Welcome to the first episode of The Greenprint! In this inaugural episode, we dive into the incredible story of Raglan Golf Club in Monmouthshire, Wales—a course that has truly risen from the ashes. After closing its doors following the COVID-19 pandemic, Raglan was purchased in early 2024 by a group hailing from Monmouthshire, and its rebirth is nothing short of inspiring. Lucy, the driving force behind the revitalization, shares her journey in transforming the course from a state of disrepair to one that's ready to open in early April. From rebuilding greens to adding new tees and bunkers, Lucy has tackled every challenge, including restoring irrigation systems and improving drainage. She also discusses the agronomic hurdles of reopening a course after being closed for over two years, including selecting the right grass species for greens that were initially sown with fescue. This episode is a fascinating look at how a struggling venue can be brought back to life with the right vision, support, and the dedication of passionate people. Tune in for an encouraging and insightful story of revival and community focus. https://www.raglangolfclub.co.uk/ The Greenprint on Linkedin https://www.instagram.com/thegreenprintuk/ Subscribe to the show to make sure you receive all episodes as they are released

I have my son Sam Trenwith in the studio with me today, talking a little about his music teaching world, as well as our upcoming concert in Raglan at the end of this month. I've also featured a band, the Forest Hills Bluegrass Band from south-west Ohio, playing their own original music, as well as offerings from Laurie Lewis, Jim Lauderdale, Bobby Hicks, Bill Blackburn, the Osborne Brothers and even The Trenwiths.
That was quite a smart move from Chris Luxon yesterday, calling on opposition parties to support the Government in fixing this energy crisis we're in at the moment.Not only because this is now so serious, with businesses closing down and cutting jobs because they can't afford the power bill, that it really requires everyone in Parliament to be grown ups about it - but also because I think this is going to politically snooker Labour on that oil and gas ban. I reckon they're getting in trouble on this one now. At the moment, mind-blowingly, Labour is still committed to it. Just yesterday, Chris Hipkins said it was a bottom line they wouldn't budge on - they'll still bring the oil and gas ban back.But I wonder if that's what they're saying until they say the opposite - do you know what I mean? I don't know that they can hold the line on this forever. Because their argument at the moment is that the climate is more important than 230 mill jobs in the Ruapehu district and 300 jobs at Methanex in Taranaki - and however many other jobs are lost around the country at businesses that close down because they can't afford the power bills because we're running out of gas and not trying to find more because Labour won't let us try. Labour's argument on why they need to maintain the ban is bollocks. They're suggesting there's no more gas out there. Yes there is - there are two fields off the coast of the North Island that have gas. There's Toutouwai off Taranaki and Karewa off Raglan, both are sitting there basically untapped.If Labour really believes what it's saying, that there really is no more gas, why do they need a ban?Lift the ban, let the investors trick themselves and keep exploring for this non-existent gas, it's not going to do any harm if there really isn't any gas out there. But what it will do is help New Zealand benefit from those companies maintaining the wells we already have.Now, I don't think Labour's in trouble for this just yet - which is why they're holding the line and saying they will bring the ban back.And I believe that's because most people aren't affected yet, most of us don't work for Methanex or these businesses shutting down.But come April, when our power bills go up and we see the cost of this ban on us - Labour might have to start dropping this policy.

This Day in Legal History: Economic Opportunity ActThis day in legal history, on August 20, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Economic Opportunity Act into law, a cornerstone of his ambitious "War on Poverty." The Act allocated $1 billion to fund social programs aimed at alleviating poverty across the United States. It created initiatives like Job Corps, which provided education and vocational training to young people, and Head Start, a program focused on early childhood education. The legislation also established community action programs designed to empower local communities to fight poverty by giving them control over how federal funds were spent. The Economic Opportunity Act was a key element of Johnson's broader "Great Society" vision, which sought to eliminate poverty and racial injustice while improving education, healthcare, and housing. Though the Act faced criticism for its effectiveness and implementation, it marked a significant federal commitment to social welfare. It laid the groundwork for subsequent anti-poverty programs and remains a pivotal moment in the history of U.S. social policy.For context and as stated, the act set aside $1 billion for social programs. The richest American of the 1960s was J. Paul Getty, with a net worth of right around $1.2 billion. Therefore, the program set aside about 83% of the net worth of the wealthiest American of the day. If a similar program was enacted today, Elon Musk is the wealthiest American with a net worth of about $195 billion–so a comparable program would need to set aside approximately $162 billion for social welfare programs. Today, Job Corps has a yearly budget of just $1.8 billion and Head Start just $12.5 billion for a combined total of about $15 billion – we have quite a ways to go. A group advocating for changes to Ohio's redistricting process has filed a lawsuit against the Ohio Ballot Board, accusing it of misleading voters with biased language regarding a proposed constitutional amendment. The group, Citizens Not Politicians, argues that the board's nearly 900-word description of the measure, which will appear on the November ballot, is designed to prejudice voters against the amendment. The lawsuit asks the Ohio Supreme Court to require the board to use new, neutral language that complies with state law. The board's description suggests that voting "yes" would create a taxpayer-funded commission required to gerrymander districts, which the plaintiffs claim is misleading. The case is expected to be expedited due to the upcoming election.Ohio Redistricting Activists Sue Over GOP-Passed Ballot ProposalWalt Disney Co. has agreed to have a Florida wrongful death lawsuit resolved in court, reversing its earlier stance that the case should go to arbitration. The lawsuit was filed by Jeffrey Piccolo, whose wife, Kanokporn Tangsuan, died from an allergic reaction after dining at Raglan Road Irish Pub and Restaurant in Disney Springs, Orlando. The couple allegedly chose the restaurant due to Disney and Raglan's assurances about accommodating food allergies. Initially, Disney argued that it wasn't liable, claiming it had no control over the restaurant's operations. Later, Disney suggested the case should go to arbitration based on Piccolo's Disney+ subscription, the arbitration clause in the terms of service for that streaming service, and his use of the company's website. However, Disney has now decided to waive arbitration to expedite the case in court, expressing a desire to address the family's loss with sensitivity.Disney agrees to have Florida wrongful death lawsuit decided in court | ReutersU.S. expatriates are frustrated with the IRS's proposed rules on foreign-trust reporting, particularly regarding the classification and reporting of foreign retirement plans. Many foreign retirement accounts are considered foreign trusts, requiring Americans abroad to report them to the IRS, which can be complex and unclear. Despite the IRS's efforts to revise these rules, expatriates and tax professionals feel that the new proposals don't provide enough clarity on who needs to report and which retirement plans are affected, leaving many in financial uncertainty. Over 1,500 comments were submitted to the IRS, with expatriates expressing anxiety and confusion about their obligations. Practitioners highlight that the ambiguity in these rules can lead to severe penalties for non-compliance, making it difficult for taxpayers to understand their responsibilities. The IRS's public hearing on the matter is expected to focus heavily on the need for clearer guidance, particularly on foreign retirement plans, with calls for broader exemptions and more comprehensive relief.Americans Abroad Want Relief From IRS on Foreign-Trust ReportingThe EPA argues that the challengers to the Biden administration's power plant carbon limits are unlikely to succeed on the merits of their case. The EPA asserts that its carbon capture technology standard and related limits are based on well-established scientific and technical judgments, which fall within the agency's statutory authority under the Clean Air Act. The EPA's power plant carbon limits set new standards for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from coal and gas power plants, focusing on carbon capture and storage technology. The rule requires that existing long-term coal plants implement technology to capture 90% of their carbon dioxide emissions by 2032. It also mandates that medium-term coal plants co-fire with natural gas at 40% of their annual heat input by 2030. For new gas plants operating at a significant capacity, the same 90% carbon capture standard applies. The EPA argues that these standards are based on proven technologies that can feasibly reduce emissions, aligning with the agency's traditional regulatory approach of improving the environmental performance of individual power plants.The EPA contends that the rule adheres to the traditional regulatory approach by focusing on technologies that reduce emissions at individual sources, rather than enforcing a generation shift across the energy grid, as the Supreme Court found problematic in the earlier West Virginia v. EPA case. The EPA also argues that carbon capture technology is not only adequately demonstrated but also achievable within the set timelines, based on extensive evidence from current and past projects. Additionally, the EPA claims that the potential impact on coal plants, including possible closures, is incidental and does not invalidate the rule. They stress that the rule's compliance deadlines are reasonable and that states have flexibility in their implementation plans. The EPA concludes that a stay would cause irreparable harm by allowing continued carbon emissions and that the court should deny the stay applications.EPA Urges Supreme Court to Block Bid to Freeze Power Plant Rule This is a public episode.

