Ruth thank you for sharing your trip....you have a beautiful and loving family, you are very blessed. Ireland is just so pretty, I love seeing pictures of the countryside

Thanks for sharing your pictures of Ireland. I live in the States currently. My ancestors come from both the north and south of Ireland. Love the shawls!

Ruth, your photos and video were perfect 🥰 I really enjoy seeing places I've never been and you all looked like you were having so much fun. A low key vacation is the best. Your Ballyclare shawls are beautiful. I will look forward to the pattern release. Susannah

Another great vlog Ruth. I absolutely adore the shawl you’re wearing and that beautiful Regia yarn in those stunning colours.….so altho I do more crocheting than knitting, I will definitely be buying the ‘Ballyclare’ shawl pattern when it’s available. I want that yarn in the same colours too….Am so glad you enjoyed your holiday in Ireland….it looked like you all had a great time. You are a beautiful knitter and so inspiring. Thanks again for sharing with us…take care x x x🥰

Enjoyed that so much ,,,,with UR chat and pics of the trip away!!! Love UR shawls,,,, Have a good few😃✈😶weeks,,,, Take care,,, Elaine 💗💗🏡

Your simple vacation looked wonderful and relaxing, the best kind in my opinion. I loved seeing a few sights of what I've always been told are the 40 shades of green of Ireland 🇮🇪 💚🧦🧶

I think you did a fine job of videoing. Ireland IS beautiful! Your mom's blankets were so beautiful. I see where you get your talent.

Thank you for taking us on your family trip. I had a wonderful two week road trip driving all around Ireland a few years ago, loved the people & country side.

Thank you for sharing the footage of Ireland. I loved it and seeing your family. You look refreshed. The shawl you are wearing looks wonderful. Judy, Nelson Bay, East Coast Australia.

Your shawls are lovely! I'll keep my eye out for the pattern 😊

Loved the footage of Ireland during your time away. I think you did a great job😊. Loved your shawls as well...both great colors!

Look at the gorgeous red hair on that young man!

Loved your podcast as always and so lovely to see the big smile on your face ☺️

Awe Ruth love the wee videos I’ve never been to your home country it’s. Absolutely beautiful xxx

Ireland is my favorite country to visit.

Nice podcast! Beautiful shawls and glad you had a great vacation ❤

Loved the video you took while on vacation. Thank you!

Love hearing about your holiday!💛💛💛

Thanks for the company! I had an hour before I had to leave for my 3 month CT scan. I cast on a shawl while we chatted

Thank you Ruth for a lovely drive through Ireland. Loved every minute of the drive and the entire podcast! Your shawls are gorgeous! Thank you so very, very much for knitting Ballyclare. I decided to knit a matching cuff for Ballyclare, so was knitting on that as I watched. (The cuff will be included in the pattern.) Ballyclare will be published in Ravelry on September 8. With a very nice discount, I might add. Love and Irish hugs from Canada. ☘❤🍁

Beautiful I would love to visit there sometime 😊

So happy your vacation was a success. Funny, I have had those same experiences when trying to take a picture os a sign while traveling. Rain, wind show and once even a buffalo trying to photo bomb me. Not to worry I jumped back in the car and patiently waited for him to pass.

Sounds like a lovely trip. We aren't anywhere near fall here in Texas, although today was only 100°F. It's been triple digits for more than 3 months. It's hard to think sweater weather.

Love your ballyclare shawls, Ruth. So glad you had a lovely vacation. As always I enjoy your podcasts.

So wonderful to hear the joy in your voice! Simple vacations can be the best!!

Lovely podcast, and insight to your trip back home to Ireland x

Your shawls are beautiful Ruth and those in the book, well wow I aspire to be able to make one of those. The yarns you showed have got my spending juices running lol. We were away with our church for a long weekend this weekend and got plenty of knitting and nattering in so thoroughly enjoyed myself as well as good fellowship. See you next week.

Thank you for another wonderful podcast!

I could listen to you chat all day - I love the NI accent as it reminds me of my grandad ❤He was from Belfast and my mum who is now 87 was born there but came to England age 4 in 1940. I have visited NI and the south and the scenery is breathtaking it certainly is the Emerald Isle ☘️

Looks like a good holiday to see family and relax. The Sonas yarn is gorgeous.

Love the podcast.

