    What a wonderful place you have moved to now. I live on the edge of Dartmoor, where you said you had moved from. I love your dear Jack, and I can see you do so much, and how much he loves you back. What a wonderful thing, to be able to walk in the beautiful countryside around you, with him by your side for company. We are still desperate for rain here, only had a tiny bit, so we still have a hose pipe ban. Lovely to see what you have been up to, and all your wonderful art work and knitting you do. Blessings to you both from West Devon, and Jilly & Madge, the black rescue greyhound. xxx

Love your ramblings through bucolic country with your little fur buddy, your artisanal adventures and creative knitting and fibre projects and their processes. I love to see how you draw cute little sheep working in a mill. Wow. Kudos! Thank you for sharing this little glimpse into your neck of the woods. I will certainly look up past episodes.

You are such a lovely person, and you and little Jack - and the frog in your pocket :-) - were making me smile. Also the scenery on your walks plus the soothing music and your voice are so calming, I leave the episodes feeling that the world is a better place because people (and makers) like you are in it and creating/capturing such beauty. Thank you.

    I do not need another project bag, but I do want this one. Your sheep are so very cute! I love at the end where you hope our projects are going smoothly. I appreciate the well wishes but it's a little late for me; I've been ripping out part of an afghan border and picking up 300ish stitches while I watched your show today. I've not gotten even 1/2 of the stitches back on the needles, but I am getting there. Looking forward to you next episode.

    Labvakar, good evening, I am from Latvia. And thanks to you I found out the beautiful Latvian shawl designer Inese Sang. When you mentioned Madara shawl, I immediately felt some Latvian connection with it. Do you know what is Madara? This is a name of a woman. But it's also a name of a beautiful wild white meadow flower, which at least in Latvia blossom around a midsummer. 😊

I have the opportunity to learn and have been given the option to borrow a wheel, a larger one. I have little space in my home, so did wonder if I get Hooked, I might want something smaller. Cheers.

    I’ve noticed an audio change in this video. The audio seems to only come through my left headphone ear but music comes through both?! So weird! It seems as though there’s been a dual setting applied and not mono but I’m unsure and no expert. I’m wondering if it’s just me or if this is happening to others too and if there is anything I can do about it? I love Katie’s content but I am very sensitive to sensory input and it makes it difficult to watch🥹 thank you 🙏
