In this episode, Circe and Daedalus (aka “Daedy”) make it to Crete to find a pregnant Pasiphae in need of some birthing assistance with her…baby? Sure, we will call it a baby. Join us for the labyrinth-like twists and turns of chapters 10-12.

On the stitch-front, we take a breather from the Hawthorne Tank and share some other fun WIPs!

In this episode, we get familiar with the island, Aiaia, alongside Circe as she explores and experiments with herbs and finds her familiar. An unexpected visitor arrives and things get steamy, then Circe embarks on a dangerous journey (dun dun dunnn!).

After the book talk, we find out how far along Julia and AJ have gotten with their Hawthorne Tanks - Have they caught up to Katie? Listen and find out!

In this episode, Circe has a close encounter with, bum bum bummmm - a human! Then, we hop on the wild roller coaster of love. We discuss the ups, the downs, the transformation into a god. You know, normal stuff. It’s all going well as Circe discovers her powers, until she takes things a bit too far.

Plus, AJ, Julia and Katie share some other WIPS that are on their hooks and needles!

Who is Circe? What sets her apart from other gods and immortals? Join us as we embark on our literary adventure to learn all about who the infamous enchantress was before her legendary encounter with Odysseus and beyond.

In this episode, we discuss Chapters 1-3, exploring who Circe’s family is, how Prometheus lit a fire that fueled her curiosity towards humans (pun intended), and how her love for a brother shapes her sense of self.

Read along and stitch along as we cast on our Hawthorne Tanks!
