In this episode with my mom, Cindy, we talk about all things parenting vs. grandparenting, the best parts about being a grandparent versus the hardest parts, and how my mom and dad prioritized having a close-knit family when we were growing up. We discuss how my parents approached transparency around alcohol in our house, why my decision to stop drinking scared her at first, and how she passed down the “that's my sister” dynamic to my sisters and me. She also shares what the transition was like from being very career-driven to being a stay-at-home mom, where her style and fashion sensibility comes from, and how her fashion brain works when she's putting together an outfit. Finally, we talk about my own evolving fashion journey, my wanting to dress a certain way to appease her, and why she feels so grateful for where she is in her life right now.Key Takeaway / Points:On our recent experience wedding dress shopping for my sister, LucyOn my mom being receptive to feedback and changeOn the differences between feeling grandparent love and parental loveOn the best part of being a grandparent and the hardest part about itHow my mom and dad built and prioritized having a close-knit familyOn the strangeness of not having secrets from my mom growing upOn growing up with accessible alcohol and transparency in our houseWhy my decision to stop drinking scared herOn fostering the “that's my sister” mentality in our familyOn the transition from being a career-driven person to a stay-at-home momWhere her style and fashion sensibility comes fromOn my journey with fashion and how it's evolvingOn wanting to dress a certain way to appease my motherOn the gratitude she feels for her current life, her daughters, and our dynamicGet your tickets to our live show on 10/9 @ 7:30 PM HERE!!!!This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Have you ever felt alone even when you are in a crowd of people? Do you desire to be known and seen by a community that shares your values? Our parish communities, which should be the place where we find belonging, are often too large to provide the experience of close-knit spiritual family. But, it's not impossible! Come with me as I explore how forming small groups can be a life-giving experience, fostering deeper connections and intentional faith conversations. Drawing inspiration from stories of people living in Congo and experiences right here in our communities, we uncover the incredible impact of sharing struggles, reading scriptures together, and growing in faith collectively. In this episode: * Discover the practical steps to initiate these gatherings, from reaching out to loved ones to embracing the simplicity of starting with a few passionate individuals. * Learn how fostering a welcoming and hospitable environment, even within your home, can enhance spiritual growth and engagement with the Word of God. * Identify practical ways to start and organize small faith groups in parishes. Resources mentioned in this episode: * Live Lent Together (https://archomaha.org/lent/) * Creighton University's Christian Spirituality (https://www.creighton.edu/academics/programs/christian-spirituality-ma) For more practical advice and experiences from real people sharing their mission with the world, go to https://equip.archomaha.org/podcast/.

When you think about knitting, crocheting or any other fiber arts, you might recall your long-lost pandemic pastime. You might even think of an older relative who presented everyone with warm, homemade scarves each holiday season. Here in Middle Tennessee, the fiber arts community has been here long before the pandemic, and it caters to a much more diverse population than one might expect. Today, we're talking all about yarn. Locally, we have several local yarn shop options, including Haus of Yarn right here in Nashville and The Yarn Patch in Cookeville. There is truly something for all disciplines, skill levels and styles. We'll dive into the truly local yarn options, visit with some alpacas, talk about the differences between fiber arts and more. This episode was produced by Elizabeth Burton. The feature was produced by Elizabeth Burton and Magnolia McKay.

