Episode 107 | Indigodragonfly

This episode introduces Kim McBrien Evans, Minionster, Snarkitect, and Evil Master Genius of Indigodragonfly Designs. Kim’s color sense is surpassed only by her wit and sense of humor.  We also talk to Beth Smith about how to spin a yarn that mitigates the challenges of superwash wool.

Episode 106 | Spirit Trail Fiberworks

In this episode I talk with Jennifer Tepper Heverley, owner and sole dyer of Spirit Trail Fiberworks. Spirit Trail focuses on luxury fibers, like merino, cashmere, silk, and some really great breed specific yarns in an extensive range of bases. We also talk to Deb Robson about Polwarth wool from Tarndwarncoort.

I hope you all had a great holiday season and a wonderful new year. I’ve got my goals and intentions set for 2018, and this podcast is prominently featured in that list. I’ve really been enjoying the work and would love it if it would help support me in the coming year. The podcast requires a lot of time and equipment, as well as hosting fees, and the like. My experts have been generous with their time and knowledge as favors to me, but I would like in this new year to be able to pay them for that time and knowledge.
