UPDATE: There appears to be a problem with this episode. I’m aware of it. Some people have been able to get the file, others are getting a 404 message. Things were working fine this morning, and a few hours later they weren’t. I’m trying to chase the problem with Libsyn. I’ll keep you posted.
UPDATE: Fixed!

I’d love some Color by Kristin yarn!

What a very charming and inspiring conversation with Kristin. I just loved hearing her “at home” instead of in a studio, so much more personal and real. It was a wooly audio version of “today’s sweater.” Thanks, Brenda.
Great episode, as always. Thanks, Brenda
Lovely postcard. Thanks. I’m looking forward to hearing some postcards from Canada!
Really nice postcard. Western Mass is one of my most fav places and I enjoyed the “ear candy”.
It’s great to hear you again – thanks for the great podcast! You kept me company whilst finishing some embroidery for a cariad
Loved hearing about the lambs in sweaters, I must check that out.
Beautiful colors. I’ll have to take a road when I am in Mass in November.
Brenda’s voice and words are wonderful listening. Kristen’s colors are beautiful and if her yarn is the same as Julia’s yarn it will be a pleasure to use.
Lovely episode from 2 of my favorite knitterati! Thanks.
So glad when I find out you have a new episode available.
I so enjoyed the postcard from Kristin, a little personal peek into someone’s life. It would be such a treat to get some of her yarn. Thanks for the opportunity.
Have long been a fan of Kristen Nicholas. Her colorwork makes my heart sing! Have truly enjoyed your podcasts too, Brenda. Thank you for all you give to us thru your words and music
It was so nice to meet you, Brenda, when you were in our area and I loved hearing about your visit to stay with Kristen. Can’t wait to see her new line of yarns – I haven’t run across them yet (would love to win them, too!)
Well, I didn’t know that Romneys came from the Marshes… but Cheviots (Chee-vee-ots, if it’s promounced like the hills) won’t be so keen on wet feet? Lovely postcard!
Great episode as usual Brenda. Kristen’s use of colour is sooo inspiring. Thanks for the great podcast!
Brenda, loved hearing about Kristin’s farm and was thrilled to hear that her yarn line, which I’ve never had a chance to try, is back. Would love to win the goodie bag!
Look forward to your future postcards–I took your class at the Lion Brand Studio so hearing this brings back fond memories of that afternoon.
Great pictures.. lovely yarn.

WOW. And here I thought my all-red bedroom was something daring!
Really inspiring episode – thank you Brenda.
Lovely episode – I’d love to see the lambs in sweaters. And her living room – the COLOR! I am working through my fear of color, and would love some lovely yarn to help… hint hint.
Oh my goodness – I just got lost on her blog *drooling* over all of the color in her house ! It’s awesome.
