Thank you for listening to Part 8 in our 1 Corinthians series, "Ratchet and Righteous".   Date: 8/28/25 Speaker: Pastor Will Broadus Passage: 1 Corinthians 4:14-21   Preach The Gospel. Produce Disciples. Pursue Justice.

This is Anne's Book Club, a spotlight episode of the Long Thread Podcast where we share conversations about exciting new craft titles. This episode features three new books from Storey Publishing: The Stitched Landscape by Anna Hultin, The Handsewn Wardrobe by Louisa Owen Sonstroem, and Knitting Cowlettes by Safiyyah Talley. You'll hear a conversation with each of the authors, followed by an excerpt of some of my favorite passages. I was excited to choose each of the titles to feature, and I hope you enjoy the conversations and the books as much as I have! The Stitched Landscape: An Embroidery Field Guide to the Textures, Colors, and Lines of the Natural World Anna Hultin has so much to teach you—to stitch, of course, but mostly to see. With a background in art education and a habit of looking closely at the land around her, Anna offers concrete skills as well as encouraging prompts to develop your own relationship with where you are. Her book includes step-by-step projects, detailed instructions for common plants, and techniques for sketching, stitching, and painting your own personal landscape. Her book gently pushes embroiderers who might be reluctant to consider their work as art toward creativity, exploration, adaptation, and staking their own ground, all within the frame of an embroidery hoop. From Anna's introduction to The Stitched Landscape (https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/anna-hultin/the-stitched-landscape/9781635868456/?lens=storey?lens=storey-publishing-llc&utm_source=LongThreadMedia&utm_medium=Digital&utm_campaign=AnnaHultin_TheStitchedLandscape_Pub_RetailClicks_Storey_9781635868456&utm_content=CRAFTSHOBBIES&utm_term=Interests_Podcast_craft_GenPop): This isn't your typical embroidery book. Although it has plenty of embroidery patterns for you to follow, more than anything this book offers in-depth practice of the artistic process—from the spark of inspiration to a final piece and everything in between. I hope you will learn as much about observing the land as you do about embroidery. Whether you are picking up a needle and thread for the first time or have experience as a fiber artist, and wherever you are in the seasons of your life, my aim is to inspire you to grow in your creative practice. The projects are meant to build your skills and offer opportunities for discovery as you develop your own style and point of view. I'm excited to see how you'll take what you learn in these pages and apply it to your own observations of the world around you. **Anna Hultin* is the artist and educator behind Olander CO Embroidery. She uses needle and thread to create contemporary embroideries that explore the often overlooked beauty of the subtle textures and colors of the Colorado landscape. Anna lives with her family in Loveland, Colorado.* The Handsewn Wardrobe: A Complete Guide to Making Your Own Clothes from Patternmaking to the Finishing Stitches To make clothes that you love, says Louisa Owen Sonstroem, pick up a pencil and paper, needle and thread, and get stitching. Trained in commercial patternmaking, she knows the strengths—and limitations—of off-the-rack clothing and pattern-envelope sewing. Her new book teaches sewists to handsew clothes that seem out of reach for today's makers: hoodies, leggings, and even a denim jacket. If that sounds too time-consuming, skill-demanding, or slow, Louisa's book will surprise you. The book invites you to set aside clothing designed for someone else's body and create garments that will fit you perfectly. She calls The Handsewn Wardrobe “two books in one”: a primer on patternmaking that frees you from generic commercial patterns and a sewing book that teaches techniques for stitching garments by hand. In over 300 pages of instruction, she takes you from making a pattern for a basic tee to drafting a custom pair of jeans. For weavers and crafters with precious fabrics, handsewing lets you make the best use of precious fabric, not only by minimizing waste but also by creating garments you will wear proudly. From The Handsewn Wardrobe: (https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/louisa-owen-sonstroem/the-handsewn-wardrobe/9781635866261/?lens=storey?lens=storey-publishing-llc&utm_source=LongThreadMedia&utm_medium=Digital&utm_campaign=LouisaOwenSonstroem_TheHandsewnWardrobe_Pub_RetailClicks_Storey_9781635866261&utm_content=CRAFTSHOBBIES&utm_term=Interests_Podcast_craft_GenPop) Learning how to make patterns is one of the coolest, most transformative experiences. You can make anything! Patternmaking may have a bit of a reputation as an intimidating, difficult discipline, but it needn't be that way. There are so many more possibilities than limitations in this craft. And, by the way, no one knows everything about patternmaking—no one!