I see so many people talk about podcasts they listen to. Are you one of those people? What podcasts do you listen to regularly? What do you like about them? I’d like to check some out, so… reccommendations anyone?
Where do you knit? Are you an ‘in public” knitter? Do people have strange comments for you? Since I’m on a modified bedrest I don’t go out too often lately, but the last time was when I had to do the blood glucose gestational diabetes test and wait in the waiting room for an hour. I was working on piggle actually. Several really nice older ladies said it was nice to see a young woman knitting. Do you get good comments or bad ones? Or both!
Last but not least, what’s on your needles right now? I’d like to see!

I’m curious about the knitting podcasts as well, I look forward to seeing what people suggest! I do listen to one or two *music* podcasts (MN Public Radio’s Song of the Day from the Current, and the World Cafe podcast from NPR – they’re both great for new music).
I just started knitting in public – I joined a local knitting group, and we meet at different coffee shops. We’ve only met twice so far, and both times we’ve had people make positive comments. They’ve all been from men too, and they seemed to think it was really cool that we were knitting
I don’t think I’ve ever got a bad comment about knitting. Though, I did have a friend point out to me one time that I like things that older people like (“like knitting”, she says).
On my needles: The Classic Sock by Nancy Bush! They’ll be done by the weekend!
And last but not least, Hi! I found your blog on wordpress by browsing the “knitting” tag

Woops, the last part of my comment implies that I just found your blog – but I just realized that you’ve already commented on my blog, and I’ve been to yours before too! Silly me.