With Gareth Myles and Ted Salmon Join us on Mewe RSS Link: https://techaddicts.libsyn.com/rss iTunes | Google Podcasts | Stitcher | Tunein | Spotify Amazon | Pocket Casts | Castbox | PodHubUK Feedback, Fallout and Contributions Phillip Deackes Hi Gareth. I started my NAS journey some years ago. I use it extensively and most of my services run in Docker. I suggest you look at Nextcloud rather than using the built-in Synology services. Nextcloud is open source and free to use. It provides a cloud file service like Google Drive but also hosts your contacts and calendars which can then be synced through CalDAV and CardDAV to ask your other devices like phone, tablet, computers etc.. If you set up OnlyOffice you can edit and create MS compatible documents through a web browser, again on any device. There are many apps you can install from with Nextcloud too.. https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-nextcloud-on-your-synology-nas/ Marius has lots of tutorials for installing all manner of things on a Synology NAS. If you need any more help or advice please get in touch! Ian Barton on BackupPC: Open Source Backup to disk This is very useful for backing up your data to other computers/servers locally. It can also backup to servers that are accessible remotely. I backup my important data from my main computer to a couple of local servers. You can configure it to keep incremental backups, so you can roll back to an earlier version of documents/spreadsheets/etc. It's compatible with most operating systems. Since the system is so flexible it does take some time to configure and requires tinkering with the Apache web server setup. Since my complaint of referencing “the phone show”, I feel that every show there is a mention of or comment when phones are discussed. Just to make me feel more apologetic could you make reference to “Mr Wilmot”, (the old top gear), that way I will know when you're ridiculing me even further! Keep up the good work, love all the shows / podcasts but this is my favourite one by far! Regards Paul Hardline on the hardware The Price of a Pixel Fold on Contract - The BEST deals!

In this episode of See You at Work, we sit down with Stella Garber, an entrepreneur, angel investor, public speaker and advisor to early-stage tech companies and venture funds. Previously, Stella led the marketing team at project management tool Trello for over seven years, building out the company's strategy and leading them through a $425 million acquisition by Atlassian. As someone who literally wrote the book on effective strategies for managing remote teams, Stella has plenty of wisdom to share for leaders who are looking to support and uplift their remote, distributed and asynchronous colleagues. She explains why she's always been a big advocate for the remote and distributed work lifestyle, and how teams can stay bonded and tight-knit—despite physical separation. Stella also shares her perspective on asynchronous communication, including why she believes it's going to be the next major trend in the workforce.

In episode 68 of the Close Knit podcast, I spoke to Nathan Ford. Nathan is an improvisational quilter, soft historian, and overall tender maker currently working in Kansas City, MO. Ford's practice currently revolves around the intersections of queer history and his family history of labor in the Rust Belt. Ford creates quilts that incorporate traditional quilt blocks with unconventional materials to communicate issues of status, sexual desire, and personal identity. He has participated in group shows both in Kansas City and Central Ohio including 3 at the KCAI Gallery, and ImageOHIO. Ford's work was featured in Attention Grabbing, published by The Columbus Dispatch.Sadly, episode 68 had a technical malfunction that resulted in most of the episode not saving (cue tears). I salvaged what I could, namely the last 10ish min of our conversation, and I hope you enjoy this small bit of my conversation with Nathan - it was truly such a treat to speak with him.

hi friends! I wanted to give a little update about the close knit podcast and where we're headed. I recently moved over to substack, which is where I'll be writing a monthly newsletter and exploring a slightly more experimental practice that will include soundbites and other audio that I'm feeling excited about.At first, I thought I would post that more experimental work in the same place at the Close Knit Podcast, but it seemed right for this experiment to have its own little home that's separate from the Close Knit Podcast.If you're interested in reading more of my work & hearing from me more often, you can subscribe over on substack. I've officially turned off my patreon, so I won't be using that platform anymore to collect pledges or post work - it'll all just be on substack. It's still just $5/month (or $50/year) to become a paid subscriber.As you may already know, Close Knit is not my main gig, nor is it a “side hustle”. it is, simply, a hopeful gesture of connection delivered to you via the internet. Paying subscribers help me give close knit (both this podcast and the more experimental practice on substack) a consistent home on the internet. my monetary goal is simple and humble: to offset the costs of sharing online.I'd be absolutely delighted to have you join me over on substack. I've felt really motivated and excited to share more writing and audio, and I'm hopeful to be in conversation with you all. If you're just looking for the usual interview-style Close Knit Podcast, you're in the right place. Stay tuned for more episodes right here. My intention is to keep up the interviewing practice when I can manage it and to deliver you a simple, slightly less polished version of the Close Knit Podcast. These episodes won't have a set cadence, but I'll always announce new episodes via the newsletter, so no worries, you'll never miss a new episode. Thanks so much to everyone who has been supporting me through the many transitions and shapes that Close Knit has taken - whether financially or through your friendship, it has all meant the absolute world to me. Connecting with readers and listeners is the true lifeblood of this work, I wouldn't keep making it if it weren't for you. I think that's all for now. Hope to see you on substack, either as a free of paid subscriber, and catch ya in your headphones when the next Close Knit Podcast episode airs. xxyour ani

