Clara Parkes became many knitters' guiding light and best friend when she launched Knitter's Review in 2000. One of the early standouts in the early online knitting landscape, the site developed a devoted following for its in-depth, objective yarn reviews and lively forums. Several years after the site's inception, she began writing books, starting with The Knitter's Book of Yarn, which was followed by The Knitter's Book of Wool and The Knitter's Book of Socks. As she explored the yarn industry, Clara carefully maintained a journalist's independence, taking readers along with her as she learned how the yarns we love come to be. After her first three books, which were large-format, full-color, and featured a number of designs, her following works have been memoirs of her literal and metaphorical travels or in-depth narratives reporting about the yarn world. In 2012, she launched the Great White Bale, a combination small-batch yarn experiment and behind-the-scenes tour of the remaining American wool industry, for which she purchased a very special bale of wool and reported on its progress through the process of becoming yarn. In recent years, she has created several online communities: The Wool Channel, which is devoted to celebrating wool, and The Daily Respite, which offers a moment of wonder and calm each morning. Clara invites knitters and readers to join her in exploring the ways in which wool is a force for good in the world, and how crafters can join in its support.

Luke Jerram creates spectacular art installations all over the world. He reached millions of people with his work Play Me, I'm Yours, inviting anyone to make music on the 2,000 pianos he had placed on the streets of more than 70 cities. He has also created large sculptures of the moon, the planet Mars and the sun, which were suspended in spaces like cathedrals so that visitors could admire the celestial bodies up close. Julian May follows the creation of the Jerram's latest work, made for Bradford, this year's UK City of Culture. A Good Yarn plays on the double meaning of the word “yarn” – both a length of thread and a story. It looks like a giant multi-coloured ball of wool, three metres high, which will be rolled through the city's streets. Luke Jerram collaborates with Bradford residents to create a kilometre-long rope, made from woollen fabric donated by the public or from second-hand shops. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from In the Studio, exploring the processes of the world's most creative people.

We search for peace in this chaotic month, and find it in a little shop in Kingston, New York. The Yarn Farm is made those who like the company of kindred spirits to ply their craft, sure. It's also great for those who might want to stop for a quick skein or an artsy crafty yarn-ish item, as well. But for those of us who might find Zen in an adult beverage, a perfect charcuterie board and a sunny table by the river, we're also home.Links:https://www.yarnfarmkingston.comhttps://sheepandwool.comhttps://www.dcswga.orgSupport the show

Frank Arkell was Wollongong's long-serving lord mayor and state MP (1974-1991), known for his flamboyant style and tireless advocacy for the city during a period of economic upheaval.Though widely respected in public, allegations about his private life and suspected links to a paedophile ring began to arise in later years. In 1998, Arkell was brutally murdered - a crime that shocked the city and brought those suspicions into sharper focus.

Crafty Adventures Watercolors are still keeping my creative attention. 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 this episode of the Kankakee Podcast, host Bill Yonka welcomes a vibrant lineup of local storytellers as they share personal tales that connect, inspire, and resonate with the Kankakee community. Recorded in front of a live audience, July's Yarn Factory Listeners event takes listeners through a heartfelt and humorous journey—from misadventures on rural roads and the magic of college memories to deeply moving stories of survival, personal loss, and redemption.Kicking things off, Jay Grimes, a retired educator and proud Manteno farm kid, recounts a late-night escapade involving his first car, a flooded country road known as “Freakout Road,” and the string of unlikely events that left a lasting impression on his college years. Moran Beasley, a diehard Chicago Cubs fan, follows with the unforgettable story of witnessing the Cubs make history—while working the fog machine at Bourbonnais' Sleepy Hollow attraction—and the chaos his celebration sparked.The episode continues as Tyler McMahon brings listeners to another world with his imaginative story, “Kaleidoscope,”—a colorful tale of rebellion and hope in a planet ruled by monotony. Dr. Adrienne Walker then delivers a powerful account of her life-changing educational journey, overcoming obstacles to earn five degrees, all while following the signs she believed were sent to her by God. In a moving tribute, Quincy Young reflects on the loss of his father and grandfather, candidly exploring grief, hope, and the changing dynamic of family connections.The episode concludes with MacKenzie Cloy's deeply personal testimony about surviving a near-fatal car accident and discovering purpose in her second chance at life.With laughter, tears, and plenty of local flavor, this special storytelling showcase celebrates the spirit of Kankakee—highlighting resilience, community, and the power of sharing our stories. Whether you're reminiscing about Eastern Illinois University or finding hope in hardship, you'll find connection and catharsis in every segment.Thinking about sharing your own story? They might just have a spot for you onstage next time.Tune in for an episode packed with heart, humor, and the unforgettable voices that make Kankakee shine.Send us a text Support the show

Tamara White always has one eye on the skies. Whether she's getting her sheep ready for shearing, welcoming visitors to classes and events on the farm, or watching over the yarn in kettles of natural dye, there isn't a moment when the weather isn't on her mind. Although rain and heat make hard work of tending a flock of 100+ sheep plus calves, chickens, and other livestock, Tammy sees her work as a collaboration with Mother Nature. Most yarn production farms consist of hundreds of animals of a single breed, enough to produce consistent batches of single-breed yarn. Tammy's way is more difficult, but more fun. In addition to her original small group of Shetlands, she has an evolving mix of breeds: sometimes Clun Forest, sometimes Teeswater, and most recently Valais Blacknose, a recent Swiss import dubbed the “world's cutest sheep.” Wing & A Prayer Farm's yarn line includes a number of fiber blends, not only to incorporate the farm's different wools but also to bring the best traits of various breeds together. Creating yarns this way also invites collaboration with other shepherds and a number of small mills to whom she trusts her batch of wool. The collaboration with nature continues in dyeing the yarn. A self-taught dyer, Tammy creates as many colors as she can with plants that she can grow in her garden or forage on her property. To support her farm and community, Tammy takes on a wide range of other projects: making soap and pies, selling eggs, hosting classes, and selling breeding stock to other shepherds. It's an enormous amount of work, but Tammy talks about her farm with such joy that it hardly sounds like a chore.

