I’d recommend watching The Knitty Stew. She is a flight attendant on a Canadian airline and she podcasts at her layover stops about her knitting and her locations.
I have been a dedicated Fruity Knitting fan since they first started and have been with Andrea and Andrew through the challenging situation of losing Andrew to brain cancer and having their daughter, Madeline, take her father's place. They do high quality interviews with knitters and makers from around the world including famous folks such as Kaffe Fassett and Marie Wallin. Andrea is an expert color work knitter and she has introduced me to many designers and patterns. Their UA-cam channel is their full time job, and they don't take sponsorships, thereby making their programming objective and clear. They do always make a plug for their Patreon account, and that's only fair since that's their main income source. If you haven't taken in a Fruity Knitting episode, there are more than 100 to choose from. Enjoy!
Roxanne RIchardson’s Casual Friday podcast is one of the highlights of my week. She usually starts with “tidbits” which are knitting/fiber related items of interest - could be artwork, a video or podcast, an article or webinar on topic. Then she talks about her projects. The awesome thing about Roxanne is her deep understanding of how knitting works. Her explanations help me understand what might be causing a problem and how to fix it, also how to redesign something if I want to. I also love Arne & Carlos and Andrea Mowry’s video podcasts.
YES, I love Roxanne! She is brilliant, and her deep understanding /analytical approach to knitting has definitely helped me improve my own technique. She's a gem.
Roxanne Richardson is my number 1 favorite podcaster and online knitting teacher. Her podcasts, Casual Friday, are on Fridays and her Technique Tuesdays are on Tuesdays, lol. She is fascinating. As a certified Master Hand Knitter, she brings a wealth of knowledge to both of her videos. She finds the most interesting tidbits as she calls them. She recently mentioned you Tayler on an episode of her podcast. Suzanne Bryan is also great but she focuses on technique videos mostly with the occasional interview with various knitters. She too is a certified Master Hand Knitter. Thank you for your suggestions b
I've recently discovered Knit with Kim and Jonna and they are such nice people with a very warm and inviting podcast. I definitely will be watching more!
I can’t believe Inga from Knitting Traditions wasn’t there! Love Young Folk knits, The Creabea, Penrose Knits and our Aussie girl Ally -Fiberbound as well as Kel Knits.
I love watching Staci Perry at Very Pink Knits. She has wonderful instructional tutorials. She also has a laid back (audio only) podcast where she chats and addresses listener submitted questions.
Absolutely! Honestly, Fruity Knitting should have been included and I must have just spaced it. I LOVE Andrea and her daughter (and I miss Andrew) so much. Such a well-put together podcast.
I was expecting Fruity knitting in the list as well. However, I was also thinking that Fruity knitting has a different kind of production. It's a complete magazine in my opinion. I love Andrea and missing Andrew as well
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS actually, I am pretty sure you introduced me to them, and I have since binged all episodes. You were the first knitting podcast I watched, theirs was the second :)
I love to watch Cozy Up Knits, they are 4 sisters from Northern Alberta, Canada. Their podcast is the one I consistently go back to. They use hand dyed yarns as well as cost effective yarns, which makes me happy 😊 They are positive, keep politics out of it, and provide inspiration without judgement
Oh my gosh 🥰 Hi Tayler 👋🏿 Thank you so much for including my little podcast! Some other podcasts I watch whenever a new video pops up: Mouse’s Makes, Amy Palko, Ruth Loves To Knit, Mistakes Were Made, Youngfolk Knits :)
The knitty stew is fabulous. Also the CreaBea podcast. She talks about her knitting and the process of designing, doesn’t take herself too seriously and just donated the proceeds from November for a new pattern to the fistula foundation. I also enjoy the knitting traditions podcast. Inga is in Norway and includes beautiful footage of her locale.
I'm a big fan of Engineering Knits, Retro Claude, and Jillian Eve, they're historical fiber crafters with a broad range of periods they work with. But lately I've been watching a lot of Little Drops of Wonderful and We Grow Wild, We Grow Wild is out of Spain I believe and her videos are so rustic and lovely. And Little Drops of Wonderful has such a fun personality and it really shows in her videos and that makes the videos so entertaining.
I came to the comments to also recommend the Knitty Stew - she gives such beautiful commentary/information/history about whatever place she is laid over (?) in as a flight attendant…. She is just lovely and her knits and travels are a visual feast :)@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS
I've come to adore a group of English podcasters who occasionally pop up on one another's channels, and all are hilarious: Bakery Bears, Little Drops of Wonderful, Tales from Cuckoo Land, Stitched by Mrs. D, Back to Blighty. I don't even care much what they're knitting; just like spending time with them! Would also say that Bakery Bears, Fruity Knitting, and Arne and Carlos are on a whole other level of well-produced content that includes so much more than knitting.
They’re the select group of podcasts I watch too, including the Cherry Heart podcast which is the first one I ever watched and who ultimately led me to all the others. They’re all doing vlogmas at the minute too, which is just bringing so much extra joy to my day and knitting/crochet time. They’re all so good!
This means so much Jessica. I am so happy to know that and I truly love every moment I get to spend with you all. This channel means so much to me because of the folks that show up.
