Episode 5 - Show Notes

Finished Objects
Hermione's Everyday Socks - finally finally finally finished (although, I still haven't added a FO picture yet, I'm pretty sure as soon as I was done, I wove in the ends and stuffed them in my sock drawer cause I was so frustrated with them.  They needed time out.)

What's on my Needles
Hawkeye Socks (basic vanilla 64 stitch sock) in Gnome Acre House Gnome

Geekery: Part II: Spoilers
In which I gush about X-Men: Days of Future Past
I am so sorry about my neighbor's bird.  You can hear him pretty regularly throughout the entire episode, but he's especially bad during this segment.  He's a rescue and their trying to get him to adjust and he's having a really hard time.

Episode 5 - Holy Knitting Batman!

Segments include: Finished Objects, What's on my Needles, New to the Queue, Pretty, Craftiness, Geekery, Pull List, What am I drinking, Geekery: Part 2: Spoilers

This episode is much more knitting heavy than the past couple of episodes and a bit longer, I hope can keep my knitting mojo up this high in the future.  Also, I got a new mic so the sound quality is much better, however it picks up a lot of background noise (cars, my ceiling fan, and my neighbor's bird, etc.) so bear with me until I can work out those kinks.

Show notes will be up soon.  Enjoy!!

And I’m kind of grumpy cause I really wanted to cast on the Icarus tee soon, but I decided to check the pattern notes and the gauge is different from the yarn I had in mind. So, I might try to do some math. Or just cast on Gemini by Jane Richmond from the 2012 Spring/Summer Knitty instead
