A Conversation with Friends

Well, Marly called an audible on today’s show. Instead of the regularly scheduled show she decided that today she just wanted to have a chat with an old friend.

After meeting on a stuffed airport ride to the Long Beach Convention Center in 2010, Marly and Benjamin have become friends and colleagues.

482746_10151541860385320_627020950_nThis episode was a great conversation about many things one of which was Benjamin’s new podcast, The Fiber Hooliganwhich can be heard live on Monday mornings at 11am CT.

Since the show was really off the cuff and just a chat between friends they talked about the fiber industry, crochet, and just life in general.

Now, you know that Marly and Benjamin can’t get together and NOT give away prizes! Yes, there were 3 prizes given away live but there was 1 prize that was a DOOZIE and is only available here!

XRX is giving a Ticket to the Fashion Show and Fashion Show dinner AND Free Marketplace admission to any one of the 2013-2014 STITCHES EXPO’s (winners choice). That isn’t all, because nobody wants to enjoy the wonders of STITCHES alone the lucky winner gets to choose a friend to win the same prize!!

Okay, if you are planning on going to any of the STITCHES EXPO’s in 2013 or 2014 you need to enter to win! 

WINNER WILL BE CHOSEN ON APRIL 1, 2013!!!

SO…if you haven’t already listened to the show…go and grab a cup of coffee/tea and your needles or hook then sit in your favorite chair and listen to two fantastic people chat about life!

    What a great afternoon-first Benjamin’s podcast and then yours. I had a fantastic time at my first Stitches East this year. The show had such a warm vibe in every part of my experience there. Getting a chance to go to the fashion show and dinner at the next one would be amazing.

    I’m sure you would be the best teacher ever and hopefully I will find out with a live class someday or through Craftsy. I enjoyed listening to you and Ben chat. I find out about so much of the latest and greatest from your show.

    I’d love to attend a stitches show… I’ve thought about going in the past, but I’m one of the crocheters that Marly says has no confidence. Maybe winning the prize would help! Great show Marly… and I’ve already subscribed to Ben’s new podcast.

    Marly- I just heard about Stitches, and I would love to go to Stitches Midwest! I thought I was living in a yarn-obsessed bubble, and I would love to meet others who share my love of yarn and crocheting!

    Just listened to the podcast and am happy to make it in by the April 1 deadline. I am dying to go to stitches and if I win this I will definitely go. Actually I am going to go sometime anyway, I feel like I’m missing out! Winning would just really help. Love the podcast and going to go download and subscribe to Benjamin’s right now. Thank you both
