Notes
- Giveaways
- We haven’t shipped prizes from previous giveaways yet. We will, eventually, we promise.
- Projects
- Joey is working on a scarf for his son. His promise of finishing it by Christmas in previous episodes did not specify which Christmas it will be finished by. He’s making good progress, but isn’t banking on Christmas anymore.
- Greg completed a Mini-Stocking (no project page). He loves this pattern.
-
- Greg is knitting dishcloths. On his fishing trip, he knitted a big one with cotton yarn and Scrubby yarn held double. He’s looking forward to using it. He also has been using KnitPicks Dishie yarn, which he loves.
- Greg is working on a pair of Zigzagular Socks for his mom (project page). First sock is complete, he’s starting the zigs and zags on the other sock now. He’s using HauteKnitYarn.
- Greg is working on his Halcyarn Socks (project page). First sock is complete. He loves the contrasting cuffs, toes, and heels in black, but he hates weaving in the ends with black yarn. Yarn is custom-dyed by Dr. Kelly from the Ewe University podcast.
- Greg has started some imaginary knitting: the Sun Blossoms Cowl with amazing alpaca yarn from Fair Winds Farm.

I am new to the podcast world so please forgive me if this is obvious to all you old hands, but I assumed that a podcast referring to actually knitting would have something about knitting. At least that’s what I was hoping for. Or is this some sort of millenial post-something ironic reference?
Hi, Nancy — thanks for checking out the podcast. While we often talk about general things going on in our lives and the world at the beginning of the show, we dive into knitting content as the show goes on. I hope you enjoyed listening to Joey and me talk about the many knitting projects we were working on, as well as reviewing several knitting patterns and a knitting subscription service.
