Welcome to the Kitchen Stitches Podcast!

So, I’m trying my hand at this podcasting thing. Don’t expect anything fancy, just me blabbing about my knitting and cooking and whatever else strikes my fancy. I hope you enjoy it, and I hope you come back! I did no editing on this episode; I just needed to publish it before I chickened out! It will become more polished over time, I’m sure.
