I am working on writing the pattern for the Carie Bag. My SheKnitsforKnitters.com shop is going to have exclusive patterns my Etsy shop won't have, there is one on there now...was that a good teaser?? The Carie Bag will be listed there also...probably by next weeks end.
I am still unsuccessful with the Sirdar Coat whilst everyone else (almost) on that KAL) has finished!
Out of my funk has come the inspiration to finally knit the Fiber Trend Clogs..now I can talk about it on the She-Knits Podcast group Fiber Trends clog KAL thread YAYYY!!!!
I still am anticipating WICKED and if you would like, come join that KAL on Ravelry in the She-Knits Podcast group entitled Wicked Anticipation. We will be doing it towards the end of January. I think I can , I think I can , I think I can.....
Knitting Daily has the re-vamped Central Park Hoodie pattern for sale.

I know you say not to leave you comments here - but I don't have Ravelry, and I've wanted to let you know for a while now that I look forward every week to listening to your podcast. I love the knitting circle style to it. I don't have a "real life" circle I can join, so your podcast is one that I take great enjoyment from.
I don't need you to reply to this, but just so you know that someone on the other side of the world takes great pleasure in your weekly rambles I'm leaving my details all the same.
My name is Nic, I'm based in Australia, and my email is shioned1@hotmail.com.
I have just found your podcast recently and have loved catching up on past episodes! I don't even knit - crochet only so far - so I have to enjoy your bag patterns "from afar" and they are gorgeous.
Just wanted to point you toward the Knit Picks podcast called "Give the Gift of Knitting"that she did a couple of weeks ago. In it, she gives hints about how she teaches knitting to others. She apparently is quite an experienced teacher, so you might get some valuable info there.
Looking forward to hearing more about how your class preparation is going, and everything else! Merry Christmas!
