Wisdom from Darwin, Jabir, Newton, Kierkegaard, and Chris in the Morning; a Talisman Scarf, and Today’s Sweater.

The new series begins, and with it an Alchemical journey. We chat with writer and textile lexicographer, Elinor Kapp; Jonathon Whitall moves us one step closer to a global knitting language; I learn the merits of working the problem.

From spirals to pie, it almost sounds like a math thing, but it isn’t. Although the answer is 42. Complete shownotes will magically appear in 2009. Thank you for the music, and Happy New Year!

The true purpose of handspun yarn, plus an interview with photographer, Gale Zucker and some words from writer, Joan Tapper. Together they collaborated on one of the best books (in my humble opinion) to be published in 2008. If you’ve ever dreamed about owning a little a spread and caring for a few fibre-bearing beasties, this podcast has the interview for you. Fabulous fibre prizes and Today’s Sweater. It’s time to Cast On.

It’s time for the annual airing of the sweaters, for fixing things, arranging the house, and getting ready for winter projects. Stories from Jasmin Canty and Franklin Habit, plus, Cast On is three years old! Thank you, my knitsibs, for a most excellent ride.
