I’ve said it before, Il say it again, your the best knitting blog online. 💖

Madeline looks absolutely stunning in that recreated 1940's dress, such a gorgeous shape. I love seeing all the talented folk you meet on your travels and am really enjoying these travel vlogs. I can't WAIT to see the Kaffe Fassett interview, he is just incredible and looks like he's such great fun to be around with the way he made you both laugh at the end. Fruity Knitting truly is a treasure 🧡

Tha medieval embroiderer has a wicked sense of humor. I am so glad you added her to mix . What fun!

Beautiful landscapes, fun facts, drone footage and Kaffe too??? Excellent hints of good interviews to come!!

As a Cumbrian who has lived in North Wales for 48 years I have thoroughly enjoyed this vlog, watching you drive through the beautiful Cumbrian countryside. I am looking forward to watching your interviews in future videos. You are both so professional and beautiful. xx

Wow,I think this is the most beautiful video I have ever seen and I can’t wait for the interview with my hero kaffe fassett . I have made many of his needlepoint cushions and I use his amazing fabrics for my quilts. The scenery was lovely and the music was an inspiration. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

You are both so professional in your presentation. Such a joy to see you. I’m really looking forward to the interviews.

Jolly content and jolly music. Nice for uplifting spirits and providing inspiration.

It was so much fun to join you on your journey. Loved the yarn event and interviews. Smiled the whole time.

Excellent, a new Fruity Knitting Travel Vlog for my evening knitting! And I‘m really looking forward to the Kaffe Fasset interview.

That photo at the end with Kaffe - Wowzer!! Fabulous. That is a top one for the album!! And I can tell he was great company, what a joy for you both!

As an Arizona quilter, I certainly recognize Kaffe Fassett and Brandon Maybley. I'll be back to watch your interviews. We are watching you grow into the best knitting vlog ever. Every element is excellent. Love it. Thanks for thinking of us as you work. We are thinking of you. You are doing great work. Seek that which is lovely. It bring joy.

These vlogs are such a lovely and interesting addition to your podcast. The quality of your work is amazing. Well done!

Thoroughly enjoyed the video from start to finish. You both did a great job, and look forward to the interviews. Madeline looked wonderful in that amazing forty’s dress, and the choice of music throughout was spot on. Look after yourselves. 👏👏👏

You two are such a pleasure to watch and travel with. I love that Madeleine has taken up Andrew’s penchant for obscure bits of history!!! Looking forward to all your future episodes. ❤️from🇨🇦

These blogs have been amazing! Andrea, you have found your niche. You bring such incredible knowledge of places and areas most of us will never see . You and Madeline are on to something . Loving it!

As much as I love the knitting and traveling, I most love your choice of music. It’s always been spot on. You both look great. Andrew is looking down smiling on both of you. ❤️

Very very beautiful vlog. Such rare pieces of art in knitting and embroidery. Thanks to both of you who made it possible for us to see all this 🙏.

O my word o my word I'm so excited if I'm not mistaken that was Alan Dart.. his knitted toy making skills are amazing.. it was turning to knitting and particularly Alan's delightful characters that helped me through the darkest, saddest period of my life I'm so thankful to him and his creative talent.. absolutely cannot wait for the interview.. thank you so much xXx

Can't wait to see the episode with Kaffe Fassett. Such an interesting man

This was wonderful and so inspiring! I can't wait for the interviews. You're doing such a service for the knitting community and I'm sure there are so many people your work is influencing. Thank you for not only what you produce but for who you both are.

Loved seeing your visit to Yarndale! And, seeing how you film your podcasts--amazing amount of work, you make it look so seamless & easy!

I'm smiling from ear to ear, I'm crying...I'm loving your hard work and savouring every minute. 💝

I loved everything about this travel vlog: the behind the scenes snippets, the sneak peeks of upcoming interviews, the Yarndale interviews, Madeleine‘s burgeoning interview skills, Andrea‘s filming and directing talent, the beautiful countryside, the history of the Brontés, the music just everything!

This was truly amazing and wonderful from start to finish. So much work / detail goes into these presentations! Love the scenery, music choices, history, interview snippets, and all. Looking forward to more! Thank you for taking us along. Take care.

Wow, what a wonderful, long awaited video! Can not wait for the interviews. So jam packed with goodies.😍Love the English cottage gardens and so glad 😊you made it to the festival. What a treat. Thank you Andrea and Madeleine. 🎀

I love these vlogs....an interesting behind-the-scenes look, and the upcoming interviews look amazing. I particularly loved seeing the medieval embroidery with the pot head :D, the 1940s dress, and the knitted butterflies.

