    I totally agree with Magrit.
    I really adore you!

    And you can be very proud of your spinning progress.
    My, you decide very fast.
    I thought I was a quick decider and you far out :)

    What is your group at Ravelry.
    I want to compeed for the yarn or is it only for americans?
    I think about starting my own podcast and maybe I will post it tomorrow on my blog.
    Totally inspired by you, we will see

    Congratulations on the new wheel. I've heard you can't go wrong w/Schacht. FYI: I don't know if anyone else experienced this but the sound on this last episode was very low. I set my laptop to the highest volume and it wasn't enough. Just wanted to let you know. Can't wait for the next episode.
