Yknit,
The Podcast Volume 1, Episode 1
Introduction:
Greetings Fellow Knitters and Fiber Enthusiasts. Stephen (hizknits) and I (WonderMike) have been talking about this podcast ever since we got re-acquainted at a Cat Bordhi book signing at Purlescence Yarns last summer. We had a bit of difficulty synching up our crazy social butterfly schedules (yeah, right!) but we've made the tough decisions about priorities and personal growth. Naturally, we live and dream in yarn and needles, ergo we believe everyone should. Let us tell you all about it.
Story of Yknit Genesis:
The story of two boys who were re-introduced through the wonder of knitting and the magic of the interwebs.
Interview with Debbie Stoller:
Debbie Stoller has written a new book, Son of Stitch 'N Bitch, filled with patterns for guys. We were fortunate enough to get an interview with Debbie before her book signing at Moe's in Berkeley, California.
You can read more about Debbie and her books at her website (which doesn't mention Son of S&B just yet). Or check out her day job at BUST magazine.
Contest:
We've got 2 signed copies of Son of Stitch 'N Bitch by Debbie Stoller especially dedicated to Yknit listeners. Send us the name and source of your favorite male pattern of all time and why it works for you. We’ll select a winner at random from our mailbag.
Feedback:
Have some ideas for future shows? We’d love to hear what you think. Thanks so much for listening and keep on knitting.
Heart-felt Thanks To:
Yknit? It’s genetic.
Bonus link: Here's the Cycling Aran by designer/spinner/dyer/inspiration Adrian/Hello Yarn (did Stephen mispronounce your last name?), as worn by her hunky husband Mr. Hello Yarn.
