Completely agree- Natasja is stunningly attractive! And I think Andrea pointed this out in a very classy and flattering way. ❤

My name is Vikas. I am a citizen of Asian country India currently resident in that country. I never knew that a youtube channel related to 'knitting' existed in this world until I came across this youtube channel 'fruity nitting' of yours. I am watching almost every youtube video of the youtube channel 'fruity knitting' as and when I come across them. I am also simultaneously trying for a full time job. I will subscribe to this youtube channel 'fruity knitting' of yours whenever I find the time to do so, provided that I feel confident that the creator(s) of this youtube channel uploads videos regularly on this youtube channel. I am learning a lot of life skills from the videos uploaded on this youtube channel which otherwise I would have found difficult to learn. I request the creator(s) of this youtube channel to upload videos of knitting work on this youtube channel regularly. Once again, thanks a lot for the knowledge you are imparting from this youtube channel.

I love the chemistry between you two!! As a language major, I find the mix of accents as intriguing as the knitting itself. Yours is the highest quality knitting channel I've found. I'm a happy Shetland patron.

Knitting and enjoying my afternoon tea, I thought ‘it would be so nice to have an episode of Fruity Knitting to watch.’ Two minutes later I got an email alert; a new podcast! And with Natasja Hornby! Wow! Thank you for your wonderful podcast. 😊

Wait, wait. Plastic bottles are made into all kinds of fabrics that are called 'fleece', but I have stopped buying and wearing this kind of fabric because, when you wash it, it sheds plastic and that plastic adds to all the other micro plastics in the sea. My understanding is that 'eco' is a misnomer for this kind of product.

At least here in Sweden, I have also heard from multiple sources that the recycling of plastic bottles is one of the few somewhat functioning systems, so by taking plastic fibers out of the system, more plastic bottles are instead made from crude oil.

I never get tired of your wonderful show, thank you so much for bringing us so valuable informations and beautiful footages

I love your birds in the nest. Alan's designs are so sweet! And you do it so beautifully. Your extreme knitting had me smiling all the way through. My first thought was I'm just missing the smells of an autumn walk but then I saw your birdies in the wild and I laughed out loud. And then Jack trying to climb the wall but settling for a doggy "Moonwalk" dance. I think this may be one of my favourite extreme knittings for the sheer joy it exudes! Pop Bottle Sock Yarn...now that's intriguing! Natasja's photo explanations are so simple but so clear! Such a wonderful interview in which her design process is explained. Loved it. Definitely a 5 star episode! Thank you Andrea! HUgs

Haha, I like the doggy Moonwalk.

Andrea, so glad you are doing so well. Andrew is watching over and is very proud of you I'm sure. Like the co-hosting with great knitters of the world. Look forward to every podcast

I started watching Fruity knitting about four months ago when I started learning knitting, and I was searching in your old videos and watch them during working on my projects, I found that your videos are sooo inspiring with your projects you share and all amazing people you interview, Thank you❤

Again a very interesting episode 😃

Thank you so much for the knitting photography mini-class, that was so helpful. I learned a lot! This is why I love Fruity Knitting episodes; even years later I can still learn so much from them!

Thank you so much for introducing me to Natasja's work. I often struggle with finding patterns that fit my body shape. I'm built much like Natasja and SO value a designer who models her own work and designs for a shape like ours. Even better --- I LOVE her style/aesthetic!

One of favourite knitwear designers and so charming as well. Great episode, thank you! And I think all of us viewers here in Canada are very excited by the East Coast coverage.

I loved this peek in to the design process of Moonstruck Knits. What a humble classy talented lady! Great podcast Andrea and Natasja!

One of your best episodes ever! Natasja is a fabulous and knowledgable designer and a charming lady 💗

I was so pleased when I received the notification that there was a new episode of Fruity Knitting to watch while knitting with my morning tea. It was a beautiful episode, thank you. Now I'll continue catching up with previous episodes.

I love the Circe sweater that Natasja is wearing. Fabulous textures.

Seeing Natasja and her mum knitting together is just wonderful. Another great episode.

I’ve had the luck to create many wonderful knits, but I think the Yara shawl is my finest creation to date. It is so intricate and lovely. Not so very difficult to make, but really an object that makes me so proud, and inspires a bit of wonder in those who see it.

Natasja is such an innovative designer. She presented workshops in Austin 2 years ago. Sadly for me, they were all booked up. But I do remember when we all gathered to eat, she would come in every evening with about 2 other gals, and with them all wearing the same designs. It was fabulous! Thank you for this interview so we can learn more about her design process/construction.

Thank you for another great episode. It was great seeing Natasja visiting you and hearing all the great details about designing and taking photos!!!! Such an informative show!

