Thanks for the New Year podcast! I recently considered making legwarmers after seeing my very cool pilates teacher wearing them. I, however, am not nearly as cool and I fear I will look so weird. Jenny, your outfit with them sounds so cute. Also, on the subject of blankets/throws, I knit two blankets in 2009 and loved them. Here are links:

Hi! 10,000 hours is equal to five years at a full-time job. We used 2000 hours as equivalent to one year: 40hrs/wk x 50 weeks = 2000
It appears that I won't master knitting for another 20 years, anyway...

Hi and Happy New Year. I found your podcast a while ago, listened from the beginning and have just caught up with you. I'm really enjoying listening to your conversations.
A Slanket is much like a Snuggie, only it appeared on the market earlier. Sleeves + Blanket = Slanket. A wonderful winter knitting tool.
I also made several Christmas gifts from the Knitted Amigurumi book you talked about last time. I totally love it, too.