We announce the winner of the Rabobank Good Deeds Competition - the Te Mata Tennis Club - in a small rural community near Raglan in the Waikato. The tennis club was strong in the 1970s through to the 1990s however in the late 90's the community club dwindled in numbers and the court condition deteriorated due to lack of use, and maintenance, leading to the eventual club cessation, with the last AGM in 2003. There has been significant population growth in Te Mata over the last 15 years as well as increased interest in tennis, and a group of locals - including a representative from the near-by school - recently re-established the club committee and started discussions around upgrading the courts. A project plan has now been developed with the aim of resurfacing the courts and upgrading the facilities.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Following yesterday first episode of TMTM:WWW we're hitting you with our second. Today we feature a wonderful conversation with Lucy Alford from The Dell Vineyard in Raglan. Planting on a family farm without much experience of wine, the Alford's have gone on to create award winning wines. Their 2022 Rosé picked up a major trophy at last year's Welsh Wine Awards. Not bad considering the battles fought against local wildlife. Lucy talks about where she and her husband were first bitten by the wine bug (any chance of seeing some Welsh Carmenere?) and how they decided to actually plant a vineyard. A fairly young producer they've achieved great things already. Listen in to the fabulous Lucy as she recounts the story of The Dell, including some wonderful Welsh mythology. @welshwineweek @welshvineyardassociation @thedellvineyard #WelshWineWeek #Welshwine #podcast #wine #winecast @fergelias @wineman147
This episode was inspired by a recent experience I had at a breathwork workshop in Raglan. Throughout the breathing journey I got really emotional. My body wanted to release and cry and shake and hum and it was a lot, but I felt safe and I stayed connected to my higher self throughout. She was there with me from the very beginning. I could hear her say, “let it out, let it go,” without feeling embarrassed about it or like I was being judged. It reminded me that when we can connect to our higher self, that wise inner knowing, we are able to access qualities such as compassion. So I thought I would share more about higher self today, and how you can connect with yours to reach your highest potential. You will learn about: What ‘higher self' actually is and why it's so important Ways to access your higher selves wisdom How your higher self can guide you through difficult times Simple methods you can use to connect with your higher self daily How you can start closing the gap between where you are and where you want to be Do you want to connect more deeply with your higher self?

This audio is brought to you by Wearcheck, your condition monitoring specialist. Pending an improved price and cost environment, Glencore said in its first-quarter 2024 production report on Tuesday that its Rustenburg ferrochrome smelter in South Africa's North West province would remain idled. The London- and Johannesburg-listed diversified mining and marketing company reported 26% lower attributable first quarter ferrochrome production of 297 000 t amid the European benchmark ferrochrome price for the second quarter of this year settling at $1.52/lb, 5.6% up on the first three months of 2024. Ferrochrome is a prime ingredient of stainless steel and most of the ferrochrome produced in South Africa is consumed by China, which is the world's biggest producer of stainless steel. Coal production of 26.6-million tonnes was broadly in line with the third quarter of last year, with Glencore CEO Gary Nagle reporting unchanged overall full-year production guidance from that presented at the beginning of this year. South African thermal coal production of four-million tonnes was in line with that of the first three months of last year, while Australian coal output was 3%-higher at 15.9-million tonnes. First-quarter copper and zinc production was broadly in line with the first quarter of 2023, while nickel increased 14%, reflecting recovery from the Raglan strike impacts in the base period. Lower year-on-year cobalt reflected the previously announced market-related production adjustments in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Glencore expects full-year marketing-adjusted earnings before interest and taxes to be in the $3-billion to $3.5-billion range. Glencore's own sourced copper production of 239 700 t was 2% above that of the first quarter of last year on a like-for-like basis. The company's own sourced cobalt production of 6 600 t was 3 900 t lower than that of the corresponding period last year on mainly planned lower run-rates at Mutanda Mining in the current weak cobalt pricing environment and mill downtime at Kamoto Copper Company, which are both located in the DRC. Overall zinc production of 205 600 t was in line, while own sourced zinc production was 6% higher at 10 600 t. Own sourced nickel production was 14% higher at 23 800 t.

The Hamilton City Council has been considering its draft long term plan budget, with the Mayor, Paula Southgate saying tough decisions will need to be made. The beach-side community of Raglan, in Waikato, needs a new plan for its treated sewage with the current treatment plant operating under an expired consent for the last three years. Limits have been placed on Waikato River wake boats to help stop spread of invasive clam and Libby will talk about the iconic Wellington Street Beach in Hamilton.
The beach-side community of Raglan, in Waikato, needs a new plan for its wastewater after treated sewage was flushed into the sea twice in the space of a month. An investigation is underway because the discharge was into an incoming tide, against the consent requirements, which expired three years ago. While funding for a new plant has been approved, it's still not clear how the treated water will be disposed of. As Libby Kirkby-McLeod reports, many locals want it discharged onto land, but the council says that's an expensive and complex option.
For the past fifty years a shoe maker in the small seaside town of Raglan has been selling his hand made shoes all over the world.

With Barbenheimer receding, our podcast host Neal Pollack turns his pop-culture eye to what comes next. And this week, that's 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem,' the animated offering that critic Pablo Gallaga calls the best on-screen version of TMNT ever. Neal knows little about the Ninja Turtles, as he wasn't a kid even when they debuted, but Pablo is the adult target audience for this movie, having annoyed his family for years with his Ninja Turtle obsession. Real teenagers voice the turtles, but Paul Rudd's cameo voice nearly steals the show.Onto more adult-themed offerings, Neal welcomes the mysterious Stephen Macaulay to discuss 'Justified: City Primeval,' the Detroit-set reboot of the adventures of Elmore Leonard's Kentucky-born U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens. Even though they filmed the series mostly in Chicago, Stephen says they did a great job capturing the Detroit vibe, even though "I have no idea what casino that is." Neal was not down with the girl who played Raglan's daughter, who is apparently actor Timothy Olyphant's actual daughter. But Boyd Holbrook's Clement Mansell is definitely the slimiest villain of the TV year.But nothing is quite as slimy as the British Miracle Meat, made from human flesh. At least that's the premise of a fake Channel 4 food documentary that shocked the U.K. a couple of years ago. Food correspondent Daniel Cohen joins us to talk about the sensation, about the U.K.'s tragic "cost of living crisis" and about annoyingly posh food shows on TV. As always when we talk about food on the podcast, it's delicious.Enjoy the show!

Last week a friend text me "Andy, how do you personally know that God is real? Not theology, not philosophy, not trying to convince others. But how do you know for yourself?" My answer took all of one minute as I picked up the phone and recorded a short voice memo. The thoughts have been rattling around my head since then so I figured I'd let you in on some of them. This is my story. How do I know God is real? 1. I thought I did My parents became authentic followers of Jesus when I was a toddler. Their primary reason was to find some help parenting! (I'm sure that was for my older brother, not me...). Consequently I grew up in a family where scripture reading around the family table, and Sunday church and Friday night youth group, were part of the norm. Alcohol was very rare and although I remember being disciplined at home, I don't recall any harsh words between my parents growing up. When I was seven I invited my mother into my bedroom as I knelt at a low table and invited Jesus to be my personal Savior and Lord. During school holidays I attended Christian camps - CBMC in Raglan and Adventure Camps at Waikanae, New Zealand. I remember choosing to do optional bible studies by correspondence in between to win prizes for completion. When I was 13 I chose to get water baptized in my local church. By the time I was a junior in high school, I had a solid knowledge of scripture, surrounded by wonderful mentors and leaders who exemplified authentic Christian living. I had experienced a few cycling, road-related escapes from death and hearing the voice of God. Then I left home - the sheltered community of support and godly structure, and was accepted for a two-year cadetship on a 12,000 acre ranch (farm) to be trained as a shepherd (horse, dogs, sheep, cattle...). This was boarding with 19 other young men and the conversations were primarily around rugby, beer, boobs and butts... Alcohol consumption was a badge of achievement - how much you could drink before passing out. Sexual conquests were proudly broadcast, and fed by a constant stream of porn videos and magazines. And me having a devoted religious stance, being a virgin, and not gay was a shock. So they confronted, challenged, tested and pushed me to see if what I believed was real. 2. I asked for more I was challenged by some awkward and some genuine questions. Being outside my safe and protected zone, I had to find out for myself rather than relying on a childhood experience or that of my parents. So, along with my Michael W. Smith and Steve Grace casette tapes, my bible, the audio book of God's Generals by Roberts Liardon and my guitar I prayed "God if you are real, I want to know you more." That's when things got real. I would be riding my horse in the New Zealand hill country and 'get' songs that inspired and encouraged me. I would be sitting in my room playing guitar and feel an external warmth that washed over my neck and back. I would be reading scripture and certain verses would stand out and then happen before my eyes. One was "My enemies laid a trap for me... and have fallen into it themselves" (see Psalm 57:6). 3. I grew in favor with God and man 4. I have a heritage of fearing God - walking in His ways, learning His voice, seeing His power So what about you? What is the reason for the hope you have? And if you don't have hope, here's how to access it... It's really simple, as a mentor of mine said "God wants you so badly He made the conditions so simple... only believe." It goes something like this: Pray with me... "Father I come to you in Jesus Name. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for sending Jesus to die on the cross for all of my sin, shame and brokenness. I acknowledge I have sinned and fallen short of your best life for me. I ask you to be my Savior: to forgive me and cleanse me and make me new.