The opening drone footage gave me goosebumps. Andrew is getting a huge chuckle out of this in heaven!! You two are killing it!!

Oh ladies, This was absolutely brilliant! You had me grinning ear to ear. The landscape, music and behind the scenes footage had me feeling that I too was traveling and adventuring among new frontiers. The 40s dress is stunning and watching the two of you work out how best to display its beauty was tender and lovely. I hope you both had fun creating such a rich, joy sparking episode! Im so grateful to enjoy your work♥️

OMG! What a tease. You two are doing such outstanding work. Andrew would be SO proud of you both. Can't wait for the actual podcasts. I am a huge Kaffe Fassett fan and am currently working on a Kaffe project and look forward to that special interview.

Oh wow what a beautiful travel vlog and wow you interview Kaffee I’m making a quilt out of his fabric 😊 thank you and Madeline for doing these I for one are surely enjoying them

Whew! What a whirlwind of activity. I hope you got mountains of footage to keep you busy for many, many episodes to come.

Oh, wow! That was a terrific travel blog and oh, I can't wait for the Kaffe & Brandon interview! Mother-daughter team making memories and terrific videos for all the viewers - thank you for traveling for us when we can't. (My special request....please go up to Norway and interview Arne & Carlos...they are huge fans of yours and I love them, too.)

Spending my Friday after work knitting a jumper for my granddaughter and taking a trip with you. Absolutely beautiful landscape and music.

Oh my goodness. That was so much fun! I grinned the entire way through! 😃

I do that EVERY SINGLE episode! I definitely find Fruity Knitting to be my happy pill =)

I'm loving the travel blog as your teaser for future podcasts. You look at the two of you in the car and Andrea looks like Madeleine's sister. Madeleine looked gorgeous in that black vintage dress. Keep up the wonderful interviews.

Madelin is becoming a real model, beautiful! What a lovely vlog and so good to see that you have fun with the people there! And get comforting and loving hugs💜

What an interesting new version of fruity knitting. Love the music at the end. The medieval tapestry was so interesting and the newer takes were cool. Looking forward to the interviews coming soon.

Absolutely loved watching this! The work you do in documenting all these crafts, techniques, skills and interesting people and places is so important. I always love the music as well! Thank you ❤ j xx

These behind-the-scenes peeks are such fun and a very good reminder of how much work goes into Fruity Knitting and why our patronage is important.

Thank you for another vlog! They are so interesting to watch! I just cannot wait to see all the interviews on the show. And you met Kaffe Fassett!!!! You ladies rock it! Exclamation marks after every sentence but that is how your vlog made me feel :)

This travel blog is a wonderful idea and a great way to allow us a chance to see and learn things we would otherwise miss. Thanks for sharing the beautiful landscapes of Cumbria and for the interesting vendor interviews at Yarndale. Such an amazing variety and creativity! Looking forward to all future interviews and in-depth segments.

Such a great vlog, I was so sorry when it ended. I can't wait to watch the full fruity knitting episodes with all the interviews you recorded.

Wonderful that the two of you took a little road trip and looks like some great interviews, I am so excited. Most of all I am so happy to see you both smiling, beautiful ladies! 💕

An absolute delight! Such fascinating people, and you two are just lovely. The last moments with Kaffe Fassett were priceless -- I had to watch a second time!

Well, if that wasn't a highlight of my week! What a lovely relationship you have together. I watched with a crazy smile on my face the whole interview, especially that last part. And the variety of the knitting and fabric world never fails to astound me. Moths! Medieval Embroidery with a touch of KISS! Oh, Andrea--I so want everyone who watches to become a Patreon so you continue this work. You are so talented and professional. Andrew and you learned so much, and now Madeleine is learning and carrying on with you for now. I wish her luck in her studies, but really, I want to see more of her when she can. The two of you are the best !!!!!

I'm loving this travel series! The landscape is food for the soul - esp mine because I live in a rather unlovely region of southern Ontario! Also, just want to say (as a mum of a 21 yo daughter): Madeleine (I hope I'm spelling this correctly) is a wonder of composure and articulateness - just like her mother. How proud you must be, Andrea.

This was so much fun! Thank you for taking us on this journey. It is great to see the behind the scenes meticulous work that goes into making your fabulous interviews. Thank you.

Wow! This travelogue was just fantastic. So excited for the upcoming episodes - incredible guests lined up! Can’t wait! Thanks so much for all you do. Your love of this work is so clearly obvious and Andrew is just so proud. You are an incredible team. 💕💕💕💕💕💕 THANK YOU 🙏

You two are very beautiful! Thank you for taking us along.

What a gift you two ladies are - such a joy to have you here in my home. Now I have lots more to look forward to. Thank you so much!

