Commuter Knitter - WFH Edition - Episode 109 - A Day Long Battle With This Episode

 Take # 371 of this episode after technical difficulties.  It reminded me of the episode of The West Wing where President Bartlett could not successfully pre-record his weekly radio address.  In the end, he finally got through it live.  Turns out, the same strategy worked for me today and I was able to record the rest of the episode in one take and did not need to edit much! Join me as a project reaches a roadblock, a long languishing project sees the light of day again, and I swatch for upcoming projects.  My co-hosts make a return appearance on the show at the very end.

Thank you!

Thank you to Jasmin and Gigi of the Knitmore Girls Podcast for the recent shoutout

And many thanks to Jen of the Down Cellar Studio Podcast and YouTube channel for inviting me to join her for a Crafty Chat on her channel!

Road Maps - A Review & Giveaway for Mystic Shawls by Anna Dalvi

Since I normally record the podcast in the car, I do not have the convenience of having a copy of the book I am reviewing or extensive notes in front of me for reference.  Therefore, I have decided to take a different approach with my review process by moving to written posts here on the blog to give you additional information, and to ensure that I have covered all that I want to mention.  I will still give an overview of the titles, products, or other review items within the podcast episodes, but I want to be sure to give these items proper attention as they are often provided to me from the companies free of charge.  As always, all opinions are my own.  I hope you find this new review format useful. © Cooperative Press Today I will be reviewing Mystic Shawls by Anna Dalvi.  This title is available from Cooperative Press for $26.95 for the print and eBook or $16.95 for the eBook.  Thank you to Cooperative Press for providing an eBook copy for my ...

My Birthday Wish

I woke up this morning in hopes that yesterday wasn't real.  That it was all a nightmare.  But I could feel my eyes still damp with the tears that wouldn't stop and knew that was not the case. Before yesterday when people would ask me where I lived, and I answered "Newtown, Connecticut", they'd follow up with "Where is that?"  Now everyone knows where Newtown is.  And for all the wrong reasons.  I wish that weren't the reality. I wish that I did not hear the constant buzz of news helicopters overhead. I wish that The Today Show, Good Morning America, and the CBS Early Show weren't broadcasting 4 miles from my house.  Or that if they were it was for something happy. I wish that there weren't 27 new angels in heaven. I wish that these innocent children & educators did not die in vain. I wish that there is real change in this world as a result of yesterday's events. I wish that we come to live in a world where we do not fear...
