    I love John! He is lovely, And I also think that one of the reasons I love connecting with you as I feel like you are a kindred spirit. I too love teddys and can't resist them to bring home sometimes as well. Aside from his tail, his face is too sweet for a Tassie devil but his colour markings sure are that of the Tassie devil yes.

    What a memory! Campbell's Soup had a bright red and white tin and had two little children smiling enjoying soup in all their adverts. Enjoy your new kids! Your beautiful bear looks like he might nick all your honey and jam when no one is looking. You always make me smile. Thank you for the joy dearest Paula.

    I have just finished watching every single one of your videos up to this one, since finding you in March! Loved them all. You are a joy to watch. I love everything that you knit, crochet and sew. I have many of the patterns you have or are stitching in my Ravelry and can’t wait to get to them all Some day. The Battenberg Blanket is looking amazing! I also consider myself a beginner crocheter and wonder if I can stitch those little squares. James is going to love the Sock scrap blanket. He will be able to see all of his socks on one place, LOL Now on to watching the latest video about a new baby ❤️

    I was practically hysterical when you said, “they could have just climbed the ironing pile” 🤣🤣 I love John (Charlie) Carson, what a sweet face, I couldn’t have left him behind either. I knitted a blanket with my left over sock yarn held with an off white 4 ply, I love it! It’s great when this stuff makes us happy. 😊 Thanks for a lovely video Paula. Take care xx

You always cheer me up, so thank you for your brilliant blogs or vlogs??😜 Your new bags look beautiful, and I’ll try my best to get one. Your shop always makes me nervous, everything sells so quickly, great for you, but nerve wracking for me!!😂 I don’t blame you having to take Mr Carson home, he’s adorable! I have a few of Charlie Bears teddies, they’re all so lovely. If you’re ever in Cornwall I really recommend a visit to their shop and museum, it’s amazing, You won’t leave there empty handed, I promise! Thank you as always for a lovely video. Love you lots xxx

    I’m pretty sure it’s a Campbell Soup Kid. They used to advertise having soup and a sandwich for kids lunches when Campbell was putting out new soups way back in the late 50’s early 60’s , post WWII. Carson or Jon the Tasmanian Devil is gorgeous, he has such character in his face. I think he’d look great in an Aran jumper or a nice red one. All your projects are coming along nicely, I love the pink one, it will be lovely in the summer. Take care, be well. 🥰🙋🏼‍♀️

    Did you ever think about tracing the pieces for Uncle Simon and re-creating one for yourself? You are such an excellent sewist I would think you could do it and then you would have an Uncle Simon again. It’s a matter of finding the right type of fabric in the right colors. The internet has it all. I loved Uncle Simon and miss seeing him on the podcast. Your bags are wonderful. Sadly, I live in the US so they get a bit pricy for me. But I do love them. I have enough project bags so I can not justify the purchase. Besides, by the time I get to your shop everything is always gone. That’s good news for you. I always love your podcasts and watch them as soon as I see they are up. Enjoy your start to summer!

    Gday from Tasmania Australia. 🇦🇺 your bear is very cute and cuddly. A lot different to Tasmanian devils in the wild! The Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) got its name from early European settlers who upon hearing mysterious unearthly screams, coughs and growls from the bush decided to investigate further. Finding the dog-like animal with red ears, wide jaws and big sharp teeth led them to call it "The Devil". It’s a lot different to the cartoon character Taz too. I definitely wouldn’t like to try and put a jumper on one and I would be keeping an extra careful eye on your Guinea pigs when they come into the house too😊

    Not sure whether this message will get through as I’m a bit behind with watching stuff at the moment, but I’d like to ask about your colour changing/sock blankets. They look so effective and I’ve also got loads of sock wool left over. I haven’t crocheted for years and would be very grateful for a quick description of how you start them off and then the stitch you use. Still looking forward to each and every video!!!

    I definitely couldn’t leave John Carson behind either. We like a bear in our house too, in fact a house isn’t a home without a few bears. We had our daughters cat to stay last week and I showed him a video of Ian with his bell. I have bought Sherlock a bell too. Well he was very disinterested and looked quite alarmed when I started singing. I think it’s fair to say that although he’s altogether fabulous he’s not as talented as Ian (bell wise)

    Hi Paula. It's a lovely cardigan in trans flag colors for "George". Well done 👍. Curious with a rather dumb question, but how did you come with your company name? I'm sure it's simple. Just not everyone uses an abbreviated letter for a name usually with children mostly. I'm sure you are Mrs D. But did people call you that beforehand. Just being nosey and if too personal I would respect that for an answer. Take care
