I’ve found a few more treasures to share:

• Let’s Knit 2gether – a video podcast that I use bloglines to keep track of and I watch on their site as I do not have the ability to watch videos on my mp3 player.  Most recent episode was on felting – I definitely learned something new!
• Sticks and Strings – a gentleman from Australia – love his accent!
• Librivox – free public-domain audiobooks to listen while I knit.
• Unwound – Only two episodes and I’ve only listened to about 15 mins of first one and I’m loving it!  Check it out!  But be warned – you are going want yarn from South West when you are done listening to it!

Hope you enjoy these new discoveries – I’m off to my water class! 🙂

The local knit group I’m involved in has started a Charity Knitting program. We’ve chosen three local charities to knit and/or crochet for each year.  (For those of you who care, that means 4 mos to knit for each one).   The first one is the Yolo Wayfarer Center.

So, I’m going public – here’s my commitment.  I’m going to knit one hat/week until our first planned donation – which should translate into 5 hats.  It’s not going to change the world – but it might help someone!

So far I have knit one hat…4 to go!  Magic loop allows you to FLY – as soon as I get past the join – for some reason I keep twisting my joins!  grrr

I would appreciate some accountability — and always appreciate encouragement! 😉
