Show and Tell knitting podcast focuses on vintage (and vintage-inspired) hand knit garments, how to make them and how to accessorize them. Your host, Billie ("billietoy"), uses costume jewelry, hats, handbags, gloves and scarves to style each sweater.
Some episodes include guest knitters from around the world who will showcase their personal collections. Each will share selections from their portfolio of retro garments, from cardigan sweaters to jumpers / pullovers to coats and jackets.
Whether you have a passion for vintage 1940s style, or want to follow me on my knitting (and travel) escapades, each episode will bring a new adventure. You're likely to see patterns or yarns that will inspire you, particularly if you love vintage fashion. - Навчання та стиль
Thanks both, really interesting. One day I will knit that Selbu coat! The yoke jersey suits you Billie.
Billie, I'm sure you have plenty of interviews lined up, but have you considered asking if someone from the Sirdar heritage archive in the UK would like to talk about it? They have thousands of vintage patterns available, arranged by decade. Also maybe someone from the knitting guild collection in the UK?
Great tips! Thanks!
Great Episode! Loved the historical info. Participated in Ellie's mitten classes. I knit 6 of the patterns. Great patterns!
Thanks! 6 pairs of Mitts! Kudos to you!
Eli is amazing! I have her Festive Yoke sweater pattern to knit up next and after seeing this video I'm thinking of doing it in black and white. 😊
I love black and white! (In movies, too!)
Great info about her yoke construction design.
As I said, that's brilliance from a PhD!
@@ShowandTellknitting truly! I am glad I watched the whole interview
@@judyfick2967 Good on you! It pays to stay til the end....you just never know!