这一期来讲讲由荻上直子执导、生田斗真领衔主演的暖意融融的彩虹电影《人生密密缝》。这部电影对于女孩小友与作为trans女性的凛子之间的友谊有着动人的刻画，但片中不同的母亲角色更让我着迷。她们是关怀孩子的人，为孩子“密密缝”，但她们也在母职的路上屡屡失败，给不了孩子他们想要的身体，或是不理解孩子爱之所向，抑或无法成为一个为社会期待的“完美母亲”。《人生密密缝》温情而深刻，推荐给大家。Hiya!In this episode, I talk through a Japanese movie ‘彼らが本気で編むときは、' （‘When They Knit in Earnest' or ‘Close-Knit'）. Young girl Tomo comes to live with her uncle for the period of time when her mother leaves her alone to chase a hopeless love affair. Tomo embarks on a journey of coming to understand and make friends with her uncle's girlfriend Rinko, a trans woman. This is a heart-warming story about a girl learning to accept and stand up for the LGBTQ+ community, but also one that investigates the social prejudice towards trans woman and gay man. However, my point of interest lies beyond its obvious topic. I was captured by how this movie approaches care, create and motherhood. The movie showcases a myriad of ‘failed' mothers: some have an estranged relationship with their kids, some failed to give their kids the gender they belong to, some simply don't understand or support their kids. One of them is Tomo's mother Mimura, the run-away single parent. Mimura's story propels me to think about 'the absent experience of motherhood' in physical and biological contexts and how that (dis)enables the idea of a good mother. Highly recommend this movie xMusic物語のはじまりby 江藤直子 海by 江藤直子

The Circle of Kindness Foundation, which helps children with rare illnesses, was created in early 2021 at Vladimir Putin's own initiative. It's funded by a two percent tax on the income of Russia's wealthiest citizens. The organization pays for expensive medications -- but competition is rare at the auctions where these drugs are procured. One of the foundation's main suppliers is a company called Irvin -- and it's connected to both the foundation's head and to the family of Alexey Dyumin, Putin's former bodyguard. In addition, the husband of the woman responsible for purchasing medications on behalf of the Circle of Kindness works for the owner of the company that supplies the foundation with Zolgensma -- the most expensive drug in the world. Meduza correspondents Svetlana Reiter and Maria Zholobova break down how the Circle of Kindness Foundation's procurement system works and why its board of trustees (which includes well-known actors and philanthropists) believes it lacks transparency.

“Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body - whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free - and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so, the body is not made up of one part but of many.” 1 Corinthians 12:12-14. Each and every one of us has an important role to play in the Family of God.

Dr. Larry Taylor is our guest on RAISING SINNERS today. Dr. Taylor is the author of “Running with the Horses,” and we knew we wanted him as our guest early on because of his years of putting into practice what it takes to build, not only a kingdom family, but a close-knit family. Don't we all want our kids to come back home to visit once they've left the nest? Yes! Dr. Taylor discusses the daily, weekly, and yearly routines he put into place within his own family that helped develop their spiritual foundation, character, and future. We really dive in to two areas that help ensure our families are close knit – 1) communication and 2) family rituals. Do you want a close-knit family? Do you want to put solid rituals into place within your family that help to pass the baton of faith on to your children and grandchildren? We can live it and preach it, but what matters most is the actual relationship we have with our children. Thanks for joining us for this episode of Raising Sinners!

