| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Knitmore Girls Podcast, a mother-daughter knitting production. This is episode |
| 0:12.3 | 90 and has been sponsored by Abstract Fiber, Sheiknitz, and Pearl Essence Yarns. In lieu of |
| 0:19.3 | our regular segments we'll be doing a quick chat about what we're working on and our |
| 0:23.2 | Stitches West 2010 recap. Let's chat. Welcome, welcome, if this is your first time |
| 0:30.7 | listening, welcome to the podcast and if you're a returning listener, welcome back. Hey, Mom, |
| 0:35.3 | how's it going? Awesome. Oh, what an exciting weekend we had. Yes, are you as exhausted with all |
| 0:45.2 | the fun you had? I really, really am. We should talk about what we're working on first and then do |
| 0:50.0 | the great big stitches recap. What do you think? That's an excellent plan. Awesome. Do you want to start? |
| 0:56.0 | Sure. So I had been working on my Olympic Philosopher's sweater. You finished your project, right? |

| 1:28.4 | all mindless and boring stuff. I picked something that I knew would keep my attention until the very |
| 1:34.0 | end because you have the cable at the bottom of the sweater and then the cuffs and then you have |
| 1:40.0 | some shaping as you go, which is, you know, not mindless mindless because you've got shaping, but |
| 1:44.8 | what are you working on for your Olympic project? Oh, of course. Sorry. I am knitting the |
| 1:49.3 | Seneca sweater out of Made in Brooklyn by Brooklyn, Brooklyn Tweed, who is Jared Flood. |
| 1:55.0 | And the sweater itself is really lovely. It's a yoke style sweater with |
| 1:59.4 | what looks like three different cables on the yoke, but it's actually only two different kinds of |
| 2:03.6 | cables. And I'm knitting it. I knitted it out of my hand spun from a sheep named Duchess from |
| 2:09.3 | Jean Neer. And basically the Olympic project was to cast on through binding off, |
| 2:16.5 | grafting the end arms and weaving in the ends before closing, the end of closing ceremonies during |
