Today’s Web Wednesday is knitting related.  One of the newer podcasts that I’ve been checking out is the KnitPicks podcast.  It is interesting to hear the stories of some of the employees of KnitPicks, I sometimes wonder what it would be like to work in a knitting related business. 

Most interesting to me so far has been Episode 4, Wool:  from start to finish.  In that episode, Kelley discussed the characteristics of the fleece from different type of sheep, and how that effects the end yarn.  I’ve often heard of crimp and staple length, but never really thought about how it applys to the yarn.  As someone who isn’t a spinner, this was really informative.