—so just relax and enjoy yourself. Make note of the principles shared in this book and elsewhere, but lean into the gray areas and creative opportunities, too. You'll learn just as much by messing around with patterns as by following anyone's instructions. The more you try, the more you'll learn. It's a radical, simple act to make your own clothes by hand. The tools are few, and most are relatively inexpensive. The techniques needn't be complicated, either—with a handful of good stitches at your command, you'll be able to construct all manner of beautiful, sturdy garments. And if you approach your projects with a willingness to experiment, you'll never stop learning. Empowerment, accessibility, mental stimulation, endless opportunities for growth, and a set of amazing clothes—what's not to love? **Louisa Owen Sonstroem* studied design and patternmaking at Fashion Institute of Technology. She works in technical design and patternmaking and teaches hand sewing and patternmaking classes. She also started Patternmaking in Public Places (PIPP), an outreach project to democratize access to patternmaking skills. Louisa lives in Connecticut with her family, in a house filled with board books, dog beds, and lots of fabric.* Knitting Cowlettes: Clever Techniques for Making Custom Mini-Cowls to Elevate Any Outfit Innovative knitter Safiyyah Talley's first book, Knit 2 Socks in 1, offered a clever new way of knitting socks. In her new book, she offers a fresh look at neckwear with a collection of cowlettes—wearable cowl/shawl hybrids. In addition to 23 patterns, the book includes methods for designing your own cowlette, finessing fit, and yarn selection. Besides the range of lovely designs, the joy of this book is the expansive view of knitting, offering patterns for any skill level and personal style. Simple and versatile, Safiyyah's cowlettes beckon you to cast on. From Safiyyah's introduction to Knitting Cowlettes: (https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/safiyyah-talley/knitting-cowlettes/9781635868012/?lens=storey?lens=storey-publishing-llc&utm_source=LongThreadMedia&utm_medium=Digital&utm_campaign=SafiyyahTalley_KnittingCowlettes_Pub_RetailClicks_Storey_9781635868012&utm_content=CRAFTSHOBBIES&utm_term=Interests_Podcast_craft_GenPop) I like to gift cowlettes because they are quick, gender neutral, size inclusive, and very useful. There are just so many scenarios that call for one that I even gift them to myself. Wake up to a chill in the air? Pop on a cowlette. Want to dress up an outfit? Pop on a cowlette. Need to show off a knitted item at the knitting convention, and it's a very hot and crowded July day? Say it with me now: “Pop on a cowlette!” You might be wondering, “What exactly is a cowlette?” Cowlette is a term created by innovative knitwear designer Carina Spencer and it is the lovechild of a cowl—a circular scarf—and a shawlette, or a small shawl. Cowlettes have a similar construction to a shawl, but with the wearability of a cowl. Shawls tend to slip and slide when worn, unless secured in some way with a knot or a shawl pin. Cowlettes look like shawls, but they are knit in the round, so the wearer doesn't have to worry about them falling off. Just like shawls, cowlettes are first worked flat from the top down. Stitches are added in the form of increases until the work is large enough to fit comfortably around the wearer's neck. The cowlette is then joined in the round and worked to the desired size and length. When searching online for cowlette patterns, you may find them under “cowls” or “shawls,” because it is a fairly new knitting term. But the very best part of making cowlettes is how customizable they are. With the help of this book, you can easily design your own. You can control the difficulty, size, yarn amount, and gauge with very little prep and only as much math as you wish! It is the perfect project for all knitters, from beginner to expert. All you need to get started is a ball of yarn, circular knitting needles, and a sense of adventure. **Safiyyah Talley* is the author of* Knit 2 Socks in 1 and creator of the popular blog The Drunk Knitter. She teaches knitting classes virtually and at knitting shows. Safiyyah lives in Indiana.

