I was sitting on my deck knitting away yesterday and listened to 2 episodes. All caught up now. Your photo tips are very inspiring. I got out my digital camera and will be listening for more tips. I had only been using my iPhone camera for the last year but now want to try for better FO shots!<br /><br />If you are still taking names for Alana's pattern giveaway, I love the Cedar Leaf Shawlette. I am listening intently for your final decision on the sleeves of your Rocky Coast, too. BTW, love the photo of the clogs!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17294042979849117105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439804336171088034.post-59101750536056403962012-06-14T15:01:01.736-04:002012-06-14T15:01:01.736-04:00I've knit a few of Alana's patterns but I ...I've knit a few of Alana's patterns but I think the next will be the Gnarled Oak Cardi.

I'm even looking into local photography courses that I could take. So thank you for igniting that interest for me:-) I'm excited that you are doing a contest along with Alana from Never Not Knitting. I love her patterns and her podcast/blog. I love the wee wildflower cardigan and the adult version too!

The topics are interesting & I'm a big fan of longer knitting podcasts so I can get lots of knitting done while listening. Some music would be an awesome addition.<br /><br />Thanks to you & Alana for offering a giveaway, this one is huge! I love all of Alana's patterns & have knit her Cedar Leaf shawlette. My favorite Coastal Knits pattern by far is the Gnarled Oak cardigan. It might have to be the next thing I cast on!<br /><br />Lots of luck with your podcast & I can't wait to hear more!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01028297368846146529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439804336171088034.post-35740460484911675922012-06-09T12:09:37.293-04:002012-06-09T12:09:37.293-04:00I love your podcast!

My great aunt always talked about "Down Cellar" but our family has no east coast connections :-) She was the only one who used that term. <br />I love hearing about knitting and photography and your adventures.

I like Alana's podcast as well as yours. Keep them coming! <br /><br />I think your show is great. I have been getting into the video casts because it is nice to actually see what people are talking about, but the audio ones are great for on the go or doing two things at once. I also really like hearing about your crafty adventures, as I am learning (slowly) about sewing.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06254910693294026963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439804336171088034.post-85569416990205138632012-06-06T11:24:56.106-04:002012-06-06T11:24:56.106-04:00I'm loving your podcast - just found you withi...I'm loving your podcast - just found you within the past month & am looking forward to more!

I will definitely be listening again, although usually I prefer podcasts with 2 knitters chatting, I really like that you also discuss other interests that intersect with knitting like photography. <br />As far as my favourite Coastal Knits pattern goes, I really like the Wildflower cardigan but am pretty firmly anti-seaming, so I'd love to knit the Oak one instead.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17883790051813222445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439804336171088034.post-29782401761075578312012-06-05T17:23:02.600-04:002012-06-05T17:23:02.600-04:00I love the Spring Garden Tee, and I have knit the ...I love the Spring Garden Tee, and I have knit the kids version of that.

I have to listen to the previous episodes now!<br />So far, I love the knitting content (maybe I wish it would be a bit more, like what are you planning to knit next, or talking more about the yarns and others - but once again, I just listened to one episode...). I'm surprised I enjoyed the photography content: I'm not good at taking pictures and usually, I don't bring my camera anywhere, as I know my pictures suck; but thanks to your tips, taking decent pictures doesn't look that complicated anymore, and with a few tricks like that, I could even succeed... Listening to you makes me want to give it a try and bring my camera outside to play! On the worse case, my pictures will still be lousy and I can erase them ;) So thanks for the enabling!<br />Thanks for the opportunity to win a pattern from Alana Dakos! I never knit anything from her (yet), but really like her designs (I'm a huge fan of her slouchy hats). I think my favorite (and most season appropriate is the Spring Garden Tee), but I had a hard time to pick between this one and the Cloudy Day hat!<br />Can't wait to listen to more episodes!C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12495213940446805913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439804336171088034.post-16632711364181839492012-06-04T21:28:58.855-04:002012-06-04T21:28:58.855-04:00Jen, I really like your podcast and look forward t...Jen, I really like your podcast and look forward to new episodes. I love that you're based in Boston (I'm 30 miles away in Stow), and that you talk a bit about local things. Also love the photography segment, as I'm a photographer myself, getting to know my new digital SLR. As far as I'm concerned, there can't be too much photography content.<br />As to Alana's patterns, wow!, that's a tough choice. I have a little niece I'd like to knit for, so I guess I'd choose the Wee Wildflower cardi.<br />Keep up the good work!<br />blbblbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05302301703074614337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439804336171088034.post-81323229683762501832012-06-04T17:52:23.347-04:002012-06-04T17:52:23.347-04:00My favorite Coastal Knits pattern is definitely th...My favorite Coastal Knits pattern is definitely the Rocky Coast Cardigan, though the Bayside pullover is also in my queue.<br /><br />Thank you so much for such a great podcast and the amazing giveaway.

Your little tips inspire me to continue doing so in the future.<br /><br />Finally, I also moved away from Boston a few years ago, so I love your tidbits about Boston.
