Welcome to The Yarniacs Awards show! It's our 7th anniversary of podcasting! And you know Gayle and I love to party, and by party, we mean sit and share our knitting adventures with you, dear listener. So celebrate along with us as we announce some of our "bests" of the previous year. It was pouring rain while we were recording. So you may hear the ambient noise of rain on the roof and the sounds of my housebound pets. As always, we love that you are joining us.

The Yarniacs Episode 181: Knitting for Paws and Charity! Dec 07, 2018

Show notes

When we recorded this episode I had a cold, and somehow imagined my voice to be much more froggy than in reality it sounds. I'm glad, though my overall stuffiness probably caused me to participate less than usual. Fortunately, we are joined by Monika from CompassioKnitfor the final segment of the show. We talk about knitting for charities, and about Monika's CompassionKnit charity located in San Francisco. If you are looking for a way to give to charity for the holidays or at any time of year, knitting for charities is a great option. Monika's CompassionKnit Ravelry group can be found here. - Sharlene
