Episode 1: Podcast Show Notes

Hi there, I just recorded and published my first podcast! Yikes wow I did it and boy was it fun. If you haven’t gotten a look at it here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjyUezPJSMg
Since this is my first podcast it’s a bit long, I had so much to say :) Going forward my goal is to be around 30 to 40min long and every other week. But hey who knows I might get an extra one in if time allows. Please pass on your comments regarding my first podcast. I would love to make it better where I can. Subscribe to my podcast if you like it and join my new Raverly group.

Hey I created my very first podcast on Youtube

Hi everyone,

Well due to all the amazing knitting podcasts I have seen on Youtube, I have been inspired to produce my own. As you probably have noticed by following my blog, that I don't write very well and very often either, I am more of a talker than writer. I am excited to meet more knitters and quilters through my podcast. I know that I am not a professional podcaster so please be patient as I work out the bugs. I technically didn't even do any editing on this one lol. Yeah partially so you can laugh at me. I like to laugh and have no problem laughing at myself. I hope you like it. and please pass on your comments.

Podcast #1: Ready Set Go

Show notes coming soon.
