the knitting podcast for the yarn obsessed

The Podcasts

So after a week off to clean up shop (literally) and a metric acre of turkey (unfortunately, probably also literally), we're back to rock the mic with some talk about things like knitting schizophrenia, girls and math, and the little starry thub-thub hearts that Lime seems to be sporting in her eyes these days. 

Also, there are promises of a downloadable PDF of a huuuuuge list of gifts that you can pounce your family for for the holidays, and our top three from the main categories -- books and yarn -- discussed at length.

Music this week is "Never Trust a Panda", because you know you'll fall for his black panda eyes... 

Watch the blog (http://limenviolet.blogspot.com) later today for the aforementioned PDF, and a list of thankyous that's as long as our arms.  (Depending on font size, that is.)

And at the time of this writing, there are only 21 items left in the etsy store.  We'll be trying to remedy this ASAP.  Apologies again on the sexy packaging -- it's not as L&V Pretty as we'd like it to be, but we were a bit overwhelmed. :)

THANK YOU for being here, for listening, and for all the feedback.  Who loves ya, baybee?!


p.s.  Mea Culpa:  It's Under a Fiber Moon that talks about japanese rope bondage, not Knit With Cat Hair, who swears she never talked about bondage in her 'cast at all.  Despite the lack of freakiness, we love that one, too.  Tell her to come back. :)

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to your iPod, Lime & Violet are back to discuss the finer points of knee nipples, the perils of Jaeger/Jagger, and why they should just put the latte down and back away slowly.

Platonic Boyfriend makes an appearance to talk to y'all about such things as keeping the power in the ovaries, errant facial hair, and knittin' with balls.  He conveniently sidesteps the question of why he's abandoning us for greener, more southern pastures, though.  Still, we can brand him but good before he leaves....right?

And finally, our song by Derek Sonderfan, "Snake", will help you eradicate those other, more painful, songs that circle around your brain.  There are no instructions, however, for ridding yourself of this one.  At least it's a good song.  Ahem.

An hour and a half of digressionary fun this week, as we're back to our usual format.  We go over the time and space vortex that IS Wal-mart, do some store reviews from Miz V's trip out east, find out whether or not doing an entire sock in 24 hours is even possible, and decide to get help with our fiberporn addiction.

Yeah, right.... we're addicts and proud of it.  (to fiber, at least....)

Music this week is by Psychostick, and is called BEER!.  Intro is, as usual, done by the immensely-sexy-himself canadian-of-doom, Dave, of Chub Creek.  Special thanks to Cheeky Redhead for using that Odeo link over there in the right-hand links bar.  (If you're reading this at the blogspot site: http://limenviolet.blogspot.com, that is...)

Stay tuned to this bat-channel (would that be Sheep-Channel?) on Friday for a whole lot more yarnporn from the last two weeks, and as always, hop over and see us on the messageboards:

Love y'all!  See you next week!

 Happy Halloween, everybody!

This episode, outside of our normal bits, is a special LIME AND VIOLET RADIO THEATER PRODUCTION of TILL BILL.  You just have to listen to get it.

ALSO:

CONTEST!  Hidden within this episode are more than a dozen references to horror movies, both new and old.  List those in an email to violet(at)limenviolet(dot)com.

If you have them all right, your name will go in a drawing for a skein of yarn from <A HREF="http://scoutsswag.com">Scout's Swag</A>, which she graciously donated to the cause without knowing what kind of crazy stuff we were going to come up with in order to give it away.

You have until November 15 to get your answers in.  Drawing will be held on November 18th, and the winner notified shortly thereafter.

Have a spooooooky Halloween!