I don’t think anyone has mentioned fiberchats. Most of the episodes are interviews with designers, fiberartists who aren’t necessarily designers who sell patterns, and other podcasters, but Irina also shares her own knits. She had a special series interviewing people participating in the 2022 Stephen West MKAL. She interviewed two of my favorite young fiber artists - Eric Speer and Alexandria Masse (the latter recommended by me because I love her work and she is Canadian like me). Also, Rox Knits (Roxanne Richardson) is great for history of knitting and technical advice. Her current project is investigating antique/vintage sock patterns with a focus on heel construction. I’m new to your channel and am really enjoying it. I made a pair of Fire Pit Mitts from some leftover yarn and love them!
I found a lot of podcasts during lockdown. I think yours and Needles at the Ready were the first ones that I watched. I love Chevas "Chevyrell", Martyn "Knit365 Blog", Amy Palko "The Meaningful Stitch", Inga "Knitting Traditions", Michael "Piece for Peace Podcast", and Alex "The Serenity Knitting Society". There are so many more that I watch. I don't have friends that knit. When I watch a podcast, I feel like I have a friend over and we're hanging out working on WIPS.
I have to add more! Lærka from Fiber Tales, Jana from Finnish Knitting Stories and Inga from Knitting Traditions, all three are just lovely podcasters. THEN there is Alexandrasgarn she is a new podcaster trying to find her style and she is an amazing knitter for such a young lady. Hey Brownberry is another great one. WOW, I think I just figured out why I have no time in my day! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I love The Gentle Knitter also. She mentioned on IG that she will be doing another podcast soon. I should check to see if she is doing Vlogmas this year!
I didn’t think I was under a rock, but all of these are new to me! What fun! I love watching other knitters while I knit: such great inspiration. Thank you, Tayler, for your enthusiasm and these great suggestions.
Haha what you said about coming for the knitting and staying for the person is exactly how I feel about your channel! Discovered you through another knitter's channel and now I'd watch anything you produce! Bring on that banana bread episode 😁😁 I also listen to knitting podcasts when I'm driving! Haha
Some of my favorites (and it isn't because we're the same age because I'm 72) are The Knitting Posse(3 friends in US), Knitter's League (4 friends in US), Cosy-up Knits (4 sisters in Canada), Unwind and Knit with Me (woman in New Zealand), A Friend to Knit with (woman in US) Forest City Knit Girls (2 sisters and a friend in Canada), Skiens of Dreams (a woman in US), Knits n Pieces (2 friends in Canada), Knit Ink (mother and daughter in US), Knitty McPurly (Woman in US), and Purled in Texas (3 Friends in US).
Thanks for the suggestions. I will check them out. Besides the superstars Arne and Carlos, and Fruity Knitting, which I am sure you must already know, a couple of podcasts you might like are Knitty Stew (Calgary stewardess who knits and vlogs about her layover places, yarn shops, her projects etc… ) and Fleece and Harmony vlogging from their woolen mill and farm in PEI. (Both Canadian vlogs).
Thank you. I'm a reasonably newish knitter and watch a lot of podcasts and there are lots of new ones there for me to check out. Thanks. I love Mel Makes Stuff because she's such an incredibly talented colourwork knitter that is beyond knowledgable about everything knitting, I'm generally awestruck by her podcasts. Just in case you haven't seen hers. Thanks again from the UK 👍
I know just what you mean Tayler - I came to your channel for the knitting/yarn and stay for you! I've saved this vid to my watch later so I can explore these new to me channels. Thanks!
I have to add more! Lærka from Fiber Tales, Jana from Finnish Knitting Stories and Inga from Knitting Traditions, all three are just lovely podcasters.
There’s a few I’ve not heard of which I’ll definitely add to my list - my top favs id like to share is Chevyrell - Kevin and Ray often mention her too, they have a good friendship I gather - she’s very irreverent - you get to meet her dog, her person, see the stuff room - so heart warming. I absolutely love knit together with Kim and Jonna - come for knit, stay for the people for sure there. They’ve been podcasting a year and their content is so interesting as they are such different personalities which shows in the knitting. And finally - we share needles, lovely pair of women who are very honest about their knits, when they’ve lost their mojo etc I live watching them 😊
am apparently living under all the rocks because I hadn't really heard of any of these (except you briefly mentioned A Friend to Knit With. I love her). I will definitely be checking some of these out. Some of my favorites are Knitty Natty, The Crazy Sock Lady, Arne and Carlos, By the Lakeside, and Andrea Mowry!
These are great suggestions and many that you mention here I do watch occasionally. I love Kay from CSL and Sandy from By the Lakeside is just a warm soul.
You just defined my reason I watch you so much. I watch your videos because of who you are as well as what you share. You are so nice to listen to and I love that you are not about making money but helping the knitting community.
I love the supportive atmosphere among knitting podcasters! I think knitters are in general nice people😊 I am new to watching knitting podcasts and loving it. Funny, I learned about you from a similar podcast about favorite podcasts by The Pine Cottage!
Some great suggestions! Some of my favorites are Knitting Traditions (inga), free your sheep ( Anastasia) & fiber tales (laerke). And...mine...if I do say so myself. 😂
I'm a bit late watching this, but I have recently found Kutovakika and have been binge watching her knitting podcasts. She has an amazing personality and she designs some of the most beautiful garments.
I've been watching Kristen for a few years! I totally understand what you mean by returning to the podcast because of the person! I think by tuning into their knitting/ crafting on a periodically you begin to feel like they are friends, inspiration or maybe just a source of laughter! They become that continual bright spot that gives us joy and let's face it we all need more joy in our lives! I also love following knitters that don't live in this country because I get to learn about their locations and their customs and that's a great bonus to me!!
