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!

Four years, four months and a week ago was the last time I recorded an episode of the podcast.  After all this time, my knitting spark has finally turned back into a (small) flame and I have been inspired to return to the podcast to share!  **Please note - all Ravelry links will be clearly labeled as such** You've Arrived at Your Destination Little Camaro by Tanis Lavalee  - Tanis Fiber Arts website Little Camaro Ravelry Project Page    Mini Last Unicorn - Bad Wolf Girl Studios Etsy Shop Mini Last Unicorn Ravelry Project Page Drive Crazyheart by Tanis Lavallee  - Tanis Fiber Arts website Crazyheart Ravelry Project Page Trip Planner North Shore by Tin Can Knits  - TCK website Neighborhood Fiber Company Studio DK Bean & Olive by Andrea Mowry  - Drea Renee Knits website Bean & Olive Grown-Up by Andrea Mowry - Drea Renee Knits website LolaBean Yarn Co.