On this week's episode of the Modern Retail Podcast, co-hosts Gabriela Barkho and Melissa Daniels go deep on the much-hyped NikeSkims launch. They discuss the look and vibe of the collections that debuted this week and where it might find a white space in the athleisure market. Then on the featured segment (16:06), Daniels speaks with Modern Retail reporter Mitchell Parton to unpack craft retailer Michaels' new store layouts as it attempts to fill the voids left by Joann and Party City that went bankrupt earlier this year. Parton met with new Michaels' CEO David Boone to discuss how the retailer dedicated a quarter of its floor space to new areas, called The Knit and Sew Shop and The Party Shop. Their conversation gets into the demand and opportunity for this strategy, including how searches for “fabric” on Michaels.com increased by 77% over the past year, and why Michaels' new area called The Party Shop includes lowered prices on party decor items like streamers, napkins and tableware. They also discussed the importance of store associate training and capacity to handle more products, customer inquiries and new responsibilities around balloon filling and fabric cutting.

The Ewethful community is a strong, inclusive and inspiring group of maker's. I decided to start this Community Makers series as a way to share the stories and spaces of different creators in this community. My goal here is to showcase the people and their spaces, big and small, that we find both comfortable and inspiring.  This is Part 2 with Amy where she and I sit down to knit and chat about the joys of being creative. To watch the Part 1 on YouTube: https://youtu.be/AY45T9yCiUI

1 Thessalonians 2:13–3:5

Sunday-9-21-25 Pastor Scott Hanson

Whether you use needles, a loom, a hook, or even just your hands, there's a craft in the fiber arts space for everyone who wants to get creative. You'll never run out of ideas for projects, but those projects need yarn and thread to get done - and that's where the Greater Boston Yarn Crawl comes in! More than a dozen small yarn shops are taking part in this year's Crawl, including Sit 'N Knit in Melrose. Owner Jennifer Goldenberg talks with Nichole this week about the event and the recent surge of people joining the fiber arts community.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for July 30th Publish Date: July 30th Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Wednesday, July 30th and Happy Birthday to Arnold Schwarzenegger I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal New bagel shop offers a steamed twist near Marietta Square Marietta kindergartners get first taste of school bus life Fake Romeos used Facebook, Instagram and other platforms in scheme to swindle women All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: INGLES 7 STORY 1: New bagel shop offers a steamed twist near Marietta Square Sully’s Steamers has opened its first metro Atlanta location near Marietta Square, offering steamed bagel sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. Known for their “always steamed, never toasted” approach, the bagels are steamed twice for a tender, melt-in-your-mouth experience. Popular menu items include The Griswold, featuring turkey, bacon, and barbecue sauce, and the Nacho Maximus, topped with nacho cheese Doritos. Co-owned by Sophie Balas and her parents, the family aims to bring this unique concept, originally founded in South Carolina, to the Marietta community. Sully’s is open daily, serving a variety of bagel flavors and creative sandwiches. STORY 2: Marietta kindergartners get first taste of school bus life Marietta’s annual "Ready, Set, Ride" event gave first-time bus riders a practice run before the school year begins. Over 100 students participated, preparing for the return of 8,500 students across 12 campuses, with 5,800 riding buses. Bus driver Cathy Wells decorated her bus with positive messages, calling it an extension of the classroom. She emphasized safety rules, reminding kids to sit properly. Kindergartener Waverly Andrews experienced her first bus ride with excitement, while fifth-grader Giovanna Ricciardi guided her younger brother Nico, ensuring a smooth start to the school year. STORY 3: Fake Romeos used Facebook, Instagram and other platforms in scheme to swindle women Kenneth G. Akpieyi, a Georgia man, was convicted in Louisiana for his role in a $3 million romance scam targeting women online. Using social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram, Akpieyi and others lured victims into fake relationships, later requesting money for fraudulent causes via encrypted apps like WhatsApp. Akpieyi, operating under the alias Phillip Anderson, funneled funds through his company, KGA Autobrokers LLC, to accounts in China and the UAE. He faces up to 40 years in prison and significant fines, with sentencing set for Nov. 5. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 7 STORY 4: Keegan’s Irish Pub brings Irish flavor to downtown Acworth Keegan’s Irish Pub has opened its second location on Main Street in Acworth, offering a cozy Irish atmosphere with traditional fare like shepherd’s pie and its bestselling Reuben spring rolls. Owner Pete McCaffery, who also runs a Kennesaw location, emphasizes hands-on management, doing everything from cooking to serving. The pub, adorned with Irish flag colors, has quickly become a local favorite, with patrons praising its authentic vibe, great food, and friendly environment. McCaffery envisions it as a welcoming spot for families and friends to gather, eat, and enjoy soccer. STORY 5: Three Cobb educators named 2025 Teachers of the Year Cobb Superintendent Chris Ragsdale surprised staff at three schools to announce the district’s Teachers of the Year: Caleb Garrett (Compton Elementary), Lakeisha Grange (Betty Gray Middle), and Amanda Dillard (Pope High). Each teacher, selected by colleagues, was praised for their dedication and impact on students. They received a pin, crystal award, and a free one-year car lease, with the district winner earning the car permanently. Garrett, a fourth-year teacher, called it a “full circle moment,” while Grange emphasized building lasting relationships with students. Dillard, a special education teacher, highlighted helping students find their passion. Break: STORY 6: Sewell Mill Library Knit and Stitch meets Aug. 6 Knit and Stitch, a monthly meetup for adults to work on crafts like knitting, crochet, embroidery, or cross-stitch, takes place at 11 a.m. on the first Wednesday of each month at Sewell Mill Library in Marietta. Participants must bring their own supplies, as no materials are provided. The event is not instructional and requires no registration. For details, call 770-509-4987 or visit cobbcat.org/library. STORY 7: Sheriff Owens calls for unity at 34th annual shrimp boil in Cobb The Cobb County Sheriff’s 34th annual Low Country Shrimp Boilin’ drew 400 attendees to Jim Miller Park. Sheriff Craig Owens continued the tradition, emphasizing it as a community event, not political. Guests enjoyed shrimp, live music, and family activities, with proceeds supporting Owens’ reelection and community programs like backpack drives and holiday donations. Owens, Cobb’s first African-American sheriff, highlighted unity and equal treatment for all citizens, regardless of political affiliation. Local officials and community members praised Owens’ leadership and dedication to Cobb County. We’ll have closing comments after this.