Thank you so so much for enlightening me to knitting podcasts!! They have been all I’m watching lately and they have even inspired me to possibly make my own. This is awesome! I appreciate your energy and the content you put out 👏
Thanks for the recommendations - will check them out. I like Little Big Knits, Unwind and knit with me, Bobbles and Berries, knit 365, CreaBea, Finnish Knitting Stories, skeins of Dreams - among a long list😄.
I enjoy watching This Orange Couch by Kate V Knits! She is vegan so only knits with plant based yarns, which is interesting to me because I've only ever really used wool. All of the sweaters she knits are beautiful and she gives very thoughtful commentary about her modifications, the patterns, and her yarn choices. This was a really good episode! I don't think I've seen other podcasts do a round-up like this but I always wonder who everyone watches, so thank you for sharing your faves! I've been watching your channel since the beginning and you consistently make great videos, but this era of WNH is my favorite so far :)
Oooh that was fun. Thanks Tayler. I still go back to my OG knitting podcasters The Grocery Girls on a regular basis because Jodi makes me laugh - they're both pretty lovable. Your podcasts have so much great content and your videography is on point!
My personal favorites are, Anna Knitter, Sewrayme UK, Knit Together with Kim & Jonna, Chelsea Yarns, Tales from Cuckoo Land, Fruit Knitting, Knit, Sip, Happy, This Little Wonderful Life, Sweet Georgia, Tailoress Studio, Fiber Tales, A Wooden Nest, The Gentle Knitter ~ although not all of them are doing Vlogmas this year, many are and they're great! 🎄💖 Sorry, for not including the URLs (Uniform Resource Locator) for each one, as that would have been taxing and a bit overwhelming here in a post. 🤗
akaNoraKnits she's is new, she's so darn talented and entertaining and she just started knitting, when I say her laughing is contagious, I mean it and her little knit animations are just adorbs.
For people who want to learn... As a new knitter I enjoy these channels.. NimbleNeedles Roxanne Richardson VeryPink Knits Knitting with Suzanne Bryan I love to learn about Knitting.. I personally don't love overly chatty podcasts. I know it's the subject of this video sorry lol. But I'm trying to get used to chatter so here I am haha. Thanks for the content :) P.s I love Fruity Knitting. Especially the older ones..
Great suggestions. And I know what you mean about the chatty podcasts, but I've come to learn that I enjoy them much more when I genuinely like the podcaster(s). However, ones that keep it relatively tight to the point and not too long will capture my attention initially. And yes, this is a "ramble" video, but I endeavor to keep them to the point and less than 30 minutes for those reasons. 😉
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS kind of you to respond. Sorry if I insulted you. I didn't mean to. I'm subbed to your channel because I enjoy what you have to say 😉. Like you said you keep them short and sweet.
Thank you for these suggestions, I’ll definitely check them out, I would add Finnish Knitting Stories and Fiber Tales, I love both of these talented knitters
Ooh! This was fun! Also check out Les Garçons. They are fun to listen to, knit beautifully, including publishing patterns and dying yarns. I will definitely check out some that you recommended!
I love many of the podcasts you mentioned. I would definitely add Youngfolk Knits with Kaci Apple, Knit Together with Kim and Jonna, The Grocery Girls (two of the most generous, caring and advocates for the marginalized of anyone I know.), Knotty Knit Wits (again, very generous and caring). Every once in awhile I hear catty remarks about some podcasters that curse and are a bit crass but they are still faves of mine because they are just being real and we need real. And of course you will always be in my top 5 faves Tayler❤️❤️❤️ Ooooohhhhhh and It Is Sarah (English version), just such a sweet charming personality!!!
Thank you for putting this list together! I am a new knitter (less than 6 months) and have been looking for knitting channels to watch along with my crochet channels.
I'm a bit late to the party, but thanks for your recommendations! I'm always looking for new knitting podcasts to get into, because (very understandably!) especially smaller podcasts often have quite some time between new videos. My favorite podcasts include yours, The Harry Knit, handmade by florence, Well-Loved Knits, Lisa's Knit Club and this orange couch. The last one I can especially recommend if someone wants to learn more about knitting with plant fibers or knitting for hot weather. I'm also really loving SweetTeaNoShade! I just found it recently and I'm trying to watch it from the beginning, they (Scott & John) started 5 years ago when they had just started knitting and they have over 70 episodes by now!
Thank you for all your suggestions! I was actually searching for new knitting podcasts. My favourite are Kutovakika from Finland and KnittyNatty from USA.
I'm glad to see Daki, Wool and the Forest on your list! She is lovely. She also did a video last year where she's cooking/canning a Sri Lankan dish and it was so inspiring! Youngfolk Knits deserves some love too. She also brings a lot of love for her rural home in the Ozarks and lovely videography.
All these knit blogs were new to me! I think I may have seen a couple as "you might be interested in this", but had not clicked. My suggestions: Arne & Carlos--adorable Norwegian knitwear designers. Kate at The Last Homely House (yes, a Tolkein reference) in England. Fruity Knitting--90 minute videos, but so well done and informative--it starts with Andrew and Andrea, then she becomes widowed and now her daughter blogs with her. And now I watch you too!
Thank you for these suggestions Jennifer. And I LOVE Fruity Knitting. I failed to mention them here, but they are truly a favorite to watch. It's a tragedy about Andrew, but I feel like their daughter is doing such a wonderful job carrying on his legacy.
