Best interview ever!!!!   Wow!   Hazel Tindell is in Bermujan terms is “a hammer!”.   That is the highest compliment and honestly from one (isolated) islander to another, she is truly fabulous!   Such familiarity and franknes, honesty and ease.   Amazing!   Loved every minute.   Thank you!  ❤❤❤

I just love Helen Tindall. She has such a pleasant manner of speaking,  with no envy, and a great appreciation for the creative work that ladies once did to contribute to the support of their families. I love hearing about simpler times, when women's work made ladies indispensable to their families and society. 😊 ❤

G’day, I Thoroughly enjoyed their interview with Hazel.  She’s so easy to listen to, her knitting, stories of Shetland, her bursts of laughter just joy.  The interview was well prepared, just great. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

What a lovely interview! I love your quiet interview style and Hazel is a marvel. Thanks both.

Watching Hazel’s fast fingers as she knits is mesmerizing

22:00 when is it a "real" Shetland shawl ? Hazel: Life is too short for such discussion.

Thanks for a great interview and both of you for giving us a peek at the history behind your drive to knit!

It wasn't until about the 3rd piece of lace  I'd knit that I read it was supposed to be hard.  I'm self taught, my grandmother, Großmutter, had arthritis bad enough that she couldn't actually show me but she gave me her needles and a book.  It was the old book that had knitting, crochet, tatting and embroidery.  I learned them all but the greatest gift from that book was that if you only worry about the stitch you are doing, one stitch at a time, you can do anything. I've put needle's in my grandchildren's hands, gotten them started so it feels familiar then told them to continue from a book or pattern. I'm available for assistance or advice but you have to learn to read directions, read a graph.  That's the reason lace wasn't difficult because you can only knit one stitch at a time.  That and with lace you have to accept the magic.  Until it's blocked it looks like you've knit it with your toes.  The pins and wires come out and TADA!  It does wonders for the ego.  The talk of cardigans in this video made me think of steeks and how much I want to take the leap.  What stops me is dragging out the sewing machine or having to crochet them. Would it be a grave mistake to just make a couple runs on each side with needle and thread, nibble some crackers to fight the urge to throw up, then cut?

Hazel, You will always be the 'World's Fastest Knitter' to me !

25:27 knitting belt and Hazel knitting!

Such a lovely lady, she just loves knitting. She is not competitive and her knitting keeps her focused on her lovely slow life - a bit like myself ❤❤

love how kind and easygoing she is. and she keeps her garden "tidy-ish". amen sister!

Thanks for this lovely interview.  I love Ms. Tindal's pragmatic approach to knitting.

Very nice to see these older interviews.  Hazel knitting speed is amazing. TFS! ❤

I just love Hazel! What a beautiful inspiration! Thank you!l xx

Loved this interview! Hazel is amazing

This was just a wonderful interview. All the questions we at home wanted to ask. Well done. I teared up a few times.
I would love to see the Shetland Isles and also other parts. The explanation of the poverty was enlightening. Mine and my husband’s ancestors escaped that poverty to Australia. We have grown Merino wool for generations and all I want to do is knit Fair Isle and Ganseys.
Just a note on knitting with Alpaca and the drape. I’ve knitted the same child’s jacket in garter stitch 5 times. Herdwick was fabulous. I used Alpaca in the latest with a silk kid mohair filament as well. It has held its shape.
Drape is such an unknown quantity.
Absolutely loved the interview and I’m so jealous that I can’t meet Hazel. National Treasure. Love from Australia 🇦🇺

Life is all too short the think about silliness, I agree.

Thanks Hazek Tindal is such a lovely person, it was nice to discover more sides of her.

Hazel knitting bomb, she can knit also in the dark!!😊
