Pom Pom Quarterly
United Kingdom
Приєднався 26 бер 2012
Pom Pom was founded in 2012 as a quarterly that would present knitting, crochet, and craft in the modern, beautiful, and meaningful way we’ve always known it should be. Mainly conceived as a collection of patterns complemented by thoughtful writing and useful tutorials, we also celebrate the joy of making, hopefully without taking ourselves too seriously!
Episode 78 – Short Rows: 'What Lies Beneath' with Naomi Polonsky at Murray Edwards College
Hi Pomcats! We hope you’re having a great summer? The Pomcast is currently on a summer break, but we’re bringing you a bonus episode to enjoy! We’re talking to Naomi Polonsky, an assistant curator at Murray Edwards College in Cambridge and learning all about the current exhibition ‘What Lies Beneath; Woman, Politics, Textiles’.
We were lucky enough to have a private tour of the exhibition and have a chat with Naomi afterwards about the art works and creating the show. This episode is the recording of our interview with Naomi where we find out about the exhibition and the Woman’s Art Collection, the largest collection of modern and contemporary art by women!
The exhibition is on until 28th August, but if you can’t make it person, you can take the virtual tour online at womensart.murrayedwards.cam.ac.uk. Thanks so much to Naomi and to Laura Mosely who organised this visit for us!
Remember you can keep in touch with us and other Pomcast listeners via our Ravelry forum, and you can send us your musings via email at podcast@pompommag.com. To be kept informed with all the latest updates, delightful titbits, and treats, we recommend signing up to our weekly newsletter!

So beautiful, and so inspiring. Thanks for the tour, Stephen and Brioche.
The best LYS tour guides we could ask for!
I adore your book it’s so amazing hundreds of ideas and ways to make them, I was so excited when it arrived. Well done, it’s amazing. 💖
What a great technique. So easy to do and REMEMBER.
Yeeeeessss! Thank you for the representation for the plus size knitters. It’s so great to see the community open up to be more size inclusive with patterns. Thank you Jacqueline 💕
😍 We're so proud to publish Jacqui's designs and words!
Oh my gosh, thank you for this. I will be using this to make a stuffed animal with shaped eyes. And I think I will be using to make socks, actual pockets and so forth!!!
So pleased you found it useful! :)
Brilliant. Thank you. X
This can be done with vertical pockets, yes, maybe???
thank you for this. I have been hesitant about sock knitting because I wasn't sure about heels. Now I can try, you have taken away the 'fear factor'.
Yay. Great series. I found out about your magazine from Along the Lanes. So pleased to have found this tutorial as I have been wanting to try knitting a pair of socks.
maravilhoso
Do you have a video tutorial for the Campside shawl?
Not yet! What part of the pattern would be the most useful to have a tutorial for?
