Welcome! My name is Emily and I am the host of this brand new podcast. You can find me on Ravelry and Plurk as oohfancypants. I realize the sound quality is poor, and I'm sorry! I will work on a finding a solution.

You, my dear, are super cute. You have a lovely, soothing voice and are a joy to listen to. I, too, love to knit stockinette socks. They are mindless and it always amazes me when I see a completed pair. Best wishes on a successful career as a knitting podcaster.
ReplyDeleteditto to everything KnittingsMyBag said, and love the unique idea you have for your wedding!
ReplyDeleteThank you both so very much for taking the time to comment! I'm glad you found the podcast.
ReplyDeleteHey there! Thanks for mentioning my Etsy shop & yarn on your podcast! :) When I was dyeing Ultramarine, I was picturing it as either Mona or Marilinda by Cookie A. Not sure that would work for you, considering you're planning to use it for the KAL, but in case you change your mind that's what I plan to do with mine (I have your skein's twin!). Good luck with the podcast; I wish you every success!
ReplyDeleteHi Dana!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for watching! I LOVE your podcast.
I don't have to use the Ultramarine for the KAL..I could always just buy some more yarn.
Ooh, those Marilinda socks in the green on the pattern page are gorgeous. Thanks for the suggestion and I want to see what you make!
Well done on an excellent podcast!! I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to future episodes.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your first episode. Can't wait for the next one. Yeah for putting yourself out there!
ReplyDeleteGreat podcast! I will definitely be watching again.
ReplyDeleteA possible lead for your camping wedding. This spot in western Maryland has cabins. Not sure if they have bathrooms though. I've never been, but I bookmarked a while back as a good spot for a family vacation someday.

Good luck with your wedding planning!
There's a beautiful state park in SC called Paris Mountain. They have a big lodge (Camp Buckhorn) and cabin rentals as well. There's a lake for swimming too and lot of trails and things for exploration. GSP Airport is about 30 minutes away. Here's the link so that you can look at the park for yourself. http://www.southcarolinaparks.com/park-finder/state-park/722.aspx
ReplyDeleteIf this doesn't fit the bill, there's lots of State Parks in NC,SC,and GA that have similar set ups. I'm from NC and always visit the state parks when we travel. Although this particular park is the only one I could think of that was still close to the downtown area. Greenville is a beautiful place too with lots of options for those not wanting to stay in the "campy" type accommodations.
Great podcast by the way.
Very enjoyable first video-cast!!! Well done on the first Christmas stocking. The vest is very pretty, altho' I am not fond of a cowl neck myself, looked great on you.

Emily, you are just a doll! Congrats on a great first episode - you will only get better! I enjoyed seeing all your projects. Your concept wedding sounds like a lot of fun and I even look forward to hearing about that.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your podcast. You have a lovely voice, interesting projects and yarn and you were concise. I am looking forward to more of your podcasts.
ReplyDeleteAs a fellow Madelinetosh devotee, I would highly recommend alternating skeins, even for the pale colors. It is not always necessary to alternate all the way in a garment though. Often i just alternate for about 20 rows or so when i change skeins. I have tried before to not alternate and the change is always evident in the light.
Happy knitting
