I am still around, for those of you who have not heard, I have a bun in the oven and that's why ya'll havn't seen any podcast's latley. I am not gone for good, or even for long but with the trip to Europe in December and then my trip to Australia in March life was kinda crazy (not to mention durring all that being in the first trimester!).

There are fiber activities going on at pixiepurls, and I have a outline nearly finished for a new podcast, so I'll be back soon. Please stay tuned! I bet you can't wait for all those sweet baby knits, I liked baby knits even before I was pregnant. Quick, sweet and easy to knit!

Hey guys, I plan to get a podcast out the door before I leave for Europe, sorry for the delay. Goodnews is I have enough content for atleast 2 podcasts so I might be able to squeeze more then one out! Good luck in all your holiday shopping, thanks!

On average right now I am getting 1,500 downloads per episode during the first month! That's INSANE people. I am shocked by how many people are listening to me! That means I have had over 22,500 downloads total! Wowza! I want to say thanks to you guys for listening and e-mailing me. I loved all the e-mail about what you guys do when listening. Driving, walking and working seem to be the main ones.

If I actually podcast weekly I could easily double my download numbers. Maybe when it gets colder and I am inside a bit more, and this week I am working on cleaning up my fiber room which will get me OUT of the bedroom when I podcast (worse audio in that room anyways). So far I am amazed I haven't used up my banwidth, go Dreamhost!

Well a lot of people use the whole "iKnit" thing, so I figured I would join the crowd because I need some sort of badge and it just works well because of the whole iPod craze.
