit in a small project bag. One large mindless knit, something I can watch videos to and just zone out but is larger (sweater/blanket/shawl). And one “I’m flexing my brain” knit. That knit that gets me out of my comfort zone and makes me learn and focus and count and pay attention. Color work is something I’m trying now. Size doesn’t matter. If I get close to finishing one, then I get to plan and buy for the next. I try not to have more than 3 Wips at a time. I get too worried about speed then and lose the fun of just being in the process.

@candacekimball9366

Your knits are special…enjoyed your podcast😊

@urgetocreateknitter3672

Just found your podcast and really enjoyed it! Looking forward to future episodes. Really loved the trivia questions at the end.

@RichMountainFiberCo

I am so happy to have found your podcast! I also enjoy knitting smaller projects. I live in Arkansas and it’s too hot here to wear large knit objects.

@atreiter

Love this podcast channel idea, Love the Lindal shawl, beautiful!!! Like you I'm on a buying yarn "diet" which is NOT working well for me. I'm proud of finishing a few projects from stash, but I fell in love with the Yakima by Plymouth Yarn and just purchased a sweater quantity. So diet starts again tomorrow :) I also love the trivia idea. I think (before googling it), the country with the largest number of sheep is Argentina.

@woldten

Wow! Not sure I can fully express how grateful I am for your kind words and glowing recommendation of my Lindal Sjal design. I'm absolutely in love with the color palette for the one you knit and the way you show it is so flattering! ~ "Like a hug"!!! Thank you Laura!

@bethsaylor5325

Hi Laura. I stumbled upon your channel via the You Tube algorithms and am enjoying listening to you very much. I hope to decide to continue podcasting. Love your mosaic blanket and the Lindal is so beautiful. Reminds me a bit of the Butterfly/Papillon shawl I knit several years ago. My first guess on the trivia question was New Zealand as I heard they have quite a few sheep and either Montana or Texas. Looks like I was wrong on the country and half right on the state. China and Texas ... who knew? I almost always have a rule when buying yarn. That is, I only buy when I have a project in mind. My stash mainly consists of leftover yarn from projects or full skeins when I bought too much for a project. However, my project yarn shelves are full to bursting. Not sure I am ever going to knit all the projects I have yarn for!

@carolyncampbell6149

I’ve just had your channel appear on my feed and I’ve enjoyed it so much, I really hope you continue. The shawl is absolutely beautiful (but I have too many shawls 😂) and the mosaic blanket is something I’d like to make. I’m trying to work through my stash but I knit a lot of socks for my husband, vanilla so mindless, and have just purchased some yarn for those … Thankyou for a really great video.

@birthdaytaco

I grew up in the town where Junction Fiber Mill is; how fun to see you mention that!

@woldten

Looking forward to hearing your next episode talking about Advent Calendars. I purchased my first one a couple years ago, but haven't knit with the yarn yet, so am holding off on another purchase at this point until I come up with an advent design, but the one I did end up buying is from Zakami Yarns. I am absolutely in love with the color palette and was really happy with my purchase. It not only came with all the yarn for the month in beautiful little individually wrapped skeins, but it also included a package of tea, a little picture frame, and a calendar for last year. I actually love the calendar so much that I still have it hanging up and still flip the pages each month - at least the month is correct, and the photos are inspiring! It's definitely on my list of new designs to contemplate! Thanks again for such a great episode.
