2 Knit Lit Chicks

We are so sorry about episode 307, which we recorded on Thanksgiving and discovered had been mostly erased by the time it was posted on November 30.  We promise to have our family redo their Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down segment when we celebrate Christmas in a few weeks, and we have added comments to our usual star ratings about each of the books we read below. As we announced in October after 14 years and over 300 episodes, we have made the decision to wind down the podcast over the next year and finish in September 2026, our fifteenth anniversary.  We have loved making the podcast and all of the people it has brought into our lives!  We want to assure you that this decision wasn't made because of any kind of health reasons - we are simply both feeling that it's time to bring the project to a close.  What we don't want to see end is our wonderful community - we will continue to see you on our Ravelry boards, at fiber events throughout the year, and on our weekly Zoom call ...
