We’re off into the woods looking for bracken, and answers to the deep philosophical questions of life that may be found in the stitches of an Alice Starmore sweater. I’ll tell you how trigger points help knitting-related repetitive stress injuries, how the builders next door are nearly ready to stop [...]

Stopping by the woods on a snowy morning, selfish knitting month continues, and I give away my sister. It’s the Millennium Woodscast.

We’re at ground zero of our 20 mile radius this week, with mince pies, sloe gin, knitting lessons from a 14th century logician. Let it snow, baby! I’ve got my love (and a new scarf) to keep me warm.
The polworth scarf was knit using Stephanie Pearl Mcphee’s [...]

Thank you.
Merry Christmas Brenda! Thanks for giving the gift of your podcasts throughout the year. It’s always a thrill to see a new episode pop up. Your voice is a comforting companion. Wishing you and yours all the best in the new year.
Lovely!
I also thank you for all the work you put into the podcast for us. I’m always honored to be invited to the picnic in the castle gardens.
Wishing you a very merry holiday!
Brenda, this is a beautiful card. What a nice treat. I received my mp3 player for my birthday last week and I downloaded all your podcasts. I started at the beginning so as not to miss anything. I love your podcasts. Thank you so much for your time and effort.

Beautiful!
What gorgeous e-card! Thank you so much. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.
Thank you so much for the gorgeous Jacquie Lawson e-card. I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE her cards and this new one is especially beautiful…although I kept expecting Chumley to come in and wreak havoc in his usual fashion.
Here’s wishing you a peaceful, joyous holiday and more success and happiness for the new year.

Thank you, Brenda, for all the magical podcast moments and the lovely e-card. I really like the animated snow on the blog–if only the flakes piled up outside my house were as ethereal.
Kathleen
Lovely! and it played at my work, too! I hope you have a very nice holiday season.
Thank you Brenda. Hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Wow, this is beautiful – thank you!! And thank you for your wonderful podcast as well. Have a great holiday and a happy new year, too!
Thank- You Brenda! I just found your podcast in Nov of this year and I have been listening ever since. I am new at all this podcast stuff and blogs…but thanks to you I hardly ever watch TV anymore and I listen to less and less radio. The new Music I have fallen in love …Oh thanks again! I have been knitting for 30 yrs or more. I am 43 and I can’t really remember when I started but I can’t really remember not knitting! I have to thanks you again for teaching me so much about what’s going on in the knitting world! Thanks for teaching me so much…I am only on #37 and listen and learn almost everyday! I have started listening to you while I do housework which I hate…house work, not listening to you! You make me laugh everyday. I just loved learning about chub creek and I listen to them now also and the Mini’s I read their travel journal. I listened to you on Sage’s podcast…the Blue peach, too funny. I live in PEI and thought it was funny that your Phillip was from there! Well I could go on and on but my DH is waiting for me to go out…I will go with him as it was he who got me my MP3 player and I was able to download you and take you with me!
Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New year!
Your Knitsib,
Darlene

Merry Christmas, Brenda!
Yay! SO loving the card (and the snow), Brenda – it’s been a great year to be on the receiving end of Cast-On glory. Thanks for doing what you do, and making the internet a place for crafters to gather.
Season’s Greetings!

Wishing you and yours a joy filled holiday!
May 2008 be filled with delights!
Cheers!

Hope you had a Merry Christmas! Loved the european robin in the e-card. I remember them when I lived in Greece as a child. Thank you and Happy New Year.
Happy holidays!
Gorgeous card! I hope you had a Merry Christmas and are looking forward to a new year filled with many blessings!
What a lovely surprise of a card! Thank YOU, Brenda, for so many hours of wonderful podcasting. I couldn’t make it through a workout without you!
Happy New Year to you and yours!
