What a fun episode as always! I thought I would shed some light on the audiobook thing. It's very likely the narrator is from the US. I'm an author (and knitter!), and it can be so had to find narrators native to the place where the book is written who are available at the time the audiobook is being created, and the bulk of the narrators are US speakers, then followed by British speakers. Trying to find someone from Australia, NZ and even Canada can be tough as they get snapped up quickly and book out very far in advance. The "toque" thing really threw me when I first moved to Canada. In Australia, where I'm from, we call those knitted hats "beanies " :)

Canadian here (from Ontario). We pronounce toque like you said. The pronunciation that the audiobook narrator is using (toke) is the word for smoking marijuana lol

I’m loving all of your projects & color choices. Please give yourself grace. Loss of a loved one is a huge trauma that takes time and energy. And as a mom you are not only dealing with your own grief you are also feeling it for your husband and children. One recommendation…I also have bad hand and wrist pain from an autoimmune condition, I started wearing Grace & Able compression gloves sometimes while knitting but definitely after a knitting session. They help me immensely in addition to the PT exercises.

Hello!

Absolutely love that green color and the tank. I can't wait to make it myself. Have you ever tried Everand (previously Scribd) for audiobooks? The membership is $11.99 a month. You don't get credits, and you don't get a book to own, but you have access to an unlimited number of audiobooks every month, and they have an amazing selection. I do have Audible for when I desperately want a new release the minute it comes out, but if you're willing to wait 30 days, Everand gets a LOT of the newer releases eventually. And they usually have some sort of free trial membership, for like 30 days or something? I don't have any affiliation with them. I just absolutely love them. My wishlist is about 100 years deep and growing. I never have to feel rushed to finish a book because you have access as long as you have a membership, and I can have multiple books going at once. I don't tend to listen to a book more than once, so owning them doesn't tend to matter to me. Something worth trying if you haven't already. :)

About toque... Here in Québec, Canada, we call all woolen winter hat a "tuque" like you said. In french, a toque is a specific kind of hat, with a cylinder form, like a chef hat or those old fur hat, and it is pronounced like you heard in your audiobook. I don't know if it is the same in english though...

A great podcast, a little bit of everything. Summer is such a great season; it comes and goes around me in a few months. Finding summer knitting patterns to knit and wear is very fun. Summer colors are some of my favorites. Your custom yarn is beautiful, I liked seeing around your farm, the flowers and bees, very pretty. With anything we do often we find it easier, and we get better. Comparing my early knits, sewing or even cooking, I am much better at it now and even enjoy wearing what I make. All the best to you and your family. Thank you for a great episode.

You should see what libraries in your state offer a free digital library card for Libby. I’m in Texas and the Houston public library and Harris County have digital library cards for any Texas resident. Using these library cards on Libby in combo with my actual library card means I always have a book to listen to. Each library system has different hold amounts/ check out amounts/ availability

@@YoungfolkKnits I just googled free Texas state digital library cards. Someone had already done the work for me in Texas, but you could also check major cities in your area or neighboring counties what their policy is. Once I filled out that county’s digital library card application and received the card, I went to Libby and added it! In Libby, you go to the center icon (three lines) and then under your current library card, there should be a “add library” and manage cards” area.
