Summary

 

This week we bring you our usual segments, some prizes to share, and a link to a funny internet game show that includes the Yarniacs. Gayle and I were quite tickled upon listening to this feature and hope you will get a laugh out of it too. The fact that there were groans and possible Yarniacs in the audience just makes us smile! (See warning below! While the website page is family friendly, the audio linked from the page is not.) The days are getting darker, the weather getting cooler and possibly wetter. I hope you manage to fit some calming knitting time into your busy end-of-the-year schedules. Enjoy!

Hello and welcome to the Yarniaks podcast.

0:10.7

This is episode 77, which we are recording on Tuesday, December 9th, 2014.

0:16.9

I'm Gail.

0:17.6

And I'm Charlene.

0:18.6

And today there may be a little different sound quality. I

0:21.5

somehow managed to forget to bring the microphone when I arrived to Charlene's

0:26.8

house to record today my face is turning red just because who forgets their

0:30.8

microphone so we're using the inline microphone on my computer and fingers

0:37.0

cross it it sounds good.

0:38.3

Yeah.

0:39.3

And before we get started, I did want to make two comments.

0:42.3

One, people had quite a few technical difficulties with the last episode, and we never did

0:47.8

diagnose exactly what happened, but we are working on it.

0:51.3

1:11.5

1:16.8

think it would wear well for his type of usage. So he'll wear it pretty hard, you know,

1:22.8

a lot of friction and tension and things like that and I think it would pill pretty badly for

1:27.2

him.

1:27.6

So it is super wash yarn.
