The Knitting Mamas | Stress Relief for moms, Knitting made simple, routines, better sleep
Hello, Knitting Mamas! Today's episode is particularly close to my heart, as I share the personal lessons I learned when I picked up my knitting needles again in 2020 after more than 20 years. In this episode, you'll discover: The unexpected joy of circular knitting needles Small projects vs. larger ones and which one I would recommend Navigating material choices and surprising realizations The yarn I mention in this episode is called Hue & Me by Lionbrand and can be purchased here. Knitting is for everyone: Whether you're revisiting knitting after years or just starting, this episode aims to simplify the craft and encourage you to dive in. Let's connect and knit together: Join our Mindful Knitting Facebook community and mark your calendars for the Knit + Chill Circle on the 27th. It's like a cozy gathering, but with knitting, and it's happening right inside our community. Connect, learn and work with me.
Have you ever felt the pull of the mystical in the rhythmic click of knitting needles or the swirl of a spoon in your morning brew? We're joined by Katie Rempe, the Knit Witch, a weaver of yarns and caster of spells, who embodies the magical intertwining of witchcraft and daily living. Together, we traverse her spellbinding path from questioning her abilities to fully embracing the witch within, and she unveils her enchanting knitting pattern brand, Light from Lantern. Our conversation unwraps the simple yet profound practices that can transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, and reminds us that the magic we seek is often found in the familiar folds of our day-to-day lives.Setting intentions isn't just for New Moon rituals—it's woven into the fabric of our creative endeavors and personal transformations. We chat about the importance of maintaining a practice even when self-doubt attempts to cloud our personal skies, and discuss the unexpected gifts of imposter syndrome that can arise within the knitting community and beyond. Discover how a change in perspective can renew your passion, whether you're casting a spell or casting on stitches.We round off our magical gathering by celebrating the tools that aid our craft, the rollercoaster of life choices that define our paths, and the paradox that is witchcraft. Katie reveals how a seemingly mundane item like a travel steamer can become an indispensable ally in her magical knitting practice, and how music, with its lyrical messages, often acts as an oracle. We also pay homage to those who guide us—be they podcast co-hosts, supportive families, or four-legged familiars. So, tune in and let's cast a spell of inspiration and creativity together, for as we've learned, an average day can hold the most extraordinary magic.Support the showSupport the show and get tons of bonus content, videos, monthly spell boxes, and more at CrepuscularConjuration.com!Or become a paying subscriber on Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1777532/supportWant to see if you're a good fit for the show?

The founder and CEO of the International Civil Society Action Network, Sanam Naraghi Anderlini MBE, calls for a complete rethink of international approaches to conflict resolution to better reflect the increasing fragmentation of warfare. Sharing first-hand accounts of her encounters with Gucci gangsters in Jamaica and South Africa's Knitting Needles Guerrilla, and recounting a dash after a foreign minister through the corridors of the UN, she demonstrates the importance of diversifying voices at the negotiating table and how the pivotal UNSC Resolution 1325 established a new discourse for the inclusion of women in peacemaking.
Today we're going back to basics! First up, Stacey and Hannah share some insights into knitting needles.

Laura discusses why she decided not to have a birth plan, how having an epidural helped her regain control after pain caused her to panic and worry during labour, and how she felt both overwhelmed and underwhelmed when the baby finally arrived. They also take a listener question about different methods of induction.Find out more about Laura’s new project Hoste here: https://hostelondon.co.uk/Follow Clemmie's Mother of Daughters account: instagram.com/mother_of_daughters/Follow Clemmie's Gas and Air account: instagram.com/gasandair/Clemmie's book How to grow a baby and push it out is available now: amazon.co.uk/How-Grow-Baby-Push-Out/dp/1785040383Birth Stories is produced by Hannah Varrall and created by Off Script*This podcast is not to replace medical advice.

Darlene Matz, mega knitter but also commissioned Pastor for the Presbyterian church in Kaktovik Alaska Knitting is relaxing. I’m from northern Minnesota where I lived on the reservation. Today I am a commissioned Presbyterian pastor and I serve Kaktovik Presbyterian church. Being a grandmother is remarkable. My special phrase is, ‘Alone we cannot change the world but we can make it a better place for one other person.’ I love helping people and being with people. Each hat is UniqueI read Little House on the Prairie books. They knitted and I wanted to also learn to knit. The lady I learned from is left handed. Being that I am right handed my knitting is different from other knitters. In 2005 my mother died and I had just started making hats after not knitting for many years. My stepfather said to me, “how many of those are you going to do anyway?” My answer was 25. Sadly, my stepfather laughed at me. Well that made me more determined to do more than 25. Since 2012 I’ve made more than 3,000 hats. Knitting is fun. I make hats for the homeless and the villages in northern Alaska. I’m free with my time to do it. I don’t want to sit at my house. Being involved with people makes me happy. Once I finish a hat it is done. I don’t deliver the hats because I can’t travel to all of the villages, therefore I cannot see the happiness and smiles from the children and adults. But the response is not important. In the native culture it means more if something is hand done and I make each hat unique so people can take pride in wearing it. A Sewing Machine that Brought Rags to RichesWhen I was in Tanzania where my husband was working there was a woman who had several children and no money. Her home was made out of banana leaves. I wanted to help her but I didn’t want to just give money. From my inquiries I learned that she liked to sew but she no longer had the means to do so. Matata is her name and I bought a sewing machine for her. Getting her started cost about $200.00 with an extra $50 for clothes and food. I felt good about the experience; in fact it is the biggest impact for me to see. That little offering changed her life and the community’s as well because that seamstress became a community leader out there. She’s making changes for the better. Touching people’s lives in simple ways is fulfilling.

Trond Anfinnsen is the inspiring sort of guy who gets an idea, commits to it and sees it through to its creative end. And then when he's done, he starts the process all over again. On this episode of CraftSanity you'll hear Trond, 42, of Stavanger, Norway tell the story of how he became a ravenous knitter just a few years back and ended up knitting more than 200 one-of-a-kind hats for people in his life. Tune in to find out how a Flickr gallery of photos of people wearing his hats led to a book deal. (Trond's friend Klaus Nilsen Skrudland took all the photos.) Fifty of his hats are included in his book: “HatHeads: 1 Man + 2 Knitting Needles = 50 Fun Hat Designs.” I posted the Silje pattern featured on the lower right of the book cover and p. 116 inside on this blog a while back and still have big plans to make that hat. Trond's book is cool because it gives 50 examples of how a simple knitting pattern can be customized for each individual. He even shares some great tips about how to design a one-of-a-kind hat of your own. Unlike most craft books, Trond's introduces us to all the people who modeled hats for the book. Under each photo is a brief intro to these people and explanation of their connection to Trond. I love the sense of community that Trond created with his knitting. It's lovely, really. And it so makes me want to knit a hat. Right now.
Hints and tips for media appearances and public speaking. This week; Northern Rock; Sex Pistols; Jose Mourinho; Knitting Needles; Paint a Picture; Stand Your Ground; Make Every Page Work; a feature interview with sporting and speaking legend Jim Tunney.
