This is a Bonus Interview Episode with Nancy Roberts. It was recorded on March 23, 2021 and edited for publication on April 20, 2021.  “I can’t even remember learning to knit. I started spinning and dyeing over 40 years ago. Five years ago I bought a knitting machine as a tool for dyeing. I make yarn with long repeats of color by machine knitting undyed yarn, dyeing the knitted fabric, and re-knitting it. I have written articles in Spin-Off and Knitwords magazines and I teach this technique at my studio in the SF Bay Area and at guilds and conferences around North America.

Another version. Zipper hint from Daisyknits.com “The best way that I have found to put a zipper into a garment is to glue the zipper into place using a good fabric glue. Let it dry completely. Then sew the zipper in place. No pins are needed once the glue is dry and every thing moves through the sewing machine smoothly and at the same time. Do make sure that before you glue the zipper in place you have treated the knitted fabric so that it will not shrink when washed or cleaned.” Rant: cough syrup, 2 ml short Rave: linen sheets VitaMeataVegeMinCook your green beans right away in highly salted water.