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS Agree so much about Andrew and love that their daughter is picking up where he had to leave off. I wish I had more hours in the day to watch and knit! Now some of your suggestions are coming up in my feed. 😄
I subscribed to a few new ones you mentioned, thanks, they look really good. I do binge on knitting pod cast, I have nothing else to do! 😊Off the top of my head, watch It’s a Sarah. She records 2 videos a week, one in Dutch and one in English. She’s so delightful and so funny! And We grow Wild. She lives in Italy and she is also a delight! Both women are so natural. Knitting the Stash, Melissa is a great teacher, she’s very knowledge about garment construction and her husband is funny! I almost forgot 2 of my favorites! Knit Ink, mother/daughter, it’s about them. And their knits. Then, Fruity Knitting, talk about an amazing knitter!! She is also super knowledgeable in great detail. Her story will bring tears to your eyes.❤
Youngfolk knits has been sooo great to watch and one of my favorites is the Grocery Girls, they go live but then save the video for later, its long but I just enjoy watching these two sisters talk about knitting and promote other yarn dyers, shops and patterns.
I love Skip Slip Ginge!! My other favorites (besides Kevin and Ray of course) is the Love in Stitches podcast, Knitting Traditions, and the Knotty Knitwits.
Nice list! I’ll have to check them out. I would also HIGHLY recommend Fiber Trek. I think you will love her coziness and quality. Another I’m enjoying is Hey Brownberry. She is calm and has a wonderful way of teaching.
I have just recently been seeking out knitting vlogs and podcasts that jive with me. I will definitely check these out. I see commenters also have some great suggestions. I have one I found that’s new and I really enjoyed. So much so I watch all her episodes/ videos yesterday. Lol Maressa Made. She just started out and I love her insights but mostly I love her personality. It hits right for my ND brain.
Taylor, I agree...I go for the knitting and stay for the person. That's what happened to me with your channel and you . I, too, love Kevin and Ray, so warm and inviting. Thank you for all your videos. You inspire me to take on challenges with my knitting. Now, with that, still have a phobia of "socks"....LOL
I, too, must agree with what Jessica Stuppy Knits said: "You bring a lot of happiness to a lot of people." This is so true. I recently found Jack of Slip Slip Ginge and his partner Jen of Chonky Stitches. I like their energy. And yes, we need more "Liz"... hahaha... Thank you, Tayler! Have a wonderful rest of your day. 🙂
I’m new to your podcast this week. I have watched several and have enjoyed all I’ve seen. I especially appreciate this one as I have a favorite crochet podcaster that I never miss but have struggled finding a knitting podcast to follow. I have subscribed to yours and will check out the ones you have suggested. I laughed at your notions bag episode when you were describing stitch counters and said “it not only has a button, it has a shiny button”🤣. Having 5 sons and 12 grandchildren I could totally relate🤣. I love your bubbly personality. Most of the knitting podcasts I have checked out were just kind of genetic and boring. Thank you and I look forward to seeing more of your podcasts!💗🧶
I love Wool and the Forest; Daki is a gem and her essence is calming. I also love Maressa Made because she is a hoot (much like you), just full of energy and enthusiasm and irreverence... she's super fun. Another podcast I like very much is Hey Brown Betty because she is a lovely soul, and her take on knitting, handwork, yarns, etc is inspirational and inclusive. Knitting a Good Yarn is another good one. The two ladies on that one have a sweet relationship/chemistry, and their conversations about knitting are interesting and informative. (And I agree: both Jack and Sarah are interesting personalities. I totally agree with you on the point you made about watching because of the people as much as for the knitting. Definitely why I watch you all the time. And yes, I would watch you if you spent a whole episode talking about recipes... I love - and make - banana bread, too ❤😄)
Thanks for the suggestions, will definitely check them out. Some podcasts I recently discovered and am enjoying a LOT is - The Strikkechick: based in Norway, she is a new pattern designer as well. I love how she talks about her design process and yarn choices. While she is a relatively newer knitter too, she is just so knowledgeable! She tends to do a lot of colourwork and heavily textured knits. - High Fiber Knits: what I love most about her is the fact that she is so intentional with her pattern and yarn choices and it also doesn't hurt that she has a super soothing voice. She tends to gravitate towards neutrals and wardrobe stables with a twist and I aspire to be more like her ito intentionality. Jessica MacDonald: another knitwear designer, I just love listening to her talk about her design process, her attention to detail is simply phenomenal. She tends to do a lot of warm earthy tones and textures as well as simple colourwork.
Being a devoted sweater knitter … love, love, love …. Knit Together with Kim and Jonna - Little Big Knits - A Friend to Knit with - Wool and Wine - Cady jax Knits - KnitsnPieces - Fleece and Harmony - Grocery Girls - Fruity Knitting is in a League of its’ own!
Thank you so much for introducing new podcasts to watch! I do watch Needles at the Ready and agree that Kevin and Ray are not to be missed! They have provided much laughter as well as great projects to see 😊. I love your podcast, too!!!
I’d recommend watching The Knitty Stew. She is a flight attendant on a Canadian airline and she podcasts at her layover stops about her knitting and her locations.
I agree.
I was going to comment about her podcast, too.
Love her. Very Canadian but also super relatable with beautiful calm energy.
One of my favorites!
