  • This week, we dive into April’s blanket yarn stash to cast on Jethro Cardigans- the perfect portable, stash-busting, granny square project. We also catch up after not seeing each other for a month, chat about machine knitting, recent travels, sewing and knitting works-in-progress, a bird’s nest, a book we read, and the Great British Sewing Bee. Cozy up and settle in, because this is a long one!

    I'm so happy to find this podcast, all the fiber arts content is so consumerist. :( And there are SO! MANY! ADS! Your videos feel like hanging out with my real life fiber friends, with similar values to boot. :) Cheers from Detroit!

    If I do get to a yarn store when traveling I like to buy notions, so that I remember that trip long term. I bought sock blockers in Cannon Beach, Addi sock needles in Issaquah, etc. And one of my musts when moving (often) is that we are within walking distance of an amazing public library (absolutely one of my third places).

      I love the library as well! And also the idea of buying notions as a souvie! Perfect!

    I do turkish cast on too, I discovered years ago that my favorite sock knitting experience is two at a time, toe up, heel flap and gusset, size 0 needles. I knit until about 2 inches peeks out of my Blundstones, I have probably 70 scrappy pairs since determining my love for this method.

      oh, and I cast on 14 on each needle and increase to 32 (64)

    New subscriber! Loved listening to you chat this morning. Baked goods and souvenir yarn get me every time. I am usually a cuff-down sock knitter, but I would like to make some toe-up to use up the maximum amount of yarn. I will give the Turkish cast-on a try very soon!

      Agreed! I noticed that on the video too that we are a bit far. It was an attempt to make the table visible . . . I think we will make a change for next time to get a bit closer. Thanks for the feedback!
