You look exceptionally beautiful today in this video. Your hair is gorgeous brown with the golden highlights and brings out your brown eyes with such an aura. Another viewer mentioned your makeup. I don’t know if it’s pregnancy, makeup, happiness or what it is…..enjoy your beauty. As a 70 year old, I realize, I never appreciated my beauty in my youth. Enjoy! I truly love your podcasts, too. Good luck with your pregnancy and Happy Holiday.
She always has looked better with natural hair as opposed to her bleach blond look
Oh thank you!
Aw Susan, enjoy the beauty of your years ❤❤❤

Yes she is very pretty Nordich prinsess 👸🇳🇴
You are gorgeous inside and out and pregnancy looks good on you. I look so forward to your podcasts. Thank you for taking the time to create them. You are an inspiration.
Thank you for sharing the beautiful Christmas music. Ava Maria always brings tears to my eyes only because it brings a good memory for me. My eldest cousin sang it to my grandmother for her Christmas gift.
Your haircolor compliments your complexion nicely. So great to see motherhood agreeing with you, but then you're a beautiful person inside and out. 🥰 Your knitting has given me the encouragement I needed to start a few fun winter knitting projects for myself.
Thank you so much!
What a beautiful podcast. You are looking absolutely radiant in your pregnancy. Thank you for the encouragement to crack on with my Christmas gift knitting and also for the gorgeous scenery and beautiful singing at the end.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for the beautiful music and discussion of Christmas traditions in your family and Norway. I love it!
What a joy it is to see you bloom. Thanks for this lovely episode ! The concert was magistral !
Through your podcast you have given us so much inspiration for wool brands and patterns, thank you. Good luck with the birth of Nelly, the pregnancy already makes you shine. I wish you and your entire family happy holidays.
Thank you so much! Happy holidays😘🎅🏼
Lovely video, and I appreciated the concert excerpts, beautiful voices.
You have a perfect set with the cowl and fingerless mitts. If you have the time to make him a different cowl, then you don't have to worry about the fit and you get something helpful for you. 😊
Again a great episode :) I loved the music at the end, such a Christmasy feel... and the Czech song made me so happy🥰🥰🥰
I am hoping to make my first pair of socks this year-- someone suggested I start with baby socks first... tiny knits are so cute! So many lovely makes~ thank you so much for sharing ♥
Awesome podcast! Thanks for the bonus Christmas concert!
Such a lovely video, I'm always inspired by your beautiful knitting. I love listening to your voice too❤
Hearing Norwegians singing in Czech language ‘tri orisky’ made my not just day but month. So so lovely. I decided to watch your new Cinderella this Xmas in original without any subtitles and make it my new tradition. I am very Happy about this little Norway-Czech Xmas connection. Have a lovely time! ❤❤❤
I dont get the ultimate christmas feeling until i sit down and eatch your cinderella on the 24th at 11 am😄
Exactly! ❤ And he nailed it! 👍Thank you, Inga, for recording it (and everything else 😊). Have a joyful time! In the recent years, when watching Cinderella, I'm always thinking about my Norwegian "knitting pals" and feeling and loving this connection as well. ❤
Beautiful Christmas stocking. Glad to see you back. Love your knitting videos.
Can't wait for you to share all your baby knits! No doubts, your little one will be spoiled with you amazing knit. :)
Those singers!!!! Glorious!! Thank you for sharing that beautiful performance.🎄🥰🎵🎶
Thank you for a lovely episode. Bergen is one of my favourite places. Happy Christmas ❤
Thank you, Inge, for the beautiful music and scenery!
The music at the end was beautiful, Inga.
Happy Holiday to you and yours. I love your videos so much. I find them inspiring, and just lovely, but this time, the end where you are walking through the snow, with the crunching sound, it filled my heart so much, we now live in the Netherlands, but have lived in the Adirondack mountains of New York and I miss being able to just walk outside into the wilderness. Thank you.
