2nd sleeve and Brenda Dayne

I have finished my 2nd sleeve while listening to Brenda Dayne's podcast "Cast On". If you have never heard it, please check it out, it is filled with information of all kinds and is absolutely charming.. http://www.cast-on.com/ If we had a patron saint of knitting it would be Brenda Dayne. I am going to walk the puppies now and get ready to consult on "destructions" as my husband calls them, (hopefully no reflection on the amount of froggin I do). Happy Knitting

Patron Saints and finishing my sleeve

I have finished my 2nd sleeve, taking a small break before I continue to refer to the "destructions" (as my husband likes to call them, that might reflect on the amount of frogging I do??) While I was finishing the sleeve I was listening to "Cast On" a podcast by Brenda Dayne, If you have not heard her check her out!! http://www.cast-on.com/ it is a wonderful podcast, one can learn all kinds of things, she has a great way of presenting all of her topics and has music, and essays. If knitting had a patron saint I believe it would be Brenda Dayne. I did find a idea I like alot from another blog: Franklin in Chicago picked St. Clair. I like his logic:I want to say a prayer but don’t know who the patron saint of knitters is. I decide on St. Clare of Assisi – she’s the patroness of embroiderers and can always pass along the message – and the Virgin Mary, who is obviously fond of shawls. http://the-panopticon.blogspot.com/2005/08/stitches-midwest-diary-part-one.html So u
