Special Thanks to Barbara Paley and Libby Butler-Glick from TNNA and Valerie Tovar from the Mets for their assistance and support!
what a great episode. The photography and sound are the best yet. What a fun day. Thank you for doing this. Although I have to admit that I am a Yankees fan. LOL
Wow, CAT, this one really was the best yet. I’m surprised you were able to sneak in so many clips of the actual game. I guess you’re lucky, being there in NY, it was like a who’s who of the knitting world. I haven’t made it to our local stitch and pitch yet but now I want to next year.
How fun!!
Best,

Another great podcast. I would have loved to have gone to the one at the Washington Nationals but I didn’t hear about until too late. I enjoyed all the interviews and seeing what people were knitting. Thanks for opening my eyes to all sorts of public knitting events.
Great episode, I love your podcast! This one actually made me want to go to a Stitch and Pitch next year and I hate baseball!
