Episode 132 - We forgot it's our anniversary!

Holy smokes Batman! Gayle and I started podcasting back in January of 2012. That means that we have been podcasting for five (count 'em – 5!) years. Of course, until the end of the podcast, we forgot. So we didn't plan anything special. As we say, this really is so "us." Much laughter ensues. :)

But as we enter this, our sixth year of podcasting, we would love to hear from you if you have any topics you'd like to hear about, designers, discussions, etc. We are looking forward to year six and I hope you will stick with us for another fun ride.

131 - Knitting in the new year

In this first episode of the new year, we come to you from the west cliff area of Santa Cruz on a sunny afternoon. We spotted several sea otters during recording and enjoyed our time in the sun. This is a shorter episode in keeping with our busy holiday schedules, but have no fear, we have ideas and plans for some fun episodes for 2017. We've cast on new projects for our Yarniacs Self-Indulgent Knit-a-long #sikal2017 and hope you will join us!
