You know how there's always someone who not only goes the extra mile, but looks good while they do it? And does it with a genuine smile, to top it off. That's Christine Hulse, from Hulse Hill Farm. Just outside of Cooperstown on a little slice of heaven, this tireless woman has set up shop (and her farm shop). She excels at all things she puts her mind to: She runs a blissful farm stay B&B and is a hostess extraordinaire; she's a businesswoman and the co-owner of her fiber company Clean Cashmere; she's a member of the Board of Directors for the Cashmere Goat Association, and she's gracious as all heck. And, of course, every animal on the place seems to think she's Dr. Dolittle. Martha Stewart, look out.We've met the hubby and think he's pretty darn nice as well, but he's going to have to step lively to keep up with this one, because she's as fantastic as could be. He probably agrees with us, we think.(And did we mention that she understands the blissful joy of organic cotton sheets, good coffee and real half and half? Zen, defined.)Links:https://hulsehillfarm.com/https://www.cleancashmere.farm/https://cashmeregoatassociation.org/https://americangoatfederation.org/https://www.goatusa.org/Support the show

Hour 1 The Lions upset the Chiefs last night and it was a terrible loss for Kansas City. The main reason they lost is former Giants WR Kadarius Toney. There were some clock management issues for the Chiefs as they went for it on 4th and 25 late with all 3 timeouts and the 2 minute warning. Gio does not like the Lions and he's already sick of the hype around this team. Jerry is here for his first update and has clips of Adam Schein saying how the Chiefs were going to win no problem. Jared Goff and Dan Campbell talked about the big win. Andy Reid is disappointed and Patrick Mahomes said he has not lost faith in Toney after the drops. A college football player had his ear ripped off this past weekend. The Yankees 5-game win streak came to an end against the Tigers. Carlos Rodon said he ‘got his ass whooped'. A protestor glued his feet to the ground at the US Open. In the final segment of the hour, Eddie is not here today because he's at the Sheep & Fiber Festival with his wife, an independent yarn dyer. Hour 2 Gio does not believe the Cowboys should be favored Sunday night at MetLife Stadium. Boomer said the Giants need to keep Micah Parsons in check if they're going to win. The Giants need domination from their defensive line and Daniel Jones needs to be throwing for 300 yards a game. We also talked about Eric Bienemy no longer being in KC and what he can do for the Commanders. Boomer wonders if the Saudis will try to start a league to compete against the NFL. Jerry returns for an update and has all the sound from last night's Lions win over the Chiefs. Kadarius Toney dropped a lot of balls. Patrick Mahomes was embarrassed by the loss.

Hour 3 Gio loves JustinTuck and said it's difficult to not like the Giants now. The pundits seemed to like the Lions going into this season and they beat the Chiefs last night so we're going to get more pundits liking the Lions. Boomer said the pundits also like the Giants and Jets. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Lions beating the Chiefs last night.

Pt 3 of our series that features Flock Fiber Festival meet & greet sneak peeks and the best wifi that Seattle's Parks department has to offer (lol) is here! This was our 1st festival partnership in this capacity. Meeting everyone and collecting their inspiring stories was so special, but we learned a lot! I cover some of those learnings and of course, you'll hear how these vendors we chatted with began their journeys as a maker! We also have a special peek into how 4 small businesses in WA work together to create beautiful fiber magic! Andrea of Apple Yarns- With my husband, Andrew Evans, we started Apple Yarns in Bellingham, WA, in 2007 in a 700 sqft retail store. Today Apple Yarns is made up of 4 unique divisions; in-person, online, subscriptions, and wholesale and we now occupy 4,000sq. ft. in Bellingham. In addition to loving colorful fiber, knitting, and crochet, one of the things that makes us unique is my love of small business. Jeananne of Cerulean Orchid- An online yarnie boutique and pattern house. We explore our curiosities and nerdom through yarn, patterns, stickers, project bags, and other yarnie goodies in collaboration with our favorite creatives. Jean of Juni and Si - I started dyeing out of curiosity for how it was done and quickly realized I loved seeing my ideas put to yarn. Before I had a plan, I knew I wanted to name my colorways after songs I love. To me, music and color are a perfect match. Both can ignite inspiration, spark a memory or even convey a person's mood without words. Jessica of Purls and Postulates - Aside from inspiring the name for her small business, Jessica's passion for STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) and cultivating that passion in others helped her lead a successful career in education for almost a decade before she turned her focus to dyeing yarns and ensuring her two boys grow up with an enthusiasm for learning.Ashleigh of Sewrella - Based in Apex, North Carolina, thousands of skeins of our whimsical, magical colorways get dyed every week for our preorder collections and in-stock tonals. We believe in the maker's experience being an indulgent one, complete with curated tools, housemade wool wash, hand cream formulated for makers, and so much more.Reshma of Hello Lavender - I launched Hello Lavender in 2016. I started by going to craft fairs and selling knitwear online but then transitioned into making polymer clay stitch markers and earrings in 2020, which took off in a way I could never have imagined. Fibershed Chat - Sarah from San Juan Woolworks, Jess from Skagit Woolen Works, Lydia of Abundant Earth, and Emily of Local Color - A chat about the ways their businesses collaborate to make local yarn and fiber in western Washington, from raising the sheep and dye plants to carding and spinning.Music by Despatches.

