    Congrats on starting your podcast! You seem like a good team. If I may make a few suggestions:

    * A link for each item, instead of just the shop would be great.

    * In future podcasts, could you speak more about the process of spinning, especially since one of you uses the wheel and the other has spindles.

    I look forward to the next episode and see your progression as spinners and podcasters!

      Thanks for the comment! I always appreciate suggestions and I'll definitely keep them in mind! (After 6 hours of fighting with blip and movie maker I totally got lazy for the first episode.)

    You guys did a great job... I especially like that Dori is a new spinner like me and spinning on a spindle. It was interesting to see all the little "bobbins" she used. What I want to know is... how do you Navajo ply with a spindle???? I'm spinning my Loop Batt right now and want to Navaho ply it when I'm done. :)

    Thanks, Daniela! We'll try and work Navajo ply into our next episode...it depends on how well my hand is. If it's not up to spinning by next week, I promise we'll get some Navajo ply on a spindle as soon as my hand is better!

      I'm hoping to get that done this weekend, or at least get the process started. Hopefully it won't take me too long.

    You guys are adorable! I started spinning in January and can't get enough. I used to live in Mt. Pleasant. I really miss the beach. Keep up the good work.

    Really enjoyed your podcast! I have just started spinning on a drop spindle and can't stop :)
