I cried. I’ll admit it, I cried. I’ve recently found podcasting and I’m going through all the old episodes of Cast On and I got this one today.
And it made me cry at work. It was just lovely. Thank you!
Also, I must say how much I also love your music choices. Fantastic!!
Hello
Well done, this site is really great. Just wanted to say hello, keep up the good work!
G’night
This episode is my favorite and illustrates the things I really like about your podcast. I work at a university and have passed along the link to several faculty friends in the hopes they will listen and decide to learn to knit. Good work!
I have only recently discovered your podcast. I received an ipod for my birthday this year and I love listening and knitting or just sitting and listening. You have a wonder sense of humor and self. I love getting to know you and your family. I told myself that I should wait until I got caught up to the recent episodes to comment, but I can’t wait. I don’t want to get caught up because the thought of only having one eposide a week to listen to is just depressing.
I have crocheted and knitted for all my life and I am now 39. Really! My mother and grandmother taught me to crochet, but I taught myself to knit. I think that is why I cling to it. Knitting is all mine. I love it when people see you doing it in public and stare. Only a few courageous soles ask you to tech them. The others are too intimidated to do anything but stare in awe. Thank you for letting me spend a few precious hours in the warm embrace of fellow knitters!
Yes, I’m a Heinlein fan–but why is this here? Are you reading my Facebook page, too?
I’ve been slowly catching up on your podcasts, from the beginning, for the past year or more (I’m a bit beyond this one, but catching up on checking out the website, too). Thank you, thank you, thank you. I would say that I can’t wait to be current–but it makes me feel rich to have so much yet to hear.
Syne’s words about Melpomene really hit a chord. I realized for the first time that my current knitting renaissance, which started in the spring of 2008, was probably in large part due to my grief over the death of my father.