As you might have heard, Flock Fiber Festival's inaugural weekend went off without a dropped stitch. ;) What an energy in that place. Just a lovely fiber festival in an old airplane hanger filled with an incredible community of makers and the best wifi that Seattle's Parks department can provide. ;)We sat down with some of the vendors and recorded meet and greets, in hopes of bringing a little Flock to those who could not make it or wanted to know more about the vendors that brought all their artistic beauty to year one. Stay tuned for part 2! Full meet & greet videos coming to the Making app soon!Rachelle of Moondrake Co. - An indie dyed yarn company, comprises a tantalizing array of colors and fibers. A Canadian now living a creative life in Oklahoma. A proud Asian maker, who loves knitting/crocheting/sewing. She is always interested in finding new materials and trendy colors for her dye work.Bethany and Rhys of Woolberry Fiber Co. - We are a family-owned yarn company specializing in hand-dyed yarns sourced from ethical farming practices. Bethany and Rhys run the business together along with our team of yarn assistants at our studio in the Denver metro area. Britt of The Makers of Color Collective and KnotBadBritt - Britt Garber is the crochet designer behind KnotBadBritt. She focuses on crochet shawls with impeccable drape and unique construction. Unable to ignore the lack of diversity in the fiber industry, she was driven to establish the Makers Of Color Collective, which serves as a directory of black, brown, indigenous, and melanated people in the fiber industry. The Collective is a donation-funded resource hosted on her website that allows individuals to discover new ways of diversifying their craft.Kim of Indigodragonfly - Indigodragonfly yarns offers our individual and unique takes on traditional yarn dyeing, refusing to be a cog in the cookie-cutter yarn industry. We specialize in luxury yarns with an emphasis on finding the best yarns as well as developing custom yarns with our global-wide mill partners to bring you products no one else has. Veronica from Miss Babs - Babs and the Miss Babs Team have been dyeing beautiful yarns in our studio in the mountains of eastern Tennessee since 2005. Miss Babs offers a wide variety of yarn bases from lace to chunky in a stunning range of colorways. For us, creating color is curiosity, joy, artistic expression, and often a quest to find that precise just-right hue. Courtney from Silly Goose Yarns - We're about spreading joy and wonder through our playful, unexpected approach to creating and naming our products. With a mischievous twinkle in our eye, we infuse every skein of yarn with a playful spirit that inspires and intrigues makers of all levels, encouraging them to approach their craft with the same sense of unexpected delight.