I enjoy the nature endings of your videos. Beautiful and relaxing.
This was such a beautiful podcast thanks for sharing ❤merry Christmas
Happy holidays!
Thank you for sharing the wonderful music at the end. So peaceful. 😌
I love your podcast. Thank you for always making the time to share your knitting adventures. I am knitting the twist loop top and really enjoyed listening you alongside, as always. Much love from New Zealand ❤
Hi Inga. Regarding the Shepherd's Wool yarn you purchased. It is milled very close to me (I live in Michigan) and I have used it often. They are no longer selling it to yarn shops and can only be bought directly from their website. It is considered worsted weight at 17 sts using a size 5 mm. The 4 ounces translates to 113 grams and 228 meters. When I need to translate from meters to yards (I use American math), a yarn shop told to me add 10%. This works in the reverse for yards to meters. Hope this helps. BTW, love the podcast and all the wooly things you are making. I also love your hair. The lovely brown with highlights goes so well with your coloring and I bet it will be so much easier to maintain when baby comes. Cannot wait to hear when she arrives.
Thank you for the concert . God bless and keep you and baby safe and well
You’ll have to knit a tea cozy for your lovely teapot!❤
Thank you so much for this new episode! You are wonderful and you look gorgeous. Happy Christmas and all the best to you and your family! 😊🤗❤
Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing all you share and the beautiful Christmas concert! Just getting caught up here and off to watch your new video!
Inga, this was such a beautiful episode. Thank you for sharing all of the yarny goodness and knitting!! I love the story of you going to the yarn shop basement, your bravery paid off!! Loved the Christmas concert💚🎄♥️
I have so enjoyed knitting along with your podcast this year. I am looking forward to all of your future 2023 episodes along with hearing about your growing family. Best wishes from Margaret of My Wonderful Knitting Life podcast!
Thank you for your video. This one had made me so happy. I've found myself smiling almost throughout the whole video.
I'm so glad!😍
I love to see your infinite wip list while i knit on my colourwork sweater ❤ i am impressed you have so much progress in many wips and fos. I always enjoy my time when i watch your podcasts happy holidays Inga ❤💕❄️
Oh thank you! Happy holidays😘
@@knittingtraditions you too ❤️
That is a beautiful church and wonderful music.
Merry Christmas, Inga. Wishing you and yours a wonderful, peaceful, and happy holiday season. ❤
Happy holidays!
Such a lovely podcast!! Hugs! ❤
You look gorgeous, Inga! Love your knits and acquisitions. The snowflakes were amazing at the end! And the performance- so beautiful! All the best! Kimberly
The concert footage was a lovely treat at the end. Thanks
Always great to see you! And the opening scene my eyes spotted some brown cheese, Yummy! I can get it here in the United States but tends to be hit or miss and always a drive, now I have to go next week. Best wishes for a happy holiday season.
Thank you for sharing the beautiful footage at the end. The music was beautiful. ❤
You are so welcome
A lovely video once again! The golden cardigan is so lovely for a baby 😊
Thank you! 😊 shel be so cute in it😁
Loving the winter wooly wool knits.
Thank you for another great podcast. Wow the scenery is amazing. The snow ❄️. Have a great Christmas 🎄
Happy holidays!
Thank you Inga for sharing all your beautiful projects and plans. You are glowing, I wish you and Mateus all the happiness and joy in anticipation of your imminent arrival, moments in life to truly treasure. Thanks also for sharing the local scenery and the beautiful music , happy Christmas. 💜
Thank you so much! Merry christmas😘
I love your episodes, always full of inspiration! I would ADORE seeing all the baby knits you have, that little red cardigan is gorgeous! Happy Christmas from SUSIE from Australia 😃🧶
The pembroke stocking is so cute! I didn't know there was a cardi version of the Billie Pullover, but now I wanna make one so bad! It's beautiful! 😍
Love your acquisitions!
