Podcasts about knitted lace

In this episode, I welcome Monique Boonstra, a very talented lace knitter and designer and general lovely person. She explains that her skills are part talent and part hard work and many hours of practice. She shares her practice with us and offers over an hour of insights and inspiration to knitters and (starting) business owners in the knitting industry.If you have questions about how to calculate prices for your knitting and where to find customers that will pay the right price, Monique Boonstra gives us a masterclass in how she calculates the prices for her very intricate lace knitted shawls. Spoiler; she doesn't have an hourly rate but figured out a way to get a fair price and still she gets customers that order multiple (!!) shawls from her.With this podcast I want to take you with me on my journey to discover the answers to these questions: What do we buy, Where do we buy, Who do we buy from… Or don’t we buy at all but use what we already have? And how relevant is my job as a yarn shop owner selling people stuff when we already have more than we need? How can I make my life as an entrepreneur and textile crafter smaller and more relevant to these times?Have a question? Want to leave a message?

With the weather finally warming up here in the Pacific Northwest, knitting lace have been on everyone's mind here at the office. On a recent trip, Kelley was fortunate enough to be sitting next to a fellow knitter on the plane back to Portland. She got the opportunity to share her love of knitting with her new knitting pal and Kelley recaps her reasons to knit lace as well as why new knitters shouldn't be afraid to tackle lace projects. Next up, Kelley presents three different books on lace - the first being The Very Easy Guide to Lace Knitting by Lynne Watterson, a perfect guide for knitters new to lace. Next up, Kelley talks about The Art of Knitted Lace which features a stunning collection of garments that show off lace patterns by a collection of designers - ideal for knitters looking to take their lace knitting in a new direction. And for experienced or adventurous lace knitters, Kelley recommends Wrapped in Lace by Margaret Stove - an beautiful collections of designs inspired by Margaret's life. Finally,this lace lovers podcast wraps up with a "What's On My Needles" segment where Kelley gives an update on her Anniversary Shawl and highlights new projects on her needles.
