Lime & Violet - I think it's done well (i.e. doesn't sound like it's recorded in your dorm room) and I'm always intrigued by their WIPs, reviews and topics.<BR/><BR/>2. Stash and Burn - again, good content.<BR/><BR/>3.

My fav is Cast On. I love Brenda's voice and her format and her guest essayists. I also like the Knitpicks podcast and I was happy to find out that is was not a huge commercial.

And you know, I've finally come to terms with the fact that I just don't like podcasts.
