What a great idea to turn a Miraculous medal or a Saint medal into a stitch marker!

I love the idea of using Saint medals for stitch markers or progress keepers when praying for specific people. That is such a special way to pray while knitting.

Hi Stephanie. I love all of your projects. The socks are so pretty, but I especially love the yarn you’re using for both of your shawls. I’ve been making socks from yarn leftover from other projects. This is a result of “fluffing my stash”. 😊

Such a lovely episode! I love, love your shetland shawl! I've almost bought the book about 6 times because I want to knit one too. The colors you chose are beautiful. That pair of Opal socks in the Pretty colorway is gorgeous! Blue/Orange is one of my favorite color combinations especially for autumn. I might have to try and see if I can get a ball of that colorway. I've been looking at Wise Owl Knits patterns here recently. She has a free hat pattern that I think I'm going to knit. And I do love the look of her Wildflower pattern! It would make the perfect spring sweater. Yay! I'm so glad you like the yarn I sent! I am really looking forward to seeing your scrappy socks. I think it'll look beautiful! And yes, I love finding frugal things at thrift stores! And now that I've found that yarn at my thrift store, I look thoroughly every single time I go. This is the first thrift store that I've found actual fancier yarns at. If you haven't watched it yet, the Julian Fellows Dr. Thorne miniseries (based on the book by Anthony Trollope) is perfect knitting tv too! I've watched it probably 6+ times. It was on amazon prime for a while, but the last time I looked it wasn't up there anymore. You can buy it on KZitem which I might do if I can't find an inexpensive dvd copy. I really love it. It has a very sweet ending and only some mild old-fashioned period style drama that doesn't drag out forever. I'm the same way about all my tv/movies. At this season, I just can't do the crazy stressful shows! I want sweet, calm, wholesome things. 😊

Dr. Thorne is one of my favorites!! of course I've seen it!! I used to subscribe to britbox every summer because I had a little more time to dive into some cozy tv. Last summer I found a box set of BBC miniseries at a thrift store - I'm still working my way through those - it was an amazing find!

Life has been busy here with appointments for myself and youngest daughter. She has special needs and requires around the clock care. But I've been in a knitting mood for the past week or so. I've made a few dishcloths and knitting a couple of hats. I've also crocheted a scarf too. The socks you showed are beautiful.

Yarn cozies will be known henceforth as Yarn Yoga Pants!!! I will have to tell the story of my baptismal name sometime. I didn’t realize I was named after a saint until recently. Thanks for a calm and peaceful podcast Stephanie.

Hi Stephanie! This was a great episode, and there were so many things I wanted to comment on. Yarn yoga pants: I love that! I’ve been calling them “yarn underwear” or “yarn Spanx” thanks to a friend. 😂

I’ve had to put down knitting and do all the saints costumes 😅 after I’ll have to finish my daughters flax light sweater for her birthday and then if I have time, I want to crochet her namesake doll but we’ll see. That may be a Christmas present

Hi Stephanie! Your Shetland Shawl is looking so good! (I think that’s so funny that you’re named for Stephanie Powers 😂, I love her in Hart to Hart, it’s such a fun, cheesy 80’s show.) Keep going on that Yuletide blanket! I’m really enjoying your big projects (vicariously, because I don’t have much knitting time right now.) I can’t believe how close we are to Christmas already! Thank you for mentioning Libravox-I’ve never heard of it! I will definitely be checking that out. 💕

I have so much I could say! Great episode! I also love the idea to have a Saint stitch marker for each child and my husband to encourage prayer while knitting their project. Great idea! I am looking forward to hearing about your sour dough in a future episode. I started a starter in the summer, although it is dormant now and in the refrigerator. I only have to feed it once a week. I decided to move it to the refrigerator because we were having fruit fly issues then and I found one or two in my starter, yuck. The discard in the refrigerator was clean so I kept that. Anyway, I never ended up making bread, but in the summer I made pancakes, crackers, brownies and maybe muffins with the discard. It was a lot! I know you can throw it away rather than use it, but I was trying not to do that. I just can’t figure out how I will keep up with that along with knitting/crafting and all of the regular stuff I have to do. It honestly seems impossible - something will have to give. And there are so many other things I want to have time for, like some embroidery projects! So little time, as always!

oh I know the fruit fly sour dough issue well!! yuck! I do want to share more about my sourdough journey - it's had it's ups and downs. Don't worry about keeping up, just keep rotating projects and little by little they will finish up!
