podcast fun
Over the last few months, I’ve been adding a few new podcasts to listen to. I’ve been wanting to make a list to share of the ones I enjoy. I’m currently tracking my podcasts on the blog on the craft column at kadyellebee.
- Knit Picks: the first podcast I listened to and it’s consistently good with a nice mix of Knit Picks info, interviews, techniques, and lately we’ve heard more from other employees. podcast site, iTunes link, @KnitPicks
- Stash and Burn: found this before I started knitting because I worked with the husband of one of the hosts. This is a great multiple-person podcast. I have been introduced to a lot of new yarns and patterns here, in a pre-ravelry world! They also have a love of similar TV to me, and so that adds a nice touch. podcast site, iTunes link, @stashandburn
- Ready Set Knit: this is the podcast for the husband-wife owners of Webs, and it’s an actual radio segment in their area. It’s nice and short and a nice little burst to keep me up on what is new in the yarn world. The interviews are usually quite interesting without dragging because Kathy keeps them moving. I’m not always as into Pixie’s segment, but I’m sure it’s helpful to some. podcast site, iTunes link, @websyarnstore
- The Knitmore Girls: found this mother-daughter team at Sock Summit, and they are delightful. They have a very nicely structured podcast, and they are passionate about their knitting and spinning. They are in Southern CA and it’s fun to hear the great places they go visit. podcast site, iTunes link, @knitmoregirls
- Brass Needles: Miss Kalendar is not just a knitter, she’s a scifi buff. She’s my first real introduction to steampunk and she does faires all dressed up. I first learned of Erin from The Knitmore Girls. podcast site, @Miss_Kalendar
- The Manic Purl: Chrissy the great 🙂 Although her podcast is a little longer than I normally fit into my schedule, I find some great nuggets of info. And it’s fun to hear her Vancouver accent! She has some Online Finds that she spotlights that are nice to explore. podcast site, iTunes link, @manicpurl
- KIPing it Real: Jackie has a very nice voice to listen to. She’s from Missouri, and both knits and spins. podcast site, iTunes link, blog, @KnitsAndWiggles
- Knitted Spoon: Knitting and vegetarian food and family. Her husband joins her on occasion, and I enjoy that. The Manic Purl podcast introduced me to her. podcast site, iTunes link, @knittedspoon
- StitchIt!: Meghan is someone I’ve newly found, and even though she’s on a sabbatical right now, her podcast was really interesting. She had some really good thoughts for making 2010 be better for herself. podcast site, iTunes link, @itsjustmeghan
- KnitCents: KIPing it Real introduced me to this new podcast. Rachel gives tips for making your knitting budget count. podcast site, iTunes link, @Roue0824
- Periodically, I watch some video podcasts like CRAFT podcast, Etsy, and Let’s Knit Together
If you are interested in following all of these people at once on Twitter, I have a podcast list with them all.
