Episode 9 – Malabrigo Day!
Clear your iPods, this is a long one!
Today the Savvy Girls go wild – traveling to the ends of the earth (or at least to Uruguay) for interesting knitting tidbits.
Melanie buys some companionship (no, it’s not what you think!); and Deborah professes her love for all things Malabrigo.
We are going to The Rhinebeck Festival on October 17.
If you are in the New York area and want to rideshare with us, contact us ASAP.
Interesting links from today’s episode include:

You wear them, so why not bring it back?

I’ve never left a comment on iTunes before, but you two absolutely deserve one. You’ve earned it since your first episode, actually, but this last episode? Aces. You guys are just fascinating.
Love you both – equally but differently. Funny & interesting stuff!

So I cast on a new project and sat down to listen to another great episode and was quite surprised when I heard my name mentioned! I was definitely not expecting that and may have actually began to blush into my knitting when I heard my name. How you kept that a secret from me Deborah is a wonder, and I am so very excited for my package from Argentina via New York!!
Hope the trip is going well.

What does an uncle have to do to get something knit?

I love, love, love your podcast. Every episode. I’m currently knitting a project with Malabrigo Silky Merino and I love it and it’s more wonderful than I can say, but after listening to your visit to the Malabrigo headquarters, I love my yarn even more!
Have fun at Rhinebeck…looking forward to hearing about it.

TOOOO Funny….and Melanie… I know how long it’s been since you’ve had gerbils….(don’t worry I won’t tell)
“Deborah” It took me 2 1/2 mins to figure out who’s voice that was….you ladies have always made me laugh and now this tops it.
St. Albert Rocks!
