203 episodios

Cast On began on Monday, 31 October, 2005, founded on nothing more than the desire to talk about knitting to people who get it. All the other stuff, about how memories, thoughts, hopes and dreams are knit into the fabric we create, and so become part of the fabric of our lives; about how life and knitting intertwine, and how sometimes you simply cannot tell where one part leaves off the other begins; about how the only thing wrong with the world today is that there is not enough knitting in it, all that came later, over time. Since 2005 the podcast has evolved to focus on finding inspiration in the ordinary, using it to kick start the process of making stuff, and finding ways to carve out the creative time and space that allows you to work your ass off on the projects that matter most to you. Like knitting a sweater. Or saving the world.

A welcome voice of an old friend in my ear

I have been a listener since this podcast began. So many circumstances of my life have changed over the long years, but I am always a knitter. I have been so happy that Brenda relaunched the podcast, and I find it as engaging and inspiring as I did in the beginning.

Cozy and Wonderful

Yay, I finally have a knitting friend! I love knitting so much, and having a queer-friendly knitting podcast is JUST what I am missing in my life. Thank you for sharing your wonderful, quirky authenticity. I’ve really started knitting again in earnest thanks to you! ❤️