@@Beckythroughtheblock LOVE Leanne!! Definitely one of my favs!
I have been a dedicated Fruity Knitting fan since they first started and have been with Andrea and Andrew through the challenging situation of losing Andrew to brain cancer and having their daughter, Madeline, take her father's place. They do high quality interviews with knitters and makers from around the world including famous folks such as Kaffe Fassett and Marie Wallin. Andrea is an expert color work knitter and she has introduced me to many designers and patterns. Their UA-cam channel is their full time job, and they don't take sponsorships, thereby making their programming objective and clear.

Try Knit With Kim and Jonna. They're very different in their approach to knitting so balance each other out and laugh throughout the podcast.
I've recently discovered Knit with Kim and Jonna and they are such nice people with a very warm and inviting podcast. I definitely will be watching more!
Love Knitting with Kim and Jonna….very easy going style.
oh yes!!!!
Thank you!! 🥰
I like them too.

I love watching Staci Perry at Very Pink Knits. She has wonderful instructional tutorials. She also has a laid back (audio only) podcast where she chats and addresses listener submitted questions.
I Definitely enjoy youngfolk knits
Check out Nimble Needles and knitty Natty and Barbara Benson if you get the chance. They are awesome!
Youngfolk knits is a terrific podcast - her videography is superb.
I just love Kaci!
Absolutely agree! She is lovely and one of my faves!
❤❤❤❤I love Kaci! 🎉❤
She is absolutely amazing, love her knits and her music and photography.
my absolute go to: fruity knitting
Absolutely! Honestly, Fruity Knitting should have been included and I must have just spaced it. I LOVE Andrea and her daughter (and I miss Andrew) so much. Such a well-put together podcast.

@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS actually, I am pretty sure you introduced me to them, and I have since binged all episodes. You were the first knitting podcast I watched, theirs was the second :)

Knitting Tradition, Inga is a Dr from Norway and a very prolific knitter
I love to watch Cozy Up Knits, they are 4 sisters from Northern Alberta, Canada. Their podcast is the one I consistently go back to. They use hand dyed yarns as well as cost effective yarns, which makes me happy 😊 They are positive, keep politics out of it, and provide inspiration without judgement

The Knitty Stew is awesome and I’d think you would enjoy watching. Thanks for the suggestions for other podcasts to watch
Thank you for suggesting the Knitty Stew. Her concept is so unique and interesting. I need to give it a watch!

Bakery bears are brilliant!
I recommend Finnish Knitting Stories, Jana is so down to earth and welcoming.
Recommend Fruity Knitting also - just wonderful knitting and additional content - all things fiber related
You are an enabler. This was a dangerous video. Thank you so much :)
Taylor you bring a lot of happiness to a lot of people.
This means so much Jessica. I am so happy to know that and I truly love every moment I get to spend with you all. This channel means so much to me because of the folks that show up.
I love the Grocery Girls and the Bakery Bears! Also Finnish Knitting Stories is precious!!
Grocery Girls go without saying in my book, for sure. Love those ladies.
They are great but I don’t have that kind of time to watch a 2 hour podcast.
I recommend Amy Palko, Black Spruce, Cozy Meadow, Knit Ink and Finnish Knitting Stories.
Fruity Knitting is my all time favorite 😍
Such a great one! I need to do a part two of this video so I remember to include them!

Wow, thank you. That means way more than you know. ❤️
Adding very new Stitches & Starlight to the must watch list. Tazia spins as well as knits and I am loving listening to her talk fiber.
I like knitting traditions (or traditional knitter?)…she is a young doctor in Norway, does amazing knits, and gorgeous scenery in Norway!
Emma’s Rufus is actually a Bedlington whippet. ☺️. Love her podcast! Also love Nicole’s “The Gentle Knitter” podcast! Her aesthetic is 👌👌👌
I love The Gentle Knitter also. She mentioned on IG that she will be doing another podcast soon. I should check to see if she is doing Vlogmas this year!
I love Cori Eichelberger ay IROC knits. I too come for the knitting content, but enjoy her recipes, book reviews etc. Thanks for your recommendations.
I didn’t think I was under a rock, but all of these are new to me! What fun! I love watching other knitters while I knit: such great inspiration. Thank you, Tayler, for your enthusiasm and these great suggestions.
I actually feel that the expression Living under the rock is not a very nice one... 😢
Haha what you said about coming for the knitting and staying for the person is exactly how I feel about your channel! Discovered you through another knitter's channel and now I'd watch anything you produce! Bring on that banana bread episode 😁😁 I also listen to knitting podcasts when I'm driving! Haha
This makes my day Kacy. Thank you!
My #1 favorite podcast Young Folks Knits. never miss it
Love Kaci!
I always love watching Cias Bod, from Sweden. Ruth Loves to Knit is another fave.
Some of my favorites (and it isn't because we're the same age because I'm 72) are The Knitting Posse(3 friends in US), Knitter's League (4 friends in US), Cosy-up Knits (4 sisters in Canada), Unwind and Knit with Me (woman in New Zealand), A Friend to Knit with (woman in US) Forest City Knit Girls (2 sisters and a friend in Canada), Skiens of Dreams (a woman in US), Knits n Pieces (2 friends in Canada), Knit Ink (mother and daughter in US), Knitty McPurly (Woman in US), and Purled in Texas (3 Friends in US).
These are great suggestions! Thank you Jack.