Today on the Take on Board podcast, I'm speaking with Derryn Heilbuth about ESG considerations for boards.Derryn is the Exec Chair of BWD, which she founded over 30 years ago and which now has offices in Sydney, Brisbane, New York, Penang and Raglan in New Zealand.When Derryn founded BWD she understood then – as now – that communicating strategy requires an ability to think strategically, tell a compelling story and write, design, illustrate or animate messages in a way that connects intellectually and emotionally. Studying French in Paris and English literature under author J.M. Coetzee instilled a love of language. Covering women's issues as a newspaper journalist in apartheid South Africa taught her to question orthodoxies. Working on magazines and in television brought an appreciation of how each communication medium requires similar fundamentals: well-expressed, engaging content. And running Westpac's publications team introduced her to corporate storytelling.Links and ResourcesBWD StrategicDerryn Heilbuth on LinkedInMaking Sense with Sam Harris (PODCAST)Saturday Extra (PODCAST)The EconomistMelbourne Writers Festival Upcoming TOB EventsAll eventsYou might want to:Join the Take on Board Facebook communityJoin the Take on Board LinkedIn communityFollow along on TwitterWork with meJoin the Take on Board: Kickstarter group programJoin the Take on Board: Accelerator group programFind out more about meContact me Hosted on Acast.

Clean-up crews attempting to clear roads before the Waitangi long weekend are facing an uphill battle. Waka Kotahi warns travellers should plan ahead and expect delays, in light of the extreme damage wreaked by heavy rain in the North Island. State Highway 23 to Raglan and State Highway 1 from the Brynderwyns to Waipu in Northland aren't expected to open over the weekend. Meanwhile, State Highway 25 A in the Coromandel is expected to remain closed for some time. National Emergency Response Team leader Mark Owen says there's still the likelihood of more bad weather to consider. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Your instagram feed will be better nourished by following Raglan Surf Report, run by Kiwi surfer Luke Cederman. Comedy is hard to come by in surf movies and TV shows these days, which is why you'll find the clever parodies and satirical takes on our stupid past-time so necessary. Dry insertion of potent one-liners come sudden and painful, especially if you've engaged in similar thoughtless comments or acts addressed by his hilarious, pointed wit.

Luke Cederman is the host of the satirical creative endeavour; The Raglan Surf Report. Avid surfer, podcaster, short film-maker, and observer of all things pop culture, surf culture and beyond, Luke sits down for a chat with myself and this week's guest co-host, Mr Tim Morris, at Tim's home in Uluwatu, Bali. Luke discusses the difference between a "surfer" and a "surfey", poor surf etiquette, why comedy is a good way to highlight serious issues, his life growing up in Raglan New Zealand, and his distinct lack of childhood trauma. He is a humble, undercover genius, and I loved talking to him whilst he sweat all over my equipment.Enjoy,Shanterriblehappytalks.com for the full back-catalogue of episodes.Checkout Luke's work at:The Raglan Surf ReportHis Youtube channelHis InstagramThis week we support and advocate for:SungaiwatchThanks to the THT affiliates!

Otro Rally legendario que vuelve a Campeonato, en este caso la prueba de Nueva Zelanda. Por eso desde el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 se le va a hacer una merecida y extensa previa, con todos los detalles, pues desde el 2012 no teníamos esta prueba en el calendario. ¿Cómo son estas pistas? Las pistas por las que se abre paso el Rally de Nueva Zelanda son rápidas y fluidas, de tierra y con curvas peraltadas. Discurren a través de los bosques y a lo largo de la costa neozelandesa, dejándonos imágenes de postal. Esos tramos, elegidos por los equipos como el Rally del año 2001, son un sueño para los pilotos. La prueba arrancará el jueves por la tarde con una ceremonia de salida en Pukekawa Auckland Domain, seguida por un tramo superespecial dentro del parque de la ciudad. El viernes tendremos una dura jornada, incluyendo tramos clásicos en la Costa de Whaanga y en las pistas de la región de Waikato, cerca de Te Akau. El sábado, la acción se desplaza al norte de la base del Rally (Auckland), para una doble pasada por Kaipara Hills, Puhoi, Komokoriki y el regreso a Auckland. El final del domingo comprende un tramo en Whitford Forest Te Maraunga Waiho y el tramo expresamente diseñado para el Rally “Jack’s Ridge”. Ambos se disputarán dos veces y el segundo Jacks Ridge será el Power Stage. Algunos datos a tener en cuenta. Aparte de que los equipos que abran el Rally irán limpiando la superficie de arena suelta para los demás, también hay que tener en cuenta que el reconocimiento previo será crucial, pues varios pilotos actuales nunca han disputado una prueba aquí. Además será importante evitar problemas mecánicos, pues la primera etapa (que comprende más de al mitad de la distancia competitiva del Rally) será sin asistencia, tan sólo habrá una zona de montaje de neumáticos en Raglan. Eso quiere decir que cualquier problema con el coche será severamente castigado. Para los espectadores europeos, la hora para seguir la prueba en directo será algo incómoda. Concretamente, en España, la prueba del jueves comienza a las 7 de la mañana del jueves. Y la primera del viernes, a las 8:33 hora local, la podremos ver a las 21:33 en España. Es decir, que el que quiera ver el Power Stage, tendrá que madrugar el domingo, pues en directo se emitirá a las 4:00h. Cómo llegan los pilotos y los equipos a Nueva Zelanda. El Rally de Nueva Zelanda es el antepenúltimo de la temporada, así que aquí pilotos y equipos se lo están jugando todo ya. ¿Será campeón Rovanperä ya en Nueva Zelanda o se mantendrá la emoción? En cualquier caso, aunque aún no hay nada decidido, la ventaja, tanto de Rovanperä sobre Tänak y Neuville, como de Toyota sobre Hyundai es grande. Además, después de que las 3 últimas pruebas se las haya llevado Hyundai, está claro que en Toyota estarán deseando resarcirse. El equipo japonés ha confirmado ya su alineación para 2023, temporada en la que seguirán contando con Rovanperä, Evans y Katsuta, con la duda de si Ogier hará algún rally el año próximo. Ogier, concretamente, se sube al Toyota en esta prueba, para lo que el equipo ha tenido que bajar del auto a Lappi. ¿Están preparado ya algo para el año próximo o sólo compensando al piloto que tantos títulos les ha dado? Por su parte, M-Sport ha eliminado la inscripción de Fourmaux para este rally, después de los daños que tuvo su coche en el Rally de Ypres. Y en Hyundai las cosas no andan mucho mejor: Tänak no se corta al hablar de su escuadra, que le hizo ceder ante Neuville, cuando el estonio era más rápido, en la última prueba ¿está Tänak ya fuera del equipo? Todas estas dudas, despejadas en la madrugada del domingo. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

Tiana's Bayou Adventure to Replace Splash Mountain by Late 2024Tiana's Bayou Adventure is coming to Walt Disney World and Disneyland.

The yarn is The Fiber Seed Sprout Special Speckles DK, in the colorway Dirty Seahorse. I could not get the yarn to pool in the way that attracted me to the pattern in the first place. The colors spiral, but I still like it. Meadow Stripe Socks using Patons Kroy Sock in the colorway, Meadow Stripes and Lang Yarns Jawoll Superwash fingering for the heels and toes. I finally found the misplaced yarn for the toe and was able to finish these socks. Garter Squish Blanket On color fourteen of sixteen. I'm ready for this project to be done! Unpattern Top Down Raglan Pullover by Karen Alfke. I finished the Fibonacci Sequence striping of the body except for the ribbing. I'm waiting for Ben to try on the sweater. Picked up and knit the neck band and started the first sleeve. Troyggja við Mynstur (Sweater with Round Pattern) by Tora Joensen (translated by Kate Gagnon Osborne: I knit my swatch and got gauge with size 8 needles instead of the suggested size 9. I plan to knit colorwork yoke with size 9. I cast on the sweater while at the beach and knit the ribbing, the colorwork and about an inch of the body. Decided the size was too small, frogged, and cast on the next size up. At about 9” I put the body on waste yarn and washed and blocked to be sure gauge and size are okay. The ball of red arrived for Navia that will be in the yoke. I'm spinning a 2lb bag of Manx Loaghton in my stash. This is a protected breed from the Isle of Man. I am using a woolen spun technique and have spun 5 skeins or approximately 400 yards. Spun three more bobbins that are ready to be plied. Kelly's Projects: Finished the Garter Squish blanket using handspun leftovers. Mother Bear time! Mielie vest using Schaeffer Yarn Company Little Danya mohair. This sat in the knitting basket for the last two weeks. Color is Rosa Parks and it was spirit yarn from NoCKRs retreat in 2018. Shortie socks out of Tomato and Mink Falkland handspun yarn. 3-ply chain plied yarn.

