In this episode I talk about how to make the most of the yarn you have when knitting a sweater.
There is a new blog you might be interested in, called Knitting Scholar, a review site for knitting books, and possibly spinning books and some magazines. It looks really good. It’s at http://knittingscholar.com/ Go give it a look.
I promised Donna a link to Beyond Stitch and Bitch
This episode is all about ways to join a new ball of yarn, an issue faced by lace knitters everywhere.
I wanted to call out to the Double Knit podcast. These ladies put on an excellent bi-weekly show. Knitterscarlet’s etsy store is here.
My Knit Spirit parody for Stories of the Third Wave is up here. I also took part in Love Lines.
Hikari took sick and we’re praying for a good recovery. It looks hopeful.
I have a new Local Yarn Shop.
I discuss the whole Jesus/Messiah issue and have the realization that the Tenach never told us to worship the Messiah.
I review a book called A I.Q. (Acheivement IQ) Moments by Stanley Bronstein.
My Ravelympics socks are done.
My project for Ravelympics, Sock Put event is going well, but Secret of the Stole III starts today. Can I do both? Maybe.

Find knitting and spinning videos and a chance to win a spindle and roving on my blog.

I talk about knitting as a form of meditation. I answer a bit of listener mail. I talk about closing my Etsy store and I put out another call to Prayer Team Candy.
This week I give you an update on my various projects. I promised a short video on mirrored increases, and it’s already up. I also talk about how to count rows and my disagreement with how it is normally done.
Finally, I mention Jane’s rather excellent blog post about the Messiah and how that relates to what she calls the phases of being a Christian.
This is a weird episode. I look at a few pointers and signs and try to divine how soon the messiah will come. I think it’s soon, but so has everyone who has tried to predict this since the time of Issiah.
On this show I talk about the non-knitting skills a knitter needs. I also discuss the differences in the Jewish and Christian understanding of the coming (or second coming) of the messiah.
I talk about how knitters seem naturally able to dip into the ancient past.