Loving it!   Knitting in Passing   On a July 3 MBTA ferry commute, I sat with a crocheter. We talked about our projects and fav LYSs. I showed her how simple magic loop knitting is. Laura brought socks to her client David when she got back to NY. He sent me a photo asking if they were Cashmere because they were so soft and noting how great they looked with the pants he had on. Then I got a pic of his foot under his desk at work the next day. (Ravelry Project Page) On July 7, a man chatted with me on the Red Line about memories of his mother, sisters and daughters crocheting. Emelyn has been wanting to crochet again but is feeling rusty. On July 4th I reminded them how to single & half-double crochet. Last weekend, they started a star project so we worked with DC and how to work corners and getting used to reading a pattern.   In My Travels Splash Pad Party Registration is open View Stats and/or Verify Registration here.

From redefining creative productivity to unmasking through memoir, Christina and Angela break down internalized ableism, the pressure of neurotypical success standards, and the value of sensory-soothing creative practices like knitting and journaling.All this, and we announce our amazing winners from our eighth writing contest!Here are our top two entries.OUR WINNER

Humans are intricately woven together in the womb.Preached June 15, 2025Pastor Aaron Frasier

If you've ever lost your place mid-row, miscounted a repeat, or thought, “Wait—did I already increase here?”… today's episode is going to be a game-changer. In this Knit & Tell mini episode, I'm sharing the tiniest (but mightiest!) tool that makes knitting smoother, calmer, and way more fun: stitch markers. We'll chat about why they're not just “nice to have,” the ones I swear by from Twice Sheared Sheep, and one creative little way I use them that might surprise you.

These can be anything including stitch counts, the corresponding written instructions, etc. see here: https://www.knitcompanion.com/ufaqs/row-reminders/ Question 2: for sure! He can add stitch markers around the repeat in the chart. This can be color matched to markers in his work either around the whole repeat area, or for each individual repeat. And optionally also color coordinated with a simple counter set to count from 1-x where x is the number of repeats.
