Sleevos by Elizabeth Green Musselman of Darkmatter Knits (and Assistant Editor at Cooperative Press, and audio editor, and ... yes, she is amazing!) is for the child who just refuses to wear sweaters (or the runner, or the AC-frozen office worker)
Jane's Ubiquitous Shawl by Erica Hernandez is available as a standalone pattern in addition to being part of the first volume of What Would Madame Defarge Knit®?... and figuring prominently in today's chapter.
Issue I : Botanicals Spring/Summer 2013 of The Crochet Project just launched. Listener and Designer Elly has a cute cloche hat in this collection!
Tail End by our sponsor Penny Shima Glanz of Little Acorn Creations is a very quick to crochet cat toy.

General Newsy Bits:

Emily Needs Stem Cells. Her cancer returned and a stem cell transplant could save her life. Please help. Please share the word. If you are eligible, please join the registry. Ethnic minorities are underrepresented in the databases, so please join. It's easy and free. Donors do not pay to donate marrow. All medical costs for the donation procedure are covered by the National Marrow Donor Program or by the patient's medical insurance.
The shop has been receiving some much needed attention and we are now able to offer downloads of the books—audiobooks with benefits. If you are looking for a book from Craftlit that we did years ago, please hang in there. We're reprocessing for better audio and cutting some of the extra stuff so it's a nice streamlined download. As those are ready we'll add them to the shop. Wuthering Heights and Canterville Ghost originally available free to premium subscribers are now available for purchase. Cool for Cats is also available.
If you want to subscribe to support the show, you can read all about the new interface here and discover the simplicity of listening to CraftLit on-the-go on your iPhone/iTouch/Android for free. Now playing... The Great Gatsby in our new "Just the Benefits" format! 
Please feel free to join our Knit-a-Long for Jane's Ubiquitous Shawl. I'm done, but starting another (color me gluttonous).
