(oops, sorry for the delay in getting the show notes up.. camping with my sister, and a surprisingly busy week got in the way… but today is Canada Day!  How apt!)

O Canada was sung by Sage Tyrtle of Quirky Nomads - thanks Sage!

“We Are More” was written and performed by Shane Koyczan on behalf of the Canadian Tourism Commission, with thanks to Sean of publishers House of Parlance. Visit Myspace to hear more of Shane Koyczan and the Short Story Long and learn more about visiting Canada at keepexploring.ca

Great show Christa, and not because I was mentioned (thank you so much what a pleasant suprise) I didn’ have a pencil with me to write down all the greaat links you talked about…I for one am looking forward to those show notes. Loved the pattern writing dialouge as that is wha I am in the middle of. Loved that spoken piece!

Another knit designer organization is the Association of Knitwear Designers, or AKD for short. I’m not sure if it’s open to Canadian residents also, but you can check it out here: http://www.knitwear-designers.org/

Hey Christa thanks for the shout out. I’m really wishing I had bought that giant humming bird feeder… I made a link to you on my blog and I’m looking forward to your shownotes so I can follow some of the links you mentioned on your podcast.
