Fiftyfabulous Knits, episode 17 - knitting in the rain

Welcome to Fiftyfabulous Knits; my knitting podcast. I show what I’m working on, my finished projects, and from time to time also some of my “dream knits”.

In this week, the sound is terrible on the last 5 minutes – feel free to skip it; I’m only chatting about our plans for the next week :)

What I’m wearing:
Oleander – a new design, currently being tested. The pattern will hopefully be out very soon!

FO’s:

WIP’s:
Sunbed jacket, free-styled after my grandmother’s old bed jacket.
Scarf for fun – just knitting away in the glorious yarn from @StressKnits

Yes your podcast is here. Love your content and your knits are stunning. Pat pats to your precious pup. Hope the rains stop soon... enjoy your new space and your travels. Thank you.

Not crazy about the light blue stripe either. I've always felt that navy & white stripes are so classy.
I love the top you are wearing - someday I might have to knit it. I love the pale green you knit yours in. Just lovely.
Of course you will find the yarn shops on your little vacation/adventure. I'm excited for you and look forward to seeing through your eyes.

Thankyou Pia. I was looking out for your new podcast. I really enjoy them and your knitting is beautiful. You could also do a travel podcast/vlog as you travel around so much. You seem to have a lovely, happy life. 🙂🇬🇧☀️

love the story of your grandmother, so meaningfull. I am still bin watching your episodes while knitting. I didn't know that the patterns of Garn studio are copying, don't like them anyway they are full of mistakes (the few I tried) I really enjoy them, thank you! x Julia

Living in Austria my written English is bad. I want to thank you for the english podcasts, I love them. I am not knitting again now - just crocheting, but enjoying every minute of your podcasts. I love the Toscana, I love Siena, Firenze, I love Montepulciano, San Gimignano, Pisa, Lucca. I have studied History of Art so this region with all ist museums is a wonderland for me. Have a great time. I am looking forward to the next podcats. Thank you for sharing !

Greetings from Mississippi, where our heat index has been 115!
I thoroughly enjoy your podcasts and your beautiful creations. Would you consider filming your village, home and garden area? I’m such a lover of all things Italian and think all your viewers would love to see your new home.
Enjoy your trip to Tuscany—our travel to Europe is sadly on hold due to covid.

Enjoyable as always!
Have a wonderful holiday!

Love your podcasts. Your knitting is so inspirational; the Oleander top looks like something I would knit. Thank you for taking the time to record and let us have a view into your life in Italy.

I was so happy to wake this morning and see that you had recorded a podcast as I just love watching you and seeing the gorgeous things you create 💓 and I LOVE the bed jacket you are making it’s

Hi Pia. I just want you to know how much I enjoy watching your podcast.
I love your designs and purchased the pattern of the Scrappy Striber.
Looking already forward to your next podcast! Hugs from The Netherlands, Jolande

Love your podcast. I’m watching from Texas and am always amazed how technology can shrink those miles. Enjoy your trip.

I came to find your Oleander Top as I have the Belle Yarn and I could not take my eyes of lovely! I really look forward to its release!

[anitramb]

I am so enjoying watching your podcast, one of my calming pleasures. I love the beauty of your knitting but also how you explain the constructions and your yarn choices. I would be very happy to be able to knit your Oleander top one day...

Tak for endnu en skøn podcast som der blev lyttet til i bilen på vej til Lucca👌🏼Nu er vi på vej tilbage og overvejer at finde den restaurant ved Como søen som du omtalte i en af dine tidlige Episoder.
Den hvor man “kun” kan bestille en og samme ret/menu og man kan kun få den og den har de serveret i mere en 50 år husker jeg vistnok 👌
Tak for inspiration ❤️

[Hverdagsro]

1000 tak endnu en dejlig episode ❤️ Vi har en nerie på terrassen der altid minder os om de dejligste somre i Italien, så der er da ingen tvivl om at jeg bliver nødt til at strikke din smukke Oleander 🌸
