Hi Susan,
I've just finished watching your latest episode - it was lovely as always. It looks like you had a great time at the retreat. I've never been to any type of crafting retreat so it was very interesting to hear about it and see the photos you posted.

knittingrandma on ravelry
Wow! Love this newsy post and your new sweater, Susie! So beautiful! Love the deep, rich color and texture of the honeycomb stitch pattern and your explanation of how the seam helps to structure and carry the weight of the hood. Love all your giveaways, too. I'm 3/4 of the way through my first baby dragon, the smaller version. Didn't read the special directions soon enough, so his snout is a little too long, but still so adorable. I know my granddaughter is going to love it, and the next one will be even better!
Blessings,

Hi Susan!
OK, I'm telling you something good (song sung by Chaka Khan--we must be the same age!).....I love your podcasts because I'm always chuckling along side with you, we must have the same quirky sense of humor, lol. ;-) Anyhoot.....your hooded cardigan looks fantastic, that color purple is my favorite. I can't knit sweaters for myself because I'm hot - flashing now, you know, hormones. I currently knit custom sized weenie dog sweaters for my Etsy shop! I hope your days will ease up for you, sounds like you need an assistant. Just remember....take one day at a time & don't forget to......breathe. :-) Take care of yourself! ~Cora K.
Great give away..Enjoy all your pod casts Susan.