Marsha 0:45 Okay, big news. Kelly 0:47 Yes. Marsha 0:47 Talk. Big news. Kelly 0:49 Big news. So the trailer pickup finally happened. Marsha 0:54 Yay. Kelly 0:55 It was so much fun. It was so much fun. So we went up to, no down. South, south of us to Pismo Beach. They have the Pismo trailer rally. And it's Pismo Coast Village, which is an RV park in Pismo Beach. And, oh, it was so fun. It was all vintage trailers, you have no idea how many different varieties of vintage trailers there are. Marsha 1:29 Mm hmm. Kelly 1:31 It was amazing. You know, most of the park there was... there are some sections of the park that were just regular modern RVs. And probably the majority of the park was full of vintage trailers of all shapes and sizes. And they have...And one of them, I guess I should be more specific. And one of them was ours, because the people who worked on our trailer go to this rally every year. And it's kind of like NoCKRs, you know, like the retreats where if you go one year, then you have priority to get in and to actually get that same trailer spot the following year. And so, I mean, there are actually people who weren't there. But, you know, bought their spot, didn't cancel and get a refund. So they, so they'll have it for next year. Marsha 2:25 Okay. Kelly 2:26 So and there are people who have been going for, you know, 5 6 7 8 years. I don't know how long it's been going on. But you know, they've been going for a number of years and since everybody stays in their same campsite once they get the one they want, they're like neighbors you know. They they know each other there, they know the people camping around them. And so it's this whole community. I was talking to one man, I said, Oh, this is like a giant rabbit hole. And he's like, Oh, you you have no idea how deep this rabbit hole is! [laughing] Marsha 3:00 It's like a version of spinning learning to spin, right? Like they don't even want to drop spindle because they're gonna go down that rabbit hole. So this is this kind of the same thing. Kelly 3:06 And the people there had, like, this was the trailer that they bought to brought to the rally, but the one they usually bring is something else. Or the one they camp in or, or I was talking to one couple and they said, Yeah, we're gonna, we're gonna be at the one in November. But we're not sure if we're going to bring this one or we'll bring our other one. So they have like trailer stash. Marsha 3:40 I was just thinking that. Trailer stash. Yeah. [laughing] Kelly 3:45 So yeah, and then people would talk about, well, this is my "forever trailer." So like, you have a trailer, but you have aspirations for a different trailer. And then, you know, you sell one trailer and buy another trailer. And anyway, it's a whole world that I didn't know, you know, we had not ever done rallies before. And so this is a whole world that that we are entering into. And the reason we got to enter into it. I mean, we had talked about going, you know, going to one or you know, getting a reservation or trying to get into one. But we got kind of thrown into the deep end because they were coming down, and they were going to be bringing a different trailer. But since we hadn't been able to pick up ours in April. They said, Well, what if we bring yours down and then we'll just stay, you know, stay in hotel and you can stay in the trailer? So that's what we did. And then they showed it during the open house, you know, so that the public could see it. But we were kind of mean, we didn't have the public traipsing in and out of our trailer. Marsha 4:56 Well it's like getting a new car and everybody else gets to drive it, right?, Before you get, right, like you, you don't want people driving it. Kelly 5:03 And so we had, you know, we had barriers. So, and a lot of people, a lot of people in the park did that or at least had one part of their trailer that had barriers. Or like they knew to have, you know, multiple rugs that are normally not on the floor when they are camping, but they use on the public day where everybody was coming in. You know, just to protect their floors and stuff. And we had none of that, because we were just, you know, literally just arriving with the bare minimum camping equipment, so that we could spend the night in the trailer before we brought it home. So anyway, but it was really fun. And so they spent a lot of time with the public and answering questions and all that and Robert and I didn't really have to deal with the crush of people. You know, coming to the coming to the site to look at the trailer, but it was like the belle of the ball. You know, it's the new trailer on the block the, you know, there aren't very many 1950 Westcrafts. And so when a new one is restored and comes out, you know, sort of like its debut. Marsha 6:13 Yeah, Kelly 6:14 There's a lot of excitement, there was a lot of excitement at the park. So we had a lot of people coming by. Not during the public open house, but the rest of it. Coming by and talking to us. And we met so many fun people and they, it was just it was a really nice event. So, and the trailer is nice. It's beautiful. It's so big. I mean, it's not really that big. When I first saw it, I thought okay, good. In my head, it had grown to this enormous proportions. And when I saw it, I thought Oh, good. It is still kind of small. You know, it's way bigger other one, but it's not enormous. Marsha 6:53 Yeah. Yeah, way bigger. So your other one, you know, one person had to sit while the other person moved . Kelly 6:59 Right. Kind of you know, this one, you can both move around without... to me it doesn't feel too big inside. Marsha 6:59 Like it's not it like those big fifth wheels that people have, you know. Those are huge things that stick... What do you call those pop outs and stuff. Those become huge, right? This is still really small. Kelly 7:20 Yeah, yeah. Right. But it feels really open. Just like the other trailer, it feels a little more spacious, because of the layout. The other trailer felt more spacious because of the windows. And this one feels that way because of the light wood and and kind of the layout. But anyway, it was a lot of fun. And I think there's going to be there's going to be more trailer rallies in my future. You know, it's not the kind of camping I'm used to, but it was a fun event. Yeah, it's like a big party. Marsha 7:56 Yes. I'd say you're gonna have a whole new set of friends. Right? Yeah. Kelly 8:01 Work friends. Marsha 8:02 I'm your your one college friend. Like I guess I'm leftover from college. Kelly 8:09 Leftover friends. [laughing] Marsha 8:14 you know, knitting-- your work people, knitting people, trailer people, bee people. I'm not sure. Anyway, Kelly 8:23 Just a whole new adventure. And it was interesting how much I learned talking to people who knew a lot more about this particular make of trailer than I did. Robert knew more than than I did. But but we we both learned a lot from people who came by and told us a little bit and and then the people who did their own work on the trailers. Oh my gosh, so impressive. All this work that that people did, you know, on their own in their garage? Marsha 8:56 Yeah, Kelly 8:57 You know, so that's a different-- that's a whole different aspect of it from from what we did when we bought it and had it restored. So yeah, it's a whole other world to enter. Which will be really fun. I'm looking forward to camp we're going camping in June. So I'm looking forward to actually camping in it you know, regular camping trip and, and, and just seeing what it's like to be in this trailer. The bed is nice. It's bigger. It's not as big as a regular double bed it's slightly smaller. But it's a lot better than slightly bigger than a single with two people and... Marsha 9:43 So your other was was it the size of a single bed? Kelly 9:47 It was a little bit bigger than a single bed but not much. I couldn't get a twin sheet on it. Marsha 9:54 Really? Kelly 9:54 I mean I can--I could fudge it to get a twin sheet on it, but it was it was deifinitely too big for a twin sheet, but not much. So maybe maybe a couple of inches wider than a twin bed. But this one is is much more comfortable. Marsha 10:11 Yeah. Yeah. Kelly 10:13 So that's nice. And we have a bathroom. Which is also nice. And the a shower. Which I didn't--I mean, that wasn't something that I really cared about, but Robert wanted the shower. And actually, I didn't know they did this in trailers, but it's like a, like on the train where the whole room, it's called a wet bath. And the whole room becomes the shower. Marsha 10:36 Mm hmm. Kelly 10:38 I don't know how that's gonna work. Exactly. But yeah. Marsha 10:42 Yeah. Well, and also you actually have a refrigerator, right? Where your other trailer was an ice box? Kelly 10:49 That's true. I had forgotten about that. Yeah, that's the other upgrade that we have is from an icebox to an actual refrigerator. It's a small, you know, it's a small refrigerator. But I'm used to a small refrigerator at home too. Marsha 11:03 Yeah. Kelly 11:03 Yeah, it runs on the electricity. So if we don't have shore power--its called shore power, where you can plug in--we won't have a refrigerator, because it won't run with the 12 volt or the ... you won't get enough power from the inverter solar power to run the refrigerator. But that's okay. We're used to camping with dry ice and an ice box so we can manage with that. That's not a problem. Marsha 11:33 Well, very exciting. And then. And then I'll see it when you come up to Albany, Oregon for the Black Sheep Gathering the end of June. Kelly 11:40 So yeah, yeah, we'll be having a get together for anybody who's going to Black Sheep gathering that Saturday. So Black Sheep is the weekend of June 24 through 26th. And so that Saturday, which I guess will be the 25th that afternoon, late afternoon, maybe 3:30 or 4 o'clock, we'll be having a meet up at the-- we're calling it The Club Car. You know, like the trains have a club car. So I... who suggested that... oh, the father of the woman who bought The Clubhouse. He asked me who is your new trailer? Does your new trailer have a name? And I said, No, we haven't really haven't thought about that. And he's oh, you should call it the... first he said you should call it The Caboose. And then he said, No, I know what you should call it, you should call it The Club Car. And so that's perfect. So we're going to be calling it The Club Car. And I've gotten train placemats and couple of train menus. So that stuff has been arriving in the mail. And so it'll have a little bit of a theme, a little bit of a theme. Not as much as as the other trailer was Giants themed but anyway. Yeah, we're gonna have a meet up at The Club Car at the Black Sheep Gathering. So come in, say hi and show us what you bought. And have some food and drink and gather with other crazy yarn people. [laughing] Who are on their way to maybe becoming crazy trailer people. [laughing] Marsha 13:22 Yes. Really Yeah. Yeah! Well, shall we? Should we talk projects or? Kelly 13:30 Let's go ahead and, and talk projects. Marsha 13:32 Do you want me to go first? Kelly 13:33 Go ahead. Marsha 13:36 I have a finished project. I wish I could say it was my garter squish blanket. It is not. I needed a break. Because I have to say you remember I think the last time we recorded I was struggling with some of my projects. It's been a couple... it's been months now that I've been struggling with my projects. And I think you said oh, just cast something on. So I cast on the Depth Hat by to Talitha Kuomi. And to remind people this was the yarn I bought at Stitches. And it's the Fiber Seeds Sprout Special Speckles DK and the colorway is Dirty Seahorse. And to remind people it's like they've taken the hank of yarn and dipped one half in solid, solid teal, and the other half is speckled with teal and brown and some black. And so when you knit the hat, it pools. It's supposed to pool so you have you know, the dark sections going up the side of the hat and the speckled sections going up the front and back of the hat. So let me just say, that did not