Franklin Habit

Franklin Habit, the latest on Marly’s All Male Revue!

Franklin and Marly had a spirited discussion on Franklin’s love for the history of knitting, Franklin’s other habit of choice, photography, and how he loves to enter twine the two whenever he can.  They also discussed his latest Craftsy.com class, Heirloom Lace Edgings and gave away a class on the show!

    Wow, I’ve been stalking the show notes update in order to leave this comment. Now it’s open for comments I feel all sheepish about what to say 😉 Big fan of Franklin and found this interview via his twitter update. Enjoyed the interview very much and am off to check out your other interviews 🙂

  2. Pam Haschke says:

    I sheepishly will admit that I didn’t have a chance to listen live. But I love Marly and Franklin, so I listened afterward and loved this podcast. You are two of my favorite peoples. I’m just sorry Dolores was Maypole shopping and didn’t make it.

  3. Mimi Dillman says:

    Hey Marly,

    I feel pretty sheepish when my vocabulary fails me, too 🙂 Thanks for the interview with Franklln, it was great to hear more about his upcoming activities (Caribbean in December sounds divine) and more details of the Craftsy class too. I hope I win!

    Although I’m a bit sheepish saying it out loud here, but I just love Franklin Habit! He’s smart, he’s funny, and he knows a lot about knitting! I can’t wait to take his new Craftsy class!

  5. Karen in Maine says:

    Marly and Franklin, thank you for the podcast. I’ve been a fan for years. Dolores must have felt sheepish when she had to stay home, but I’ll bet she found lots of trouble to get into!

  6. Christine says:

    Franklin doesn’t seem sheepish at all! What a cool interview. I would really like to take his classes!

  7. Paula says:

    This was a great podcast. It is so nice to listen to interviews. I get find out about interesting people. I am so sheepish I could never just go up to someone I don’t know.

  8. Amy aka GreenWoman says:

    I’ve been enjoying your All Male Review. And feeling a bit sheepish about that. Do sheep always feel sheepish?

  9. Maryann says:

    I never thought of knitting lace edgings to learn how to knit lace–great idea! I feel sheepish I never considered knitting them before.

  10. Mary Kay Smith says:

    I was too sheepish to call in live, but I would love to take Franklin’s Crafsty class. I am just getting started in lace but could use some education on charts. Thanks!

  11. mary says:

    Oh my, I ‘m such a fan-girl of Franklin Habit’s…..I actually felt butterflies in my tummy and rather sheepish about commenting.
    I’ve just recently discovered this podcast and enjoy how fresh and informative it is….tho at times I feel sheepish about listening in ‘cuz your having so much fun…and I’m eavesdropping on your conversation.

  12. Dominik says:

    One should never be sheepish about taking new classes and learning new things! And Franklin’s Craftsy class sounds great!

  13. Daphne says:

    Not so sheepish I can’t comment! Love Franklin and hearing his stories of getting started knitting, and about Craftsy, too. Thanks for the podcast.

  14. Catherine T. says:

    I’m sheepish to say I totally missed my opportunity to take a live class with Franklin when I had to back out of Vogue Knitting in in Chicago last year. I’m totally bummed I missed the class with Franklin, but excited that I have a chance for a Craftsy class with him. Love the All-Male Revue, Marly!

  15. Sheila says:

    I feel sheepish to tell you that I am very far behind on listening to your podcast. I’m glad that I decided to listen to the interview with Franklin. He is wonderful.

  16. Suzanne Chalk says:

    I was discussing this blog at my local yarn store named Sheepish. They were excited to hear about a new knitting podcast.

  17. Jennifer says:

    Apparently, I am not so sheepish about taking Craftsy classes as I’ve signed up for several. I’d love to learn from Franklin as well. Thanks for the giveaway.

  18. Angie says:

    I will sheepishly admit that I haven’t yet taken Any Craftsy class. I would love to start with Franklin’s class though 🙂

  19. Karen says:

    I am sheepish about the thought that I should be sleeping…and here I am commenting on a blog;-)

  20. Janeen K says:

    Who do you think is the sheepish person ? One who lacks confidence to try a fun Craftsy Class… Not me I love all the classes I have taken and can’t wait for this new one Yeah Rah !!!!
