About Sticks & String and me
G’day all. I’m David Reidy, an Australian bloke who lives in the Blue Mountains two hours west of Sydney, and knits and podcasts about knitting. Away from the sticks and string, I’m an astrophysicist who now teaches high school. In my knitting and podcasting endeavours I am assisted by my two Burmese cats, Tikka and Tiger.
The Sticks and String podcast appears weekly, so look for a new show each weekend.

Have fun at camp, we’ll miss you!
FYI I have had the crochet hook/needle for many years maybe 20. I can’t remember where I got them, but they came in a case such as Bernat used for their circular needles many years ago. The label reads “PERLAC for lightweight yarn, size 1 needle, size b hook”. I have one for sport weight and worsted weight yarn. I forgot I had them until I heard you mention this item on your podcast which I enjoy very much. You are encouraging me to try fairisle knitting as this is something I have always wanted to do. I have been knitting for approx. 60 years and this is about the only thing I haven’t done. Anyway keep up the good work. I really enjoy listening to you.
So great to hear you talk about St.Paul and Garrison Keillor! And yes, you are correct, we are called Minnesotans
And we can drive our cars on water, sadly our accents aren’t that great…
I can’t download this episode
Your next episode downloaded just fine, and so did the previous episode. iTunes just doesn’t like this one apparently.
what happened to episode 36? Did I miss something?
