I was invited to be a guest on Show and Tell Knitting, a wonderful video podcast about vintage knitwear (and accessories, vintage styling, and more) produced and hosted by billietoy. Her guests are all amazing knitters who share their favourite or most noteworthy projects and explain their process and the stories behind them.
Billie and most of the other guests focus more on 1930s to 1950s styles in their knitting and collecting, so I believe I was her first guest with a 1960s collection. We had a wonderful chat about 1960s fashion and history, I showed some projects and some vintage magazines and explained a crazy local tradition in my town that you probably won’t find listed in a tourist guide. (Hint: it involves kale, cold weather and lots of alcohol.)
The link will go live this Saturday, November 20th, 2021, at 17:00 GMT (18:00 in western Europe, 9:00 US west coast, 12:00 noon US east coast, check your time zone to make sure…). There will be a live chat at the premiere if you want to check in and say hi.
Here’s the link as a link, as well: Show & Tell Knitting, ep. 64.