Kelly and I had a long discussion about the sweater while poor Mark had to wear it and listen to us try and figure out what I need to do. Still knitting on the tea cozy pattern, Nanny Meier's Tea Cozy by Amelia Carlsen. I am using Cascade 220 Heather in Red Wine Heather (9489) and green Irelande (2429). Garter Squish Blanket by Stephen West. Wanted to use “spirit yarn” to make a blanket for my brother that he had seen at Close Knit in Portland called Noromania Blanket. Turns out we remembered the blanket very differently and he was correct. So, that will be another blanket project. Decided to go ahead and dye the yarn for my second Garter Squish. Kelly helped by dye all the yarn. The main color is a gradient of a terra cotta. The contrasting yarns we dyed with short color repeats and long color repeats. While Kelly was in meetings I drove into Aberdeen, Washington and visited Weird Sisters Wool Emporium owned by Megan Blackburn and Chelsea Barr who dye all the yarn. Megan used to own Little Fish Stitches. I made a pair of sock and the Walk Along tee with her yarm. Bought a skein of sock weight yarn for Kelly from the “Bob Ross: Happy Little Mistakes” bin. Their shop is a little hard to find on the second floor of a business office but do persevere or check out their website. Also visited Harbor Bead and Craft in Hoquiam, Washington. A nice craft store also a bit hard to find but worth the effort. Kelly's Projects Dark Green Forest by Christina Korber-Reith. I am using a terra cotta yarn that is a dark red overdyed over the light brown color of the CVM yarn. Working on the first sleeve but I'm almost done. Spinning wheel came with me on the trip and I've gotten a little spinning done on my Oxford singles. I think they will become a two ply. Patreon Pattern Giveaway!