Thanks Inga! Beautiful gift socks - the added mohair strand really pushes them to the next level of gorgeousness. Gift knitting has its ups and downs - I never feel relaxed knitting for others, not knowing if they'll really like it or if it will fit well. But I still keep doing it because I feel like it's one way to pass on some love. Lovely footage at the end!
Thanks for sharing. I always love your videos. Also, I especially love your makeup today. It’s beautiful on you. :)
Oh thank you!
Hi Inga that was fantastisk to see that people in Norway also eat some cheep head, like we do like very much in Iceland. Wonderful yarn you show us snd the sweaters looks so pretty and Nice. I live in Denmark over 20 years but comes from Iceland 🥰 I like very much to see al the cokkies. Thanks for share❤ Have a Merry Christmas and Happy and blessed New year 🎄🤶🏻🙏
Så vackert med julkonserten i slutet, tack för att du delar med dig! 🥰
Such a beautiful video. You look radiant!! The Christmas music was spectacular, Ave Maria brought tears to my eyes! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Happy holidays!
So many beautiful knitted projects! Another fun podcast. You are blooming Inga. 🤩❤️
Thank you! 😊
You are glowing Inga. And your knitting 🧶 is amazing. Happy baking. Be well!!
Thank you so much!
Ah Stonehedge! It’s an amazing yarn from upper Michigan US. Their mill is so small and in the middle of the country! I’m using it to make the porcelain sweater and I agree it knits more DK weight, but it is listed as worsted. It’s very affordable here so hopefully it was for you too
Love the stocking ideas
I enjoyed the beautiful Christmas concert at the end. Thank you for including it. It made me really miss my Norwegian grandparents although they have been gone many years now. Christmas meant more lefse (than usual), white sugar cookies (some with date filling) and wonderful things from the kitchen, but no sheep heads! Seeing beautiful Norway I wonder that they ever left.
Oh lefse😍 thay had some good traditions!
Kære Inga, tusind tak for at tage os med til koncert i kirken, det var så smukt ❤
Your podcast is always so beautiful, and I'm never not astounded by how much you can knit. Congratulations once again on your little girl! The sweater you got as a gift for her is so adorable. Merry Christmas 🎄 and Happy knitting! 💚🧶💚
Thank you so much! Merry christmas🎅🏼💕
Great Episode! You are so inspiring and lovely ❤
Thank you so much!
I ha, thank you for videos and music concert at the end - they were absolutely stunning. And wow, you certainly have made a lot of gift knits and progress on your other knits. Your baby bump looks good on you and that precious little baby looks like she’s due to pop into the world any minute, I just made a bottom up colourwork sweater for my granddaughter’s Christmas sweater at her request. Groan. I must say, after slogging away from bottom op, and those difficult first few rows of joining together, the color work just flew, and boom. I was doing the collar. So that was the bonus, but like you, I prefer a top down pattern. I have yet to do a sock tube and cut into it, but you have inspired me to give it a go. Thanks for all the inspiration. Have a great holiday season and best wishes for a quick and safe delivery if Miss Nellie decides to arrive before your next podcast. I second the wish to have a review of all the baby knits, as a Nana who has knit over 1500 baby hoodies for family and friends over the past 40 years, I love to see what others have knit.
The little cardigan is stunning and so cute! What a wonderful gift. As usual, I absolutely loved this episode. Sorry you were under the weathwr and glad you are feeling better. Keep taking care and Season's Greetings to you and yours! Christmas Market/Festival sounds wonderful, have fun!
Thank you so much! Happy holidays to you and yours😘😘
Woah Inge, sheep heads!? Bring on the Viking beast mode 😂 would loved to see that! I enjoy watching your videos, they inspire me as I’m learning to knit again ❤ sending love from Michigan
Takk for alt du deler... du strikker så mye fint..
