    I don’t know how to knit but want to try to learn after the first of the year. I do crochet though. I love tarn talk. Good luck with your podcasts. I watch Nordic stitches. She knits as well and does beautiful work. I’ve enjoyed the video.👍💖

    loved your podcast - and you're local to me. I am a knitter and would love to learn to spin and dye. Need to find a class fairly local though. I really enjoyed your podcast and hope you go from strength to strength. Your voice is lovely and clear. Well done!

    love this inaugural episode! you have a charming style, and I'm very much looking forward to more. I'm so enthused by your ethos for your business. I think exploring the different sheep breeds for what they can offer is high up on my list to learn more about! very excited to hear you mention Aidan, he is a favorite maker & podcaster. And VERY excited to see you making a Weekender sweater! I'm hosting a little KAL for that sweater right now, can't wait to see how that gorgeous wool works up for the pattern :) cheers!

    • @woollymammothfibres
      @woollymammothfibres  6 років тому

      Aidan is fab! Such an interesting podcaster and maker. The Uist Wool for that sweater has worked up a dream- I'm at the sleeves now (I filmed this a while ago!) and I'm really loving how they work together.

  • @melodyoknits8417
    @melodyoknits8417 5 років тому

    Wonderful podcast! I don't know if it's useful, but last summer I did a very concentrated dye bath of avocado pits and skins, and added baking soda in the final dip - it yielded a very rich, deep browny pink.

    I love your hair stick. Your hair looks so good up like that. I love a good hair updo. Grace from Babbles Travels suggested I come watch because I asked her about her hair stick. I'm so glad I listened. You did great. I can't wait to see more. :)

    Thank you for a cosy, nice first episode of your podcast. So right up my "love for yarn- and knitting-alley" :). Looking forward to the next episode. I loved to hear your story about having your own yarn made. Back to basic, I like that. I knit (a lot) and I also plant dye. My closest neighbours are over hundred sheep, so yes, I live rural :). I´m from the woolen country Norway. Wool has been - and still is - very important for us to keep us from freezing. Nothing beats this fabric/fiber. I´ve seen your halloween themed skeins on your instagram stories lately. I fell in love. I haven't bought any varigated/speckled yarns yet - but wow - some of those skeins I really would like to have. I´ll try to get hold of some in your shop update.

    • @woollymammothfibres
      @woollymammothfibres  6 років тому

      Hi Nina! So glad you like it- I think it will get cosier as the Winter comes in :) I love all your thoughts about wool and warmth- so so true! I hope you manage to get a skein of the Halloween Yarn and that you LOVE it!!!

    Hello Emma! I absolutely loved your podcast! Such beautiful aesthetic and content. I am also knitting the weekender, and I think you will love the tubular cast on! It produces such a polished edge.

    • @woollymammothfibres
      @woollymammothfibres  6 років тому

      Thanks for watching! Ohh that's fun. I've actually just got the sleeves to go now- the cast on was fine, just a bit slow because I wasn't used to it! But it does produce a nice effect!

    • @woollymammothfibres
      @woollymammothfibres  6 років тому

      I definitely will!! I hear people use dental floss? I usually use a piece of yarn but that sometimes makes it hard to get the stitches on again after a mistake.

    Really interested in how you continue to develop your non nylon sock base. Have you got any Romney or Southdown local to you? Apparently they are great for non felting socks. Also I’m rather confused about the 2ply v 3ply thing as you are right to say 3ply would wear better. Anyway, here’s a link to a great ongoing experiment into handspun socks from specific sheep breeds you may find interesting - knitbettersocks.blogspot.com/p/sock-fiber-review.html
