bags of remakery motivation!
I just HAD to pop over and post about The Knitting Goddess’s shop update tonight (7pm, be there!) because it features the most awesome remakery-related wonderfulness!
episode 82 strength and significance / community and traditions
This episode I bring you a wee interview I’ve been waiting for the right time to bring you, all about connections to pattern traditions, family, landscape and place. Also we meet this month’s woolly mucker, Alison Mayne and chat a little with her about wool, patterns and community. There is also a review and a giveaway of Zen Variations from Renee Callahan!
The Remakery : Which shawl first?
The Remakery is essentially a bit of motivation or focus to cast on again one of those designs that we’ve always promised ourselves we’ll make again. I’d be utterly delighted if you wanted to use this as motivation to remake some of your favourites. There are no rules or requirements, you can remake absolutely anything and there isn’t a cast on date or anything…

Sometimes, there is a design that we always mean to make again, but never quite get round to it.
It’s there, it’s on the queue, you often look at it and think about casting on… you probably even have the yarn for it, don’t you?!
episode 81 – “We can make anything!”
Today I’m exploring themes of value and worth looking at knitting education. There’s an interview with Knitting For All’s Kerry Kimber, coffee chat at Maddie Harvey’s Edinburgh knitting class and a review of Croft 29 Hebridean wool!
Croft 29 – Genuine Hebridean Wool from Skye
The sponsors of the next episode of the podcast will be Croft 29, a small family business creating wool from their Hebridean flocks on Skye. I think the story behind their business is really special and wanted to share an interview with them here on the blog. Put the kettle on and join us….
episode 80 – Why don’t you…? Couldn’t you just…? You should…!
Welcome in to this episode; where I think I may just about have gotten over EYF…maybe!. This episode meet our first woolly mucker!