Thanks for another fabulous installment of your travel vlog. I have been so enjoying seeing all that you are doing. Then, to cap it off with the reveal of your interview with Kaffe-I’m so excited to hear what he has to say as I am a big fan of his work both in knitting and in fabric! That will be such a treat!

These vlogs have a very different look and feel from your regular episodes, and I enjoy them immensely. You're rounding out the viewers' experience by giving us more of your personalities. Thank you, A&M, for giving this beauty to the world.

What a wonderful production❤️ Your work is such high quality and a delight to the senses. Thank you for all the love and energy you put into making these gems.

Absolutely loving your Vlog, music and I know it is really hard work so totally appreciate that you Andrea and Madeleine are including us in your travels, safe journey xx

Wow!! Glad I watched to the end. Kaffe Fassett! Can't wait for his interview, plus all the others. Really a lot of exciting fiber content on our way, plus a more detailed tour of the Bronte parsonage. I visited there in 1985 or so, and I can see there is even more on display now.

This was one of my absolute favorite episodes! Such a joy to watch! Loved the editing and music and adventure and everything! I felt like I went on a wonderful rich vacation along with you!

It’s so lovely to see you both having fun. Brings a smile to my face. And wonderful music!

Wow, if this is just the trip to gather interviews, I am looking forward to the interview. You girls are spoiling us. God bless you both.

Truly enjoyed every minute of this. I think you are giving us something really unique. It peaks our interest for what your future episodes will hold and gives us some behind the scenes filming. In addition to all of that the musical accompaniment was so evocative. It is truly signature Fruity Knitting. Can’t wait to see the episodes to come!

Agree, the music is so beautiful and goes with the landscape wonderfully

I am in awe. You are conduits for such enormous beauty and it spills out onto everything you capture, and on to your own beautiful faces and carriage. I cannot imagine a better 30 minutes spent transported into this magic land of fiber and gardens and breathtaking landscapes. Thank you both for your absolute generosity in bringing us along.

I loved this travel Vlog, ladies! Alan Dart - I recognise his wonderful creations. Wow! And Tanya Bentham is such a great character. Thank you, Andrea and Madeleine for taking us along on your road trip. Lucky ducks!

Well done Madeline and Andrea! The travel vlog is so personable and delightful. Thank you for sharing and taking us on your journey.

Absolutely enchanting!! I cannot wait until the episodes with these interviews come out! Wow!💖💖💖

Thank you for sharing the behind-the-scenes peeks and your travels! So looking forward to seeing all the interviews. You make such a professional team!

Thank you for allowing us to travel with you, albeit vicariously.Looks like you’ve got utterly fabulous material for future episodes. Love you two so much!

From someone who will never see any ot these wonderful places in person, your two vlogs have meant the world to me. The scenery, the Bronte family area, the fiber festival (and the choice of vendor interviews) are priceless. For me, if you happen to slip from A+ to A- quality in your productions, it's not a big concern. Your content alone makes up for any of what you might view as deficiency in experience. The important thing is not to exhaust yourself with worry about it. As far as frequency of segments, this patron will understand that life requires adjustments. If that means you need more time, take it. The most important thing for me is to be able to watch for as long as I can. Thank you and Madeleine for all you're doing. Andrew would be so proud.

I love these vlogs. You always make us feel a part of your family and I have missed you. Thanks for sharing your travels with us. Can't wait for the interviews.

Traveling with you is so charming! Loved the music at Yarndale of course. So interesting at every turn.

About to go to bed and then: "Oh! A new Fruity Knitting video!" Thank you for another great vlog of such a beautiful trip.

Vey nice episode and Madeline did great. Dad would have been so proud. Thanks Ladies. 😍🥰👏👏👏💐💐

What a magnificent vid! Kudos to the editing and music! I nearly drooled when I saw the yarns and textile fair. Educational on several topics. Travel, local history, specialty medieval technique, dolls, history of weaving, on and on. I’ve shared this vid not just for the content but for the happy healthy vibes in a time when there’s so much online negativity. Huge hugs!🦌💌❤️🧶🙏

My jaw literally dropped during the mini-interview with the Opus Anglicanum woman. I want to be her best friend. And the promise of a segment with Kaffe Fasset is making my go heart go boom. Who knew that Fruity Knitting could have such a physical impact on me? You guys are really going in a fascinating direction.

This was such a beautiful and sentimental journey. You are both international treasures of the fiber community and first class documentary filmmakers. I am continually impressed by your choices of music, landscape, and interview topics as well as the pacing of your finished pieces. So much work goes into them. But more than anything, you project such love and appreciation for the artists you are bringing to our attention. In every way, Fruitty Knitting models a level of professionalism, preparation, curiosity, and artistic sensibility that is second to none. I am proud to be a patron and hope thousands will join me in supporting your important work.

