Listen here.
Latte: On Abby's needles: Clandestine socks, Intrepid Traveler socks, Lisianthus shawl. On Ben's needles: Daybreak, Java socks.

Included in his new acquisitions are: Derby shoes, a bow tie, and some very LOUD suspenders! Abby is excited about the return of Doctor Who, and the Signature Needles she tried out at Sock Summit.
Tip Jar: Ben says: pick s yarn that is out of your comfort zone: make something from it! Abby reminds you that you can enlarge charts and make notes on patterns to make things easier to see.
I can't wait to listen to the new episode. It's downloaded to my droid and ready for a listen. I only wish I had a longer drive to work so I could hear the entire episode in one drive, but this way it gets spread out. My knitting mojo is back...went to my SnB for the first time in months (been working alot lately and haven't been able to break out early to get to my Tuesday night SnB until last night. Yours is definitely my favorite podcast. I love the back and forth and since I have a son approximately Ben's age, I can relate to the dynamics of your relationship. Thanks for all you do