A wool retreat on Texel is so fitting: it is the island of sheep, and more specifically the Texel sheep breed (that we call Texelaars). In spring there are thousands of lambs in the fields! It was a friend on Texel who got me back into knitting. I just wanted to humour her at first, but now I'm all in, and I just added some designs from Natasja to my ravelry queue :-)

Another fantastic episode! Andrea, I always enjoy the music you choose for the different segments! How fun to have Natasja on the couch with you when her episode aired!! Thanks for all of the wonderful content. My Patreon membership is SO WORTH IT!!

Natasja is one of my favourite designers. I've knit several of her stunning designs and have several waiting to be knit. It was so nice to see you together and very interesting hearing some of her thoughts both on successful photography and also her design process. Thank you for another excellent episode.

Another jam-packed episode full of inspiration, and Natasja Is an absolute genius!!! ❤ Kim

I cant believe this is the first time I am seeing Natasja's patterns. They are beautiful! I cant wait to try and knit one of those beautiful mosaic shawls. Thank you for highlighting this wonderful designer!

How lovely to see Natasja in her Letho while knitting on my own! Great episode…your birds nest turned out wonderful Andrea…great job!

Wow! This takes knitting to a whole new level. How exciting, new inspiration.

Hi! Natasja is by far my favourite designer ❤ The constructions are so different compared to others. It is always a pleasure to knit some of her patterns.

Both of you looking amazing. Thanks so much for such outstanding episode 🧶💞

This episode was outstanding, with the detailed discussions with Natasja Hornby. The content of Fruity Knitting is par excellence. I'm off to look at Natasja's portfolio on Ravelry.

This is one of your standout episodes! I loved Natasja's photography tutorial, especially placing the light source to the side of cables and her opinions about editing. Well done!

I'm so glad you did this interview, as I might not have found Natasja's patterns otherwise. Her innovative approach to shaping and construction is fascinating to me, as both an engineer and one who sews (and has dabbled in pattern drafting). The segment on photography was also very helpful.

Natasha is amazing. A wonderful episode all round. Thank you.

What a glorious interview with Natasja Hornby!! I am in love with her and her work as you seem to be Andrea! So wonderful of you to share!

Oh that was so lovely. Natasja is so talented. As a sewer I can really appreciate the skill she has put in her designs. Big fan of hers and her designs and after this interview I’m just fangirling even more. Thanks for another wonderful episode 🥰

Great podcast as always. Sunday morning,, cappuccino and my knitting and watching this ❤

Such a nice treat to watch Fruity Knitting on a Saturday afternoon (to reward myself for completing some fall gardening chores!). Thanks for this very charming episode.

Stunning designs, gorgeous countryside, perfect music, and an hour and a half of joy! Thank you! All the best coziness to both of you as winter awakens again.

I am so thankful for this show! As I am celebrating Thanksgiving with my family for the first time since my MIL passed away, I was thinking about this show as I know she would have loved it. This was another excellent episode 😊

Thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Thank you for introducing me to Natasha amd Moonstruck knits. A new favourite.

Great interview. What a talented woman!😊

The photography hints were so interesting & helpful

What an inspiring episode ❤️ I've learned heaps from your YT channel. Thank you from Scotland 😊

As always loved your podcast, but this time was special with Natasha.I was inspired by your Corbis sweater Andrea and finally started knitting on it , very slowly, because it is all charted and every row is different, but I enjoy it.I was born in the Netherlands and moved to Canada 41 years ago with husband and 2 daughters.Now in my late 70, love knitting and still learning, though my Mom was a fantastic knitter and I learned from her.For sure Natasha is my favourite knit wear designer.🧶🥰🇨🇦

Hello, Andrea and Madeleine. Thank you for this lovely episode! Natasha’s shawls are gorgeous. Andrea, your nest of birds is so sweet. It was lovely to see the walk about with Jack. The interview with the Legacy Lane Fibre sisters was very interesting. I’d love to try some of their sock yarn. I also enjoyed your interview with Natasha in the Netherlands… she’s a very talented designer❤️

Thank you! I am exactly under the arm and thinking about this - love it ! I love well thought out clothes to knit and sew

My instant reaction at seeing the Yvonne MT shawl was «hardangersøm». The apron on Norwegian Hardanger bunad is made with hardangersøm, the same edge as the shawl.

I have just come across your podcast and I love it! You are so inspiring. I am an Australian living in England. I have always wanted to knit fairisle but have not had the courage. Your work is amazing. Looks like I need to binge watch this weekend. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

What a wonderful episode; thank you. Sarah, NZ

Well, what an absolute delight is Natasha. Beautiful show thank you Andrea. And the girls at Legacy Lane were fascinating.

Excellent episode, amazing patterns!!! All of them are fantastic, but I really, really like the Corbis Swseater. Thank you for the fun episode, looking forward to the next one 😊🧣🧶

Wow! Natasha's shawl has totally inspired me to knit an asymmetrical shawl - with the mosaic, too! I'm also like you Andrea, because I don't wear shawls, but this one might change all that for me.

