With the first anniversary of the podcast fast approaching, I thought it was time for a quick recap of some of the episodes that have gone before. Plus we take a look at a Kim Hargreaves’ pattern book, a karma-tastic British yarn, and an alpaca that’s following in David Hasselhoff’s footsteps.

Electric Sheep Reviews
Nice things listeners have said:
"I love this and I don't knit."
The iPaper's 'Download of the Day' 26th October 2010
"How can you possibly beat an intelligent, articulate, witty Brit who talks about knitting and can play the ukuele?"
"I have a sneaking suspicion that the podcaster known as Hoxton Handmade is really a collaboration between Stephen Fry writing the 'casts and Keeley Hawes narrating them."

great episode, as always
i checked out the Ethical Twist site – they have no “where to buy” info, sadly, so i don’t know where to buy! and their “contact us” form doesn’t submit. dang. does this mean i’ll have to phone overseas just to ask them where i can purchase their yarn?
do you or anyone know where i can find this yarn?
thanks and keep up the good work,

Ursa

Hi Ursa – sorry new comments are automatically held for admin approval to avoid spam.
Looks like there are several online retailers for Ethical Twist if you try Google.
wwwknitstation.com stocks it and seems to ship overseas (although they call it ‘ladies yarn’ which I don’t understand – since when does yarn come with a gender specification?!)

Not sure if there are stockists outside the UK though. Hope that helps!