Their stories will undoubtedly encourage you on your homeopathy journey.
In episode 66 of the Close Knit podcast, I spoke to Masego Morgan and Stella Hertantyo of cncs_ (pronounced “conscious”). I so cherished this conversation with these two - it felt like a wonderful space to sit in our uncertainty and be candid about no knowing what is next. Masego is a sustainable fashion advocate, residing in the suburbs of Cape Town. Currently doing her postgrad in Sustainable Development, while working as a creative strategist for a local South African brand called Good Good Good - this may change by the time the episode is out since she's finding it difficult to balance the two and have a personal life. She's terrible at following instructions, whether it's a recipe or a design pattern.At the end of last year, Stella completed her B.A. in Multimedia Journalism and she is currently doing her Postgraduate Diploma at the Sustainability Institute in Cape Town. Stella is a slow living enthusiast and a lover of low-impact fashion. She is passionate about encouraging an approach to sustainability that is inclusive, accessible, fun and locally-centred, as we try to figure out how to create a regenerative future. When I'm not in front of my laptop doing uni work, you'll probably find me reading, writing, illustrating or baking/cooking. A dip in the ocean, or a walk in the mountains, are the two things that bring me the most peace. At the beginning of 2020, Masego and Stella created an online platform together, called cnscs_. They created cnscs_, because they wanted to create an online community where knowledge, ideas, and resources around sustainable living (especially in a local context) could be shared. They see cnscs_ as a space to introduce people to sustainable living and apply it to their lives in a way that's sustainable to them. Their focus is on telling and sharing African stories and decolonising the current sustainability narrative. They share interviews with lots of change-making people, resource-based articles that inspire positive action and spark thought in our sustainability school section, wish lists, moodboards, musings, and tips and tricks that we have learnt along the way. They talk loads about personal style and slow fashion, but also sprinkle in content that discusses other aspects of sustainability.
In this episode I chat with Ani Lee - fiber artist, singer, mover/shaker, and host of the podcast Close Knit. Learn more about Ani's passion for sustainable fashion on her site: https://www.closeknit.com.au/
In episode 65 of the Close Knit podcast, I speak to Damien Ajavon. Based in Oslo, Damien Ajavon is a queer textile artist, born in France, of Senegalese and Togolese origin. Their work explores the different methods in which textiles fibres can be manipulated by hand: knotted, braided, tangled, and woven. The interaction between visual and tactile experiences has always played an important role in their process; they use their African and western influences as a vehicle for their textile storytelling and as visual markers of their creative approaches. It is through textile languages rather than oral ones that Ajavon has been unearthing and weaving connections with their ancestry.They have accumulated substantial experience internationally that honed their expertise and technique. They learnt to weave hemp, dye cashmere in Italy and work with feathers (Bevagna, Sant'Anatolia DI Narco, Florence), felting hats and making accessories in Quebec, pattern making and knitwear in New York City.Ajavon grounds their practice by positioning themselves in the world through their heritage. In doing so, they put into practice their mother's teachings of African cultures and conjures artistic gestures in honor of intergenerational learning.This conversation felt just so special to me - at a time when I have felt particularly unmoored (after getting off of instagram), it was so heartening to connect with Damien over our mutual love of fiber. Their work is so beautiful - anchored in physical movement and a wonderful sense of curiosity about how fibers can be manipulated and transformed. I loved hearing their perspective on textile construction, design, and working with human-aided machinery.We discuss the ways the “craft” is often separated from “fine arts”, and how imperative we feel it is that that viewpoint is shifted. Damien blows my absolute mind when they tell me about their friend's work with nuno felting, and we share our perspectives of reverence for every craftsperson out there. We wrap up by discussing Damien's next steps - a residency in Berlin and a master's program in Oslo, and we realize our mutual love of socks. We delight in discussing the opportunity Damien has to explore their textile language through their studies - to move beyond 2D technical construction into a realm of expressing their perspective and history through their work. Finally, we talk about the protection inherent in fiber work - both from the elements, and just the harshness of the world - we revel in the protection that textiles bring to those who make and wear them.
In episode 64 of the Close Knit podcast, I speak to Sharifah Emalia Al-Gadrie. Sharifah Emalia Al-Gadrie is a multidisciplinary artist & community development worker based in nipaluna/Hobart, lutruwita/Tasmania. Her creative practice is responsive and explores belonging and cultural heritage in contemporary Australia, drawing on intersectional feminist theory and lived experience as an Asian-Australian woman. Emalia's work is both research and process driven and is based in mediums including painting, textiles, installation and photography. She currently works for Tasmanian not-for-profit organisation, A Fairer World, managing the Hobart Human Library and Women's Business projects.I have so deeply admired Emalia since I met her in 2017 when I lived in Hobart. She has been persistently living her values, doing incredible work in her community, and maintaining a thoughtful and critical artistic practice. I was particularly excited to catch up with her and hear about her life these past few years, she has been absolutely prolific in her artistic practice. We share stories about life over the last year and compare the ways our community spaces have been altered as a result of pandemic life. She tells me about the shows she's been part of and in particular, we discuss a project that is especially near to her heart, Women's Business. Women's Business is a show that explores the culture, religion, and personal journies of Tasmanian women from migrant and refugee backgrounds through the fashion of their families.Much of Emalia's textile work is soft and inviting on the surface, but deals with heavy subject matter - we discuss the ways in which Emalia's use of textiles is both a response to her personal affection for textiles and their tactility and an act of political meaning. Some of her work is deeply bodily and contains references to or literal body hair, an exploration of her experience growing up on the coast of Australia as an Asian-Australian woman, being bullied for her body hair. We wrap up by discussing Emalia's piece Sticks and Stones (pictured above) which took a critical lens to the Islamaphobia that is rampant in Australian media. This piece exemplifies Emalia's purpose with her art practice, drawing the viewer in with this soft pastel palette, and asking them to consider something they might shy away from. She hopes to engage her audience in these difficult conversations, even if just for a moment, or even just to have them acknowledge that the thing is real and happening.