007: I'm Just a Teenage Knitter, Baby. Released May 7, 2019 In this episode, Anne realizes she knits like a teenager lives, and that's ok. Winner-winner! Congratulations to BohneJl on Ravelry who won the giveaway from episode 6! The prize was a bag from LittleComfortsAtoZ, a hank of hand-spun alpaca, and a set of stitch markers. Enjoy them! To celebrate the winner coming from the Ravelry group, there was a bonus giveaway added for those who are members. Check the thread for details. This additional giveaway will likely be repeated in the future, so be sure to join the group Progress on the Master Hand Knitter Program Anne began work on her seed stitch scarf to practice for the swatch, and found that by pushing the stitches so the next few stitches were on the tapered area of the needle, she could create a more uniform fabric. Progress! Ooh, la la! Not perfect, but getting better! It also helped to only work on it when she can give it her complete attention. Multi-tasking has been relegated to the land of mythology, and Anne has learned this lesson herself, finding that when she gives her knitting her full attention, she creates a more consistent fabric. Knitter's Pride Spring Charity KAL and CAL for Warm Up America! Got some acrylic yarn lying around you don't know what to do with? Between projects and want to stay productive? Be sure to take a look at the Ravelry thread for the Knitter's Pride Spring Charity KAL/CAL. All the details and the form to submit with your knitted or crocheted squares are available there. It launched on May 1 and runs until May 31! There's a chance to win a set of needles or hooks from Knitter's Pride, so get crackin'! Connecticut Sheep, Wool, and Fiber Festival Anne made it to the Connecticut Sheep, Wool, and Fiber Festival in April with her family. It was a nice blend of demonstrations, animals, and shopping. She was able to pick up some goodies from Yankee Knitter Designs, Katrinkles, 7th Floor Yarn, Once Upon a Corgi, and others. Listen to the podcast for the details on her haul. Giveaway Anne picked up a selection of items at the festival to gift to a lucky listener. To enter, follow her on Instagram and join the Ravelry group (one entry for each). Also, find the episode thread on the Ravelry group and share a family-friendly story from your own teen years that makes you laugh now. The storytellers among you will get 5 entries for sharing! The episode 7 giveaway is a selection of items bought at the Connecticut Sheep, Wool, and Fiber Festival, as well as a set of stitch markers from Anne's remaining inventory. Upcoming Events Anne should be attending the Massachusetts Sheep and Woolcraft event on May 25th at the Cummington Fairgrounds. If you would like to say hi, send her a message with an idea of where and when to meet up. (Anne suggests noon at the ring where the sheep sheering will be taking place, but she's never been, so that may not be the best idea! In July, she hopes to spend a few days completing the I-91 Yarn Shop Hop. Eleven shops in 4 days? Sounds like a dream! Be sure to check out this blog entry from Webs, one of the participating shops, for all the details! Featured Music The first song featured was "Teenager," by The Crypts and is available at the Free Music Archive.

006: I Went to London and All I Got Was This Yarn Released April 23, 2019 In this episode, Anne announces the winner of the last giveaway, talks about her trip to London, and announces another giveaway! Winner! Congratulations to Euphistic81 on Instagram, who won the giveaway announced in episode 5 from Dragonfly Fibers and Knitter's Pride! London! Anne and her daughter visited two fashion-related sites in London, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Fashion and Textile Museum, as well as the Fashion Museum in Bath. The V&A was hosting special exhibits about Dior and Mary Quant, but also has a permanent exhibit that includes knitwear. The Fashion and Textile Museum rotates it's exhibits frequently. Even if they aren't showing knitwear at the time, this small museum is very informative! The Fashion Museum in Bath walks you through centuries of fashion through 100 representative outfits, as well as hosting an additional exhibit that changes from time to time. The Mary Quant exhibit at the Victoria and Albert Museum featured a hand-knit dress surrounded by several of the knitting and sewing patterns Quant created so people could make their own versions of her designs. Some of her knitting patterns are available as PDFs from sellers on Etsy. Three Yarn Shops to Visit The Village Haberdashery is located in the West Hampstead area of London, just a short walk from the nearest Underground station. It focuses mainly on yarn and fabric crafts, but is a great little all-around craft store. Liberty London is well known for their Liberty fabrics, but it's also the flagship store for Rowan yarns. For many of us, this is a rare opportunity to take a gander at Rowan's entire line! My sweater's worth of Erila Knight's British Blue 100 from Wool in Bath, UK. Also, the project bag gifted to Anne by Wool's owner, Laura, as a thank you for contributing hats for The Big Knit 2019. Wool is a cozy, welcoming yarn shop just a short walk from the Bath Spa train station in Bath, England. They have an extensive collection of British yarns, a welcoming staff, and a gentle shop dog names Toby. Be sure to stop by on your way to or from the Roman Baths to give Toby a pat and take the time to peruse their extensive pattern offerings! Upcoming Events April 27, 2019 is Local Yarn Store Day. Be sure to check the listings to see if your LYS is participating. Whether they are officially involved of now, consider swinging by to show some support for your local brick-and-mortar stores that day! For those in New England, April 27 is also the day of the Connecticut Sheep, Wool, and Fiber Festival. Anne will be there with her family. Will you? Say hi if you see her there! Giveaway Be sure to listen to the episode to learn how to enter our newest episode for a Japanese Knot bag from LittleComfortsAtoZ and a hank of handspun alpaca from Peru. The episode 6 giveaway is a project bag from LittleComfortsAtoZ (Look for her on Etsy), a hank of handspun alpaca yarn, and a set of stitch markers! Featured Music The first song featured was "The Can't Find Kelly" sung by Billy Merson and is available at the Free Music Archive. The second song was "Ca Bages Ca Beans and Car Rots," sung by Florrie Ford, also available from the Free Music Archive.
