x=Did you know the major of St. Andrews is a Dog? And not just any dog! Every year the market at St. Andrews hosts a contest and fundraiser for the local animal rescues. Leading up to the event local pet parents can enter their dog in the contest to become the salty dog major of St. Andrews for a one-year term. Salty locals can cast their votes for the dog they'd like to see as the major for $1 per vote and the funds go to support the rescues. This year the winner is Socks, a senior chihuahua, and rat terrier mix. His mama Crystal ford is an animal rescue advocate and volunteer, and she is also is involved with the Historic St. Andrews Water Front Partnership community involvement community. This Sunday is Sock's 14th birthday at The Taproom from 12-4. Not only is this a celebration for our major but, it is also a fundraising event for several local animal rescues. This is a special bonus episode I hope you'll also tune in on Thursday for episode 42 which features Charles Segrest of The Krewe of St. Andrews to talk about A Taste of St. Andrews which is a fall seafood festival that will be happening this Friday and Saturday at St. Andrews Marina.Like our content?

Do you have a sweater chest? A dressmaker's mannequin for your shawls, or a special hanger? A box of socks? I tend to roll my handknit socks and put them in a drawer. I only have drawer space for my shawls but worry that by folding them I’ll have fold marks when it’s time to wear them.

Thanks for understanding!*There is a Chatter Thread on Ravelry so we can encourage each other along the way.Ask the Geeky Girls - Jorunn (FjordLord) from Norway asks:Hi Geeky Girls! I was wondering if you have any thoughts on different knitting styles and how you wrap the yarn around when you knit. The way I learnt to knit as a child, is what I understand is called continental style knitting. This is where you hold the yarn with your left hand, over your left index finger, and use your right needle to “hook” the yarn and then pull it through. The only time I knit while wrapping yarn around using my right hand is when I do colour work. On the occasions where we can see you actually knitting on your podcast, it seems that you might be knitting the wrap-around-style, and that has always seemed to me to be a (sorry) slower way of doing it. Have you tried other styles of knitting, or have you any other thoughts on this? What do you think are the pros and cons of knitting this way or the other?Originally asked/answered in 2015Misc. - ~Threads Entwined - 15% off until the end of May, 2020, with the coupon code geeky15~Support the Podcast, Become A Patron~Want another way to help support our podcast?
