So cool to hear favorite podcastors on the same show! Currently knitting on the Itaca shawl by Stephen West, because clearly I need it to be spring.Thank you to all of you.
Great podcast! The sponsor/no sponsor conversation was enlightening.
That was fun to hear people I listen to talking together. I didn’t realize the cost the podcasters are incurring to bring us their shows. I’m about to finish the Piper’s Journey by Paula. I have the Gil’s Rock ready to cast on along with a pair of socks that go with the toe up class on Craftsy.
Really enjoyed the podcast with the three guests. I already listen to the Knitmore girls and Stash and Burn. I also miss Crafty pod but understand the difficulties of podcasting.
It was interesting to hear about the world of being a podcaster. I understand why a lot of podcast eventually shut down especially those that area solo adventures. It’s a ton of work.
I’m stash busting at the moment by crocheting and knitting a bunch of hats for the local hospital. The neurosurgery unit needs what they call “crani caps” for people who have had brain surgery. Any extras will go to the oncology unit as chemo caps. There are so many great hat patterns that it’s a fun way to burn through some leftover balls of yarn.
Really enjoyed the podcast. As a podcast stalker, designer, and yarn-aholic, I’ve been considering doing one myself *eeek* I just downloaded your Opening Night Pattern. So excited to get started, and hopefully finish in time to wear it before the weather gets warm.
What a great podcast – loved hearing all three podcasters just slightly out of their element.
Nice show.
I can’t even remember what I did before podcasts!! It’s so much fun listening to various individuals in a somewhat impromptu and informal setting – it’s kind of like having company except you don’t have to feed them or clean the house beforehand!