happen for me. And there's this whole technique that you're supposed to do about how you find the place where you start. You just don't cast on any random place in the yarn, there's description about how, where you're the point where you're supposed to find in the color, I think you're at the halfway point in the solid color yarn is where you cast on. They tell you what type of cast on you do, I did all of that. It's an interesting hat. You knit I don't remember how many rows, but you knit and then you put in a purl row, and then more and then pick up the the cast on edge. So it becomes-- it's knitted into the body of the hat. I'm not describing Do you know what I mean? I'm not describing that very well. Kelly 15:42 Well, I I sort of saw the pictures. It's folded into a hem, right? Marsha 15:47 Yeah, yeah. So that looks really nice. I like that. I could not get the pooling to work the way they say it's supposed to work. The way I was so captivated by when I saw the yarn and the pattern at stitches. It spirals. And what they tell you to do is to go down a needle size, or up a needle size to control the pooling, so that it all stays in that one section. Kelly 16:17 So like you're switching needles in the middle? Marsha 16:22 Yes. Kelly 16:22 Okay. Marsha 16:23 And also and the other technique to do that, is to pull the yarn really tight. So if you're knitting along, when you get to the solid section, pull that yarn really tight onto the needles or go down a needle size, or the opposite, Kelly 16:40 But it didn't tell you to like pull out yarn. If you get to the part that's supposed to be solid, and you're still on speckled yarn, just pull it out to you have solid yarn and knit with that. Marsha 16:50 No. Kelly 16:51 Okay, Marsha 16:51 So I'm a little disappointed that I did not get that look. It's a spiral, it's fine. I mean, it looks okay. Kelly 16:58 Did you swatch? Marsha 17:00 Yes, because it also said in the pattern, they said you have to swatch and your gauge has to be accurate, because that will affect the pooling? And my gauge? My swatch and the gauge was correct. So I don't know what I did wrong? Kelly 17:15 Probably nothing. Marsha 17:18 Yeah, I don't know. It's like they are individually hand dyed. So maybe that has something to do with it. I don't think so. But possibly. The other thing I would say about this pattern, it does not say... there's no description on the print of the pattern about how the, it tells you how to finish the you know, to close up the top of the hat. But it doesn't give you a description of it. Like when it's talking about like, oh, this hat has a you know, a hem, a folded hem and there's nothing. So in the picture does not show the top of the hat. And the reason I'm saying all this is I had no idea how it was supposed to look. And so what it really is like, imagine you have you're on the top of your head, now you're gonna have 1990s pleated khakis. There used to be a pleat on khakis. And now that is out you know, now it's back. I think pleats are coming back. But it's basically-- it's like you have four pleats on top. So I'm not even explaining right because Kelly 18:19 It's kind of like, I mean, in order to keep the pooling happening. Right? And not change as you decrease, you really can't have decreases. So you have to make the top of the hat like the pussy hat. But then instead of having those points on the ears, on the sides, they have to do something to make it come to and end. Marsha 18:44 So when you get to the part where you're going to close up that hole. You put some of the-- you put groups of nine stitches: nine stitches on 4 double pointed needles. So you go nine stitches, and then you put 21 stitches on your circular needles, nine stitches on the double pointed needle, nine stitches on a double pointed needle, another 21 stitches on the circular needle, and then another nine stitches on the double pointed needles. You then do a three needle bind off on the first and fourth double pointed needle. And this is where I got screwed up is you you continue on two needles, a double pointed needle number three and number two, excuse me two and three, and knit across to the end binding those off. So they become joined and then you have your 21 stitches on half of the circular needles and the other 21 stitches on the other half of the needle and you do a kitchener stitch too. Kelly 19:55 So that's what's covering up... Marsha 19:58 Yes so... These, these two sets of nine stitch bindoffs then are underneath that 21 stitch flap. I don't know if that makes sense? Kelly 20:09 I think that would be really challenging to actually knit without knowing what it was supposed to be doing. Like now that you're done, and you know what it did. But that would be a really challenging thing to knit without any picture to say, Oh, I'm doing a really thing weird here. Marsha 20:29 Yes, and it looks nice, you know, and to your point, they, it's a great solution to keep that patterning right. Otherwise, if you did, to your point, if you did the decreases, you'd throw off all of the pooling, of which I did not get but anyway. [laughing] But again, a shout out to Ravelry. And all the people who've made this hat who posted pictures of their hat is by looking at their pictures, I was unable to figure out what I had an a visual of what I was trying to do. Where the pattern there's no picture of the top of the hat. Right and no description of it kind of other than just the the instructions about how to close this up. So do you remember I call I think I texted you. Oh my god, this looks odd because I I bound it off. And it looked like a four corner hat kind of. It was terrible. It looked terrible. Kelly 21:27 Basically, it looked like yeah, you had you had like four points. Yes. And a really funky seam. Kelly 21:36 And they were not even even Kelly 21:39 Yeah,yeah, they were Marsha 21:39 Yeah, cuz some were really tight because they were the three needle bind off, the two sets of nine and then the 21 stitches that were Kirschner was all kind of lose because they were kept... not Kershner, kitchener stitch. And anyway, I poured myself a beer got onto my bed with the dog next to me, and started looking at Ravelry to see and there was no notes. But just looking at people's the photographs on people's projects, I was able to figure it out. And so I made myself rip it out, and then re knit up a little bit and then thought okay, I think I understand the concept of what's happening. Anyway. So that's what beer is for. [laughing] Kelly 22:31 Yes, yeah. Oh, my goodness. Marsha 22:34 Okay. So anyway, that's done. But I have to say, again, it sort of goes into this. I was thinking, Oh, I'm just, you know, okay. It's not, I'm disappointed. It's not pooling the way it's supposed to pool. I'm getting this spiral. I can live with it. It's okay. And then that end of the hat, I thought, I really am struggling with a lot of my projects. Kelly 22:54 Yeah. Marsha 22:55 Anyway, I will then go on to the garter squish blanket, I have not a whole lot to report on that I am really ready for this to be done. I do apologize too. I was listening to the last episode where I was knitting on it while we were recording. And I was listening as I was walking Enzo and all I could hear with those needles, bang, bang. It's all like they were so loud. So I do apologize for that. So I'm not knitting on that. Now, as I'm sitting here. It is also too big for it to sit on my lap. But anyway, I'm on color 14, about halfway through color 14 of 16. Kelly 23:31 Oh, you're almost done. Marsha 23:33 I'm getting close. I'm ready for it to be done. I'm beginning to just hate this project. Because I really like it, but I'm sick of it. I want to move on to something else. So but we have, I'll just put there's a good time to put this in here that the our blanket along ends May 31. So what is today we're recording on today is Kelly 24:03 the 25th of May. Marsha 24:04 So Okay, not quite a week. So I will get it done. I'm pretty sure I'll get it done. But I'm ready for it to be done. Okay, um, I have nothing new to report on the the unpatterned top down Raglan pullover by Karen Offski that I'm making for Ben. I have nothing to report except he's coming home today. This is the, you know, Memorial. This is the Wednesday before Memorial Day. So he has a long weekend. And so he's coming home today at some point so hopefully in the next couple of days he can put it on and I'm going to say... Kelly 24:40 Yeah, you can pin him down. Marsha 24:43 Yes. To see how it's how the body is and etc. So not much to report on that. Then my next project is the sweater that I'm making for my brother and Kelly and we before we started recording We looked it up on. We Googled that in the end it's "Tro-cha." Kelly 25:06 "Tro-cha minstur" Marsha 25:07 Troyggja Við Mynstur, which we believe means sweater. Kelly 25:10 sweater pattern. Marsha 25:13 sweater with round pattern and which, I have to laugh because guess what it says in parentheses after Troyggja Við Mynstur, it says sweater with round pattern. So we finally figured out that that's what it is. And if anybody wants to give us feedback, if we're not saying this the correct way... Kelly 25:38 Our foreign correspondent could tell us how to pronounce that in Faroese a little bit better and maybe the translation but we did we did find a Faroese translation site, a pronunciation site online and we're probably not doing it justice but but we're trying! Marsha 26:03 So I just have to give you a little update on this. So I unravelled... Kelly 26:09 How many times have you start restarted this sweater? Marsha 26:15 Well, I will tell you! So. Okay, so we're not counting the Atlas anymore. So I knit the whole body of Atlas. And honestly, I mean, I pretty much knit the whole sweater, didn't I? Kelly 26:28 Yeah. Marsha 26:29 Did I do the sleeves? I didn't do all the sleeves I don't think but because he tried it on it was way too small. Moving Beyond that, that's how Cat actually inspired me to look at a Faroese sweater. Since the yarn is Navia Tradition which is a Faroese yarn. So I found this pattern and I did my swatch. I did not get gauge on the nines, it's supposed to use a size nine needle.I did not get gauge with that I got gauge with the size eight. So Kelly, I got gauge, okay! Yes. So I don't know. I don't know what my problem is. So I got gauge and when we went down to the beach, two weeks ago, I guess we were down there, I cast on the size I think it was going to make, I don't know, I don't remember now what size I was going to make for my brother. I've got the pattern right here, it'd be like I was gonna make the medium size. There was like an extra small, small, medium, and then a large and then it keeps going up. I decided I was gonna make it the medium because I thought that would be okay with the with my gauge. So I cast on and I did all the ribbing I did the color work that's just above the ribbing, and I did about an inch of the body and I started looking at it. I thought, this looks awfully small. So I thought screw it, I'm ripping it out. So I ripped it out and I recast on the next size up. So I'm making the large. So I again did the ribbing, the color work. I knit about I would say probably nine inches of the the body. And when I was home, I decided to put it on waste yarn and wash and block it, which I did. And it's going to fit and be roomy enough. Kelly 28:19 Oh. That's good news. Marsha 28:20 Oh my gosh. So now I'm knitting on it. And I have knit about, I think I've knit about 13 or 14 inches on it. And I have to knit till about 18 inches, set it aside and then I'll do the sleeves and attach them. So it's been a bit of a nightmare. I have to say this, this whole project-- I don't know. Anyway. And then the other thing I'll say is that with this sweater, I need four colors. Where with the Atlas I needed three: the main color and two contrasting. With this pattern, Sweater with Round Pattern, I need the main color and three contrasting colors for the color work. And I have the color work as like a light robin's egg blue, and a navy. And the body