    We were back after a four-month break! Amy joined me as my permanent co-host for what we hoped would be a new format. However, we never recorded it again. Too much life and illness getting in the way.
    Join us one last time as we draw for several prizes and talk about upcoming goodies in the shop!

    Illness has kept me from recording regularly, but I hope to rectify that soon. However, life is getting busy, so I won’t have as much editing in my episodes (no cool Rav displays.) Sorry.

    Since I had so much to talk about, it is close to an hour long instead of the usual 20-30 minutes. Hence the name “Double the Pleasure”. That’s what happens when you don’t record for almost three weeks! Too much to talk about!!

    Long tail provisional cast on tutorial will also be posted under the Tutorials Tab.

    Enjoy!
    Your knitting (and teaching) girlfriend

    I don’t have show notes this week, I was flying by the seat of my pants! Next week is ZK, so I will be making short entries on my trip and posting them when I get back in two weeks.

    Happy knitting!

    The red is from allergies, not drinking, though I definitely think the drinking would be more fun!

    I am SO unorganized this week, but I have two FO’s and a bittersweet new WIP to show you. I will have better notes, and the cool Ravelry pages in the episode thing, again next time.

    I am going to discontinue the fitness segment until mid-June. I watched the documentary “Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead” with Joe Cross at the recommendation of ploverbird and I found it incredibly inspiring. However, the whole idea of a 60-day juice fast is also very controversial (I am not doing a 60-day fast, just saying!) so I don’t think that what Joe has to say is for everyone. I am going to be trying some of his ideas and I will be documenting my progress on this journey to share with you all at the end. I just don’t want it to be mixed in with the podcast.
