Blogiversary Contest
It is a good thing my blog isn't a friend or relative because I would have some serious making up to do. I am about 2 weeks late but June is my Blogiversary Month! To celebrate 2 years of Wrap and Turn I am holding a contest.
To enter, simply leave a comment with your favorite blog or podcast. I am alway son the lookout for another knitter's perspective on things. The contest will end on June 30th at 6pm PST. I will randomly choose a winner from the comments.
The prize- 2 skeins of Knitpicks Memories in Flower Power, a color that is no longer in production. I am sure a few other trinkets will fall into the box too. Good Luck!

Yay I get to be first. I'm on the lookout for new blogs these days too. Here's one I just discovered yesterday as a matter of fact that I'm sure I'll be spending a lot of time going through the archives of.

Hmmm...I'm a fan of turtlegirl's blog for her productivity. She finishes more in a month than I do in a year. I'm a fan of brooklyntweed's blog just for the drool-worthy photos. It's not exactly knitting, but Cat Morley's Cut Out + Keep blog is great inspiration for looking at things in new ways.
And I have to say, I'm a fan of Wrap and Turn :)
I think it was the "beer inspired socks" that got you into my bloglines.
Happy anniversary!

I don't think it counts, since it's not really a knitting blog, but my favorite blog is Making Light: http://nielsenhayden.com/makinglight/
Politics, books, snark, and the occasional knitting topic.

Hi there, if you haven't already, you've got to check out The Knitting Cook podcast (http://www.theknittingcook.com/ --though she hasn't updated in a while due to the birth of her daughter!) or Craftlit (http://www.craftlit.libsyn.com/ -- which is updated just about once a week and is fantastic).
Stash and Burn (www.stashandburn.com/) is another favourite, they're on holiday right now and I miss them!
My favourite knitting blogs for inspiration is probably ysloda (http://ysolda.me.uk/wordpress/) who is just remarkable, but the non-knitting would have to go to Whoopee, whose hilarious (http://yetanotherbloomingblog.blogspot.com/).
Phew! Woudl you believe it took me a good half hour of flipflopping to come up with this list?

I'm fond of January One and Knit and Tonic. They both have a humor that just works for me. I haven't really jumped into podcasts yet, so no suggestions there.

I'm sure I'm not alone, but the Yarn Harlot is my favorite knitting blog. But I am also a politican junkie and so I must recommend firedoglake as well!

If it were deemed I could only read one blog it would certainly be Brainylady.
http://brainylady.blogspot.com/
I'm sure you probably know about her already though. I'd miss the others an awful lot.

I really like fleegle's blog, and not just because she's amazingly creative and knits incredible lace. She also puts up helpful yarn tables and translations of Japanese knitting symbols and such.

Wrap and turn of course!
For podcasts I love Stash & Burn because they're fun and local gals. And I'm been enchanted byt the Changeling's podcast because they're creative, http://changelingsknitandstitch.wordpress.com/

I enjoy several blogs but think one of may favorite stopovers is Rose-Kim Knits on Thursdays. Her "Thursdays are for what the Hell is this" are just too funny.

There are two that I can think of that I check all the time. First is Karen's blog at www.cooknknit.com,,, is there anything that the girl cant do? And do quickly? Secondly is Bean's blog at www.ladybean73.wordpress.com
Honestly, is there anything that these 2 ladies cant knit, spin or sew?
