| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Yarniaks podcast. |
| 0:11.5 | This is episode number 256, which we are recording on Thursday, October 21st, 2021. |
| 0:18.8 | I'm Gail. |
| 0:19.5 | And I'm Charlene. |
| 0:25.4 | And it's finally raining in Santa Cruz. Oh my gosh. It's just joyous. Love the rain. It is. So happy to see it. It's very nice. And I'm hoping that it will |
| 0:31.7 | finally be enough to put out the last of the fires. Yes, I hope so too. Fingers crossed. Yeah. So what are you wearing in our moist weather? |
| 0:41.5 | Well, I want to tell you about what I have been wearing because it's a non-traditional |
| 0:49.0 | thing to wear, I suppose, but I have been wearing my blanket. |
| 0:54.7 | Oh. |
| 0:59.1 | And not even a slanket, but a real blanket. |
| 1:02.2 | I've been wearing my on the porch blanket. I was sitting, working at the dining table yesterday, and it was cold. Yesterday was one of the days when it was really cold. It was |
| 1:16.3 | jizzling off and on. And I realized I didn't have to sit there cold. I could get my blanket |
| 1:22.8 | and cover myself with it. And I was very happy. I say blanket culture, yay. I agree, 100% |
| 1:34.0 | blankets as as garments. Work as garments. That's the word I'm looking for. Thank you. Blankets as |
| 1:41.2 | garments. Hey, work at home culture, right? Exactly. Exactly. If it wasn't for Leroy, |
| 1:48.0 | I would have a blanket at like three different places in the house. I would have a blanket. But I can't |
| 1:54.1 | do that right now. So I just like have to stash them in the closet during the day. Yeah. Yeah. So I was |
| 1:59.0 | very happy. So that is my on the porch blanket, |
| 2:03.3 | which is a pattern by 5410 studio. And it was a free pattern on rivalry that I have made twice. |
| 2:13.4 | The first time I made it, it was a gift. The second time I made it. I made it with a yarn that I truly love that had been in my stash for, I believe, |
| 2:24.5 | eight or nine years. |
| 2:26.1 | And I finally decided that loving the yarn, but having it sit in the stash is really silly. |