Natasja is easily one of my most favorite designers ever. Her designs are always guaranteed elegant, intricate, and magnificant. If you feel like a bit more challenging knits, I definitely recommend Natasja. ❤

So many gorgeous patterns ❤

Excellent content!!

Another great show!

Thank you for all your beautiful videos and thank you for the suptitles too! I love your knitting.

Thank you, Natasha, for teaching photography tips for knitting projects. Much appreciated!

Wonderful episode. I’m looking forward to trying the Legacy Lane yarns and knitting one of Natasja’s designs in the future. Thank you, Natasja, for the photography tips.

Wonderful,thank you so much ❤

Natasja is one of my favourite designers. I have knitted many of her mosaic shawls, some more than once. Such elegance. Thanks for having her on your channel.

Love this show. I think Natasja is my new favourite designers too Andrea. I want to knit so many of her designs. I love the sweater with the collar and I have just discovered that the wool she uses is in a knitting shop her in British Columbia! So excited. I would also like to knit the sweater that she designed that you are knitting and the one she is wearing as well.

Thank you, ladies, for another amazing broadcast. ❤ The whole episode was engaging and I was just spellbound listening to Natasja's descriptions of each of her designs. She is an absolute delight. 🙂

I have been hooked on Natasja's designs for a while but now I'm hooked on listening to her voice! What a warm and, dare I say, sexy timber! I'm doing a deep dive into her Circe sweater this winter for sure.

🤗This was so good to watch it and to be with you both with my ¸'knittingstruggle'! And now i got my knitting mojo back :) again. Thank You !

Wonderful to have an episode with Natasja and to see her new design. I recently finished Anthe and it gives such a great result without much technique really.

I loved this podcast!!! The interview with Natasja Hornby was very interesting!

In addition to your deep and connected interview with Natasja, I enjoyed the video of your hike in the Odenwald. Episodes 126, 127 and128 all have content from Canada, where I live, and I am delighted you had a chance to delve deeply into our East Coast's fibre arts scene. Next time you're here, though, we need you and Madeline to do some serious exploration of the hikes and history here on the East Coast. I could go on for a long time, but if you have only one chance, and you thought Unst was spectacular ... Cape Breton. Highlands Parkway.

i am newly inspired by shawls!!!! just beautiful. And I never really knew how to wear one... now I feel I do.

Loved this episode. I'm a huge fan of Natasja, and it was lovely to see her ' in person'. My Lunae shawl gets compliments all the time😊.

Wow i love her, shes my New favorite and I may even follow the pattern 😍 I Wonder if she needs New testknitters....

Such an enjoyable afternoon knitting and watching your podcast. Natasha is such a fantastic designer, I definitely want to knit one of her designer shawls. ♥ I enjoy taking pictures of my finished objects so Natasha's tips will be a big help. KUDOS to my fellow Canadians at the Legacy Lane Fibre Mill ! Recycling plastic bottles into knittable fiber is a wonderful discovery! ♥

Gorgeous show.

Thank you Andrea for a great interview with Natasja Hornby. I have the Letho and Anthe patterns and look forward to knitting more of her patterns. I enjoy hearing all about her knitting journey and how she designs her patterns. I hope to visit Amsterdam in the future and spend time with a dear niece and her family.

I will be checking Natasja Hornby designs, they look great but also fun to knit ! Thanks for this lovely episode.

One of my very favorite episodes! I adore Natasja’s work! I learned so very much watching this. I happily took advantage of the Patreon discount to add to my Moonstruck collection! Now I just need to finish them all!! ❤

Natasja to my ears, has a similar tone to her voice to your sister in Australia it must be comforting. I admire her great focus on construction, a monochrome type of sensibility without the distraction of colours. Relaxing, committed and inspirational. Jen x

That shawl is amazing

Wow! Just gorgeous!

Yet another fantastic episode. You keep introducing me to such amazing products and designs, and such talented makers and designers. The hardest thing is narrowing down what I want to do, because I want to knit them all. I always love your extreme knitting segments, too. What could be better than knitting in such beautiful settings? Though I worried their fingers were getting cold in that one. :D

Thanks for the coupon code, but it seems that I will go bankrupt anyway 😂😉because Natasja has so many wonderful designs that I must buy many of them. My all time favorite designer used to be Hitomi Shida, but I think that Natasja comes as number one now. I really love her esthetic! 🤩

I'm SOOO into the KAL. I've only done one Moonstruck top--D'aisi-- but have MANY items in my favourites. Especially shawls.

Thank you!

Wow her sweaters and shawls are like art! The directionality creates movement and keeps the garment visually active without seeming busy. Well done.
