iapm35:Spin Control
Today we hear from Dee’s kids about stash management. Two of my New England podcasting friends share some of there thoughts (CC CHAMPAN & Chris from The Finacial Aid Podcast). I have three knitting podcast promos, WOW, from Stitch Stud and His Bride, Knitting Time Together, & SubKnit.
I got to hang our with the Shiela and Jonathon Bosworth at there home and record and interview about them and there company, Journey Wheel.
Finally, since the show time gets away from me anyway I play ‘Am I awake’ from one of my all time favorite bands, They Might Be Giants.
Please contribute to the show with comments either here in the post, by email at 2skiens@itsapurlman.com, or using the NEW voicemail number at 206-888-4187. I am looking for what’s on your needle’s because everyone knows what’s on mine.. the chuppah, and it’s not that exciting.
:NOTE:
I had some technical difficulties getting this up on the websiet on Sunday, so it took a whole day to get the mp3 out. The good news is that I am using a smaller file type to make it easier to download. Just thought you should know.
:NOTE2:
Apparently the new format does not work well with the player. So I will diabled it. Please download the show and listen to it on your computer.
:NOTE3:
Charles’ website about knitting and spanish knitting is located here.

Hi,
My name is Susan Ripley and I am a working with Ripley Designs, Inc. on gathering knitting and crochet patterns for the 2009 Pattern-A-Day Calendars from Accord Publishing. I am contacting you today in the hopes that you will submit a pattern or hang the attached flyer somewhere in your store or post it to your website / BLOG to let your customers know about the design contest and the chance to get their designs published. You could also email the flyer if you have a mailing list. Patterns are accepted from individuals, shops, charities and yarn companies. There are no restrictions and the patterns can also be something that is currently being distributed for free.
Some of the yarn shops that have worked with us in the past have also offered fun pattern design/writing classes. This is a great way to get customers into your store while taking advantage of this great contest. $500 will be awarded as First place for both calendars; there are also 2nd and 3rd place prizes; and all contributors whose patterns are used will receive a 2009 calendar.
Please go to our website at http://www.knittingpatternaday.com and learn more about the submission requirements and our contest. If you have any questions, please contact me and I will gladly answer your questions. If your email program stripped the PDF, you can download the flyer at http://knittingpatternaday.com/images/designcontest.pdf
Thanks,
Susan Ripley

I thoroughly enjoyed your interview with the Bosworths. I love their spindles, and it was nice to listen to what inspires them.