A collection of Christmas knits and they are perfect gifts. I love the coat it looks snuggly and comfortable. The gift for your partner is stunning but a lot of knitting. The gift that you received the socks look so squishy. The cardigan for Nelly is beautiful wow. When you talk about planned knits you get a gleeful look on your face. Take care and rest sweet Inga ❤😊
Thank you so much!
Merry Christmas, Inga. I always love when you talk about socks. You gave me the courage to do an afterthought heel and sock tubes. It seems to be so much quicker and less stress! Everything was beautiful. The music at the end has put me in such the Christmas spirit! 🎄 I hope the final weeks of your pregnancy continue to go well. ❤
What did you do to determine where to insert the heel?
@angrytrees7519 Hi! The way I do it is As I knit the tube, the top of the sock in my case, once I have the length of the top of the sock, I then place bulb markers on either side of the needle ( I use magic loop) for reference of where the heel will be. I also put a marker on the stitch in the middle of the row for where to cut into the heel. Then, I continue knitting the foot. When Measuring for the foot, say it's a 9" foot, from my marker, I knit 5", the heel will add 2" and the toe will add 2", which gets you to a size 9" foot. I hope this makes sense. I have also watched other tutorials on KZhead, but this is the formula/method I have used for my foot, and it's working beautifully. 😊
Merry Christmas, Inga!
I thought I recognized that stocking! I’m so glad you are making it 😃 it’s looking so good and will be fun to eventually see it with the others you make!
You made me get yarn for the tree skirt tooo, all your fault🤭
Very nice👍
So happy to see you today. You look so beautiful 🤗. Your sock 🧦 round up inspires me to knit socks… it’s been several months since I have knitted a sock. Maybe it’s time 🙃☺️
Hi Inga, I so enjoyed this podcast and the lovely video footage at the end which included the Christmas music. And as always I just love all seeing all the projects but that Biches et Buches scarf just took my breath away!!! Those colors!! Happy Holidays to you and all of your family .
Happy holidays!🥰😁
Love the music.
Thanks for another fun podcast. I love the beautiful Xmas music you included at the end. A pattern idea for your MacAusland yarn is the Rowe Cardigan from Michelle Wang. I have been eyeing that pattern for quite some time, but have only gotten to swatching it. It has tons of cables with a nice shawl collar. It would be beautiful in your yarn. Enjoy the holiday season and the end of your pregnancy.
I LOVE everything you create but Nelly's little cardigan made my heart sing!!! Soooooo sweet. 💖💕
Anninna is such a kind sould for making it and its so well made😍
Thank you for another lovely episode! I loved hearing about your yarn store adventure and couldn’t believe you found Shepherds Wool! It is local to me here in Michigan so I am biased but do love it. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas season ❤
Oh thank you! Merry christmas and advent season to yiur aswell🎅🏼💕
Thank you for sharing. Beautiful work as usual! I absolutely enjoyed footage, all the songs and music . We are far from each other but felt like if was in our church in Canada. Xmas spirit is all around us now ....❤
I love the mitts and the cowl! I'm curious to hear what you decide to make with the Shepherd's Wool. I recently got a skein at a yarn swap, and it is very soft and squishy. I just haven't decided what it wants to be yet. Thank you for this wonderful episode! Keep taking good care of you!
Jeg er så glad du fant Pinnsvindesign!!!
Anniina is such a sweet person. I love to watch her podcast as well. The cardigan for Nelli is beautiful ❤
I totally agree!
wow I have never seen such beautiful snow flakes....
-30 made them nice and crisp
The Shepherds Harvest mill has closed permanently. So sad. I loved their yarn
Always love watching your videos. You had some beautiful acquisitions. I would love to see the knitwear you have for Nelly. We are traveling to Oslo next Summer with our son, Christopher who was born there. He is now 15. I am so excited to show him his beautiful birth country, and to buy lots of Norwegian yarn!!!!!
