ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 010, Brooke Nico
Our tenth episode features knit designer, yarn shop owner and knit technique teacher, Brooke Nico. We discuss Brooke’s entry into the knit design world (she was discovered having a soda at Shrafts – kind of…) and our mutual love of history, knitting and our families.
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 009, Biggan Ryd Dups
Our ninth episode features Biggan Ryd Dups, a friend of mine who also happens to be an amazing hand knit designer and creator of an incredible line of colorful yarns that are a dream to knit with!
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 008, Becca Foster
Here’s a lovely conversation with our sole employee, Becca Foster, who works with us a few hours a week (sometimes much more!) and will be a fixture in our booth at our various fiber show appearances.
This is a meandering, wandering, pointless talk – but it’s funny, and diverting, and do you really need anything else than that from a free yarn podcast?
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 007, Lucy Neatby
Our seventh podcast is with the unparalleled and very colorful Lucy Neaby.
I love Lucy. One of the first knitting classes I took was with Lucy at Stitches back in 2001, and I’ve loved her since then! It’s an extraordinary thing that I feel I can call her a friend – but she’s so darned friendly that it’s EASY to love her.
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 006, Dora Ohrenstein
Our sixth podcast is with a wonderful crocheter, voice teacher, singer & designer, Dora Ohrenstein. Dora started the influential website Crochet Insider where you can find information on her patterns, classes, blog and even a video of Dora performing as a soloist with the Philip Glass ensemble!
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 005, Ellen Silva
Our fifth podcast is with amazing friend, designer, food scientist & all around great woman, Ellen SIlva. Along with her sister, Jan, Ellen is 1/2 of the Twinset Designs franchise and co-host of the Twinset Podcast.
Ellen’s been designing for ModeKnit yarn for a while and has created the amazingly beautiful Diana’s Quiver sock and the Foam Flower sock (soon to be available at our booth and on our website)
Ellen and I discuss social justice, working bodies, the joy of skipping and, of course, knitting!
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 004, Kate Atherley
Our fourth podcast is with one of my favorite designers, teachers and tech editors, Kate Atherley.
Kate is SHEER delight, such a wonderful woman to sit down with and have a nice chat and a comfortable knit.
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 003, Robyn Chachula & Alisdair Post Quinn
Our third podcast is a treat featuring beloved crochet designer Robyn Chachula AND inspiring double-knitting designer Alisdair Post Quinn! We didn’t exactly mean to double up, and the moment when Alisdair joins our podcast is one of my favorites in our short period of recording these interviews!
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 002, Kimberly Villareal
Our second podcast features knitter, entrepreneur and Ravelry guide Kimberly Villareal. Kimberly started, as many of us do, as a crocheter who switched it up and added knitting to her bag of tricks.
ModeKnit Yarn Podcast 001, Daniel Beasley
We start our podcasting adventure with an interview with one of our favorite male knitters, Daniel Beasley. Daniel’s a member of our local Twin Cities knitting group, and just a great guy!
