Episode 7 Show Notes
Take me out to Citizens Bank Park. Go Phillies! (You suck!) Also, when in town and needing crab fries, head on over to Chickie and Pete's. Don't forget the cheese!
Check out the heel-less socks and Rowan Soft Tweed at
Rowan Yarns. The yarn is not CURRENTLY listed on their list? Could dryer lint be going the way of the dodo? You can check out the patterns though in Rowan Classic Winter.
I had a photo of Gus modeling a scarf I made in Dryer Lint, but I can't find it anywhere in my photo files. Oh well...
Check out the cabled socks Wendy made for her Daddio in Sarah Dallas Knitting. I linked it through the ELANN site, which is a fabulous place to score cheap yarn and great patterns. Consider this a double bonus!
Wendy is currently undertaking the Pomatomus Socks from Knitty.com.
In honor of Dear old Dad (also known as "Little Petey") these are the tiger socks and the Manos vest
You can find the pattern for the Manos Vest, "Petrol," designed by our friend Carol at Rosie's Yarn Cellar, at Knitty.com as well.
Since I knitted at the ballpark, I stumbled upon the following link
TKGA Stitch and Pitch. So if you live in one of these major league towns, go out, route for your team and knit. Or as I say, "drinkin beer, watching baseball and knitting..."
Toe Up Sock Class
For a brief tutorial on the middle eastern cast on, check out this great article on
Knitting History which includes the middle eastern cast on. This is also from Knitty.com
Or, check out Ethnic Socks and Stockings by Priscilla Gibson Roberts
Yarn Sluts: The sluts go shopping...Main Line Yarn Shop Tour
Here are the shops we visited
The Technicolor Sheep, Havertown, Pa
Ewe and I, Bryn Mawr, Pa
Noble Knits, Malvern, Pa
We also visited Frou Frou, in Berwyn, PA. They do not have a website I can locate. We TRIED to visit Busy Body's, in Haverford, but as we said on the Podcast, they are only open M-F from 10-430 and some of us work. They also DO NOT have a website.
Some of the yarns we talked about
Fiesta Yarns
Find OPAL yarns at Simply Sock Yarn.com. I love this online shop! I highly recommend it!
Cherry Tree Hill SuperSock; You can also find a photo of the Elfin Lace Shawl on Cherry Tree Hill's website, just look under "patterns" tab!
Lorna's Laces
Colinette Yarns
Manos Del Uraguay, Rosie's Yarn Cellar carries the COMPLETE color palatte of this AWESOME yarn
HOW ABOUT MY NEW KNITTING BAG /PICNIC BASKET
Provence from Lantern Moon.
And if you ever need a yummy snack while driving along Lancaster Avenue, Wendy and I highly recommend Peace a Pizza and Hope's Cookies.
I think you devoted listeners have your fill of fun things to look at from the Podcast; until the next episode "Knitty D goes on a yarn diet..."
