lol! you looked so scared when your phone rang. you didnt look so keen on the yarn diet thing. dont do it if you dont want to. im definitely not doing a yarn diet this year.
ReplyDeleteNah, I don't think my stash is that bad! No diet for me...but I do want to knit more socks with the gorgeous socks yarns I got in 2011.
DeleteHi Emily,
ReplyDeleteYour are a technology person so maybe you will know what's going on. Occasionally, especially with close up but not exclusively, the image gets a lot of big blocks of black pixels. It can last up to about 30 seconds, though usually not that long. It happens with other video podcasts, not just yours. It might be happening just on my computer. Just wondered if you have seen this too. Thanks!!
Natalie
Hi Natalie,
DeleteThanks for bringing that up. If it happens on more than just my podcast, I'm guessing it has to do with your internet speed. You might have better luck subscribing to podcasts through itunes, and downloading the episodes as they are posted. That way, you won't be streaming the video using your internet connection, you will have it saved right on your computer.
But, this is just my best guess.
Thanks for watching!
Emily
Cool Emily,
DeleteYeah, I figured it is internet speed, but it works great on my boyfriends computer using the same internet connection. So Now I am pretty sure its processor speed or video card ability or some such hardware thing. But I'll try the download. That is a great idea.
Love love love the podcast. Yours has inspired me to maybe make one. It is so great to see so many knitting projects. No offense, but I was sorta glad to hear you tore out your cardigan collar because it helped me with a similar cast on issue with some felted slippers I was working on. So thanks for messing up (and being willing to admit it online)!
Keep up the fun stuff,
Natalie
Hi Emily, nice to watch you again.
ReplyDeletebelated felicitations.

OK, I'm really a fan of your podcast now! ;-) You really making me laugh with your comments! Still laughing the end of this podcast! Good luck with your socks! Deadlines are tough! It's a pair of socks, if you really knit a lot, you can make it! Have a great weekend!