Thanks for the suggestions. I will check them out. Besides the superstars Arne and Carlos, and Fruity Knitting, which I am sure you must already know, a couple of podcasts you might like are Knitty Stew (Calgary stewardess who knits and vlogs about her layover places, yarn shops, her projects etc… ) and Fleece and Harmony vlogging from their woolen mill and farm in PEI. (Both Canadian vlogs).
Thank you. I'm a reasonably newish knitter and watch a lot of podcasts and there are lots of new ones there for me to check out. Thanks. I love Mel Makes Stuff because she's such an incredibly talented colourwork knitter that is beyond knowledgable about everything knitting, I'm generally awestruck by her podcasts. Just in case you haven't seen hers. Thanks again from the UK 👍
Mel Makes Stuff is awesome.
Favorites; Cabin boys knit, Ruth loves to knit, Knit 365, The Knitty Stew, The black sheep knitted.
I know just what you mean Tayler - I came to your channel for the knitting/yarn and stay for you! I've saved this vid to my watch later so I can explore these new to me channels. Thanks!
Gosh, that means a lot Denise! Thank you. ❤️
I have to add more! Lærka from Fiber Tales, Jana from Finnish Knitting Stories and Inga from Knitting Traditions, all three are just lovely podcasters.
There’s a few I’ve not heard of which I’ll definitely add to my list - my top favs id like to share is Chevyrell - Kevin and Ray often mention her too, they have a good friendship I gather - she’s very irreverent - you get to meet her dog, her person, see the stuff room - so heart warming.
I absolutely love knit together with Kim and Jonna - come for knit, stay for the people for sure there. They’ve been podcasting a year and their content is so interesting as they are such different personalities which shows in the knitting.
And finally - we share needles, lovely pair of women who are very honest about their knits, when they’ve lost their mojo etc I live watching them 😊
Ditto kills me when he messes with that David Bowie pillow.
Oh yes, I love Chevyrell and We Share Needles!
Thank you!! 🥰
Jen Geigley Knits!!! Great podcast- stay for the person and her design aesthetic!
am apparently living under all the rocks because I hadn't really heard of any of these (except you briefly mentioned A Friend to Knit With. I love her). I will definitely be checking some of these out. Some of my favorites are Knitty Natty, The Crazy Sock Lady, Arne and Carlos, By the Lakeside, and Andrea Mowry!
These are great suggestions and many that you mention here I do watch occasionally. I love Kay from CSL and Sandy from By the Lakeside is just a warm soul.
You just defined my reason I watch you so much. I watch your videos because of who you are as well as what you share. You are so nice to listen to and I love that you are not about making money but helping the knitting community.
This means a lot Michelle. Thank you. ❤️
I love the supportive atmosphere among knitting podcasters! I think knitters are in general nice people😊 I am new to watching knitting podcasts and loving it. Funny, I learned about you from a similar podcast about favorite podcasts by The Pine Cottage!
Knitting Traditions...I love watching all the items Inga makes and she has a great personality!
Yes! Inga is lovely!
Some great suggestions! Some of my favorites are Knitting Traditions (inga), free your sheep ( Anastasia) & fiber tales (laerke). And...mine...if I do say so myself. 😂
My suggestion is Fiber Tales. Lærke is a Danish knitwear designer, and I love her videos
I'm a bit late watching this, but I have recently found Kutovakika and have been binge watching her knitting podcasts. She has an amazing personality and she designs some of the most beautiful garments.
I've been watching Kristen for a few years! I totally understand what you mean by returning to the podcast because of the person! I think by tuning into their knitting/ crafting on a periodically you begin to feel like they are friends, inspiration or maybe just a source of laughter! They become that continual bright spot that gives us joy and let's face it we all need more joy in our lives! I also love following knitters that don't live in this country because I get to learn about their locations and their customs and that's a great bonus to me!!
Yep. Everything you say here is EXACTLY how I feel. Exactly. Thank you Caroline.
"Fiber Tales" should be on this list :)
Thank you so so much for enlightening me to knitting podcasts!! They have been all I’m watching lately and they have even inspired me to possibly make my own. This is awesome! I appreciate your energy and the content you put out 👏
Youngfolkknit should check out her podcast too
Thanks for the recommendations - will check them out. I like Little Big Knits, Unwind and knit with me, Bobbles and Berries, knit 365, CreaBea, Finnish Knitting Stories, skeins of Dreams - among a long list😄.
I enjoy watching This Orange Couch by Kate V Knits! She is vegan so only knits with plant based yarns, which is interesting to me because I've only ever really used wool. All of the sweaters she knits are beautiful and she gives very thoughtful commentary about her modifications, the patterns, and her yarn choices.
This was a really good episode! I don't think I've seen other podcasts do a round-up like this but I always wonder who everyone watches, so thank you for sharing your faves!
I've been watching your channel since the beginning and you consistently make great videos, but this era of WNH is my favorite so far :)
Thank you for the suggestions I’ll be checking these out.
Oooh that was fun. Thanks Tayler. I still go back to my OG knitting podcasters The Grocery Girls on a regular basis because Jodi makes me laugh - they're both pretty lovable. Your podcasts have so much great content and your videography is on point!
