Comments on: Episode 69: Lovingly Hand Knit By You http://www.cast-on.com/?p=588 a podcast about knitting Sun, 05 Sep 2010 05:46:07 +0200 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Bernie http://www.cast-on.com/?p=588&cpage=3#comment-17131 Bernie Sun, 29 Mar 2009 20:57:01 +0000 http://www.cast-on.com/?p=588#comment-17131 Hello Brenda, This is my 1st time so be gentle. I bought my 1st iPod in Jan '08 and started putting music and photos on, I found iTunes and podcasts, I was thrilled then I found you. I sooooo LOVE your podcast, it is soothing, funny, enlightening, friendly, loving, musical and informative. Not to mention THOUGHT-PROVOKINGNESS what a great word and so appropriate. Written by Monica on Oct 7th '08. Wow that lot surprised me as I have had CFS for almost 18 months and have a lot of misthoughts, concentration lapses, breaks in sentences and low times, but listening to you is FAB, and am so amazed that I could even come up with these words, let alone make reasonable sentences and words of encouragement, even some of the words surprised me. I I downloaded all your back catalogue, so to speak and went on to listen happily. I also have trouble sleeping with CFS and listen to you while in bed, I find your voice so soothing with no surprised to make me jump that I find myself drifting off naturally the only problem then is to rewind to find out where I remember I was before entering the land of Nod. I'm not opposed to ads myself, but also prefer to have them at the beginning and end of your podcasts. Would also love to have Craft Related ads if that is at all possible. But whatever you decide to do Brenda I'm here to tell you that I love you and what you do. Your life and home stories are so interesting and I often laugh out loud to myself and have done it on the bus too. I'm not worried what other passengers think as I have often laughed out loud and giggled outrageously while reading on the buses in the past. Keep up the good work, always look forward to hearing you. I have listened to some other knitting podcasts including Webbs husband and wife team, which I like. Found a few that I wasn't keen on with sisters giggling and not a lot of input. You are so so FAB keep charming us. Lots and lots of LOVE to you and yours. Bernie Hello Brenda,

Thanks for stopping by! Thanks, also, for letting me know about the Saturn ad. If you downloaded the file while the campaign was running, it would have had the ad attached, BUT... it should not be attached to the files now. I will download this one myself, and check it out. Thanks for the heads up! Lisa, I read EVERY comment that comes in, even the ones on the older episodes. Thanks for stopping by!

It didn't interrupt anything for me. Also, I don't mind the commercial. It wasn't in my face, didn't last long and I can see a benefit for you, not to mention, while I work for a different manufacturer, I suspect some of your listeners drive/purchase/maintain cars. I'm an occasional listener, but should have at least told you I enjoy listening from Detroit. I'm in the process of listening to your archived programs. You have a perfect voice and tone of serious/humour for this work. Please consider this encouragement to continue your work. Regards, Dunno if this will be read at this late date, but in case:

I'm at the second to newest podcast. I know it's coming. Soon I'll be one of the mass, I'm going to have to WAIT for new Cast Ons. I'm gutted. For the last 6 months I've been slowly creeping up to this point. I thought that I'd never get there.... I couldn't wait to catch up. And now what do I have to look forward to? I shouldn't have done it, but I've hurried up only to wait. DAMN! Foiled again. Brenda thanks for entertaining me for 70 hours! my gosh... time flies. My xmas gift to you is coming via paypal. Many thanks for a job well done and happy holidays! Lots of love, your American kiwi friend whom-you've-never-met -Amy Oh noooooo! I’m at the second to newest podcast. I know it’s coming.

I was just catching up on your last few podcasts as I knit away at one of my last custom orders for Christmas. Working from home as a knitting designer, I love having your podcast to listen to as I work. There are always inspiring ideas and great music, and it makes me feel really connected to the knitting world. Thanks so much! As requested in your podcast, leaving a comment here for the first time!

I listen to many, and find that your professionalism and exacting standards have a wonderful rippling effect on other podcasters. Thanks so much for all the hardwork, and the delightful music. The music was an unexpected bonus for me. I thought I was just getting some knitting and good times. Did not know that I would benefit from the discovery of excellent tunes too.

I was listening so faithfully last spring and then a series of things happened (including misplacing my ipod for two months! Why was it in the instant-oatmeal-packet box?), and I was on hiaitus, apparently as you are now. And now I'm caught up and must go seek out other knitting podcasts (poor me, eh?). It was wonderful to hear your voice, your humor, your thoughts. I can't imagine going through what you went through to design that bamboo sweater (I think that was a podcast or two ago). I can barely modify an existing pattern with success. As to ads, on the one hand, I support you in wanting the podcast to have a steady income. That is important. On the other, I figure I'm paying with my wallet, or my ears. I'd rather pay with my wallet (and will be donating right now). But it's not as though ad placement will prevent me from listening. It's hard to think what would prevent me. Your being boring? Nah, that's not going to happen. Your killing innocent spiders? (chuckle) Nope, I'm still here! As long as you continue to talk about yarn and needles in your charismatic fashion, I'll be here. Knit on, my friend. Oh my dear, I’ve missed you.
