I’ve not been a huge fan of podcasts, even though I know they were really popular there for awhile. I am a visual person, so for me to just sit and listen to people talk is not comfortable. I have to be “doing” something or “seeing” something, but then I discovered the Yarn Craft podcasts over at the Lion Brand site.

The podcasts include yarn crafters Liz Shaw & Zontee Hou who talk about, what else, but yarn crafting, including knit and crochet, twice a month. They run 30 minutes long and are teamed up with a blog post full of links to the projects and other items and web sites they may mention.

I’ve gotten to the point now were I really look forward to listening to these. I click on the links and open a new browser tab while listening so I can see whatever it is they are talking about, and I am also usually doing some kind of craft as well, like making jewelry or crocheting, while listening on my computer. Since my computer is in my studio, this is pretty convenient.
