Who knew discussing knitting needles “ length” could be so hysterical. Thank you for the laugh out loud I have to order 9” circulars for my sleeves . I’ll never look at 9” circulars the same. Great knitting by both of you.

[@NeedlesattheReadyPodcast]

Lol 😂 Thanks Denise!!

[@brittanyolsen6325]

Lol 😂 that’s so funny 🥰🥰

[@henriettehald]

I too am hooked on the nine inch voice in my head every time I think of sock knitting :-)))) It ha become "a thing" and I cant help but talk about it every time I talk socks in my own podcast.

Thanks guys for another great episode. Ray, your Opus shawl is really beautiful. You can do the sweater, just take it step by step. Kevin, you're going to be looking at that Stephen West project for a long time so how about pick a skein out of your stash that you cannot wait to work with. Then pick out one more skein that goes amazingly with the first skein. Start there. Don't worry about the rest. Once the first two start going together, the other 3 will choose themselves. Good luck!

Your banter, your side looks (Kevin!), your singing (Ray... or the podcaster formerly known as Ray as that might not be your real name as you said in a previous episode!) are just immensely entertaining. Your knits are inspiring: I have so many projects in my notebook to make based on what I've seen from you both. I bought some yarn today from Doodle Bug (50% off sale, what a coup!) and am still waiting for the Chip basket/bag to become a thing (for sale that is). On to episode 47!

Thank you guys for coming up with some other ideas for the accessories KAL. I did have a bit of a look at Ravelry myself but was struggling to come up with something. It didn’t help that I was homeschooling my 6 year old grandson for the last two weeks. I am already well into the second of a pair of socks and I do need to knit a tam o’shanter hat for a steampunk costume I am assembling. So that will keep me busy for a little while. The knitted jewellery idea was interesting too. I have recently purchased a set of pompom makers so some cute pompom jewellery could be an option.

Doughall was 15 years olf, and he had many, many health challenges,skin problems, lack of fur, thyroid, allergies, eyesight, General ageing, etc, we had to drive to the US to pick them both up in different States.
