I love love love love that shop. They have everything that a knitter could want and more. The shop assistants are always so helpful and nice and never get annoyed w/ my silly knitting questions. I'm very lucky to live so close to such a fab yarn shop. The Get Knitted shop is just around the corner from where I live in Bristol. I love love love love that shop.

I am going back and starting with Episode 1 and working my way forward while I learn how to weave on my rigid heddle loom. I love to knit, but it doesn't love me. (I have very bad tendenitis in my left wrist that hurts all the way to my neck if I make more than a few rows.) So I've switched to weaving, and after exhausting Syne's wonderful archives of Weavecast, I have come back to Cast On. Your enthusiasm for handknit socks made me change mine this morning into the only pair I was able to knit for myself before my wrist gave out. Maybe I can find a knitter who would like a handwoven scarf in exchange for handknit socks?? Just wanted to send you a comment across the pond to say thank you again for creating Cast On, for putting so much hard work into it and for sending it out into the world. It is so, so greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Ginny Brenda-

Someone complained about the music you play. I LOVE IT! But as 'they' say, you can't please everyone. I say .... keep up the great work. I absolutely love listening to your podcast. I feel like I'm sitting down with a friend when I listen to you. And to your critics... remember what your momma told you... If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all.

You are the best. Your voice is like honey. My needles make lovely patterns listening to you, and time does not exist. Thank you for such great hours of pleasure. I'm so glad you are going weekly!

Makes time fly! Looking forward to future shows.

One comment - I believe the cables in the Rogue were inspired by Elsebeth Lavold's "Viking Patterns for Knitting."

I know my blog isn't big or anything like that, but I did give your podcast a favorable review because of the music you choose. I love heavy metal but you just can't knit to it ;D.
