Episode #9: Oh, Canada!

This week, Lime and Violet talk about allergy medicine hangovers, interpretive dance, Canadian dimples...umm...urrr...mounties, and of course, yarn. In this particular episode, the girls deviate slightly from their yarn obsession to talk about the wonderful world of artyarns. The intro music is a song by the name of "Everyone Here is Mad" and the closing is "The Fun Song", both from the boys at Chub Creek. All music you hear on the Lime & Violet podcast can be found at the Podsafe Music Network.

This week's works-in-progress aren't much different from last week's. Miss Lime is still working on her Baudelaires for the Baudelaire KAL and trying frantically to finish up her French Market bag. She is being distracted from both of these though due to the strong urge to design more original socks. Miss Violet has finished her French Market bag, is still purling in insane amounts on her Simple Knitted Bodice (for which there is also a KAL), and has once again picked up her RPM socks. Lime was bad and bought some more KnitPicks yarn, some of their new Telemark, and has plans to start working on Marilyn's Not-So-Shrunken Cardigan from The Garter Belt website. Seriously, the buying has got to stop!

The girls have a ton of new yarn porn this week, and it's all about artyarns! The sites include Midnight Sky Fibers, Oh My Designs, Whirlwind Handspuns, Pippy Kneesocks, Spin to Knit, Studioloo, Yarn Wench, and last but certainly not least, Plucky Fluff. Lime & Violet also recount one listener's unfortunate experience at Cottage Knits in Columbus, IN.

We would like to extend a special thanks to Dave from Chub Creek for having the cutest dimples in the galaxy and for providing the new show intro. We also want to thank all of our listeners out there, those who post on the blog, those who visit the message boards, and those who just sit back and enjoy the show.

Thanks for tuning in this week!