of the sweater is like a bright grass green, kind of, so when we were together when I was down there, I think for NoCKRs, I think it was , I ordered just a natural color, a white or cream color, which arrived. And Mark didn't like that. He wanted a color. So I think I have mentioned this before that I ordered that ball from Navia on the Faroe Islands, and it took about a month. But it arrived and he wanted red, it's a bright red. I'm not sure. I have to say I'm not sure I like the red with a bright kelly green. A robin's egg blue and a navy. He really liked it. Kelly 29:57 Havae you put the red in already? Or is it only in the neck color work? Marsha 30:03 I have not put the red in. It's only in the yoke. Yeah, just a couple of rows. It's not gonna be very much. So we'll see. I've got a ways. But I have to tell you about the the package from Navia. It came in an envelope, it was all when I got it, the envelope was wrapped with yarn, instead of twine, and a piece of Navia Tradition yarn wrapped around it and tied with a little bow on the outside of the package. Kelly 30:33 The part that went to the post office, still on there. Wow. Marsha 30:35 And it stayed on nice. Yeah, it stayed on there all the way from the Faroe Islands. It stayed on there, that yarn wrapped around there and the bow and everything and then opened up and beautifully wrapped in tissue paper with a little sticker on it that said, thank you. It's just super, super sweet and very exciting to get that dropped off on my front porch. So that's what's going on with that. And then I go down every day, I spend for 10-15 minutes, just a little bit on that Manx Loaghtan. But I'm still spinning on that. So and I am Kelly, I am going to bring my spinning wheel to Black Sheep. Because I'm planning on doing... I've never been able to bring it because we've either taken the train or something. I've not had space, but I'm bringing that wheel so I can sit in the spinning circle, or sit by the trailer and spin. So anyway, that's all I have for projects, and I'm really hoping I've now moved past my problems. Kelly 31:35 Oh, me too. Marsha 31:36 Do you think? Because I've kind of gone through kind of a hard time. It's been around two months now. It's like, I've had some bad juju. I don't really know what that's about. But it's just, Kelly 31:48 Yeah, it's been a little bit rough patch with your knitting. Yeah, maybe you need to do some crochet Marsha 31:59 Well, maybe it's like I just crochet placemats or something, you know, or Kelly 32:03 switch to another spinning project? Well, I don't know if you have enough bobbins. But you could get yourself some braids and switch to some different, you know, have a couple of different spinning projects going because it is going to be time for the summer spin in. Marsha 32:20 Yeah, so I think I am going to. I was thinking about that before we started recording. So I'm going to try and finish for the summer spin. And I'm gonna try and finish this Manx Loaghtan. I'll try and finish that, and then I think I'm gonna try and do a combo spin or I have some braids, two braids I was thinking of combining. So do something with that. Kelly 32:40 Yeah, nice. That might be a nice, that might be a nice way to kind of just put an end to the the bad knitting. By not knitting at all. Marsha 32:50 Oh, you know, I think part of it is... I'm gonna say is I think I'm making... It's all making stuff for other people. Yeah, I'm thinking about it. I'm making this sweater for Ben, the sweater for my brother. And then Kelly 33:03 when doing those tea cozies Marsha 33:06 Tea cozies. I have another tea cozy I have to make... and it's like this is knitting for other people. You know? Because like this, I have to say this Navia Tradition, this yarn. I have to put hand cream on when I knit with it, because it's so drying to my hands. It's and I'm not saying that in a bad way. It's just like, this is the type of yarn it is. It's not super pleasant. It's not like, you know that the handspun I was knitting with. I love knitting with it. This is a woolly wool. Kelly 33:36 Right. Right. Marsha 33:39 So it's, it's not a yarn I ever would have purchased. Yeah. So that's sort of part of it, too, I think it's I'm not really, not really into it. Kelly 33:49 Yeah, I mean, the yarn. The yarn wasn't your choice. The original pattern wasn't your choice. No, yeah. And then with Ben's sweater, you had some challenges with your first pattern. And then you've had some challenges just having him try it. Like knitting for someone who's not there. And I know there are people who do that, you know, they knit for people that they don't have them try it on all the time. But I, I mean, I constantly try things on when I'm knitting for myself. Marsha 34:19 Yeah. Kelly 34:20 And so I think that would be really challenging to be knitting something that you know, especially when you're knitting it for the second time because the first one didn't work, and you really don't want to have to rip out again. So you want to make sure it's right. Marsha 34:35 So Mark's I've ripped out twice. So I'm on my third attempt at this sweater for him. Yeah. Okay, that is love or stupidity I'm not quite sure which it is. But anyway, Okay, nevermind my project. Let me hear about your projects, okay? Because you do have... Yeah, let me hear about yours. Kelly 34:54 Okay, it's going. So yeah, actually it's a good thing I have the trailer to talk about because I don't really have much to talk about in terms of my projects. So I can tell you that the garter squish blanket, which was already done, but I have it in the show this time because I actually slept under it. We used it. We used it in the trailer, I brought it for the trailer's bedspread. And I got lots of compliments on it. So some of the trailer people are also yarn people. Marsha 35:30 Of course, of course, there was some overlap. And, yeah, chicken and bees too. I bet. Right. Kelly 35:36 Well, yeah. I mean, I don't know how much of how much of that there is. But there were a couple of people who recognized that I had made it and asked me, Did you make that blanket? And some were working on their own. Or saw me knitting while I was there and asked about it. So yeah. So yeah, we slept under. It was great. It looks, it looks really nice in the trailer. So I'm super, I'm super happy about how it turned out and being able to use it. I was... Oh, go ahead. Marsha 36:11 Oh, I was just going to say the picture you sent me. The colors work really well in there. Because you have all that sort of light wood with all the panels, the light wood, and then some of the burgundy kind of in there and the floor. And so the colors look really nice in there, I think. Kelly 36:29 Thank you. Yeah. I like it, too. I think it looks good. I actually think you know this, the thing about the Garter Squish, is that they can fit into a lot of different schemes, color schemes. Because you've got those, that one color going, going throughout with all the different colors that you add in. I have not finished the Mother Bear, the headless Mother Bear that I talked about a month ago. She's still headless, because I need to get some stuffing. And I started another one. So I have now have two headless Mother Bears. One flat one is totally flat, and the other one has some stuffing in it. So I need to get get some stuffing so I can finish those up. And what I'm knitting on right now is the mohair vest, which I like it, but then sometimes I look at it and I think is this actually really ugly. Marsha 37:37 And what have you decided, I mean, do you have a definitive answer? Kelly 37:40 No decision or I'm not really sure. I'm not really sure. It's not pooling or anything. I mean, there's a couple of places where it looks darker and a couple of places where the red shows through more, but it's not doing any kind of funky pooling. I'm about now maybe eight inches down from the armhole. And it's just-- it's very hairy. This is a very hairy vest. And I'm not sure what I'm gonna do about the collar. Because I seriously cannot imagine having this against my neck. Like my other vest I wear I zip it all the way up and I have like a turtleneck kind of. I don't think I would ever do that with this one. So I'm not sure. I've thought about using something that's not mohair. But I'm still not sure what I'm going to do I might just get a black yarn and do a, you know, do the border all in black. Which, knitting with black? I'm not sure I want to do that either. Marsha 38:47 How much... I will say something. Do you think you'll ever wear this? Kelly 38:54 Yeah, I do. Marsha 38:56 Okay. I'm sorry. That's so mean of me. I don't mean to be mean like that. But it's like, Do you love it? You don't know. I mean, you're unsure. Kelly 39:04 I love mohair yarn. You know that. So I love the yarn. I'm not sure I'm loving how it's knitting up. But I don't hate it either. It's it's just, let's just say it will be unusual. It's not, it's not, you know, "on trend" exactly. It's not the, you know, a strand of kidsilk haze that you carry along with your other yarn. This is full on mohair. Marsha 39:40 Right. There was a reason why it's in the destash. Kelly. [laughing] Kelly 39:44 Exactly. But I do like mohair and I have in my memory-- one of my fond memories of clothing. I have lots of good clothing memories from my childhood. In fact I have more clothing memories than I have food memories. So we were talking about that. Aunt Betty and I were talking about that, and I really don't have a lot of food memories from my childhood but I have a lot of clothing memories. And I have the fondest memory of this vest. And I think it was an argyle type pattern that I got in the boys department. When I was in, I think seventh or eighth grade. And it was this kind of full on mohair. Probably not wool mohair probably that Orlon acrylic mohair, because, you know, it was a kid's vest. And I wore that thing all the time. And it was unusual. It was one of those things. It was not one of those things that all the kids were wearing, you know? Marsha 40:51 Yeah. All the cool kids were wearing it. Kelly 40:55 It was one of my, one of my many clothing items that was definitely not on trend. But I really loved it. So I have a feeling that I might, I might not feel quite the same way about this as I felt about that. But it has the same vibe to me. So I think that's why, why I decided to make this vest. And I think it would be good. Like, it'll be warm for sure. I think it'd be good for camping. It'll be good for walking the dogs when it's cold outside. So I think I'll get I think I'll get some wear out of it. I don't know that it will be my go-to piece. So we'll see. But I'm working on it. It's the Rosa Parks colorway from a yarn company called Shaeffer that isn't making yarn anymore. And the the name of the or the type of yarn was Danya mohair. And the really odd thing about it is that it's hardly taken any yarn to make this. I thought I had-- I mean I kind of debated whether I had enough to make to make the vest. But I also am making a vest that calls for, I think, DK and this is at a bulky gauge. So I had, you know, I had to reconfigure the pattern somewhat. So we'll see the, the jury will be out for a while on this one. And I may, it's so hot to knit on. It's not super warm here. But it's you know, it's kind of hot and sticky to knit on and mohair flies up my nose and stuff. So it's not the thing I grab and knit the most often either. I don't have that much to choose from. So that is my only project besides Mother Bears. That was my only project and I wasn't grabbing it to knit. And then I needed something for the road going down to pick up the trailer and bring it back. I thought I would have more time to knit but it was really kind of a whirlwind, looking at other people's trailers, talking to people about the trailer, finding out all the stuff and how it works, you know, all that kind of stuff. So I didn't have much knitting time, but I did bring some leftovers. I have a pair of socks there. Tomato and Mink or Mink and Tomato was the name of the the braid, and