In this episode I’ll talk to Lorajean Kelley, Color-Queen of Knitted Wit. We talk activism, balancing local with internet-based life, and silly colorway names. Then I’ll talk to Amy King about the Targhee Sheep Breed and the fleece that comes from it.

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.
