- Ok - this week's episode was full of interruptions, but I have hopefully got those edited out. Also, it took me until the second try to figure out to "flip" the camera so that the writing was correct when I showed a label on the screen! Oops! Next week will be better. At least I think this week's audio and video are in sync! Please let me know if they are not. Also, I am not sure what that funny background noise is. Sorry!

Girlfriends Knitting is a cozy corner of the internet where yarn, friendship, and real life intertwine.

This podcast is for women who love to knit—but also love honest conversation. The kind…
that happens when your hands are busy, your guard is down, and the truth slips out between stitches.
Hosted by Dr. Carolyn Warren Wiley of Rose & Pearl Publishing, Girlfriends Knitting is part knitting circle, part living room chat. We talk about creativity, faith, motherhood, work, rest, calling, and the small, quiet moments that shape a life—without pretending everything is tidy or finished.
You don’t need to be an expert knitter. You don’t even need to be holding needles. You just need a longing for connection, beauty, and meaningful conversation that feels like sitting across from a friend who gets it.
Pull up a chair. Grab your yarn (or your coffee).
This is your invitation to slow down, make something with your hands, and remember you’re not doing life alone.
