Episode Two: Auntie Alpaca


Welcome to Episode 2!
In this episode I rave about The Girl From Auntie, but neglect to mention the name of the Poncho Sweater, and go on about Alpacas d’Auxvasse (not to mention Ann Mayes).

We’ll also move on to chapters five and six in Pride and Prejudice, narrated by Annie Coleman. And, as always, intro music is provided by GarageBand.com who hosted Joshua Christian’s “Chasing Hiro.”

I'm still having feed issues so don't hesitate to contact me directly if you're having trouble getting the PodCast! Don't want you to miss any of the book!

And this is Gabirel--from whence my Alpaca fleece came.

Episode One: Welcome to My Library

Well, here we are!

I wanted to welcome you all to CraftLit, a Podcast for Crafters. I imagine you’re here because you like to work with your hands, but you also like to read. If so, this is the place for you! Our program will follow a similar pattern every week. After some introductory comments, a web, magazine, or book review (This week Mason-Dixon Knittng), and perhaps a song, I will include a chapter or two from a book. We will listen to that book until we’re done with it. And because I’m a former English teacher, I’ll give you some things to listen for in the chapters we hear--just to give you something else to do while you’re knitting, spinning, crocheting, weaving, or sewing. Any painters?

So.

Get comfortable. Find your tools. Check the volume, and enjoy, with me, the beginning of Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, recorded by Annie Coleman.

Intro music: "Chasing Hiro" by Joshua Christian of Syracuse, NY. I found the music on GarageBand.com.
