Well, is hard just to pick one thing. One of the things that I like the best is your tone of voice, is soothing and I love to listen to you and on top of that you are talking about knitting. I know we are supposed to tell you about past episodes, but I am thinking of the future, I woul like to propose more spinning related podcasts. I am getting into that and would love to hear your experience when you were a beginner spinner.

Well I love all your podcast, but I remember and can not forget the impression Kelly had in me when i heard her first podcast, I can not forget that I was taking therapy for my injured foot and even doe I was in pain the feeling about this hearing her talk about how she started knitting and about were she lives and all that make me want to keep on knitting I had just starting to knit and here were I live (PR) there is not much knitting and her enthusiasm made me feel like I was part of her world too and my pain has a lot better and I can not forget about when ever she started talking about Elizabeth Zimmerman I immediate bought her DVD and felt in love with her too. I wanted to e-mail her and did not know she had pass, made me love her more. Thank you Kelly for all this 100 wonderful podcast and Congratulations.

I liked the episode when Kelly said she goes to Hawaii every Christmas and knits. That is a happy picture to imagine and what I want in my future.

Hurray for #100! I absolutely love the podcast and hope it keeps going for a long time to come. It's so informational and educational. I love hearing about the lace shawls that Kelley makes. I think one of my favorite podcast was the one about knitting for baby where you interviewed the 4 ladies and they talked about their experiences. I have a toddler and although I haven't knit too much for her so far, I could relate to the sizing issues. I too have knit stuff that ended up too small or too big for my daughter. :) I also love the ones with Tina where you talk Knit Picks stuff. The yarns, the tools (that was a favorite to hear how others use different tools, or what your preferred tools are), color concepts. Those are always fun!

I will definitely have to go through the archives to learn more, but I loved the episode where we learned how a yarn line is developed.

As a new Ipod owner, I've newly discovered the joys of knitting and listening to podcasts (actually today's my first one). I agree with all your favorite book choices in #100, they are all invaluable resources and wonderful inspiration. I'm going back to your favorite episodes first and then will start at #1 and hopefully work through them all. I have a new baby girl in the family and so will be knitting a lot of fun little things. Thank you for doing 100 episodes to keep me company.

I really enjoyed the colorwork podcast and the tip to convert color charts to greyscale when picking out colors. Congratulations on your 100th podcast! I have enjoyed them all!

yahh for 100 podcasts! I really enjoyed hearing about the different types of sheep and the structure of yarn.

Hi Kelly!
Thank you for all the hours you spend producing the podcast. It really adds something to the lives of those of us who seem to have more time for listening or reading about crafting than actually doing it. I love the podcasts about you organizing your projects - you feel like a kindred soul. And it's lovely to hear about your travels and about running the company. I really enjoy when Tina joins you, she has a great voice. I'd like to hear more about spinning, since that's a hobby I'm planning to take up soon. I imagine we'll hear more about that if/when Knitpicks ever starts carrying wheels and fiber. Otherwise, you're creating competition with your own yarn company by encouraging people to make their own handspun! Thanks for the recommendations on Knitting Fiction and the audio books. Seems like the best ones you hear about by "word of mouth". Congratulations on Podcast 100 - I can't wait to listen to it on the way home from work. If you were producing Sitcoms, you'd be eligible for syndication!

Mary from Fredericksburg, VA
