Episode 2 - Throwback Thursday

Thank you for all the kind words and encouragement to keep going with this endeavor. I will add an update - after this episode I looked at a few more volumes of the Make it Yourself Books, and decided to just donate them without saving any of the patterns. I had a trip to town for several errands and was able to donate this large box of books (20 volumes) and two pieces of cat furniture that George and Gracie never used. Three bulky items gone at once - tip of the iceberg!

Bonus Pattern – Apple Hat After I made Episode 25, I contacted Ariel Zusya Benjamin to let him know how much I enjoyed his pattern and that I had talked about it on the podcast. I asked if he ever planned to make a PDF of the pattern, or if he would allow me to post a PDF of it on my blog. He replied and very kindly granted me permission to post the pattern here. If you like the pattern, please send him a note of thanks! Apple Hat Pattern Also - a link to the Apple Hat pattern page on Ravelry.

Welcome!

Welcome! I decided to create a space for my YouTube podcast that would have show notes, live links, still photos, and other content that doesn't quite fit into the description space from the YouTube site. This may be easier to navigate for some (for me!) than rummaging around YouTube.  To that end - here is my obligatory photo of George and Gracie - my constant companions! George is the tiger, Gracie is the solid grey.