it was Falkland handspun and so I have a pair of regular socks out of it, but I had quite a bit of leftover yarn. So I grabbed that and cast on a pair of short socks. So just you know about maybe a maybe an inch and a half to two inch cuff. And then I started the heel and that's about where I am. I think I turned the heel. That's all I've done is a tiny tiny cuff and turn the heel that's all the knitting. And I never--I hardly took out the vest. So I really didn't have much.. Well and the dogs. we had the dogs with us and so I did a lot of walking the dogs at the RV park because they I wanted them to be good and they're a lot better if they've had exercise. And so we did a lot of walking and stuff. Yeah. So anyway, those are my projects, kind of just the vest. Some Mother Bears in the, you know, in the meanwhile. And then the barest start of a pair of shorty socks. So I'm kind of I'm kind of in that place where I don't know. I don't know what to do. I do think... So we sold the other the old trailer The Clubhouse. And this young woman came and she brought her dad because he had the truck with the hitch to pull the trailer home and her mom came too. Really nice people, super nice people. And we got to talking and her mom has this...she said, I have this sweater that I started, but I never was able to finish it, maybe you would be able to finish it. And I at first my thought was like, oh, no, this, you know. Marsha 40:55 Oh no! Kelly 40:55 But, but so I was kind of non committal. I said, Well, you know, I maybe...maybe I would be able to do that. I don't know. And, and then she brought it up again. And finally, I thought, You know what, I'm not super excited about anything I'm knitting. What the hell, you know? Marsha 43:04 Yeah. Kelly 43:04 And so and so I said, Yeah, you know, send it to me, and I'll see what I can do. I'm not gonna guarantee that I'll be able to, you know, finish it, but, but send, send me what you have. And I'll take a look at it and and let you know, and if I can't, I'll send it back. And if I can, I'll do it. And she's like, of course, I'll pay you, you know. And so anyway, I haven't heard from her since the trailer sold. And I'm wondering if maybe she feels like, oh, gosh, I was a little bit too forward to do that. Marsha 46:09 Yeah, she thought, Oh, yeah. This woman was just trying to be nice. She's thinking that about you like, Oh, she's trying to be nice, but... Kelly 46:17 One she got home. Or maybe her daughter after they left said, Mom, I can't believe you did that. So I thought, oh, maybe I'll text the woman who bought the trailer and say, you know, let your mom know, if she wants to send that to go ahead. You know, I'm happy to try it. So we'll see. I don't know, it. Just kind of something different. It kind of gave me an idea like, oh, well, maybe that'd be something different and, and fun to do so. And then the other thing that I did, this isn't a knitting project. But I just wanted to give a shout out. We have a new member who joined the the Ravelry group, AJ, and she introduced herself and let us know that she has the Hooked and Booked podcast. And she has a website too. It's called... her name is-- she she goes by AJ, but her website name is KJ Krochet. And the crochet is spelled with a K. And I'll have links in the show notes. But anyway, she's from South Africa. And she has just maybe three episodes, but it's just a cute, it's a cute show. And I listened to it. And I thought oh, this is fun. So I listened to all her episodes. And then she was talking about another podcast called Crochet Conversations. And she's interested, AJ is interested in having more people podcasting who don't have American accents. She said she feels like all of the podcasts, the knitting podcasts that she listens to, and maybe a lot of the other podcast she listens to also, you know, people with American accents, and there's not a lot from elsewhere. And so, so she was promoting this other podcast for these two women from Singapore. And so I went and listened to it too. And it's also very cute. It's called Crochet Conversations. And it's two women, Inez and Mell from Singapore. And the most recent episode, they're taking you through their house, like room by room talking about what crochet is in their house. And I thought that was really cute. So anyway, I'd like to give a recommendation for the Hooked and Booked podcast and Crochet Conversations and I've linked to both of them in the in the show notes if anybody's if anybody's interested. And I thought you know, that's maybe why I said to you, maybe you need to crochet something because I'm thinking maybe maybe it's time for me to crochet something because I'm just not super excited by anything that that I'm working on right now. So maybe I just need a new inspiration. And the trailer is a big inspiration. Because now I can think of all sorts of things that I could make for the trailer you know. So you know like the cover for your toilet paper [laughing] Well, I mean I'm kidding. Kelly 46:17 Yeah, I got it. [laughing] You need potholders and hand towels and yeah, and Kelly 49:41 and especially those potholders and like what your great aunt what your your Aunt Ruth made, you know. Marsha 49:53 Oh yeah, Great Aunt Ruth Kelly 49:54 1950s style of of crochet potholders, those are really kind of interesting. Marsha 50:02 She did those really cute potholders that I don't know how she did it but there's rick rack in there. So you see part-- you see one point of the rick rack but not the other point of the rick rack. So it makes all these little triangles kind of Kelly 50:16 Yeah, Marsha 50:17 yeah, I've never seen a pattern like that but and I was also gonna say too that I've seen I had not seen crochet patterns for pillows, but knitted pillows I see, you know, covers with color work. And that might be kind of fun, too. Yeah. Because you're going to need some pillows on the sofa. Knit something--a cover--or crochet something. Yeah, you did the bee pillow, but something like? Kelly 50:44 Yeah, so I think I think I might crochet or weave. Marsha 50:49 Well, yeah, weaving too. Kelly 50:52 I think I might make -- Robert brought regular bath towels. And we used the shower at the at the RV park, not the shower in the trailer. But one of the issues with the towels is that they take up so much space. And then you have to get them to dry. And Hetti had been talking in the winter weave along about the spa towels that she made. Because in Santa Cruz, it's kind of damp where she lives and she wanted towels that would dry. She was experimenting with different weave structures to see if she could get some towels that would that would dry quickly. You know, be absorbent, but also dry quickly. And then also they take up less space. You know those heavy terrycloth towels. They--not that we don't have the space, but they take up more space. And so yeah, if I could, I could weave something that might be really kind of a cool idea. So So yeah, I have some I have some other inspirations that I haven't had in a while, or haven't ever had really, that's kind of fun. So maybe someone else's sweater and then maybe some crochet and we'll see. We'll see. Check with us next time, listeners, to see if we've improved our attitudes. Marsha 52:21 Yes, I know. Well, I'm hoping my I'm hoping it might... Well maybe it is all my attitude, hopefully my attitude will. It's funny thinking about my attitude because I made the comment that part of all these projects I've been doing have been for other people. It makes me sound so selfish. Kelly 52:36 But you know it's your hobby. Marsha 52:39 It is my hobby. I've been doing this, but I was down working in the basement and I pulled out because I finished the the socks remember that I had lost the blue, the navy blue for the toe. And I found it in the last episode. So I finished that sock. Oh, I didn't put that in my finished projects. Yes, I completely forgot. I did not put that in my finished objects. But I did finish that. And so instead of putting the Navy away, I knew that I had bought a skein of yarn for my brother, he had picked it out. And the Navy would work really well with it for heels and toes. So I pulled out that skein of yarn and wound it into a cake to cast those on for him. And I'm thinking maybe I should not do that. Given that. Yes, I'm thinking that this is... I should have a conversation with myself. Kelly 53:35 Yeah, maybe you need to do something. Do some self indulgent knitting. Marsha 53:41 Yeah, yeah. Kelly 53:43 To go with your, your projects for other people. Marsha 53:48 You know what I'd like to knit is I have a combo spin that I made Kelly 53:55 oh yeah, that's a pretty one with silk. Marsha 53:58 I've never knit that up. And I would sort of like to knit that but there you go. Kelly 54:03 Start that one. Marsha 54:04 Yeah, there's no, I don't know. Okay. No complaining. Everyone, everybody's gonna want me to finish these projects as soon as possible so they don't have to hear about it anymore. Anyway, okay, next order of business. Kelly 54:21 I'm in the process of getting all of the winter weave along gift cards purchased. So if you won in the winter weave along you'll be hearing from me or getting an email with your gift card information. Either already or very shortly. I also have sent out all of the prizes, finally for the stitches giveaway that we did. I sent them out today. And I think that's the only business that we have. We do still have the SpeakPipe. SpeakPipe, they need to change their name, no one can say it. All right, Speakpipe.com/twoewes, you can go there and you can leave a message about your favorite local yarn store. Or you can send it to us in an audio file, send it via email. Again, that's twoewes@twoewesfiberadventures.com, you can email us an audio file from your phone, or your computer or wherever. And tell us about your favorite yarn shop. We'd love to hear all about your yarn shop in your area. So I think that's really all. The Blanket Along ends this week. We talked about that. Marsha 55:51 Let's just say what's going on. So the Stashbusting blanket along ends May 31. So and then the summer spin in starts June 1, and that, and that will go all summer. So one ends on the 31st. And the next event, or along, or whatever--contest--starts the next day, June 1, and that will go the entire summer and it ends September 5, which in the United States is Labor Day. So we've talked about this before. Memorial Day is sort of the unofficial start of summer, which is in May, and then Labor Day is sort of the unofficial end of summer. And so the summer spin-in will be June 1 through September 5. And then again, we're going to be at the Black Sheep gathering in Albany, Oregon. And that's June 24 through 26th. And that Saturday, we'll have a meet up at the trailer. Yeah. And Kelly, Should we just pick a time? Yeah, Kelly 56:53 Let's say 3:30 or 4:00. Yeah. Marsha 56:57 Yeah. Kelly 56:58 It's not like there's a definite, it's not like, well, you know, it's a party, so come after 3:30. We might not be there if you come before 3:30. Marsha 57:13 Yeah. We know a few people are coming to black sheep. Kelly 57:15 And maybe we'll see some people who we've met in previous years. Who are going to be there too. They haven't had black sheep for a couple of years. So it will be really good. It will be fun to be back to another fiber festival. Marsha 57:40 Yes. Okay, Kelly, I think that's everything Kelly 57:45 I do too. Marsha 57:45 Or anything else. Kelly 57:46 Oh, no, I think that's it. Next episode. I want to talk a little bit more about my plans for the summer spin in. What I'm gonna do with the fleeces in my garage, maybe. But yeah, that's for next time. Maybe I'll have a sweater to work. Yes. Maybe it'll arrive in the mail someone else's sweater. Marsha 58:08 Yeah, yeah. Kelly 58:10 Okay. That'll give us something to talk about. Right? Marsha 58:14 Yes, I know. Well, we'll talk in two weeks and we'll find out if you have a sweater. Kelly 58:18 Okay, sounds good. All right. Okay, Marsha 58:21 bye bye. Kelly 58:22 Thank you so much for listening.