You looked like you had fun. Great to see the county in glorious colour🥰. Looking forward to the full episodes 😁💕

Lucky me to watch this entertaining and beautiful trip with you while I knit. I look forward to each episode.

Oh my gosh, what a gorgeous minisode! I was so excited to recognize Kaffe Fassett, I can't wait to hear his interview! I think I first bought a book of his in the 1980s... he's so amazing. sadly, I must say that Fruity Knitting has totally spoiled me for other knitting podcasts. Most folks just point a camera at themselves and talk about... whatever. None of them (with the exception of Arne & Carlos) ever come close to the professionalism of these beautiful videos. I'm so excited to see more. Good luck and safe travels in beautiful UK.

Love it! Oh it's so good to see a yarn show even on video!! Thank you for sharing all of that and I'm looking forward to the interviews you're filming!

So exciting to see what’s to come, thank you for your ongoing work, you make a lovely working couple, as many have said Andrew would be so happy and proud of you both.

Thank you two! I'm looking forward to the upcoming episodes ❤

Wow! Really look forward to seeing those interviews! You gals are doing beautifully. God bless you both.

I am SO MUCH enjoying your Travel Vlog series! Thank you for publishing them. I’m hoping there will be more in the future.

Love Tanya Bentham the artist who finds a small niche she is passionate about and makes it into something educational, a bit cheeky and beautiful.

Wow!! You were able to interview Kaffe Fassett!! Such a beautiful podcast.

Brilliant! Such a wonderful teaser trailer of things to come. I am excited.

Ladies! A-mazing job giving us a snapshot of your work and journey! Really helps us all understand what goes into the episodes before they are polished for viewing. I just love seeing your creativity and the everydayness behind it all! Thank you.

Thank you for so much color and joy! God bless you!

Thanks again for taking me with you, and ending with Kaffe Fassett, how wonderful. Big hug.

Love love love these travel behind the scenes vlogs! So fun and interesting to. Madeleine dress is beautiful! Xx

Dear, you are making this vlogs very uplifted, full of joy and happy faces. I think Andrew, wherever he might be puts a great smile on his face and be very proud of you two. I can tell I was moved about the music and also about seeing you together as passionated. Thanks from a Belgium member of your podcast, Christiane 😘❤️

Thanks for taking us with you on your road trip

This is one of the best vlogs I have even watcherd, thank you very much Andrea and Madeline! I can’t wait to see the full interviews and so many beautiful, interesting, innovative people in this episode. Thank you!

Wonderful! I felt like I was there with you!looking forward to seeing the resulting interviews! Thanks ladies!XXXX

Oh, you teasers! Can't wait to watch your interview with Kaffe. 🤩

I always look forward to your vlogs and podcasts, never a disappointment. Thank you for sharing, your work is appreciated.

There is nothing about this travel VLOG that isn't terrific! Madeleine is really becoming quite the narrator and video queen while Mum is mastering all that techy stuff brilliantly. I am enjoying this SO much. I especially like your mini-interviews with several of the vendors at the wool fair. It is so nice to hear and see the people who would otherwise get so little recognition for their work and art. I'm loving it! It's so inspiring. I've already placed an order with one of the vendors and am planning to use my Patreon discount on that lovely yarn by Julie Rutter. From all appearances I would expect that we can look forward to an interview with Kaffe Fassett soon. What a treat! You girls rock! It's so nice to see you both smiling and happy and doing what you obviously love. I can't get enough.

Wow Wow Wow!! I remember driving through Cumbria with my Andrew and how much he enjoyed driving the roads. A manual car really is the only way to go for all the wonderful braking, exhilarating roundabouts and narrow roads. If you want a steep village to walk through, travel to Wales and go to Clovelly. That’s all I’m saying. Being down here in Melbourne, where we are still in lockdown, it’s absolutely inspiring to see the glorious English countryside again. If we can ever travel again, I’m going back to Britain, not only to travel, but to visit friends I still have there for 30+ years. This is definitely a fantastic travel vlog!

In reading other comments, I learned that is Alan Dart sitting on the couch!! What a special treat. I love his work.

What a fun trip you had! I loved seeing all of the countryside and the beautiful buildings. I can't wait to see the video filled with all of the fun places and people you met. Have a lovely time! Sharon waving from California USA :D

What an amazing overview of the festival.

Thank you Andrea and Madeleine. It was so good to see you both. I’m looking forward to your interviews. You two have a magic touch when it comes to your vlogs and podcasts. They are a cut above the rest for sure! Take care.
