First, a foole for math makes sweater design easier – Jacey Boggs is Insubordiknit – Sheffield Knitting Group Podcast Review – Carrie Anne Dennison hosts a new UK Knitting Podcast – Cookies to Debra Bronow and Carol Sulcoski for their wonderful essays – Special thanks to Sage Tyrtle of Quirky Nomads for her inspired reading of Carol’s essay.

Hi Brenda. I’m pretty late coming to this one (started a new job in March that screwed up my listen-while-walking-to-work rhythm, and am just catching up), but thought I’d give my two cents re: repeating music.

I’d vote for no repetition. I like that you play music because it introduces me to artists and songs I wouldn’t hear otherwise. I dislike some of the songs you pick, and love others to the point of obsessing. When I don’t like one, I fast-forward (yay, podcasts!). When I love one, I buy it. In some cases, I just go back to the original podcast for one or two more listens until I’ve made my peace with it.

So repeating would mean listening to something I own, something I’ve sated my desire for, or something I’d fast-forward the second time anyway.

Then again, I never was much of a radio listener.

(And thanks for the podcast; I missed it while I was “away”)
