Author and crochet designer Mary Beth Temple (look for a design from her in the summer Interweave Crochet) has started a new Blog Talk Radio show about crochet. Her first guest is Amy O'Neill Houck, and the show is really great. Check it out!

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of talking to Marly of the YarnThing podcast. She brought up several topics including what I'm looking to accomplish through Interweave Crochet, how the submission process works, CrochetMe.com, and more. If you have 45 minutes to spare, have a listen (you don't need an iPod). If questions pop up, ask over on the IC blog and I'll do my best to answer. I hope to talk to Marly more in the future.

Yesterday, the folks over at the Lion Brand YarnCraft podcast interviewed The Friday Night Knitting Club author Kate Jacobs. To follow up on the theme of social crafting, they gave a shout-out to several online yarn communities, including this here one (thanks, ladies!). If you're looking to connect with local crocheters, check out our Act Locally forums.
