    I’ve always felt ashamed to admit that knitting podcasts are solace, company, kindness, a visit with a friend (as you are). I live alone as a knitting senior. Thank you Jane for sharing the lovely comments from other viewers that have shown me that I do have “kindred spirits”. ❤
  • Thank you so much for this lovely episode. Both my mother and youngest brother have died in the last ten days so I feel the sadness and stress of this. My mother taught me to knit as a child. I’ve no knitting friends at all here in Calgary, so I very much appreciate the effort you have made to record and provide a place to sit quietly with my knitting. I look forward to your “walks”.

    Yes, it really is a very special community and thanks for helping bring us together. Your shop samples are lovely. Too bad you've had such a frustrating time with the shop's wifi etc. lately and I hope it gets better.
  • Another lovely video. Your videos are really uplifting & down to earth. Thank you Jane. Wishing you a peaceful Holiday time . 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
  • Thank you for taking the time to make this video and congratulations to the giveaway winner. I ordered from the website last week, just some Barber Cords as a gift. They arrived very fast - thank you. I hope all your technology is up and running soon. Have a lovely Christmas.

    Thank you Jane for your lovely vlogs. I have watched you from the beginning, and always enjoy catching up with you in your gorgeous wool shop. I just wanted to wish you a very Happy Xmas and a peaceful 2024. ❤
  • Jane thank you for all the podcast content this year. It has been a treat knitting along with you or having some knitting company whilst I make dinner. It was lovely & important to be reminded how cherished our knitting community is to people. Let's have more of it that's what I say. Have a lovely Xmas time with your family & I look forward to what Stitches & Cream have in store for 2024. PS still on with my Aster shawl but I will catch up eventually 😂.

    Thanks Jane for sharing your love of knitting & Cornwall. Merry Christmas from down under in New Zealand. Look forward to following you again in 2024 & seeing you out & about with your handsome boxer boy showing us around Cornwall.

    Thank you for another interesting episode . Do have a happy festive season yourself with your family.
  • @suebrown436
    Just caught up with your latest podcast Jane, which was wonderful as always. So sorry about the communication issues you had and the days of trading that you lost. So frustrating for you. Hope it's sorted by now, and hope you are enjoying the Christmas season. ❤
  • @lesamatthes7811
    I love the Christmas socks you are knitting! They will look wonderful.

    Jane I am so sorry to hear about your internet problems 😢It’s a stressful time of year already and you didn’t need that! Wishing you a wonderful Holiday time 💓🇨🇦💓
  • @janegarnier5693
    Thank you Jane , I so enjoyed your show today. I can so relate to everything you talked about. Christmas for lots of folks is a time for putting on a brave face and just getting through it. I always remind myself It’s only a day,along with New Year’s Day it’s only a day too. Difficult days for many nonetheless. 💙💙
  • @user-gk2tp7lz5v
    Merry Christmas to you too, full of lovely ideas and yarns too as always xx
  • @ansomemaid
    Thank you for another lovely episode, I love all the yarn you showed us, you keep tempting me to pop into the shop!
  • Love your podcasts. Looking forward to some ramblings around your beautiful area. Have not been to Cornwall for a very long time. Paula from Australia ❤
  • @carotrike
    Hope your shop is reconnected now. You've been on my mind! I know Kerry of Ginger Pink fame, she's lovely! Great that you have taken on her yarn! Not sure I'll be making the sideways cabled jumper! I usually use my phone for patterns these days so backwards and forwards patterns are not for me! I made Kay Jones' My Favourite Blanket during 2023, so now I am making scrappy socks from the leftovers. We ate at relatives houses so no food leftovers, only yarn at my home!😂 Happy New Year to you and all who join the conversation here at Stitches and Cream x
