Episode 19

 As usual, lots of new patterns discussed this week. Especially when we talk about holiday knitting. No, don't run screaming, you know it is coming! We realize not everyone knits gifts for the holidays, but if you do, we hope you will find our resources helpful. If you have any other patterns and projects that you like for holiday knitting, don't hesitate to share it in the comments or over in our Ravelry group. Happy knitting!

Episode 18 - Hello September

September is here, the kids are back in school, and we are roving podcasters no more. Don't get me wrong, we love summer, but there is something comforting about returning to our usual recording spot (my dining room table), with its usual comforts (available internet connection, drinks, bathroom). In this part of California, September is usually one of our warmest months. Though we aren't feeling the fall knits yet, we both have an eye on some new and new-to-us patterns and fantasy knitting projects. Our stalking segment is full of possibilities. Our knitting presents us with challenges. Our finished objects hold both happiness and heartbreak. Just another week with The Yarniacs! Enjoy.
