Hello and welcome to the Yarniaks podcast. This is episode 102, which we are recording on Tuesday, November 24th, 2015. I'm Gail. And I'm Charlene. And just so you know, Boo is walking around in in the background so if you hear tinkling and you think something's following you it is background noise from the podcast and we actually have my other cat Popo sitting with us today or sleeping with us sleeping with us yes he's very quiet yeah they're both in because it happens to be raining today.

It's fabulous.

Everyone in Northern California is very excited.

And every time you go any place, everyone is smiling saying it's raining, it's raining.

So.

Yep.

And people are driving like absolute idiots.

Yeah.

That's the only problem with the rain is people cannot handle it.

And also the fact that it's a holiday week.

All those people who don't normally go out and grocery shop are out.

It's true.

It's Thanksgiving week here in the U.S., so it's the beginning of the holidays.

And Charlene pointed out when we were talking about the date before we started recording,

one month till

Christmas.

I'm shaking my head and it's down like, oh no, a month until Christmas.

So anyway, what are you wearing today?

I am wearing my cupido or cupido cowl by Hiroko Fukatsu.

Now, Heroku Fukatsu is the designer of the Hito Fudi Cardigan, which Gail and I both have

knit and really loved, and this simple cowl is knit in the round with a repeating stitch pattern,

so it's wonderfully quick and delightful. And I knit mine in a yarn produced by a small yarn producer called Ravelling Rose, and it is reclaimed
