Stitches United Adventures with Franklin Habit

Stitches United Adventures with Franklin Habit

Stitches United Adventures with Franklin Habit was the topic for this Tuesday on the Yarn Thing podcast with Marly Bird.

Stitches United is just a couple of weeks away (April 27-30), hurry to make sure you sign up for classes, and the presentation ‘Follow Your Bunny’ with Franklin Habit.

Franklin Habit can be followed through his website: www.FranklinHabit.com, but he’s most active in Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. He writes monthly illustrated column for the Lion Brand notebook, twice monthly articles about creativity Fridays with Franklin with Makers Mercantile/Skacel Yarns, AND monthly book reviews for Mason Dixon.

Here is the links to his previous visits to Yarn Thing with Marly Bird in 2013, and 2015, last summer when he shared his new adult coloring book for knitters ‘I Dream of Yarn‘, which is now in its second printing.

    Love the show and listening to your discussion with Franklin! I had been sitting here going through knitted patterns for a bowtie for my grandson! My son loves them and now my grand wants one also!

    Loved the show! I am sure those making the bow tie will have lots of fun with Franklin. I love how you both encourage us that we can do what we don’t think we can. <3 Thank you both! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Loved the show today. I have always loved Franklin’s humor and drawings. My grandson would look so cute in a bowtie. I need to whip one up before Easter! Someday I hope to get to a Stitches Event.

    Sad I missed the FB live with Franklin, was getting my taxes done. I do think of Franklin when I think of bow ties and when I think of bow ties I think of Franklin. Someday would love to attend one of his knitting classes…took both of his Craftsy classes already. Would really enjoy a pattern from Franklin AND book of Laura’s โค๏ธ

    The bowtie class sounds really neat! My son would really appreciate it- he’s huge into bow ties. Got him a new one today, in fact. Thanks for the interview!

    I have helped a couple of friends when they started sewing. A bow tie would be an excellent starter project and a fun changeup from the usual pillowcase. Great idea!

    I loved the podcast today! I had the pleasure of seeing Franklin’s Five Women, Five Shawls talk at Stitches Midwest 2 years ago and taking his Photographing your fibers class last year. I considered taking his Bowtie class, but decided to take the steeking class.

    I have never seen my husband in a bow tie but would like to. And I have a new grandson and my daughter just sent me a photo of him last wee wearing a little shirt with a bow tie. It melted my heart. I bet Franklin’s class would be so much fun to take.

    Love this interview with Franklin. I was lucky enough to see the “Follow your Bunny” talk at Stitches West. If you have any chance to listen to him or take a class with him, do it! I’m so excited to hear that the Halos-of-Hope-athon we started at Purlescence will be continuing at Wall of Yarn! Now I’m trying to figure out if I can make it out to Illinois for this event. If I possibly can, I’ll probably try to wear a bow tie myself!

    Midwest is calling my name. A day of learning with Franklin sounds divine: hand sewing, humor, and happiness! And a bowtie at the end of the day.
    Marly – another great podcast.

    I’m yet to make peace with hand sewing, so this bow tie class sounds ideal. I will be sure to sign up if it is ever released as an online class as I’m in Australia

    Franklin can rock the bow tie, but his writing is most thoughtful and inspiring.
