Comment on Mindful Knitting on CAST ON podcast by Erin

I heard your interview on Cast On and really found it interesting. I’ve been trying to be more “in the moment” when I knit, which is difficult as I have three children running around me always. But I’ve found that knitting, in and of itself, is like a meditation, which helps me calm down from the general chaos of my life. Anyhow, way to be interviewed on Cast On, and thanks for the great blog.

Comment on About Tara by Mary

Tara, is there an error in the double crossing diamonds aran pullover pattern in “Men in Knits”? I’ve checked the Interweave site and they don’t seem to post one. But I’m puzzled by some of the cable symbols in the legend on page 41:

The first cable symbol instruction in the legend looks identical to the third – are they supposed to be the same? moreover, the instruction is “sl 2 to cn, hold in front, k2, p1 from cn” – what happens to the second stitch on the cn?

Also, the instructions for the second and fourth symbols seem identical – are they?

I’d really appreciate your getting back to me. The pattern is beautiful and i’m looking forward to getting past the 8th row!! Thank you.

Hi there….I am new to your website…but
I have to say that I find the concept fascinating. I do not knit although I do crochet… A LOT!!! I go to yoga class three times a week and I am trying to incorporate crochet, (or any stitching) and yoga together.
I think what you do is wonderful!
(By the way…I am about 15 mins from Karme Choling and Milarepa in Barnet VT.)

Thanks again…

I recently have stumbled upon mindfulness. I saw a two sentence blurb in a trashy magazine, as part of my stress relief program I was directed to some authors AND then listening to my favourite podcast I found you. I have just been trying to figure out how to incorporate this meditation into my life. Mindful knitting looks like it may just fit perfectly.
Thankyou.
