  1. hello
    I really enjoyed your podcast and have subscribed for future episodes. Thanks for taking the time to record it, I am really looking forward to the next one.
    Re the Knitter magazine, agreed with your comments about it entirely, however, if you do knit something from it and think you have "gone wrong" check the errata page, it may save you time. I now check every knitting magazine site for their erratas before starting a project.
    Thanks again for super podcast