My personal favorites are, Anna Knitter, Sewrayme UK, Knit Together with Kim & Jonna, Chelsea Yarns, Tales from Cuckoo Land, Fruit Knitting, Knit, Sip, Happy, This Little Wonderful Life, Sweet Georgia, Tailoress Studio, Fiber Tales, A Wooden Nest, The Gentle Knitter ~ although not all of them are doing Vlogmas this year, many are and they're great! 🎄💖
Sorry, for not including the URLs (Uniform Resource Locator) for each one, as that would have been taxing and a bit overwhelming here in a post. 🤗
akaNoraKnits she's is new, she's so darn talented and entertaining and she just started knitting, when I say her laughing is contagious, I mean it and her little knit animations are just adorbs.
For people who want to learn... As a new knitter I enjoy these channels..
NimbleNeedles
Roxanne Richardson
VeryPink Knits
Knitting with Suzanne Bryan
I love to learn about Knitting.. I personally don't love overly chatty podcasts.
I know it's the subject of this video sorry lol. But I'm trying to get used to chatter so here I am haha.
Thanks for the content :)
P.s I love Fruity Knitting. Especially the older ones..
Great suggestions. And I know what you mean about the chatty podcasts, but I've come to learn that I enjoy them much more when I genuinely like the podcaster(s). However, ones that keep it relatively tight to the point and not too long will capture my attention initially. And yes, this is a "ramble" video, but I endeavor to keep them to the point and less than 30 minutes for those reasons. 😉
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS kind of you to respond. Sorry if I insulted you. I didn't mean to. I'm subbed to your channel because I enjoy what you have to say 😉. Like you said you keep them short and sweet.
Thank you for these suggestions, I’ll definitely check them out, I would add Finnish Knitting Stories and Fiber Tales, I love both of these talented knitters
Ooh! This was fun! Also check out Les Garçons. They are fun to listen to, knit beautifully, including publishing patterns and dying yarns. I will definitely check out some that you recommended!
I love many of the podcasts you mentioned. I would definitely add Youngfolk Knits with Kaci Apple, Knit Together with Kim and Jonna, The Grocery Girls (two of the most generous, caring and advocates for the marginalized of anyone I know.), Knotty Knit Wits (again, very generous and caring). Every once in awhile I hear catty remarks about some podcasters that curse and are a bit crass but they are still faves of mine because they are just being real and we need real. And of course you will always be in my top 5 faves Tayler❤️❤️❤️ Ooooohhhhhh and It Is Sarah (English version), just such a sweet charming personality!!!
Some channels I love are Fiber Trek, The Whoolly Thistle, and Earthtones girl!
Thank you for putting this list together! I am a new knitter (less than 6 months) and have been looking for knitting channels to watch along with my crochet channels.
I'm a bit late to the party, but thanks for your recommendations! I'm always looking for new knitting podcasts to get into, because (very understandably!) especially smaller podcasts often have quite some time between new videos. My favorite podcasts include yours, The Harry Knit, handmade by florence, Well-Loved Knits, Lisa's Knit Club and this orange couch. The last one I can especially recommend if someone wants to learn more about knitting with plant fibers or knitting for hot weather. I'm also really loving SweetTeaNoShade! I just found it recently and I'm trying to watch it from the beginning, they (Scott & John) started 5 years ago when they had just started knitting and they have over 70 episodes by now!
So fun! Thanks for the recommendations. Love Youngfolk Knits, too!
My pleasure! And yes. Youngfolk Knits is another good one!
Stitched by mrs D is my new find and recommendation
Thank's for your great recommendations :)
Thank you !
Thank you for all your suggestions! I was actually searching for new knitting podcasts. My favourite are Kutovakika from Finland and KnittyNatty from USA.
Roxanne Richardson and Fruity Knitting are 2 I love.
Love the Grocery Girls and Earth tones Girl
YES. 100%.
I'm glad to see Daki, Wool and the Forest on your list! She is lovely. She also did a video last year where she's cooking/canning a Sri Lankan dish and it was so inspiring!
Youngfolk Knits deserves some love too. She also brings a lot of love for her rural home in the Ozarks and lovely videography.
All these knit blogs were new to me! I think I may have seen a couple as "you might be interested in this", but had not clicked. My suggestions: Arne & Carlos--adorable Norwegian knitwear designers.
Kate at The Last Homely House (yes, a Tolkein reference) in England. Fruity Knitting--90 minute videos, but so well done and informative--it starts with Andrew and Andrea, then she becomes widowed and now her daughter blogs with her. And now I watch you too!
Thank you for these suggestions Jennifer. And I LOVE Fruity Knitting. I failed to mention them here, but they are truly a favorite to watch. It's a tragedy about Andrew, but I feel like their daughter is doing such a wonderful job carrying on his legacy.
@@WOOLNEEDLESHANDS Agree so much about Andrew and love that their daughter is picking up where he had to leave off. I wish I had more hours in the day to watch and knit! Now some of your suggestions are coming up in my feed. 😄
I subscribed to a few new ones you mentioned, thanks, they look really good. I do binge on knitting pod cast, I have nothing else to do! 😊Off the top of my head, watch It’s a Sarah. She records 2 videos a week, one in Dutch and one in English. She’s so delightful and so funny! And We grow Wild. She lives in Italy and she is also a delight! Both women are so natural. Knitting the Stash, Melissa is a great teacher, she’s very knowledge about garment construction and her husband is funny! I almost forgot 2 of my favorites! Knit Ink, mother/daughter, it’s about them. And their knits. Then, Fruity Knitting, talk about an amazing knitter!! She is also super knowledgeable in great detail. Her story will bring tears to your eyes.❤
So chuffed to be on your list! So delighted and surprised! ❤
Oh Emma! It’s my pleasure. Your videos are a bright spot. Thank you for them! (And your yarn is beautiful. I have a few skeins and I cherish them.)