You’re listening to Episode 50 of the Close Knit Podcast and this week I spoke to Mandy Kordal of Kordal Studio.Mandy is someone I have admired for so long - every singe collection she’s designed has just made me swoon, and it was such a treat to bring her onto the podcast this month.She walks me all the way back to her earliest memory of working with textiles - influenced by her grandmother and her mother, who are both talented designers and sewists.As has been my line of inquiry lately - this year, actually, I wanted to understand how Mandy went from altering and painting on her clothes as a kid to running a knitwear and now woven-ware clothing line. How her interest was piqued by a neighbor, leading her to study fashion design and taking a class in machine knitting - which informs her garment design and making presently.We discuss the subtleties of machine knitwear design, fiber sourcing, and how being a values-driven brand, as a concept, is an evolution.Mandy talks me through their partnerships with weavers and mills in Peru and Guatemala and how these relationships have evolved over the course of Kordal’s existence.Listen on for our whole chat! Thanks for tuning in!I wanted to pause for a moment to acknowledge that this is the 50th episode of the Close Knit Podcast.50 whole episodes!

In episode 49 of the Close Knit podcast, I spoke to Charlotte X C Sullivan, one of two folks who run May West: a textile innovation collaboration between Charlotte and Alayna Rasile-Digrindakis. Charlotte walks me through how May West formed, through connection and feeling, and how this has continued to inform their work with milkweed. We discuss the way that clothing, and fashion, can serve as armor, a way to cloak and protect yourself through circumstances in life. She explains to me how her collaboration with Alayna began, and how their expression of feeling has impacted their process, and how they intend to imbue their clothing with purpose and meaning through each stage of production.Charlotte tells me about the evolution of May west’s design studio, from drop spinning of milkweed fibers, to its current iteration: jackets using milkweed batting as insulation, how this iterative process has unfolded over time, through prototypes and experiments. We discuss the importance of local manufacturing and how they’ve managed this production process thus far.What I think is most special about this chat is the way that it unfolded from a place of curiosity- something I am realizing is such an important part of my own practice and this podcast, and it was interesting to see that mirrored in the way that Charlotte tends to work. I knew very little of milkweed & its practical uses, and I found it incredibly intriguing to hear Charlotte and Alayna’s collaborative approach towards May West. I feel I need to disclose that the circumstances of this podcast making were a first for me- I recorded it in a friend’s house in Hobart & had little control over the external auditory circumstances, so please bear with me if the audio quality is a little less than you’ve come to expect.This was an experiment in dedication for me- seeing if it’s possible to continue creating content as usual, without my safe set up.

I wanted to take a minute to revisit the close knit podcast mission. The close knit podcast aims to hold space for conversation to be had about the ways we use fiber to process life and world events.What I meant when I wrote that was that this podcast is the vessel, and the guest brings the story - the connecting thread between all guests is fiber in some form. Intentionally broad, this enabled me to speak to all kinds of people about all manner of things.In practical terms, it has looked like a majority white, majority women-identified line up. When it was entirely this - early on, I paused, readjusted, and tried to publicly challenge myself to do better. I shared this process publicly because I believe in transparency of process, whenever possible. Owning mistakes, instead of letting them own you, and moving forward. Over the course of the life of this podcast, I hope to speak to as many people from as many backgrounds as possible - whose stories may be connected only insofar as their interest in fiber, and I hope that each listener finds themselves represented here, in some way. Whether that is a person whose ethnic identity resembles your own, or gender identity, or approach to making, or ethics on living their lives. I hope that you find someone who feels like ‘home’ to you here. I know that I can always do better - and though I spend more time than your average person researching people in the fiber community to interview, those interviews don’t always pull through, or they don’t happen in the way I imagine they will. I am constantly learning the process of letting go of the outcome as a podcast maker - I can only ask the guest in, and hold as safe a space as I am able - I cannot falsely create stories or force a conversation in a direction it’s not able to go. More so, I cannot expect a certain type of conversation to happen simply because of a common narrative around assumptions I’m no doubt making about my guest.I want to keep at this. I want to make this podcast for a long ass time - maybe even for the entire time I’m on this planet. so it’s gonna take time, and the guest list will evolve. and I hope, as the knitting and wider fiber community begins to take more seriously issues of representation - we may more easily be able to find a diverse body of people to speak to and hear from.This being said, know that I am always scouring the internet for new stories, following along on instagram and trying to track down the voices of people who don’t look like me. Sometimes, I do okay it, and other times, not as much. I don’t expect anyone to do that work for me, but I am open to suggestions - I am open to feedback. If there’s someone that you love or YOU are that someone - who is doing interesting work with fiber, who maybe doesn’t have the type of stage that makes it easy to find them, by all means - please let me know.I’m here to listen, to keep working on creating a really safe space for people to share.I’m processing - in my own private life, sometimes quietly - through hours of conversation with people that I know, and hours of knitting. I’m working on a sock right now - which of course, what else would I be working on, and I don’t know if I’m doing it ‘right’ this whole thing, but I know that I’m giving it what I’ve got. & at the very least, I feel hopeful that we have this vessel - our making, our place for quiet internal reflection, and our connection of fiber. Our place to find each other - our thing to connect over. I’m glad that there is this soft vessel to perhaps help us find each other.

