I loved the story about you and Charr helping the Ms. Gusset (sp?) with bagging her fleece and manning her booth. I was also thrilled to hear that both of Franklin's girls have shown back up. I decided to post here instead of on the Ravelry string this time because you mentioned that it helps to know that people look at the show notes. I always look at them and really appreciate the effort you put into providing videos, photos, and helpful links. Thanks again!<br /><br />FranFerniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07702432712544257808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-467274045211008791.post-39267328203485100402011-08-12T11:05:49.872-05:002011-08-12T11:05:49.872-05:00Paula, I always read your show notes because of al...Paula, I always read your show notes because of all the shawls you're knitting---most of them I add to my ever-expanding queue.<br /><br />As for Bronwyn and her sweater: frog it and start over. I think it's Jasmin Knitmore who says it all the time, something like "If you're not happy now, you won't be happy later". Fun With Yarn, I say.JudyAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03139350311484872958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-467274045211008791.post-69950085157945959542011-08-12T10:31:40.714-05:002011-08-12T10:31:40.714-05:00Well, I thoroughly enjoyed hearing all about sock ...Well, I thoroughly enjoyed hearing all about sock summit. And on a side note, I just ordered the Turkish Bed Socks pattern a couple of weeks ago. Hmmmm, I'm sensing a trend. I found a vintage pair eons ago, they don't look like they were ever worn. I wanted to try and figure out the pattern, and then voila, there it is. My vintage pair have more patterning and also colorwork, but the construction is the same. But my favorite part of this episode is Bronwyn's laugh. She has one of the most contagious laughs I have heard in a long time. Thanks for making me feel like I was right there with you.Auntea https://www.blogger.com/profile/01126608609334159795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-467274045211008791.post-42931852518122292472011-08-11T11:29:09.959-05:002011-08-11T11:29:09.959-05:00Hi Paula, Charr and Bronwyn,

Felt like I was in the room too, even though you didn't hear my comments. Like Susan, I loved, loved Paula's comment to Bronwyn "that she'll live through it". So spontaneous, motherly and true! <br /><br />Thanks for the show notes and links too. I've always admired Hazel knits.<br /><br />Best to all,<br />Martha<br />(goldbear on Ravelry)Marthanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-467274045211008791.post-65004970863214012592011-08-10T18:52:08.216-05:002011-08-10T18:52:08.216-05:00Hi Paula!

I was listening to this episode for the SECOND time tonight, and realized that you mentioned me in the segment about the Churchmouse Turkish Bed Socks! The first time I listened, I had to step out of the room to attend to something and totally missed this discussion. As you said at the top of your podcast, it IS really fun to be listening to a podcast and hear your name mentioned. Keep recognizing your listeners by name; I think it's one of the things you do that makes the Pipeline a community. :)Laurahttp://cafeaulaine.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-467274045211008791.post-73245689042629060582011-08-10T10:19:20.764-05:002011-08-10T10:19:20.764-05:00Another great show.

Talking about sock yarn and its ubiquitous use of shawls touched a nerve with me. With a drawer full of socks I have become very stingy with my pretty sock yarn feeling it's too good to risk wearing a hole, or hiding it under pants. I am using my sock yarn more and more for other things, like finger-less mitts, shawls, and scarves. I've always got a pair of socks (or 6) on the needles to be able to match my mood to my knitting, but my very prettiest sock yarn isn't ending up around my ankles quite so much right now.Kathleen Kibblehousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15317265692154249917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-467274045211008791.post-85764133221924325162011-08-09T19:35:54.385-05:002011-08-09T19:35:54.385-05:00I woke up this morning with an end-of-summer cold,...I woke up this morning with an end-of-summer cold, and I had a crummy day (REALLY crummy) . . . and the thing I kept telling myself was "When the day is done, you get to listen to Paula and friends."<br /><br />And I did.<br /><br />And I smiled.<br /><br />And I felt better.<br /><br />Paula, Charr and Bronwyn, thank you for the entertainment and for making me feel better.<br /><br />Bronwyn, I have no clue what to do with your twisted knitting, but I love that you're having the problem!

It made me laugh one more time. Thank you and how fun is that!<br /><br />I don't know about Bronwyn's sweater/cardigan. I would rip it out and start again and especially because it is not the right size anyway. I think your advice was good. She'll live through it:)<br /><br />That's my two cents. <br /><br />I love your podcast and really look forward to each episode. I would love to attend Sock Summit someday, not for work, but just to attend as a knitter. It sounds like such a good time. Thank you for sharing.<br /><br />Take care, Paula.<br />Susan B.

I so enjoyed hearing how you learned to knit! Thank you for all that you put into each podcast. I listen during my hour long commute to and from work and it doesn't seem so long when I'm listening to my new friend! BTW, I play hammered dulcimer (well, I haven't taken it out of the case in 3 years, but I really should do so).

Agree with you, Paula and Charr, there is an alarming tendency of participants in classes everywhere to yak, take cell calls, show off what (little!) knowledge they have, etc. Sounds like Stephanie P-McP was a great lecturer. Loved your image of an auditorium full of people who were knitting.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00283424058996807594noreply@blogger.com