Youngfolk knits has been sooo great to watch and one of my favorites is the Grocery Girls, they go live but then save the video for later, its long but I just enjoy watching these two sisters talk about knitting and promote other yarn dyers, shops and patterns.
I love Skip Slip Ginge!! My other favorites (besides Kevin and Ray of course) is the Love in Stitches podcast, Knitting Traditions, and the Knotty Knitwits.
Nice list! I’ll have to check them out. I would also HIGHLY recommend Fiber Trek. I think you will love her coziness and quality. Another I’m enjoying is Hey Brownberry. She is calm and has a wonderful way of teaching.
You might like Finnish Knitting stories. A spinner, dyer and knitter. It's in English and Itvs very good.
I am late to the recomendation but I just found your podcast and am slowly catching up
Based on who you’re recommending, I think you’d love Laura of Penrose Knits!! Cozy vlogs, lots of knitting content, and beautiful edits!
Oh gosh, yes! I love her! I'm telling you, I could do a part 2 of this video. 😅
I have just recently been seeking out knitting vlogs and podcasts that jive with me. I will definitely check these out. I see commenters also have some great suggestions.
I have one I found that’s new and I really enjoyed. So much so I watch all her episodes/ videos yesterday. Lol
Maressa Made. She just started out and I love her insights but mostly I love her personality. It hits right for my ND brain.
Taylor, I agree...I go for the knitting and stay for the person. That's what happened to me with your channel and you . I, too, love Kevin and Ray, so warm and inviting. Thank you for all your videos. You inspire me to take on challenges with my knitting. Now, with that, still have a phobia of "socks"....LOL
This means so much to me Beverly. Thank you. Truly. ❤️
I, too, must agree with what Jessica Stuppy Knits said: "You bring a lot of happiness to a lot of people." This is so true. I recently found Jack of Slip Slip Ginge and his partner Jen of Chonky Stitches. I like their energy. And yes, we need more "Liz"... hahaha... Thank you, Tayler! Have a wonderful rest of your day. 🙂
Thank you Liz. This makes my day. ❤️
Wow - i live under a rock! Most of these are new to me. I’m so excited to watch. Thanks for sharing 😊
I’m new to your podcast this week. I have watched several and have enjoyed all I’ve seen. I especially appreciate this one as I have a favorite crochet podcaster that I never miss but have struggled finding a knitting podcast to follow. I have subscribed to yours and will check out the ones you have suggested. I laughed at your notions bag episode when you were describing stitch counters and said “it not only has a button, it has a shiny button”🤣. Having 5 sons and 12 grandchildren I could totally relate🤣. I love your bubbly personality. Most of the knitting podcasts I have checked out were just kind of genetic and boring. Thank you and I look forward to seeing more of your podcasts!💗🧶
Thanks for sharing! I really love Fleece and Harmony!
I love Wool and the Forest; Daki is a gem and her essence is calming. I also love Maressa Made because she is a hoot (much like you), just full of energy and enthusiasm and irreverence... she's super fun. Another podcast I like very much is Hey Brown Betty because she is a lovely soul, and her take on knitting, handwork, yarns, etc is inspirational and inclusive. Knitting a Good Yarn is another good one. The two ladies on that one have a sweet relationship/chemistry, and their conversations about knitting are interesting and informative. (And I agree: both Jack and Sarah are interesting personalities. I totally agree with you on the point you made about watching because of the people as much as for the knitting. Definitely why I watch you all the time. And yes, I would watch you if you spent a whole episode talking about recipes... I love - and make - banana bread, too ❤😄)
We love your podcasts
Thank you Valerie!
Thanks for the suggestions, will definitely check them out. Some podcasts I recently discovered and am enjoying a LOT is
- The Strikkechick: based in Norway, she is a new pattern designer as well. I love how she talks about her design process and yarn choices. While she is a relatively newer knitter too, she is just so knowledgeable! She tends to do a lot of colourwork and heavily textured knits.
- High Fiber Knits: what I love most about her is the fact that she is so intentional with her pattern and yarn choices and it also doesn't hurt that she has a super soothing voice. She tends to gravitate towards neutrals and wardrobe stables with a twist and I aspire to be more like her ito intentionality.
Jessica MacDonald: another knitwear designer, I just love listening to her talk about her design process, her attention to detail is simply phenomenal. She tends to do a lot of warm earthy tones and textures as well as simple colourwork.
@this orange couch for vegan knitters and just anyone really because she is lovely and a gifted knitter. And @night sky knitting is adorable!
I've recently discovered Knitting With Eve and that's quickly become one of my other go-tos
Being a devoted sweater knitter … love, love, love …. Knit Together with Kim and Jonna - Little Big Knits - A Friend to Knit with - Wool and Wine - Cady jax Knits - KnitsnPieces - Fleece and Harmony - Grocery Girls - Fruity Knitting is in a League of its’ own!
I think you would like Hundred Acre Wool I enjoy all of your recommendations and also Grocery Girls
Thank you so much for introducing new podcasts to watch! I do watch Needles at the Ready and agree that Kevin and Ray are not to be missed! They have provided much laughter as well as great projects to see 😊. I love your podcast, too!!!