8 Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble. 9 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. 10 For, “Whoever would love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from deceitful speech. 11He must turn from evil and do good; he must seek peace and pursue it. 12For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

The Close Knit podcast aims to hold space for conversation to be had about working with fibre in its many forms, within our selves and our communities. In Episode 32 of the Close Knit Podcast, I spoke to Kinknit. Kinknit combines two things that you might not have thought about combining before (or maybe you have - like many folks who’ve gotten in touch with them on the internet) - kink and fibre. Which, when you think about it, kind of makes sense, doesn’t it? interest in fibres and interest in ropes, interest in the tying of intricate knots. Afterall, knitting is just a series of knots, isn't it? We talk about how kinking uses kink, yoga and an active fibre practice in their management of their chronic illnesses, and how even when their body wouldn’t cooperate, they were still so fundamentally a spinner and a knitter. Rope and photo by @dwlphoto What i love so much about this chat is how we’re talking about something that is kind of taboo and not often talked about, especially in the fibre arts community - but it makes so much sense when kinking explains the parallels between these communities that they’ve noticed. image by @magnessvondoom My intention with the podcast is present people as their whole selves - and I love that we got to talk about all the ways that Kinknint shows up to the world as themselves - unashamed and proud of all the elements that make them uniquely them. photo by @sliversilverphotography / sliversilverphoto.com People/ Things we mentioned in the podcast:Fetlife - ravelry for kinkInto the Whirled - rad indie dyerIzznit - we love her badass knitting tattoos friend and badass Pajarolibrexx master weaver Megan Shimek Find Kinknit: instagramWant more?

In Episode 30, I spoke to Hanna Lisa Haferkamp and Verena Cohrs. Hanna Lisa and Verena are feminist knitters living in Berlin who work together on a project called Making Stories and separately on their own solo projects, as well. Hanna Lisa and Verena came up with the concept for Making Stories, an independent knitwear design publishing company, after getting together for knitting hang outs and running a yarn crawl with local knitters in Berlin. We talk about how they navigate the dynamics of working on a project together, in addition to their separate companies and what this looks like on a day to day basis - the necessity of having a similar long term and bigger vision for the project, but the beauty of having differing opinions on the smaller details. Hanna Lisa explains the turning point for her in her business in 2016 to make a decision to very openly identify as feminist and keep her core values of supporting womxn owned businesses in the running of her own business. Both tell us about their routines around self care and how they work together to keep each other accountable. A huge thank you to this week’s episode sponsor: Made In Tasmania. Made in Tasmania is a small, family owned and mostly family run business operating out of Tasmania. They work with Australia’s oldest wool mill, Waverley Woolen Mills, to weave colorful bed throws from Tasmanian sourced and processed superfine merino. I personally got a chance earlier this year to tour the factory and see how it’s all made - and it’s bloody cool. The wool comes in greasy bales and gets processed up at Waverely right down to the dying and weaving. Made In Tasmania also works with Hobart- based not for profit Tastex, who employ folks with barriers to employment, where they add finishing touches to machine knit scarves made from merino yarn. You can find Made In Tasmania at their bricks and mortar in Salamanca Place, Hobart and online at madeintasmania.com and on instagram as @madeintasmania. They ship worldwide!