Oh i hope you have an amazing trip😍
Inga! That scarf is stunning! As are you. Pregnancy suits you so well. I hope you feel as well as you look❤
Thank you so much!😘
I wanted to ask how do you make time to knit? Any chance you can go over your time management in your next poscast? 😊 Thank youu ❤ Tarver
Thank you Inga as always for your podcast! Love cardigan just perfect for you and baby! Scarf 🧣 is beautiful and definitely my colours ! I’m traditional girl my Christmas decorations are mostly red, green and gold! You look so lovely as always even with baby on way! Merry Christmas 🎄 xx 💜🎄💜
Thank you so much! Merry christmas😘
You have a beautiful church to worship Jesus in, Inga 🙏🏻One of my favorite 🎶 songs, “ We’re Walking in the Air”…..So lovely ✨🌟All your baby knitting is adorable ❤️ Merry Christmas xoxoxoxo
So I was not going to purchase any yarn . . .but then I saw your beautiful scarf ! I had to go there immediately! Merry Christmas to me! Oh my gosh! I just finished this same scarf! It is leaving for Germany today for my son’s girlfriend! I loved making this scarf! Super easy and relaxing!
Happy holidays! And what a lovely gift for her😍
@@knittingtraditionsHave a wonderful Holiday with your dear family! I assume you will be spending it at the cabin?
Takk for fin stemningsfull episode;) Ønsker deg en god jul!
I appreciate so much how long your episodes have gotten! This weekend, watching your podcast was part of some lovely parallel "me-time". I watched your episode and knit and my partner watched a football game of approx. the same length. :D What great progress you´ve made on all of those gift knits! I´m almost done with gift knitting as well. Just finishing up some Angora mittens (sooo soft!) for my grandma and afterwards just one other pair of mittens for my dad left. That footage at the end of your cabin and the surroundings was stunning!
Oh those mittens sound heavenly 😍
Both yarn and pattern are from "Ullveig", a norwegian small family business who raise the Angora bunnies themselves. Higly recommend. :)
Yes Inga you definitely influenced me to order Hillesvag unspun ( I got dark charcoal) after you showed it on your podcast - and I live in rural Australia so they absolutely do ship internationally. It wasn’t prohibitively expensive and didn’t take that long, a couple of weeks from memory. I also love Nutiden but Hillesvag has those lovely neutrals that Nutiden doesn’t always have so I love them both. Just waiting now for next winter - it’s 32 Celsius today so too hot for woollen unspun. I’m either knitting small fingering projects or cotton tops - the Trunk Island Tank by Beth Macdonaldstone . But it’s hard seeing all the gorgeous Scandinavian woolly knits on KZhead and Insta right now!
May I suggest an Aran weight cable cardigan: Alpenglühen by Isabell Kraemer. Her patterns are always superbly written, I can only recommend! And may I ask: as far as I remember you once made a colorwork tutorial (esp how to weave when you have longer strands), but I cannot find the episode! Can you (or anyone else) remember by chance? Have a wonderful Christmas time and an easy and healthy arrival for your little one, and a great first time for the three of you! ❣️
Tusen tack för din underbara podcast 🙏🤩 önskar dig och dina nära kära en riktigt fin jul och ett fantastiskt gott nytt år 🧑🎄🤶🌲🥳 🎉
God jul😘 og godt nyttår🎅🏼
For the cardigan with cables you could take a look at Carol Feller patterns. Merry Christmas ❤
Nellie absolutely needs that red and white Christmas stocking? Luckily, you'll have all year to make it.
Muchas bendiciones
I agree about 1st projects being knot in the round, but I also like scarves knit in the round. Then they dont have to worry about decreases either. Then they are also setup for sock knitting too.
Brown cheese! Yummy. 😀 hehehe
A beautiful episode thank you Inga , I almost always cast on a new sweater after watching your episodes 😂😂 we eat sheep head too in Kuwait but we eat the brain too, we make it with broth and special stone oven bread like naan , I love it
With broth and naan i might be brave enough to try the brain
