not blogs, but podcast recommendationsYou may remember that Noo recommended BritKnitCast a while back. If you like that then I'm sure you'll also like Lixie Knits It . It's a newish one, British again, based in the North, and was recommended by Carrie Anne in BritKnitCast a while ago. It had me laughing out loud on the train the other day
Another one that is British-based, in Wales, although the caster is American, is Cast On , and that also regularly has me in stitches. No pun intended ....
Just thought I'd share

Hi FatCat, thank you for the podcast recommendations. I've started listening to Britknitcast and Lime and Violet. I'll have to check out the Lexie Knits It podcast as I hadn't heard of that one before.
I found that I couldn't listen to them at night in bed as I nodded off and was woken up by their laughter when listening to L&V.
I really like listening to them on the weekend when I'm knitting and I plug my ipod into it's speaker and I find them great to knit to.

thanks Hawkesley, I've only just got around to listening to Lime and Violet and I was laughing out loud on the train!
Just realised that Lixie is London-based, not North - sorry! Got confused because the first one I listened to was her reporting on travelling around yarnshops in the North. And she's great cos she calls everything wool, regardless of whether there's any wool in it or not