Introducing: the Arn! Esplin discovers his love for method acting. Aldrea asks to speak to the Arn's manager. Was Aldrea the first “unlikable” narrator for many young readers— or at least the first narrator who behaved in such unlikable ways? Is Dak really the first Hork-Bajir to make it through the blue mists of the Arn's Zone, or are the Arn just pushing the others into planet's fiery core? How is the interspecies relationship between Tobias and Rachel similar and different to the relationship between Aldrea and Dak? What does it mean for Ax that he has a full support system during his Andante deprogramming while Aldrea has only Dan?

How do you eat Cheetos safely while knitting so everything is not covered with a fine neon orange dust? Chopsticks! How do you keep your balls of yarn from doing the Tango in your knitting bag while you are not looking? Yarn bras! How do you get yourself to do the things that you really don't want to do, like bookkeeping and managing your social media? Wear a tiara! How do fix your yarn after frogging a project so you can actually use it again? These are just some of the fun and helpful tips that Michele Lee Bernstein of PDXKnitterati shares with us here. Michele is a wonderful designer, teacher, blogger and author of Brioche Knit Love: 21 Skill Building Projects from Simple to Sublime, but her knitting journey began when she was 14 years old and too boy-crazy for her mother. So off she went to visit her Aunt Rose for a summer in Huntington Beach, California. We don't know what happened in the boy-crazy department, but her Aunt Rose taught her to knit, and she has never looked back. Her ambitious first project, a baby-blue pullover sweater with cables in front, also taught her that she has "a two-skein attention span" and her favorite three words are "Gauge not critical."She loves designing and teaching brioche knitting, but her knitting is always evolving--there's just so much to learn about knitting and food! Definitely try her recipe for Chocolate Chip Shortbread! She has recently added assigned pooling to her brioche repertoire, as shown in this design, "Scattered Petals." Unlike planned pooling, which requires a rock-steady gauge and careful calculations--not the best combination for a gauge-not-critical knitter!--assigned pooling is more random and free-form, with a pop of color conveyed through a special stitch every time a color occurs. She writes her patterns with the idea that they offer suggestions:"Assigned pooling is really fun, but just remember that you are the boss of the knitting, it's not the boss of you. . . Everything it tells you is a suggestion, but you are in charge!"--Michele Lee BernsteinThis is the magical flow of knitting: the way we discover that we always have something more to learn from a whole new technique liked assigned pooling to a quick tip about making yarn bras from a mesh bath poof. Michele Lee Bernstein taught us a lot in this episode, and we are honored to share it with you!

In this heartwarming and wisdom-filled episode, Cadence Kidwell of Fuzzy Goat (a yarn store in Thomasville, Georgia) shares how she's built a thriving business rooted in connection, creativity, and community support. Whether you're a seasoned retailer or just starting out, Cadence's story will inspire you to think big, act bravely, and build something meaningful. Key Takeaways from a Retail Yarn Store Owner: Cadence shares her inspirational journey from university teacher to yarn shop owner Why community is the most important product she sells How she built a strong, trusted team that loves the store like it's their own Creative marketing tools she swears by (like countdowns and story-driven videos) How events like Local Yarn Shop Day bring huge in-store traffic Why offering benefits like retirement plans helps retain staff The importance of mentorship, coaching, and always learning something new “We're not just selling yarn. We are selling connection and whimsy.” - Cadence Kidwell About Cadence and Fuzzy Goat Prior to opening Fuzzy Goat, Cadence Kidwell obtained a PhD in Creative Writing and designed a certificate program for students to develop cultural competencies while working at Florida State University. She was happy with that career but began dreaming of her own shop. She decided that she could either steady-on into the last decade of university life or she could join the makers' life by building a business from a rough-worn building & filling it with beautiful yarns made by strong women. Luckily for Thomasville (and the rest of us) she chose the latter. Fuzzy Goat is truly an independent business with over 90% of our merchandise created by other independent women makers. Fuzzy Goat creates a space where conversation across generations and life experiences is valued and sought after.

Knitting in Passing A nice gentleman said my crochet was beautiful and that he crochets. I showed him my tank top which was nearly done at the time. We went to a grad party for my SIL and a friend of hers remembered me from Zach's birthday. She wants to crochet so we talked about resources etc. Reconnected with some of Dan's cousins recently. His cousin Melissa and I often talk books, so that was fun but she also said she'd like to learn to knit and/or crochet. Hoping to get together with her for lunch in Boston soon. Thank you to Suzanne- Sew Run It for the beautiful handknit hat and three knit hearts for my birthday. She started it shortly after my mom passed. Her notes say "The colors screamed Diane! The pattern is called Pair of Hearts and it too felt like a connection with her. I know you were and will remain close." Pattern= Pair of Hearts is by Chit Chat Knits and is available on Ravelry for $4.50. Lauren lbeth21 messaged me with Jess from Stitched by Jessalu at Central NY Fiber Fest Susie of The Huckleberry Girl offered to send me a bag.
