  1. Wow! I am excited about your podcast cause you're a flygirl and a knitter! I once had aspirations to become a pilot. And to this day my annual birthday wish is to get a wild ride on an acrobatic plane.
    Anyway, I really love the segment names.
    Can you post a still pic of the Cherry Blossom fiber after its spun? I think that is so pretty and would like to see how that turns out.

  2. I absolutely loved your first podcast! You were warm, funny and genuine. My 14yo son really liked how you incorporated all the flying terms into your segments. I hope you keep it up, this was wonderful!

  5. Great podcast! I love to fly and knit. (don't get to fly as much as I would like to). You seem to be very comfortable in front of the camera. Keep them coming, I'll be watching.
