  1. What an awesome podcast! I am just tuning in for the first time and I have to say I am stoked to see your knitting Mojo has returned! Your projects look lovely! I thought it was especially sweet to see the delightful treats your Mum sent (hurrah for Mums!)
    Our Rav group is doing Christmas in July so I'd be especially interested in knitting something blue with your group as a diversion from the holidays!
    Thanks for the podcast...I am off to join your group!
    Aloha,

  7. Clare!- you've helped solve my problem of figuring out what the Cassian shawl from sock report was called. I cannot thank you enough- I had heard it on a video podcast and looked it up- screen shot the photo and didn't write down anything about it no designer name or pattern source. I think it'd be a beautiful wedding shawl. Anyways thanks so much- love the podcast and your accent.