Hi Ruth ovely to see you ❤x

You always out a smile on my face. I love the little old lady bank. 😂

Thank you for sharing your holiday trip and makes. Lots of fun family adventures. Looking forward to your friend's pattern release. All the best. Jane

That Sonas yarn looks yummy Ruth! I'm not surprised you snapped it up! Looking forward to the Ballyclare shawl release! ❤

Thank you for another enjoyable podcast Ruth. Really enjoy them. 🩷

So happy everyone had a fun time! Your yarn is beautiful! I do especially like your Ballybay shawls! Always enjoy your podcasts! All my best!

Lovely podcast as always. Ireland looks a lovely place, my maternal grandmother who passed away when my mother was a child, came from Munster, l keep promising myself to go, one day… I recently purchased a book of shawls that l thought you would love, its titled, The little book of Haps, and its a collaboration from Kate Davies Designs, l have picked one for this years advent calendar, looking forward to Winter already! ♥️🧶

Thank you so much for sharing your holiday with us. We’re not going away this year so it was wonderful to share yours! Your knitting and souvenirs are awesome ❤

I was vacationing vicariously through you, Ruth. Thank you!

Hi Ruth. Great to see you here in good oul Norn Irn! Glad you all had a good holiday. I love the colour combination in the blue Ballyclare shawl you were wearing. The colours blend so well together. Thank you very much for another cheerful podcast. x

I really enjoyed seeing your vacation photos and video. Such a beautiful country! I also have Celiac disease so I feel for your husband' and his difficulty finding food that he could eat. It can be tough for us!!

We rarely eat out so it is usually ok but I was really surprised in a big town.

Glad you had a great vacation. The shawls are beautiful!

Sounds like you had a lovely family time. Making lots of memories. I miss those times. Mine are grown with families of their own. And although we do do things together. It is different xx

Thanks for sharing your holiday. Looks like you all had so much fun. Yarn colors and projects are gorgeous as always ❤

Ruth I enjoyed your video ! Thanks for sharing . I have always wanted to go to Ireland and England ,maybe someday. Your shawls are beautiful !!

I’m so pleased you all enjoyed your holiday. The shawls that you’ve made are so pretty.👍😊🧶

Lovely to hear about your Ireland trip. The rocking chair lady looks very familiar - I think my mother had one the same.

Ruth, I don't knit but I love your podcast. You make me laugh😂

@@ruthlovestoknitpodcast I like hand sewing, cross stitch and small items mainly and I am actually knitting easy wee pencil cases for a mission group to take out to Romania. Nothing complicated. Keep the podcasts coming they're a blessing. Ann

What a treat to find another visit with you! ❤

Fabulous podcast. Love the knitting lady (s). Glad you enjoyed your holiday. I made some socks from Sam and Dani’s Fearless yarn. They are so soft and comfy. > . Xx 💐

Lovely to see you this afternoon Ruth. I’m so glad you and your family had such a fun summer. I have never been to NI but a visit to my mother’s relatives in Islandmagee is definitely on my bucket list.

Always a fun vlog! Nice to see you again! My great grandfather Michael Comerford was from Kilkenny! I have always wanted to go visit!

Lovely podcast x

I thought you said, "Get out of the moat" which fit with the blue green colors in the yarn.😂😂😂

Believe it or not we went on a prominent river cruise on the Rhine River last year and the cruise line weren't the best at GF either! I managed but it can be very dicey sometimes.

My daughter was in ireland in 2021 and she brought me back a skein of Sonos. I am trying to make socks out of them as to me its quite scratchy.

I LUV the description of your plane ride! I think there'd be a real problem if they decided not to let the ladies knit on planes in Ireland!!!! 😅 With those long metal needles to hand, what hijacker would even dare consider taking over?! ❤xo

Yes! If they allowed needles ...problem solved.

Ruth, i have a question for you. Were you traveling with Ryanair going in and out of Ireland? I'm Canadian and once in Europe we will travel with Ryanair and rules are very different than with our Canadian lines mostly concerning luggage abord the plane. Love your podcast and good humor, it's always a pleasure to knit with you. Have a beautiful day

No Air Lingus. My husband regularly flies Ryan Air. They are super strict about size and weight of hand luggage. They will make you check it in and charge you if it is too big or too heavy.

Thank you so much for having taking the time to answer me even if it's not knitting related. Of course, we paid for 20kg luggage being abroad for 24 days. With that we can bring what the call a back pack. So small, 20-25-40cm. That's crazy. No purse, no knitting bag😢

Do you have a link to Ballyclare shawl? Is it available yet as I’m struggling to find the pattern.
