Love this!

I really love the info she gives and she’s just a great storyteller.

Fabulous!

I discovered this podcast when I came across the list of audio podcasts the commuter knitter listened to. I listened to episode 44, then went back to listen to episodes 41 thru 43. I've enjoyed everyone and this is one I plan to listen to as long as the podcaster will do so.

Wonderful!

Hands down my favorite podcast! Ness' voice is very soothing and calm to listen to on my way to and from work. As a beginning spinner and intermediate knitter, all of the fiber "threads" Ness describes are fascinating to listen to. I look forward to each new episode of the podcast!