Raglan foragers Emily Eldin and Sean Mills' new business has mushroomed out of lock-down and is taking them on a wild journey. The real-estate agent and hospitality worker couple were foraging for wild edible mushrooms during the first lockdown in March 2020. Little did they know the fresh pink and grey oyster mushrooms they then decided to have a go at themselves would soon be selling out at Waikato farmers' markets. Demand is outstripping supply. But they are also selling grow-bags and moving on into the field of medicinal mushrooms. Their business is Mushrooms by the Sea
Orford Mining Corporation is a Canada-based mineral resource company. The Company is primarily focused on the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of base and precious metal assets. It is a gold exploration Company focused on prospective and underexplored areas of Northern Quebec. The Company's principal assets are the Qiqavik and West Raglan projects comprising a land package totaling over 80,000 hectares in the Cape Smith Belt of Northern Quebec. The Qiqavik Project hosts several new gold discoveries along a 40 kilometer (km) mineralized trend. The West Raglan project hosts Raglan-style nickel/copper/platinum group metal discoveries along a 55 km mineralized trend. The Company has three property positions in the Joutel region of the Abitibi District of northern Quebec, which hosts deposits such as the Eagle/Telbel, Joutel Copper, Poirier Copper, and Vezza deposits. The Company seeks new gold exploration opportunities in North America.
If the worst of Covid comes to pass and food supplies get hit - growing your own mushrooms might be the solution. That's what one Raglan couple did during lockdown - and now it's sprouted into a successful business. Emily Eldin and Sean Mills run Mushrooms by the Sea, where they sell weird and wonderful varieties, and mushroom growing kits. Sean talks to Lisa Owen.
