Episode 51--The Chrissy Gardiner interview

In this episode we have an interview with Chrissy Gardiner.  We chatted last Thursday about her book--Toe Up! I'll be starting a KAL for a sock from the book on the Ravelry group.  Will you be joining us?

There is a contest along with this interview.  You have to listen to find out the details;)

In knitting I finished the "Baby Mine" sweater.  I'll give it it's own post so I can show you a proper picture.

In Spinning I am looking forward to Ravelympics starting Feb 12th!  I'm cleaning up some bobbins and sampling to make decisions for spinning some beautiful Polwarth top.  I'll show you the results next week.

In Food I share some ideas for cooking vegan meals with green bell peppers, kohlrabi and eggplant.  One recipe idea I forgot to mention for kohlrabi is a raw salad with very thinnly sliced kohlrabi, fennel and green apple.  Tossed them in a lemon viniagrette with some toasted hazelnuts.  yum!

This weekend in Portland the third gathering of the Community Sock Club will be gathering at Gino's for lunch.  We are already taking names for next Fall when the Made in Oregon club goes on the road and locals can enjoy it here as well:)
